SURI CRUISE IS READY FOR HIGHER EDUCATION

Suri Cruise, 18, spent the last few days saying goodbye to all her school friends in New York because she’s due to check in at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh this weekend as a freshman. Chances are, most of her fellow students won’t realize who she is because she’s sensibly using the name Suri Noelle. While all the parents are dropping off their freshman kids, Suri’s mother, Katie Holmes, will be there kissing her goodbye, but NOT her father Tom Cruise. (He DID have time to appear at the Olympics!) Whether it’s in the fine print of the divorce agreement or Tom’s connection to Scientology keeping Tom away from Suri, is not known. But we can guess.

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.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Elon Musk made the news with his much anticipated, but poorly executed interview with Donald Trump on his website X, formerly known as Twitter. Not only was the interview riddled with technical problems, but now Elon is persona non grata in some of his favorite Hollywood establishments. According to our source, Elon’s been told he’s not welcome at a private membership club where he was allowed to frequent even though he wasn’t a member. We heard his brown-nosing of Trump was the final straw for the management of the celebrity popular establishment.

Adele made headlines when she confirmed her engagement to professional sports agent, Rich Paul, while performing at a concert in Europe. We just heard what she DIDN’T reveal though. Although she and Rich aren’t married yet, that hasn’t stopped them from starting IVF treatments with a top Beverly Hills doctor. Adele, 36 and Rich, 43 want to start a family ASAP so that’s why they started the IVF procedure. They apparently have been trying to conceive for a year but have been unsuccessful.

We forgot that Elle King was the daughter of right wing nut job and former SNL funny man Rob Schneider, but this week her explosive interview where she bashed her dad for being anti-gay and for sending her to a fat farm as a teen made headlines. We just heard that Rob is desperate to mend fences with his daughter, offering to go to family therapy, but Elle let him know through mutual contacts (they don’t speak) thanks but no thanks.

Speaking of families in crisis, Brad Pitt’s adopted son Pax made headlines when he was severely injured in a motorbike accident in Los Feliz, an area of Los Angeles. We just heard that Brad attempted to visit Pax in the hospital but was turned away. Pax, like many of the other kids he shares with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie, wants NOTHING to do with Brad.

B-list celebrity and nepo baby, Sara Foster made headlines for splitting with her partner of 19 years, pro tennis star Tommy Haas. Here’s what we know. While other outlets reported that Sara and Tommy were married our well-placed source reveals they never legally wed and instead are common law partners. We also heard that allegations of infidelity are being tossed around on BOTH sides and this split will likely get UGLY.

We started with Donald Trump and will finish with Donald Trump for this week’s Here’s What We Know recap. His online interview on X made headlines for so many reasons including his obvious lisp. According to our well-placed source, Donald recently had some work done to his teeth, including having a partial denture glued in his mouth. He has been having a hard time adjusting to the new apparatus and that’s why he’s been lisping.

HOW CELINE DION INSPIRED DONALD TRUMP

We’d have a hard time believing this if it didn’t come from such a solid source, so keep an open mind – and only time will tell if it happens. Donald Trump is having problems securing music to play at his rallies. Among other musicians, Donald was recently called out by none other than Celine Dion for playing one of her songs without her permission. Donald has now decided he doesn’t need the trouble of “obtaining permission,” so instead he’s going to record his OWN song. Yes, you read that right. Donald is recording a tune which will become his new theme song! Always looking to make a buck, Donald also plans to sell the song for downloads. The lyrics are still being worked out, but expect to hear Make America Great Again in the chorus.

MADONNA HAS A COLLECTION OF MOUTH ACCESSORIES

Madonna and her maybe boyfriend Akeem Morris (not pictured) went out with friends in Portofino and she got all dolled up – including her mouth jewelry. Madonna has been sporting what she calls “dental accessories” for decades – she started with gold teeth in the 90’s. She has amassed quite a collection of bejewelled grills and claims they suit her because she likes to hide her “ugly teeth.” We wonder- does she remove them when she eats? Where does she put them? Just curious….

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

Will history repeat itself? This self-described “genius” likes to compare himself to Michael Jackson, thinking he’s the musical superstar of his generation but it’s not just music he has in common with Michael. He’s also a big fan of the sedative propofol, and friends fear he will wind up dead just like Michael. He’s worth millions so money is no object and he has a doctor on the dole, administering the drug (which is normally used to put someone under for surgery) on a near daily basis. He claims he can’t shut off his overactive mind unless he’s put under, and has been using the drug more and more frequently to get to sleep. Sadly, everyone around him is on his payroll so they look the other way and ignore his dangerous and potentially deadly addiction.

GUESS WHO!!

HEY BRITNEY – HERE COMES SYDNEY SWEENEY!

Thanks to the premier season of The White Lotus, Sydney Sweeney has a red hot Hollywood career, and now she wants to nab one of the most sought after roles of all, playing Britney Spears in the just announced movie version of her autobiography, The Woman In Me. According to my source, Sydney has been scheming to land a face-to-face meeting with Britney (as we previously reported, Brit has final casting approval of who will portray her). Sydney is leaning on mutual connections to arrange the meeting with Britney, but so far she hasn’t been able to calendar it.

WE TOLD YA SO!

Well we told ya so. Back in April we reported that Rebecca Minkoff was joining The Real Housewives of New York as a friend of the show and that she didn’t want to discuss her involvement in Scientology. We reported that although the producers asked the other cast members not to bring up the controversial cult, behind closed doors they expected the topic to be addressed once the drinking started. Well, our source was spot on, since although this season hasn’t even premiered yet, the trailer for the upcoming series shows a housewife bringing up Scientology. See link below. My source adds that producers are THRILLED and expect it to be a storyline for much of the season if not beyond.

DONALD TRUMP WOULD RATHER BOW OUT OF ELECTION THAN LOSE

For Donald Trump, quitting is better than losing, even though he never admits to losing in the first place. Donald’s still promoting false theories that he won the 2020 election but now that Vice President Kamala Harris has shaken things up and uprooted the upcoming presidential election, my secret D.C. source says there’s a plan in place to have Donald bow out of the election. Donald’s popularity has plummeted even more so since he selected JD Vance as his running mate and Donald is facing the reality that he could very well lose BIG in the election. To avoid the humiliation, he’s working on an exit strategy and it involves his upcoming sentencing for his 34 criminal convictions. If Donald is losing in the polls when it comes time for his sentencing, he will have his attorneys make a deal with prosecutors that INCLUDES jail time! That way he can claim he was forced to drop out to deal with his legal troubles, and can claim he was on track to win the election. Remember WHO you’re dealing with here, so although this sounds crazy, it makes perfect sense to ego-driven Donald.

LISA BONET ALWAYS ATTRACTS ATTENTION

After 12 years as a couple, Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa’s marriage officially ended in July and Lisa has been experimenting with new looks. She has a headful of gray dreadlocks and braids – a color you don’t see very often. Lisa also loves piercings and she has a new nose piercing that looks like a metal rod – she also has one at the corner of her lip. Lisa turned up at the Chateau Marmont to celebrate the movie Blink Twice, that her daughter Zoe Kravitz directed.
