Antibodies Covid-19 Rita Wilson Tom Hanks

RITA WILSON: BAD NEWS FOR US, GOOD NEWS FOR PFIZER

Rita Wilson and Ellen Degeneres chatted about Covid-19 on Ellen today and Rita revealed a pertinent piece of information. Rita and hubby Tom Hanks were the first celebrities diagnosed with Covid, and they announced it on March 12, 2020, from Australia where they remained in isolation for two weeks. Rita told Ellen that 9 months after her recovery she still had antibodies. BUT, two months later, Rita was tested again and had NONE! Presumably she can now catch Covid again, and needs vaccine like everyone else. This of course implies that we will probably all have to be vaccinated for Covid EVERY YEAR just like we get flu shots! Good news for the drug manufacturers…

Covid-19 Hollywood Boulevard

ANOTHER REASON TO GET THAT COVID VACCINE SHOT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

Never thought we’d live to see the day when Hollywood Boulevard is deserted. Last year at this time it was alive with shoppers, skateboarders, giddy tourists, and nightclub kids. Not to mention the people dressed up like Batman, Superman, Cher, or Johnny Depp the pirate, eager to pose for a photo with you. Traffic was always in gridlock thanks to tourist busses, cruising lowriders, and sightseers. Now Hollywood Blvd looks like the aftermath of chemical warfare. Shops and restaurants that survived demonstrations and looting, were ordered closed by the government during Covid and boarded up. Hopefully this memorable street will return better than ever – and so will we.

PARIS HILTON HAS GROWN UP!

There is nothing Paris Hilton loves more than a huge loud party, loaded with her friends and assorted handsome strangers. Anytime there’s a holiday, Paris is ready to dress up and party non-stop. Paris’s LA home is always lavishly decorated with millions of sparkling lights inside and out, for Christmas. This year she posted clips on social media from her fabulous parties in the past, featuring her friends and celebrities like Snoop Dogg and Diddy. She wrote “Every year I throw an epic Christmas party at my house – I’m sad that I can’t this year – here’s hoping for 2021! A few days ago Diddy threw a festive party for his mother’s 80th birthday and seemed to ignore all Covid recommendations – including masks and social distancing. Was Paris shading his bad behavior? It IS nice to see Paris showing some common sense.

COURTENEY COX JUST COULDN’T WAIT

For the past nine months Courteney Cox has been separated from her Irish musician boyfriend Johnny McDaid, thanks to Covid. Johnny returned home from California one day before lockdown and has been there ever since. On December 11 a video appeared on Twitter featuring Courteney and Johnny and she seems to be in the UK with him. The purpose of the video was to thank frontline workers in Johnny’s home town in Ireland. The first thing that comes to mind is: after staying safe for so long, should she have flown to see him? Are we wrong in thinking this is a bad idea?

Anti-vax Chloe Lattanzi Cosmetic Surgery Covid-19 Olivia Newton John

CHLOE LATTANZI: HOPELESSLY DEVOTED TO COSMETIC SURGERY

We just HAD to laugh when we heard that Olivia Newton John’s attention-seeking daughter Chloe Lattanzi is opposed to vaccines and science based medicine. She prefers “natural” medicines. In her social media posts, she also supports conspiracy theories about the Covid pandemic. Australian fans of Olivia were appalled and made fun of Chloe, saying “She doesn’t trust doctors- but she spent $550.000 on plastic surgery! Chloe has showbiz aspirations and she had numerous surgeries on her nose, lips, and breast augmentation among other things. Chloe, 34, is now running a cannabis farm in Oregon with her boyfriend. She was SO attacked online for her medical opinions that she removed her comments.

Coco Arquette Courteney Cox Covid-19

COURTENEY COX HAD A CLOSE CALL WITH COVID

At least we know that Courteney Cox has been hunkering down during the pandemic at a magnificent (probably mid-century or modern) house in Malibu. She has a knack for buying gorgeous architectural homes that need updating, re-doing them, and selling them for a hefty profit. Early on during the pandemic, Cox and her daughter Coco invited a couple of friends to isolate with them, and after testing negative, the friends moved in. Two days later one of the guests came down with Covid and ended up deathly ill on a ventilator. The other isolated in the guest house and Courteney brought him food every day. Luckily Courteney and Coco didn’t get sick – but it was quite a scare.

""The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud" Covid-19 Mask Sharon Stone Sister

SHARON STONE IS WORRIED SICK ABOUT HER SISTER KELLY HOSPITALIZED WITH COVID-19

It’s nice to see celebrities like Jennifer Aniston and Sharon Stone pleading with fans to wear masks and commit to social distancing. Jennifer had a friend hospitalized with Covid-9 and Sharon Stone’s younger sister Kelly, who also has lupus, is in the hospital and gasping for breath. Sharon says “One of you non-mask wearers did this.” (Kelly’s husband is also in the hospital with Covid-19) Worried Sharon is dead serious when she warns fans to “wear a mask for yourself and others!”

Alyssa Milano Covid-19 Hair! Mask

ALYSSA MILANO APPEALED TO OUR VANITY TO BATTLE THE VIRUS

Thank you Alyssa Milano! AT LAST we have a POWERFUL motivation to avoid Covid-19 by wearing a mask and social distancing! It’s all about VANITY. And SOME people really needed this nudge. Hopefully, all those people who resist taking precautions will now be scared stiff because Alyssa Milano pointed out that the virus can make hair fall out! And NOBODY wants less hair. (Are you listening, Donald Trump?) Those macho guys on motorcycles without masks will now think twice about what life would be like without their ponytails and man buns. And those unmasked women with fake doctor’s excuses might not be so pushy when they learn HAIR LOSS is a real possibility!

Courteney Cox Covid-19 Dogs Jennifer Aniston Mask

DON’T LET JENNIFER ANISTON AND COURTENEY COX CATCH YOU WITHOUT A MASK!

Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox are in total agreement about dogs and masks. They both adore their dogs (these pooches are Courtney’s) and urge everyone to wear masks. Earlier, they posted a photo of a previously healthy friend named Kevin in the hospital with dozens of tubes attached to his body, suffering with Covid-19 as a warning. The Friends stars insist “We want this to END –so wear a MASK!”

Covid-19 Dogs Isolation Oprah

IS OPRAH TAKING ISOLATION TOO FAR?

Okay, we can understand Oprah being extremely careful and isolating her boyfriend Stedman Graham to the guesthouse for two weeks after his European trip. After all, Oprah has been sick with pneumonia recently and still has discomfort. But we have to seriously question her decision to isolate her cocker spaniel Sadie after a trip to the vet. Wouldn’t a sudsy bath have been ENOUGH to clean up the poor pup? There are no known cases of a human catching Covid-19 from a pet. (Most people would rather isolate their spouse than the family dog!) Oprah is setting a weird precedent – at least we can assume Sadie is being waited on hand and foot by Oprah’s employees.
