Irina Shayk Models Single

IRINA SHAYK IS ENJOYING BEING SINGLE

It didn’t take long for Irina Shayk, 33, to adjust to the single life. She’s turning heads in New York just walking down the street in her single-girl style and combat boots. She and her boyfriend of four years, Bradley Cooper, 44, split at the beginning of this month and he is still back in LA. The Sports Illustrated model is probably tired of being a Brentwood housewife, and no doubt eager to resume her modeling career and have some fun. She and Bradley will share custody of their two year old daughter Lea.

Billy Idol

BILLY IDOL’S CHARMED LIFE CONTINUES -THANKS TO CHINA CHOW

It’s been over a year, and the unexpected relationship of Billy Idol, 63, and China Chow, 45, continues to flourish. They ARE both British, but Billy is a wild and sexy iconic 80’s rocker, and China is an educated and beautiful, socialite. She has also dabbled in acting and modeling. Since they hooked up, she has been taking the never married Billy to all kinds of social events – art gallery openings, charity events and fashion shows – places we’ve never seen him before. They seem quite happy above, leaving Nobu in Malibu after dinner…

Jeff Goldblum

JEFF AND EMILIE GOLDBLUM IN HIS N’ HERS HAWAIIAN SHIRTS

Jeff Goldblum and his matching wife Emilie bring to mind a cute lesson in fashion history. Back in the late 40’s early 50’s, Americans visiting Hawaii were in the habit of buying His n’ Hers matching Hawaiian shirts – or even better, a shirt for Him and a matching sarong dress for Her. It was affordable and corny. In the 1970’s, Hawaiian shirts with their beautiful prints became very hot with vintage collectors and hipsters – they bought as many of the shirts as they could find to resell at high prices. Nowadays, those old colorful but fragile rayon Hawaiian shirts cost a fortune and are sometimes even framed as art. The Goldblums are having a retro style evening at Craig’s in their knock-off Hawaiian shirts.

Date Keanu Reeves

KEANU REEVES CREATES A STIR BY GOING OUT TO DINNER

Everybody seemed to get awfully jealous when Keanu Reeves was seen out last night in the company of a woman. He’s been enjoying a peak in his popularity lately. And he IS one of the most attractive and inexplicable single men in Hollywood. Keanu, 54, took Alexandra Paul, his artistic partner in his two successful poetic books, Ode to Happiness and Shadows, to Madeo for dinner. Whether they are more than business associates is not known.

Alain Delon Alain-Fabien Delon

IT’S NOT EASY BEING ALAIN DELON’S SON

Alain-Fabian Delon, 25, has mixed feelings about being the son of the most admired and popular actor of all time in France. Alain-Fabian has some of his father’s amazing good looks – enough to give him a job modeling at Dior and some work as an actor. (We’d call him a male starlet) He says that whenever his father’s name comes up, everything in the room changes and he feels “invisible.” It’s a lot to live up to. Above, Alain-Fabian is attending the Berluti fashion show in Paris.

Bette Davis Madame X Madonna

FASTEN YOUR SEAT BELTS, MADONNA IS BACK!

Madonna will NOT be taking off that eye patch anytime soon, so get used to it! She’s making the rounds on TV, radio, whatever – to promote her Madame X album (which is getting decent reviews) and she has a monumental summer tour planned. Ticket prices are astronomical – can she still fill all those seats? Never underestimate Madonna – (does anyone else think she’s starting to resemble Bette Davis, just a little?)

Facetasm Fashion Fashion Collaboration Fashion Week

JAPANESE BRAND FACETASM: LEVI’S WITH A TWIST

The men’s Spring/Summer collections are on the Paris runways and we were transfixed by an unfamiliar brand –Facetasm. Designer Hiromichi Ochiai’s collection was described as “unfinished completion.” The Japanese brand collaborated with Levi’s 501s and came up with a capsule collection of denim – and amazing trucker jackets. Smart move for Levi’s. All the models on the runway wore the same black lipstick and white wigs covering their faces so the audience wouldn’t be distracted from the fashion. In fact, you could barely tell male models from female. We think Japan is the new fashion capital of the world…

Hair! Jon Bon Jovi Lookin' Good!

JON BON JOVI HAS NO USE FOR CLAIROL

Jon Bon Jovi, 57, has found the secret for growing older gracefully as a rock star. He let his hair go grey a few years ago and never looked back. We think he looks even better now than he did when he was young. Of course, he was smart NOT to grow facial hair or a grey beard to go along with his hair. His clean face is a relief – Hollywood, and the music world – are over-run with grizzled looking celebrities trying to hold onto their youth. Bon Jovi is currently performing in Liverpool.

Hollywood Marilyn Monroe Vandalism Walk of Fame

THANK YOU TO WHOEVER STOLE THAT MARILYN MONROE STATUE!

Since it appeared in 1994, we have been appalled by this monstrosity that apparently passes for “public art.” The gaudy metallic gazebo is located at the important intersection of Hollywood Blvd and La Brea, intended as some kind of “gateway” to Hollywood. We always assumed there was some sort of political corruption between whoever paid for it and the artist. The embarrassing “art” depicts five statues of actresses in a highly sexualized and disrespectful manner. Whoever vandalized this nightmare should be rewarded, and hopefully the Hollywood chamber of commerce will re-think this situation and install a more appropriate piece of art.

Rihanna

RIHANNA: LOOKING GOOD IS HALF THE BATTLE

Rihanna looks drop dead gorgeous at the NY pop up party for her new Fenty collection, but so far we’re not dropping dead over her designs. We’ve only seen a few pieces from her expensive collection (her former stylist is helping with the business) – they consist of big shoulder jackets with no pants. Her fans won’t be thrilled to learn that they’ll have to shell out $1000 for a Fenty dress. We think her collaboration with Puma was a huge success because the clothes were sporty and wearable for daytime, not to mention affordable. But there’s a lot more to see, so we’re keeping an open mind…
