Halle Berry was in the news when she spoke at a New York Times event and slammed California Governor Gavin Newsom for vetoing a bill regarding menopause (truth be told we aren’t quite sure of the specifics of the legislation, so we are holding off judgement until we do more research). Here’s what we know. There’s a reason the Academy Award winning actress is suddenly inserting herself in politics. My source says, believe it or not, Halle is eyeing a run for Governor in 2026 when Gavin is termed out. Halle feels if the state elected two former Republican actors as Governor (Ronald Reagan and Arnold Schwarzenegger) it’s high time they elected a Democratic actress. She’s mulling it over and you can expect an announcement early next year.
Prince Harry made headlines when he appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and made a veiled joke about Donald Trump. We can tell you this. Harry is actually being wooed to host a limited run talk show on Netflix (where he and Meghan Markle already have a development deal) and the first step was appearing as a guest on a show. The next step, as we can exclusively reveal, is for Harry to become a guest HOST and fill in on a show for a few episodes perhaps for Jimmy Kimmel. Depending on how he does, the final step would be doing his own once a week show. There are many details to be worked out and countless moving parts, but don’t be too surprised if Harry winds up sitting behind the desk and interviewing celebrities.
Speaking of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, her estranged father, Thomas, was rushed to a hospital in the Philippines for emergency heart surgery. We can tell you this. Harry is all but begging his wife to make peace with her father before it’s too late as he feels not only is it the right thing to do, but it also makes perfect sense from a public relations standpoint. Harry’s ultimate goal is to also reconcile with his own estranged family and he feels once Meg and her dad make peace, he will have the perfect opening to mend fences with his estranged brother, Prince William.
Tara Reid’s escapades at a Chicago hotel bar continued to be talked about. As we previously told you, Tara’s friends are worried she has fallen back into her party gal ways after being wheeled out nearly unconscious on a stretcher and spending 8 hours in a hospital. Here’s the latest update. After surveillance video showed no evidence of anyone drugging Tara’s drink, the American Pie actress is now calling friends and telling them she plans on being tested for narcolepsy and even a brain tumor. While Tara is insisting she’s not abusing drugs or alcohol, some friends are still worried she is, so this saga continues.
Armie Hammer was in the news when his comeback movie, Frontier Crucible premiered on December 2. Here’s what we can tell you. While the movie was wildly panned, Armie’s performance earned mostly positive reviews, and Jennifer Lopez noticed. In 2021, Armie was supposed to be the lead in J.Lo’s flick Shotgun Wedding but he was replaced by Josh Duhamel when serious allegations against him surfaced. Fast forward to 2025 and Armie was completely cleared of doing anything illegal. Now Jennifer feels their chemistry was TOO good not to work opposite him. For what it’s worth, Shotgun Wedding, was a complete flop and my source says J.Lo regrets rushing to judgment and having Armie replaced.
The late Matthew Perry was in the news after the doctor who pled guilty to supplying him ketamine was sentenced to 2.5 years in prison. Here’s what we know. Matthew’s former Friends costars have been quietly working alongside his family planning to establish a drug rehabilitation center in Los Angeles in his memory. The project is almost ready to be announced and a location not far from Matthew’s last home is being purchased. If all goes according to plan (there’s a lot of red tape) the nonprofit center will be open in late 2026.
Miley Cyrus’ engagement to Maxx Morando was in the headlines and we can tell you this. Miley’s formerly estranged father, Billy Ray Cyrus, has offered to host the upcoming wedding on his sprawling farm upside of Nashville, Tennessee. My source says that Billy’s girlfriend, actress Elizabeth Hurley, is the one who came up with the idea. Liz, who is known to toss a fabulous shindig, has even volunteered to work as the wedding planner to give Miley and Maxx the down home wedding of their dreams.
