NICOLE RICHIE WANTS TOP DOLLAR FOR WEDDING PHOTOS AND PARIS HILTON WOULDN’T UP THE STAKES

Nicole Richie was juggling the invitation list to her wedding until the last minute because she wanted to sell the photo rights for top dollar. Big celebrities bring more money. Nicole’s people were pitting the weeklies against each other to get the best offer. (Keep in mind she took a paparazzi to court recently to keep him away from her family.) When Kim Kardashian and Christina Aguilera both couldn’t attend, the photo price went DOWN, but Nicole still didn’t weaken and invite her frenemy Paris Hilton. Apparently Paris wouldn’t have upped the value of wedding photos. Instead Nicole arranged to have an elephant at the event.

“BLACK SWAN” AND “SHOWGIRLS” HAVE MORE THAN A LITTLE IN COMMON

Showgirls | Black Swan Trailer MASH UP from Jeffrey McHale on Vimeo.

For those of you who forked over your hard earned money to see “Black Swan” this weekend – and certainly, it WAS a better choice than “The Tourist” – here is a revealing and amusing mashup of the Black Swan trailer and that old favorite “Showgirls.” (It combines the audio of the Swan trailer and visuals from Showgirls.) One might assume “Black Swan” director Darren Arononfsky was a fan of Elizabeth Berkley’s 1995 potbboiler.

Willow Smith continues to grow up faster than any other kid in show business. Now the nine year old is following in Cher’s footsteps and flaunting a wig! And it’s a Justin Bieber inspired hairpiece, at that! Willow was photographed with Katy Perry at the Z100 Jingle Ball in New York. How DOES this child find time for homework?

LARA FLYNN BOYLE AND DERMOT MULRONEY TOGETHER AGAIN AFTER 18 YEARS

Lara Flynn Boyle is only 40 but she has certainly changed a lot since she filmed “Where The Day Takes You” with Dermot Mulroney in 1992. She played a teenage runaway in the movie, which was featured at an IFTA screening in Santa Monica. Dermot and Lara reunited after 18 years and while Dermot has a few grey hairs and lines, Lara has definitely changed the most. She still has that enviable slim figure, but her lips and cheeks seem to have puffed up.

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER’S SON PATRICK IS A BUDDING ICON

Arnold Schwarzenegger and his son Patrick, 17, and several other family members went to a farmer’s market near Pacific Palisades. Patrick plays basketball and football at his high school where he’s a very popular fellow. He and a buddy hosted a wild house party in November and the cops broke it up and nabbed a few kids for underage drinking, but not Patrick. Not only is Patrick popular with his classmates, but ever since a shirtless photo of him circulated on the internet, he’s become an icon on gay websites.

IT’S A BIRD, IT’S A PLANE, IT’S A CASKET!

Here’s a gift for the person who has everything- a custom carved coffin in the shape of anything you desire. A man named Paa Joe of Ghana, Africa, has gained notoriety producing an amazing collection of custom coffins – so much that now his work is featured in the Jack Bell Gallery in London. Joe will carve a coffin in the shape of a bird, a plane, a camera, even a car – whatever model you desire.

NICOLE RICHIE SAYS IT WILL BE A SMALL WEDDING – IN A BIG HOUSE

Nicole Richie always said that if and when she got married to Joel Madden she would do it at her adopted father Lionel Richie’s Beverly Hills house. In fact, she still spends a lot of her spare time at daddy’s place. This photo reveals that is would, indeed, be difficult to find a more beautiful place to take one’s vows. We’re particularly amused that Nicole chose not to invite her sometime friend Paris Hilton to the wedding this weekend.

HOWARD STERN DOESN’T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW HE GOT A 100 MILLION DOLLAR SALARY CUT

We were a bit turned off by Howard Stern’s tirade on his Sirius radio show because someone had leaked that he had taken a pay cut. Apparently he lambasted the deal-makers at Sirius. (We heard this second hand because we don’t subscribe to Sirius.) Anyway, Howard was apoplectic at the idea of people thinking he accepted LESS than his contract five years ago (before the recession) for 500 million dollars. Analysts at The Hollywood Reporter say Howard with take home the same paycheck but lose the stock portion of his compensation, resulting in a salary of about 400 million for the next five years. Of course he might work less than his current four days a week – sure to upset his fans. Somehow we liked the OLD Howard better – when we could afford to listen to him and his income hadn’t moved into the stratosphere.

Princess Caroline of Monaco looks stern as she watches her daughter Charlotte Casiraghi compete in the Gucci Masters equestrian competition in Paris. It so happens that Gucci started out many years ago as a riding apparel company. Charlotte finished in 5th place. It’s amazing what Grace Kelly’s genes did to improve the first family of Monaco.

WHO IS RUMER WILLIS FOOLING WITH THAT FAKE HAIR

We’ve seen some fake looking extensions around this town but Rumer Willis must have gone to a cut-rate technician in the valley. Poor girl. She might be advised to ask the Kardashian sisters where they get their hair extensions because at least they match.
