JANELLE MONAE: TOO MANY FISH IN THE SEA?

We’ve had weeks and weeks of award show red carpets and fashion shows but our FAVORITE fashionista, Janelle Monae, has been conspicuously absent from all events! Blame it on fish! Janelle has been feeling under the weather due to mercury poisoning. She figured becoming a pescetarian would be healthy, but apparently she ate too many fish for her own good. Luckily she’s recovered sufficiently to perform on the Oscars Sunday. Next step: she’s planning to become a mother!

JENNIFER LOPEZ WORKS OUT IN HER FUNNY GIRL SWEATSHIRT

Coach must be really happy with their brand ambassador Jennifer Lopez, because she not only wears their clothes in ads, but also in real life to the gym. J.Lo wore her $225 Babs sweatshirt – it’s an iconic airbrush portrait of Streisand in Funny Girl that artist Richard Bernstein created for the cover of Interview Magazine in 1969. When Streisand saw a photo of Jennifer wearing the shirt, she sent her thumbs up approval via Instagram. Jennifer is also carrying a bejeweled Superbowl water bottle today.

RENEE ZELLWEGER HAS A LOCK ON THAT OSCAR

Renee Zellweger was in Paris this week at the premier of her film Judy, but of course she’ll be back in time for Oscar parties. Everyone seems to agree that she will take home the Best Actress Oscar, so it’s rather discouraging for the other nominees. We were not crazy about the Judy movie, and although Renee was excellent, we thought Charlize Theron was equally amazing in Bombshell. LOVE this photo of Rene cuddling somebody’s “wolf-dog” puppy after the Judy premier.

KANYE WEST OR VIRGIL ABLOH: WHICH ONE IS THE GENIUS?

Kanye West and Virgil “Off-White” Abloh are both from Chicago and Kanye made his fortune in the rap world while Virgil scored in fashion and design. Kanye recognized his friend’s talent and hired him as “creative director” for his own Weezy shoe and fashion business. Abloh has an IIT Master’s Degree in Architecture and designs for Louis Vuitton, Off-White, Ikea, and Nike. Coincidentally or NOT, Kanye’s popular designs are extremely similar to Virgil’s. Yet, Kanye is the one who calls himself a “creative genius” and “the greatest artist of all time!” We have the feeling that without Virgil Abloh, Kanye would still be just a rapper…

DIANE KEATON IS AN OPEN BOOK

Diane Keaton is one of the most consistently recognizable celebrities because she has a very distinct style and never strays from it. (That hat!) So when she was wandering around downtown in New York, observing and snapping pictures of artistic graffiti and wall murals (another book in the works?) her fans instantly noticed her. And Diane couldn’t have been nicer – she posed for selfies with one and all…

FAYE DUNAWAY CHARMED BY THE HOT FELON JEREMY MEEKS

When Faye Dunaway arrived at her Cologne, Germany hotel this week (without makeup) she was surprised by fans pleading for selfies and autographs. Faye was in town for the Lambertz chocolate party. (She glammed herself up for the event.) Every year the chocolate company has a huge celebrity party and invites Hollywood stars along with European actors and models. This year, felon-turned- model Jeremy Meeks was the hit of the party – he kissed Faye’s hand and turned on the charm for her. And she seemed to like it!

BILLY PORTER: WHAT’S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?

Broadway star (Kinky Boots) and fashion icon Billy Porter is always immaculately groomed and dressed to kill – on or off the red carpet. He’s an expert at grand entrances, but nobody’s perfect ALL the time. Billy was snappily attired and minding his own business today, looking successful in New York, but he made a FATAL ERROR that detracted enormously from his good looks- he was PICKING HIS TEETH with a dental floss pick as he walked down the street! Yikes!

ZENDAYA GOT A BIGGER BOYFRIEND

Euphoria star Zendaya is only 23 and already she’s an expert at keeping her lovelife a secret. She costarred with English actor Tom Holland in Spider-Man: Far From Home, and managed to keep their romance a secret almost until they split. She describes her Euphoria costar, Australian actor Jacob Elordi, 22, as her “best friend,” but he’s way more than that. They avoid events together, but have been seen in New York numerous times looking very chummy. (Note the matching Matcha drinks) At 5’8” Tom Holland was 2 inches shorter than Zendaya, but Jacob is 6’4” so she can stand up straight! He also keeps her laughing and that goes a long way…

BEST DRESSED CHARLIZE THERON WON UK AWARD FOR BEST PROSTHETICS

We’re just about overdosing on award show gowns, having seen SO MANY in the past few weeks, but we think Charlize Theron looks sensational in this beautiful shade of purple. She was nominated for Lead Actress for Bombshell at the EE British Academy Film Awards but Rene Zellweger took the award home. However, Bombshell DID win the award for Best Hair & Makeup, and we think that’s because of Charlize’s amazing makeup and facial prosthetics that made her so closely resemble her character Megyn Kelly.

MICKEY ROURKE: THAT’S WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR

Mickey Rourke and hairdresser Giuseppe Franco have been friends for decades – in fact Mickey helped Franco get celebrity clients when he was starting out in Beverly Hills. For the past few years, however, Mickey has been experimenting with wigs in various colors with limited success. For some reason Giuseppe doesn’t step in and improve Mickey’s hairpieces, but maybe that’s why they’re still friends…Mickey and Giuseppe hang out at Mulberry Street Pizzeria in Beverly Hills – Mickey likes to read the New York Post there.
