IS WILLOW SMITH PLAYING HOOKEY FROM SCIENTOLOGY SCHOOL?

Don’t they take attendance at Scientology school? It seems like Willow Smith, 9, has been around the world more than once in the last month and she hasn’t been seen twice in the same outfit. Right now she’s taking in the sights at Milan’s Fashion Week. Note she is sitting in the very exclusive FRONT ROW at the Dolce & Gabbana show and fraternizing with the likes of Naomi Campbell and her Russian billionaire Vladimir Doronin. What about math class?

Angelina Jolie Brad Pitt Italy Money Real Estate

THE JOLIE-PITTS HAVE YET ANOTHER PLACE TO CALL HOME

Villa Photo Credit: Pacific Coast News

Time to ponder how the other half lives again. Brad and Angelina have reportedly purchased a villa in the hills of Northern Italy for around 40 million dollars. The U-shaped mansion has 18,000 sq ft and many of the walls are covered with 17th century frescoes. There are 15 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, 2 pools, a vineyard and waterfalls. Plenty of room for an expanding family. This makes their sixth home in various countries in the world. As it stands, each of their children could inherit their own house. The Pitt-Jolie family is very generous to the less fortunate, but they don’t deny themselves much, either.

Couples Italy Jonathan Bricklin Ping-Pong Susan Sarandon

SUSAN SARANDON AND HER YOUNG BOYFRIEND ARE DOING MORE THAN PLAYING PING PONG

Susan Sarandon said it wasn’t so when she was accused of dumping the father of her children, Tim Robbins, last December, for a younger guy – specifically her ping-pong club partner Jonathan Bricklin. Bricklin, 32 years younger than Susan, has been her constant companion and they have traveled together before. Above, they were photographed at a film festival in Ravello, Italy. Still, they both avoid all suggestions of a romance. But if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck….

American Idol Couples Dancing With the Stars Italy Julianne Hough Ryan Seacrest Yacht

RYAN SEACREST AND JULIANNE HOUGH: TEMPERATURES RISING!

Mr MoneybagsRyan Seacrest has obviously grown extremely fond of “Dancing With The Stars” ingenue Julianne Hough. He’s been cruising on a yacht around Italy with his buddies and a gaggle of model types, but he didn’t look REALLY happy until today when Julianne flew in from the USA and boarded his yacht in Portofino. She ran up the gangplank and leaped into his joyfully open arms and they kissed and hugged for the longest time. Later they strolled hand in hand around the port and size-wise, they ARE a great match.

Fashion Italy John Malkovich

JOHN MALKOVICH’S MENSWEAR COLLECTION ROLLS WITH THE PUNCHES

Who knew John Malkovich was a fashion designer? The eccentric actor and an Italian partner have a unique menswear line called “Mrs Mudd” which they describe as based on “beauty and menace.” John has always been an off-beat character, and he introduced his line in Italy – not on models, but on members of a judo class, who threw each other around! The clothing survived “without losing a single button” and his spring collection is described as “technobohemian.”

Amber Rose Italy Kanye West Pants Shopping

WHEN IN ROME, KANYE WEST WEARS DROOPY PANTS

It’s a miracle that Kanye West and Amber Rose weren’t asked to leave any of the fancy stores where they shopped in Rome, when you observe how he walked around – with droopy pants and his underwear on display! The pair nonchalantly browsed in Fendi and Missoni, oblivious to the startled people with a rear view of them. What must they think of Americans?

Boyfriend Eva Mendes Italy

EVA MENDES COULD BE MISTAKEN FOR AN ITALIAN SEX SYMBOL

Eva Mendes must be adored in Italy because she looks like the ideal image of a bigger than life Italian movie star, reminiscent of Sophia Loren. She’s in Portofino, Italy with designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, and her rarely seen filmmaker boyfriend George Gargurevich. Eva and George are attending the Giffoni Film Festival.
