BROOKE BURKE: YOUR SWEATER IS NOT A MASK

What the heck is going on at Nobu in Malibu? Brooke Burke walked out after dinner there, looking like THIS. A pulled up turtleneck is no substitute for a mask (according to Dr Fauci) – we wonder if she got away with this inside. At least her boyfriend, real estate developer Scott Rigsby, has a mask in his hand. Brooke, 49, divorced David Charvet in 2018 and has been with Scott through the pandemic. She has four kids with two ex-husbands so this girl has baggage, but luckily she’s super-cute. (Did you know Brooke started out as a Frederick’s of Hollywood catalog model?) Brooke won Season 7 of Dancing with the Stars and they liked her so much that she hung around as a host on the show for years. All she needs now is a real mask…

BRITNEY SPEARS: IT’S ALL ABOUT THE BOYFRIEND

The new documentary Framing Britney Spears has opened up a whole new discussion about her conservatorship. Britneys father Jamie, while acting as her conservator, controlled every inch of her life – he managed her career, finances, personal life and purchases. At 39, she had to ask his permission to buy an expensive pair of shoes. After earning ALL that money! It all boils down to THE BOYFRIEND – Jamie is very wary of her smoothly handsome boyfriend Sam Asghari, 27. Iranian born Sam is VERY ambitious and advertises his good looks and physical talents lavishly on social media. Compare his posts with Britney’s and you see his level of sophistication. Knowing Britney’s vulnerability when it comes to men (she invited a photographer in to live with her a few years ago, and HE ran her life and was accused of giving her drugs) her father is highly suspicious of Sam’s motives. It’s clear that Jamie doesn’t want Sam running Britney’s life and Sam is not happy. Sam says about Jamie: “I have no respect for anyone trying to control our relationship and constantly throwing obstacles in our way!” Is Jamie not allowing Britney to MARRY Sam? Does he have good reasons? Remains to be seen…

LADY GAGA IS GAGA OVER HARVARD GRAD

Looks like Lady Gaga has landed herself a live one this time around. She’s had a lot of boyfriends, but this one has credentials. Michael Polansky was wooing Gaga under the radar with his mask on, for months before anyone figured out who he is. He is quite different from past boyfriends – Michael has no connection to show business. He graduated from Harvard (!) in 2006, where he studied math and computer programming. He’s established himself as a philanthropist and board member for a number of charities. He may not be quite as handsome as Gaga’s ex Taylor Kinney, but he’s a man of substance. Gaga has described him as “the love of my life” and she takes him everywhere – including the Inauguration.

HELENA BONHAM CARTER’S ECCENTRICITY IS HER CHARM

We met Helena Bonham Carter (she’s currently starring as Princess Margaret in The Crown) years ago on the red carpet at the Oscars – it appeared to be her first time there and she was alone and confused -asking which way she should be walking. She was also a bit insecure about her Vivienne Westwood outfit which was QUITE unique and adorable. We liked her immediately. Since then, this eccentric actress has become a National Treasure in the UK. She and Tim Burton ended their long romance in 2014 and she has found a new love. He’s Rye Dag Holmboe, 33, a Norwegian art critic and writer and he’s 21 years younger than Helena. They may not SEEM to be the ideal couple on paper, but they’ve been spending many happy hours in museums together for the past two years…

MISCHA BARTON: HER OWN WORST ENEMY?

Apparently Mischa Barton, 34, was the LAST to know when she was fired from the second season of The Hills: New Beginnings. When the rumor leaked out that Mischa would not be returning to the series, she vehemently denied it, and was embarrassed when it turned out to be TRUE. (Her character’s story line was described as too boring) Around that time she broke up with her boyfriend of 3 years, Australian model James Abercrombie, claiming she “needed to concentrate on her career.” Weeks later she had a NEW boyfriend, photographer Gian Marco Flamini, above. Along came Covid and at least she had someone to isolate with. So much for focusing on her career. Mischa has always had more luck getting boyfriends than acting jobs.

BRITNEY VS SAM: WHICH ONE IS THE SUPERSTAR?

Britney Spears, 38, didn’t have a lot of good luck choosing significant others until she met her latest boyfriend Sam Asghari, 26. The father of her two children, Keven Federline, was a video dancer and he’s been living off Britney since they split because he has custody of their boys. Her current beau Sam is much more ambitious and self-disciplined, it appears. He’s a personal trainer and model and frequently posts photos of himself on Instagram to advertise his talents. Britney seems to have no knack for photos and her pix are considerably less focused – and a whole lot less flattering. Judging by the photos, you’d never guess SHE was the megastar!

ASHLEY OLSEN HAS PLENTY OF PROTECTION

Tiny Ashley Olsen, 34, is surrounded by security as she leaves her New York fashion office. She and her boyfriend of four years, Louis Eisner, 31, are both Corona cautious and wear scarves or masks at all times. Eisner is the son of jewelry designer Lisa Eisner and he and Ashley have been spending weekends in the Hamptons. Ashley’s twin sister Mary-Kate is still negotiating her problematic divorce from French businessman Olivier Sarkozy, 51. At least the twins can feel somewhat secure about their fashion business The Row. The two are worth about 300 million dollars now and that should tide them over.

HAS PARIS HILTON FINALLY FOUND THE RIGHT MAN?

We bet that back in the early 2000’s when Paris Hilton was the It Girl of the moment, she would have NEVER guessed that she would still be single at the age of 39! Paris, who inspired the term “famous for being famous” thanks to her sex tape and “A Simple Life,” reality series, has turned out to be quite an entrepreneur with 19 product lines and many stores making money for her. Boyfriend-wise, she’s moved on from actor boy-toys to a smart and equally successful vodka and tech entrepreneur, Carter Reum, also 39.They have a lot in common when it comes to business, but is he “hot” enough for her? We shall see…

ZENDAYA GOT A BIGGER BOYFRIEND

Euphoria star Zendaya is only 23 and already she’s an expert at keeping her lovelife a secret. She costarred with English actor Tom Holland in Spider-Man: Far From Home, and managed to keep their romance a secret almost until they split. She describes her Euphoria costar, Australian actor Jacob Elordi, 22, as her “best friend,” but he’s way more than that. They avoid events together, but have been seen in New York numerous times looking very chummy. (Note the matching Matcha drinks) At 5’8” Tom Holland was 2 inches shorter than Zendaya, but Jacob is 6’4” so she can stand up straight! He also keeps her laughing and that goes a long way…

MINNIE DRIVER IS MORE THAN AN ACTOR, SHE’S A SURFER

Minnie Driver seems to have been working nonstop in both films and TV, since she popped into view in Good Will Hunting. Born in the UK, we were amused when the independent actress moved to Malibu almost 20 years ago, determined to learn to surf. Now she can be seen expertly riding the waves most weekends. Minnie is pictured here with her 12 year old son Henry Driver (from a past relationship) and her boyfriend Addison O’Dea. Addison is a documentary film maker who specializes in cultural anthropology, frequently working for the Discovery channel
