BRAD PITT’S LUCKY NUMBER

It’s hard to imagine but according to a friend, the usually sensible Brad Pitt is actually superstitious – with 12 being his lucky number. Pay attention… Brad was nominated for his first Oscar for 12 Monkeys, then in 2012 was nominated twice for Moneyball before finally taking home the coveted award a few years later for 12 Years A Slave. Brad even has “12” discreetly tattooed on his body. He recently confided to a friend that he and his then-wife Angelina Jolie originally planned to have 12 kids. Speaking of kids, the insider says Brad is definitely open to having more. He’s been dating 30-year-old jewelry designer Ines De Ramon for months now and they’ve already had the talk about babies, with Brad saying he definitely wants more.

TIFFANY HADDISH: THE HARDER I WORK, THE LUCKIER I GET!

Tiffany Haddish’s lucky streak just keeps on going…In the past few years she has lost 50 pounds, (thru diet and exercise – not surgery!) she gave up smoking, and she became a full-fledged movie star. Not only that but her love life continues to flourish with her boyfriend Common. They were often seen together at BLM demonstrations. Now Tiffany is at the Venice Film Festival where the “revenge thriller” she stars in, The Card Counter, is in competition. Directer Paul Schrader is known for the intensity of his films so it was a surprise when Tiffany was cast – she plays a professional gambler’s agent and adds a bit of levity to the hard-edge drama.

THE LUCKIEST GUY IN NEW YORK

He enjoys NOT being noticed SO much that Zayn Malek will probably continue wearing a mask long after everyone else has stopped, in spite of the fact that he was blessed with drop-dead good looks. He’s also lucky to have a girlfriend (Gigi Hadid) who is not only gorgeous but VERY successful, and she just gave birth to his child with no marriage commitment. Zayn blames extreme anxiety for his antisocial behavior, but he should have gotten a grip on it by now. In 2015 he walked out on perhaps the most successful music group of all time – One Direction -at the height of their popularity, and left his bandmates in SHOCK. He didn’t even try to explain or mend friendships with them. Why? He says he wants to have a solo career, but backed out of touring. Zayn is extremely lucky, but remains his own worst enemy.

ADAM SANDLER: LUCKIEST GUY IN SHOWBIZ?

We KNEW that Adam Sandler was a very lucky guy – he continues to find the money to make one movie after another – no matter how bad most of them are! What we didn’t realize was that he also married well. His wife Jackie is VERY attractive and looks great even when the pair go to the local supermarket – which is more than you can say for Adam…

FELICITY HUFFMAN WAS LUCKY TO GET PRISON TIME

Let’s face it, if Felicity Huffman had been given the probation she was hoping (and begging) for – her career would have been over. The act of paying to have her daughter’s SAT scores falsely raised made Felicity HATED by every person who ever studied like crazy to get college acceptable grades, or who struggled to pay for tuition and expenses. At least she owned up to her illicit act and apologized. But if she had NOT gotten at least SOME jail time, SO many people would resent her white privilege that she would be dead meat in Hollywood. Getting two weeks in women’s prison means she might be able to work again someday…
