SECOND THOUGHTS?

kate%20meg
Is Kate Hudson having a Meg Ryan experience? Kate was conspicuously absent from the London premier of You, Me, and Dupree. Since she rarely misses a chance to promote her films, her absence got everybody wondering if she was reluctant to be photographed with her costar Owen Wilson. Rumors have been circulating that Owen was the reason she split with her husband, so it’s an awkward situation. She chose to stay home and spend time with her son Ryder and estranged husband Chris Robinson. Maybe she’s starting to realize that her adorable leading man isn’t great boyfriend material – just as Meg Ryan changed her mind about romancing the leading man who broke up her marriage, Russell Crowe. It’s never too late to change one’s mind.

WHO'S THAT MAN?

Bruce Willis brought his kids along with a very good looking mystery man, to have dinner at Koi recently. At one point Bruce walked up to the bar and a pretty woman approached and said “I don’t mean to bother you… ” Bruce put on his flirty face and encouraged her to go on – “No problem.” he grinned. The woman continued “Can you tell me who IS that handsome man you’re with?” Bruce’s face darkened and he frowned and walked away. His mood change didn’t help the waiter- that night Bruce left an uncharacteristically skimpy tip.

A DATE WITH ANDY

The National Enquirer is coming out with a hilarious story about a guy who calls himself John Arnold, who PICKED UP loony Andy Dick in a Hollywood nightclub. Arnold described Andy as “snorting cocaine like a vacuum cleaner” – yet they ended up in a Japanese restaurant together. John, trying to make the best of this odd date, was appalled when Andy “grabbed the waiter by the crotch and began kissing him on the face- the waiter fought off his advances.” Amazingly, Arnold nonetheless agreed to give Andy a ride home. On the way home Andy “saw a patrol car and pulled out a baggy of coke and tried to snort the entire contents at once.” When Arnold protested, Andy kicked and broke his windshield and punched him in the face before he took off running down the street. The hapless “date” reported the incident to the police – and hopefully to his own psychotherapist.

BUTT ENHANCEMENT

It’s not fun being accused of having a fake bottom! Jessica Simpson suffered that indignity when she was flaunting her backside in daisy dukes in The Dukes of Hazzard. Ricky Martin was also accused of enhancing his backside by adding padding to his jeans, when he was on tour a few years ago. (He immediately hit the gym and built up an impressive genuine butt. ) Latest to be accused is Victoria Beckham whose apparently curvy backside is featured in fragrance ads with her husband David. Brits claim it looks like Jennifer Lopez’s lush bottom has been electronically grafted onto Victoria’s svelte body. Do you agree?

NOW IT'S HIS TURN

Looks like Brody Jenner learned a thing or two from his ambitious girlfriend Kristin Cavallari. Remember a few months back, Brody agreed to pretend they had split up so Kristin could pursue Nick Lachey and make herself more famous. Being photographed with Nick put Kristin on the gossip map and made her a tabloid favorite. Kristin never really dated Nick, she just made sure she was photographed with him and pretended they had a romance. Brody’s fame quotient could use a boost, so now he and Kristin are pretending to be split up again, and HE is getting himself photographed with photo darlings like Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton. SOOOO Hollywood….

MAKE ME LAUGH

Is David Spade quietly juggling yet ANOTHER bereft divorcee? He likes to step in and console vulnerable women who’ve suddenly become single. Clever Spade makes em laugh – and we all know that’s the best medicine! It worked for Heather Locklear, didn’t it? What Heather doesn’t know is that Dave seems to have turned his attention to the newly vulnerable Carmen Electra. Apparently Dave Navarro wasn’t that funny. Last week Dave and Carmen were seen having an animated conversation, driving together near the Beverly Center in his black Mercedes. The pocket size romeo was also seen with an unidentified woman fitting Carmen’s description, ducking out of one of his favorite hangouts – the Grove movie theater. Last night at the Teen Choice Awards they sat together and “looked absolutely giddy.”
Need we say more?

LOSE CONTROL

We’re mystified by the Teen Choice Awards. If Kevin Federline is so confident about his singing, why did he have another guy – his DJ- onstage singing louder and better than he was? And wasn’t K-Fed a DANCER before he got married? So why did he simply walk around the stage while his hired dancer – above- busted all the moves?

HIS TRUE LOVE

James Woods didn’t waste any time dumping his 39 years younger girlfriend Ashley Madison, when she revealed her “insensitive” nature at Jimmy’s brother’s funeral. Of course, Ashley couldn’t hold a candle to Jimmy’s true love – his Cairn Terrier named Angel. (Insiders joke that the actor treats Angel better than he does his girlfriends). Angel and her master go everywhere together – she comes to work with Jimmy on the set of his new series Shark, every day. Her leash is hooked on Woods’s chair and she patiently awaits his return. They always have lunch together. Angel, a lookalike for Toto from the Wizard of Oz, is very popular on the set – she never lacks for attention.

HER LIPS ARE MOVING

Ashlee Simpson has LOST her title as Hollywood’s lip -synch queen to Paris Hilton. Paris hosted a record launch party Friday at Privilege and she amazed her audience by having the colossal nerve to mouth the words to her music! The only real words out of her mouth made up her opening comment “You’re all bitches!” She lip synched half a dozen songs from her album and the crowd grew increasingly restless. Many were mocking her behind her back. Her album got decent reviews, but insiders say there will never be a tour or personal appearances – Paris’s voice is too wispy and requires monumental enhancement.

IN HAPPIER TIMES

image009.jpg
We’re dying to find out what on earth Steven Spielberg DID – or didn’t do – to get Oprah’s goat. And did Tom Cruise have anything to do with it? The two moguls have been best pals for years – every since Spielberg gave Oprah her big acting break in The Color Purple. Nowadays there’s such bad blood between them that you won’t even catch them in the same room together and Oprah will NOT talk about it. Many of Oprah’s celebrity pals showed up for the premier of her play The Color Purple. Not Steven. Recently Spielberg was honored at the Chicago Film Festival with a Lifetime Achievement Award and many stars flew in from LA, but Oprah , who lives in Chicago, couldn’t be bothered. She refused to attend or participate – fueling rumors about this secret feud.
