You don’t often see Victoria Beckham in a t-shirt (although it IS Louis Vuitton) worn with her signature BIGpants at the airport, but her attire is becoming more casual. (And is that a teensy smile?) She used to fly in tight fitted suits with high heels and it could NOT have been easy. Today is her birthday and two hours after she arrived at LAX, her husband David arrived from somewhere with all their kids. Just in time to celebrate.

Carmen Electra, 44, was looking for action in a big way at Coachella this weekend and she turned a lot of heads in this skimpy outfit – including Tommy Lee’s. The two were observed partying it up on the last night of the festival. Maybe they’re old friends or maybe more. But they seem like a good match since Tommy, 55, is addicted to Playboy models. Plus Carmen has the honor of having gotten her name from her long-ago boyfriend Prince. Tommy was engaged in 2013, but hasn’t’ been seen with his “fiancée” in a long time…

Actually, Cher and Kim and Kourtney Kardashian DO have something in common besides heavy eye make-up – their Armenian-American heritage. They were all invited to the premier of The Promise – a romantic film that plays out during the Armenian genocide. (Apparently it was a no-Jenner evening.) It might be time for Cher to pull Bob Mackie out of retirement. Her outfit leaves a lot to be desired, and what can one say about that unfortunate sequin hat? Kim is her usual hyper-sexual self, but Kourtney looks cool and modern.

It looks like he’s doing just fine. In 2010, when Storage Wars premiered, collector Barry Weiss, 66, became the unexpected sex symbol on the show. (He’s single and wears well-chosen vintage apparel – plus he has a great head of hair.) Women of a certain age bombarded him with fan letters and marriage proposals. Barry says he started collecting vintage stuff (especially cars) years ago, while he was running his wholesale produce business. After he retired he became a reality star on Storage Wars. He left the show in 2013 but he’s still collecting. Above, he had an attractive date for lunch at The Palm in Beverly Hills. We just wonder what kind of car the valet brought around….

She may be in the middle of a complicated divorce, but Janet Jackson, 50, has never looked happier. Janet’s estranged husband Wissam Al Mana has hired a large staff of nannies to care for their precious boy. Wissam wants the child to be brought up in his Arabic family tradition. (Does that mean no dancing?) THIS could be a problem. The culture clash between Wissam’s family and Janet’s American family is bound to widen as little Eissa grows up.

Mel B cheered herself up with a new set of super-long extensions and looks happy arriving on the set of her new movie. You’d never guess she was in the middle of what might turn out to be the most scandalous divorce in memory. Her estranged husband Stephen Belafonte (not his birth name) is a sleazy con artist with a police record and he plans to make her suffer. Already there is talk of extortion and sex tapes, a pregnant nanny, and now the old girlfriends that Stephen brutalized are threatening to tell all. Mel and Stephen were both into kinky three-way sex and there are plenty of potentially talkative third parties. Obviously Mel was blinded by sexual attraction when she agreed to marry Belafonte and later she says she was afraid to leave. This outrageous divorce is destined to make Brangelina look like kid stuff.

You’d never guess by looking at her that Saved by the Bell actress Elizabeth Berkley was married to an acclaimed fashion designer. Her husband Greg Lauren was an artist who started his own line of deconstructed androgynous expensive one-of-a-kind sportswear sold at Barneys. It didn’t hurt that he’s the nephew of Ralph Lauren. Elizabeth’s style is more down to earth, especially now that she’s a mom to almost five year old Sky, who looks a lot like her. She’s come a long way since Showgirls– nowadays besides acting, Elizabeth has an advice website and writes self help books for teenage girls.

If you thought Gigi Hadid was born perfect, you were wrong, but she’s pretty close. This photo clearly shows her ultra-slim model body and her highly improbably full breasts. She’s friendly with a Kardashian and was probably influenced by their never-ending search for self-improvements. Models like Kendall Jenner and Gigi (and Taylor Swift) get small, subtle implants to look more natural. It’s interesting that women with implants are FAR more comfortable with nudity and more likely to show them off than natural women.

Dennis Quaid visited the Today show to talk up his new role on the Amazon series “Fortitude” – he happily cooperated for autographs and selfies on his way out. This week he discussed his cocaine use in the 80’s and it sort of explained his split with Meg Ryan in 1991. Dennis’s partners keep getting younger – his ex-wife Kimberly was twentysomething years his junior, and his current girlfriend Santa Auzina is 32 years younger. They spent Quaid’s 63rd birthday together on April 3 riding the rollercoaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain. We resent the fact that Dennis keeps getting acting job offers, but Meg Ryan doesn’t.

Cher made a big deal out of being escorted out of the back door at Craig’s restaurant to avoid the waiting paparazzi. And it makes no sense. If she didn’t want to be seen, why would Cher dine at the most heavily paparazzi-ed eatery in Hollywood? (Certainly not for the food!) Many famous faces are always there, and were that same night, and they leave through the front door! It makes you wonder if she has a stalker or something…
