DEMI MOORE’S BEAUTY SECRET IS HUMAN GROWTH HORMONES

A certain pharmacist in New York casually remarked to a friend of ours that Demi Moore has been using HGH (Human Growth Hormone) for YEARS. We were fascinated because that WOULD explain her unnaturally youthful and sinewy looks. HGH supposedly turns fat to muscle and turns back the clock as far as skin and hair and energy are concerned. Sylvester Stallone is a huge fan of the product, which is not illegal in this country, but somewhat suspect. Side effects from long-term use have not been established and there could be a price to pay for the youth enhancing shots.

CHELSEA HANDLER HAS THE LAST LAUGH

Perfect timing. Chelsea Handler and her boyfriend Andre Balazs just broke up and according to Deadline Hollywood, she has now signed a 25 million dollar deal with E! to continue her talk show Chelsea Lately, for two more years and develop new shows. Who has time to regret the loss of a boyfriend? This money is particularly astounding because the E! channel is notoriously cheap with their everyday staffers and secondary performers. We remember when we were doing The Gossip Show at E!, it took YEARS to get a $25 raise….

DID MAKS BADMOUTH HIS WAY OFF DANCING WITH THE STARS – OR IS HE TOP DOG?

Is temperamental “Dancing with the Stars” pro Maks Chmerkovskiy’s bad behavior on the show cementing his return next season, or likely to get him voted off for good? Maks (“This is MY show”) and his partner Hope Solo, who placed last on Monday, have battled with each other, but his televised clashes with judges Len Goodman and Carrie Ann Inaba are what everybody’s talking about. Sore loser Maks insulted Len by suggesting its time for him to retire and when Carrie Ann noticed him smirking during her critique, he reacted badly and later in an interview said “F— Carrie Ann.” Maks’ ego, chest baring, and hostility have kept the show lively, and viewers seem to eat it up. It will be interesting to see how he does Tuesday night and IF he returns next season. Maybe it IS his show.

VICTORIA BECKHAM: FROM SPICE GIRL TO CEO

Victoria Beckham made her fashion intentions crystal clear when she agreed to be the featured speaker at the WWD Apparel and Retail CEO Summit Conference. She’s SERIOUS about her fashion lines. As main speaker, she shared her knowledge and experience in the fashion industry with other style experts. And she looked spectacular while doing it. Her black and blue form fitting strapless dress and leather legwarmers with stiletto heels gave her captive audience a lot to look at. And her slim figure after giving birth in July was duly noted.

WHEN JESSICA SIMPSON GIVES UP DRINKING, SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE

Jessica Simpson has given up alcohol for the duration of her pregnancy and it’s NOT EASY because her family loves cocktails. So naturally, she asked everyone around her to give it up too. That includes her fiancee Eric Johnson, who enjoyed drinking vodka with Jessica. Jessica’s father Joe gave up his whiskey and her mother Tina gave up Margaritas – at least when Jessica is around. Eric promised not to drink at all until Jessica can drink again.

PORTIA SAYS ELLEN IS WAY TOO AMBITIOUS – SHE WANTS OPRAH’S CROWN

Ellen DeGeneres is obsessed with the idea of becoming the #1 talk show host now that Oprah is off the air. Ellen’s wife Portia de Rossi, however is not so thrilled with Ellen’s ambition. Besides working on her daily show, Ellen constantly has other projects that take up most of her spare time. She has so many work commitments that Portia feels left out – they can rarely even plan a vacation together. Portia would LOVE it if Ellen would leave the show when her contract is up and semi-retire, but it’s doubtful that Ellen can resist the lure of becoming the new Oprah.

CHRISTINA AGUILERA: WATCH OUT FOR HOLIDAY TEMPTATION!

Christina Aguilera is hanging on tight to her boyfriend Matthew Rutler as they leave a restaurant in Malibu. She’s in a good mood because she winked at the cameraman, but hopefully she will beware of holiday overindulgence. Christina is not looking her best with that extra weight – maybe she’s better off taking a tropical vacation and eating mangoes instead of going to a lot of Hollywood parties and indulging in eggnog and pumpkin pie. (Also, the idea of putting on a swimsuit often kills the appetite.)

JAY-Z IS SO RICH NOW HE FORGOT WHERE HE CAME FROM

Jay-Z abruptly stopped selling his $22 “Occupy Wall Street” t-shirts from his Rocawear clothing line when he was lambasted for not donating any of the proceeds to the Wall Street protesters. His t-shirts, manufactured in Mexico, had the words “Occupy Wall Street” with red graffiti spray altering the slogan to read “Occupy all Streets” and were selling like hotcakes. He was embarrassed when it was pointed out that he was selfishly cashing in on the protest. It’s especially ironic, since Jay-Z’s net worth is said to be $1 billion which puts him in the “1 percent” club that protesters are griping about.

ALI G MIXES UP VETERAN AND VETERINARIAN

For some reason we can’t get enough of Sacha Baron Cohen’s Ali G, and we never saw this hilarious video before. In this segment Ali visits a farm and encounters a veteran who also happens to be a veterinarian, which causes massive confusion. We find the combination of the sly Ali G and earnest Americans irresistibly funny.
