RIHANNA STOLE THE SHOW AT HER MOVIE PREMIER

Rihanna made yet another incredible entrance at the Hollywood premier of her sci-fi action film Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, directed by Luc Besson. Rihanna is gradually turning herself from pop star to actress and this movie is a big step for her. She plays a glamorous shape shifting alien working in an underground sex club where she performs in dozens of extravagant outfits. If this movie is anything like Busson’s The Fifth Element, we couldn’t be happier. Valerian has been called the “most expensive movie ever made in France.”

CHANNING TATUM ISN’T THE ONLY STRIPPER/ACTOR IN HOLLYWOOD

We ran across this delightful photo of Chippendale’s dancers in the early 80’s at the Dangerous Minds website, and it reminded us that more than a few Hollywood men have graced those male stripper stages. (We frequented the West LA Chippendale’s back in the day because they were one of the few clubs open after hours until 4 AM.) The dancers were never really enticing –and this photo shows why. Of course, everyone knows Channing Tatum started out as a male stripper, but did you know that Chris Pratt and Mark Consuelos stripped onstage too? Also, Joey Lawrence, Ian Ziering, Mike “the situation” Sorrentino, and Tyson Beckford, too. Hopefully they had better haircuts than the guys above.

QUENTIN TARANTINO FOUND THE FEET OF HIS DREAMS

Never-married director Quentin Tarantino, 54, just got ENGAGED a few days ago to Israeli singer Daniela Pick, 33. They’ve known each other for eight years, but Tarantino admitted he was too obsessed with making movies to even THINK about having a personal life. Coincidentally or not, he’s been talking about retiring from the film business (we presume after the Manson film.) Given Tarantino’s well-documented foot fetish, it’s interesting to note Daniela’s sexy feet and transparent heels….

CINDY AND KAIA: TWO GENERATIONS OF EYE CANDY

Kaia Gerber, 15, seems to grow up a little more every time we see her – just cutting some bangs makes her appear to be almost legal. She COULD be a giant problem for her parents Cindy Crawford and Randy Gerber – certainly modeling opportunities might interfere with her education. And we can only imagine all the boys who have their eyes on her. Kaia and her mom dined at Nobu together and no doubt they turned heads of all ages…

EJ JOHNSON WILL NEVER BE MISTAKEN FOR A HOUSEWIFE

Bristol Farms is the fanciest supermarket in Beverly Hills and it’s always loaded with celebrities. Sometimes it’s difficult to notice them, however, because the food is so amazing. Yesterday we were there to purchase some freshly carved turkey and we missed seeing EJ Johnson who shopped a few hours later. Now this is one celebrity NOBODY could overlook – thanks to EJ’s flamboyant apparel. We’re quite sure he livened the place up with his cut-off shorts and billowing sheer wrap. Losing weight really changed EVERYTHING for him.

“THE BIG SICK” WILL SURPRISE YOU IN A GOOD WAY

The mere IDEA of a romantic comedy makes us WINCE – picturing the same awkward silly scenes we’ve seen dozens of times with the likes of Katherine Heigl or Jennifer Aniston. For us, having not-so familiar actors like Kumail Nanjiani and Zoe Kazan makes a movie more relatable and believable. Experiencing the movie The Big Sick is like reading a very satisfying book – you love the characters and don’t want it to end. It’s smart, well-written, funny and serious- everything you hope for in a story.

CAITLYN JENNER’S WARDROBE MALFUNCTION

Too bad that Caitlyn Jenner is not on speaking terms with the Kardashian klan, because the girls would never have let her leave the house without Spanx. Kourtney, Kim, Kris, and Kylie all rave about the importance of the figure controlling garment. And they don’t mind showing it off. Apparently no one in her family made the effort to explain the the necessity of wearing Spanx under tight clothes to Caitlyn. Nobody said it was EASY being a woman…

GAVIN ROSSDALE: LOVE ME – LOVE MY DOG!

Looks like Gwen Stefani’s ex-husband Gavin Rossdale, 51, is doing okay in the romance department. For the past few months he’s been dating German model/actress Sophia Thomalla, 27, and she DOES seem fond of his ever-present dog Chewy. The pair met while he was appearing as a coach on The Voice in the UK. Now they’re together in Los Angeles. Sophia has dated several European rock stars so Gavin is right up her alley.

ANGELINA JOLIE: JUST ANOTHER DAY AT DISNEYLAND

Angelina Jolie and her six kids just returned from Namibia in Africa where they officially opened a wildlife sanctuary named after Shiloh, because she was born there. Angelina asked the twins Vivienne and Knox where they’d like to celebrate their 9th birthday and of course they chose their favorite place, Disneyland. Other visitors paid little attention to the famous family and their little entourage. This photo of the girls, Shiloh, 11, Zahara, 12, and Vivienne, was taken while the boys were on the roller coaster.

CELINE DION: HER DERANGED CANADIAN STYLIST MAKES A COMEBACK

It may LOOK like we’re picking on Celine Dion, but in fact no other celebrities have been able to steal her Worst Dressed title for the past few weeks. She’s still in Paris, and last week Celine was photographed wearing some nice clothes for a magazine and she looked very attractive. But apparently that Canadian stylist has gotten a grip on her again and she appeared in this weird get-up. None of the separate pieces are horrible, but taken TOGETHER, they are over the top and creepy. (and ill-fitting!) The purpose of dressing up should be to look pretty and interesting – this look fails on both counts.
