Janet Charlton's HOLLYWOOD

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Luigi Mangione was back in the news when this photo of him wearing gray sweats while hanging out the prison yard of the Brooklyn Detention Center was somehow leaked and went public. We just heard this interesting tidbit.  More than a few fashion labels are clamoring to dress this handsome prisoner free (!) for his upcoming court cases and here’s why:  It seems like whatever Luigi wears to court instantly sells out in stores, so these labels took notice and are now offering up their styling services for no charge.  We don’t know yet if he’s taken any of the brands up on their offers, but we predict whatever he decides to wear will definitely affect sales.

 

 

Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey made the news when they posted photos on their social media of them being all lovey dovey while vacationing in Mallorca.  Here’s what we know.  Despite the curated and calculated photos, their marriage is still on shaky ground.  They were advised by someone on their team to throw off the scent of marital troubles and post the PDA snaps.  While it’s true they are trying to work things out, don’t think for a moment that their issues are resolved, because my source says they are FAR from it.

 

 

Denise Richards was in the headlines for two failures – her husband Aaron Phypers filed for divorce and days later her Bravo Show, Denise Richards and her Wild Things was NOT renewed.  As we just reported there’s rumblings that Denise could reconcile with her ex-husband, Charlie Sheen.  So now we know this.  Although Denise’s show was given the boot, she and Charlie are already in talks with Bravo about doing a show together.  When Charlie made an appearance on Denise’s show the ratings improved.  The format has them living together now that Aaron is moving out, and in a twist of fate, reality show or not, that could actually happen.  Our source says that Denise hates living without a man in the house and Charlie is sick of his rental apartment in Malibu so they’re talking about becoming roommates.

 

 

Elon Musk made the news ( surprise surprise) for a few reasons, but the biggest one was when he announced he was forming his own political party, the America Party.  For some who think this is a publicity stunt, we know this.  Elon is quite serious about the third party plan and is already actively trying to woo celebrities, the rich and famous, and business titans to jump onboard.  He’s already assembled a team of experts to make his dream a reality and has vowed to fund the idea with his BILLIONS of dollars.

 

 

The tragedy in Texas was all of the news this week and is beyond heartbreaking with the devastating floods all but washing away an all girls summer camp and killing over 100 adults and children.  We just heard this.  Although she was raised in Virginia, Sandra Bullock has strong ties to Texas – she’s owned a home in nearby Austin since the 1990’s.  Sandra does a lot of good deeds and always shuns the publicity around it and we just heard she’s doing it again by writing a big check to the Red Cross as they assist in the rescue and recovery efforts.

 

 

Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry made headlines when they were photographed vacationing together with their daughter, Daisy, on a mega yacht in Europe.  Here’s what we know.  The couple have agreed to keep everything friendly to minimize the impact their split will have on their daughter so we can expect more photos of family vacations, joint birthday parties, and shared holidays.  My source warns  that we shouldn’t won’be too surprised if the current conscious uncoupling dynamic changes if Orlando starts dating someone else.  Let’s put it this way, my source says that although Katy is fine not being with Orlando, she does tend to have a jealous streak and might NOT be so chill if he finds love again.

 

 

Diddy made the news again when it was decided that his sentencing will be October 3. Here’s what we know.  Diddy and his defense team are already reaching out to his friends and former celebrities about writing letters to the judge on his behalf.  They have a goal of getting 1000 letters in front of the judge before Diddy is sentenced, but so far they haven’t had much luck since Diddy’s former pals want NO association with the case at all.  Remember the backlash Ashton Kutcher received when he wrote a letter to the judge on behalf of his former costar convicted rapist, Danny Masterson. That’s likely why Diddy is having a hard time getting any support from anyone rich or famous.

SCARLETT JOHANSSON TONES IT DOWN FOR THIS ONE

You don’t often see glamorous Jurassic World Rebirth star Scarlett Johansson looking like a successful real estate agent or suburban housewife, but she throws herself into the role for her new film Paper Tiger with Adam Driver and Miles Teller. The movie is described as a “gritty story” about two brothers pursuing the American Dream. Bad things happen to the ambitious guys, and the family ends up threatened by the Russian mafia. Even worse things happen when the brothers turn against each other.  We have a feeling that the role appealed to Scarlett because it’s filming in the New York area close to the home she shares with Colin Jost..

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

Back in the 1978, Christina Crawford’s semi-autobiography Mommy Dearest, about her  abusive adoptive mother, actress Joan Crawford, was such a page turner that it become a 1981 hit movie starring Faye Dunaway.  Well kiddos, get ready for Stepfather Dearest, and this will make Mommy Dearest seem like a Disney movie!  Our C list stud muffin hasn’t had much of a career since the late 1990s, but he DOES have a famous last name, and a mega famous onetime stepdad.  Money is tight these days, so he’s writing a no-holds barred tell all, that will cause ripples in Hollywood and worldwide.  His childhood was horrific and he suffered emotional and physical abuse at the hands of his mom’s  hubby.  One of the most shocking incidents was when the stepdad drew a swastika on our guys forehead and made him wear it for a week! The stepdad is still very rich and famous, so there’s a strong possibility he will buy the rights to the book so it will never see the light of day.

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

This former A plus list, but now solid B list,  performer beat the odds by staying married for years to her less successful but cute husband.  They’re still happily married and there’s a reason – they’re now secretly involved in a throuple and share their bedroom with another female partner!  Their youngish kids are old enough not to need a live in nanny so when people question who she is, their female partner plays the part of a live in personal assistant – but she’s doing all of her work in the bedroom.  There’s no jealousy at all, since our guy is living his fantasy of being with two women at the same time, and our gal gets to satisfy her long rumored, but never acknowledged bisexuality.  Of course they have rules, like they can’t have any alone time with their third partner, but aside from that, it’s what keeping their marriage intact.
GUESS WHO!!

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

Our gal has never been in a better place – she has mega fame, a vast fortune, countless opportunities, and  she looks better than she’s looked in years, thanks to some well crafted plastic surgery.  Her life is borderline perfect except for one thing – she is sick of her longtime partner and is doing everything in her power to get HIM to dump HER, so she won’t have to pay any spousal support.  She is the breadwinner in the relationship, and has been picking up the tab for him since they first got together. Although they’re not legally married, they’ve been together long enough that she would be legally obligated to continue supporting him in the high flying manner he’s grown accustomed to, if she were to break things off. Despite her wealth, she’s notoriously frugal so she’s determined to make him as miserable as possible so he dumps her and she won’t owe him a cent. So far, however,  it’s not working, and he’s not about to get off this gravy train.
GUESS WHO!!

HEATHER LOCKLEAR IS WILLING TO SPILL THE BEANS

Add Heather Locklear to the list of celebrities who now host podcasts.  Heather recently filmed a pilot podcast which she is shopping around to various outlets in hopes of securing a deal.  According to my source, Heather is teaming up with her longtime friend, Jillian Barberie, (above left) on the podcast which will focus on the perils actresses face growing old in Hollywood – but also cover their combined decades of  fun stories and anecdotes about  their younger, wilder years.  Both women had amazing  careers – and then they didn’t…

DENISE RICHARDS AND CHARLIE SHEEN: SPARKS?

We were surprised, but not totally shocked,  to learn that Denise Richards and her husband Aaron Phypers are headed for splitsville  – he filed on July 7, and listed the date of separation as July 4.  We can’t help but wonder if Denise’s ex-husband, Charlie Sheen, has anything to do with the split.  Our inside source reveals that Denise and Charlie have become close again after their nasty divorce,  and now that he’s sober their relationship is on solid ground.  We will keep everyone posted, but remember, these two crazy kids just MIGHT give their romance another chance.

ELON MUSK WANTS ROSIE O’DONNELL ON HIS SIDE

One again…politics makes strange bedfellows,  and this latest pairing could take the cake.  Just when we thought it was over, Elon Musk’s feud with Donald Trump is back with a vengeance – with Elon threatening to finance primary campaigns against ANY Congressman who voted for Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill.  In retaliation,  Trump is threatening to stop all government subsidies for Elon’s various businesses like solar power and electric vehicles.  And it keeps getting  weirder. Elon has now reached out to one of the people who seems to get under Trump’s skin more than most, Rosie O’Donnell!  As odd as it sounds, Elon wants to team up with Rosie and unite against Trump.  My well placed source reveals Rosie, while no fan of Elon, still feels he’s the lesser of two evils when compared to Trump, and she has NOT ruled out working with him in some capacity.

ORLANDO BLOOM IS SHOPPING FOR A BACHELOR PAD

Now that he’s back on the market, Orlando Bloom is in the market for a new place to hang his hat.  Orlando was living in Montecito, California, when he was shacking up with his baby mama, Katy Perry, but now that they’ve called it quits, he’s frantically looking for a bachelor pad in West Hollywood.  My source says that Montecito was the perfect place when Orlando planned on marrying Katy and settling down, but it’s far from perfect for a bachelor, with my source describing it as full of “families and old people.” Orlando wants to start over in a swanky house above Sunset Strip and has already begun his search.

DID JEFF BEZOS ARRANGE THE LAUREN SANCHEZ VOGUE COVER?

Let’s preface this.  This is gossip and may or may not be true so to avoid any legal repercussions we are stressing that the following is just something we HEARD but can’t confirm, so judge for yourself.  A very well placed source reveals that Lauren Sanchez Bezos’ surprising digital Vogue cover was no surprise at all.  The rumor going around Hollywood, and of course New York City, is that Lauren’s newlywed husband pulled MAJOR strings and made a deal (assumingely to spend a boatload of money on advertising in the magazine) to ensure that Lauren and her Dolce and Gabbana wedding dress made the cover.  Remember, we aren’t stating this as fact since the last thing we want is to irk one of the world’s wealthiest men, so take it with a grain of salt,  even if our source is impeccable…
