Now this is a clever and easy-do Halloween costume. Former One Direction boy bander Liam Payne already had a black suit and tie – all he needed was a pair of glasses (in his hand) and a superman t -shirt and he became Clark Kent! (If you recall, Clark Kent used to duck into a phone boot and tear off his suit when he became Superman.) A close shave would have helped a lot, however.

Brooklyn Beckham,20, didn’t put much thought into his costume for a Halloween party in Beverly Hills, but he tried to make himself not stand out in the crowd because his ex-girlfriend Hana Cross was expected at the same party, possibly with a new boyfriend. Brooklyn and Hana were a hot commodity for nine months (and his mother Victoria really liked her) but they had frequent public arguments that often ended in her crying. Brooklyn hated the idea of running into Hana with another guy, but not enough to stay home!

Now that Kanye West has found Jesus, has he lost interest in fashion? Kanye’s Yeezy collection has disappeared off the racks, and he seems to have stopped producing the collection. Kanye and Kim showed up at the fashion /charity event called FGI Night of Stars Gala in New York Friday, and Kim was glitzily attired for the black tie event, but Kanye wore two shades of denim and looks uncomfortable. Has he forsaken Virgil Abloh for Jesus?

Young or old, most rappers seem to enjoy flaunting their wealth in every way possible – jewelry, cars, and most surprisingly, designer handbags. (Pharrell thought nothing of carrying handbags and it got him a Chanel manbag ad campaign. Lenny Kravitz has been seen wearing a shoulderbag AND high heel boots!) ) It’s the old-school gangsta rappers that still surprise us when they carry designer bags. Snoop Dogg sauntered into Drake’s birthday party with “numerous female companions“ in this green tracksuit with shoelaces to match, and a Vuitton crossbody shoulderbag.

Lindsay Lohan is looking downright friendly and flirtatious with the paparazzi in New York. Seems she’s learned to appreciate them. We remember back around 2007, when Lindsay started getting arrested for DUI, drugs, shoplifting, fighting, and multiple revoked probations. She was in and out of jail and rehab more times than we could count. And she HATED paparazzi and the press- because they documented her difficulties! Now that her MTV reality series Lindsay Lohan’s Beach Club has failed, and she’s recording music, she’s become oh-so friendly to the press.

Back in the 80’s, former model Sean Young was one of the hottest -and most notorious- stars in Hollywood. She starred in Blade Runner with Harrison Ford and had that famous love scene in a limo with Kevin Costner in No Way Out. But it was her famous feud with James Woods that led to lawsuits and crazy accusations about disfigured dolls left on a doorstep that delighted tabloid journalists and dismantled her promising career. Sean was outspoken, and perhaps before her time, but she was labeled as “unstable” and jobs became scarce. Despite her problems, and a stint on Dr Drew’s Celebrity Rehab, her friends say Sean, 59, has a “good heart,” which is illustrated by her love for animals. She lives in Arizona now with her husband, composer Robert Lujan, and has a houseful of pets.

This photo was all we needed to fall in love with the idea of a live-action Lady and the Tramp. We loved the original 1955 animated version, but these two acting dogs make the movie even better. Both pooches were rescues – Lady is a sweet Cocker Spaniel voiced by Tessa Thompson, and Tramp is a stray street-smart Schnauzer voiced by Justin Theroux. Opposites attract – when the two dogs meet they join forces for a big adventure and make new friends like Trusty the Bloodhound played by Sam Elliott, and Peg the Pekinese voiced by Janelle Monae. Disney hopes you’ll watch the film at home with your dog on their new cable channel.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus seems to have such a close and non-problematic family considering her success. Julia met her husband, actor/writer Brad Hall, when they were both studying at Northwestern, and they were both hired at Saturday Night Live at the same time. They married in 1987 and had two sons – meanwhile Julia started piling up Emmys for Seinfeld and Veep. Both Charlie, 22, on the left, and Henry, 27, right, graduated from college. Her sweet sons surprised Julia with a video they made to Michael Jackson’s Beat It! when she finished her last day of chemo for breast cancer. Henry is pursuing a career in music, and since he had a cameo on VEEP, Charlie is interested in acting.

Gold is not an easy color to wear – you might wind up looking like an Oscar, but English actress Naomie Harris, 43, has just the right touch in her tailored suit. Naomie looks nothing like her Moonlight character – she played a drug addled mother, but the role earned her an Oscar nomination. You might also remember her as Eve Moneypenny in two 007 films. This beautiful actress goes out of her way to keep her life private – she’s had a few boyfriends, but never talks about them. Recently she posted a photo of a man named Azim Majid, whom she called her “husband”- but it might be just a joke. Or maybe not.

It’s been a tough year for Mira Sorvino, but we’re pleased to see the Oscar winner working again and looking happy with her husband Chris Backus. Her acting career was irrevocably damaged by Harvey Weinstein when he blackballed her in Hollywood for not being “cooperative” sexually. In 2004 she married 14 years younger actor/screenwriter Chris, and they now have two boys and two girls. Mira and Chris costarred in the movie Drowning and they appeared together at the premier at the Rome Film Festival.
