JULIA LOUIS- DREYFUS HAS POLITICAL ASPIRATIONS

She’s played a vice president, and then a president on Veep, and now Julia Louis-Dreyfus is hoping that life imitates art. Julia is a staunch Democrat, donating money and time to the cause, and now she’s hoping to get in on the action and run for Senator. The Seinfeld star’s acting career has been slowing down and she loves the idea of a new chapter of her life beginning in Washington DC, where she spent much of her childhood. Julia has to figure out where to run FROM – even though she has residences in New York and California, she’s planning to relocate to a state like Florida, which currently has two Republican senators, so she can run against them as opposed to running in a state that’s a Democratic stronghold.

OPRAH AND DR PHIL ARE NOT AS CLOSE AS YOU THINK

Here’s an interesting piece of the puzzle of a previous item. Back in February 2023 we told you that Dr. Phil was planning to run for Senate and that his political leanings were opposite of his mentor Oprah Winfrey. Well Phil’s ambitious plans have taken an interesting turn. His recent interview with Donald Trump made him somewhat of a laughingstock, when with a straight face, he described the notoriously fragile Trump as having thick skin and not caring what people thought of him. (NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH) My source says that kissing up to Trump and his devoted MAGA followers is part of Phil’s plan to get into politics. Here’s the scoop – Phil was secretly a candidate to be Trump’s VP pick, but is now hoping to land a position in his cabinet if he’s elected.

DONALD TRUMP’S MOST LIKELY RUNNING MATE

Remember where you read this. Donald Trump has narrowed down his search for his vice-presidential running mate. Although there are still a few candidates in the running, my very well-placed source says the front runner by far is North Dakota Governor and former presidential candidate Doug Burgum. As my source explains it, Doug checks all of the boxes that truly matter to Trump: he’s wealthy and has an attractive blonde wife! Although the other candidates – like Florida Senator Marco Rubio, are still in the running, Doug is also a Trump favorite because he’s never really badmouthed the former president. The reason Trump won’t pick Marco Rubio is because there are countless videotaped interviews of Marco saying terrible things about Trump. Keep in mind, Doug still needs to be thoroughly vetted, but unless something unexpected comes up you can all but guarantee he’ll be Trump’s running mate.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW:

Kate Middleton continues to be MIA, and her absence this week at the 80th celebration for D-Day in France was just the latest since her health battle began. Here’s what we know. Kate isn’t out of the woods yet, but she’s on her way to recovery. Although her stamina is improving she’s been advised by her doctors to avoid all public gatherings since her immune system is compromised while she undergoes treatment. Once her treatment concludes, she’s vowing to make up for lost time and resume her duties.

We’ve continued to update you on the trials and tribulations Leah Remini has been dealing with as she struggles to unload her Studio City, California home. We recently heard this tidbit. Leah just replaced her former realtors at Compass with Josh and Matt Altman, better known as the Altman Brothers. My source says the brothers have vowed to get to the bottom of it, and find out if Leah’s former associates in Scientology are behind the issues she’s been experiencing.

Melania Trump just dropped this bombshell on her husband Donald: If he recaptures the White House he shouldn’t expect her to join him in relocating to Washington DC. Win or lose, Melania’s plan is to divide her time between New York City and Palm Beach. She doesn’t have much interest in life in DC, especially now that her son Barron will be off at college. As my source puts it, the last thing she wants to do is be trapped in the White House with her husband and not her son.

Jennifer Lopez dominated the headlines this week after canceling her concert tour and vowing to spend more time with her family. As we previously reported J.Lo’s priority is to save her marriage to Ben Affleck. We just heard this update. Jen and Ben are planning a family vacation combining all of their kids, as soon as Ben wraps up his currently filming movie, a sequel to his successful 2016 film, The Accountant. My source says it will be a make or break vacation and will likely determine if they stay together.

And finally, last week we told you that Jean Smart’s MAX series, Hacks, was being renewed for season four. Soon after other outlets picked up our scoop and the streaming giant confirmed it. Here’s an update: Jean is hoping to reunite with her former Designing Women costar, Annie Potts next season. A role for Annie is currently being written, but Jean doesn’t want to jump the shark and make it a cliche. She has wanted to reunite with Annie for the longest time, so the writers are working overtime coming up with something worthy.

ELLEN DEGENERES IS STANDING UP FOR GAYS

Even though she’s gay herself, Ellen DeGeneres is trying to polish up her image with the gay community. Ellen’s career has been in the toilet ever since her talk show ended, and as we previously reported, she’s returning to stand-up to launch her comeback. Ellen fears her reputation is tarnished, so she’s hoping her fellow gays can help polish it up. Although most of her charity work involves protecting endangered species, Ellen is now forming a charity to benefit gay and lesbian youths. My source says Ellen is planning an upcoming comedy tour at predominantly gay clubs across the nation, and will donate all profits to the charity.

PRINCES HAVE PROBLEMS TOO!

Prince Andrew is financially struggling and he’s turning to his nephew, Prince Harry, for help! Ever since his mother Queen Elizabeth passed away, Andrew has been all but cut off from the family funds. His brother, King Charles, told him he needs to move out of the Royal Lodge if he can’t pay the $500,000 a year in upkeep charges. Andrew’s daughters are very close to their cousin Harry, so that’s why he felt comfortable enough asking him for some financial help. Since Harry is also on the outs with the Royals, he has some sympathy for Andrew, so my source says he’s likely to help him out.

BRAD PITT IS GETTING RELATIONSHIP ADVICE FROM JENNIFER ANISTON

Brad Pitt has turned to a familiar face as he deals with the never ending repercussions from his split from Angelina Jolie. As we previously reported, Brad and Angie’s oldest biological child, Shiloh, recently filed legal papers to drop Pitt from her previously hyphenated last name and just go by Jolie. The move, and Shiloh’s threat to spill more dirt on Brad, has shaken him and he’s been reaching out to his other ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston, for advice and comfort. My source reveals Brad’s current girlfriend, Ines De Ramon, is getting uncomfortable with how close Brad and Jen have seem to have become. While their rekindled relationship is still firmly in the friend zone, Ines is griping to pals that she wishes Brad would turn to HER for guidance as he navigates this situation, but instead it’s Jen who seems to have his ear.

JENNIFER LOPEZ IS NOT THE DIVA YOU THOUGHT SHE WAS

As we previously reported, Jennifer Lopez chose saving her marriage to Ben Affleck over her concert tour, but she didn’t want to leave her backup dancers high and dry. According to our source, J.Lo is paying her dancers out of her pocket as if they were employed for the duration of the tour. Since it’s likely too late for the dancers to book other tours, Jennifer didn’t want them to take a financial hit based on her choice to cancel her concerts. We don’t have an exact number, but it’s estimated to cost her well over a million dollars to cover the salaries. Despite her song, Love Don’t Cost A Thing, in this case it most certainly DOES.

RIHANNA WANTS TO BE CLOSER TO BARBADOS

Rihanna is gearing up to make a major change in her life. Although she owns multiple properties in the Los Angeles area, Rihanna is now looking to uproot her family and relocate to Greenwich, Connecticut. According to my source, Rihanna’s been spending more and more time on the East Coast, but the deciding factor is that it’s five hours closer to her homeland of Barbados. Rihanna can get home in less than five hours via private jet from NYC, but it takes twice that amount of time from LA. Rihanna wants her children to grow up part of the time in Barbados, and part of the time of the USA. During her recent stay to New York she snuck away to nearby Greenwich, touring homes in the $25 million range.

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT



My, my, my, the publicists for this movie are working overtime to leak stories about a romance between the two main leads. NOTHING could be further from the truth, since the only thing they actually have in common is they’re BOTH gay. His penchant for men is the worst kept secret in Hollywood, but his female costar has hidden her sexuality for decades. She fears it would jeopardize her leading lady status. Stories about them flirting and hooking up in their trailers are just hitting the press, but read them with a grain of salt. They’re quite fond of one another, but given their sexuality they are strictly in the friend zone.

GUESS WHO!!!
