HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

The Malibu fire was one of the biggest stories coming out of Hollywood this week and here’s what we know. While it was reported that Cher had to evacuate her beachfront mansion, what WASN’T reported was that she picked up the tab for some less affluent residents to stay at a hotel a few miles down from the evacuation zone in nearby Santa Monica. My source says that when Cher heard through the grapevine that a few older residents were being brought to shelter, she arranged to pick up their tab for a hotel until the area was safe to return to and insisted on doing her good deed anonymously.

Selena Gomez had an especially good week, getting engaged and getting a Golden Globe nomination for Only Murders in the Building. While she posted a massive diamond engagement ring from new fiance Benny Blanco, we just heard that this wasn’t the first ring he used to pop the question. Benny actually proposed weeks before, but the ring he had custom made wasn’t ready, so he used a lab created diamond ring and explained that her actual ring was on the way. My source says that Benny wanted to propose on a specific day and time since he’s big into numerology, so that’s why he was forced to use a substitute ring when he asked Selena to marry him.

Donald Trump Jr. made the news after he ended his engagement to Kimberly Guilfoyle and went public with Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson. While this is hardly news to our loyal readers (since we wrote up this months ago) we just heard this: No sooner did Junior officially dump Kim, but he’s now planning to propose to Bettina and he wants a White House wedding in 2025! My inside source reveals that Donald Sr. LOVES the idea of having his son marry in the White House.

Taylor Swift was talked about this week since her highly successful Eras tour just ended. We just heard that while Taylor is taking some time off from performing her hiatus won’t be that long. She’s working on a pay per view live concert from Las Vegas which will likely take place in mid 2025 if all of the arrangements can be worked out.

Another huge story of the week was Megan Fox dumping her boyfriend Machine Gun Kelly even though she’s nearly in her third trimester of pregnancy with his baby. We had the scoop that she was pregnant and we also had the scoop she was having a girl. Here’s what we know. While we also previously reported that the couple were still having some issues we just heard that Megan is planning to sue for full custody and child support and my source says she’s confident she will get it because she allegedly has some very unflattering information on MGK. My source adds that this split was a long time coming and that Megan and MGK are now only communicating through their respective attorneys.

Finally, Donald Trump made headlines for so many reasons including being named Time Magazine’s Person of the Year. Here’s the latest on Donald. He’s always been like a month to a flame when it comes to people who have more money and social standing than he does, and now he’s finally being welcomed into their social circles. My source says that behind the scenes, a campaign is being conducted to butter him. up. Donald was even invited to become a member of The Union Club, one of the oldest and most exclusive social clubs in NYC. Ironically, Donald is the only Republican president whose portrait isn’t hanging in the club, but all of that is about to change since people have seemed to finally figure out the easiest way to manipulate narcissist Donald is to shower him with compliments.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

As more and more accusers come out against Sean Diddy Combs, we are hearing that Jennifer Lopez has now lawyered up as she’s anticipating getting dragged into the legal proceedings. Jennifer has been told to expect a subpoena and she’s quietly retained an attorney who specializes in these matters. We also heard Diddy is terrified that J.Lo could be the final nail in his coffin and he’ll never see freedom again.

Surprise, surprise! Donald Trump made the news again for another shocking reason. His former chief of staff, John Kelly revealed that Trump once invoked Adolf Hitler and wanted a military like he had. No surprise that pathological liar Trump DENIED the story, but we are hearing this. Allegedly an audio tape of the outburst exists, so don’t be too surprised if it gets released before Election Day. As my source puts it, any Jewish person who supports Trump now will likely have second thoughts once they hear the supposed recording.

Liam Payne’s drug fueled death in Buenos Aires is still dominating the headlines as more sordid details emerge. Here’s what we just heard. His former band, One Direction, is secretly planning to reunite for either a charity concert or a new song to raise money in Liam’s honor for mental health issues. It’s a huge secret and the countless details (not to mention egos) still need to be worked out, but behind closed doors the plan is being worked on.

Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs teammate, Rashee Rice, made headlines when his mom, Marsha was charged with a misdemeanor – for allegedly swiping a package off of a neighbors’s porch. We heard that although Rashee is out for most of the season with an injury, he’s still attending games and the powers that be have made it clear he’s not to be photographed anywhere near Taylor Swift when she attends games. Interestingly enough, this edict didn’t come from Taylor’s people, but from the Chiefs execs as they don’t want to risk Taylor getting any bad publicity for attending games.

Renee Zellweger is standing by her man, Ant Anstead, who just made headlines amid his company’s bankruptcy filing and allegations of fraud on his part! Our well placed source reveals that Renee is opening up her pocketbook and offered to help Ant with the mounting expenses of the filing. Ant previously revealed that he sunk the vast majority of his money into the bespoke car company and Renee (who is much much wealthier) isn’t fazed that his fortunes could be changing. As my source explains, although they don’t have a marriage license, Renee basically considers herself married to Ant and that means for richer or poorer.

And finally the Kardashians made the news for filming a top secret project this week. While the open book family usually shares way too much information on everything, this time they’re being notoriously tight lipped. Here’s what we know. The project involving the entire family was a Super Bowl commercial. Remember those commercials are basically mini movies and cost millions to produce and millions more to air. The entire family -and of course everyone involved- had to sign NDA’s so while we don’t know for sure what product or company the spot is for we have heard some rumblings that it was a commercial for Amazon Prime. This makes perfect sense since Kim and her mom Kris Jenner are close to Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.

TAYLOR SWIFT ROLLS OUT THE RED CARPET FOR THE ROYALS

Taylor Swift’s London concerts were the place to be as everyone from Tom Cruise, Travis Kelce and Prince William with his two oldest children showed up. Williams’s wife, Kate Middleton couldn’t make it since she’s still recovering, and was told to avoid large crowds. Not only did Taylor pose for photos with William and the happy kids, she also recorded a personalized video for Kate, wishing her a speedy recovery and promising her the best seats in the house for any of her future concerts when she recovers! And that’s not all, Taylor also gave Prince George and Princess Charlotte bags of concert swag, which she signed for the starstruck kids.

BEYONCE HAS SUPER CONCERT PLANNED FOR LUCKY L.A.

Beyoncé is having a star studded birthday party and YOU are invited… IF you can afford the steep ticket price! Beyoncé is turning 42 on September 4 and she’s performing in LA that day on her Renaissance World Tour.  Our source says lucky concertgoers can expect to see a fabulous bunch of surprise guests joining Queen Bey on stage as she celebrates her birthday. The final details are still being worked out, but potential performers include her husband Jay-Z, Madonna, Britney Spears, Chris Martin and even a Destiny’s Child mini reunion with Kelly Rowland! For the majority of us who won’t be there, the plan is to tape the concert and sell it to a streaming service….of course.

ADELE IS LYING TO HER FANS

When Adele abruptly canceled her four month Las Vegas residency 24 hours before the first show, she tearfully blamed Covid among the cast and crew, plus delivery delays. (Of course other shows had managed to survive thru those same problems!) Most revealing was the fact that Adele CANCELED her residency instead of POSTPONING it – implying there’s more to this than meets the eye. The truth is coming out in bits and pieces. A source at Caesar’s Palace where she was rehearsing said Adele couldn’t get through a single rehearsal without passionately calling her boyfriend Rich Paul and crying and shouting into the phone. Relationship problems? Was the pressure for a huge extravaganza more than she could handle? Has her stage fright returned? It’s a disaster for Caesar’s Palace and Adele is not being honest about the situation. (And this isn’t the only thing she’s lying about- more on that later)

SPEND A PRICEY WEEKEND WITH ADELE

Brace yourself for some PAINFUL ticket prices. Adele is appearing at the Caesar’s Palace Colosseum starting on January 21 thru April 16 and she’s doing two shows per weekend. The singer, who’s already worth 220 million,(and complained that it’s too expensive to live in London) is expected to earn $680,000 PER NIGHT! Not including the sales of Adele t-shirts and merchandise, of course. Superfans can buy a “Weekend with Adele” (including two shows and a hotel room) for from $952 to $12,244 for the best seats. Regular concert tickets START at $400. To put this in perspective, Britney Spears took home $475,00 per night in Las Vegas. Is Adele the highest paid singer in the world? She’s the female Frank Sinatra

BAD BUNNY THRILLS FANS – AND KEEPS THEM ALIVE

Bad Bunny surprised us by looking pretty darn hot in concert this weekend. This was his first big concert since 9019 and he had plenty of new music. He released an astonishing THREE albums in 2020 and he was named most streamed artist of 2021 by Spotify. 45000 fans went nuts for him in Puerto Rico and as far as we know, 45000 walked out alive at the end…

CHER: HERE SHE GOES AGAIN

As expected, there was no shortage of sequins or hair at Cher’s performance in New Jersey on her Here We Go Again tour.The audience loved her and gave her an ear-splitting ovation, to which she wisecracked: “I always wonder if you’re clapping because I’m not dead yet, or because I can still fit into my costumes!”

SHARON STONE IS EXCITED ABOUT SPENDING THE EVENING WITH ADELE

Sharon Stone and her friends are more than ready for a night of fun at the Adele concert at the Staples Center. Adele has an eight night sold out run in LA and both her shows and albums are leaving major performers like Beyonce and Taylor Swift in the dust. People simply can’t get enough of Adele’s sensitive lyrics and just plain beautiful music. No state of the art spectacles like most concerts. Adele has been in LA long enough this time to experience a few things and onstage she declared her love for Bristol Farms – the upscale celebrity grocery store. (It’s our favorite too!)

FRANK SINATRA JR NO LONGER RESEMBLES HIS FATHER

AG062751_01frank

Nancy Sinatra isn’t the only Sinatra offspring celebrating the 100th anniversary of Frank’s birth. While Nancy is in New York making personal appearances, Frank Jr has a big year ahead of him. He and his orchestra are touring with a special tribute show and he’ll be performing his father’s legendary songs along with recollections and videos detailing his father’s life. He’s in London now and it looks as if he has been enjoying a lot of Italian food in Las Vegas where he usually performs.
