Crush

JIMMY FALLON WAS ALMOST FAMOUS HIMSELF WHEN HE MADE THE MOVIE

What surprised us about the crush Jimmy Fallon admitted he had on Kate Hudson while they were filming Almost Famous in 1998 is not that he was too shy to ask her out. We were totally surprised that he was even IN the film! We looked up his character and indeed, it was Jimmy’s first feature film role and he played a young know-it-all road manager. (1998 is also the year Jimmy debuted on SNL- so he wasn’t famous – yet) The movie took place in the early 70’s so Jimmy’s character wore big aviator glasses, a bad haircut, and a mustache – no WONDER he didn’t catch 19 year old Kate’s attention at the time…

DID ARETHA FRANKLIN CONCEAL A MASSIVE CRUSH ON JAMES BROWN?

Leave it to The National Enquirer to have a different take on the death of Aretha Franklin. The tabloid insists that Aretha made a deathbed confession about a secret showbiz affair that she carried on for several decades. She wrote about this passionate affair with a well known public figure in her biography, but never revealed his name. She was heartbroken when he refused commitment. According to the Enquirer, the secret lover was James Brown! We love this old undated photo we found of both singers in their heyday looking really hot.

IF PITBULL HAS A CRUSH ON J.LO, HE’D BETTER ACT FAST

Gossip is scarce over the holidays with everyone out of town, so Life & Style magazine created a story about Miami rapper Pitbull, 33, having a secret crush on Jennifer Lopez, 45. It’s rather unlikely, but fun to think about. They have collaborated numerous times, but Jennifer was always attached to someone and she’s free now. Pitbull is 5’7” – just about the same height as most of her exes. He can dance, AND he bears a striking resemblance to Jennifer’s nicest ex Cris Judd! But Jennifer and Pitbull are WAY too busy with their careers to spend any quality time together, so we think it ain’t gonna happen.

NO KIDDING! MADDOX JOLIE PITT HAS A CRUSH ON JENNIFER ANISTON!


Imagine the look on their faces when Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt learned that their son Maddox has developed a crush on Jennifer Aniston! According to the Enquirer, Maddox is not aware of the backstory between his parents and Jennifer, he just became infatuated with her after he and his nanny watched “Marley & Me.” He loved Jennifer’s bond with the dog in the movie and her sweet smile. Now he wants a poster of her to hang on his bedroom wall! We just don’t think THAT’S gonna happen!

Singer Lana Del Rey’s childhood dream is coming true- she’s going out with her rockstar idol Axl Rose. She’s had a crush on the Guns n’ Roses front man for years, and has been seen at several concerts. She even wrote a song about him when she was younger. So we’re betting 25 year old Lana can barely contain her excitement when keeping company with Axl , who is now 50 and somewhat past his prime in the looks department. (That MUSTACHE!) They were photographed leaving Chateau Marmont together and as usual the follicly challenged rocker had his head covered. As Andy Warhol said, sometimes getting what you want is the worst thing that can happen to you.

OSAMA BIN LADEN DREAMED OF KILLING BOBBY BROWN AND MARRYING WHITNEY HOUSTON

There was one question we always hoped to ask Whitney Houston and now it will never happen. We wanted to know her reaction to the news that Osama bin Laden had a massive crush on her. In 2006 one of bin Laden’s mistresses published a book called “Diary of a Lost Girl” in which she described the al Qaeda leader’s obsession with Whitney. He thought Whitney was the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen and he fantasized about spending loads of money to go to America and meet her. Bin Ladin swooned over Whitney’s smile and convinced himself she was truly Islamic and brainwashed by American culture. He even dreamed about killing her then-husband Bobby Brown so he could marry her himself.

SHIA LABEOUF HAS NO CLUE THAT HE BROKE MEGAN FOX’S HEART

Shia LaBeouf casually mentioned in an interview that he and Megan Fox “hooked up” while working together on the Transformers set, but our readers knew about THAT three years ago! In fact we went a step further and told you that Megan harbored a massive CRUSH on Shia and would have dropped her fiancee Brian Austin Green in a minute for Shia, but her costar never took their fling as seriously as she did. For awhile she was in an agony of indecision over whether to stay with Brian or not. As it turns out, she probably married the right guy- Brian seems good for her.

NO KIDDING: ROB PATTINSON AND HIS ELEPHANT COSTAR HAVE REAL CHEMISTRY

It’s nothing new for costars to fall in love during the making of a movie, but in Rob Pattinson’s case, the costar was an elephant. (So Kristen Stewart has nothing to worry about.) Before Rob signed for his role in “Water for Elephants,” the director introduced him to Tai his elephant costar, and Rob was immediately enchanted. He loves animals and agreed to take the part. Reese Witherspoon did most of the on-camera stunts with Tai, but Rob learned a few of his own, just for fun. Rob let her pick him up and he rode around on her. The director observed that Tai developed real feelings for Pattinson (like almost every other woman alive) and it was obvious when they were together. As for Rob, he cried on Tai’s last day of shooting.

IS BRISTOL PALIN CRUSHING ON THE SITUATION?

Our favorite backstage gossip from “Dancing with the Stars” involves Bristol Palin and Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino. According to The Enquirer, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin got very upset when her daughter started rambling on and on about how “cool” and “smart” the Jersey Shore star is. Bristol, 19, admires how Mike, 29, has managed his show business career, and they both happen to be living in the same apartment complex during the dance competition. She figures she could learn a lot from him. Her mother Sarah, however, fears that Bristol will end up running around with party boy Mike and warned her to stay away.

SANDRA BULLOCK KNEW JESSE JAMES WAS A BIG FAN OF KAT VON D

Sandra Bullock has a little piece of information about Jesse James that she’s been keeping to herself. As if she didn’t have ENOUGH reasons to divorce him, she has long suspected that he has the hots for tattoo artist Kat Von D. According to a pal, Sandra has no reason to believe they have ever been intimate, but it wasn’t for lack of trying on Jesse’s part. “Jesse tried to hook up with Kat while he was married to Sandra” an insider has revealed. “He let it be known he was very attracted to her, but she ignored him, and that was that.” Kudos to Kat.
