GWEN STEFANI: NO DOUBT RULES!

gwen121306_02cut.jpg
Gwen Stefani is a huge success on her own but there’s no way she’ll turn her back on No Doubt. The hugely popular band has been writing songs and is now laying tracks at an LA recording studio. We’ve been told Gwen finds time in her incredibly busy schedule to be a frequent visitor and contributor. Nobody knows how long it will take to finish this project – Gwen has a spring tour in the works to add to all her other jobs. But Gwen is loyal to her band and she will NOT disappoint!

FARRAH FAWCETT: LET'S HAVE LUNCH

farrah121306_02cut.jpgSure, Farrah Fawcett has been feeling lousy from her cancer treatments, but she says the Enquirer story about her begging “Let Me Die” is all wrong. To prove her point she had Ryan O’Neal take her out to lunch at the very public Cafe Roma in Beverly Hills. She wanted everyone to see that she’s not at death’s door and hoped to have pictures taken. Of course, Ryan still has that TEMPER and in this photo it looks like for the moment he forgot Farrah’s mission and he’s giving the photographer the evil eye and gesturing as if he’s about to stick a fork in him.

BEYONCE: no thanks

dreamR7_191x350cut.jpg
We’re going out on a limb here, but this photo looks to us like it’s time for Beyonce to stand up to her mother and say “Please don’t make any more dresses for me!” Not that her mother isn’t a talented designer – it’s just that Beyonce had graduated to the world of luxury couture and THAT is not whipped up by your mother. Especially for the premier of your first starring movie. This baby blue scallopy confection wrapped up in a big bow that Beyonce wore to the LA premier of Dreamgirls looks like it might have come from a bridal shop in downtown Los Angeles. If mom didn’t make it, she should have vetoed it.

LARRY KING: GOING UP?

For YEARS Larry King has taped his TV show at the CNN building on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood. But if you ask other people who work in the building what Larry’s like, they say they have never encountered him. How is that possible? It was explained that when Larry arrives every day, his “assistants” (usually eager-to-please young women) run ahead of him and shoo everyone OUT of the elevator SO HE CAN RIDE ALONE – both coming and going. Apparently Larry feels he’s above making small talk with strangers in the elevator.

VOTE NOW!

As you know, Eddie Murphy (pictured here as his delicious character in Dreamgirls) split with his girlfriend Melanie “Scary Spice” Brown after she announced she was pregnant with his child. Now he’s demanding a DNA paternity test.

Page 6, Again!

We are ALWAYS thrilled when Page 6 picks up one of our items. This Ving Rhames story is particularly amusing, so we’re not surprised that they liked it too! Thanks, Richard!

JOLIE PITT FAMILY TREE

Maybe the holiday season has actually softened us up – we can’t resist showing you this exceptional photo of the Jolie-Pitt family either reading or picnicking. Usually they’re photographed rushing through an airport so this is a relaxing change. It’s a great family portrait.

SACHA BARON COHEN: SPLIT PERSONALITY

SachaBaronCohenPA_228x395.jpg
The holidays are here and we feel obligated to warn hosts inviting Sacha Baron Cohen to Hanukkah festivities that the Borat star is very particular. Cohen has a lot to celebrate because an LA judge just refused to halt the DVD release of Borat because of the college boys lawsuit against him. Back when Sasha was better known as Ali G, he was invited to a Jewish holiday meal and the day before the dinner, Cohen interrogated the host about the food. The actor needed to establish that the food would be absolutely kosher and he asked many questions including what kind of plates the edibles would be served on. The host admitted a few of the dishes weren’t strictly kosher and Cohen thanked him and chose to eat elsewhere. It’s hard to believe this is the same guy who wears a day-glo thong.

GEORGE CLOONEY: THE BLAME GAME

george_clooney_32.sized.jpg
George Clooney must be awfully disappointed that for the umpteenth time, it has been decided (this time by DNA evidence) that Princess Diana was killed by her own drunken pillpopping driver – or rather, Dodi Fayed’s driver – and NOT by the paparazzi. (Actually, we think machismo killed Diana – Dodi’s macho chauffeur wouldn’t admit he was too impaired to drive.) George LOVED spreading the idea that the press killed Diana – he hoped to turn the Diana-loving public AGAINST the press. (He only likes the press when he has a movie coming out.) He hoped fans would stop buying gossip magazines and visiting gossip websites. And of course, Dodi Fayed’s father Mohammed has spent a fortune trying to prove a conspiracy – he can’t live with the idea that his son contributed to Diana’s death. Let’s hope this latest finding will shut them both up.

EDDIE MURPHY: SPICE GIRL IS NO DREAMGIRL

meleddiecut.jpg
Eddie Murphy learned the hard way that MEN – especially wealthy, successful men- should be in charge of birth control if they don’t want “accidents” to happen. His friends are clucking that Melanie “Scary Spice ” Brown trapped Eddie by deliberately plotting to get herself pregnant. “She knew that having Eddie’s baby would be her ticket to financial security. They were getting along great until Mel told Eddie she was expecting. Eddie was appalled – HE likes to call the shots. The more he thought about, it the madder he got. Melanie hoped he would eventually accept the situation, but he felt she totally deceived him and is taking advantage of him. She’s not the innocent jilted girlfriend she pretends to be. He wants nothing further to do with her. He has his fingers crossed on the slim hope that the baby won’t turn out to be his.”
