IS LOOKING LIKE JACK NICHOLSON A BLESSING OR A CURSE?

AG061035_04nicholcut

Do these eyebrows look familiar? Ray Nicholson has his father Jack’s eyes and smirky smile. Jack, 77, and Ray were at the Saturday Night Live 40th Anniversary event last night and they checked out of their NYC hotel this morning. Ray, 23, is the youngest of Jack’s kids (his mother is Rebecca Broussard) and he’s following his dad into the movie business. He’s an aspiring director and has already worked on two projects.

HOW LUCKY IS LADY GAGA?

Gaga bends over backwards to keep her private life strictly off-limits, but word has leaked out that she got engaged to Chicago Fire star Taylor Kinney on Valentines Day. How lucky can a girl get? Other female pop stars may be selling more records, but Gaga is WAY ahead of them in the love department. She found an age appropriate guy (he’s 33 and she’s 28) who happens to be drop-dead gorgeous. In spite of his good looks, by all accounts, his ego is in check, he has good manners and ADORES Gaga. He understands her career and gives her free reign. What’s more, HE has a successful career, his own money, and doesn’t need hers!

DID YOU THINK “FIFTY SHADES OF GREY” WAS SEXY?

tumblr_nj5t0rKIuUfifty

Marketing for “Fifty Shades of Grey” has been brilliant. it opened in 58 countries simultaneously and pulled in 158 million dollars in one long Valentines weekend. As delighted as Universal Studios execs are, we wonder if people who paid to see the film are anywhere near as satisfied. We were lucky to be invited to a screening and agree with Madonna that the movie was NOT sexy. Jamie Dornan’s character Christian was rather prissy and kept hinting there was a dark reason for his dominant predilections, but we never learned what it was. In fact, there really was no plot. It was like half a book was filmed, and the overly long movie ended abruptly without much happening. Of course, negative word of mouth won’t matter, because big money has already been made.

CAMERON DIAZ: I’VE GOT A SECRET

AG060911_10(1)camcut

They only got married a few weeks ago, but ever since then Cameron Diaz has been wearing her husband Benji’s favorite color: black. Naturally we assume that our prediction is correct – they married in a big hurry because Cameron is pregnant. This weekend the couple went out on a double date with Benji’s twin Joel Madden and Nicole Richie to Giorgio Baldi. ALL FOUR wore black, perhaps in support of Cameron, who is keeping her secret. She’s not in the habit of wearing baggy black wrap-around dresses, so feel free to jump to conclusions. We’re happy for her.

FASHION WEEK FAILURE: KESHA

132642PCN_Kesha06cut
Kesha wins Worst Dressed of the week, hands down. She was in New York FOR FASHION WEEK wearing this dowdy and incredibly unflattering dress. It’s absolutely shapeless and too long, to boot. Those SLEEVES! Has Kesha forgotten that she’s a pop star? While she’s at it, Kesha should rethink that long wavy extension hairdo – she needs something more original. Hopefully, she’ll pick up some ideas from the fashionistas.

ZOE SALDANA AND MARCO PERAGO DO THE MATH

132723PCN_ZSaldana05(1cut)

Two heads are better than one. Zoe Saldana and her Italian husband Marco Perago are no different from the rest of us when it comes to parking. They are carefully calculating how long it will take them to eat lunch so the meter doesn’t run out. Zoe gave birth to their twin boys, Bowie and Cy, just three months ago and already she and Marco are hiking in the hills with the babies strapped to their chests. The new parents still take time to be alone together. They seem like one of the happiest couples in Hollywood.

WHO’D HAVE GUESSED THAT SUZANNE SOMERS WOULD TURN OUT TO BE A MOGUL?

AG060877_05suzcut

Suzanne Somers looks hot in royal blue, but remains a controversial figure in Hollywood. She’s made a fortune on the shopping channels selling all kinds of fashions, beauty products, and vitamins, and has written books about how to stay young with the help of hormones. Remember her Thighmaster? Medical experts have criticized her health advice, but she has plenty of fans who love her books and products. The former “Three’s Company” pin-up girl is 69 now and looks splendid. And she’s been married to the same man – Alan Hamel– for thirty eight years!

IS THAT KANYE WEST OR A BURGLAR?

Kanye West walked out of his Soho apartment dressed exactly like a burglar, all in black, with a hoodie, EXCEPT for his expensive designer sneakers. He’s on his way to a presentation event for his Yeezy sneaker collection for Adidas. Kanye’s sneakers sell for around $350, but they are limited editions (9000 pairs produced) so the value goes way UP. Expect to see them on eBay for $10,000! That white pair looks like it will add a few inches of height!

SPANDAU BALLET: NOT AS FASHION OBSESSED AS THEY USED TO BE

132586PCN_Spandau08cut

30 years ago, Spandau Ballet debuted at the Festival Della Canzone in San Remo, Italy, and they’re back for more. We always remember the group as a bunch of designer-clad pretty boys. After years of squabbling, their sons talked them into getting back together. Martin Kemp, Tony Hadley, Gary Kemp, Steve Norman and John Keeble patched up their differences and are performing together again. Below, watch their “True” video.

MARILYN MANSON HAD FARRAH FAWCETT HAIR IN HIGH SCHOOL

younghmanson-1cut

We happened upon this photo of Marilyn Manson as a teenager (real name Brian Warner) and felt it was too fascinating NOT to share. Imagine that! Blonde, fluffy almost Farrah Fawcett hair, and a mustache! Manson admitted to Rolling Stone that he actually had some plastic surgery when he was a teen. It was his mother’s idea. She thought his earlobes were too long and she had them nipped. Presumably he was then free to sweep his hair back and create a new look for himself.
