Justin Theroux

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Travis Kelce and his brother Jason made headlines this week with their $100 million podcast deal with Amazon, but we just heard, however, that their payday will substantially INCREASE if they persuade Travis’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, to appear on the show. No surprise there. Taylor’s presence at NFL games last season pulled in tons of new viewers, and the thinking behind the bonus incentive is that Taylor can do the same for the podcast.

Justin Theroux was talked about this week when we heard about his engagement to actress Nicole Bloom. We know this: Before Justin and Nicole announced their engagement, he reached out to his former wife, Jennifer Aniston, and broke the news to her himself. According to my well placed source, Justin and Jen remain good friends even though their marriage didn’t last, and that’s why he gave her the heads up. She is genuinely happy that he’s found someone to share his life with, so don’t fall for the soon-to-be tabloid stories claiming she’s distraught. She’s not!

This week Armie Hammer was all over the news when he revealed he was selling his beloved truck because he couldn’t afford the gas. Loyal readers will remember we were the first to report about his financial struggles. We just heard this interesting update: Now that Armie has a regular car, he’s planning to make some money as an Uber driver! As shocking as that sounds, remember, Armie previously held a job selling timeshares. According to my source, Arnie’s incredibly wealthy family isn’t helping him, so he’s determined to prove to them, and to the world, that he doesn’t need their financial support.

Who is surprised that narcissistic Donald Trump was in the news yet again for more bad behavior? This time Donald made headlines for his inappropriate conduct at Arlington National Cemetery where he turned a solemn moment into a manufactured political stunt. Donald may not be too happy to find out what we just heard. One of the families of the soldiers buried there is gearing up to sue him and his campaign for the unauthorized photography of the grave. That is strictly for prohibited by national law.

In unpleasant news, Dancing With The Stars regular Artem Chigvintsev made headlines when he was arrested and charged with domestic violence and spousal abuse. Not a fun subject to gossip about, but nonetheless here’s what we know. The argument between Artem and his wife (and assumed victim) Nikki Garcia aka Nikki Bella that started the incident was over an infidelity. Our source didn’t know who accused who of cheating, but that was rumored to be what caused the situation to escalate and reportedly get physical.

And finally our gal Kamala Harris made the news for making news! She granted her first interview since becoming the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate to CNN and we just heard this. She’s lining up more sit-downs with other networks, including the conservative FOX News. Expect to see her upcoming interviews after the September presidential debate.

JUSTIN THEROUX AND KUMA ILLUSTRATE NEW YORK TODAY

We’ve all seen the summer version of Justin Theroux walking his dog Kuma – with considerably less clothing on. This winter photo says everything about New York today after 18 inches of snow. The city is not accustomed to such extreme weather, but Justin seems prepared. Paparazzi STILL spotted Justin despite only about two inches of skin on his forehead showing. Maybe it’s Kuma. Not only does Kuma have a leather jacket but he has a set of black boots to match Justin’s style. Just one question: SUNGLASSES in this weather?

JUSTIN THEROUX BOUGHT HIS BEST FRIEND A LEATHER JACKET

The more we see Justin Theroux walking around New York with his beloved dog Kuma, the more we realize how much he and Jennifer Aniston have in common. Their split a few years ago was smooth and totally without rancor. Similar to Jen’s divorce from Brad Pitt– not one bad word or accusation, very civilized in spite of difficult circumstances. Interestingly, neither Jen or Justin has been photographed with new romances- only with their dogs. Justin is obviously as in love with his dog as Jennifer is with hers. Kuma is always by Justin’s side and today he’s wearing his black leather jacket. Not many guys buy their dogs clothing!

JUSTIN THEROUX AND HIS CONSTANT COMPANION

If Jennifer Aniston is wondering what her ex Justin Theroux has been up to during social isolation – apparently not a whole lot. Justin posted a series of photos of himself and his dog Kuma spending LOTS of time together. (Looks like no new girlfriends yet) Justin was on the verge of starting the new series he’s producing and starring in for Apple TV when everything was put on hold for the pandemic. The Mosquito Coast is about an idealistic inventor who uproots his family and moves them to the Honduran jungle. Conveniently, it was a novel written by Justin’s uncle, Paul Theroux.

JUSTIN THEROUX CHECKS OUT WHAT’S LEFT OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD

We would love to know what Justin Theroux is thinking in this photo. He is walking through Soho with his dog Kuma looking at the horrible damage done last night to the businesses there. Are police absent while all the vandalizing and looting is going on in New York like they are in Los Angeles? Justin is wearing a powerful looking mask and gloves and taking no chances, as he sadly checks out the pointless destruction.

JUSTIN THEROUX IS BEING CLOSELY WATCHED

Tabloids are keeping a VERY close eye on Justin Theroux because they are frantic to catch him dating someone – preferably a sexy young actress like Selena Gomez (those rumors already circulated and died.) The tabs don’t really care much about Justin himself, but they are DYING to write stories about “Heartbroken Jennifer Aniston” because she REALLY sells magazines. Every time she breaks up with a guy, Jennifer has to endure those fake “pity” stories- even if SHE dumped HIM! Actually she’s living a great life without Justin, and she’s one of the luckiest and happiest women in Hollywood.

JUSTIN THEROUX KNOWS HOW TO BE LEFT ALONE

Sometimes Justin Theroux would rather NOT be recognized and have people stop him and ask for selfies. He knows exactly how to make himself appear distant and unapproachable in New York while walking his dog. His subtle technique: beard, hat, and sunglasses, ordinary clothing, and an earbud. Looks like almost any other guy on the street…

JENNIFER ANISTON AND COURTENEY COX HAVE RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS – BUT NOT WITH EACH OTHER

Now that Jennifer Aniston’s “marriage” has dissolved, she has more time to spend with her best friend Courteney Cox, even though Courteney still has a fiancé. (Jen’s ex Justin Theroux has been hanging out with Emma Stone.) Courtney’s long distance relationship with Irish musician Johnny McDaid is highly problematic. In 2016, Courteney and Johnny broke their engagement because he wasn’t happy living in Los Angeles with her. He wants to live in Dublin. Courteney loves LA and her daughter Coco’s father is here. They ARE back together, but living far apart with occasional weekend visits. So Jen and her Friends costar have a lot to talk about…

JENNIFER ANISTON AND JUSTIN THEROUX WERE NEVER MARRIED

When Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux announced their separation in February, they released a carefully worded statement that they had amicably “parted ways” in December after almost three years together. TMZ searched for, and never found, any evidence of a marriage license. Beverly Hills lawyers can stop waiting by the phone because Jen and Justin will not be calling. Apparently the marriage ceremony they had at their home with friends was not actually legal. So they won’t be tormented by expensive courtroom issues. It’s just OVER. Very sensible and modern.

Above, Jennifer at a charity event this week – she hurt her wrist – that isn’t a fashion statement on her arm.

JUSTIN THEROUX AND JENNIFER ANISTON: SMARTER THAN YOU THOUGHT?

To no one’s surprise, Justin Theroux is smoothly adjusting to being single in New York. He likes the idea of being a New York actor as opposed to a “Hollywood actor.” His serious writer and actor friends in the city call themselves “artists” – something down-to-earth Jennifer Aniston would not call herself. Justin hoped he and Jen would live half the time in his beloved Manhattan, but she was easily hounded by paparazzi there and never liked it. Their split may be simplified by the fact that they never legally married. (Remember, they announced they had “parted ways” with no mention of legal separation or divorce.) No marriage license has ever been located, so don’t expect any courtroom drama. If they DIDN’T legally marry, we give them both enormous credit for being realistic, unselfish, and thoroughly modern.
