THE EMMYS WILL HONOR HAYDEN PANETTIERE

With less than a month before they air, The Emmys are scrambling to put together some sort of tribute to Hayden Panettiere.  According to my source, although it’s been less than a week since Hayden’s shocking death, some folks involved in the production of the award show , which honors television’s finest , are already brainstorming for the proper way to honor Hayden and her contributions to TV.  The current idea is a tribute featuring her former costars from Malcolm in the Middle, Heroes and Nashville.  These things take a lot of time to put together , but behind the scenes the work has started , so expect to see a special tribute to the late actress.

ROMEO BECKHAM STOLE VICTORIA’S FACE!

We were fascinated by this Instagram post of a photo of Victoria Beckham in her 20’s , beside a photo of her 23 year old son Romeo. Do THEY realize how much they look alike?

Step aside Pamela Anderson. The new Baywatch reboot star Brooks Nader is determined to be come the new Hollywood Bombshell! Brooks publicly flaunts the skimpiest clothing imaginable and she was even seen (and photographed) sunbathing topless on a yacht with her own father present.  She wore THIS barely there long red dress to an upscale Italian restaurant.  Do you find it appealing?

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

The biggest and saddest story of the week was the untimely death of former child star Hayden Pantierre from a suspected drug overdose.  Here’s what we know.  Some members from Hayden’s inner circle suspect there’s more to her death than an “accidental overdose” and have quietly started pooling their resources with plans to hire a private investigator to dig deeper into Hayden’s passing – and her tumultuous relationship with her on-again off-again  boyfriend Brian Hickerson.  My source says that some people feel there’s foul play involved and they are determined to honor Hayden by uncovering what exactly caused her death.

 

Another bombshell of the week was the news that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were hightailing it out of California and moving back to Britain.  We can tell you this.  As we previously reported, Meg and Harry went from being the toast of the town to not so popular and even their neighbor Oprah Winfrey started pulling away.  For now, the  former Royals have agreed to spend just one year there , and are keeping their Montecito, California estate as a backup plan  – in case life across the pond doesn’t work out for them.  They will reevaluate where they want to live after their kids finish one year of schooling in London.

 

Sandra Bullock made headlines after breaking her silence on a podcast about the death of her partner, Bryan Randall.  Sandra revealed that Bryan insisted she keep his ALS diagnosis a secret from all but a very select handful of people ,  including Jennifer Aniston.  Here’s what we know.  This was only step one of Sandy’s ALS plan, as she intends to become far more active in raising funds to find a cure.  My source says Sandra has some regret she didn’t speak out sooner , and is now determined to make up for lost time and use her star power to raise both awareness and donations.

 

Shia LeBeouf was in the news when it was revealed that despite some very public missteps , he’s still drinking – almost every day!  Shia made the revelation in court documents related to his criminal case in New Orleans.  We can tell you this.  While Shia doesn’t think he has a drinking problem, he now has a bodyguard accompanying him during his drinking sessions.  He still wants to have fun , but feels having some muscle by his side helps him avoid getting into bar fights.

 

Million Dollar Listing reality star Tracy Tutor made news when it was announced she’s joining the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.  Here’s what we know.  Tracy prepared for the show in the most Beverly Hills way possible, by getting a $250,000 facelift from a top 90210 plastic surgeon.  My source says that Tracy’s new face will be part of her storyline , and she even documented the surgery and recovery with numerous photographs to be shown on RHOBH.  (Were guessing the surgeon gave her a big discount in exchange for the publicity.)

 

Dakota Johnson was talked about when it was revealed she and her boyfriend Role Model had split up.  We can tell you this.  Behind very closed doors, Dakota has been talking to her former longtime boyfriend, musician Chris Martin.  A source close to the former couple predicts a reconciliation – and get this – a potential engagement is a very strong possibility!  The insider wouldn’t be surprised if they’re back together and even engaged before the upcoming winter holidays.

 

No surprise that Donald Trump made headlines,  but this time it was for something he DIDN’T say or do.  Donald was an item of discussion over his closeness to his executive assistant, Natalie Harp.  As more and more stories come out about just how involved they are, here’s what we know.  The working relationship isn’t sitting well with Donald’s wife, Melania Trump.  My source says she told Donald that while she’s glad he has a devoted assistant,  she doesn’t like the optics.  She also warned him that if anything inappropriate were to ever happen, she would make him pay a huge price.  Long story short, she told him not to embarrass her.

WHY WE DON’T LIKE BEARDS

Visual proof that good looking men should NOT grow beards! The first time we laid eyes on Jason Momoa  (before he married Lisa Bonet)  was at the Pasadena Flea Market , and we decided he was the best looking man we had EVER seen!  The more facial hair he added , the less gorgeous he has became…

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

Our former B+ list TV and movie star pretty much fell off the face of the earth.  She went from being the next “it girl” to being reduced to an answer on Trivial Pursuit.  Yes, she’s that irrelevant.  However, she still has bills to pay and she still looks pretty good.  She has a diehard fan from her heyday who she sees on a transactional basis.  He’s beyond smitten and  (lucky for her ) he’s incredibly wealthy and generous.  He gets to sleep with his fantasy girl and she gets enough cash to support her Hollywood lifestyle – since these days her acting jobs are few and far between and barely generate enough income to cover her rent.

 

GUESS WHO!!

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

Our former A-list couple shocked the world when they split up for the most outrageous of reasons. ( we can’t tell you the reason since that would be too obvious).  Nevertheless they split , and remained anything but friendly , since the wife was mortified that their seemingly happy marriage ended in divorce.  Apparently time heals all wounds , and they recently got together to deal with some retirement accounts they still share.  One thing led to another, and they wound up back in bed after some heavy drinking. Neither could deny that the sex was different , but nonetheless the chemistry was still there.  They’re not reconciling,  but have agreed to a “friends with benefits” situation since they’re both single.

 

GUESS WHO!!

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

Our A-list actor is more successful than he ever DREAMED of,  and his decades long career is still going strong.  Although he’s no spring chicken , he still looks remarkably good.  His life is pretty much picture-perfect , except for that one little thing – his less than impressive manhood.  That’s right, our guy has it all , except he was shortchanged in that one department.  His wife has never made a big deal out of his shortcomings since he provides her with a charmed life,  but nonetheless it’s always bothered him. He’s finally decided to do something about it , and after much research,  he found what he feels is the top specialist to perform an enlargement surgery.  The doc is in Germany and the recovery time can take weeks , so he’s planning to spend his holidays there , and will pretend it’s for a family vacation.

 

GUESS WHO!!

HEY- ISN’T THAT JENNIFER LAWRENCE?

Ten years ago, Jennifer Lawrence was the hottest and highest paid actress in Hollywood. (She’s also a feminist) She was nominated for numerous acting awards and even won an Oscar for Silver Linings Playbook.  Then she fell in love and married New York gallery director Cooke Maroney , and they have two sons that seem to be keeping her busy and happy. She managed to squeeze in a Martin Scorsese movie this year – What Happens at Night- described as a “marriage horror story” – no release date yet…meanwhile, she and her cute family are often seen navigating the streets of New York.

WHO WILL PLAY LUIGI MANGIONE ON FILM?

Now that Luigi Mangione has pled guilty, we want to remind you that we were the FIRST AND ONLY site to tell you that last December the race heated up for WHO will play him.  According to my inside source, the issue has become a thing for the Jenner sisters, Kendall and Kylie, and here’s why:    Kendall’s boyfriend Jacob Elordi and Kylie’s guy Timothee Chalamet are both itching to land the rights to the story and play Luigi.  Coincidentally , both guys were nominated for an Academy Award this year but neither won , and they each feel this part could be the one that gets them the gold.  (Oscar voters seem to favor these types of roles for recognition).  It’s become a little issue between the sisters , since they each want to support their guy , so it will be interesting to see if either gets the plum part -and how if affects their family dynamics.
