HOW TO FILL A RESTAURANT WITH CELEBRITIES DURING A PANDEMIC

Don’t know how we missed this tidbit of news from Chris Gardner at The Hollywood Reporter, but it happened a few weeks ago when New York City restaurants opened for dining at 35% capacity. The Peter Luger Steak House in Brooklyn thought of an amusing way to fill some of the empty seats while abiding by Covid safety rules. They borrowed wax figures of celebrities to help fill the restaurant. You could rub elbows with Jon Hamm standing at the bar, or sit at a table with Audrey Hepburn, thanks to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum. Also hanging around the place were a smiling Jimmy Fallon, Michael Strahan, and Al Roker. Not very talkative, but nice for photo ops along with your steak dinner!

Angelyne Emmy Rossum Gary Baum Hollywood Reporter Pantyhose

ANGELYNE HAS NOTHING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT

We imagined that billboard icon Angelyne was furious when she first learned that Gary Baum had written an expose about her life for The Hollywood Reporter a few years ago. Baum spent months researching the article and revealed that Angelyne was born Renee Goldberg in Poland, to concentration camp survivors. The much talked about article spilled all of Angelyne’s secrets, but eventually she realized that it had made her even MORE famous for being famous! Now she’s executive producing the Angelyne series for Universal so maybe she won’t have to sell t-shirts and merchandise out of her Corvette trunk at Pavilions parking lot any longer. From the looks of this photo of Emmy Rossum, who’s playing Angelyne, the series looks like fun – they even got the pantyhose right!
