BRAD AND JEN ARE ACTUALLY FRIENDS

Need more proof that there’s no bad blood between exes, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston? Well then, here you go. Brad recently introduced Jen to his current girlfriend, aspiring jewelry designer Ines de Ramon and the gals hit it off so well that Jen has offered to help Ines get publicity for her jewelry line! It’s common knowledge that a celebrity endorsement is good for business, and let’s face it, Jen is on Hollywood’s A-list. She’s agreed to wear a few of the jewelry items from Ines’ label (Ines is an executive and also designed a few pieces.) That’s not all, Jen taught Ines how to make Brad’s favorite banana smoothie. My source says that Brad and Jen remain wonderful friends but neither has any interest in getting back together. We love this news because it illustrates what a decent person Jennifer actually is…

SEAN DIDDY COMBS IS SELLING HIS JEWELRY

This should come as no surprise, but Sean Diddy Combs has more problems than just his criminal ones. The incarcerated rapper is facing decades behind bars for a litany of sex related charges and the negative affect on his various businesses has been swift and harsh. His online shopping website geared towards the black community, Empower Global, is all but kaput -as the majority of sellers (who paid $35 per month to hawk their merchandise) have fled the site. His other business ventures are suffering and according to a source his legal bills mounting SO fast that he’s having his vast collection of flashy diamond jewelry shopped around for cash. My source says he’s burning through money at an alarming rate, and predicts that even if he’s acquitted of the charges, he will wind up BROKE.

BRAD PITT AND JENNIFER ANISTON HAD A VERY CIVILIZED DIVORCE

Need more proof that there’s no bad blood between exes Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston? well then here you go: Brad recently introduced Jen to his current girlfriend, aspiring jewelry designer Ines de Ramon, and the gals hit it off so well that Jen has offered to help Ines get publicity for her jewelry line! It’s common knowledge that having a celebrity wear or endorse something is a huge deal, and let’s face it, Jen is on Hollywood’s A-list. She’s agreed to wear a few of the jewelry items from Ines’ label (she’s an executive and also designed a few pieces). And that’s not all, Jen also taught Ines how to make Brad’s favorite banana smoothie. My source says that Brad and Jen remain wonderful friends but neither has any interest in getting back together.

MADONNA HAS A COLLECTION OF MOUTH ACCESSORIES

Madonna and her maybe boyfriend Akeem Morris (not pictured) went out with friends in Portofino and she got all dolled up – including her mouth jewelry. Madonna has been sporting what she calls “dental accessories” for decades – she started with gold teeth in the 90’s. She has amassed quite a collection of bejewelled grills and claims they suit her because she likes to hide her “ugly teeth.” We wonder- does she remove them when she eats? Where does she put them? Just curious….

CARDI B AND OFFSET: A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN?

Cardi B and Offset have the same taste in jewelry and often wear each other’s diamonds. We are particularly amused by the accessories they wore to Drake’s Super Bowl party. Cardi is flashing a diamond Playboy bunny on her diamond chain because she has been named the first ever Playboy Creative Director and will be contributing to a new platform called CENTERFOLD. Playboy says she is ”the embodiment of the Playboy brand.” Offset, on the other hand, is wearing a diamond Jesus head under his Thom Browne sweater – perhaps because he has been arrested a number of times and served time in prison on gun and drug charges.

HEY, MACHINE GUN KELLY – HOW ABOUT A KISS?

Last October, Angelina Jolie showed up at the premier of The Eternals wearing a gold metal band that connected her lower lip to her chin. It was NOT a dental appliance. No one had seen such a piece of jewelry before and universally wondered if she could speak normally or drink or eat while wearing the thing. Turns out it’s called a custom lip cuff and was made by Nina Berenato, a jeweler in Austin. Machine Gun Kelly was the next to show up in a lip cuff – and his was considerably more extravagant and featured Dolce & Gabbana’s initials. We STILL don’t know if he can talk or eat while wearing this silly thing…but at least it’s removable.

SCOTT DISICK KNOWS HOW TO IMPRESS HIS TEENAGE GIRLFRIEND

Kourtney Kardashian’s ex-husband Scott Disick, 38, is totally enjoying his romance with 19 year old Amelia Hamlin– certainly he feels like THE MAN IN CHARGE of this affair. Unlike the Kardashians, Amelia’s famous family has not been butting into their relationship. Scott has already taken Amelia to Miami twice for vacations and he knows she loves to shop. In the last two days they have visited two expensive jewelry stores in Miami (what was bought remains a mystery.) On their last trip Scott hired ARMED security guards to escort them to the store – and presumably attract maximum attention. Looks like he is smitten…

KHLOE WANTS TO KNOW WHO TOOK THE JEWELRY – SO DO WE!

article-2523500lamarkcut

Leave it to a Kardashian to claim $250,000 worth of jewelry is MISSING from a house they sold months ago. Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom put their house up for sale in November and it was reportedly bought by “Big Bang Theory” star Kaley Cuoco. The whole story is VERY fishy. Khloe and Lamar moved OUT. The place has been vacant for a month and various workers have been in and out doing repairs, as well as film crew and staff. There was no forced entry. Khloe supposedly discovered the loss – gold chains and watches (sounds like men’s jewelry) recently when she went to pack up the last of her possessions. But WHY would anyone in their right mind leave jewelry behind when they sell a house and move OUT? Could Lamar have pawned the stuff in a moment of desperation? Is this an insurance scam? According to TMZ, Khloe wants EVERYONE who was in the house to take a lie detector test! Police are wasting their precious time investigating this “crime.” (Above, Once upon a time… Khloe and Lamar were happy)

LINDSAY LOHAN HAS A JOB IN BRAZIL

Excited Brazilians mobbed Lindsay Lohan when she arrived at Sao Paolo Airport. She just finished her stint on Anger Management and E! says she left the set wearing bracelets she wore when filming her scene. Hmmm. Nobody knows if they were a gift or a lift. Lindsay is being paid (six figures) to promote a clothing line in Brazil and we bet she’ll return with plenty of samples…

WHY RYAN SEACREST KISSED JULIANNE HOUGH GOODBYE

Interesting how Ryan Seacrest and Julianne Hough just announced that they have gone their separate ways so soon (one day) after she claimed she was robbed of $100,000 worth of jewelry he gave her. The valuables were stolen from her car while she was visiting “a friend” at an apartment complex and she’s not sure if she locked the car door. (No sign of forced entry?) There’s more to this than meets the eye. Why would anyone in their right mind drive around with valuable jewelry (possibly visible) in their car and FORGET to lock it? Certainly Ryan must be insulted by her casual attitude toward his gifts. Or maybe he wasn’t happy about whomever Julianne was “visiting.” There are many possibilities and they are all unsavory. We’d love to know what’s been going on between these two.
