YOU LOOKIN' AT ME?

dickinson_inside2.jpg
Innocent bystanders in Starbucks in Beverly Hills couldn’t HELP but notice Janice Dickinson was in the house because she’s SO loud on her cellphone. Even though she was very casually dressed in Ed Hardy sweats, Ugg boots, no makeup, and tousled hair, Janice just HAD to have all eyes upon her. She loudly proclaimed into the phone “Darling, I told you, I AM the first Supermodel!” ( We always wonder what Twiggy thinks when she hears Janice makes that claim. Of course she does get the last laugh – Twiggy replaced Janice on America’s Top Model. ) Janice looked around to see if she was being noticed, and continued with her top volume self – promoting conversation about the fact that she’s now filming the SECOND season of her own reality series The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency. Now EVERYBODY knows.

CLOSE CALL

rodriguez_1.jpg
ANOTHER Yankee with airplane problems! Today third baseman Alex Rodriguez was in a private plane that didn’t stop soon enough and over -ran the runway at Burbank airport, landing with a thump in a sand pit, designed for the purpose of stopping runaway planes. The two crew members and five passengers had an abrupt scare but it ended quickly. It took nearly two hours of investigation before the passengers were allowed to deplane from the sand pit that stopped the plane. A-Rod, considered one of the most valuable Yankees, downplayed the incident, insisting it was no big deal.

In the Family

This famous talk show host doesn’t SEEM like a player, but there’s more to him than meets the eye. He appears to be a happily married man, but he does an inordinate amount of jewelry shopping at Barneys New York. And it’s not all for his wife. He treats his wife to pricey gifts on special occasions, but even more frequently picks up expensive trinkets for a younger relative of his wife. The younger girl doesn’t hesitate to return the jewelry for store credit – she’d rather pick out some designer clothes. Sometimes she even uses the talk show host’s credit card. His wife would be SHOCKED to learn how much money he’s secretly lavishing on this pretty young member of her own family!

ONE AND ONLY

nat_and_gaelgarciabernacut9.jpg
Natalie Portman is one smart cookie when it comes to keeping her love life under wraps. She makes sure that she’s seen in public with various guys and protests being photographed with them. Naturally people assume these are romances. Natalie was photographed in New York with Jake Gyllenhaal on what LOOKED like a date, but actually they’re just friends. This week she was “reluctantly” photographed in the UK with a British billionaire Nat Rothschild, and the papers there made a big deal out of her “new boyfriend.” But she didn’t fool us. We know she’s still crazy about cute Mexican actor Gael Garcia Bernal, and he’s quietly been her REAL and ONLY boyfriend for quite awhile. Gael speaks four languages, so he’s quite a good match for the Harvard educated Portman.

ALL IN THE FAMILY

griffith-flockhart.jpg
According to a coworker on the Brothers & Sisters set, the feud between Calista Flockhart and Rachel Griffiths is still simmering. Ally McBeal star Calista considers herself to be the star of the show. Rachel figures since she’s also a movie star, she is top dog. “Calista thinks nothing of demanding that a scene full of people be reshot to feature her GOOD side instead of her bad side. And Calista is ALWAYS yakking on her cell phone- that’s frowned upon on he set.” It’s one-upmanship. To get even, “Rachel is a pain in the ass because she’s always the LAST one on the set when the director is ready to start a scene (the biggest star is traditionally last to be called) and she keeps EVERYONE waiting.” Rachel might also be a bit peeved because she’s six years YOUNGER than Calista and plays her OLDER sister.

Out of commission

images752753_MarciaCross.jpg
Desperate Housewives writers are scrambling to come up with creative ideas for Marcia Cross‘s uptight character Bree. Marcia, 44, recently learned she and her husband Tom Mahoney are expecting twins. Her doctor REALLY dropped a bombshell when he informed Marcia that since the pregnancy is somewhat risky, she will have to stay IN BED for the last three months. So writers are brainstorming to figure out Bree’s story line – will she go on a long “vacation,” to prison, or she might get trapped on a deserted island. The writers would like to have Bree at least calling in periodically on the show to keep her character involved.

Chris sent is this latest photo that we decided to share with you. You can see more at www.MadonnaLookAlike.com.

REVERSAL OF FORTUNE

2688556brandon.jpg
We heard rumors that when billionaire oil mogul Marvin Davis died, he left his family in financial ruin and now we’re starting to see proof. The family matriarch Barbara Davis sold her mansion, The Knoll, in Beverly Hills and she’s now living in a rental in Coldwater Canyon. Her daughter Nancy – Brandon Davis‘s mother- was also forced to sell her Bel Air home and she downsized.
Brandon doesn’t drive and he no longer has limos every night – he has to depend on rides from Paris Hilton, with whom he’s living. What’s more, Brandon was seen flying COACH to Las Vegas on Southwest recently. Brandon and his brother Jason (shown above in happier times) have had trouble getting into the hot LA club Hyde but they finally wangled their way in last week. How embarrassing – when Jason tried to use his credit card to pay the $80.00 bar tab, it was DECLINED!

CAN I HELP YOU?

j.jpg
Business nearly came to a standstill at Staples in Studio City when Natasha “Species” Henstridge strolled in. The classicly beautiful blonde actress was wearing a modest sweater, slacks and boots but she proved to be an instant man magnet. Another shopper complained ” Forget about finding a guy to wait on you in that store – suddenly they were ALL helping Natasha. She bought a stack of paper, two rolls of tape, and some pens and she had FIVE salesmen hovering all around her, ogling her from every angle. I wanted to buy a printer but I couldn’t get any help until she left.”
