Tell Alls

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Ellen DeGeneres made news with her new Netflix standup comedy special where she eats crow and fesses up to not always being “nice.” We just heard there’s a reason for her about-face. Ellen caught wind that one of her former staffers was shopping around a tell all book, promising to reveal never before heard accusations of how nasty Ellen’s behavior WAS at times. That’s one reason she owned up to sometimes being less than kind, to say the least.

Sean Diddy Combs continued to dominate the headlines this week as more civil lawsuits have been filed against him – the latest one accusing him of rape. We are hearing though that the most SALACIOUS lawsuit is still on the way and it involves a MAJOR celebrity. A back room secret settlement deal was in the works but fell apart once Diddy was arrested so now then most shocking of all lawsuits is likely to be filed shortly unless the settlement can be revived.

Back on September 6 we told you that Nikki Bella was the aggressor in her domestic violence claim against her husband, dancer Artem Chigvinstev, and lo and behold, THAT was likely the reason charges against Artem weren’t filed. We just heard that Artem intends to play hardball and go after Nikki for spousal support and joint custody – he is going to claim he sacrificed his career in Hollywood since she insisted on moving to Napa, California. But wait, there might be hope. Another insider says that the couple might give their marriage another chance as some members of their inner circle are encouraging them to once again go back to marriage counseling.

Speaking of tell-alls, we just heard this scoop. Richard Simmons’ former housekeeper and longtime confidant, Teresa Reveles is threatening to write a tell all and reveal all of Richard’s intimate secrets, including his rumored penchant for cross dressing and his sexuality! Teresa feels Richard’s surviving family, including his brother Lenny, are treating her unfairly considering she lived with Richard and took care of him for almost 40 years. Let’s just say this housekeeper knows where the bodies are buried and she has more than a dustpan to dig them air. Sign us up for a copy of this book if she does decide to tell all.

Finally, professional liar Donald Trump had the audacity to question his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris’ cognitive skills. The 78-year-old nutjob, who seems to be confused more often than not, just opened up a can of worms by going after Kamala’s mental acumen. We just heard that a group of MEGA WEALTHY donors are teaming up to challenge Trump to take a cognitive test against Kamala and if beats her they will give him TENS of MILLIONS of DOLLARS! The group includes Mark Cuban among others. Let’s face it, the odds of Trump beating Kamala in a cognitive test are about the same as he beating her in a beauty contest. IMPOSSIBLE.

MATTHEW PERRY’S ASSISTANT IS READY TO TELL ALL

Matthew Perry’s longtime live-in assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa pleaded guilty to a charge in his death and now he’s leaning on the cast of Friends to come to his defense. While the alleged drug dealers, doctors, and enablers were also charged, Kenneth quickly cooperated with authorities and pled guilty, hoping for no jail time. Here’s why. Kenneth worked for Matthew for 25 years and saw him through countless battles of addiction. Although he admitted to injecting Matthew with Ketamine, he was only doing so at Matthew’s request, (after all, it’s hard to say no to the boss when your income and housing are at stake!) According to my source, Kenneth’s legal team is hoping to get the his former Friends costars to write letters in his defense, because they reportedly have seen Matthew be demanding and abusive to him while under the influence of drugs. And get ready for this: if he is sentenced to jail, Kenneth is thinking about writing a book about the quarter of a century he spent working with Matthew. As my source put it, he definitely knows where the bodies are buried, and he has a shovel ready to dig up the dirt.

WILL SHILOH REVEAL TRUTH ABOUT BRAD PITT?

We’ve always known Brad Pitt to be a nice guy, but will his oldest lookalike daughter, Shiloh, change our opinion of him? Shiloh just turned 18 and one of the first things she’s doing is dropping Pitt from her last name – moving forward she’ll be known as Shiloh Jolie. According to a source, Shiloh‘s mom Angelina Jolie has been under a gag order not to speak ill of Brad or reveal exactly what he did on that private jet that caused their marriage to end. Shiloh, however, is under no such order, and my source says that her distain for her father runs so deep that she’s planning to tell ALL now that she’s legally an adult. My source adds this won’t be pretty for Brad, and he COULD get added to the ever growing list of CANCELLED celebrities.

WHY WE LOVE GEORGE SANTOS

He never ceases to amaze us. Now that George Santos made the history books by getting expelled from Congress in a rare bipartisan vote on December 1, the disgraced ex-congressman from NY is ready to start CASHING IN! A well placed media source reveals George is shopping around an EXCLUSIVE interview where he is promising to drop MAJOR bombshells for the right price. George is hoping to start the bidding at $100,000 for the sit-down chat. HOURS after his expulsion, George had an associate calling around trying to drum up interest with the various journalists and networks, but so far there have been no takers.

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO KELLY LEBROCK’S TELL-ALL BOOK?

A few years ago, Weird Science star Kelly LeBrock revealed that she was writing a book about her life and promised details about her toxic marriage to Steven Seagal, which ended when he got their nanny pregnant. (Kelly said she waited until her children were grown to talk about their father.) At that time he had already been accused of sexual improprieties (including rape) and since then, many more women have come forward with charges of sexual misconduct and assault. But the book never materialized! Was Kelly pressured by her creepy ex NOT to write it? Will we EVER know the truth?

BOBBY BROWN IS SELLING HIS TELL-ALL BOOK WITH A SIDE OF BBQ SAUCE

Bobby Brown was at the Leimert Park Village Book Fair this weekend signing copies of his sexy tell-all “Every Little Step.” The book is so packed with sexual encounters that the Daily News suggested it should have been titled “Every Little Schtup!” After a sexcapade in a recording studio bathroom, Bobby declared that Madonna was “too wild for me!” In addition to his own affairs, Bobby wrote a lot about his ex-wife Whitney Houston’s drug use and flings with men AND women. Besides books, Bobby was also selling his own BBQ sauce and seasoning at the fair. Who knew he could cook?

SCIENTOLOGY LEADER DAVID MISCAVIGE WANTS YOUR RESPECT!

Tom Cruise has been spending most of his time in the UK and suddenly it might not seem so inviting. Tom’s very close friend David Miscavige has his panties in a knot because his own father is publishing an anti-Scientology book there. (Of course, we LOVE him for that!) The sensational book is called “Ruthless: Scientology, My Son David Miscavige, and Me.” Scientology leader David Miscavige has already hired an expensive anti- defamation law firm there and he’s hoping to scare the publishers into chickening out, as has happened so often before. But the libel laws have softened in the UK, and hopefully the publishers will stand their ground. The Hollywood Reporter published the threatening legal letter taken from Tony Ortega’s website. We were especially amused by this statement: “As the leader of a worldwide religion, our client (David Miscavige) is entitled to an appropriate degree of respect.”

NICK CANNON ISN’T ABOVE SPILLING SOME SECRETS ABOUT MARIAH CAREY

Nick Cannon seems to be having a LOT more fun single than his estranged wife Mariah Carey. The divorce is heating up with Nick demanding custody of their twins and a 30 million dollar pay-off. Mariah insists that she will only give him 10 million according to their pre-nup. So what did Nick do? He made a deal to write a tell-all about their marriage with publisher Simon and Schuster, according to The Daily Mail. Mariah’s extravagant idiosyncrasies and self-indulgent behavior is bound to make VERY interesting reading.

JUSTIN BIEBER WAS IN CAHOOTS WITH GIRLFRIEND OFFERING SCOOP TO TABLOIDS

0123-chantel-jeffri#1812cut

We weren’t surprised to hear that Justin Bieber’s “glamour” model girlfriend Chantel Jeffries was rumored to be offering her “story” to tabloid magazines and TV shows for $20,000. We think she was doing it with Justin’s blessing. As long as the story made him look good, it was OK. Sometimes celebrities realize that money can be made this way and they are amused at the prospect. They LIKE to see their girlfriends or relatives cash in. Especially if the scoop is flattering. But of course nice stories don’t pay as much as naughty exposes – maybe that’s why Kardashian lookalike Chantel couldn’t make a deal.

A BALDWIN FAMILY TELL-ALL SOUNDS LIKE A FUN READ

When someone announces they‘e writing a tell-all book about a celebrity, we always wonder if they are hoping for a pay off to keep them quiet and that the book will never be written. We hope that doesn’t happen with this family expose about the Baldwin brothers Alec, Daniel, Stephen and Billy! It sounds so juicy! Two people who worked for matriarch Carol Baldwin’s breast cancer charity in the 90’s say her mouth never stopped, and she talked endlessly about her kids. She also liberally bashed Alex’s ex Kim Basinger. According to RadarOnline the writers promise that the Baldwin family is more like “trailer trash” than an acting dynasty. Do we hear Alex pulling out his wallet? (Above, Alec and Stephen at a tennis match)
