CELINE DION: HERE COMES THE SUN

Celine Dion might be saying say au revoir to Paris and aloha to Honolulu. The ailing singer is suffering from stiff person syndrome and it’s so bad she indefinitely postponed her tour. Celine’s a fighter though, and she’s NOT giving up. A specialist recommended she avoid cold weather, so she’s thinking about dividing her time between her Paris apartment and her mansion in Las Vegas – and then buying a home in tropical and warm Hawaii. Celine plans to spend the hottest summer months between Vegas and Paris and the rest of the year soaking up the sunshine in Honolulu. A source says she’s looking at oceanfront homes in the posh community between Diamond Head and Kahala Beach.

BARACK AND MICHELLE OBAMA FOUND THEIR HAPPY PLACE

Forget Chicago. (It was 11 degrees there this weekend.) Former Prez Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle are looking to live part-time where Barack grew up – in beautiful Hawaii. They’ve always vacationed there with their daughters, and now the Obamas are building a new home there- but it hasn’t been easy. Their beachfront property on the island of Oahu is causing an uproar with neighbors. First an ancient burial site had to be moved, and a turtle pond was threatened. The acreage also features a sea wall that could accelerate erosion of the public beach. Obama has been dealing successfully with most of the problems and he stopped by the site to inspect progress this week. Barack and Michelle also dined at the Island Vintage Wine Bar in Honolulu and posed for a photo with the owner Paul Kang and the chef Christine Lee. Both look relaxed and happy – and well fed.

MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY QUARANTINES IN ALL THE RIGHT PLACES

We feel more than a twinge of envy for Matthew McConaughey’s new $7.85 million dollar vacation home in Hawaii. The 7000 sq ft home sits on an acre with magnificent ocean views and a huge infinity pool. 6 bedrooms and 6 1/2 bathrooms, including TWO master suites and a media room. Matthew pulled his 89 year old mother Kay out of her retirement community during the pandemic, and she’s been quarantining with Matthew, his wife Camila, their three kids, and four dogs. Luckily, his mom and Camila struck up nice friendship. We have a feeling mom will be claiming that second master.

AVA SAMBORA IS DADDY’S LITTLE GIRL

110837PCN_Richie18

We’re guessing that Heather Locklear is off somewhere with her plastic surgeon boyfriend, because her ex-husband Richie Sambora and their 16 year old daughter Ava are vacationing together in Hawaii. Richie did not tour with his band Bon Jovi in 2013, so he’s had lots of time to spend with Ava – they also went to Europe this summer.

EDDIE MURPHY: IN A LOVE TRANCE IN HAWAII

Eddie Murphy is turning on the charm for his Australian glamour model girlfriend Paige Butcher as they lounge on the balcony of a hotel in Hawaii where they’re vacationing. Eddie had been playing the guitar and singing to Paige earlier. This is a long term romance for Eddie, 52. (Are we crazy or did Eddie used to say in his stand-up act that he wouldn’t date white women?) He and Paige, 33, have been together since last fall.

STEVEN TYLER IS CHALLENGING THE FIRST AMENDMENT

Steven Tyler REALLY didn’t like photos taken of him on the beach in Hawaii. He went so far as to ask a senator there to sponsor legislation making it a civil violation if people take unwanted photos or videos of others without permission. The Aerosmith singer owns a million dollar home in Maui and hates seeing unflattering pics of himself splashed all over magazines. Senate members approved the “Steven Tyler bill” to protect celebrities, and now it goes to the House for voting, where clearer heads are expected to prevail.

DIANE KEATON’S BEACH STYLE IS ALL BLACK

We can think of two people who might be frolicking in the ocean in Hawaii with her kids (Dexter, 14, and Duke, 9, above) while wearing a black long sleeve t shirt and black pants. One is Madonna and the other is in this photo: Diane Keaton. Diane has never been one to show a lot of skin and on top of that, she likes to keep the sun at bay. At least she’s not wearing a turtleneck.

WHY MEGAN FOX COULDN’T MARRY BRIAN AUSTIN GREEN FAST ENOUGH

We’re not at ALL surprised that Megan Fox suddenly decided to marry Brian Austin Green. (A tiny ceremony, June 24, at the Four Seasons Hotel in Hawaii.) Gorgeous Megan seems to have lost all her self-confidence and she took the easy and safe way out. She was madly in love with her Transformers costar Shia LaBeouf, but that didn’t work out, and she returned to her longtime BF Brian. It was a shock when she lost her lucrative Transformers 3 job so easily and was REPLACED so quickly by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. Then her movie “Jonah Hex” flopped miserably last week. It was all too much – the insecure Megan grabbed her life support – the reliable Brian, who’s more than willing to take care of her.
