LADY GAGA DRESSED AS A GARMENT BAG?

Lady Gaga is knocking herself out promoting her new House of Gucci movie EVERYWHERE, and that includes publicizing the fashion label. But in what world would this outfit she’s wearing be considered desirable? This all-over GG print with the leather trim makes her look like a piece of carry-on luggage – in particular, a garment bag! The cape and dress look even stranger with her platform shoes. NOT a pretty picture – but we are still eager to see the movie!

HAPPY TRAILS FOR KEVIN COSTNER

Kevin Costner is successfully living out his cowboy fantasies in BOTH of his careers! This weekend he performed with his country rock band Modern West (how did we not know about this?) at the packed Sunset Station Amphitheater in Henderson, Nevada, and the show was a huge success. Unlike Travis Scott, they made a lot of money and there were no fatalities. The next evening, his Yellowstone series season 4 premiered to astonishing ratings, Yellowstone attracted 8 million viewers – topping the Game of Thrones season 4 premier!

JARED LETO: THE RIGHT COMBO OF CONFIDENCE AND ECCENTRICITY

Let’s talk about Jared Leto’s fashion. He definitely looks rockstar pretty here at the London premier of House of Gucci in this teal velvet suit. Note the feminine jewelry and sheer scarf instead of a shirt – and don’t forget the glitter handbag. We predict that Jared will be the next male celebrity to wear a skirt or a dress. He already wears skirts over pants and wore a floor length wraparound “gown” to the Met Gala. He’s definitely experimenting with extending boundaries and Harry Styles’ penchant for women’s clothing might push him over the edge. It’s very odd, but it seems more rappers are wearing skirts than actors. It takes a perfect blend of confidence and eccentricity for a straight guy to be happy in a skirt. Jared has it.

DOES OFFSET HAVE A CONSCIENCE?

We’ve always thought Offset had a dead-serious scary face and indeed, he does get into a lot of fights. In 2020 he rented a luxurious Bentley for $600 a day from Platinum Transportation Group. He stopped paying a month later and explained that he didn’t know WHERE the car was! PTG filed a police report for the missing Bentley, which was not found. They estimated they lost $100,000 on potential income for the absent vehicle. Offset ignored the situation and he has now been slapped with a $950,027.35 lawsuit. Coincidentally, he just bought his very excited wife Cardi B a house in the Dominican Republic for her birthday- we wonder if she has SEEN it yet….hmmm

SEBASTIAN BACH: NOT THE SAME PERSON HE WAS IN 1996

Sebastian Bach may no longer be the blonde pretty boy lead singer of Skid Row, (he left the band in 1996) but he still draws a heavy metal crowd on his own (and he still has a full head of hair!) He’s currently on his Slave to the Grind anniversary tour and the question of reuniting with Skid Row continues to come up. Bach insists that the reunion SHOULD happen -for the fans. “We are still alive and in our 50’s!” His former Skid Row band-mates say he’s difficult to work with, but Bach retorts ”We haven’t been in the same room since 1996- they don’t even know me now!” Sebastian shrugs “There’s no reason NOT to reunite” – he’s open to the idea.

BOY GEORGE: THE ROLE OF A LIFETIME?

Unlike SOME people, Boy George is not complaining about a new biopic called Karma Chameleon being made about his life. He says “I want it to be honest and truthful – and hilarious!” The movie will document George O’Dowd’s rise from small town boy to flamboyant rockstar, and it WILL include his 4 month prison term in 2009 for falsely imprisoning a male escort. First the film was delayed by Covid, and now it’s being held up because they haven’t cast someone to play George. George jokes that Harry Styles was “too scared” to take the role, but Yungblud and Adam Lambert have not been ruled out. George is now 60 years old – can you believe it?

MEG RYAN: WHO NEEDS ACTING WHEN YOU CAN FLIP?

MOVE OVER Tarek El Moussa (from HGTV) because Meg Ryan is offering some major competition when it comes to house flipping! She’s been flipping for quite awhile, but Meg’s recent flip is worth noting. During the pandemic in Feb 2020, the When Harry Met Sally star bought a home in Montecito for $5.05 million. She moved there and started work on the house right away – that included adding walls of glass. The 4200 sq ft house on 1.5 acres has 3 bedrooms and 3 baths. 18 months later she sold the house for $13.25 million! (Remember, Tarek is thrilled when a flip earns him $100,000 on Flip or ) The pandemic did not slow Meg down! She already invested the money into another Montecito home for $9.5 million and she’s hard at work on it. Who needs acting?

AL PACINO: BURGLAR OR ACTOR?

We’ve always had a weakness for celebrity mugshots. This is one we haven’t seen before, for some reason. Al Pacino was only 20 when he and two other young actors were stopped by police in Rhode Island in 1961. The guys were dressed like burglars with masks and gloves, and a .38 caliber pistol was found in the car. They were arrested for possession of a concealed weapon and spent three days in jail because they couldn’t come up with the $2000 bail. Al explained that they were actors on their way to a job and the gun was a prop. Charges were dropped, but this cute photo lives on…
Would you have dated him?

WHEN THE OSCARS PREDICTED “THE STARS OF TOMORROW” – YIKES!

In 1989 the Academy made the cruel mistake of nominating the “Stars of Tomorrow” on the Oscars and having the young performers sing and dance on the show (including Corey Feldman.) Watch this clip and you will be shocked by how LITTLE success many of these familiar young actors had – none of them came close to getting an Oscar…(Watching Bob Hope and Lucille Ball in their 80’s introduce the segment is fun too!)

PUFF DADDY: DO REAL MEN DO PILATES?

Puffy (AKA Sean Love Combs) isn’t so sure…He walked out of a pilates studio and was NOT thrilled to bump into paparazzi! He immediately covered his head with his jacket and felt his way back to his car. Why was Diddy so camera-shy all of a sudden? Was he embarrassed because he was walking out of a pilates class consisting of mostly women? He shouldn’t be self-conscious – pilates is nothing like yoga- and it’s more challenging than it looks. Real men DO pilates – including Lebron James and David Beckham – and they ADMIT it.
