RICKY MARTIN’S FOOT FETISH COULD PAY OFF

Ricky Martin recently made headlines (and raised eyebrows!) when he revealed he has a foot fetish and likes massaging and kissing men’s feet, but was the unexpected reveal part of a bigger plan? According to an insider, Ricky has been working on a line of comfortable yet stylish shoes for men and timed his foot fetish announcement as a precursor to launching the collection. In the early 2000’s, we can remember when Ricky would visit a building a friend of ours lived in. The street would be blocked and he seemed to have more security detail than the president. A few years back, we were very excited when he came to our house to do a magazine photoshoot and interview – he even posed for a pic with me and my Wire Fox Terrier Lulu. Fame can be fleeting, and while he’s managed to stay reasonably relevant, our source says Ricky is turning to footwear as a new source of revenue. He’s seen celebrities like Jessica Simpson earn millions from their shoe lines and hopes to mimic that success.

DON’T ASK PRINCE HARRY ABOUT ROYAL HEALTH PROBLEMS

For those of you hoping the Royal Family rift would end anytime soon, dream on. According to our well placed source, Prince Harry had to sign an ironclad NDA before he was filled in on the details of what’s really going on with his father, King Charles’s health. The Palace has been somewhat vague in releasing specifics on Charles’ condition and treatment. That’s only the tip of the iceberg. Harry is also being kept in the dark on what’s going on with his sister-in-law, Kate Middleton’s recent health crisis and surgery. Apparently the Royals fear Harry has loose lips so they’re keeping details from him. Perhaps he should visit this website if he wants the latest scoops on the Royal Family!

WORST DRESSED THIS WEEK: KRISTEN STEWART

Not that there’s anything wrong with garter belts. But why on earth did Kristen Stewart choose to wear THIS to tape her appearance on the Seth Meyers Show? Creativity and originality are always appreciated, but Kristen doesn’t even look comfortable in this sexy get-up. Interesting (and welcome) that she did not over-do anything in the makeup department – no giant false eyelashes or big shiny lips. And no fake hair blowing in the wind. But the outfit just screams TRYING TOO HARD and we have to vote her worst dressed this week.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Alec Baldwin recently filed a motion to dismiss the charges he’s facing in the 2021 shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, but here’s what we know. Behind closed doors Alec’s legal team is hoping to negotiate a plea deal involving no jail time, a clear record, community service and a HUGE donation. Alec is concerned that a jury found armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed guilty in the case, so he’s secretly done a 180 and instructed his high-priced lawyers to make a deal!

Last Sunday Billie Eilish named dropped her former choir teacher, Mandy Bringham, when she won her second Oscar for Best Original Song for What Was I Made For, from the Barbie movie. Other media outlets tracked down the teacher but only WE will tell you that Billie personally reached out to Mandy days after the historic win, and the two are getting together in the near future. Our source says Billie plans to offer Mandy a job on her team as, what else, a vocal coach.

For reality TV fans, the buzz this week was the final reunion episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and the current state of OG star, Kyle Richard’s marriage to estranged husband Maurico Umansky. We can tell you this tidbit: Despite Kyle not revealing many deets on the reunion, our well placed source says that marriage is kaput and a very friendly divorce is being negotiated. If there’s any divorce drama it will only be manufactured for next season of RHOBH, but the soon-to-be exes have already decided who gets what and may plan to live together as friends for a bit until their youngest daughter Portia turns 18 in two years.

Meghan Markle made headlines when she debuted a new website which she eventually will use to hawk merchandise. Way back in November, we told you that Meghan and Harry were looking at wineries to sell their own wine and this latest venture goes along with that. Meghan hopes to be the next Martha Stewart and build an empire based around her kitchen skills, including her own wine as well as olive oils, jams, cookbooks, etc. Our source adds this tidbit you will only read here – Meghan’s Montecito neighbor and good pal Oprah Winfrey is an angel investor in the project.

JEFF BEZOS MAKES TIME FOR SELF IMPROVEMENT

We’re not sure how we got there, (some speculate steroids, while others insist it was exercise and diet) but Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos has transformed himself over the past years. He went from scrawny to muscular, but that’s only the beginning of his makeover. He recently met with a top Beverly Hills plastic surgeon (his fiancé, Lauren Sanchez recommended this particular doctor) about getting his neck done. While his face is youthful, Jeff fears that he has a turkey neck. The procedure costs approximately $150,000 (pocket change to Bezos) so he’s looking at his schedule to see when he can disappear for two weeks to give him enough time to have the surgery and recover.

WILL KIM KARDASHIAN HIRE KANYE’S NEW WIFE TO MODEL FOR SKIMS?

You’ve all seen this blurry photo of Kim Kardashian and her ex-husband Kanye’s new wife Bianca Censori sitting next to each other at Kanye’s listening party for his new album. Kim is desperately trying to keep the peace with Kanye because they are still at odds over child custody. As we told you, Kanye owns a percentage of Kim’s company SKIMS (he even came up with the catchy name) and now he’s pressuring Kim to feature Bianca in a series of sexy ads for SKIMS. (Is that why he’s been flaunting Bianca in those skimpy outfits?) He insists the ads will generate lots of publicity for the brand and increase sales. So far Kim isn’t sold on the idea, but Kanye is relentless and he won’t give up easily. This photo could indicate that Kim is close to giving in…

PRISCILLA PRESLEY WAS SHOCKED TO MEET DEBORAH PRESLEY


,
Priscilla Presley was signing copies of her coffee-table book ELVIS BY THE PRESLEYS at a recent event in Los Angeles, when who walked in but Deborah Presley Brando! Deborah is apparently the daughter Elvis had with his first love, Barbara Jean Lewis, when he was starting out in the music business – long before he met Priscilla. Elvis helped Barbara out with some money, but they never married. Priscilla has never really acknowledged Deborah or met her. Deborah has also written a book, MEMOIRS OF A STARSEED CHILD – ELVIS, MARLON, CHRISTIAN, AND ME about HER life without her father and her marriage to Christian Brando. Priscilla’s entourage must have flinched when Deborah appeared at Priscilla’s event, but they allowed her to approach Priscilla. Deborah gave Priscilla a copy of HER book and said “I’ve always wanted to meet you!” To her credit, Priscilla was quite gracious and kind to Deborah. Nice to know the two writers were civil, after all these years…

BEYONCE IS JUST ANOTHER CARPOOLING MOM

When you think of carpooling parents you might not think of Beyoncé, but as unbelievable as it sounds, she’s actually one of them. Beyoncé’s kids attend a private school in LA (we aren’t naming the school or the location for privacy) but nonetheless you will love this item. The school has a strict “no nanny” policy – meaning all children MUST be dropped off and picked up by a parent or legal guardian. The pricey school is popular with celebrity parents along with movers and shakers, so Beyoncé has joined a carpool. Either she or Jay Z take turns shuffling a group of kids to school along with a group of other A-list parents. Tuition can run $50,000 per year for the elementary school, but even with the high price tag the rule is set in stone with no exceptions, EVER!

THE OSCARS WANT RYAN GOSLING TO HOST NEXT YEAR

He didn’t walk away with any of the awards, but Ryan Gosling was the night’s big winner at the Oscars. His energetic performance of I’m Just Ken stole the show, and the reviews were unanimous that he hit it out of the ballpark. Producers noticed, and he’s already been offered the opportunity to HOST next year‘s Oscars. According to our source, the Academy wants to go back to a big opening song and dance number like they did in the days when Billy Crystal hosted. After his recent performance, they feel Ryan is the PERFECT candidate, since he can sing dance, tell jokes and act.
