WARREN BEATTY HAS A SURPRISE FOR US

You don’t see Warren Beatty, 79, walking down the street in Beverly Hills every day, but then he doesn’t come up with movies very often. It’s been 15 years since Warren was onscreen but here he goes again. He wrote, directed, and produced Rules Don’t Apply, which happens to feature Howard Hughes as a pivotal character – played by Warren, of course. Hasn’t he been working on this movie for DECADES? It’s not a bio – the film takes place in Hollywood in 1958 and it‘s about a young couple who work for Hughes and fall in love, which is against studio rules. The comedy-drama also features a supporting cast which includes Annette Bening, Alec Baldwin, Candice Bergen, and Matthew Broderick. Fox is releasing the movie in November.

GLORIA VANDERBILT MAKES ANDERSON COOPER BLUSH

There’s something adorable and old-fashioned about Anderson Cooper. He appeared with his mother Gloria Vanderbilt on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen and he actually blushed and cringed at a few of his amazing mother’s personal disclosures. Among the most interesting revelations were the fact that Gloria rated Howard Hughes as the best lover she ever had and also that she would have married him in a minute, but he never asked. She also didn’t think the Howard Hughes movie with Leonardo DiCaprio accurately portrayed Hughes.
