LUCY HALE: KATY KEENE IS GONE, BUT HERE COMES ETHEL!

This is by far the sweetest celebrity photo we’ve seen this week. Lucy Hale, who starred in the ill-fated series Katy Keene, was spotted leaving #wagmorepets in Studio City where she just adopted her new puppy Ethel. Ethel has a big brother named Elvis at home waiting to meet her. We were sorry to see the Katy Keene show fail. The comic book Katy Keene was one of VERY few inspiring female main characters in comic books in our childhood. Katy was an ambitious model and aspiring fashion designer living a glamorous life in New York, with lots of boyfriends. Readers were invited to send in designs of their own for Katy to wear and some appeared in the comic, with credits for the amateur designers. She was the woman we wanted to grow up to be. Come to think of it, we did.

KAIA GERBER FOUND A GOOD REPLACEMENT FOR PETE DAVIDSON

What do nice girls do during a pandemic? They foster puppies, of course. Kaia Gerber, 18, credits the Labelle Foundation for providing her with an adorable pandemic companion. How she could NOT adopt such a cutie is hard to imagine. Celebrities always have first choice of the most desirable – and manageable- canines at rescue places in California. Ordinary people have to settle for the more difficult acquisitions.

THIS LUCKY PUP HAS A GREAT LIFE AHEAD OF HIM

Selena Gomez and her boyfriend The Weeknd spent some time this weekend playing with puppies at Citipups in New York. Apparently there was one puppy they couldn’t get out of their minds. Finally they broke down and Selena sent her assistant to pick up this Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and bring it home to Selena’s apartment. We wonder if they’re adopting together…

Apparently no one told Ben Affleck that it’s FUN to get a new puppy and go shopping for dog supplies. Ben flew to Atlanta to visit the kids while his estranged wife Jennifer Garner is filming there. He arrived scowling, but carrying an adorable golden retriever puppy and of course, the kids were thrilled. Soon after that surprise, Ben and Violet went shopping at a local pet store for dog necessities and Ben STILL wasn’t smiling. He looks like he’s going to a funeral.The least he can do is fake it for the kids.

BRITNEY SPEARS BOUGHT A SICK DOG AT THE PET STORE- WHAT’S WRONG WITH HER?

It’s evident that Britney Spears still doesn’t have a 100% grip on reality. She actually went to a pet shop that buys from puppy mills and BOUGHT herself another dog! SO wrong in so many ways! Last fall she purchased her tiny teacup Yorkie Hannah for $1800 from the Barkworks pet store in Thousand Oaks. This chain of pet shops has had their West side store closed down due to sick animals and the Better Business Bureau gave them an F. Needless to say, animal activists have been slamming the store’s policies. Since Britney bought Hannah, the dog has been hospitalized three times with kidney and lung problems, according to RadarOnline. She’s currently in the hospital and not doing well, but fortunately Britney can afford the thousands of dollars in medical bills. Still, we wonder if Brit has learned any kind of lesson here. We also wonder how her split with fiance Jason Trawick will affect her state of mind.

ICE -T AND COCO HAVE THEIR OWN LITTLE SPARTACUS

Ice-T’s glamorous wife Coco dropped by the “Law & Order” set (in her white Cadillac) and brought their new baby- a tiny four week old bulldog puppy. Coco can’t get enough of her little “Spartacus.” Hopefully her husband won’t get jealous because the puppy’s getting all the cuddling. Spartacus was the talk of the set and he was introduced to a full grown bulldog but they didn’t make a connection.

MILEY CYRUS TAKES HER PUPPY EVERYWHERE

One sure way to get your picture taken is to walk around carrying an adorable dog.Miley Cyrus bought a fuzzy puppy to match her fuzzy shoulderbag and took them both to the Maxfield clothing store on Melrose. We can just imagine the warm welcome she got from those uppity salespeople when she brought her not yet housebroken little friend into their ultra-fancy store. They probably couldn’t get the newspapers down fast enough.

WE LOVE KATE BECKINSALE’S PUPPY, BUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THE LAST ONE?

Kate Beckinsale survived the exasperating and badly scripted movie “Whiteout,” and maybe this adorable puppy was her consolation prize. We are a little concerned because just a year ago we saw Kate with an equally beautiful blond cocker spaniel puppy. That one grew up and hasn’t been seen again. Hopefully he’s living happily ever after…..
