I Ain't One To Gossip But ...


Just an example of how overboard people go with social media … it seems 90210 star Jennie Garth is getting the shiz from people on social media for not posting photos and memories of Luke Perry following his death.

And even though her Instagram page was silent following Perry’s passing—she did release a statement to the press—sad fans waited for some crumbs. And her next post didn’t stop the haters; see, her first post after Perry’s death was a photo of her three daughters for International Women’s Day and that was too much for those so-called fans. They jumped in and Jennie clapped back:
“Hey everyone … I chose to post a pic of my girls today. Because they are my life. Because today is a day to celebrate all women. It took a lot for me to want to celebrate anything. I thought about it and I know that’s the way my dear friend would have wanted it. His kids were his life. And anyone who knew him knows that and knows he didn’t give a fuck about social media. So please don’t assume or judge or make rude comments.”
Snap. Why don’t we let people mourn the way they choose to mourn, m’kay?
Well, Kathy Griffin is still riding the Woe Is Me train following that nearly two-year-old photo of her with the bloody fake _____ head. And she’s still trying to drag My Husband In My Head, Anderson Cooper, for saying the picture was tasteless.

In a new interview, she talked AC again
“I was devastated. It still hurts. I mean, I really loved him.”
Um, Kathy, you unfunny asshat; if you loved Anderson you’d know he was giving his opinion, which you didn’t like, about an opinion you gave, which a lot of people didn’t like.

Grow up, move the fuck on, and become funny again.
Even billionaires are asshats and whiny little narcissistic bitches, and, no, I don’t mean _____ … cuz he ain’t no billionaire. This is about billionaire developer Harry Macklowe who splattered a picture of him with his eons younger fiancé on a Park Avenue building that his ex-wife of 58 years was moving into.

Harry and Linda Macklowe didn’t have a prenup, so they fought over their East Hamptons home, their $700 million art collection, and two adjoining apartments at 432 Park Ave … the building that Harry and new wife Patricia’s humongous faces currently terrorize. Both Harry and Linda wanted to live in the building but Linda won out and so Harry is acting like a dick.

And it might also be because Linda walked away with half of Harry’s $2 billion fortune.

I wonder how much that big picture cost him.
It’s funny, and sad, when people dredge up a nearly thirty-year-old feud to make themselves newsworthy, but that exactly what Peter Bogdanovich is doing by claiming that he and he only is responsible for Cher’s noteworthy role in Mask.

Yes, he came for Cher, bitches. When asked in an interview who was the most difficult actor he’s ever worked with, Peter said:
“Well, she didn’t trust anybody, particularly men. She doesn’t like men. That’s why she’s named Cher: She dropped her father’s name. Sarkisian, it is. She can’t act. She won Best Actress at Cannes because I shot her very well. And she can’t sustain a scene. She couldn’t do what Tatum [O’Neal] did in Paper Moon. She’d start off in the right direction, but she’d go off wrong somehow, very quickly. So I shot a lot of close-ups of her because she’s very good in close-ups.”
Damn, Pete! Why so angry? Oh … maybe because, why he also says he and Cher ended up getting along quite well making the movie, afterwards when he sued the studio for replacing his preferred Bruce Springsteen song at the end with one by Bob Seger, Cher sided against him.

So, he’s a tiny man with a big ego. Got it.
A-Rod proposed to JLo so these two kids with some five marriages, and many more engagements, between them are taking quite the risk. But has it already soured?

It seems that back in the day, A-Rod had an affair with Jessica Canseco, ex-wife of Jose Canseco, and now Jose is claiming it’s on again. In fact, he Tweeted about it:
“Watching World of Dance watching JLo text Alex Rodriguez little does she know that he is cheating on her with my ex-wife Jessica poor girl she has no idea who he really is”
And this:
“I was there a few months back with her when he called her on her phone”
Then this one:
“Alex Rodriguez stop being a piece of shit stop cheating on Jennifer Lopez”
And then Jose went all kinds of crazy:
“Alex Rodriguez I challenge you to a boxing match or an MMA match anytime you want. I am willing to take a polygraph to prove that what I'm saying about Alex Rodriguez is 100% accurate”
Canseco had me, because I can see A-Rod being a cheater, right up until the boxing challenge. Now it seems it’s all about Jose being thirsty for press … and maybe a shot with his ex-wife?
College admissions scam artist, and now out-of-work actress, Lori Loughlin was allowed to keep her passport when she turned herself into the FBI and was charged with bribing officials to get her two moronic daughters into USC.

Lori kept her passport because she had work commitments in Vancouver filming Hallmark movies and her Hallmark series, When Calls the Heart. She told the court that she had filming commitments throughout the rest of the year.

Yeah, not so fast criminal … the Hallmark Channel has issued a hard pass response that Lori Loughlin has been dropped from all Hallmark Channel productions:
“We are saddened by the recent news surrounding the college admissions allegations. We are no longer working with Lori Loughlin and have stopped development of all productions that air on the Crown Media Family Network channels involving Lori Loughlin.”
Along with stopping all current projects, the network will no longer air any content featuring Loughlin.

Ouch; but wait … the producers of Fuller House say they have zero plans to bring her back for the next season.

If only her kids could get a Grade A education and then get jobs to support their mother, but the rumor is out that USC is kicking both of her daughters to the curb.

Karma is a bitch, and right now I love her.

It's Snarkurday!

In Hollywood, every time two women work together, there are always stories of “The Catfights.” Sometimes the stories seem really true—I’m looking at you on Empire, Nia Long—and sometimes they’re nothing but air.

Before Stepmom came out in 1998, there were rumors that costars Susan Sarandon and Julia Roberts hated working with each other; both women denied the stories, with Julia calling them “boring.” In fact, Julia, at the time, said she’d wished someone had started the rumor that she and Sarandon were, um, well, f**king.

Cut to this year, with Sarandon working on Feud: Bette and Joan, and the rumors rising that she and costar Jessica Lange hate one another.  Susan was Tweeting about Feud recently and talked about the ALLEGED feud with Lange, and then twenty-year-old ALLEGED feud with Roberts. She said the rumor about Roberts was false and was started by her publicist to drum up buzz about the film. And then she tackled the ALLEGED feud with Jessica Lange:
“The #1 question I get in interviews is whether Jessica & I get along. Jess & I not only got along great during filming, we’re now dating”
And then added, because you know how people believe The Twitter:
“…I mean, staying in touch. She’s one of the reasons I agreed to do the series. Working with brilliant actors only makes you better.”
Look, the rumors about Roberts and Sarandon started because they were playing two women who, at first, did not get along, and the rumors about Lange and Sarandon started because they’re playing Crawford and Davis, two women who, well, truly did not get along.

Not every catfight is real ... unless it involves Nia Long.

Just sayin’.
Now, this is high-larious!

Back in 2015 Shia LaBeouf was in a movie called Man Down in which he played a US Marine stuck in Afghanistan while his wife cheats on him with his best friend.

Man Down—which has yet to be released in America—was shown at a single theater in the UK over the weekend, and made a total of £7 ... or roughly $8.70 ... meaning one ticket was sold.

Ow.
Harry Macklowe, a New York developer, is willing to give up half of his $2 billion fortune just to end his messy divorce case—and he’s laughing and skipping about it.

Outside a Manhattan courtroom this week, Macklowe giggled as he told reporters that he was handing his wife, Linda, half of his worth, $1 billion, just so she’ll go away and let him get on with his new love, French mistress Patricia Landeau.

And interestingly enough, Linda has yet to agree to the $1 billion Go Away settlement, and he entertained reporters with a Henny Youngman-style, Take My Wife Please, comedy routine and suggested reporters check out the stand-up routines he’s posted on Old Jews Telling Jokes.

Linda, though, is the only one not laughing, having filed for divorce in July after learning that Harry had put his mistress up in one of his apartments less than a mile away from their home.

Rule # 1: keep the mistress away from the wife.

Rule # 2: when the spouse offers you a billion to go away, go away.
Folks are always saying models are dumb, but, c’mon, they’re rude, too.

When supermodels Cara Delevingne, Helena Christensen and Coco Rocha went to see “Hamilton” last week, their theater etiquette was almost non-existent.

First, while drinks were allowed in the audience at the Richard Rodgers Theatre, one model insisted at the America Express Platinum-sponsored event:
“We can drink inside and do whatever we want because they rented the whole theater.”
Well, yeah, maybe sip a cocktail but these gals were also talking during the show and taking photographs of the production. And one model actually said:
“We need tequila to stay awake.”
Cuz models are dumb ... and rude.
Back in 2013, Amber Heard worked on a movie with Billy Bob Thornton called London Fields; it has never been released, and so I wonder, if it was, would it sell more than one ticket? 

We may never know, because it appears no one will ever see the film as things are getting messy.

Christopher Hanley filed suit against Heard for not honoring her contract by following the script and for not promoting the film upon completion; but, to his credit, he dropped his suit earlier this year.

But now Amber has counter-sued, claiming Hanley and his wife, Roberta, who wrote the script, filmed explicit nude scenes with her body double after she completed filming. Amber claims Christopher and Roberta—whom she calls a “lascivious and sexploitive couple”—filmed several secret nude scenes, including an “explicit pornographic sex scene” with her body double without her knowledge.

See, Amber had specific restrictions regarding nude scenes when she signed on to do the film and never agreed to the scenes in question. So, the scenes by the body double, naturally suggest that it was Amber being all porn-star-riffic when she was not.

But, to be fair, the porn scenes never made into the final, as yet unreleased film, but it appears the Hanley’s made add them to a special, most likely unseen, “producer’s cut” later on.

At any rate, is it just me, or does Amber seem to do more suing that acting these days?

Just sayin’.
Harrison Ford just might be the new Lindsay Lohan ... or at least he Lohan’d his way out of big trouble over his recent airplane screw-up.

The FAA has ruled that they won’t take away Ford’s pilot’s license, or even fine him, for landing his plane on the taxiway instead of a runway at John Wayne Airport back in February.

Just like Lohan getting off with a slap on the wrist for driving drunk, Ford gets a spanking for flying the wrong way at an airport.
And now, let’s end with One-Ticket-Movie-Star, Shia LaBeouf. He’s been a hot mess, a la Lohan, for a while now, but it seemed like he was getting his act, if not his acting, together, until ...
This week when he went into a rage at the staff of a Jerry’s Deli in L.A. Witnesses say he was downing beer after beer for about three hours and then staggered over to Pinz bowling alley—which is connected to Jerry’s—and pitched a fit about ... French fries.

Apparently, though the bartender kept serving him brewskis, he refused to give Shia and fries and LaBeouf LaBlewUp.

Shia doesn’t only lose it about French fries, he ALLEGED that the bartender wanted to hit him in the head with a bottle of Grey Goose—why waste good vodka?—and so he called the bartender a “fucking racist bitch.”

No one knows why he said that, unless he thinks the bartender only serves French Fries to the French ... or Grey Goose to Grey Geese.

Anyway, to add insult to injury, and to make it all seem more funny, LaBeouf was removed from Pinz in his rented bowling shoes and then had to go back inside to retrieve his regular shoes.

Talk about a walk of shame.
