HAS DOLLY PARTON OUTLIVED PLAYBOY MAGAZINE?

In a recent radio interview, Dolly Parton remarked that she was negotiating with Playboy magazine to appear on the cover with an inside interview ”to coincide with her 75th birthday in January.” She added that “it would be “in good taste.” Back in the day (1978), Dolly appeared on Playboy’s cover wearing a bunny suit with an interview inside. So it would be a fitting reunion. But it appears Dolly’s career has outlasted Playboy. The magazine stopped printing during the pandemic with the March issue, and IF it appears again, it will be strictly online. That’s a big IF. But you can still purchase a Playboy mask on their website…

MACHINE GUN KELLY HAS MEGAN FOX TO THANK FOR NEWFOUND FAME

He is clearly having fun with his sudden notoriety, and Machine Gun Kelly is making the most of it. He ENJOYS having paparazzi follow him, including last night at Saddle Ranch on Sunset. Kelly was showing off for photographers, bopping to loud music in the car, and hanging out the window when he got carried away and broke his friend’s windshield!

KATIE HOLMES AND EMILIO VITOLO COULDN’T HIDE ON THE SUBWAY

Wonder what the other passengers think when two masked people get on the subway and paparazzi start shooting? Surely that women sitting near Katie Holmes and her new boyfriend Emilio Vitolo must wonder what IS going on. A long as Katie has her mask on, she feels free to go anywhere unrecognized, but those photographers who wait outside her building and follow her from home are a dead giveaway!

NEVER A DULL MOMENT WITH SHIA LA BEOUF

We got interested in Shia LaBeouf years ago when we learned that Megan Fox had a giant crush on her Transformers costar. What was the appeal? Shia turned out to be QUITE a character. Besides being a fascinating actor, his off-camera antics have always been noteworthy. (During a Broadway performance of Cabaret, Shia impulsively jumped onstage right into a bar scene and patted Alan Cumming on the butt) He’s been arrested a few times for disorderly conduct and very honestly discussed his problems with alcohol on talk shows. His intense movie Honey Boy told the story of his youth as a child actor with an abusive father. (He got his father to sign off on the film by telling him his favorite actor Mel Gibson would be playing him.) Shia ended up playing his own awful father with gusto. Above, Shia, 33, is staying in shape for his next project…whatever that might be.

BEN AFFLECK’S LIFE IS HEADED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

Ben Affleck, 48, must have been pleasantly surprised when he learned that he’s now living with a Vogue cover girl! Ben met Ana de Armas, 32, last November when they filmed Dark Water together, and they’ve been inseparable ever since. You probably remember Ana from her starring role in Knives Out. The Cuban-Spanish actress recently gave up her Venice apartment to move into Ben’s house. She’s made friends with Ben’s kids (they all love dogs) and Ben’s ex Jennifer Garner seems genuinely happy for Ben.

BREAKING UP WASN’T THAT HARD TO DO FOR LIEV SCHREIBER

Turns out Liev Schreiber is nothing like his questionable character Ray Donovan. He and Naomi Watts have had one of the most civilized break-ups in Hollywood history. The fact that they never actually married certainly made it easier- but after 11 years of togetherness and two kids, Liev and Naomi simply fell out of love. But what’s important is, they never stopped LIKING each other. Liev moved out into a New York apartment close to Naomi and the kids, and they share custody. Liev is often seen out with Kai, 11, and Sasha, 13, – sometimes he brings along his new girlfriend Taylor Neisen. Taylor and Naomi are so friendly that they all lived together for awhile during social isolation. Recently Liev wished Naomi happy birthday by posting a cute photo of her and captioning it “You are the best ex ever!”

DAMIAN HURLEY IS THE ULTIMATE “PRETTY BOY”

It looks like Damian Hurley, 18, will have to fight for an inheritance from his wealthy father Steve Bing. Bing committed suicide in June and his will, written in 2001, specifically left OUT any children whether born yet or not. At that time, actress Elizabeth Hurley was pregnant with Damian, but Bing doubted that the child was his. Damien may eventually get some kind of inheritance, but in the meantime his modeling career is thriving. His astonishing resemblance to his beautiful mother (he even has the same haircut) has put this pretty boy in demand and he’s making the most of it.

LIZZO: TRUTH DOESN’T HAVE TO HURT!

Moschino designer Jeremy Scott posted this amazing photo on Instagram of Lizzo wearing his dress in Vogue, and we were duly impressed. Lizzo has never looked more beautiful. She loves fashion (the crazier the better) and will literally try anything, but this is the first time we’ve seen her just look pretty. Lizzo says that she prefers the term “body normative” to “body positive.” She points out that she aims to normalize her body, and that “being fat is normal!” Her size doesn’t stop Lizzo from wearing outlandish stage wear and she encourages other big girls to have fun and do the same.

JESSICA ALVES LOOKS LIKE A GERMAN OKTOBERFEST BARMAID

Okay, some of you are a bit annoyed that we keep featuring photos of Jessica (formerly Rodrigo) Alves, but Jessica’s photos are the most astonishing available at our small budget. Above, Jessica is walking around in London and we can only IMAGINE the reaction of people on the street. Apparently Jessica has body dysmorphia and while attempting to perfect her looks, does NOT realize how unusual her appearance IS. Certainly Jessica enjoys attention, but she obviously doesn’t realize her desire to be beautiful has gotten WAY out of hand…

SUPERMARKETS KEPT PAPARAZZI ALIVE DURING THE PANDEMIC

Before Covid, Hollywood paparazzi had a lot of choices of places to stalk celebrities during the day. Popular shopping areas like Melrose Avenue, Rodeo Drive, or The Grove, were ideal hunting grounds for celebrity hungry paparazzi. Outdoor cafes were easy pickings for a furtive photo. AFTER Covid struck, the only place that everyone went was to the supermarket. Paparazzi staked out the parking lots of all the upscale markets like Bristol Farms, Erewhon, or Gelson’s, and watched for arriving celebrities’ cars. Covid also changed celebrity shopping habits – now that they have to wear masks, celebrities think nothing of going to the market – or anywhere else they might have avoided before, for fear of being recognized. Some LOVE going out incognito, and they don’t have to worry about how they look. It’s more fun shopping in Hollywood now – you never know who that masked person is fondling avocados right next to you! Gwen Stefani enjoyed a supermarket visit this weekend with two of her sons…
