JESSICA SIMPSON: HER THIRD WEDDING ATTEMPT

Here we go again. For the THIRD time, Jessica Simpson has hired top wedding planner Mindy Weiss to organize her nuptials and paid her a deposit of $150,000 in advance. She forfeited the first two deposits when she canceled because she was pregnant. If she doesn’t lose as much weight as she hopes to, Jessica MIGHT have to cancel the upcoming May ceremony again – losing a total of $450.000. But the money is no big deal to her – it’s a drop in the bucket because of her huge income.

SORRY BARBRA, BETTE MIDLER’S GOT THE LAST LAUGH!

#barbrastreisand #bettemidler #janetcharlton

Barbra Streisand can’t be thrilled that her holiday release movie “The Guilt Trip” (with Seth Rogan) has been pretty much a flop while Bette Midler’s movie, “Parental Guidance,” with Billy Crystal is a hit. “The Guilt Trip” cost 40 million to make and has only taken in around 31 million. “Parental Guidance” was made for 25 million and is expected to take in 70 million plus. Both movies obviously appeal to the older generation, but Seth Rogan halfheartedly promoted “The Guilt Trip” to HIS generation. Billy Crystal tirelessly promoted “Guidance” to an older generation and it even landed on an AARP cover. Bingo. We figure that icons Barbra Streisand and Bette Midler are more than a teensy bit competitive and Bette couldn’t be happier.
