Engaged Hairdresser Mel B Melanie "Scary Spice" Brown

MEL B THINKS SHE FINALLY FOUND THE RIGHT MAN

Melanie “Scary Spice” Brown, 47, is taking a chance on love once again. She’s wearing an engagement ring from her boyfriend of three years, UK hairdresser Rory McPhee, 36. This will be her 3rd marriage – her last one to Stephen Belafonte (fake name) was a disaster. His birth name was Stephen Stansbury and he was described as a con man. He had a criminal record and a history of abusing women. Divorcing him in 2019 cost Mel B a LOT of money. Last year, Melanie worked as a judge on The Masked singer: Australia and Rory was the hairdresser on the show. The rest is history.

Barbra Streisand Bradley Cooper Hairdresser Jon Peters Producer

BRADLEY COOPER’S NEW CHARACTER IS NOT A NICE GUY

Jon Peters must be highly flattered at the prospect of Bradley Cooper playing him in an upcoming movie. Nobody has admitted that Bradley’s character is based on Peters (they probably don’t want to be sued.) Peters launched his career in the 70’s as a hairdresser turned sleazy Hollywood producer with the help of his girlfriend Barbra Streisand, and he was notorious for egotistical bad behavior and accused of sexual harassment multiple times. (He was married to Pamela Anderson for 12 days) Let’s say he gave self-indulgent Hollywood producers a bad name. So He WILL be an interesting character for Bradley to play…

Giuseppe Franco Hair Replacement Hair! Hairdresser Mickey Rourke

MICKEY ROURKE: THAT’S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR

Mickey Rourke and hairdresser Giuseppe Franco have been friends for decades – in fact Mickey helped Franco get celebrity clients when he was starting out in Beverly Hills. For the past few years, however, Mickey has been experimenting with wigs in various colors with limited success. For some reason Giuseppe doesn’t step in and improve Mickey’s hairpieces, but maybe that’s why they’re still friends…Mickey and Giuseppe hang out at Mulberry Street Pizzeria in Beverly Hills – Mickey likes to read the New York Post there.

Crazy Rich Asians Hairdresser Henry Golding

HENRY GOLDING WAS A HAIRDRESSER BEFORE HE BECAME A MOVIE STAR

Since Crazy Rich Asians knocked the international boxoffice for a loop, Henry Golding, 31, has become a hot commodity. Before the movie premier (the biggest night in Henry’s life) the Malaysian born English actor took time to do his mother’s hair and his wife posted the sweet photo on Instagram. Henry was a hairdresser before he became an actor! Henry finished another movie before Asians was released – A Simple Favor. He played Blake Lively’s husband and now that he’s so famous, he’s suddenly being prominently featured in all the film’s publicity events.

Hairdresser Melanie "Scary Spice" Brown

OF COURSE MEL B IS SLEEPING WITH HER HAIRDRESSER

Every since Melanie Brown split with her husband Stephen Belafonte, she’s been keeping company with her hairdresser Gary Madatyan, who HAS given her some cool haircuts. By “keeping company” we mean they have been spotted EVERYWHERE together and Mel hasn’t been seen with other men. Both insist the relationship is platonic. But the fact that Mel likes a lot of sex in her life (she and Belafonte used to invite girls from The Rainbow to come home with them for threesomes) combined with the fact that Gary is the ONLY man she hangs with, certainly adds up to SOME kind of relationship “with benefits.”

Hair! Hairdresser Mary J Blige Walk of Fame Wig

MARY J BLIGE: WORST WIG SO FAR THIS YEAR!

It’s a sad state of affairs when the Queen of Hip Hop, Mary J Blige, has to show up for her Walk of Fame ceremony in this godawful hair. (Congratulations anyway!) This photo will follow her for years to come. It’s time to find a new hair stylist! This is a BIG year for Blige – besides selling tons of music, her new perfume was so successful that she broke HSN records. And she FINALLY got an acting role that proves what a shockingly proficient actress she can be. Mudbound earned her a Golden Globe nomination with more to come. So it makes sense to invest in a suitable hairdresser!

Hair! Hairdresser Mickey Rourke

MICKEY ROURKE NEEDS A NEW HAIRDRESSER

It’s difficult to fire your hairdresser when you’ve been friends for decades, but it’s time for Mickey Rourke to make a change. He’s given up on his own hair augmentation and taken to wearing wigs for the past few years. He has quite a variety in an assortment of colors, but they all share one trait- they look fake. And it’s not doing his career any good – his next two films are horror movies.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Giuseppe Franco Hairdresser

COLOR CHALLENGED: ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER AND HIS HAIRDRESSER

Former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is living like a single guy- he drove his military green Hummer (it runs on eco-friendly vegetable oil) to visit his buddy, hairdresser Giuseppe Franco in Beverly Hills. Franco has been responsible for Arnold’s hair for almost 30 years – Arnold comes to the salon twice a month for color and hair treatments etc . Giuseppe also travels with Schwarzenegger when necessary. It’s nice that Arnold is loyal to his old friends, but Giuseppe is no genius when it comes to natural looking color – for himself OR Arnold. Franco’s hair is shoe polish black, and Arnold’s is faintly orange.

Academy Awards American Hustle Hair! Hairdresser Kathrine Gordon

AMERICAN HUSTLE DESERVES AN OSCAR FOR HAIRSTYLING

One of the things we liked best about American Hustle was the HAIR. In particular, the men’s 1970’s hair. Christian Bale’s character’s comb-over was an instant classic and gave the movie its hilarious opening scene. Jeremy Renner’s pompadour was perfect for his smarmy mayor character. And who can forget Bradley Cooper’s headful of perm curlers? The women’s hair was also great, but in this case men’s hair dominated the movie and made it funnier. Kathrine Gordon was the head hair stylist responsible for the magnificent coiffures and of course, she SHOULD get an Oscar for it but probably won’t. Why? Because the sometimes backward Academy gives ONE award for ”Best Makeup and Hairstyling.” Imagine combining the two very separate skills! Consequently the award usually goes to someone who does prosthetic makeup for a fantasy movie. It’s a shame that hair people aren’t appreciated like they should be.
