KIRSTIE ALLEY’S NEW BEST FRIEND: SUPER DUPER BODY CONTROL SPANX

#kirstiealley #spanx #janetcharlton

Kirstie Alley is obsessed with winning “Dancing With The Stars” this time around and she’s taking it very seriously. Not only is she rehearsing endlessly and actually watching what she eats, but she had a very important request for the wardrobe department. She asked for customized heavy-duty Spanx that won’t show under her dance costumes no matter how high she kicks. Kirstie is still pushing her Scientology backed Organic Liaison diet products and she can’t afford to look chubby or people might think it doesn’t work….

BARRY MANILOW SWEARS BY ELECTRONIC CIGARETTES

#barrymanilow #janetcharlton

Speaking of Las Vegas, we love Barry Manilow, but he’s definitely looking more line-free every day. We just came across this photo on Facebook. He has remarkably smooth skin for a person who started smoking at 9, and puffed 3 packs a day for decades. Now he and his band are all using electronic cigarettes.

MICHAEL DOUGLAS AND MATT DAMON: TWO GLAMOROUS PEAS IN A POD

#Mmichaeldouglas #liberace #janetcharlton

The more photos of Michael Douglas and Matt Damon we see from the HBO movie “Behind the Candelabra” the more we salivate to see the movie. This is a still from Liberace’s Las Vegas home (note the initial on the bottom of the pool) and he and his boyfriend (played by Matt) are wearing matching short and long caftans. Everybody knew the flamboyant Liberace was gay, but nobody said it – until the chauffeur/boyfriend came along. Both guys look very authentic. Can’t WAIT to see this!

COCO AUSTIN AND LIAM NEESON? NOT EXACTLY BIRDS OF A FEATHER…

#liamneeson #cocoaustin #janetcharlton


Ice T’s wife Coco Austin is a big fan just like everyone else. She flipped when she ran into Liam Neeson at a New York Jets game and just HAD to have a photo together. Good-natured Liam never turns down a fan – he’s busy promoting his new movie “Taken II.” Coco couldn’t resist posting the photo online. By the way, she’s taking over Holly Madison’s role in Peepshow in Las Vegas. We bet Liam could get in free.

BREAKING AMISH: REBECCA’S NOT SUCH A GOOD GIRL

breakingamish #janetcharlton

“Breaking Amish” continues to create problems for TLC when it comes to “reality.” TLC claimed the five young Amish people featured were inexperienced and had never left their communities. Websites are popping up online claiming that several of the cast members have not lived the Amish life for quite awhile. A photograph of Abe and Rebecca holding a baby that appeared on his brother Andy’s Facebook page (Facebook?) has critics saying they already have a child together. And a photo of Rebecca allegedly at a pool party in 2010 after she was too modest to wear a swimsuit on the show, DOES imply fakery. Kate (the one with the DUI in Florida) had no trouble modeling a bikini on one episode. Expect more revelations as the show continues – how will TLC explain all this? The premise of the series is fascinating – too bad it wasn’t produced with more attention to detail – and truth.

IKEA IS PANDERING TO MISOGYNISTS

#ikea #janetcharlton

Is anybody else tired of “respecting” other people’s religions even when it means demeaning and insulting women? And to think we always had such a high opinion of Ikea! It has been revealed by the Stockholm paper Metro, that ALL WOMEN have been deleted from the Ikea catalog for Saudi Arabia! Every image of a female – including a photo of Audrey Hepburn was edited OUT. Ikea is in the habit of tailoring catalogs for each country to appeal to local taste and cultural standards but THIS is too much. When confronted with this insult to women, an Ikea rep gulped and admitted the move is “in conflict with company values and Ikea is reviewing its procedures.” No kidding.
UPDATE: This morning Star Jones said she didn’t see anything wrong with what Ikea did.

JOHN TRAVOLTA’S GOTTI MOVIE IS “SLEEPING WITH THE FISHES”

#johntravolta #gotti #janetcharlton

John Travolta’s gay sex scandal might NOT be the only reason for the collapse of the much heralded “Gotti: In The Shadow Of My Father” movie. Last year the proposed movie got a lot of publicity when Lindsay Lohan was chosen to play Victoria Gotti. Lindsay ‘s behavioral problems led to her being replaced by Kelly Preston. Strangely, John Travolta, his wife and daughter Ella ALL had parts in the troubled movie. Directors and actors came and went, but when producers were revealed to be two wiseguys who served time in prison, things really fell apart. After the Travolta scandal hit the papers, an associate of the Gotti family doubted that Gotti Jr would want John to play his father, but John Jr insisted that was NOT true. Having gangsters as producers IS probably a bad idea, however. (We love any excuse to post a photo of Victoria Gotti’s three sons – above.)

HEIDI KLUM: IS HER BODYGUARD/BOYFRIEND MARTIN KRISTEN ON, OR OFF-DUTY?

#heidiklum #janetcharlton

Heidi Klum and her bodyguard/boyfriend Martin Kristen took her kids Leni, Lou, Henri, and Johan, to a Los Angeles park and Martin seems to be on duty. We wonder how Heidi decides when Martin is on the payroll working and when he is just keeping her company. For example, if she invites HIM out to dinner does she pay for his security services? We’re assuming if HE takes her out to dinner there is no charge. Still, it’s complicated.

HARPER BECKHAM HAS HER EYE ON THE SOCCER BALL

#harperbeckham #janetcharlton


Victoria and David Beckham’s little girl Harper is growing up fast and she already has a penchant for soccer. Fourteen month old Harper is always in the stands watching her brothers play (above with mom and Romeo) and since she started walking, she’s been kicking and throwing the ball around like her big brothers and her daddy. Wouldn’t it be funny if she grew up to be the best player in the family?

NICOLE KIDMAN WILL DO ALMOST ANYTHING FOR A MOVIE, BUT SHE WON’T DO THAT!

#nicolekidman #janetcharlton

“Precious” director Lee Daniels put Nicole Kidman through the wringer while filming “The Paperboy.” She not only had two explicit sex scenes, but a scene where she pees on Zac Efron after he’s bitten by a sting ray. And the whole movie takes place in the steamy Florida swamps in the early 70’s. Daniels says he shocked the actress when he insisted that Nicole would understand her character (the town hussy who has a pen-pal relationship with a convict) better if she did her OWN hair and makeup. To illustrate, he placed her in a room full of women who wrote to men in prison. AND he required that she “jiggle,” so she had to GAIN fifteen pounds! Nicole did as she was told until she got to the part in the script where her character had to use the N-word. She flatly refused. No WAY. Eventually, director Daniels relented.
