HOLLYWOOD

BEST DRESSED PROTESTER

Creativity should NOT be overlooked, so we felt compelled to post a photo of this brilliant costume worn by a passive protester in New York. It’s devised to look like Vladimir Putin is being carried on the shoulders of Donald Trump. Note the long red tie and tiny hands. Humor is always welcome when making a point…

GEORGE CLOONEY IS SUING FRENCH MAGAZINE BECAUSE PHOTO REVEALS HIS DAD BOD – NOT BABIES’ FACES!

George Clooney is understandably irate because the French magazine Voici scooped the world with its cover of the Clooney twins and George doesn’t know where the outside photos were taken. He assumes a paparazzi trespassed on his property, but it’s not clear yet HOW the blurry pic was taken. Keep in mind. if George had simply released his own family photo, the competition for the first picture would not have escalated. Clooney says he’s filing lawsuits “for the safety of his family.” Really? The only thing noteworthy in the fuzzy pic is George’s big bare tummy. We think THAT’S really why he’s angry…

DENZEL WASHINGTON: NOT THE PARTY GUY HE USED TO BE

Denzel Washington looks like he’d rather NOT be where he is, but he turned up at The Nice Guy because his son John David Washington was celebrating his birthday there. (John stars on the series Ballers with Dwayne Johnson.) We remember a few years ago when Denzel was quite a party guy and we saw him in all the hot clubs – especially in New York. He was a big flirt but his wife Pauletta never gave up on him. Now they’ve been married for 34 years and have four kids – so she must be doing SOMETHING right!

LONG TIME NO SEE: WHITE HOUSE PROVOCATEUR MONICA LEWINSKY

In 1998, Monica Lewinsky, now 44, was one of the most famous people in the world, yet she wasn’t able to parlay her fame into a profitable career. It turned out she wasn’t as innocent as she claimed – Monica had an affair with her married high school drama teacher before Bill Clinton. And Hillary Clinton’s condemnation of Monica instead of her husband has left a black mark on her own character. Bad decisions all. Today Monica is still single and says she has a hard time getting a job although she is educated. She devotes a lot of time speaking out against online bullying. For some reason, we have a hard time feeling sorry for her…

SOFIA VERGARA GOT HER WISH

She may be the highest paid TV actress, but Sofia Vergara doesn’t waste time during hiatus. She was ecstatic to be cast opposite her husband Joe Manganiello, who has the lead in Stano– this is the first time they’ve worked together. It’s a romantic drama about a young baseball player who makes a terrible mistake and ends up serving 17 years in prison. He lost his career and the love of his life (played by Sofia.) When he’s released he tries to make up for lost time. They’re currently filming in Queens.

IT’S AMAZING THAT JENNIFER ANISTON AND JASON BATEMAN NEVER HOOKED UP

Nice to see Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux looking so content together at the ceremony for Jason Bateman’s star on the Walk of Fame. Jennifer and Jason have been friends for 22 years and have made five movies together. Jason has been friendly with both of Jennifer ‘s husbands as well as her assorted boyfriends. Jennifer likes to take a fun group of close friends along when she goes on vacation and Jason and his wife Amanda are always included. So it makes sense that she would make an amusing tribute speech at Jason’s event. Actually, Jennifer and Jason, both 48, would make a great on-screen couple…..

ROB LOWE’S SONS DON’T REALLY NEED JOBS ON TV

Rob Lowe is enjoying spending quality time and bonding with his two sons, Matthew, 23, and John, 21, while filming their new A&E reality adventure series The Lowe Files. (An unscripted take-off on The X-Files?) Supposedly, they will investigate “strange phenomenon and local legends” across the USA. Both boys are in college (studying law and technology science) and we wonder if they can keep a straight face during these “supernatural” situations. The Lowes will be talking to scientists and experts along the way. Sounds a little hokey, but we’ll give it a look…

CARA DELEVINGNE: IS LOOKING GOOD REALLY ENOUGH?

The usually moody Cara Delevingne is doing her best to promote her new movie Valerian and The City of a Thousand Planets – she even cracks a smile once in awhile. But we remain in a quandary- we are HUGE fans of director Luc Busson, and we ADORED The Fifth Element, as well as Lucy and The Professional. (They all happened to have great female characters.) If we come across The Fifth Element on TV we cannot change the channel. We were excited to see Valerian UNTIL we learned it is based on a COMIC BOOK. Maybe that’s why the title makes no sense. Critics say great visuals – no story. Is that enough?

HALLE BERRY COULDN’T LOOK BAD IF SHE TRIED

Looking adorable has always been easy for Halle Berry– she appeared at Comic-Con this weekend talking up her new movie Kidnap in her military green romper. (It’s difficult to believe she’s 50 years old!) Women love “Halle Berry in peril” films so we figure the movie will do okay. At Comic-Con Halle guzzled what she claimed was a whole glass of whiskey to prove she is NOT pregnant, as rumored. She looks happy-go-lucky lately so we assume she is between “man problems.”

CHRISTINA AGUILERA: THEY SAID IT WOULDN’T LAST

Christina Aguilera, 36, and Matthew Rutler, 32, have defied all expectations and predictions by staying together and appearing to be happy! They met in 2010 when Christina filmed Burlesque with Cher and Matt was a PA on the movie. Christina and her husband had just split up and she made the first move. Matt looked very young and everyone assumed he was just a fling. But we hear he’s a REALLY nice guy and got along well with Christina’s son Max, 9. They moved in together and had a daughter (Summer, 3) and we’re guessing Matt became a househusband because he gave up his Hollywood behind the scenes career. Christina and Matt have been engaged since 2014 and seem in no hurry to make it legal.
