Nobody wants to say anything to his face, but coworkers just can’t stop gossiping about this actor behind his back. This drop-dead handsome guy starred in a hit series just a few years ago and he’s recently finished a new pilot. But he showed up on the set looking “alarmingly thin! ” Startled coworkers describe him as a “male lollipop” and compare his physique to Calista Flockhart. Has anorexia or bulemia spread to the male side of Hollywood? The once gorgeous actor is also uncharacteristically irritable. The TV pilot’s famous director didn’t complain because he’s super skinny himself!
The feud between Tori Spelling and her mother Candy is not likely to burn out until Tori’s faux reality show So Notorious is history. Tori’s TV mom (called Kiki and played to a T by Loni Anderson,) is incredibly vain and self – centered and prone to making comments like “Tori, Life isn’t all about YOU.” Besides that, Kiki is an oversexed tramp who makes passes at Tori’s boyfriends. Oddly enough, none of those awful traits bothered Candy as much as a reference in the script that greedy Kiki was in the habit of selling gift-bag freebies on eBay. THAT was the last straw. No matter how often Tori insists that Kiki is just a comic character on the show and not based on fact, Candy is still steaming.
Kathy Griffin is pulling the wool over our eyes in the nicest possible way. Kathy, a self confessed reality show junkie, introduced some totally UNREAL elements to her show “My Life on the D-List.” Last September Kathy filed for divorce from her “soulmate” of over four years Matthew Moline. The divorce was never finalized and Kathy claimed they were working things out. But in actuality, things DIDN’T work out, and Matthew moved into his own place last year. For this season’s tapings Matt always arrived early in the morning before the cameras, and PRETENDED to be still living in Kathy’s hillside mansion. The marriage is OVER although Kathy and Matt are still good friends. When will she admit her little subterfuge?
Here’s a little known fact: Did you ever notice that easygoing Brokeback Mountain stud Heath Ledger – who seems so perfect- has a speech impediment? That’s right. When the Oscar nominated Aussie actor is under pressure he starts to stutter. If he’s excited or nervous it becomes even more noticeable. He’s learned to cope with it. People who’ve worked with him say that while he’s filming movies, he often has to repeat his lines over and over until they ‘re delivered without a hitch.
So what if she got fired from The View? Now Star Jones Reynolds is free to pursue her dream of becoming a MOVIE STAR! You might not remember, but Star made a guest appearance on the Lifetime series Strong Medicine a few years back and she was DEVOURED by the acting bug. Star figured if Oprah can act, she could too. Sadly, her boss Barbara Walters doused her acting aspirations – pointing out that Star could “lose credibility as a TV journalist and legal expert.” And that was THAT. Star had to put her passion to act on the back burner. After her huge weight loss the idea of acting became even more plausible, but Ms Walters always stood in her say. Now she’s FREE to give Hollywood a try, and we bet hubby Al is already packing his bags for Beverly Hills.
