Orlando Bloom appears to be happy as a clam in Beverly Hills as he purchases his new battery-powered Lucid car. The vehicle claims to go 400 to 500 miles on a single charge and it’s a serious rival to Tesla. Lucids rev up to 168 MPH and range in price from $77,000 to $170,000 – we’re assuming Orlando got a pricey one. Looks like he can hardly WAIT to get behind the wheel and take Katy for a ride…

Milan Fashion Week just started again and we couldn’t help noticing this look on Italian model Vittoria Ceretti (she looks like the Italian version of Kendall Jenner) What’s interesting is that top she’s wearing with the baggy suit. Reminds us of a super-skimpy swimsuit. It’s a very original – and unexpected- way of showing flesh…

Looks like Michael Madsen is about to hit rock bottom. At 9 PM Wednesday, two policemen went to his Malibu house and arrested him for “trespassing” and brought him out in handcuffs, looking a mess. He was taken to the hospital for two hours and then the police station. Where he had been trespassing and who reported him is not known, BUT perhaps it has something to do with his rocky marriage. He’s been arrested for DUI several times and the Reservoir Dogs actor has lost work because of it. (We loved him in Thelma & Louise) In 2020 he got a star on the Walk of Fame and while making a rambling speech he was surprised to see his wife DeAnna at the ceremony. He became emotional and apologized to her, saying “My dear lovely DeAnna- I miss you so much honey and I’m sorry for all the things that happened in the last few days.” Sounds like they are not living together – maybe SHE called the cops on him. Keep in mind their son Hudson, 26, committed suicide in Hawaii a month ago. Madsen seems badly in need of help – but will he cooperate?

Alec Baldwin looked slightly frazzled, but determined, as he took his cute kids Carmen and Leonardo to CAMP – described as a “Family Experience Store” in New York. The store offers “activities and experiences” for kids and adults of all ages. We don’t have the store in Los Angeles, but we shopped the online store and made some interesting finds. You can buy Lizzo and Keanu Reeves coloring books at this store- as well as a stainless steel multi-tool the size of a credit card that serves as a flashlight, screwdriver, wrench, saw, bottle opener, knife and file – and fits in your wallet! (we bought this) Sounds like a fascinating place for everybody…

And so it begins…we were not at ALL surprised to learn that women in their 70’s and 80’s are now coming forward to accuse the late Jerry Lewis of sexual and other atrocities. It’s about time. He’s actually being compared to Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby. As a kid, we LOVED Jerry Lewis’s movies, but as a gossip columnist we had heard plenty of not-so-nice stories about this talented but egotistical and entitled monster who was the King of Paramount Pictures in the 60’s and could do no wrong. (Did you know he left NONE of his 50 million dollar fortune to his longtime ex-wife Patti and 6 sons?) The producers of Allen v Farrow interviewed several actresses with awful stories about Lewis and they shared the info with Vanity Fair. Hopefully now that the doors have opened – MORE women will have the courage to tell their stories about the REAL Jerry Lewis.

It takes all kinds. Joan Collins (age 88 – can you believe it?) had an elegant black tie party at Claridge’s Hotel in London to celebrate her 20th wedding anniversary with Percy Gibson. Among the guests were Elizabeth Hurley and her customary date, her 19 year old son Damian Hurley. Damian wore his long hair back in a ponytail with his tuxedo, and his mother wore a sexy gown as usual. He has quite a modeling career going these days – too bad he has no time for college. Simon Cowell and his fiancee Lauren Silverman were also at the event – all the other men wore tuxes, but Simon is accustomed to showing off his irresistible chest – and ignored the formal invitation.

Because she was nominated for her song Be Alive from King Richard, Beyonce is blessing the Oscars with a much-needed live performance on the show. The website Gawker has calculated the it is highly probable that Beyonce is NOT vaccinated. The Oscars require that all nominees and guests show proof of vaccination and negative tests before they can attend the show. Strangely, PERFORMERS and presenters will only need to be tested in accordance with LA County rules. Did the Academy have different rules for performers because they REALLY want Beyonce on the show? Also suspicious- recently Beyonce did NOT attend the ceremony when her husband Jay-Z was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame– where proof of vaccination was required.

Not only is she a focused mom, but Sandra Bullock is a real estate mogul. Not a PERFECT mogul, but close. We couldn’t imagine a celebrity LOSING money on a real estate deal in these strange times, but Sandra managed to do it. She sold her two condos in Beverly Hills’ Sierra Towers and took a LOSS of 1.5 million dollars. Too bad, but that still leaves her with a huge portfolio of homes and properties worth almost 100 million dollars. After she divorced Jesse James in 2010, Sandra decided to adopt. (It’s lucky she didn’t have kids with HIM) Sandra adopted Louis in 2010 – he’s 12 now, and Laila in 2015 – she’s 10 now. Sandra’s boyfriend Bryan Randall has turned out to be an enthusiastic stepdad for the kids, so they’ve got the life most children can only dream about…

Euphoria star Jacob Elordi is attempting to slip into The Crosby Hotel in New York as unobtrusively as possible with a black hooded coat, mask, and a leather bag. But when you are 6’5,” it’s really hard NOT to be noticed. Why is the Australian actor trying to be undercover? Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that two of his famous ex-girlfriends happen to be both staying at The Crosby with their new boyfriends, and a lobby run-in might be… awkward. Zendaya is there with her new Batman boyfriend Tom Holland, and Kaia Gerber is also at the hotel with her Elvis boyfriend Austin Butler. We’re guessing their paths will not cross.

Elliot Page was the first Oscar nominated actress (Ellen Page in Juno) to come out as transgender in Hollywood history. He made the announcement over two years ago and his career is understandably up in the air right now. Determined to make the best of it, Elliot is writing a memoir called Pageboy and it already sold to a publisher for 3 million dollars. It looks like it will be a guessing game of homophobic Hollywood bullies and we hope there are lots of clues. Not only did a male director try to seduce Ellen at the age of 16, but a HUGE movie star got drunk at a party and went on a homophobic rampage, embarrassing Page when she first came out as gay. Put Pageboy on your Christmas list for 2023.
