HOLD ON TIGHT- LADY GAGA HAS BIG PLANS FOR THE MET GALA

Being single never stopped Lady Gaga from having a good time – in fact, it brings out her eccentricity. This is the outfit she wore to the dinner BEFORE the Met Gala Monday night. Apparently she wants everybody to get worked up, imagining what she’ll wear to the fashion extravaganza where there’s an overload of stylish competition. Notice her tiny handbag – surely she has a handsome security guard carrying her essentials…

RACHEL BROSNAHAN’S HUSBAND HAS NO PROBLEM WEARING A DRESS

New York, NY - Celebrity guests on the red carpet at the 30th Annual GLAAD Media Awards New York at New York Hilton Midtown on May 04, 2019 in New York City Pictured: Rachel Brosnahan BACKGRID USA 4 MAY 2019 BYLINE MUST READ: MediaPunch / BACKGRID USA: +1 310 798 9111 / [email protected] UK: +44 208 344 2007 / [email protected] *UK Clients - Pictures Containing Children Please Pixelate Face Prior To Publication*

Rachel Brosnahan’s husband really got into the spirit of the GLAAD Media Awards. The Marvelous Mrs Maisel star looks a bit doubtful, but hubby looks delighted with himself in the red chiffon gown he wore under his evening jacket. Rachel is an advocate for the LGBTQ community and GLAAD recognizes inclusive members of the media. We didn’t realize that Rachel’s husband, actor Jason Ralph, had such a sense of humor about himself that he can enjoy wearing a dress. It’s nice to see a guy not obsessed with his masculinity.

CHER: HERE SHE GOES AGAIN

As expected, there was no shortage of sequins or hair at Cher’s performance in New Jersey on her Here We Go Again tour.The audience loved her and gave her an ear-splitting ovation, to which she wisecracked: “I always wonder if you’re clapping because I’m not dead yet, or because I can still fit into my costumes!”

WHAT’S RIGHT WITH THIS PICTURE?

It’s a group of people arriving at the Jimmy Kimmel Show – we don’t know any of them, except one. In the back you can see Jason Momoa WITHOUT his beard, in all his natural beauty for a change. Enjoy the view while you can…

ANOTHER VIDEO FOR PARIS HILTON?

We’re talking music videos here – and Paris Hilton is at it again. Apparently she’s always wanted to be a pop star – did you know she’s recorded numerous songs and filmed nearly a dozen videos in the last twelve years? Apparently European investors thought they could make her a star, but Paris has that “little girl” whispery voice…only her sex video was a genuine hit. Today she was filming a new video in Los Angeles – and she asked plenty of friends – including Kim Kardashian, to appear in it.

THE TWO THINGS WE FOUND MOST MEMORABLE FROM THE BILLBOARD AWARDS

First of all, Halsey. The show was loaded with special effects and huge, extravagant performances, but Halsey’s ultra-simple but exquisite and perfectly choreographed romantic song Without Me is the one we found amazing. Her voice was powerful throughout the acrobatic dance and the fact that her partner was a woman only made it more intense.

Second, Maluma. Leave it to Madonna to find the most delicious Hispanic male singer as a performance partner. Suddenly everyone has discovered Colombian Maluma, above, thanks to Miss M, and we can just IMAGINE Madonna conspiring to seduce this 25 year old cutie!

RAMI MALEK’S GIRLFRIEND IS A WELCOME DISTRACTION

Some people are definitely better than others when it comes to keeping a low profile. Hard to imagine that the man who won the Best Actor Oscar this year starring in Bohemian Rhapsody could spend an afternoon strolling in downtown Manhattan virtually unnoticed – but Rami Malek pulled it off! (The surreptitious photographer snapped him from a distance and kept it a secret.) It helps that all eyes are attracted to his beautiful girlfriend (and costar) Lucy Boynton. The Mr Robot star is just gearing up to star as the main villain in the new James Bond film, Bond 25 (working title.)

BANKSY STRIKES AGAIN!

We have to confess we have a soft spot for the UK artist Banksy and his whimsical social commentary. His stenciled public art appears out of nowhere to promote his views and is immediately worth a fortune. Last week the Extinction Rebellion group (Emma Thompson is a supporter) protested the government’s lack of involvement in climate change because they “seek to minimize the risk of ecological collapse.” (Needless to say, they are not fond of our fossil fuel loving president.) After the closing ceremony this artwork appeared on a nearby wall. Art experts say it’s genuine and worth over a million dollars. Local council members rushed to protect it with a clear cover because it already suffered some defacement – the red and blue writing and the yellow leaflet.

BOY BANDS LIKE NCT 127 HAVE SPAWNED “MASCULINITY TRAINING CLUBS” IN CHINA

NCT 127 is just the latest K-pop boy band gaining popularity at a rate that is alarming to many Chinese. These boys who wear makeup, earrings and fancy clothes – and are adored by girls – are perceived as sissies and a threat to the masculine culture of China. An organization called Alpha Club has been established to teach boys how to be strong, confident, and masculine. Boys as young as 7 play American football and endure military discipline to become Alpha males. No makeup allowed.
