JOAN COLLINS: THIS IS WHAT 84 LOOKS LIKE IN HOLLYWOOD

Looking glamorous as ever, Joan Collins, 84, and her husband of fifteen years, Percy Gibson, 52, turned up at Craig’s restaurant for dinner. The Dynasty star no longer has a TV series but she and Percy love to get dressed up and have a good time in Hollywood. She does keep busy writing books – well over a dozen at last count – both fiction and non-fiction. Joan credits her good health and looks to avoiding the sun and eating oily fish like salmon (Omega-3) twice a week. Also, she picked the right husband after getting it wrong four times in the past.

STEVEN SEAGAL IS PROUD OF HIS SUCCESS WITH WOMEN

It appears that Steven Seagal’s love of guns is only exceeded by his contempt for women. In all our years of documenting Hollywood behavior, we never heard ONE positive comment about the ponytailed actor. Seagal, 65, was actually sued by a number of women back in 2010 for rape, sexual harassment, and sex trafficking. Several of them said they were hired to be his assistant and he expected them to be his sex toys. He smugly denied everything. Female studio employees and his own employees apparently were bullied by his lawyer Marty Singer or paid off and dropped their suits. And they weren’t even actresses! Since Portia de Rossi and Jenny McCarthy came forward, more actresses have accused him of rape and assault. This is a man who will never say he’s sorry, much less admit he did anything wrong.

ICE-T AND HIS LOOKALIKE LITTLE GIRL

Ice-T, his wife Coco Austin, and their daughter Chanel are quite a colorful threesome as they arrive at LAX for a flight to NYC. Ironically, Ice-T, 60, gained early fame rapping about killing cops, and since 2002 he’s made a fortune PLAYING a cop on Law & Order: SVU. Thanks mostly to eighteen years of TV paychecks, Ice-T has accumulated a net worth of around 45 million. Little Chanel is making a face a lot like her dad.

JUSTIN THEROUX AND JENNIFER ANISTON: SMARTER THAN YOU THOUGHT?

To no one’s surprise, Justin Theroux is smoothly adjusting to being single in New York. He likes the idea of being a New York actor as opposed to a “Hollywood actor.” His serious writer and actor friends in the city call themselves “artists” – something down-to-earth Jennifer Aniston would not call herself. Justin hoped he and Jen would live half the time in his beloved Manhattan, but she was easily hounded by paparazzi there and never liked it. Their split may be simplified by the fact that they never legally married. (Remember, they announced they had “parted ways” with no mention of legal separation or divorce.) No marriage license has ever been located, so don’t expect any courtroom drama. If they DIDN’T legally marry, we give them both enormous credit for being realistic, unselfish, and thoroughly modern.

BARBRA STREISAND: MAYBE THOSE HARVEY WEINSTEIN TYPES WERE AFRAID OF YOU

We found Barbra Streisand’s comments about #MeToo to be brutally honest. Barbra admitted she has never been sexually harassed during her career and chalked it up to the fact that she “wasn’t like those pretty girls with nice little noses.” We happen to think it had nothing to do with looks – actually Barbra was TOO POWERFUL to be taken advantage of. She was already a Broadway darling when she STARRED in her first movie (Funny Girl) and from then on she was such a big star that her leading men were secondary to her. It’s highly probable that Barbra did some heavy flirting with her hand-picked leading men – and it wouldn’t be easy for them to turn her down. Barbra had big crushes on her costars Robert Redford, Nick Nolte (before his Malibu-pajama phase) and Ryan O’Neal. (We saw her sitting on Ryan’s lap and coyly giggling at The Candy Store during filming.)

THE TIME WARREN BEATTY, NATALIE WOOD, AND ROBERT WAGNER BUMPED INTO EACH OTHER

This photo, taken by photographer Gary Lewis in the 1970’s, is quite significant because it features three movie stars in a love triangle! Here’s the backstory: Natalie Wood married Robert Wagner in 1957 when she was 19 and he was 27. Everything was fine until she filmed Splendor in the Grass in 1961 with Warren Beatty. Their passionate love scenes on camera led to an affair and wrecked her marriage to Wagner and they divorced in 1962. In 1972, all was forgiven and Natalie and Robert married again. A short time later, Warren Beatty just happened to be waiting by the door at the busy Beverly Wilshire hotel for a friend, when suddenly Natalie and Wagner walked in! AWKWARD- they ignored each other – but Gary Lewis got the shot. If you love Old Hollywood photos and gossip, use this link mptvimages.com and type in Gary Lewis’s name. His Pics are amazing and he’s put together a celebrity packed book ready to be published.

PARIS JACKSON’S FATHER WOULDN’T LIE TO HER, WOULD HE?

Paris Jackson, 19, showed up at the Dior disco party in West Hollywood and she’s appropriately attired in Dior from head to toe. And she added some Amy Winehouse eyeliner. Recently she gently scolded fans on Twitter who photoshop pictures of her so that her skin is darker or lighter. “I am who I am” – Paris says her father Michael Jackson told her she is black and to be proud of her roots. Paris believes what he told her. In spite of her skin color, Paris’s career is moving along nicely. Watch for Paris in her new movie Gringo with Charlize Theron.

BURT REYNOLDS AT 82: EGO STILL INTACT

Our earliest memory of Burt Reynolds was the uproar made over his Cosmo centerfold. Back in the 70’s, a hairy naked man smoking a cigar with a smirk on his face while reclining on a fur rug, was apparently appealing. That and five years spent as Top Boxoffice Draw fueled Reynolds’ ego. He even imagined that he resembled a young Marlon Brando. Burt claims that careless, tabloid documented marriages and bad investments led to bankruptcy and a less glamorous life. But Reynolds still has that vanity – he uses a cane, but still wears Tom Cruise style elevator shoes, a carefully styled toupee, and his face is tight and relatively wrinkle free.

YOLANDA HADID: CAN YOU IMAGINE HAVING A MOTHER WHO LOOKS LIKE THIS?

She may look fantastic, but Gigi Hadid’s mom Yolanda, 54, is still a caring mother. She turned up at Gigi’s NYC apartment with coffee the day after Gigi and her longtime boyfriend Zayn Malik announced their split. Yolanda posted ambiguous comments on Instagram implying that it was for the best. She likes Zayn, but he and Gigi are very different. Gigi is outgoing and ambitious while Zayn is introverted and more of a loner. Gigi was good for him, but maybe he wasn’t so good for her. He IS gorgeous however…

DAVID SPADE: THE HARDEST WORKING BACHELOR IN HOLLYWOOD

You’d never guess by looking at him that unassuming David Spade, 53, is one of the most successful womanizers in Hollywood. He’s dated a lot of beauties – from Heather Locklear, Pam Anderson, Naya Rivera, Julie Bowen, and Teri Hatcher, to multiple Playboy Playmates. (He even has a daughter with one.) The Just Shoot Me comic certainly didn’t win all those women over with his style – we’re guessing they like his SNL sense of humor, but Spade insists women find him attractive because he’s “reliable and not a show-off.”
