CHARLIZE THERON AND STUART TOWNSEND: STILL HAPPILY UNMARRIED

charlizecut_05.jpgThe only news that gossip magazines ever seem to write about Charlize Theron is that she is either making wedding plans, or has broken up with her boyfriend Stuart Townsend. And they’re dead WRONG about both! The fact is, publications seem unable to accept the fact that a couple can be perfectly happy together and unmarried. And every time one of the pair goes out without the other does NOT mean they have split up. It means they have LIVES. As of last Thursday, Charlize and Stuart are STILL happy together. They had dinner at Ita-Cho Japanese restaurant on Beverly Blvd. Charlize had a dark blondish brown pony tail and they were both in casual jeans. It’s rumored that the pair bought two penthouses they plan to merge in the new Broadway condo building being developed on Hollywood and Vine.

KEIRA KNIGHTLEY: DIGITAL PERFECTION

PIRATESCUT.jpg
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End is in the final days of post production, but they had a last minute expense. Keira Knightley’s complexion wasn’t up to snuff, so they called in special effects experts to smooth it out. Keira, 22, was said to have had a bad reaction to make-up, and she broke out with acne during filming. Despite the best lighting efforts, the bumps still showed so they were digitally removed in every close-up. Now she looks as beautiful as Johnny Depp.

LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE: ON THE ROAD AGAIN

sunshinecut06_hires.jpg
Last year’s surprise hit comedy Little Miss Sunshine is being turned into a TV series so you haven’t seen the last of the oddball Hoover family. The movie starred Abigail Breslin, Steve Carell, Greg Kinnear, Paul Dano,Toni Collette, and Alan Arkin (Remember Alan won an Oscar for his role.) Much to our surprise, the entire original cast is in secret talks to do the TV version, which is destined for HBO or Showtime. One big problem: Alan Arkin’s character died in the movie. They’d love to have him on board, but haven’t figured out how to bring him back to life. So for now he’s not involved.

CISCO ADLER: NOT EXACTLY A CHICK MAGNET

Not a great week for Cisco Adler. Since he and Mischa Barton split, he hasn’t had a lot of luck with the ladies. That unfortunate nude photo on the internet certainly didn’t help any. First he was given the cold shoulder by Amy Winehouse. It’s 2 AM at Hyde above and he tried to kiss that girl who is shrinking away from him. Maybe it’s the mustache. Against his will, he left without female companionship.

Well, well, look who’s out nightclubbing already! It’s Ashley Hamilton, who swore he was giving up nightclubs for AA meetings. His vow didn’t last long – he must have the same rehab convictions as Lindsay Lohan and Robbie Williams. On this night he was roughhousing with his half-brother Sean Stewart , another rehab graduate, as they left Hyde. Oddly enough, Alana Hamilton Stewart, their mother, was out clubbing with them.

LANCE BASS: WHO'S THAT GUY?

Here’s a mini-mystery: Lance Bass was seen driving in Beverly Hills toward Mr Chow and about a block away our photographer noticed an older guy get OUT of Lance’s car and WALK toward the restaurant. Lance and the mystery man – who is believed to be billionaire Hollywood mogul David Geffen – arrived separately but sat down TOGETHER at a table inside Mr Chow. They had pleasant dinner together and then left at different times. WHY all the subterfuge? (Was David afraid Keanu Reeves would be jealous? Just JOKING!) Was Geffen inviting Lance to join the Velvet Mafia? Any guesses?

GENE SIMMONS AND HIS ENTREPRENEURIAL SON

We think Nick Simmons is a force to be reckoned with. (that’s Nick and his father leaving Mako restaurant in Beverly Hills last night) Nick is KISS rocker Gene Simmons’ seventeen year old son, who happens to have inherited a lot of his father’s best and worst traits. You can catch the whole family on A&E’s Family Jewels reality show. Nick appears to be smart like his dad, a fast talker, and a musician as well as a cartoonist. He got his father’s knack for money-making, but apparently not daddy’s tongue. However, he IS better looking, thanks to actress mom Shannon Tweed.

MATTHEW McCONAUGHEY: OH SO CASUAL

Doesn’t Ago have a dress code of some kind? If we showed up dressed like this we might not get in, but Matthew McConaughey’s funky sandals don’t affect his warm reception. He’s dressed more appropriately for a beach bar, but nobody wants to tell a movie star to go home and change.

JOHNNY DEPP AND WINONA RYDER: NOT FOREVER, AFTER ALL

Since we NEVER get tired of looking at Johnny Depp we decided to share this vintage photo of Johnny and his then-girlfriend Winona Ryder at The Golden Globes around 1991. They had just costarred in Edward Scissorhands and were THE hot couple at that time. It was a serious romance – at least for Johnny. That’s when Depp got his “Winona Forever” tattoo, that was later altered to “Wino Forever.” We wonder if Winona ever regrets breaking Johnny’s heart.
