BRITNEY SAYS BYE-BYE ONE MORE TIME

Uh-oh. The word is out – everyone in Britney Spears’ camp is on high alert scrambling to find a new boyfriend for her. Britney’s not happy when she’s alone and her father wants to make sure that her boyfriends are not freeloaders or fame-seekers. Earlier in her career (after Justin Timberlake) she made some spectacularly bad choices. And she does tend to jump into relationships quickly. It must be confusing for her sons. She eliminated all Instagram photos of her latest boyfriend of eight months, Charlie Ebersol, and they haven’t been seen together since May. Britney’s 33 now and good guys just get scarcer and scarcer…

WHAT WENT WRONG WITH THE ENTOURAGE MOVIE

entourage-movie-castcut

We loved watching Entourage on TV and couldn’t wait to see the movie, despite negative reviews. What a letdown. The naïve wide-eyed young men who just arrived in Hollywood from Queens were gone. We could no longer identify with them because success had turned Vinnie and his pals into those self centered white men who celebrate excess and male privilege in Hollywood. Ego, money, and trophy women were all that mattered. Almost all the guys became as obnoxious as Ari Gold and HIS overacting was unbearable. The F word was in almost every line of dialogue – have never seen ANY movie with more F bombs. Even Jessica Alba awkwardly hurled several in her brief cameo. Jessica Alba! In fact EVERY guest star used the F word repeatedly. The guys we liked on TV had morphed into first class sexist jerks. Success has obviously gone to writer/director Doug Ellin’s head and he’s turned into a real life Ari Gold. It’s not pretty.
Afterthought: The movie’s opening credits were awesome and photography was exceptional.

CAPTAIN SULLY IS NOW A MOVIE

70784PCN_CNN30sullycut

Of course. The story of Captain Sullenberger – the nonchalant pilot who miraculously and safely landed a disabled jet on the Hudson River in 2009 and saved all the passengers – is being filmed by Clint Eastwood. (There’s nothing Clint likes better than a hero – or heroine.) And who better to play the modest hero than Tom Hanks! Tom is currently negotiating for the role and we can’t imagine better casting.

PRINCE JACKSON: HIS FATHERS WOULD BE PROUD

AG075367_02princej

Now that he’s eighteen, Prince Jackson is enjoying the benefits of his father’s trust fund. He’s driving a $200,000 Mercedes (how boring is that?) AND he has yet another girlfriend. Prince graduated from high school with honors this year and fortunately he’s going on to college at Loyola Marymount University, and aims at a career in filmmaking. In case you hadn’t noticed, every year it becomes more evident that his biological father is Michael Jackson’s dermatologist Dr Arnold Klein, as we have always insisted. Not only is Prince a dead ringer for Klein, he inherited his intelligence.

ZOE SALDANA TELLS IT LIKE IT IS

138691PCN_POLAR_35zoecut

Another reason to love Zoe Saldana. She picked the right man to marry. Her progressive husband Marco Perego announced proudly that he has taken his wife’s last name. Perhaps emboldened by her supportive feminist husband, Zoe, who recently gave birth to twins, took the time to point out the fact that pregnant women are not welcome in Hollywood. Actresses with children are rarely offered child care or nannies when working, while men get all kinds of perks – like penthouses, jets, and bodyguards. Keep up the good work, Zoe.

BRITNEY SPEARS AT LAX: THE INDIGNITY OF IT ALL!

Britney Spears is one of the most famous pop stars around, but at the airport she doesn’t get any special treatment when it comes to security. She and her two sons Sean and Jayden had to go through two screening devices and something about Britney kept setting off alarms. She had to take off her hat, her glasses, and her shoes and became increasingly annoyed as she attracted more and more attention. But she kept her cool.

WOODY ALLEN DOESN’T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF

AG075137_01woodycut

Soon-Yi Previn is in New York and looks a little annoyed that her car service hasn’t appeared, but her husband Woody >Allen is more amused at the glitch. Woody’s new film, Irrational Man, stars Joaquin Phoenix as a philosophy professor who creates a stir when he arrives at a small Eastern college. He’s in a state of depression despite attention from a female professor (Parker Posey) and a cute student (Emma Stone.) Ultimately there is a murder involved and that makes the light romance far more interesting.

JANET JACKSON: DRAMA WHEREVER SHE GOES

AG075072_02janet

Janet Jackson turned up at LAX today to catch a flight and she had two bodyguards guarding her every step of the way. Strangely, her husband Wissam Al Mana kept a considerable distance and slipped through the airport almost unnoticed. Janet looks better than she did last time we saw her – at least we can see her face and hair. She’s rarely been seen since she got married two years ago, but apparently she missed the spotlight and now has a major tour starting in late August. She certainly doesn’t need the money.

AT LAST – CHARLIZE HAS COME TO HER SENSES AND SPLIT WITH SEAN PENN! HOORAY!

136846PCN_MAX_052cut

According to US Weekly, Charlize Theron broke off her engagement to Sean Penn after two years of togetherness. Recently they had both opened up and started saying sweet things about each other in interviews. We figured it would only be a matter of time before Sean’s bad temper would do him in. His two ex-wives were charmed by him at first, but suffered through his bitter macho moods, and we feared Charlize would endure the same fate. But our girl wised up just in time! Charlize may be feeling sad now, but in the long run she and her little boy are better off without Sean.

DON’T MESS WITH JENNA ELFMAN

AG074915_01dharma

“Dharma & Greg” star Jenna Elfman and her cute little boy are preparing to take off at LAX. She’s an active and longtime Scientologist as is her husband, actor Bodhi Elfman. Every time we see her now we can’t help but think of an incident she had with an acquaintance of ours a few years ago. Independent filmmaker John Roecker was walking in Los Feliz, and he happened to be wearing a homemade t-shirt that said “Scientology is Gay.”(He’s openly gay himself.) Dharma and her husband walked up to him on the street and accused him of insulting their religion. A heated exchange resulted in Jenna accusing John of being a “baby rapist” – a term commonly used by members to describe “enemies of the church.” Shocking. Apparently, belittling Scientology equates with being a child molester.
