Emmys Millie Bobby Brown Stranger things

MILLIE BOBBY BROWN IS NO STRANGER TO SUCCESS

Thirteen can be an incredibly awkward age – but you’d never know it with Stanger Things nominee Millie Bobby Brown at the Emmys. She is sailing through the geeky self-conscious years with flying colors. Easily one of the Best Dressed at the award show, Millie wore a ballerina inspired pouffy dress that is simple and sweet. It’s not surprising that’s she’s signed with a modeling agency already. Millie is currently filming her first feature – Godzilla: King of the Monsters. Not bad for thirteen.

A Handmaid's Tale Elizabeth Moss Emmys Leah Remini Scientology

ELIZABETH MOSS MIGHT BE THE SMARTEST SCIENTOLOGIST OF THEM ALL

Elizabeth Moss has managed to do what no other Scientologist/actor has been able to achieve – a Best Acting award for A Handmaid’s Tale. This puts her at the top of the heap of celebrity Scientologists, but she’s not talking about it. And she’s not calling anyone a liar. Not only does Moss avoid the subject of Scientology altogether, but she did carefully comment that it “hasn’t impacted her success in Hollywood.” That means people don’t dislike her because of her beliefs, but it also means she doesn’t credit Scientology for HELPING her achieve success. Certainly she is very aware that Leah Remini ALSO won an Emmy for her anti-Scientology series that is revealing the sinister elements that might eventually take down the “church.” Suddenly Leah Remini and Elizabeth Moss are looking like potential enemies. Or maybe not.

Backseat Christian Bale Weight

CHRISTIAN BALE IS A WHOLE NEW PERSON

We’re betting Christian Bale, 43, can go just about anywhere these days without being recognized since he gained all that weight to play the most powerful Vice President in American history (who knew?) Dick Cheney. The bleached eyebrows also change his appearance. Cheney was probably flattered when he heard the handsome Bale was set to play him in “Backseat” – at least until all the discussion about weight gain. Above, Christian took his cute son Joseph to play in a Brentwood park.

Jada Pinkett Smith Leah Remini Scientology

TOM CRUISE, JADA PINKETT, ETC: THE WAY THEY WERE

Back in 2007, Tom Cruise, his wife Katie Holmes, Victoria and David Beckham, and Jada Pinkett and her husband Will Smith were very chummy at a MOCA event in Los Angeles. Recently Leah Remini declared that Jada Pinkett was a Scientologist in those days, and still IS. We can imagine Tom and Jada working frantically to pull the Beckhams into their cult. Will Smith has always remained neutral, and we know what happened to Katie. Leah has pointed out that Jada and Will opened a Scientology school that taught the philosophy of L Ron Hubbard. Suri Cruise went there for a short time, and Jada’s kids too (what kind of education do they have?) Now the school is closed. And Jada says Leah is “a liar.” Sounds like a true Scientologist speaking, doesn’t it?

Alec Baldwin Donald Trump Emmys Family Saturday Night Live

ALEC BALDWIN HOPES TO IMPRESS HIS FAMILY WITH AN EMMY

It’s complicated when Alec Baldwin and his family come to Beverly Hills. Alec, 59, took his wife Hilaria, 33, and their three kids, Carmen, Leonardo, and Rafael, along with two strollers and two nannies, out for lunch and a walk. Alec is nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Emmy for his take-off of Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live. The whole family came to LA to cheer him on and he and Hilaria will hit a few pre-Emmy parties. Alec’s “Trump” character is already booked to open the new season of SNL.

John Mellencamp Meg Ryan Together Again

SURPRISE! MEG RYAN DOESN’T “HATE” JOHN MELLENCAMP!

Living in different states was apparently not enough to keep John Mellencamp and Meg Ryan apart. After 3 years together they split in 2014 and a few months ago John went on the Howard Stern show and talked about it. He admitted he was a lousy boyfriend and had tried to win her back without success. John lamented “I loved Meg Ryan but she hates me to death! She wants nothing to do with me!” Meg was listening and we think she called to say she didn’t “hate him” and one thing led to another….

James Dean Lois Smith Screen Test

LOIS SMITH DID A SCREEN TEST WITH JAMES DEAN FOR EAST OF EDEN

Lois Smith, 86 has had six decades of acting history and she has a new movie at Sundance called Marjorie Prime. But we were delighted to hear that she also has a 60 year old video on YouTube of her and James Dean doing a screen test for East of Eden. It’s a silent video and James and Lois are evidently being told by someone off-screen to turn around, get closer etc, but it’s still fascinating. In her new movie at Sundance, Lois plays a widow with a failing memory and her family arranges to have a hologram of her beloved late husband (as he was 40 years ago) played by Jon Hamm, keep her company.

Borat Joe Jonas Mustache

IS IT JOE JONAS – OR SON OF BORAT?

NOW we see why Joe Jonas’s fans were so agitated by his appearance at the MTV Video Awards. That mustache is just getting bigger and bushier – causing some fans to compare him to a 70’s pornstar – or Tom Selleck or Alex Trebeck. Joe wants to put his Disney history far behind him – but this isn’t the best way to do it. Yet, he’s managed so far to hold on to his cute girlfriend, Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner, in spite of the unpleasant facial hair. And his band DNCE seems to welcome any fashion experimentation efforts he indulges in.

One Direction Zayn Malik

ZAYN MALIK: HEADED IN THE WRONG DIRECTION?

Like Jared Leto, Zayn Malik is apparently exhausted from fending off the advances of admiring women, but he has a slightly different – and less successful – method of repelling them. Leto dresses like a mismatched clown. From the neck up, the former One Direction singer does everything he can to downplay his extraordinary good looks. He buzzed his beautiful and abundant hair totally off, grew a beard and acquired spectacles. Does he think girls won’t make passes at guys who wear glasses? But from the neck DOWN, Zayn still looks delicious in his beautiful slim suit. He should learn to live with himself. Zayn’s pictured here leaving his girlfriend Gigi Hadid’s New York apartment.

Daniel Day Lewis Designer Phantom Thread

DANIEL DAY- LEWIS IS SITTING ON A PARK BENCH WITH A BROKEN ARM

He just announced that he’s retired from acting last June, and already Daniel Day-Lewis, 60, is wiling away the afternoon on a park bench in lower Manhattan. His “final” movie, coming out at Christmas, has already been described as brilliant. It’s called Phantom Thread and it’s the life story of a renowned British fashion couturier, Charles James, who designed clothes for high society and the Royals in the 50’s. The Brits are gleefully speculating that Day-Lewis fell in love with the fashion industry while researching the film and he decided to give up acting to design clothes himself. Anything’s possible. We do know that he broke his arm in a motorcycle accident (not a sewing machine accident) around a week ago.
