Girdle

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

The new cast on Dancing with the Stars has been announced and the always hustling Tori Spelling has agreed to do the hustle for a big payday. Here’s what we just heard. Not only is Tori pocketing a nice paycheck for her twirl on the dance floor, but she’s been offered a bonus if she gets her mother, Candy Spelling to appear in the audience. The popular show attracts older viewers and given the tumultuous history between Tori and Candy, producers think having Candy show up to watch her daughter dance will bring in HUGE ratings.

With the election coming up it’s been a busy week for political gossip. Let’s start with Republican Liz Cheney. We’ve all known she was no fan of Donald Trump, but she came out this week and announced she would be voting for Kamala Harris. Here’s what we know. Liz and the vice president, although their political beliefs couldn’t be further apart, have mutual respect for one another. Kamala has already mentioned that she would appoint a Republican to her cabinet and I’m hearing that Republican will be Liz. That’s one of the reasons Liz came out and announced that she will be voting for Kamala. You can also expect to see her pop up in television commercials and on the campaign trail.

With the upcoming presidential debate only days away, we heard this funny anecdote. While Kamala is busy prepping for the debate, Donald Trump is taking another route. He is getting fitted for a waist cinching girdle, new lifts for his shoes, and wrinkle reducing treatments. According to my source Donald wants to appear thinner, taller, and younger, as he’s worried he is going to look like a frail old man next to Kamala, who is nearly 30 years younger.

In the last piece of political gossip today, Hunter Biden did a last-minute reversal in his criminal tax trial and announced he was going to plead guilty. We just heard this. The reasoning is he’s hoping to avoid a jail sentence, but if he is incarcerated, you can expect his father, President Joe Biden will pardon him during his last days in office. My source says that Biden is still disappointed that he was abandoned by the Democratic Party, and while he supporting Kamala’s run for president, he’s going to issue whatever pardons that he chooses since he’s leaving office without regard for the optics, and of course that includes his son.

Nikki Bella made the headlines this week when it was announced she was looking for a divorce lawyer to end her marriage to pro dancer Artem Chigvinstev but we heard there is much more to the story. According to my source, her soon to be ex-husband plans to subpoena her former boyfriend, John Cena to find out if Nikki ever got physically violent during their relationship. You’ll remember it was Artem who first called 911 to report that Nikki was throwing shoes at him, so don’t think for a minute that this split won’t get ugly.

Finally, the biggest news of the week was Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s break up contract. Although all sides insisted it was a fake and had no validity at all, my source says Taylor is LIVID. I just heard that Taylor is now insisting Travis let her management team handle all of their PR. Since the purported fake contract had the official letterhead from Travis‘s current team, Taylor is a little suspect that it didn’t come from them, despite the denials. Moving forward, you can expect Taylor’s ‘s team to be in charge of anything related to public relations.

TOM CRUISE AND SYLVESTER STALLONE LEAD THE PACK OF HOLLYWOOD GUYS WHO WEAR GIRDLES

Variations of Spanx for men are becoming a hot commodity in Hollywood. A New York underwear line with the annoying name of 2(x)ist (pronounced “to exist”) is selling out on their tank top with a “hidden compression lining,” and trunks with a six inch fitted waistband to minimize muffin tops. 50 Cent, Justin Timberlake, and Mickey Rourke are already customers of the line. And don’t forget, Tom Cruise wore a girdle under his Armani wedding tux! Maybe Sylvester Stallone will be interested also – this reminds us of an old story about him. Sly had to gain around 30 pounds for a movie and struggled to take it off. He shopped at Bergdorf Goodman for clothes to make him look thinner while he lost the excess pounds. After he left they found some kind of male “girdle” he left behind in his dressing room! Nobody wanted to mention it to him, and he never called to get it back.
