Ronan Farrow (we like to call him a girl’s best friend) hosted an A&E Network women’s panel in New York that included one of our all-time favorite people – Gloria Steinem. She inspired us through the years to survive the behavior of patriarchal editors and producers and fight for women’s rights. Surely she played an Continue reading “THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING GLORIA STEINEM”
Speaking of designer Rick Owens, here’s an outfit from his latest collection. Owens started out in LA – we fondly remember back in the 90’s shopping at his first store on Las Palmas – a seedy side street in Hollywood. His clothing was part grunge, part goth – and quite expensive, but unbearably desirable! Rick’s Continue reading “RICK OWENS WAS ONCE A SWEET CALIFORNIA GUY- WITH STYLE TO BURN”
At 6’3”, English actress Gwendolyn Christie was discouraged early on from becoming an actress, but she persevered. She started out playing awkward office workers, aliens, policewomen, and finally landed a role in Game of Thrones. That changed everything. Suddenly designers “discovered” her and they love to take advantage of the fact that she attracts a Continue reading “GWENDOLYN CHRISTIE: BIGGER IS BETTER”
We never heard of the “War on Idling” in New York, but this cute photo of Billy Idol inspired us to look into it.

Of course Continue reading “BILLY IDOL WANTS TRUCKS TO STOP IDLING”
How different Alec Baldwin’s life would be if he had never met his wife Hilaria. Alec had earned a reputation in Hollywood as being “difficult” to put it mildly.

We are always astonished at what a loving and caring mother Jennifer Garner seems to be. And she’s a MOVIE STAR, to boot! Regular everyday moms are rarely as attentive to their children- Jennifer walks or drives her three kids to school every day and picks them up after school. When she’s not available, their Continue reading “EVERYBODY SHOULD HAVE A MOTHER LIKE JENNIFER GARNER”
How great is it that the star of the new Invisible Man movie is a WOMAN in this updated version? And it’s SO timely – Elisabeth Moss plays a woman tormented by her sociopathic but brilliant and abusive ex-boyfriend. He’s an inventor who fakes his own death and leaves her his fortune so he can Continue reading “THE INVISIBLE MAN IS NO MATCH FOR ELIZABETH MOSS”
Face the facts – society is headed in this direction: face masks will become a necessity if you plan to leave the house, and they might as well look good while they are saving your life. Fendi already had this silk mask on the market for $270 long before the Coronavirus struck, so they are Continue reading “THE INEVITABILITY OF DESIGNER FACE MASKS”
Diane Kruger’s relationship with Norman Reedus has always been fascinating – he looks like a rough-around-the-edges biker at best, and former model Diane seems so much more refined and fashionable. But they fell in love when they costarred in the movie Sky in 2015 and now they have a baby daughter. Appropriately, Norman, who stars Continue reading “DIANE KRUGER KNOWS THE SOFTER SIDE OF NORMAN REEDUS”
Sheryl Lee Ralph is a longtime favorite of ours and she brings to mind a funny story. Back in the 90’s when we gossiped for Star magazine we got a late night call from a security guard source who worked at an exclusive New York hotel. He was laughing as he said “Robert De Niro Continue reading “ROBERT DE NIRO MET HIS MATCH IN SHERYL LEE RALPH”
