BRAD PITT ISN’T TAKING ANY CHANCES

Right now, the world simply cannot get enough of Brad Pitt. He was the talk of the Golden Globes – and not just because Jennifer Aniston was there also. During his acceptance speech Brad thanked co-workers but deliberately NOT his kids. He knows that any reference to them will increase press curiosity and make them vulnerable. (Angelina, on the other hand, definitely does NOT mind being seen with the kids.) Brad reportedly did not drink at Globes parties – he’s in an all-male AA group and finds it inspiring. All-male is an excellent idea – that’s not a smart place to find romance.

NOT TO BE OVERLOOKED: SANDRA BULLOCK

For some reason, Sandra Bullock did not walk the red carpet at the Golden Globes so she didn’t get as much fashion attention as some others. But she should have flaunted this very beautiful and tasteful dress. The marigold color is lush and – thank heavens – it’s not that same old low cut neckline with a slit and a leg sticking out, that we see over and over again! Her chain jewelry is also a nice subtle touch – it’s very cool but not flashy or gaudy.

TAN FRANCE: FIRST OUT GAY MUSLIM ON TV?

To think we almost FORGOT how amazing Tan France’s hair is! He has the pompadour of a lifetime- what a head of hair! The Queer Eye star, 36, lives up to his billing as a fashion expert. Tan was born Tanveer Safdar in the UK to Pakistani parents and he grew up gay in a Muslim family. (You can read more about THAT in his book Naturally Tan.) He studied design in college and worked in the fashion industry (including Chanel) until he married an illustrator named Rob France (hence the last name.) They live together in Salt Lake City. Today Tan was in New York visiting the Stephen Colbert show.

KATE BECKINSALE MADE UP FOR A LOT OF BAD GOLDEN GLOBES FASHION

We all pretty much agree on who was Worst Dressed at the Golden Globes. Why no one told Globe winner Patricia Arquette NOT to leave the house in that gross and desperate looking low cut dress is a mystery. If she HAS a stylist (and we doubt it) -that stylist should be fired immediately. Too bad her memorable stage moment will forever be a visual turn-off. On the OTHER hand, we’re not sure if Kate Beckinsale was at the award show or just the Amazon after-party, but we absolutely LOVE her party outfit. It’s original and fun – and SO photogenic!

BRAD LEARNED A FEW THINGS FROM JENNIFER

Golden Globe winner Brad Pitt was radiant on the red carpet – he barely missed bumping into his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston, who was equally radiant. (They absolutely cannot be photographed anywhere NEAR each other because they will be accused by tabloids of reconciliation – and we can’t blame them.) Brad and Jen DID share a red carpet beauty tip- they both got fake tans before the event. And both looked amazing. Whether tanning bed or spray tan, Jennifer has been doing this for years, and Brad started to do the same when they were married. When he was with Angelina, Brad chose to appear as pale as she was.

JODIE COMER HASN’T “KILLED EVE” YET

Villanelle is looking super-hot! Actually it’s UK actress Jodie Comer,26, whom you must remember as the deranged hit-woman in Killing Eve. The excellent BBC series has been renewed for a fourth season and Jodie has another Golden Globes Best Actress nomination. The series launched Jodie’s Hollywood career and she is now starring with Ryan Reynolds in his upcoming video game movie called Free Guy. AND Jodie is now the face of the Loewe 2020 fashion campaign.

CHARLIE HUNNAM: HIDING BEHIND HIS BEARD

Charlie Hunnam arrived at a social event at Chateau Marmont looking like THIS – which is to say, displaying few of his charms. Perhaps, the Sons of Anarchy star grew facial hair for the series because he had such a cute face that he needed to look rougher. But Anarchy is long past, and we want our handsome Charlie back! He’s obviously grown dependent on that face foliage and he even covered up his great head of hair with a hat – to go to this party. He doesn’t want to be noticed, but Charlie is 39 now and it’s time to enjoy his good looks, which will not last forever.

BRAD PITT: CAUGHT IN THE ACT

Brad Pitt has a rep for being one of the nicer guys in Hollywood, but even HE has his flaws – as his two ex-wives are bound to remember. Smoking too much pot slowed him down considerably and indulging in too much alcohol was another problem. He’s given up a lot, but Brad still smokes cigarettes – more than ever. His kids worry because they know how unhealthy it is. Brad tried vaping without success and now he tries to keep his smoking undercover. Above, Brad entered the back door at The Arclight Hollywood where he did a Q & A.

NICOLAS CAGE HAD A MODEST HOLIDAY

If you were wondering where Nicolas Cage spent New Year’s Eve, wonder no more. He surprised locals at a tiny pub in the rather obscure Somerset village of Baltonsborough in the UK. Nic has owned a getaway cottage in the vicinity since 2006, and sometimes slides into town to spend the holidays there. He bought a round of drinks for his delighted neighbors in the pub and posed for selfies.

WILMER VALDERRAMA FINALLY MADE A DECISION

NCIS looker Wilmer Valderrama, 39, has finally made up his mind about who to marry and he got engaged to model/scuba diver Amanda Pacheco, 28. It’s interesting to note that although Wilmer has dated lots of pretty actresses (including Demi Lovato) and he’s been referred to as a “Hollywood lothario,” he has never been married OR engaged as far as we know. Amanda is as athletic as she is beautiful, so she’s quite a catch too. They’ve been together around 8 months and were seen frolicking in Tokyo and Paris this summer, so something was bound to happen.
