JOHNNY DEPP: AWARDS YES – JOBS NO!

Despite being accurately described as a “wife beater,” Johnny Depp,58, got an honorary Outstanding Contribution award at the San Sebastian Film Festival this week. Before the ceremony Johnny, who’s been griping that Hollywood blackballed him, ominously declared “Nobody is safe from cancel culture!” Naturally, women’s domestic abuse charities complained loudly that the film honor is disrespectful of abuse survivors. Film Festival members insisted that Johnny was NOT ARRESTED OR CONVICTED of violence against women and pointed out that the award reflects Depp’s cinematic achievements- not his personal life. Ironically, later this month Johnny is scheduled to receive another honorary award in the Czech Republic.

DUA LIPA AND THE HADID FAMILY

Singer Dua Lipa, 25, has pretty much become a member of the Hadid family since she started dating Anwar Hadid, 22, in 2019. So it’s not unusual for her and Anwar to go our to dinner with his mother Yolanda in New York. Dua’s career is going great guns- she’s been busy recording and performing all over the place. Anwar seems to support himself with modeling but he’s always available to travel with Dua and keep an eye on her. He seems to be crazy about her and very possessive- for now, she seems to be enjoying it…

JADEN SMITH PREFERS TO EDUCATE HIMSELF

Jaden Smith, 23, is showing off a suit from his own fashion collection, MSFTSrep, at the British Vogue party during London Fashion Week. We assume the odd name means “misfits republic” and he’s partners in the brand with sister Willow and a few friends. When he’s not designing, Jaden is skateboarding or making music. In 2016 he was the first male model to wear a skirt in the Louis Vuitton womenswear campaign – hence the skirt-like attachment to his pants above. Jaden is clearly smart and creative – it’s too bad he and his sister Willow don’t believe in higher education – no college for them.

BEST DRESSED EMMA CORRIN – PRINCESS DIANA WOULD HAVE AGREED

Our absolute FAVORITE outfit at The Emmys. We had never heard of 25 year old actress Emma Corrin before last night – turns out, she played Princess Diana in season 4 of The Crown. THIS is a modern woman not afraid to look different. First of all, please note her simple non-aggressive makeup. She looks natural and pretty – the polar opposite of a Kardashian. The simplicity of her Miu Miu dress is startling – no plunging neckline, no glitter, no provocative slits up to the hip. Just a beautiful futuristic silhouette, with a matching headpiece and gloves. We could live without the black nails, but they do add whimsy…

HAS DJ PAULY D FOUND “THE ONE?”

Jersey Shore’s DJ Pauly D, 41, has a serious girlfriend, Nikki Hall – and she seems to be the perfect partner for him.They met on a reality show, A Double Shot At Love, and have been together for two years. Nikki, 29, makes money as a model and Tik Tok influencer and she loves making personal appearances with Pauly at events like this one at the Sugar Factory restaurant in Las Vegas. Certainly they have more fun together that Jersey Shore’s volatile Ronnie Ortiz-Magro who’s always getting arrested for domestic violence or stalking. Besides sweets, Sugar Factory offers those giant cocktails (above) for $36!

NICKI MINAJ ISN’T FUNNY ANY MORE

Fendi must be recoiling at the thought that they ever collaborated with Nicki Minaj. Everybody had a laugh when Nicki Minaj explained her lack of vaccination by claiming her cousin’s friend in Trinidad was rendered infertile after the shots. The silly story blew up on the internet and reporters flew to Trinidad to “investigate.” Perhaps embarrassed by her ignorance, Nicki retaliated at the reporters who attempted to interview her relatives by posting their personal information online and encouraging her fans to threaten them. She herself tried to intimidate journalists with “your days are numbered” and called them names like “dirty hoe,” revealing herself to be as crass as some male rappers. Sorry Nicki, we treasure freedom of the press way more than we treasure you…

JOHNNY MATHIS: RETIRE? WHO, ME?

Hard to believe, but Johnny Mathis has been touring and recording for 65 years. In fact, the Chances Are singer is the longest running recording artist in the history of Columbia records! Johnny turns 86 this month and he just started his 65 Years of Romance tour that was postponed by Covid. He stays in shape by working out with a trainer five days a week. Johnny’s always been rather quiet and private, so it’s nice to see him having a good time at Craig’s restaurant with friends.

CHRISTINA AGUILERA: DID SHE OR DIDN’T SHE?

Not sure if Christina Aguilera was inspired by Brittany Spears or not, but she’s definitely been posting sexier photos of herself lately. This photo is far from her best, but it did get a lot of attention from observers commenting on obvious photoshopping, especially in the thighs area. We know Christina loves to eat, so it’s not out of the question…

JOHNNY ROTTEN’S NO-FRILLS BOOK TOUR

John Lydon AKA Johnny Rotten wants you to know he’s BROKE. The Sex Pistols lead singer is currently touring the UK (he has dozens and dozens of personal appearance dates) and he’s promoting his new book I Could Be Wrong, I could Be Right.” (currently selling on eBay for $150) To save money he’s traveling from date to date and sleeping in a rented camper van. (above) Lydon lost an expensive court case where he refused to allow Sex Pistol songs in Danny Boyle’s new Pistols biographical series Pistol. The other band members cooperated, but John wanted nothing to do with the Disney FX series- the judge defended “majority rules” – and it was an expensive loss for Lydon. Hence the low budget tour…

J BALVIN: WORST DRESSED MAN

It’s not easy to make J Balvin look bad, but Jeremy Scott managed to do it at the Met Gala. The Moschino designer is wearing a perfectly delightful outfit of his OWN- so why does sexy singer J Balvin look like an overstuffed clown? Don’t know if Balvin had anything to do with the design of this overbejewelled costume, but it’s the first time we’ve seen the handsome Latinx singer look just plain silly …
