TAYLOR SWIFT ROLLS OUT THE RED CARPET FOR THE ROYALS

Taylor Swift’s London concerts were the place to be as everyone from Tom Cruise, Travis Kelce and Prince William with his two oldest children showed up. Williams’s wife, Kate Middleton couldn’t make it since she’s still recovering, and was told to avoid large crowds. Not only did Taylor pose for photos with William and the happy kids, she also recorded a personalized video for Kate, wishing her a speedy recovery and promising her the best seats in the house for any of her future concerts when she recovers! And that’s not all, Taylor also gave Prince George and Princess Charlotte bags of concert swag, which she signed for the starstruck kids.

RIHANNA WANTS TO BE CLOSER TO BARBADOS

Rihanna is gearing up to make a major change in her life. Although she owns multiple properties in the Los Angeles area, Rihanna is now looking to uproot her family and relocate to Greenwich, Connecticut. According to my source, Rihanna’s been spending more and more time on the East Coast, but the deciding factor is that it’s five hours closer to her homeland of Barbados. Rihanna can get home in less than five hours via private jet from NYC, but it takes twice that amount of time from LA. Rihanna wants her children to grow up part of the time in Barbados, and part of the time of the USA. During her recent stay to New York she snuck away to nearby Greenwich, touring homes in the $25 million range.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

The season three finale of Hacks just dropped on the streaming service MAX and we have some good scoop on the highly acclaimed and popular show. Although it hasn’t been announced, season 4 is a go and you can expect to see all of the familiar faces, even those who appear just briefly. According to our source, series star Jean Smart makes a conscious effort to ensure even the smallest characters have enough lines so they can continue with their SAG/AFTRA benefits. As my source puts it, Jean is not only the matriarch on the show, but she’s taken on a motherly role to the cast.

The verdict is in and Donald Trump was found GUILTY on all 34 criminal charges making him a convicted felon, and we just heard this interesting tidbit: As we previously reported, Melania Trump stayed away from the courthouse and our inside source reveals WHY. It was her psychic advisor who told her to keep her distance! Apparently Melania consults her psychic before making major life decisions, interestingly enough, this mimics another former First Lady, Nancy, Reagan, whose friendship with psychics made headlines back in the 1980s. Melania’s medium told her nothing good would come if she attended the trial, and apparently she was right!

The late but not so great O.J. Simpson made headlines after a new $500,000 tax lien came to light. According to our source, O.J’s two kids with his late wife, Nicole Simpson, Sydney and Justin are collaborating on a reality show based on everything they know and what they suspect. My source says the kids are scrambling to make money now that OJ’s dead, as he financially helped them. The untitled project hasn’t found a home yet, but is being shopped around to streaming services. We will keep you posted.

Paris Hilton made headlines yet again for another mishap with her young son. A few weeks ago she was taken to task for posting a photo of her son incorrectly placed in a car seat and now once again she made headlines posting a photo of her son wearing a lifejacket that was on backwards. According to our source, the new mom is trying her best, but really doesn’t have much practical experience with babies, so she recently hired a private tutor to teach her the ABC’s of motherhood. Our source says that Paris hasn’t doesn’t want to make any more public errors when it comes to her kids, so the tutor is showing her ins and outs. Our source reveals that Paris has already spent $10,000 on her parental training.

And finally, Nicki Minaj made headlines as she was arrested in Amsterdam over a soft drug related charge. Although she was released with just a small fine, our inside source reveals the whole thing doesn’t pass the sniff test. Because of the delay, Nikki missed her show in Manchester, England, but our source points out that the venue was FAR from sold out, and can’t help but wonder if the entire incident was manufactured to save Nicki the embarrassment of performing in a non-packed arena.

CAN OPRAH PUT CHER’S FAMILY BACK TOGETHER?

Cher is Turning 78-years-old on May 20, and all she wants for her birthday is to reconcile with her kids, Chaz and Elijah Blue. Now here’s where it gets interesting. Cher has turned to her longtime pal, Oprah Winfrey, for help! Cher and Oprah go back for decades, developing a friendship after numerous appearances on Oprah’s former daytime talk show. In fact, Cher and her then daughter Chastity who later transitioned into Chaz, appeared on Oprah to talk about their complicated mother/daughter relationship. Oprah has advised Cher through the years, so once again she’s turned to her for help on how to put her family back together. Don’t be too surprised if it happens, and we expect to see Cher and her kids talking about it on one of Oprah’s regular television interview specials.

BEYONCE IS JUST ANOTHER CARPOOLING MOM

When you think of carpooling parents you might not think of Beyoncé, but as unbelievable as it sounds, she’s actually one of them. Beyoncé’s kids attend a private school in LA (we aren’t naming the school or the location for privacy) but nonetheless you will love this item. The school has a strict “no nanny” policy – meaning all children MUST be dropped off and picked up by a parent or legal guardian. The pricey school is popular with celebrity parents along with movers and shakers, so Beyoncé has joined a carpool. Either she or Jay Z take turns shuffling a group of kids to school along with a group of other A-list parents. Tuition can run $50,000 per year for the elementary school, but even with the high price tag the rule is set in stone with no exceptions, EVER!

A LITTLE GRUMBLING AFTER LEGEND WEEKEND IN ITALY

We couldn’t resist sharing one last tidbit from our exclusive scoop about Chrissy Teigen and John Legend‘s wedding renewal ceremony in Lake Como, Italy last weekend. According to our spy, a few guests were surprised that Chrissy and John brought along their children when the invitation specifically instructed guests NOT to bring their kids. The problem? Guests were expected to pay for their own airfare, ground transportation and accommodations, and with rooms at the resort going for over $6000 a night, the tab easily added up. My source says that some guests were miffed that they shelled out so much money to attend, and were forced to leave their kids at home with sitters. “It’s one thing to say no kids allowed if John and Chrissy were picking up the tab for everything, but it’s borderline obnoxious to ban kids and still expect people to pay their own way,” the insider explains.

GEORGE CLOONEY CAN’T STOP RAVING ABOUT MARRIED LIFE

Can you think of even ONE celebrity couple that seems to be HAPPIER than George and Amal Clooney? He rhapsodizes about his life in every interview. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that both have jobs that keep them busy. When Summer comes, they always try to spend several weeks together at their Lake Como home in Italy with their 6 year old twins Ella and Alexander. We rarely get a glimpse of the kids, but they DO look awfully cute on this boat at Lake Como this week.

OFFSET IS AN INSPIRATION FOR RAPPER DADS

This was a surprise: Rapper Offset brought his two daughters Kalea,8, and Kulture,4, to the premiere of The Little Mermaid in LA and his wife Cardi B was nowhere in sight. Usually when we see Offset out socially he has a fierce look on his face, but he actually SMILED for many photos on this night with his kids. He’s setting a good example for rapper dads. The little girls are dressed up in fancy ball gowns with trains and all. It couldn’t have been easy for Dad, leading them around all evening in those big dresses! A sweet gesture, but we’re not sure we approve of false eyelashes for little girls…thanks to Cardi B, no doubt.

KANYE PUT THE CART BEFORE THE HORSE

Although their marriage doesn’t appear to be official yet, “newlyweds” Kayne West and Bianca Censori are planning to start a family and she might already be pregnant! A friend of the architect turned housewife reveals that Bianca had to agree to have kids as part of her “marriage” with Kanye. Here’s the kicker… Kanye insisted they have a custody agreement already in place which guarantees HE gets physical custody of any offspring and Bianca gets visitation and a hefty amount of child support. Kanye has ranted and raved since his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian was awarded custody of their kids, including the right to choose the schools they attend. THIS time around Kanye was proactive and had a custody agreement in place BEFORE the “wedding.”

GEORGE CLOONEY HOPES TO RAISE HIS KIDS IN CALIFORNIA

George Clooney and his wife Amal and their twins have been happy living at their villa in Italy, but he really yearns to raise their children in California. George has a sprawling Studio City home he’s owned since the 90’s and he spent a lot of money renovating, but Amal is in no hurry to move in. She dreams of either living in a place like Montecito with ocean views, or a large property in someplace like Hidden Hills with enough land for horses. George’s home has neither. Nothing has been decided about selling or buying, but George has consulted a realtor friend about his options.
