WARREN BEATTY: BLAME PRICE WATERHOUSE FOR THAT OSCAR DEBACLE – NOT ME!

Whatever you do, don’t blame Warren Beatty for the Best Picture Oscar debacle on TV last night. The real culprit is Price Waterhouse Cooper – the company responsible for calculating the Oscar results and keeping the winners a secret. The Price company was on talk shows all last week bragging about their super security – they said they have TWO complete sets of winning envelopes delivered to the award show to make SURE the envelopes arrive safely. THAT explains why Emma Stone still had her winning envelope while Warren was handed the duplicate for Best Actress INSTEAD OF Best Picture. Upon opening it, Warren was visibly puzzled and showed it to Faye, probably hoping she would agree to stop the proceedings and ask for the RIGHT envelope. But she paid NO attention and blithely announced La LA Land as winner, leaving him up the creek. Too bad (or maybe not!) La La Land people were already into their speeches when the correction for Moonlight was made. Sam Rubin was among those careless reporters who scornfully speculated that Warren and Faye’s AGE had something to do with the error. (Ageism?) No, it was Price Waterhouse Cooper’s error and we don’t blame Warren for being insulted and carrying around that wrong envelope all night to prove it. However, this mistake DID provide a slam-bang ending for the show!

JUSTINE BATEMAN: LONG TIME NO SEE!

Anyone growing up in the 80’s fondly remembers the popular show Family Ties starring Michael J Fox. Justine Bateman starred as his petulant sister Mallory and the show made her a tabloid favorite. After the series ended in 1989 she drifted out of sight and later confessed that she suffered from anorexia and bulimia. She wasn’t kidding – we remember writing a story for Star magazine about her passing out in a rigorous exercise class – she claimed she hadn’t eaten that day. While her younger brother Jason Bateman developed a successful career, Justine occasionally guested on shows, but didn’t seem all that happy in show business. She got married and had two kids but most important- at the age of 50, she graduated from UCLA with a computer science degree. Yesterday she turned up at the United Voices anti-Trump rally in Beverly Hills.

YOU CAN HAVE THIS OUTFIT WORN BY AMAL CLOONEY

Apparently Amal Clooney shares our passion for vintage – and especially mod 1960’s clothing. This dress and coat combo looks like it could have been designed by Courreges in the swinging 60’s. (And it works for a woman expecting twins.) The original version was paired with white go-go boots, but Amal chose tasteful ankle boots. If you love this look, YOU can have it – and at a more affordable price. The original vintage coat and dress by Lilli Ann are currently listed for sale on eBay. Use this link to find it:

EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE MALIA OBAMA’S FRIEND

Malia Obama’s internship at The Weinstein Co is the talk of the town in NY. She started out reading scripts and will gradually earn more responsibilities. Malia seems to be enjoying her new friends at the film company. After work they often go out to restaurants and bars. Malia’s security are always behind her but she’s 18 and prudently sticks to drinking Red Bull. New interns are even being lured to the company with promises of possibly running into Malia. She’d better get accustomed to the paparazzi…

JARED LETO UNDERCOVER – NOT HIS BEST FASHION MOMENT

We’re not sure if Jared Leto is wearing this crazy outfit to fool and repel fans or he piled on the layers so his suitcase wouldn’t be so heavy. Either way he succeeded – we would NEVER have recognized him at LAX – he only has around eight square inches of skin showing. We have to congratulate the eagle-eyed paparazzi who actually spotted him.

ASAP ROCKY IS NOT LIKELY TO DROWN IN MILAN

Rapper ASAP Rocky is in Italy’s fashion capital, Milan, with his entourage for fashion week and he turned heads in the famous shopping district with this bright yellow attention grabbing outfit. He looks like he’s a non-swimmer on his way to a yacht party in that “inflatable” puffy vest. He’s wearing his favorite $2600.00 Gucci sweatshirt underneath. Yes – that’s what a Gucci hoody costs! Rocky is a nice looking guy (in our opinion without his grill) and he loves fashion, but nobody gets it right ALL the time…

MATTHEW PERRY’S CHIN HAS DISAPPEARED

Believe it or not. Matthew Perry, 47, was the youngest one of the Friends cast but he’s probably aging the worst. Granted, he had some health problems and ended up in rehab a few times, plus he smoked (still does?) so he didn’t lead the healthiest life. Somehow his chin receded into his plump neck and it’s time to take action. After all, he IS an actor. There are new procedures to eliminate double chin that don’t even involve surgery. Time for a visit to the Med Spa.

JOHN TRAVOLTA: FROM SCIENTOLOGY KINGPIN TO MAFIA DON

Against all odds, that John Gotti movie about gangster father and son, that’s been talked about for SO MANY years is actually being made! The new title is The Life and Death of John Gotti. And it’s a family affair – John Travolta is starring as the flamboyant mobster, his wife Kelly Preston is playing his movie wife Victoria Gotti, and their daughter Ella Bleu, 16, is playing the Gotti’s daughter Angel. Sounds weird, but back in 2011, Lindsay Lohan ALMOST had the role of Victoria and Ben Foster was asked to play John Gotti Jr! After years of script, director, and money problems, the film is full steam ahead – shooting in Manhattan. (Entourage’s Kevin Connolly is directing!) Travolta IS getting into character (above) and we love his new hair – he should keep it that way. We can’t help thinking about the similarities between Scientology and the Mafia….

PRISCILLA PRESLEY HAS DEFINITELY GOT HER TWIN GRANDDAUGHTERS

Priscilla Presley was embarrassed by that story circulating that her two granddaughters were in foster care while their parents are embroiled in divorce. The girls’ mother Lisa Marie, is supposedly in rehab and their father Michael Lockwood has been accused of having “inappropriate” photos of children on his computer. While they fight it out, Priscilla took custody. She brought the twins Finley and Harper to a hair salon in Beverly Hills – as if she WANTED to be seen. So far, Scientology doesn’t seem to be involved in this messy situation – Tony Ortega says Priscilla left Scientology on the down-low when her daughter Lisa Marie quit. After all, the whole family has to leave at once.

CHRISTINA EL MOUSSA IS READY FOR HER CLOSE-UP

Christina El Moussa has made up her mind that NOTHING is going to stop her career from going forward and she intends to continue working with her estranged husband Tarek – come what may. Their HGTV series “Flip or Flop” is a big success and it’s opened a lot of doors financially for the former couple (including real estate seminars.) Behind the scenes, Tarek has had miserable health problems to deal with – thyroid cancer, testicular cancer, and back surgery. Christina had a miscarriage and two babies to care for. As the marriage dissolved, their show was in jeopardy. Both came to their senses and are determined to carry on with the series. Their split might even increase ratings! She recently stopped dating that contractor Gary Anderson and Christina is on to bigger and better things. But why she’s dressed like this on a cold winter day in New York makes one wonder…
