CRISTIANO RONALDO: IT’S A TANGLED WEB HE WEAVES…

AG072487_24criscut

Soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, 30, happens to be the undisputed hottest athlete in the world right now- and certainly one of the wealthiest. His split with Russian model Irina Shayk after five years was big news in the gossip world. Since then he’s dabbled with a few mannequins, but this weekend turned up at Monaco’s Gran Prix with model Cara Delevigne. Meanwhile his ambitious ex girlfriend Irina hooked up with Bradley Cooper, who recently split with model Suki Waterhouse, who has long been a close friend of Cara’s. Complicated? Yes. It’s not easy keeping track of modelizers and their prey….

THE JOY AND TRAGEDY OF AMY WINEHOUSE

The Amy Winehouse documentary was a huge success at Cannes – the audience loved it, her family – not so much. This trailer reminds us of how much we miss her. We loved writing about her and loved her style in photos. As the doc points out – she was a girl who just wanted to be loved….only she picked the wrong guy.

GERARD DEPARDIEU: TOO MUCH OF EVERYTHING?

137618PCN_Love04cut

When we saw this photo from Cannes and learned that Gerard Depardieu and Isabelle Huppert costarred as husband and wife in “Valley of Love” we were appalled. He looked SO much older – it was like Hollywood casting where leading ladies are decades younger than leading men. Gerard, 66, is an appealing actor, but has not taken good care of himself. Imagine our surprise when we learned that girlish Isabelle is an age appropriate 62! She looks so fresh and young compared to him. You’ve got to give credit to French women who maintain their looks – but not the men.

STEVE CARELL: ANOTHER CHARACTER YOU LOVE TO HATE

137535PCN_Carell01(1)cut

Steve Carell changed his appearance for “Foxcatcher” last year and it got him an Oscar nomination, so why not try it again? He’s playing a slimy money manager who profited enormously from the 2007 economic meltdown in “The Big Short” currently filming New York. Steve highlighted his hair, gained a few pounds, put on an expensive suit, and assumed a vile attitude to get into character. The movie comes out next year.

NO PINK TUTUS FOR NORTH WEST

137577PCN_KimK07cut

North West is not even two years old and she’s already taking tap and ballet classes. Kim picked up her daughter after class and we’re betting Nori was the only student dressed all in BLACK! It’s her father Kanye’s favorite color. Imagine that – a black tutu! Nori also has a black leather motorcycle jacket like her mom’s, that Kim is carrying. We wonder if she’ll rebel when she gets a bit older and insist on PINK like the other little girls wear.

RUMER WILLIS HAS THE LAST LAUGH

137486PCN_Rumer15(1)cut

It was SO nice to see Rumer Willis win first place on Dancing with the Stars. This girl has been tortured by online haters more than any celebrity’s kid or actress we know. For some reason haters decided she wasn’t pretty enough to be Demi Moore’s daughter and they relentlessly bullied and insulted her. She admits it was terribly upsetting and almost ruined her life. Last night she got her life back. She IS a winner, after all!

RENEE ZELLWEGGER: HAPPINESS HAS STRINGS ATTACHED

AG071965_01renecut

Rene Zellweger, 45, has been happy for the two years she’s been with her musician boyfriend Doyle Bramhall, also 45, but his ex-wife is not so thrilled. Doyle divorced Susannah Melvoin in 2010, (remember her? She’s also a musician and had a fling with Prince back in the day.) Doyle and Susannah have two daughters and she claims that he’s neglectful in financially supporting his kids. Meanwhile, Doyle is living it up at Renee’s lush home in Montecito, California, so Susannah is REALLY irked. Some musicians have charmed lives. Hopefully things will work out for Renee because she admits to being VERY fond of Doyle. (Above, Renee and Doyle arrive at LAX)

RYAN REYNOLDS REALLY DOES LOVE ANIMALS

Ryan Reynolds loves animals so it makes sense that he would welcome having kids of his own. He took time out from cooing over his new daughter James and visited a Safari park in Canada. He’s in his hometown Vancouver, filming Deadpool and has been using Twitter to apologize to city residents because his filming tied up traffic. At the Safari park he used some greens to lure a giraffe into his car window and couldn’t help planting a kiss on it. He resisted the urge to kiss a jumbo tortoise, however.

“FAR FROM HEAVEN” DIRECTOR TODD HAYNES MAY HAVE DONE IT AGAIN!

137344PCN_Carol30cut

Three of our favorite people created a movie together that they showed in Cannes to considerable fanfare and a standing ovation. Can’t WAIT to see it! The guy in the middle is Todd Haynes, the incredible director responsible for one of our all-time favorite movies, Far From Heaven. Heaven starred Julianne Moore and Dennis Haysbert and took place in Connecticut in the 1950’s. It was gorgeously photographed and incredibly sensitive. Haynes is masterful at creating a midcentury vibe. His latest is called “Carol” and it concerns an aspiring young woman who works as a department store clerk, and falls in love with an older married woman. It takes place in the 50’s in New York City. Rooney Mara (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) plays the young clerk and Kate Blanchett plays the older woman. Kate’s dress at the premier is a knockout, by the way.

JONAH HILL USES HIS BEST ASSET IN MIAMI

137399PCN_JonahH08cut

It’s tough to be in Miami – the land of beautiful bodies- when you’re not in the best of shape. Jonah Hill is filming “Arms and the Dudes” there with Miles Teller and he’s packed on more than a few pounds lately. But he still manages to flirt. Jonah showed up in the hotel pool in a black t-shirt and turned on the charm for two bikini girls. They found his jokes hilarious and couldn’t stop laughing. (A sense of humor is always appealing.) It’s a good beginning.
