Grace Hightower Robert De Niro

ROBERT DENIR0 – MORE LAID BACK THAN WE’RE USED TO SEEING

If Robert De Niro is looking a bit more scruffy and relaxed these days it just might be due to the fact that he split with his wife of 21 years Grace Hightower. Ebony magazine says that Grace kept Robert on a tight leash (which he probably needed) – she was involved in many charities and wanted him to look respectable in public at all times. That meant freshly shaved, neat haircut, and well dressed. Robert prefers to let it all hang out between movies and be himself. There were also rumors that Grace was a Trump supporter.(?) Friends agree that they are both happier since the split and Robert hardly looks like the movie tough guy he plays so well in this cozy photo with his dogs and his cute daughter Helen.

MELISSA MCCARTHY IS NOT ABOVE BARGAIN HUNTING

Melissa McCarthy got up early Sunday for the Long Beach flea market, and she must be a serious shopper because she brought her own cart. Not sure why, but Southern California flea markets are among the best in the world. Melissa pulled out a baseball cap and a fanny pack and browsed every booth. By the end of the day her cart was packed with vintage clothing, rugs, tchotchkes (home décor) art, and at least one pair of shoes. A good time was had by all

Colin Jost Scarlett Johansson

COLIN JOST STILL CAN’T BELIEVE HIS GOOD LUCK

Scarlett Johansson, 34, has never looked better! She seems deliriously happy with her current boyfriend, SNL writer and Weekend Update co-anchor Colin Jost. (Never underestimate the importance of a good laugh.) Colin, 36, still seems a bit stiff and reluctant when posing on the red carpet with his girlfriend of two years, but he’d better get used to it. After all, Scarlett IS the highest paid actress in Hollywood! The cool couple appeared at the lavish premier of Scarlett’s latest film, Avengers: Endgame, at LA’s Convention Center.

Birthday Denim Gigi Hadid

GIGI HADID: MODELS DO GET TIRED OF DRESSING UP!

Gigi Hadid decided she wanted her friends to really relax and enjoy her 24th birthday party and not feel obliged to dress up in suits, ties, and high heels. She declared it a denim party so everyone could wear their most comfortable jeans, and she held her party at a hip new NY restaurant, L’Avenue, situated on the top two floors of Saks Fifth Avenue. Like it or not, California casual is infiltrating all of New York.

Dallas Dynasty Linda Evans Patrick Duffy

BLAST FROM THE PAST: LINDA EVANS AND PATRICK DUFFY IN MONACO

No sooner did The National Enquirer write about Dynasty star Linda Evans “Living out her days alone as a recluse” than Linda turned up at a Princess Grace tribute in Monaco with pony-tailed Dallas star Patrick Duffy. (TWO 80’s primetime soap stars!) Linda DOES live on a 70 acre ranch in Washington state -she moved there to be closer to JZ Knight, a “spiritual advisor” who has been described as a cult leader. Knight claims to “channel” a 35,000 year old “spirit” who gives advice. She may lack common sense, but Linda has always been an exceptionally nice and kind person – especially with fans. Nice to see she’s out and about…

Blake Shelton Family Gwen Stefani

NO DOUBT, IT’S FAMILY FIRST FOR GWEN STEFANI

Easter is a big day for Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton and her three sons. First the group went to church together and afterward they stopped off at Ralph’s supermarket on La Brea (our neighborhood!) to pick up some snacks -cheese, drinks etc. (Our spy says they shopped like a married couple) Armed with treats, the family plus one, arrived at the home of Gwen’s parents for holiday dinner. Blake really seems to get along with Gwen’s sons.

Anna Faris Chris Pratt Jack Pratt Katherine Schwarzenegger

JACK PRATT IS HAVING A PERFECT EASTER SUNDAY

Nice to see a happily blended family in Hollywood. Chris Pratt took his fiancé Katherine Schwarzenegger to mass in Santa Monica on Easter Sunday along with his son Jack. Jack, 6, lives with his mother – Chris’s ex-wife Anna Faris – and the three adults seem to get along really well. Chris brought Jack along on many of his early dates with Katherine to make sure the chemistry was right before he took the relationship to the next level. When they divorced, Chris and Anna agreed to live no more than 6 miles apart so they could share custody of Jack. Apparently the Easter Bunny gave Jack the stuffed lion he’s carrying.

LA Mission Pharrell Williams Son

PHARRELL: IT’S NOT ALL ABOUT LOOKING LIKE A NICE GUY

Lots of celebrities show up to help and serve food when the skid row LA Mission downtown has a special holiday meal for the homeless. Pharrell Williams is a frequent participant and unlike many celebs, he has more on his mind than being photographed looking like a generous person. Pharrell and his wife brought their son
Rocket to volunteer with them at the Easter meal on Good Friday to teach him about giving back.

Amber Heard Blacklisted Johnny Depp

IT’S TIME FOR JOHNNY DEPP TO BE BLACKLISTED!

It was VERY disappointing to hear Amber Heard’s charges of violence, substance abuse, etc, against Johnny Depp when they were divorcing, because we didn’t realize the awful person he had become. We REALLY wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, but when we learned about him mistreating crew members on his films, we knew Amber was right. But there’s MORE – Amber says she was warned and feared being blacklisted for work in Hollywood if she told the truth about Johnny. After she spilled the beans, Amber DID lose work, and now it turns out Johnny also tried to get her fired from Aquaman. This will hopefully be detailed in court, but it clearly illustrates the way women are treated in Hollywood. Thank you, Amber!

Charlize Theron Daughter Jackson Theron Transgender

CHARLIZE THERON IS OKAY WITH JACKSON BEING A GIRL

Charlize Theron has finally addressed the delicate issue of her seven year old son Jackson dressing like a girl. (She also has a three year old daughter, August.) When Charlize adopted her first baby she introduced him to the world as a boy. Jackson has been photographed through the years wearing skirts and long braided hair. Charlize said ”Jackson looked at me when she was three years old and said ‘I am not a boy!’ Now I have two beautiful daughters and like any parent, I want to protect them and see them thrive.”
