MEL GIBSON AND HIS 27 YEAR OLD BABY MAMA

For a guy who’s not exactly popular OR delicious to look at, Mel Gibson, 62, is lucky to always have a pretty – and YOUNG – woman by his side. He’s spent the last four years with champion equestrian vaulter (described as “gymnastics on horseback”) Rosalind Ross, and they have a two year old son Lars, together (Catholic Mel’s ninth child and her first.) When questioned about their 35 year age difference, Mel shrugged “She is an adult and we dig each other.”

LIEV SCHREIBER: AGE IS NOTHING BUT A NUMBER

That woman with the luggage has NO idea that she’s walking past a celebrity crossing the street in Manhattan. Ray Donovan star Liev Schreiber, 51, took his sons, his girlfriend Taylor Neisen, 26, and his dog, to the park for some basketball and skateboarding. Last night on SNL, Pete Davidson acknowledged the 20 year age difference between him and girlfriend Kate Beckinsale, and he called out a long list of celebrities in the same situation, but he forgot to name Liev Schreiber!

WHAT DID JAN MICHAEL VINCENT AND MEL GIBSON HAVE IN COMMON?

To be honest, we were surprised that Jan Michael Vincent lived as long as he did, considering how crazed from alcohol and drugs he was. In the early 80’s, Jan sometimes turned up at Joe Allen’s restaurant – a hangout for actors, and he was always loaded. We remember one night we encountered him (he was still handsome) leaning against the wall in the hallway leading to the bathrooms. Girl-fans were trying to flirt and chat but he staggered and slowly slid down the wall to the floor in a heap. He had to be helped out. We only recall seeing one other famous actor so out of his mind in public: Mel Gibson. We were in an after-hours LA club (80’s) and a very drunk but cute Mel, was bouncing around the dance floor with many females in hot pursuit. One after another, these predatory girls took him outside to their cars for “private time” with him. He staggered back looking a mess with lipstick on his face. They also passed him around like a toy for kisses on the dancefloor. Worse things can happen…

ROGER DALTREY: THIS IS WHAT A ROCKSTAR WHO AVOIDED DRUGS LOOKS LIKE

We were struck by how great Roger Daltrey looks in this London photo at the age of 75! And it’s NOT just the fact that he still has hair! The Who frontman maintains that while his band was notorious for drug and alcohol abuse – HE was more interested in protecting his voice. We think the fact that he is STILL married to the cute sixties model he married in 1971, backs up this claim. We were surprised to learn that Daltrey is only 5’6’ – wife Heather towers over him…

THE REAL REASON R KELLY FLIPPED OUT ON TV

R Kelly has been very smug and superior about sexual abuse charges against him – no doubt fortified by the fact that he has triumphed in court before. But EVERYTHING changed after the Michael Jackson doc Leaving Neverland aired last weekend. Viewers learned exactly HOW an abuser (especially a wealthy and famous one) can seduce and entrap a victim – and keep the victim from complaining. They also learned WHY it often takes YEARS for victims to confess the truth. Jackson’s two accusers were so sincere and believable that many minds have been changed. Accusations against R Kelly are similar and he now KNOWS he’s more likely to be found guilty and face prison. THAT’S what set him off on that crazy tirade. The public is smartening up and his days are numbered thanks to that documentary.

DIANE KEATON: THIS IS WHY WE LIVE IN LA

Yeah, there’s a lot of traffic and homeless people here, and rents are high, but in LA there’s always that feeling that anything can happen – and it WILL. Just when you feel like killing the driver who just cut you off, someone like DIANE KEATON appears in the crosswalk and you slam on the brakes in complete delight.

DON’T UNDERESTIMATE BRIE LARSON AKA CAPTAIN MARVEL!

It’s strange that we never realized how beautiful Brie Larson is. We remember loving her performance in Room in 2016, for which she won an Oscar, but we haven’t seen her in many other movies. Brie is actually attractive enough to star in the Grace Kelly story, if there ever is one. Beside her obvious assets, Brie happens to be a gender equality activist, and a founding member of Time’s Up. Now promoting her STARRING role in Captain Marvel, she noticed and POINTED OUT the lack of diversity in film critics and reporters – something that has always annoyed us, too. (Female critics see things differently!)

TINA TURNER: LOVE HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH IT

It’s so great to see Tina Turner looking healthy and happy. She turned up at the German premier of Tina -The Tina Turner Musical in Hamburg. Her marriage to Ike Turner may have been a disaster, but her relationship with German music executive Erwin Bach, is quite the opposite. After 27 years together, Tina and Erwin married in 2016 and she had a stroke three weeks later. He nursed her through that, cancer, and in 2017, he donated a kidney for Tina! THAT’S love. The Tina Turner Musical opens on Broadway this fall

OUR FAVORITE NEW COUPLE: PETE DAVIDSON AND KATE BECKINSALE

Guys everywhere must be scratching their heads, wondering how SNL’s goofy Pete Davidson managed to go from Arianna Grande to Kate Beckinsale – two exquisite and highly desirable females. Certainly both women must share an offbeat sense of humor that we never suspected. Of ALL people- Pete Davidson’s lovelife is now being chronicled like the Kardashians. Obviously Pete is not the loser he deliberately appears to be and it’s kinda fascinating. It’s nice that Pete bounced back from the depths of depression after the Arianna split – let’s hope he gets a grip…

KAREEM ABDUL-JABBAR HAS A WAY WITH WORDS

Never in a million years could we have guessed that we would be admiring 7”2” NBA basketball icon Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as a brilliant writer. But his thoughtful essays in The Hollywood Reporter have repeatedly floored us. Most recently, Abdul-Jabbar wrote about “Hollywood’ts Addiction to the Myth of Manliness” and it illustrates his common sense view of gender and racial bias and how Hollywood perpetuates the backward attitude of “boys will be boys.” He points out that sports coaches insult players by calling them “girls,” (implying they are weak or lazy) without realizing that it is as offensive as black-face. Regarding Liam Neeson’s recent confession, Kareem calmly admits that most men have ignorant past behavior that they need to apologize for in a way that acknowledges the pain caused and promotes a more enlightened perspective. Kareem is our new hero…
