EVA MENDES AND RYAN GOSLING KISS PRIVACY GOODBYE

Eva Mendes,37, must be really upset because photos of her and Ryan Gosling, 30, smooching at Disneyland this weekend are everywhere. Eva has always worked to keep her romances under wraps and out of the tabloids. It was comparatively easy when she was in her 9 year relationship with producer George Gargurevich because they weren’t involved in the Hollywood social scene. They split this summer and Eva was reportedly excited to begin filming “The Place Beyond the Pines” (photo above) with Ryan Gosling because she already had a crush on him. Apparently they clicked. Now Eva is stuck in “celebrity couple” hell. We think Ryan is the lucky one because Eva in not only beautiful but she’s fun, down to earth, and just plain nice.

BILLY CRYSTAL REALLY WANTS TO HOST THE OSCARS

Billy Crystal, pictured above leaving Spago, still hasn’t given up on the idea of hosting the Oscars again this year. After last year’s Anne Hathaway-James Franco disaster, many people campaigned to have Billy return. Since then, Oprah has been under consideration, and recently Eddie Murphy surfaced as a strong possibility. Billy seems to WANT the job more than anyone else, and he never disappoints.
UPDATE: As you now know, Eddie Murphy landed the job. Maybe next year, Billy.

FAMILY VACATION FOR MADONNA AND BRAHIM ZAIBAT

Madonna is bending over backwards to please the family of her young boyfriend Brahim Zaibat,24. She’s determined to win over Brahim’s mother Patricia Vidal, 45, who is eight years younger than Madonna is. Madonna made a huge mistake awhile back when she insisted that Brahim attend Kabbalah meetings with her. Since he and his family are Muslim, he refused, and a problem developed but Madonna got over it. She invited Brahim’s mother and five of his cousins for a week’s vacation at the ultra-posh Hotel Du Cap in the South of France. Suites there start at around three thousand dollars a night. Everything was on Madonna and the two families got to know each other and lived it up like millionaires before Madonna moved on to the Venice Film Festival. Needless to say, she won them over.

AL PACINO AND LUCILA SOLA: 40 YEARS AGE DIFFERENCE IS NO BIG DEAL

There’s no doubt that Al Pacino’s young girlfriend Lucila Sola cares a lot about him – she wore flats to the premier of the movie they did together. Pacino, 71, directed Lucila, along with Jessica Chastain, in Wilde Salome, which was celebrated above, at the Venice Film Festival. Al is busier than ever, having just finished the Phil Spector biography for HBO. Al and Lucila met during filming and have been together for at least six months – she and her daughter are living in his Los Angeles home.

VICTORIA BECKHAM AND HER LITTLE GIRL HARPER FINALLY GO SHOPPING

It takes practice to walk in flats if you’ve been wearing stilettos for years, so Victoria Beckham is getting used to feeling short at The Grove with her kids. Apparently her back problem is improving, but ballet flats are still the prescribed footwear. She took 8 week old Harper to a fancy children’s store for some shopping, then she and Harper and the boys went to a movie. Hopefully Harper behaved and they didn’t get kicked out of the theater.

SEARS HAS COME A LONG WAY, BABY


The Kardashian Kollection hit 400 Sears stores just last week and already everything is marked down to 30% off. All this in spite of the fact that famed photographer Annie Liebowitz was hired by Sears to make sure Kourtney, Khloe, and Kim looked good in their photos wearing the clothes. Sears has come a long way since its catalog lingerie ads in the 1960’s.

Jeff Goldblum is at it again. He seems to have yet another much younger girlfriend. Jeff, 58, and model Lydia Hearst-Shaw, 26, split a few months ago and this new girl he took to lunch could even be younger. “The Fly” star is very hip and noted for his witty conversation, but he’s also noted for changing his mind. According to former sweethearts, he can be hopelessly smitten and attentive one day and coldly disinterested the next. He can turn off his passion like a faucet.

WOMEN’S LIFE IN THE DAYS BEFORE GLORIA STEINEM


Video via: The Daily What

Being married couldn’t have been easy for women in the 50’s and 60’s. These coffee commercials show husbands mercilessly berating their perky and well groomed wives about their coffee making skills. Imagine if they tried to get away with this today…

ANOTHER REALITY SHOW WEDDING: GENE SIMMONS WILL DO ANYTHING FOR RATINGS

Is Gene Simmons trying to out-do the Kardashians in the fame-whore department? We can imagine how the self promoting rocker is envious or perhaps inspired by the Kardashian steamroller of financial success. THAT explains his sudden desire to get married on TV after a lifetime of being adamantly against the institution. Ratings competition changes everything. At the beginning of this season of “Family Jewels” Gene wanted us to believe he and Shannon Tweed were splitting up. Next he proposed on camera and set a wedding date – October 1 at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Are we running out of ideas? (Above, son Nick, 22, Gene, Shannon, and daughter Sophie, 19)
