JENNIFER GARNER TO THE RESCUE

Add pet detective to Jennifer Garner’s resume. The actress found a lost Yorkshire Terrier wandering around her LA neighborhood recently. The pup was wearing a fancy designer collar and she quickly realized this was no stray. She captured it, dropped it off at a local animal hospital and then called the number on the tag, informing the heartbroken owners where their dog was. The dog belonged to an elderly couple and it had somehow escaped from the backseat of their SUV when the trunk accidentally opened. The couple picked up the pooch and insisted on leaving a reward for the Good Samaritan (since they no idea Jennifer was a celebrity.) When informed who the hero was, the couple still didn’t recognize the name, so they told the vet to let Jen donate the $500 to her favorite charity.

ORLANDO BLOOM IS BROKENHEARTED

It’s touching to see how distraught Orlando Bloom is over the loss of his poodle Mighty. The pup escaped somehow from his Montecito home on Wednesday and Orlando has been a wreck ever since. Orlando and Mighty were inseparable, and often rode his motorcycle together. He and fiancée Katy Perry put up dozens of signs offering $5000 reward for the return of Mighty. Katy has a lookalike pup named Nugget, supposedly from the same litter as Mighty, so the dogs are bonded like their owners. We noticed the warning on the sign “DO NOT CHASE” – we have a similar dog and they are skittish and tend to run VERY fast into the middle of the street when chased! We REALLY hope Orlando gets his micro-chipped and collared dog back! Small cute dogs are the LEAST likely to be returned!

HELP JEREMY RENNER FIND HIS LOST DOG!

We feel obliged to post this Lost Dog flyer for Jeremy Renner’s runaway French Bulldog Hemi. On July 19 there was a power failure at Jeremy’s house near Runyon Canyon and the gate opened, allowing the 1 year old pup to escape. Jeremy’s been scouring the neighborhood for his pet ever since. Incredibly, Hemi had a collar, but no tags or microchip. Jeremy is desperately posting these flyers all over offering a $5000 reward.

“LOST” STAR NAVEEN ANDREWS PLAYS PRINCESS DIANA’S TRUE LOVE IN “DIANA”

Here’s Naomi Watts on location filming her Princess Diana movie in the UK. The film deals with the last two years of Diana’s life, and centers around her romance with the “love of her life” – nope, it’s not the man she died with, Dodi Fayed. The man Diana called “Mr Wonderful” was a heart surgeon, Dr Hasnet Khan. At the inquest into Diana’s death, Khan testified that he broke off their two year romance a few months before her death. It’s believed he couldn’t bear all the media attention surrounding Diana. Lost star Naveen Andrews is playing Khan and he’s barely recognizable with his conservative haircut.

IN 1964 THE BEATLES CAME TO HOLLYWOOD

Rolling Stone featured some Lost Beatles photos in their last issue and we love this one from their first visit to Los Angeles. They arrived her in August, 1964, for their concert at the Hollywood Bowl. The Ambassador Hotel cancelled their reservations because they were afraid of the mobs of fans that followed The Beatles. British actor Reginald Owen saved the day and rented his Bel Air mansion (above) to them for the four days they were in town.

BARBARA HERSHEY AND NAVEEN ANDREWS: IT’S BEEN OVER FOR AWHILE

Barbara Hershey, 62, and “Lost” star Naveen Andrews,41, had a nice long run of 12 years together but it’s finally over. Their 21 year age difference made their longevity even more remarkable. In 2005, during a brief split, Naveen fathered a baby boy with another woman and Barbara still took him back. Recently, Naveen has been photographed spending more time with his little boy Naveen Joshua. He and Barbara actually split six months ago and didn’t bother to mention it.

WHAT HAYDEN PANETTIERE DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW

A few years ago Hayden Panettiere accused a photographer of “photoshopping” a cigarette into her hand. THAT’S how sensitive she is about the fact that she’s a closet smoker. Whenever she’s interviewed, the interviewer is warned NOT to bring up the subject of smoking. And she’s been supercareful around photographers. But since she turned 18, Hayden’s loosened up a bit. She was seen taking a smoke break outside a Hollywood club with Jesse McCartney. Being legal still doesn’t make it pretty.

DOMINIC MONAGHAN HAS ANOTHER BRUNETTE ON HIS MIND

Our friend Nelson Aspen observed some peculiar celebrity behavior at El Coyote on Saturday night. Lost star Dominic Monaghan was seated on the outside patio with an attractive long haired brunette who was NOT Evangeline Lilly. The pair chainsmoked and sipped margaritas but never ate a bite, not even the chips on their table. Their conversation was intense and very intimate. Outside at the valet pickup, people waiting for their cars couldn’t help but watch the couple clinging to each other – both were in tears. They kissed emotionally several times before leaving together in a black Toyota. Dominic is from the UK where it’s rumored that he and Evangeline are history. Maybe working together and dating too was just too much togetherness for the Lost stars.
