We just KNOW you’re going to want to drop everything and dash to Tori Spelling’s “Dazzling Hollywood Estate Sale ” at her Valley home this weekend. (11369 Dona Lisa Drive, Studio City) Ads promise sale items represent “fifteen years of buying and collecting.” But there’s something fishy here. First of all, since when does Tori live in middle class Studio City? And take a look at these photos of the roomsful of items for sale. Doilies everywhere! Plastic plants! Grandma style dishes! Not to mention used cosmetics – and don’t forget that fire extinguisher under the vanity. Granted, there’s an occasional picture of Tori propped up, but we’re not buying the notion of Tori Spelling lounging on white wicker furniture. Either this is someone else’s house, or Tori Spelling’s taste is MUCH worse than we suspected. Candy would be humiliated. Or maybe that’s the idea.

SYLVESTER STALLONE: OVER THE TOP

StallonesG_468x309cut.jpg
Sylvester Stallone is out promoting his aging prizefighter movie Rocky Balboa, and The Daily Mail noted that Sly is getting to look more like his mother every day! Besides having the same plastic surgeon, Jacqueline and Sly have always been big believers in taking advantage of all the anti-aging shots and supplements available. We’re not sure if that’s a good thing. At least Sly’s pretty wife Jennifer knows what her husband will look like in twenty years.

HEATHER LOCKLEAR: HOT AND COLD

heather_locklear.cutjpg
What’s wrong with this picture? Just about everything. Is Heather Locklear having a schizophrenic lapse in taste? She can’t decide if it’s winter or summer. It’s a warm day in Beverly Hills so Heather wore an 80’s retro print halter dress- which she accessorizes with a LONG WOOL SCARF and zebra print bag! (We’re not even going to mention the fact that she seems to have added a few inches to her bustline.) The one redeeming feature, as always, is her cute smile.

PHIL SPECTOR: DO'S AND DON'TS

Spector1
Ever since it was revealed that, if Phil Spector ends up in jail for murder, (and we hope he does) he won’t be able to wear his toupee, we can’t stop thinking about his distinctive hairstyles through the years. We can’t even figure out WHERE the hairpieces begin. So we put together this collage of the music mogul’s hairdos over the decades so you can be the judge. Will the wigmaker responsible for these travesties please stand up!

JOHN TRAVOLTA: COME FLY WITH HIM

travolta.cutjpg
We happen to be huge fans of mid-century style and these were also the golden years of airline travel – when flying was glamorous and comfortable and you got DRESSED UP to fly. And don’t forget those stewardesses in their cute mod designer outfits! Apparently John Travolta doesn’t want to let go of those warm and fuzzy memories either. He is the proud owner of a 1960’s Boeing 707 jet that was used by Qantas in its heyday. John has the plane customized with a huge master suite, childrens room , dining room etc, but he retained all the design elements and colors of the original mod decor! Plus, all his flight attendants wear original 60’s uniforms! Some aviation enthusiasts scoff at John because his plane is a “dinosaur and not fuel efficient.” but we can totally identify. Another interesting fact: John has his “pilot” uniforms, laden with gold braid and buttons, custom designed by Giorgio Armani!

Keanu Reeves
likes to wake up with a good stretch followed by a cigarette. He gets what he wants – along with pumpkin pancakes – for breakfast at La Conversation cafe on Doheny Drive. No fancy designer labels for this actor.

HOW BROOKE SHIELDS AND TOM CRUISE BECAME FRIENDS INDEED

brooke_shields.jpg
AHA! The truth comes out! If you were wondering why Brooke Shields became SO chummy with Tom Cruise after they had that very public tiff over anti-depressants, we’ve got the answer. After Tom’s anti-drug tirade he realized how many women had turned AGAINST him (including Sumner Redstone’s wife) – they sided with Brooke. Rather than lose masses of female fans, Tom appeared on Brooke’s doorstep with an apology. He included her in various social events and Brooke softened up. Tom desperately needed her friendship and Brooke’s publicized appearance at his wedding was a huge deal to Cruise. He persuaded Brooke to attend the wedding by pampering her like a princess with deluxe travel accomodations AND he promised her a role in one of his upcoming movies, possibly The War Magician. Brooke is thrilled – HER career needs a boost too! So they’re BOTH happy with their showbiz “friendship.”

JESSICA SIMPSON: REASON TO CRY

jessica2.cutjpg
NOW we know why Jessica Simpson was in TEARS at the Kennedy Center Honors. She had just found out about Lane Garrison’s tragic auto accident. (One teenage male passenger was killed and two girls were injured.) Lane was like a brother to her – they grew up in the same town and when he had problems at home, he went to live with Jessica’s dad Joe Simpson when he was a teenager. Simpson helped make Lane a star like he did his daughters. And Lane loved being famous. When he went to Ralph’s Saturday night to buy pita chips, two teen girls saw him and got VERY excited. They begged him to come to their high school party to impress their friends. Lane couldn’t resist the flattery. Just how much he had to drink before and during the party will be apparent when his blood test results come back. When Lane wanted to leave, the girls begged the boy who was killed to come along because they were a little afraid of Lane. The joy ride ended abruptly when his SUV crashed into a tree. Acquaintances of Lane are predicting that the blood test will show more than alcohol was in his system. Right now Lane’s in hiding and Jessica is still distraught.

MEAN GIRLS

lindsay-lohan-aacut-01.jpg
An innocent visitor from England (who also happens to be hot looking) told us this amusing story. Recently an LA friend took him to a birthday party at Guy’s. The Brit knew nothing about celebrity karaoke. They had a few drinks and his mate pointed to a group of girls, one of them had her back to them. He said “There’s my friend Lindsay – go get her attention. The English guy strolled up behind “Lindsay,” tapped her on the shoulder and said hello. She turned around and the guy was horrified to realize it was fierce looking Lindsay Lohan. (He said “I had a People magazine cover flash in my mind!”) Lohan gave him a snort and a contemptuous side glance and bolted RIGHT away, leaving her friends slack-jawed. The girlfriends looked the guy up and down like he had just walked out of a high school science class, and one said in a thick valley girl accent “EWWW- YOU’RE WEARING A SWEATER!” The embarrassed stranger shrank back and punched his friend for setting him up. SO high school.

GEORGE CLOONEY: BYE BYE LOVE

maxcut.jpg
George Clooney is mourning the loss of the longest lasting love of his life – his pig Max. George got Max back in the eighties from his live-in girlfriend Kelly Preston. His romance with Kelly was over in a year, but Max was in his life until last week when he died of old age at 18. Max ALWAYS lived with George and had run of the house. Sometimes George’s girlfriends were awakened by snorting in their ear when Max hopped into bed with them. Mark Wahlberg says he stayed overnight at George’s place once and woke up to find Max snuggled beside him. Of all George’s girlfriends, Renee Zellweger was really enchanted with Max – she loved the way Max followed George everywhere. George spoiled Max with a $1500 train set (he loved to watch the trains go around) and thought nothing of spending $25 a pound for chocolate covered pretzels for Max. (Pigs love chocolate and it doesn’t hurt them) Who will George share his bed with now?
