HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

Our gal thought all of her wishes came true when she married the man of her dreams – he was rich, famous, and sexy, with a red hot career.  Things were great for a while – until fate took an unexpected turn.  Although he IS still famous, he’s no longer rich or sexy, and his career is a thing of the past.  In public our gal is standing by her man while he goes through some hard times, but privately she has already moved on and is secretly dating one of his associates.  She’s done her best to keep this hush- hush,  but it’s only a matter of time before her current marriage is over and she moves on to greener pastures.

GEORGE SANTOS IS PLANNING A PRISON BLOG

Just because he’s now incarcerated and prohibited from using technology, ( like cellphones) don’t think for a minute that we’ve heard the last from disgraced former Congressman George Santos.  Although we don’t condone his actions ,we can’t help but admit to being amused by his theatrics – and he’s not done trying to grab the spotlight – even from behind bars.  According to our source, George plans on keeping everyone abreast of his life in prison with a weekly blog.  Since he can’t post anything online himself, he’s made arrangements to have a friend on the outside do it for him. George is planning weekly telephone chats with his buddy who will then transcribe what he says and post it to the blog.  The details are still being worked out since George has only been in custody for days, but rest assured it will be up and running once George is settled in to his new home.

SYDNEY SWEENEY HAS POPSTAR ASPIRATIONS

Sydney Sweeney seems to be everywhere these days and now she wants to be on your playlist.  Sydney is playing a country singer in the upcoming film, Americana, and according to my source she wants to add pop star to her resume.  Although Sydney has been tapped to sing some of the vocals in the film, she’s eager to crossover into pop music (think Jennifer Lopez) and has been working with a vocal coach to make her dream a reality.

ANDY COHEN’S CURRENT OBSESSION: MEGHAN MARKLE

It’s no secret that Andy Cohen is always on the hunt for fabulous housewives to join his Bravo franchise,  but now he’s set his sights on the one who would easily be the crown jewel for the entire network – Meghan Markle!  As we already revealed, Meghan’s on the hunt for a new TV deal now that her $100 million contract with Netflix wasn’t renewed, and while Andy is well aware it’s highly unlikely the former Royal would become a Housewife, he is brainstorming for a way to develop a show all around her. Bravo being Bravo, the show would most likely involve drama (and let’s face it Meg has plenty) so it’s just a matter of how many of her family secrets she’s willing to share…

OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS FOR WHITE LOTUS CHARACTERS

Spinoffs are nothing new to Hollywood, so it shouldn’t come as a huge surprise that The White Lotus might be getting one of its own. Each season the show introduces new characters vacationing at a different White Lotus resort and while creator Mike White plans to continue with that successful concept, he feels he’s created so many great characters that it might be a good idea to spin them off with their own show. Keep in mind – nothing has been decided yet, but our inside source ( who had some very accurate White Lotus scoops) is now telling us that Mike is toying with the idea of creating a show based on last season’s characters, the Ratliff family.   If Mike can get Patrick Schwarzenegger, Parker Posey, Jason Isaacs, Sarah Catherine Hook, and Sam Nivola to return to their original roles as family members, the show will likely be pitched ( and sold) to HBO MAX.

HAILEY IS WORRIED ABOUT JUSTIN BIEBER’S FUTURE

Yikes!  Hailey Bieber glimpsed into the future and didn’t like what she saw.  Hanging out with girlfriends, Hailey and her friends used an app that shows how someone will AGE, and she uploaded a photo of her and her husband, Justin.  Well ,the good news is according to the app, Hailey ends up aging gracefully,keeping her model good looks. The not- so- good news is that Hailey was distressed when the app predicted how Justin ends up looking in 30 years – bald, wrinkled, and his numerous tattoos aren’t doing him any favors.  Although it was only a prediction, my source says that Hailey is still bothered by the prediction, and is urging Justin to do whatever he can now to minimize the aging process.

KATIE HOLMES WANTS A RETURN TO THE FASHION BIZ

If at first you don’t succeed, try try again and that’s exactly what Katie Holmes is doing. Years ago, Katie tried her hand at designing a line of clothes.  Her label, Holmes & Yang was sold at high end stores like Barney’s New York and did fairly well,  but a rumored falling out with her stylist partner, Jeanne Yang ended the collaboration.  Fast forward to current times,  and now that Katie’s daughter Suri is off to college, Katie wants to return to her designing passion, but this time WITHOUT a partner. My source says Katie is sourcing fabrics and as expected the line will be a reflection of Katie’s own laid back yet sophisticated style. (Above, Katie is one her way to art class)

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were in the news when it was announced that their staggering $100 million production deal with Netflix wasn’t getting renewed,  but we can tell you this… don’t start shedding any tears for the former royals.  Behind very closed doors, Meg and Harry are already in top secret talks with Hulu to pick up where Netflix left off.  Although it was somewhat surprising that Netflix was nixing the deal, Harry and Meghan started shopping their services around just as soon as news of the cancellation hit the news.

 

Speaking of cancellations, we already dished about Stephen Colbert and The Late Show  getting nixed, but here’s the latest:  Our inside source reveals that Stephen plans on tormenting both Donald Trump and CBS on a nightly basis,  and he confided to an associate that he’s prepared to SUE them to high heaven if they try to censor him in any way during this last season! This is going to wind up being Trump’s biggest nightmare since Stephen now has nothing to lose.  He’s boasting to pals that he will make fun of Trump NONSTOP until the show is finished.

 

And speaking of Donald Trump, we now know (but aren’t at all surprised) that he’s named numerous times in the Jeffrey Epstein files, and that COULD be why he suddenly decided not to release them and started claiming they’re fake news.  We just heard that Donald’s friend turned foe, Elon Musk, is gloating to pals that he was RIGHT when he told everyone Trump was in the files. Remember, he posted the same thing on X weeks ago. Now Elon is planning to take out ads and billboards across the country touting that he was right all along.  Again, the feud between these two silly boys is FAR from over.

 

Hulk Hogan made the news for the saddest possible reason, passing away unexpectedly at 71-years-old in Clearwater, Florida.  We know this.  Hulk had no reason to believe he was close to death as he was secretly planning his big movie comeback (he was up for two movie roles) and was  even negotiating a deal about getting back in the ring later this year. To say his death was a shock to his friends, family and business associates, is an understatement.

 

Another shocking celebrity passing was Ozzy Osbourne, 76, who  passed away just two weeks after his final Black Sabbath concert.  We just heard that his widow, Sharon, was quietly working on a documentary about Ozzy’s colorful life and career as well as his more recent health struggles.  The project is far from finished and now grief stricken Sharon isn’t sure if she wants to continue with it.  We hear her children are encouraging her to finish the project as a way to honor Ozzy.

 

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia DeRossi made news when they revealed their move to the U.K. was all but permanent.  Here’s what we know.  The couple didn’t reveal that although they might be taking an extended break from the US, they aren’t planning to spend all of their time in the U.K.  We just heard that they’re quietly looking at compounds in Portia’s native Australia and plan to spend half the year Down Under and the other half in the U.K. – at least until the 2028 presidential election.

 

Meryl Streep made the news when photos of her on the set of the The Devil Wears Prada sequel appeared online and she looks practically the same as she did when the original movie came out in 2006.  Here’s what we know.  Meryl wanted to look her absolute best before production began, so she secretly underwent a few cosmetic procedures (we were told off the record a face and neck lift, but again this is speculation).  We heard Meryl was on the fence about having surgery or just aging gracefully, but decided to have some work done once the long speculated sequel was finally scheduled to go into production since she does play a major fashionista and needs to look her absolute best.

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

This very married blonde socialite celebrity is obsessed with her image.  She previously fell out of grace for some missteps, but somehow managed to avoid getting cancelled and regained her social standing.  Her nice girl image would be destroyed if word got out that she is cheating on her wealthy but bland husband,  and having a discreet affair with the former boyfriend of one her closest celebrity girlfriends.  The girlfriend, who’s equally as rich and famous, would be out for REVENGE if she found out, since she has yet to get over the  sexy boyfriend – she still refers to him as the “one who got away.”

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

Lately she is popping up on every red carpet, magazine cover and important event – she even has landed some major brand campaigns.  Barely a few years ago, she was a very exclusive commodity for billionaires in Dubai, Saudi Arabia, and other oil rich countries. A former billionaire client fell madly in love with her and paid her a fortune to quit the business and be his secret girlfriend.  He introduced her to her current management team and picked up the tab for everything she needed to become famous. She’s well on her way to becoming a household name, and has suddenly forgotten about her unwritten deal with the former client.  He now feels he was USED and is threatening to reveal her secret unless she resumes sleeping with him.
