ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER IS A POLITE POLITICIAN

Arnold Schwarzenegger isn’t letting politics come before good manners. Arnold is a regular at Gold’s Gym in Venice, California where his former cousin-in-law, RFK Jr. also works out, (They were related through marriage when Arnold was wed to Maria Shriver). According to our muscular gym source, the two men hit the gym at different times, and haven’t run into one another since Junior launched his independent run for the White House, which is UNPOPULAR with the Kennedy clan. It’s no secret that Arnie thinks RFK, Jr. is off his rocker with some of his farfetched political beliefs, but nonetheless our source says Arnold could not have been nicer when he ran into him during a recent workout. He gave him a big hug and they had a pleasant conversation.

JOSEPH BAENA: THIS IS A REALTOR?

Is Joseph Baena destined to be the most successful of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s kids? Joe SAYS he’s a real estate agent, but have you ever seen one who looks like THIS? A hairless mountain of muscles? You have to give him credit- he’s Arnold’s son with the family housekeeper Mildred Baena– and he caused Maria Shriver to divorce Arnold after 25 years of marriage. A rocky start, but Arnold made sure Joe, 25, got a good education at Pepperdine University AND in the gym. He’s the only one of Arnold’s kids interested in bodybuilding, so they get along well. Joe aspires to body building and acting like his father and finances his efforts by selling real estate.

BRIGITTE NIELSEN: IT’S A LONG STORY

Against all odds, Brigitte Nielsen is living happily ever after. Back in the 80’s she was a hot commodity- she started out as a model and landed the leading role in Red Sonja with Arnold Schwarzenegger. In 1985 they had a fling during filming and the next year she married Arnold’s rival (her Cobra costar) Sylvester Stallone. After a total of four husbands and four sons she confessed she had an alcohol problem and entered rehab. Fast forward to 2006 – she married cute (fifteen years younger) Italian waiter Mattia Dessi. She struggled with infertility until she miraculously became pregnant at 55, and gave birth to daughter Frida, now 4. Brigitte and Mattia are still married and living with Frida in Palm Springs.

STALLONE: NO LONGER A KNOW-IT-ALL?

Sylvester Stallone did a surprisingly candid interview with James Hibbard at The Hollywood Reporter, and it brought back some memories. Sly admitted that he was obnoxious and “thought he knew everything” when he became successful. Back in the day, his biggest competitor was Arnold Schwarzenegger- (it so happens I introduced them when we were all walking out of a screening in the late 70’s.) They became rivals and Arnold admitted to faking interest in a dud movie (Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot) to lure Sly into pouncing on the role. Sly went so far as to pay a UK writer to write a book about Arnold’s father, who was a Nazi, figuring it would kill his career. (It didn’t, and Arnold is quite the opposite of his father) Now that both actors are older – they realize they have a lot in common and are good friends. They like smoking cigars together.

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER : HE’S BACK

Arnold Schwarzenegger took two of his sons (Patrick and Christopher) and his cute girlfriend Heather Milligan to Munich, Germany, for his favorite party every year,  Oktoberfest. It’s a huge two week event at Munich fairgrounds, with wild rides, fireworks, and numerous “beer” tents, described as the world’s largest folk festival. Arnold takes his fun seriously so he made sure everyone was dressed right – men dress for this occasion in lederhosen- vintage leather pants to the knee and leather jacket— what peasants used to wear to hunt in the mountains. Women wear dirndl skirts with a puffy blouse (cleavage encouraged) – like bar maids. This year is especially festive due to a two year Corona break.

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER : WHAT’S GOING ON HERE?

Arnold Schwarzenegger posted this provocative photo that looks like a movie poster on instagram today. It was simply labeled “Coming February 2022.” Celebrity journalists scrambled, but could find NO information about a movie coming out. Certainly Arnold would ENJOY playing Zeus, the King of all the Greek gods on Mount Olympus in Greek mythology, but a film doesn’t seem to be happening. Some speculated that the picture could be a hint about an upcoming Super Bowl (Feb 13) ad, but there is no indication of WHAT it might be advertising. Sly Stallone must be burning with curiosity…

IS JOSEPH BAENA ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER’S MOST SUCCESSFUL OFFSPRING?

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son Joseph Baena celebrated his 24th birthday yesterday. He posted this photo of himself, his dad, and his half-brother Roger Baena. He obviously takes after his father in more than just bodybuilding. Joe captioned the photo: “23 was amazing- filled with new friends, new experiences and most importantly, a lot of goals met!” (Arnold’s work ethic rubbed off!) When the Pepperdine grad isn’t in the gym, he’s working as a realtor – he specializes in West LA properties and especially an up-and-coming area called Silicon Beach where over 500 technology companies are located close to the beach. Who wouldn’t want the son of the Terminator for a realtor?

WHEN ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER LOOKS SMALL

Arnold Schwarzenegger was in Columbus, Ohio this weekend for his annual Arnold Sports Festival where he ran in to Shaq- one of few guys who can make Arnold look petite. Arnold’s comment: “Great to see my friend Shaq, although I don’t know why he always insists on standing on a 2 foot box when he’s with me.” (Shaq was in town for a DJ job.) Arnold’s bodybuilding contest revealed the competitors are even more gigantic and lumpier that ever- don’t know if it’s due to better gym equipment or better performance drugs…and they all seem to be addicted to deep tanning …

SYLVESTER STALLONE: NOT ALWAYS AS SWEET AS HE LOOKS

Sylvester Stallone celebrated his 75th birthday this week and says he is MOST grateful for his family. He was smart to marry model Jennifer Flavin back in 1997, because they had 3 beautiful daughters who look nothing like their father. Back in the day when he was an action hero, Stallone was VERY competitive with Arnold Schwarzenegger. In fact we heard he went so far as to pay a UK journalist to write about Arnold’s father having been a nazi, in hopes of damaging his career. It didn’t, but eventually Sly calmed down and he and Arnold became friends – all was forgiven.

ARNOLD IS BACK: AS A KINDERGARTEN SUPERHERO

Arnold Schwarzenegger can be seen riding his bike in Venice or Brentwood just about every day, so he’s more than in shape for his next project. Actually he doesn’t need his body for his next job- he’s only using his voice for an animated series called Superhero Kindergarten. The late Stan Lee came up with the idea for the series after he saw Arnold in Kindergarten Cop. The series is about a superhero turned teacher who educates the next generation of young superheroes about how to manage their powers. Arnold is excited about his new teacher role – set to debut on the kartoonchannel.com on April 23.
