We’ve always thought of designer John Galliano as the Salvador Dali of the fashion world. His own look is never disappointing – he’s pictured above having a smoke outside a building in Soho – he graciously posed for a fan. He’s still on top – enjoying dazzling success designing for Dior and his own Galliano line. Here’s a sample from his “Ottoman Empire” menswear collection.
Mel Gibson must be scratching his head, wondering how Charlie Sheen can be nude and screaming the “N” word and get away with it all. Mel’s head cleared up enough for him to contribute 9.6 million tax free dollars to his own Holy Family catholic church in Malibu. The tiny church on Mel’s property has a congregation of only 100 people and it’s already worth 60 million. Is he stashing money so Oksana can’t get her hands on it? This brings to mind the need for religious organizations to be TAXED and have financial transparency just like everyone else. Scientologists and Hasidics have bought up half of Hollywood and pay no property taxes! Now is the time to change this archaic law. Meg Whitman, are you listening?

Charlie Sheen’s porn star consort, Capri Anderson (who swears she is NOT a hooker) wants her $12,000 and she wants it NOW! That’s the figure Charlie agreed to pay her for sex back in his hotel room. When they entered his room she asked for the money in advance and that’s when he couldn’t find his wallet and went berserk, accusing her of stealing it. (His assistant down the hall had the wallet.) She locked herself in the bathroom and the cops hauled Charlie away BEFORE she got her money and she’s MAD. She’s threatening to go to Colorado Monday where Charlie is on probation for domestic violence and talk to the DA if Charlie doesn’t pay up fast. She’s also shopping her story around to the highest bidder. Charlie’s watch (valued at $100,000 to $170,000) is still not accounted for. If Capri doesn’t get her $12,000 this weekend Charlie might actually be in trouble.
Women of all ages in Hollywood are shaking their heads over the hook-up of Jane Fonda and Richard Perry. That’s because practically every reasonably attractive young woman in this town has been hit on by the record producer and knows he is a MAJOR ladies man. Since the drug fueled seventies, Richard has seldom been seen without a young model or actress on his arm. One model told us “He’s slept with as many women as Warren Beatty and he’s not even good looking!” Since he’s no beauty, and he’s not known for his generosity, you may wonder what Jane sees in him. Simple. He likes to dance. Jane says they dance together every night and now she’s taking swing dance lessons to keep up with him.

We love Mad Man’s Christina Hendricks, but she looks a thousand times better in her classic vintage fashions than in this modern sportswear. She’s dressed for her currently filming movie “Drive” in skinny jeans, a hoody, and flip flops. We like to see her in cocktail dresses.
Nick Cannon can finally celebrate Mariah Carey’s pregnancy publicly. They’ve been struggling to keep it a secret as long as possible because Mariah is superstitious and already had a miscarriage. According to a friend “Nick is like a girl – he wanted Mariah to have a baby right after they got married. He likes kids and feels like this cements their marriage.” The happy couple is deliberately vague about the delivery date – “sometime in the Spring.”
No Wonder Paula Abdul has had a little smirk on her face lately. It looks like her new CBS series “Live to Dance” will be direct competition for her alma mater “American Idol” on Wednesdays and Tuesdays starting in January. It will be interesting to see what kind of audience the new highly publicized judges Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler will attract to the Fox show which has been losing viewers. Meanwhile, Paula’s dance show upped the ante by offering the winner a $500,000 jackpot.
Good news for Guns N’ Roses/Velvet Revolver musician Slash. He filed for divorce from his wife of 9 years, Perla Ferrar, on August 30. (They have two sons – London, 8, and Cash, 6.) Slash (real name Saul Hudson) immediately took a six month lease on a West Hollywood condo for himself. He had barely moved in when he and Perla got back together and he was out by October 1. For now the divorce is on hold and the condo is empty.
We never would have guessed that Twilight’s sexy vampire Cam Gigandet would enjoy being a dad as much as he seems to. He took his girlfriend Dominique Geisendorff and their daughter Everleigh to Mr Bones Pumpkin Patch and delighted in selecting a big fat Halloween pumpkin. He has several movies coming out, including “Burlesque.”
