Steven Speilberg

WHEN YOU’RE A JET, YOU’RE A JET ALL THE WAY, FROM YOUR FIRST CIGARETTE, TO YOUR LAST DYING DAY…

Don’t know WHAT to think about the news that Steven Spielberg is planning to film a remake of West Side Story. The original was SO colorful and fabulous. We will never forget that life-changing moment when George “Bernardo” Chakiris, in that purple shirt, and great posture, appeared at the big dance. It resulted in a lifetime attraction to Latinos in purple shirts. Years later we met George and he still had that dancer’s physique. Very nice man. What can Steven Spielberg possibly have in mind that will improve this movie? We’ll try to keep an open mind… (Above, George Chakiris and Natalie Wood)

IN HAPPIER TIMES

We’re dying to find out what on earth Steven Spielberg DID – or didn’t do – to get Oprah’s goat. And did Tom Cruise have anything to do with it? The two moguls have been best pals for years – every since Spielberg gave Oprah her big acting break in The Color Purple. Nowadays there’s such bad blood between them that you won’t even catch them in the same room together and Oprah will NOT talk about it. Many of Oprah’s celebrity pals showed up for the premier of her play The Color Purple. Not Steven. Recently Spielberg was honored at the Chicago Film Festival with a Lifetime Achievement Award and many stars flew in from LA, but Oprah , who lives in Chicago, couldn’t be bothered. She refused to attend or participate – fueling rumors about this secret feud.
