WHAT BRITNEY AND MADONNA HAVE IN COMMON

Everybody’s heard about Britney Spears teenage sons and their embarrassment because their mother keeps posting sexy – sometimes nude- photos of herself. Britney continues to post the pix and the kids continue to avoid her. Madonna’s oldest offspring are in their 20’s and we haven’t HEARD any complaints from Rocco or Lourdes. Rocco Ritchie just MIGHT have made his feelings known when he abruptly moved to London to live with his father a few years ago. He did not inherit his mother’s naughty sense of style – he loves vintage mid-century tweedy clothes and looks adorable.) Madonna’s daughter Lourdes Leon went the other way – she’s apparently NOT at all embarrassed by her mother – in fact she’s inspired to follow in mom’s footsteps with naughty photos in skimpy clothing.

NICK CANNON AND ONE HAPPY BABY

Nick Cannon, 42, and his numerous baby mamas happily post photos of themselves celebrating birthdays, holidays etc separately, making him appear to be a devoted father. So far he is obviously not late with his support payments – none of the moms are complaining. But has he thought about the cost of college tuition? Nick and one baby mama, Bre Tiesi, 31, visited a pumpkin patch with their 3 month old baby Legendary Love (no kidding!) and indeed they look happy. But what about the other 8 kids (one died) who did NOT visit the pumpkin patch with dad? How do THEY feel? Looks like Nick thinks he’s doing the world a favor, and hints that he is NOT finished having semi-fatherless children. He’s setting quite an example for his sons – and daughters…

KANYE WEST AND NORTH WEST HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON

Kanye West took his three oldest kids – North, 9, Saint, 6, and Chicago, 4, out to dinner in Paris during Fashion Week and North is starting to REALLY enjoy the limelight. She wore 4 inch platform boots with her all black outfit and the other kids also wore head-to-toe black. Even the nanny was dressed all in black. Earlier that day, Kanye had walked the runway in the Balenciaga fashion show wearing a black military oversize jacket with a hood, baseball cap, and dark glasses – essentially looking just the same as he has for the past six months OFF the runway…

NICK CANNON IS NOT THE COOL GUY HE THINKS HE IS

Why is nobody criticizing Nick Cannon for having 10 children with five or more different women? Since when is this amusing and okay? Nick gets tons of publicity for his unconventional relationships and NONE of it seems to be remotely negative! One has to wonder about these questionable baby-mamas willing to have children with a man with whom they have no ties. You don’t suppose they’re just interested in fame or money, do you? At least Mariah Carey’s twins were born when she and Nick were married. Consider the NAMES some of Nick’s women gave their children: Powerful Queen, Zillion Heir, Legendary Love. No kidding. How can these kids have normal lives? Does excessive procreation make Nick feel like a big macho stud? Will other guys imitate Cannon so THEY can feel like big macho studs?

RICHARD GERE STILL ISN’T GAY

Along came the pandemic and we forgot all about Richard Gere. He became single in 2016 when his divorce from Carey Lowell was finalized (She remarked that she fell in love with his CHARACTER in An Officer and a Gentleman)- they had a cute son, Homer, who’s 22 now. After dating various pretty young women, Gere, now 72, settled on Spanish publicist/political activist Alejandra Silva (who is 33 years younger than he is) and they got married in 2018. She comes from a wealthy Spanish family and went to school in the US. They already have two young sons – age 2 and 3. The Gere family lives at his NY ranch but they often vacation in Spain. We remember back in the 80’s when Richard’s career was red HOT, that jealous guys liked to insist that Richard was gay, but it turned out they were wrong…

BRITNEY SPEARS FORGOT SHE’S ALREADY A MOTHER

Really? Britney Spears says she doesn’t understand why her posing nude on Instagram would bother her teenage sons? Remember, these boys are in high school and like everyone else, trying to fit in. They just happen to have a very famous mother. Preston is 16 and Jayden is 15. It seems like every time Britney posts a video of herself dancing that repetitive twirl in skimpy clothing, or the nude pics with little stickers in the right places, she gets a ton of publicity. Mix that in with Britney’s not-so-subtle accusations and feud with her family, and Jayden and Preston are obviously just plain embarrassed (Imagine the classroom comments!) They let their mother know about it by refusing to attend her wedding to Sam Asghari, and avoiding her for the past few months. Is Britney too obsessed with trying to have a baby to think about the two sons she already has?

ALEC BALDWIN IS SET TO TIE THE NICK CANNON RECORD

Nick Cannon’s announcement this week that he just fathered his 8th child, reminded us that the OTHER actor in competition for father of the decade, Alec Baldwin, is expecting his 8th baby this fall. The main difference between these two prolific guys is that Nick’s babies have many different mothers, while six of Alec’s kids come from his current wife Hilaria, and one (Ireland, 26) from his ex-wife Kim Basinger. Alec’s wife Hilaria had two miscarriages in 2019, so Alec fell behind in the race with Cannon. We wonder if Hilaria’s pretending to be Spanish has anything to do with her desire to have SO many kids with a 64 year old father. What IS she thinking? ALL the Baldwin kids are under the age of 9 – can you imagine the chaos in that household? And Hilaria, 38, does NOT appear to be slowing down…

IS THIS THE PERFECT FAMILY, OR WHAT?

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck didn’t spend ALL their time smooching in Paris, where they’re honeymooning with four of their kids. Jennifer brought her twins Max and Emme, and Ben brought his two daughters Seraphina and Violet – he left his young son Sam at home. From all the photos we’ve seen, the kids seem to get along really well and love to hang out together. Ben and Jen took their blended family shopping and after visiting Dior and an art supply store (for Serephina) they visited Micromania– a popular video game retailer. Ben stocked up on games (for Sam at home?) while their eagle-eyed bald bodyguards (above) looked on. You can see Emme in the shop doorway and Max is next to Ben. Crowds gather outside the Costes Hotel in Paris to watch the honeymooners coming and going.

MICHAEL JACKSON’S KIDS WILL NEVER HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT MONEY

When Michael Jackson died 13 years ago, he was actually in debt – and had sold Neverland. When he signed up for his last concert tour before he died, they leased a house for him to live in. But some very smart estate executors have been handling what money he had, and now his estate is worth 2 billion dollars! That means his three kids, Prince, 25, Paris, 24, and Bigi, 20, and his mother Katherine, 92, are set for life. Prince is the smart one – he graduated with honors from Loyola Marymount University (the first Jackson to do so?) and co-founded a charity called Heal Los Angeles. Why Paris and Bigi passed on higher education is a mystery, but it didn’t do them any good. Paris is currently singing in concerts across the country- believing, no doubt, that she inherited musical talent from her late father Michael. Sensible Prince does not claim that Michael was his biological father, just his father.

THE BRADY BUNCH IN PORTOFINO

America’s picture-perfect family is vacationing in Italy and the other tourists are delighted to see them there. Believe it or not, visitors tend to ignore Gisele Bundchen and beg Tom Brady for selfies -he amiably obliges. And SHE is the most successful Supermodel in the world! The Bradys have 2 kids together- Vivian, 9, and Benjamin, 12, and they couldn’t get enough of the Italian ice cream. Gisele indulged also. Tom has another son, Jack, 14, with actress Bridget Moynahan. That’s quite a story-Tom had split from Bridget and started dating Gisele when he learned Bridget was pregnant. Gisele hung in there anyway (says she loves Jack) and she and Tom got married. Happy ending – Bridget married someone else too.
