JESSICA ALBA: HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY

Jessica Alba, 35, seems like one of those really involved Hollywood mothers. She’s frequently seen in the company of her two daughters Honor, 8, and Haven, 5, even though she has a billion dollar business to take care of. She doesn’t flaunt her children, but she doesn’t hide them from photographers either. Jessica took her girls to a toy store after school to make the first day back to classes more palatable. It’s startling to realize that Jessica, who mainly appears in teen and horror movies, has a net worth of 340 million thanks to her Honest Company that produces toxin-free home products. Yep, she’s WAY ahead of Gwyneth…

HEATHER LOCKLEAR IS DOING WHAT SHE DOES BEST

We haven’t seen Heather Locklear, 54, for awhile but she’s looking pretty darn good at a Beverly Hills screening of Tyler Perry’s new soap “Too Close to Home.” There were tabloid rumors that she was drowning her sorrows in alcohol after splitting with her plastic Surgeon boyfriend Dr Marc Mani last Spring. (Maybe HE had something to do with how good she looks today.) Whatever happened, she seems happy to be working now – she’s got a part on the series premiering on TLC August 22.

ASHLEY JUDD IS EARNING A DOCTOR’S DEGREE – AND IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ACTING!

Ashley Judd is clearly preparing herself for a political career and we’re all for it. What the world of politics needs most of all is more women. Being an actress can be a hindrance and a help. Judd has a famous and likeable face, but her political capabilities are untested. (She has already established herself as a political activist and humanitarian.) But she has been quietly preparing herself for the right moment – most likely to run for the Senate in her home state of Kentucky. She earned a masters degree from the John F Kennedy School of Government at Harvard and is now enrolled in the Ph.D program at UC Berkeley. Her stellar education will more than make up for her lack of political experience. She’s got our vote!

LIV TYLER’S FORMER FIANCEE LOOKS DOWN AND OUT

But looks can be deceiving. Joaquin Phoenix, 41, is actually a wealthy and successful actor – he only LOOKS homeless with that raggedy beard and hair in New York. In fact he’s filming his new thriller “You Were Never Really Here.” Phoenix plays a troubled war veteran who becomes something of a hero by rescuing women from sex traffickers. Eventually something goes horribly wrong and bad things happen. In case you forgot, Joaquin was engaged to the beautiful Liv Tyler back in the late 90’s when she was very young.

JENNIFER LOPEZ MAKES TIME FOR A DAY OF INDULGENCE

Jennifer Lopez dons a denim jumpsuit for 'Day of Indulgence' event

Even busy Jennifer Lopez found time to attend THIS party. Most magazines have a hard time getting top notch celebrities to show up at their parties – but In Style magazine knows the secret: Give away loads of freebies! The all-girl event called Day of Indulgence was held at a beautiful Brentwood home – and indulgent it WAS. Actresses bonded over free manicures, pedicures, massages, and spa treatments. Of course the food was amazing – salad bars, candy tables – everything a girl could want. Best of all was the shopping element- lingerie, makeup, Spanx of course, luggage, designer clothing of all kinds, and the price was right – FREE! The girls all left with overflowing shopping bags – Jennifer had a friend carry hers. Sounds dreamy…

DEE SNIDER ISN’T GONNA TAKE IT!

Twisted Sister’s Dee Snider, 61, has not lost much of his boundless enthusiasm and physicality when it comes to heavy metal concerts. He appeared at the Bloodstock metal fest in the UK and gave it all he had. You may recall, Donald Trump (Dee’s Celebrity Apprentice pal) used Snider’s song “We’re Not Gonna Take It” early in his campaign. Dee called Donald and told him he couldn’t support his political views (for one thing, Dee is pro-choice) so he didn’t want his song used. Donald said OK and they remain friends. Most astonishing thing about Dee is his amazing HAIR!

ARIEL WINTER: MAYBE MOTHER DID KNOW BEST!

If this is how Ariel Winter, 18, dresses to go to a summer party in Beverly Hills, we’re starting to think HER MOTHER WAS RIGHT. The Modern Family star was granted emancipation from her mother a few years ago – she complained that her mother was abusive – told her what to eat and didn’t allow her to wear sexy clothes. Her stage-mother mom Crystal WAS bossy, but it looks like Ariel has gone off the rails without supervision. Is she dressing like this to get back at her mother or does she just have bad taste? Her TV character Alex Dunphy is quite the opposite – a smart nerd. Ariel says she plans to attend UCLA this fall – hopefully, she will follow through and start dressing like a college girl.

LONI ANDERSON: LIVING WELL IS THE BEST REVENGE

Every time we see 80’s sex symbol Loni Anderson,71, we think of the book, “But Enough About Me” her ex-husband Burt Reynolds, 80, wrote a couple of years ago. Burt ungallantly wrote that marrying Loni was a “really dumb move” because one should “never marry an actress.” He criticized Loni’s free spending habits – he claimed “She bought everything in triplicate – from dresses to jewelry to china.” Burt recalled giving Loni an AX card with a $45,000 limit and says she maxed it out in a half hour. After six tumultuous years together Loni went on to marry a wealthier man, so no more money problems. Burt blew through most of his money so now he has to write books. One final insult to Loni: Burt insists the REAL love of his life was Sally Field.

“LITTLE MEN” GIVES BOYS A GOOD NAME

To be honest we get a little tired of seeing movies about BOYS, but this one is special in a lot of ways. Mid-summer is when many movie-goers grow weary of the abundance of mindless action and super-hero movies. So this film, full of tender feelings, is a delight. It’s much like real-life – sometimes happy or problematic, and sometimes sad. The friendship that develops between two awkward boys from opposite upbringings in New York is touching and sweet. Their parents problems are all too real. But life goes on. And this movie is well worth the price of admission.

JENNA ELFMAN: DON’T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER

Jenna Elfman may LOOK sweet but WATCH OUT if you have anything negative to say about Scientology! A few years ago a friend of ours was walking down the street in Los Feliz wearing a t-shirt that made fun of Scientology. Jenna and her husband Bodhi Elfman followed him and cornered him. They were OUTRAGED that he dared to imply negative things about their religion! Our friend laughingly defended his right to free speech, but the argument accelerated with Jenna loudly calling the guy a criminal and a BABY RAPIST! It’s a shocking term – but one that Scientologists seem to use freely to describe anti-Scientology people!
All we know is, we wouldn’t bother to complain about the church of Scientology if they paid taxes like the rest of us…
