MARILYN MANSON BANNED FROM CHURCH
Marilyn Manson attended the opening of an art exhibition of his watercolor paintings in Cologne, Germany and he took a tour of the city during the day. Imagine his surprise when he was NOT allowed to tour an historic cathedral there. Cathedral staffers REFUSED to let him enter with other tourists. Was it because of his satanic views? Because of his album called “Antichrist Superstar?” Because his art features Adolph Hitler as a transsexual? None of the above. Manson says he doesn’t think they recognized him at all – they just wouldn’t let him in BECAUSE HE WAS WEARING LIPSTICK!
Jason (The Transporter) Statham showed up at the Pink Taco opening in Century City with a cute female companion. We like him better when he shaves his head, but he’s still hot. Partygoers Jessica Alba and Cash Warren, Jake Hoffman, Kevin Connelly, Kimberly and Sean Stewart, etc enjoyed the open bar, but everybody was looking for something spicy to nibble on. Either the food was gone very early or there wasn’t any, so when the fire marshals arrived many people left in search of sustenance.
Looks like Cameron Diaz will rue the day she fell under the spell of magician Criss Angel. Cameron met Angel in Las Vegas where he was performing and they spent some documented time together. Little did Cameron suspect there was a private eye watching every move they made, and that he had been hired by Angel’s suspicious wife back on Long Island, New York! Criss, whose real name is Chris Sarantakos, kept his wife a “secret” after he hit it big with his TV show Mindfreak and moved to Las Vegas. The angry wife Joanne plans to subpoena Cameron to testify in divorce court.
Here’s a twist. Courteney Cox’s husband David Arquette loves to shop and SHE doesn’t! David never gets tired of exploring vintage stores, collectible shops, clothing stores, even upscale designer shops in Beverly Hills. And David gets a kick out of acting like a personal shopper for his wife. He buys her a lot of clothing and accessories and she almost always likes them, in spite of his occasionally flamboyant taste. Recently he REALLY surprised her with a simple classic Chanel handbag. It’s black quilted lambskin with a gold chain handle and cost $2,150.00. Very Nancy Reagan.
We’re hearing that the reason Lindsay Lohan is being so cooperative about extending her rehab treatment is because she no longer has access to her money! So if she wanted to escape or buy drugs she can’t do it. Supposedly she was complaining to friends that she stays in touch with, that her assets are temporarily frozen. She can’t touch her savings or checking accounts or use credit cards. We don’t know if a judge or her family could do that, but she is under 21. If it’s true, it might be the best thing that ever happened to her.
How about an Emmy nomination for Larry King? We think he deserves one for not falling off his chair when Paris Hilton told him she didn’t do drugs and has never tried them. Such a blatant lie would have caused most interviewers to gasp involuntarily or at least laugh out loud. But our Mr King proceeded without a hiccup – he never challenged her claim or lost his composure!
