GERARD BUTLER: LEADING MAN TO GEEZER OVERNIGHT

Whoa- talk about getting into character! Gerard Butler just went from sexy leading man to geezer in no time flat. Not long ago he was the hot new UK actor in Hollywood. Do Scottish actors have a short shelf life? We remember him as an appealing gangster in Guy Ritchie’s RocknRolla with Tom Hardy. Gerard is only 47 and he’s currently filming “Keeper” in which he plays a turn of the century lighthouse keeper in Scotland. We never would have recognized him – hopefully this new look will prove to be temporary…

JENNIFER ANISTON GETS A KICK OUT OF HER RAZZIE NOMINATION

Jennifer Aniston just laughed it off when she heard she’d been nominated for a Razzie award for Worst Actress in “The Bounty Hunter.” (Her costar Gerard Butler was nominated for Worst Actor.) Why shouldn’t she laugh? She earns 27 million dollars a year from movies, Friends residuals, and Smart Water. In fact, we wouldn’t be surprised if she showed up to collect the award in person.

IS GERARD BUTLER’S NEW LOOK THANKS TO JENNIFER ANISTON?

Believe it or not, that skinny guy is Gerard Butler. He and Jennifer Aniston dined on a yacht in Paris while they were in town promoting “The Bounty.” We’re struck by how slim Gerard looks- but then, Jennifer is an expert on weight control. When she was married to Brad she carefully monitored what they ate and encouraged working out – he was never in better shape. Maybe Gerard has been picking up a few diet tips from Jen. We’re betting fish and vegetables were on the menu that night.

GERARD BUTLER IS JENNIFER ANISTON’S SPECIAL GUEST IN CABO

We’re really happy to see Jennifer Aniston having some fun in the sun with Gerard Butler. Why Not? Gerard, who costarred with Jen in “The Bounty Hunter,” flew down to Cabo after Jen arrived with her friends Courteney Cox and David Arquette, Sheryl Crowe, and others. Apparently the group has a big hacienda with private guest houses on the property. Jen and Gerard stayed in a little casita not far from the main house. Gerard has the binoculars – is he looking for paparazzi? Jen is standing behind him. Nice way to spend a week.

GERARD BUTLER HAS A FEW SIGNIFICANT NOTCHES ON HIS ACTING BELT

Soho is the place to be. Gerard Butler looks perfectly content walking sdown the street sipping his coffee. And why not? He’s become the first choice to play the “boyfriend” for actresses in Hollywood over 30. He holds his own with women like Hilary Swank, Katherine Heigl, and Jennifer Aniston, without stealing their thunder as female leads. For the time being he’s in “a woman’s world” and he’s not complaining.

GERARD BUTLER IS NOT SUCH A BAD CATCH, AFTER ALL

Gerry Butler -he prefers to be called Gerry – is not just another Colin Farrell. (Not that that’s a bad thing.) He’s just not the party boy he appears to be. He’s 6’2″ but he’s not dumb. Gerry has a law degree from Glasgow University and he doesn’t smoke or drink. He’s a girl magnet and a HUGE flirt and people assume he’s had a few drinks, but that’s not the case. He gave up booze years ago and unlike many other non-drinkers, he DIDN’T lose his personality! And he’s never been married or engaged.

We’re betting that Gerard Butler kind of enjoyed that sudden notoriety he achieved when the rumor surfaced that he was fooling around with Jennifer Aniston. Apparently they met for two minutes at the Toronto Film Festival and UK papers blew it up into a big “romance.” Throughout the speculation, Gerard was rather silent, but recently as he was leaving Crown Bar after a night of boozy partying he regretfully admitted “I am not dating that woman.”

GERARD BUTLER IS CAUGHT HANGING AROUND ON ROBERTSON BLVD

Tourists used to walk on Rodeo Drive, hoping to catch a glimpse of a movie star. That’s all changed. Now we can’t walk on Roberston Blvd without practically tripping over a star. (Of course, you might be trampled by herd of paparazzi also.) Gerard Butler (“300”) just had lunch at the Newsroom Cafe and he looks deliciously available, leaning on that lamp post chatting on his phone. We’re not sure how available he really IS, because the sexy Scottish actor is very secretive about his love life.
