Reunion

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

As more and more accusers come out against Sean Diddy Combs, we are hearing that Jennifer Lopez has now lawyered up as she’s anticipating getting dragged into the legal proceedings. Jennifer has been told to expect a subpoena and she’s quietly retained an attorney who specializes in these matters. We also heard Diddy is terrified that J.Lo could be the final nail in his coffin and he’ll never see freedom again.

Surprise, surprise! Donald Trump made the news again for another shocking reason. His former chief of staff, John Kelly revealed that Trump once invoked Adolf Hitler and wanted a military like he had. No surprise that pathological liar Trump DENIED the story, but we are hearing this. Allegedly an audio tape of the outburst exists, so don’t be too surprised if it gets released before Election Day. As my source puts it, any Jewish person who supports Trump now will likely have second thoughts once they hear the supposed recording.

Liam Payne’s drug fueled death in Buenos Aires is still dominating the headlines as more sordid details emerge. Here’s what we just heard. His former band, One Direction, is secretly planning to reunite for either a charity concert or a new song to raise money in Liam’s honor for mental health issues. It’s a huge secret and the countless details (not to mention egos) still need to be worked out, but behind closed doors the plan is being worked on.

Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs teammate, Rashee Rice, made headlines when his mom, Marsha was charged with a misdemeanor – for allegedly swiping a package off of a neighbors’s porch. We heard that although Rashee is out for most of the season with an injury, he’s still attending games and the powers that be have made it clear he’s not to be photographed anywhere near Taylor Swift when she attends games. Interestingly enough, this edict didn’t come from Taylor’s people, but from the Chiefs execs as they don’t want to risk Taylor getting any bad publicity for attending games.

Renee Zellweger is standing by her man, Ant Anstead, who just made headlines amid his company’s bankruptcy filing and allegations of fraud on his part! Our well placed source reveals that Renee is opening up her pocketbook and offered to help Ant with the mounting expenses of the filing. Ant previously revealed that he sunk the vast majority of his money into the bespoke car company and Renee (who is much much wealthier) isn’t fazed that his fortunes could be changing. As my source explains, although they don’t have a marriage license, Renee basically considers herself married to Ant and that means for richer or poorer.

And finally the Kardashians made the news for filming a top secret project this week. While the open book family usually shares way too much information on everything, this time they’re being notoriously tight lipped. Here’s what we know. The project involving the entire family was a Super Bowl commercial. Remember those commercials are basically mini movies and cost millions to produce and millions more to air. The entire family -and of course everyone involved- had to sign NDA’s so while we don’t know for sure what product or company the spot is for we have heard some rumblings that it was a commercial for Amazon Prime. This makes perfect sense since Kim and her mom Kris Jenner are close to Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Megan Fox made a surprise appearance at her former fiancé Machine Gun Kelly’s recent 34th birthday party. Many people were surprised because they assumed their relationship was over after they called off their engagement. We know that the couple are still together for now, working on the relationship with therapy sessions a few times a week. Their engagement is still on pause and they’re not technically in a committed relationship, but couple’s counseling is helping them decide whether they should stay together and work toward marriage or go their separate ways.

Blast from the past, Delta Burke, made a surprise appearance on the Glamorous Trash podcast and while she dished the dirt on what happened with her exit from Designing Women , what she didn’t reveal is that CBS is working on a reunion movie, bringing back Delta, Jean Smart and Annie Potts. We know that the tentative script has them reuniting in Atlanta for the funeral of Julia Sugarbaker played by the late Dixie Carter. It’s not a done deal yet, but if the stars align the funny women will be back in Atlanta making us laugh.

Catch and kill has been in the news a lot this week thanks to Donald Trump’s ongoing criminal trial in New York City. Former National Enquirer honcho David Pecker testified how the tabloids make deals to purchase unfavorable stories about certain celebrities and not print them in exchange for cooperation from the celebrity. Our longtime work with the tabloids certainly made us familiar with this concept and while we weren’t there when the Trump agreement was hashed out, we can share this juicy tidbit. Decades ago the Enquirer made a similar deal with Bill Cosby – in exchange for not publishing stories about his wandering eye, Cosby provided the tabloid with exclusive interviews and information for years.

David Beckham made the news twice this week. First when he posted a video to his social media of The Spice Girls reuniting to honor of Victoria Beckham‘s 50th birthday. His second headline was his $18.8 million lawsuit against Mark Wahlberg and his fitness company F 45. Here’s what we know about both stories… Not only did the Spice Girls reunite for Victoria’s birthday, but they’re planning to perform together at next year‘s Grammy awards as they are set to be honored. As for the lawsuit, we’re hearing that it’s going to get ugly unless it gets settled quickly. David is confiding to pals he has some sort of smoking gun, but he’s not revealing exactly what it is!

And finally, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were vacationing in Carmel, California, this week but rest and relaxation weren’t the only reasons they were there. We can tell you this: The couple is looking to put down roots in California outside of Los Angeles, where Taylor already has a home. In addition to the Carmel and nearby Monterey area, they are also considering Santa Barbara. They are looking for a coastal community where they can settle down and raise a family. We heard that was the REAL reason they spent time up there and plan to visit Santa Barbara in the near future as well.

SEINFELD REUNION IS NOW A POSSIBILITY

Jerry Seinfeld was bitten by the TV bug after making a surprise guest appearance on the series finale of Curb Your Enthusiasm. Jerry played himself on the episode which paid homage to his own Seinfeld series finale decades earlier. According to a source, Jerry is suddenly having second thoughts about not doing a Seinfeld reunion after all these years. Nothing has been decided yet, but his former cast members are all up for it. If Jerry decides to greenlight the reunion, NBC, the network which aired the series, has offered MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS for a 2-hour reunion special. Tempting…

FRIENDS PROFITABLE CAST REUNION CALLED OFF

Our observant source – the same one who gave us the scoop about the Friends cast releasing a statement TOGETHER addressing Matthew Perry’s death – now shares this tidbit: The Friends cast was in top secret negotiations to reunite and film a TV commercial that was slated to air during next year’s Super Bowl. The game is being played in Las Vegas, so Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, David Schwimmer and of course, the late Matthew, were being courted to film a 60 second commercial promoting Vegas tourism with the tagline, “Have a Friendscation.” While it wasn’t a done deal, they were set to make a few MILLION each for one day’s work, but now with Matthew’s unexpected passing, the project is a no go.

JERRY SEINFELD SAID IT WOULD NEVER HAPPEN

Jerry Seinfeld’s 2020 Netflix comedy special was one of the streamer’s highest rated programs, and now Jerry might TOP those numbers with what they all said would never happen- a Seinfeld reunion! My source told me that Jerry and his former costars -including Julia Louis Dreyfus- are in top secret talks to revisit their popular sitcom, 25 years after its series finale. The details are far from worked out, but Jerry and his gang could each pocket millions, depending on the format. Netflix is HOPING for a 10 episode revival, but it could easily wind up being a two hour reunion movie. The source says it all comes down to money, but a deal is certainly looking more and more like a strong possibility.

FRIENDS REUNION: SO CLOSE AND YET SO FAR

Seems like the cast of Friends has been dropping hints about their upcoming reunion for YEARS now – they finally agreed to do it and be the big draw when HBO Max launches its streaming service in May. The reunion was scheduled to film on March 23 – 24 on the show’s original Warner Bros set, BUT coronavirus shut them down. Bad news for HBO Max’s debut, which will go on with Friends reruns instead. The reunion WILL be rescheduled and cast members definitely are up for it – they’re getting paid almost 3 million each for the special– remember, during the last season of Friends they each earned a historic million dollars an episode.

MADONNA AT THE MET: ANOTHER REASON FOR ROCCO TO STAY IN THE UK

After four months apart, Madonna and her runaway son Rocco, 15, just had a nice reunion in London at the end of April. Rocco is still living with his father Guy Ritchie, but he spent time with Madonna at her London home and he took her to his favorite skate park. Madonna posted a cute photo of them together looking chummy. Then she flew home and dressed in this strangely inappropriate outfit for the Met Ball. Do you suppose it might embarrass her kids? (They will be teased!) She’s a shoo-in for the Worst Dressed list.

On the road again. Simply Red (“If You Don’t Know Me By Now”) broke up in 2009 but Mick Hucknall and the band are back together and about to start their 30th anniversary reunion tour. Back in the 80’s, Mick described himself as a “sex addict” and said he often had three sexual encounters a day. Above, he was photographed leaving a London radio station where he promoted the upcoming tour.

THE GROWING UP GOTTI BOYS -AND THEIR EYEBROWS- ARE COMING BACK!

We are FASCINATED by the news that the Gotti boys, John, Frank, and Carmine, are returning to TV for one night on A&E’s “Growing Up Gotti: Ten Years Later.” (Nov 10) Hard to believe it’s been ten years since we watched those Long Island teenagers arguing about their hair gel and eating like wild animals. Their accents were so thick that the series had subtitles to translate. The Gotti mansion was lost in a bank foreclosure so maybe we’ll find out where Victoria lives now. Two of the brothers have girlfriends and one is engaged. Can’t WAIT to find out what they do for a living!

QUEER EYE IS COMING BACK FOR A LAST LOOK!

Bravo’s first smash hit reality show back in 2003 was “Queer Eye For the Straight Guy” and we LOVED the way these stylish gay men would take over a rumpled straight man’s dismal life and teach him how to groom himself, entertain, and LIVE in general. It was like a quickie charm school. (We’ve often thought about opening a charm school for men) Anyway, according to Deadline.com The Fab Five, Thom Filicia, Ted Allen, Carson Kressley, Jai Rodriguez, and Kyan Douglas, are coming back for a night on the “Queer Eye Reunion: 10 Years Later.Andy Cohen will talk to the guys about how the show changed their lives and reveal some behind the scenes gossip on Bravo in October.
