Paula Abdul SHOULD look happy – money just keeps piling up in her bank account. TWO Las Vegas casinos are in a bidding war to obtain a talent and variety show she’s pitching. Paula plans to produce a music and dance extravaganza similar to the Cirque du Soliel, but SHE will only appear occasionally onstage. According to the Enquirer, she’s been talking to The Venetian hotel and Steve Wynn’s Encore and both are offering tens of millions of dollars for her services. The rich get richer.

Janet Charlton’s Hollywood Site Almost Live!

Filled Under: Punk > Ramones

Thank you all for your patience. Janet searched high and low for new web assistance. During the middle of converting her Movable Type site into WordPress, her old site went down. We had nothing to do with that, but it added pressure, that’s for sure! We’re still fine-tuning it, but we’re very proud of our accomplishments. We restored comments, photos, entries, and made it easier to find info. Please continue to write Janet with your suggestions, tips and whatev. The best is yet to come!

HOW CUTE WAS JOAN JETT IN 1977!

The more you look at the 1977 Brad Elterman photo of Joan Jett, the easier it is to see why she cast Kristen Stewart to play herself in “The Runaways.” When the old photo was taken, Joan probably WAS a teenage runaway. She’s pictured on the corner of Hollywood and Highland, which has actually changed a lot more than SHE has. And those are some shoes she’s rockin.’

TWO WHEELS ARE ENOUGH FOR LORI PETTY

Lori Petty (“A League of their Own” and “Tank Girl”) is taking no chances today – she’s riding her bike instead of driving. She earned herself a DUI a few weeks ago when she had a minor collision in her car with a skateboarder. Lori is very low key – almost unrecognizable – in her yellow glasses and baggy clothes as she runs errands in Santa Monica.

Do we really need an excuse to post another photo of Robert Pattinson? His white shirt, tie, and suit is reason enough. We don’t see him dressed up like that very often. He’s filming “Remember Me” and seems to make any ordinary outfit highly memorable.

BRUNO TAKES ON MATADORS IN MADRID

Another day, another “Bruno” premier. Sacha Baron Cohen obviously has planned an appropriately costumed stunt for the movie’s opening in every major city. First is was the Buckingham Place guards at the UK premier. Above, he was in Madrid, in anatomically correct bull drag, surrounded by sexy matadors. We love his showmanship. What’s he got in store for the USA?

We were struck by this photo of Evan Ross, 20, because his expression is so reminiscent of his mother Diana Ross. He’s pictured here at pregnant Kendra Wilkinson and Hank Baskett’s engagement party at Guys and Dolls. Evan is with his lingerie model girlfriend Cora Skinner – he was not denying rumors in April that they were secretly married, but it doesn’t seem to be true. He DOES, however, have five or six movies coming out soon.

Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Jerry Ferrara had a sad and passionate breakup scene curbside at LAX, but it wasn’t real life. They were filming a segment for Jerry’s show “Entourage.” Last season, Jamie guest starred on Entourage playing herself, and Jerry’s character Turtle developed a crush on her. The plotline drifted into real life and they’ve been dating ever since.

The countdown begins. Rihanna is scheduled to testify in court against her (ex? we’re not so sure…) boyfriend Chris Brown next Monday on June 22. Chris’s lawyer failed to get the date postponed so the show must go on, and it will be QUITE a drama. Meanwhile Rihanna is still in New York – she’s pictured here leaving her hotel with considerable fanfare. Judging by those red pointed nails, she’s sharpening her claws for SOMETHING.

Just when you start to think Mickey Rourke is beginning to look more normal – almost like his old self – he surprises you! He showed off considerable cleavage while hanging with his buddies at Cristoni Pizzeria in Beverly Hills. Actually, his pecs appear pumped to the max and we’re betting he’s taking some type of “supplements” with that Diet Coke.

Soon-Yi looks WAY more interested in the merchandise at Cartier than her husband Woody Allen does. The pair also window shopped at Chanel and Van Cleef & Arpels in Paris, but they ended up making purchases in an American bookstore. Woody is considering making his next movie in Paris, and hopes to take advantage of new tax incentives for filmmakers. Little known fact: he speaks French.

We love seeing Joan Jett and Kristen Stewart hanging out together as they prepare for “The Runaways.” Kristen is soaking up Joan’s personality and metamorphosizing into playing Joan in the movie. She was hand-picked by producer Jett and they’ve been spending a lot of time in a recording studio. Maybe Kristen will actually sing.

Sacha Baron Cohen went all out and led a scantily clad all-male group dressed as Buckingham Palace guards to the London premier of his movie “Bruno.” His fiancee Isla Fisher discreetly arrived separately, dressed fashionably, and avoided the hi-jinks. Cohen goes to great extremes to publicize his films and they more than live up to the hype. ” Bruno” is getting rave reviews in Europe.

It's two of our favorite old-timers in one photo: Frankie Valli (“Walk Like a Man”) and Tom Jones (”Thunderball.“) Both gained fame in the swingin’ 60’s, and showed up at a Friars Club award event in New York. To their credit, they are both still performing in concert and you can probably see them in your city this summer. We love ‘em both.

IF BRAD IS MISSING, ANGELINA MIGHT FIND HIM AT THE BRISTOL MUSEUM

Filled Under: Art > Banksy > Brad Pitt > Bristol Museum

article-1192595-banksy.jpg
Our favorite subversive graffiti artist Banksy suddenly unveiled a show of over a hundred pieces secretly installed at the Bristol Museum in the UK. It’s his largest show ever, and most of the creations were never shown before in his country. (Brad Pitt is among his celebrity collectors.) There are lines around the block to see his humerous and inventive show – one memorable work is a photo of tragic starving African children and one is wearing a t-shirt that says “I Hate Mondays.” Also featured is a thought provoking sculpture that looks like a living breathing Cheetah but the other side reveals it has been made into a fur coat. People walk out of the show laughing and raving about it. Wish we were there.

Chastity Bono, who prefers to be called Chaz from now on, seems to be taking the furor over her sex reassignment completely in stride. She’s nonchalant as she (or is it he? Is she considered male already?) goes about her business in West Hollywood. Chaz is taking care of herself – she visited the Body Well clinic on Santa Monica Blvd. The world is waiting to hear all about her mother Cher and her brother Elijah’s reaction to the news.

Jeff Goldblum, 56, refuses to grow up, when it comes to women. He’s been married twice, engaged two other times, and his girlfriends’ average age continues to be somewhere in their twenties while he moves blithely into his fifties. Jeff’s most recent acquisition is Tania Raymonde, 21, a young actress most famous for playing the role of Alex Rousseau on “Lost.” Playful Jeff is never too mature for a romantic smooch in the street.

Only on a “reality” show like “The Real Housewives of Orange County” would you see a woman like Gretchen Rossi hefting trash bags full of castoffs to be sold at her own garage sale. Certainly the event was lovingly filmed for the popular series. To make the sale seem even more unlikely, Gretchen’s boyfriend Slade Smiley (who was engaged to another O.C. housewife not long ago) helped out. Slade and Gretchen appear to have a passionate desire for fame in common. Gretchen is best known for being an O.C. Housewife WITHOUT implants.

Janet Charlton's Hollywood Whodunit

This A List Hollywood star had had public battles with drug abuse. He seems to have put it all behind him and settled into a successful career and happy home life. What his wife doesn't know is that he has started quietly smoking pot with his teenage son and his son's buddies. (The scene reminds of Ryan O'Neal's early indiscretions with his kids.) The actor doesn't see any harm in it, but friends who know are worried.

And don't pass up the rest of our Hollywood Whodunit? blind items. CLICK HERE! for more.

What do you think of that

It happened in 2000: Believe it or not, there's a drawback to being Brad Pitt's wife. Before they wed, Jennifer Aniston had her own separate medicine cabinet full of expensive moisturizers, line preventers, masks, and everything necessary to keep skin perky. Now that they're married, Brad's discovered Jennifer's beauty stash and he helps himself. Jennifer's happy that he's concerned about his skin but hates to find her stuff missing. So she spent $2000 on various skin products for Brad's bathroom.

So, what do you think of that?! DO TELL!
