HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW
Cher’s autobiography dominated the news this week as she’s been on an ambitious press tour to promote the tell-all, blandly titled Cher: The Memoir. Here’s what we know. Cher is secretly negotiating to turn her story into a MOVIE which SHE will produce and cast! And here’s the surprise: Cher has already reached out to Kim Kardashian (a fellow Armenian) to portray HER! It’s still in the very early planning stages, but we can reveal that interest is strong. Personally, we cannot IMAGINE Kim playing Cher, but stranger things have happened…
One of the biggest stories recently was that Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi were selling their Montecito, California estate and relocating to the English countryside because Trump won the election. Here’s what we know. The move was planned way BEFORE the votes were cast and tallied as Ellen decided she needed to take an extended break from Hollywood ever since getting canceled for being not so kind. This is the same strategy Ellen used decades ago when she came out as a lesbian and her career opportunities dried up – only that time she didn’t have the financial means to pack up and move overseas. Regardless of who wins the next presidential election, you can expect the gals to move back to the states after this 4 year or so hiatus and then Ellen will try to jumpstart her career.
Speaking of their Montecito estate, none other than Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are interested in buying it. The sprawling property is expected to fetch close to $100 million which is a tad too much for the working Royal and Meg. We are hearing that Harry is looking for creative ways to come up with the cash, possibly having the sale financed by Ellen herself. This is a strong possibility since Ellen is their friend. In another possible scenario, Harry and Meghan might rent the property for the next 4 years, and then Ellen and Portia can move back in when they return to the states.
Reality star Kendra Wilkinson made the news for claiming she’s been on a waiting list for 4 years to join the dating and networking app Raya. Here’s what we just heard. Kendra isn’t waiting around to meet guys as she recently engaged the services of a proven matchmaker who connects beautiful women with successful men. Kendra has already met a few potential suitors but so far hasn’t made a love connection, but she’s focused on finding a partner in 2025.
Ariana Grande continued to make news as her worldwide promotional campaign for Wicked is wrapping up since the much anticipated movie debuts this week. Here’s what we know. Ariana and her costar/boyfriend Ethan Slater are secretly ENGAGED, but the studio begged her to keep the big news hush hush until after the movie has been in theaters for a few weeks. The studio didn’t want the engagement to dominate the headlines and urged her to stay mum. Assuming the romance sticks (we all know Ariana can be fickle when it comes to matters of the heart) expect an engagement announcement between Christmas and Valentine’s Day.
Megan Fox’s pregnancy was still in the news (we had the scoop) and we just heard she’s been ordered on mostly bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy. As we previously reported Megan hasn’t had the easiest time with this pregnancy so she’s listening to her doctor’s instructions and taking it as easy as possible until she gives birth. We also hear she’s passing the time decorating a no expense spared very girly nursery for the little one including a custom made Chrome Hearts crib which costs $100,000!
