PET SEMATARY : SOMETIMES DEAD IS BETTER

We feel a little sorry for Jason Clarke (center) because he has to make so many public appearances promoting his new movie Pet Sematary and it’s NOT easy it’s to find good things to say about it! We would describe the film in one word: GRUESOME. It starts out with a pleasant and likeable family that moves to a small town in the Northeast – just as we are starting to like them, horrible things happen. Huge trucks roar by, animals and people are slaughtered, followed by funerals and resurrections. The characters we liked are “not the same” to put MILDLY, and we would not recommend this film to anyone prone to depression or anxiety. (Stay away, Britney Spears!) Of course, we know there are guys out there who will devour every lurid moment of it…

YOU’LL NEVER GUESS WHAT PARIS JACKSON WANTS FOR HER BIRTHDAY!

She’s one of the wealthiest young women we know, but Paris Jackson has nothing in common with the acquisitive Paris Hilton. Jackson doesn’t seem to lust for jewelry or Ferraris, THIS Paris just wants to go CAMPING for her 21st birthday! She and her boyfriend Gabriel Glenn stopped at Ralph’s to pick up a few things for their camping trip!

LORI LOUGHLIN’S “RICH PEOPLES PROBLEMS” JUST GOT WORSE!

Lori Loughlin looked very cute and composed for her first appearance before the judge in a federal courthouse in Boston today. Her charges, of course, are that she bribed and cheated to get her daughter admitted to elite colleges. (Felicity Huffman wore a black suit and looked a bit less confident.) Lori cannot leave the country and she has lost her development deal at Lifetime, but the REALLY bad news is that her odds of doing time in prison for her crime are getting higher. She COULD be sentenced to 5 years for her felonies, but it’s predicted that she is most likely to serve from 6 months to 2 years. Prosecutors want to set an example and treat her like a criminal of average means.

TIFFANY HADDISH AND HER LOUSY EXCUSE FOR WEARING FUR

A few months age, Tiffany Haddish posted a photo of herself wearing a fur vest on Instagram, happily explaining “I’m going to wear fur every day until the police stop killing black >people. So sorry PETA, don’t be mad at me – be mad at the police!” Kareem Abdul Jabbar questioned the connection between wearing fur and stopping police brutality against people of color in The Hollywood Reporter. He pointed out ”Those committing brutality against other humans aren’t going to be concerned about brutality against animals. And how does needlessly harming an animal for no other reason than to gild one’s ego improve humanity? Jabbar finds Tiffany “charming and talented” but he felt her form of free speech might make the public take the issue of police brutality less seriously. And he doesn’t like the idea of wearing fur, either…

BAD BOYS BAD BOYS, WHATCHA GONNA DO?

It’s been almost 25 years since Will Smith and Martin Lawrence played hip young Miami cops in the first Bad Boys action comedy movie, and it was a box office bonanza. They managed to pull together a Bad Boys II in 2006, and it was an even BIGGER hit. A third film in the franchise percolated around Hollywood for 13 years before it came together and Bad Boys For Life is now filming in Miami with Will and Martin and two new acclaimed directors from Belgium. Martin and Will are now old-school cops in their 50’s (but just as funny) and they are called in to work on a drug case with hotshot young detectives. What could possibly go wrong?

MEGHAN MARKLE GREW UP ON THE SET OF “MARRIED WITH CHILDREN”

Here’s something we didn’t know about Meghan Markle: she grew up on the set of the 90’s TV series Married With Children! Last year Meghan told Esquire magazine that her father Thomas Markle worked on the show as a camera operator and lighting director for ten years, and every day after school she came to the set in her Catholic school uniform and did her homework while her father worked. She admitted the raunchy show was a rather “perverse” place to grow up, but her father shielded her from the naughtier moments. This makes Meghan’s estrangement from her father even sadder, since they were obviously once so close…

CARDI B JUST GAVE HUSTLERS MOVIE UNEXPECTED AUTHENTICITY

Is this a fabulous coincidence or WHAT? A three year old Instagram video just surfaced, featuring Cardi B saying that when she worked as a stripper she used to drug and rob men! Cardi confirmed it was true and explained she had “limited options” at the time. (Horrifying, because that‘s the same excuse all criminals seem to use) Back to the coincidence – Cardi B is now costarring with Jennifer Lopez and Constance Wu (Crazy Rich Asians) in Hustlers – a movie about strippers who scam rich guys out of money! Director Lorena Scafaria might be thrilled to learn that Cardi B can also be the technical advisor!

CHARLIZE THERON IS AN UNDERCOVER EXPERT

SOME celebrities know how to dress DOWN and are able to socialize freely in public places without attracting attention. It’s truly impressive when someone is as beautiful as Charlize Theron can pass as just another single mom at the Farmer’s Market. She wants her kids to have experiences like ordinary children so Charlize pulls on the baggy clothes, baseball cap and glasses (no makeup of course) and she and her kids Jackson and August (she calls them both daughters now) can enjoy the market without being bothered.

MICK JAGGER: TIME IS ON HIS SIDE

Okay, like a lot of people, when we heard that Mick Jagger is ailing and postponing his tour for at least three months for medical treatment, we were at jolted at the sudden idea of his mortality. Genetically, Mick, 75, is blessed- his lookalike father was a gym teacher and lived an active life until the age of 93. We were HOPING that Mick needed hip replacement surgery and chose not to talk about it because it’s a sign of ageing. Unfortunately, it turns out that Mick’s health “problem” was discovered by doctors when he was examined for his tour insurance. A painful hip develops gradually and it’s not a surprise. That’s not good news and we have our fingers crossed for Mick.

UPDATE: Luckily, Mick’s mystery affliction turned out to be a fixable heart problem- we bet he’ll be back in action sooner than expected!

KAT VON D AND HER FASHIONABLE GOTH BABY

No chance of THIS baby getting a suntan! Tattoo artist Kat Von D, 36, gave birth to a boy Leafar, four months ago. Kat’s husband, artist /musician Leafar Seyer, was born Rafael Reyes, and turned his name backward. (He is credited with creating “Cholo goth” music.) Kat has a very fancy black stroller for little Leafar and we wonder if he has black diapers…
