BRETT RATNER: NO MORE FANCY HAIRCUTS, EITHER!

This is the best news we’ve heard all day. According to the Hollywood Reporter, those fancy offices on the Warner Bros. lot aren’t ALL that former Wonder Woman producer Brett Ratner, 48, has lost due to his sexual misconduct with women. He’s suddenly found that he isn’t welcome in some places WHERE WOMEN ARE IN CHARGE! Case in point: The Sally Hershberger Hair Salon in West Hollywood. (Sally is responsible for Meg Ryan’s famous ‘do and she gets $600 for a haircut.) Until recently Brett was a steady customer at the luxury salon, but he’s been told he is no longer welcome there! We love Sally for that.

THINGS ARE LOOKING UP FOR BILLY BUSH

Christmas might not be quite as bad as it could be for Billy Bush this time around. He lost his lucrative job on NBC’s Today Show last year, due to his infamous taped conversation with Donald Trump. In September he and his wife Sydney separated, and he seemed to be jobless and at rock bottom. But he’s been seen with his estranged wife several times this week – and they just dined at the Grove with two of their daughters- so all is not lost.

JAY-Z DOESN’T WANT TO BE MISTAKEN FOR A MISOGYNIST

Since even Russell Simmons (who seems so civilized) has been accused of sexual impropriety, you can bet plenty of men in Hollywood are shaking in fear of their own pasts. Jay Z made a gallant effort to separate himself from “those guys” during his concert Sunday in Cleveland. He noticed an excited looking little girl close to the stage and he told her “You could be President some day!” The crowd cheered and she jumped up and down. Jay Z continued “At this moment, America is more sexist than racist!” instantly endearing himself to the females in the crowd. Jay Z knows he has a good life with his wife Beyonce, (who earned 105 million this year) and doesn’t want ANYTHING to mess it up.

BARRON TRUMP IS NOT EASILY IMPRESSED

We don’t get to see Barron Trump very often but it looks like he’s grown about six inches in the past year! His mother Melania Trump is around 5’10” and his father is 6’2”, but Barron looks to be around six feet tall at the age of 11! He’s actually quite nice looking despite the fact that he did inherit his father’s lower face. Barron rarely takes part in White House events like the Obama girls did, but he joined Melania for the official Christmas tree delivery. Ho hum. He doesn’t look very excited about it, however.

BEST AND WORST DRESSED: AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS 2017

BEST DRESSED: Hands down, Selena Gomez was voted Best Dressed at the American Music Awards the minute she set foot on the red carpet. Not only is she dressed appropriately for the occasion – young, rock n roll, sexy, but not TOO sexy, with brand new blonde hair, but she didn’t look like she was trying TOO hard. And everyone was happy to see her looking as beautiful and healthy as ever after her liver transplant.
WORST DRESSED: We like Kelly Clarkson far too much to let her stylist get sway with THIS! Kelly is beloved for her natural, wholesome good looks- and this look at the AMA’s couldn’t be more artificial. (Talk about trying TOO hard!) That heavy makeup (black lipstick?) matronly too-fancy gown, and droopy extensions make her look like a cross between a 1980’s country singer and a Goth opera singer. That’s NOT our sweet Kelly. Did you know she has a ranch in Texas for unwanted (blind, crippled etc) animals? We rest our case.

SALLY FIELD LUGS HER OWN GROCERIES

When Sally Field, 71, is in New York she doesn’t really expect any paparazzi to spot her shopping at Whole Foods so she doesn’t think much about dressing up. One eagle-eyed photographer snapped her returning from the supermarket, but she seemed oblivious. Sally always seems to be working- she’s currently appearing on the Netflix dark comedy series, Maniac, with Jonah Hill and Emma Stone.

THE BALLPLAYING THIEVES WHO DISGRACED UCLA BROUGHT OUT THE WORST IN OTHERS!

When we heard that three UCLA basketball players had been arrested in China for SHOPLIFTING, we were flabbergasted at how stupid the guys must be. And they’re IN COLLEGE! It turns out that security footage revealed the three guys- all around 19 or 20 – stole Louis Vuitton sunglasses (average price $700) and other stuff from three stores near their hotel. A big heist – and it was all found in their luggage. Stealing thousands of dollars of merchandise can get you ten years in prison in China. (Having owned a store, we have no sympathy for thieves.) Apparently President Trump helped get them released (and of course he wanted a pat on the back!) The father of one player was equally stupid when he said he doubted the president’s role in getting the players released and sniffed that shoplifting was “no big deal.” NO WONDER the kid is a thief – with a father like that! Of course, all this inspired our chatty president to reply “I should have left them in jail.” Maybe he should have.

RITA WILSON: STRESS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT

You’ve gotta love Rita Wilson for being SO open about her breast cancer and, above, raising money for the cause. She was diagnosed in 2015 and had a double mastectomy and reconstruction surgery, and during the ordeal, she learned a LOT. She detailed her entire healing process in a story she wrote for Harper’s Bazaar, along with important info she picked up along the way – like anxiety has NOTHING to do with cancer, and how mindful meditation helped her state of mind. She even talked about bra shopping afterward – her intimate story will help many women get a grip on their disease and treatment.
(Above, Rita performed at at a fundraiser for Stanford Women’s Cancer Center – husband Tom Hanks was there too)

PAULA ABDUL: FIT AS A FIDDLE AND READY FOR WHATEVER

What’s up with Paula Abdul? She has never looked better – but we rarely see her any more! Paula, 55, has a history of odd or extreme behavior. She has always complained about back injuries and other severe pain but swore she didn’t use drugs – as many observers suspected. But them she gave a magazine interview and admitted she used many painkillers and hinted she went to rehab. Later she denied the entire magazine story. Last we heard, her health had improved – and she looks it.

TAKE THE PEPSI CHALLENGE

Soft drink sales have been steadily declining since SUGAR was declared man’s worst enemy. So what does Pepsi do to boost sales? They introduce HOLIDAY FLAVORS – first to appear in the US is the Salted Caramel concoction. Pepsi claims the drink has less sugar but they fail to say much about the extra syrupy flavoring. In one way we’re dying to try it – but we hope we don’t like it…
