New Year’s Eve

HARRY STYLES WILL HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR

It turns out that Harry Styles is not a bad guy to have for a boyfriend. You recall, Harry and Olivia Wilde met last year on the set of Don’t Worry Darling– she directed and he starred in the film. The romance went public in January and Harry’s devoted fans went berserk, saying awful things about ten-years-older Olivia online. To her credit, Olivia didn’t let it bother her – she “doesn’t care what online strangers think!” Flash forward – Harry is headlining the Beach Bash in Miami on December 30. The promoter offered him over a million dollars to stay ONE more day and perform the NEXT night (New Year’s Eve) – a truly tempting gig! But Harry turned it DOWN! He already has plans to fly to LA and see Olivia…

DITA VON TEESE WILL SURPRISE YOU ON NEW YEAR’S EVE

Undecided about what to do on New Year’s Eve? Here’s a suggestion: spend the evening with Dita Von Teese at a fabulous restored movie palace in downtown Los Angeles. Dita invited us to this show one year and it proved to be the perfect New Year’s Eve. Arrive early because the lavish, huge, and amazing Orpheum Theater from Hollywood’s golden era is a joy to investigate (that ladies room!) Dita’s musical burlesque show is SO appropriate to the era and quite beautiful – not at all vulgar.

NICOLAS CAGE HAD A MODEST HOLIDAY

If you were wondering where Nicolas Cage spent New Year’s Eve, wonder no more. He surprised locals at a tiny pub in the rather obscure Somerset village of Baltonsborough in the UK. Nic has owned a getaway cottage in the vicinity since 2006, and sometimes slides into town to spend the holidays there. He bought a round of drinks for his delighted neighbors in the pub and posed for selfies.

…BUT CAN THE KARDASHIANS KEEP UP WITH KRIS JENNER?

Now that she’s single, Kris Jenner, 59, is living it up like there’s no tomorrow – or like she’s in her twenties again. She whisked her boyfriend Corey Gamble onto a private jet and they flew to Aspen for New Year’s Eve. After hitting a fundraiser at the St Regis hotel there in her chinchilla coat, Kris and Corey met some friends at Bootsy Bellows where Kris had a reserved table and the most expensive bottle service. It’s not often that WOMEN blow huge amounts of money at these clubs – according to employees it’s usually Saudi princes or ostentatious rappers. Kris didn’t flinch at her $20,000 tab! She treats her dates RIGHT.

P DIDDY’S SECURITY GUARDS DIDN’T LIKE ROSIE O’DONNELL’S FASHION

We couldn’t help but laugh when we heard that Rosie O’Donnell and six “casually dressed” friends were turned away by security guards at the door at Sean “Diddy” Combs’ fancy Miami New Year’s Eve party. We picture Rosie’s buddies as being no-nonsense hefty athletic girls like herself – dressed in t shirts, baggy shorts and crocs. No makeup or stilettos there. Uninformed guards would certainly be prone to refuse entrance to such a group – they know their boss Diddy favors sexy hot young girls. Maybe if the gals had dressed for the occasion it would have been a different story.

“NEW YEAR’S EVE” FLOPPED BECAUSE THE AUDIENCE REMEMBERED HOW BAD “VALENTINES DAY ” WAS

There’s a good reason why the box office returns this past weekend were at a record low: the new releases were incredibly bad. “New Year’s Eve” only pulled in $13.7 million dollars (Jonah Hill’s poorly reviewed “The Sitter” took second place with 10 million.) Last February the same team who did “New Year’s Eve” released the similar “Valentine’s Day” to an opening of $56.3 million. So why didn’t the audience flock to see this year’s Garry Marshall star studded extravaganza? Because the audience REMEMBERED how disappointing “Valentines Day” was. A multitude of attractive stars (above) cannot save a LAME script and a tired predictable story. Hopefully the movie audience is actually getting smarter about their choices.

A TALE OF TWO PRETTY WOMEN


Seriously, who IS this blond bombshell? Do you recognize her? We admit we had a hard time with this one…

Holy cow! It’s not easy to look gorgeous when you’re standing next to decades younger pretty boy Zac Efron, but Michelle >Pfeiffer, 53, is more than holding her own! She looks adorable! They were at the New Year’s Eve premier. By the way, that’s Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas sexing it up in the top photo…

ZAC EFRON AND MICHELLE PFEIFFER: TOGETHER AGAIN

Zac Efron, 23, and his “Hairspray” costar Michelle Pfeiffer, 52, are reunited in their currently filming movie “New Year’s Eve.” It’s about a group of single people and couples in New York whose lives intersect on New Years Eve. (The same idea as last year’s “Valentines Day” except it doesn’t take place in LA and has mostly a different ensemble cast.) Zac plays a delivery guy with a Vespa who takes Michelle for a ride.

SANDRA BULLOCK AND RYAN REYNOLDS: WHERE THERE’S SMOKE THERE’S FIRE

There’s a whole lot of denying going on concerning the relationship of Ryan Reynolds and his “The Proposal” costar Sandra Bullock. They’ve been seen together in Austin more than once (including New Years Eve) and Ryan reportedly stayed at Sandra’s house there. Both sides insist it’s a platonic friendship and divorced Sandra is consoling Ryan over HIS divorce. How many straight men fly across the country to spend New Years Eve with a PLATONIC female friend? Get real. Not many straight men even HAVE attractive female platonic friends without “benefits.” Whatever happens, we do love seeing them together.
