Don Johnson Kelley Phleger

DON JOHNSON’S LIFE TURNED OUT BETTER THAN ANYONE EXPECTED

Don Johnson and his wife Kelley Phleger are in Paris while his daughter Dakota JohnsonDON JOHNSON is there filming passionate scenes for Fifty Shades Darker in a hotel near the Eiffel Tower. He doesn’t visit the set WHILE she’s working – they get together later. Miami Vice star Don has been happily married to Kelley for a surprisingly long time – 17 years – and they have 3 kids together. We remember back in the day when Don was between wives and he and Barbra Streisand had a big romance! Imagine that! They even recorded a song together. We didn’t expect THAT one to last. Don starred last year in the prime time soap “Blood & Oil” and – who knew – he’s considered to be one of the wealthiest actors in Hollywood!

Garry Marshall Thanks for the Memories

GARRY MARSHALL JUST WANTED TO MAKE PEOPLE LAUGH

We felt more than a pang of sadness when we learned that Garry Marshall died yesterday. We loved his TV shows: The Odd Couple, Happy Days, and especially Laverne & Shirley. Not to mention his best movie – Pretty Woman. All his productions had things in common: they were all fun but uplifting stories about human nature. He really enjoyed people and their eccentricities. While working for Star magazine, I had the pleasure of meeting Garry once in the green room of a daytime talk show. We were both guests waiting to be called on camera and I was a bit nervous because sometimes celebrities aren’t so friendly to tabloid reporters. But as soon as Garry spotted me, he sat down beside me and started asking questions about my job- he was fascinated. And he was funny and charming. An exceptionally nice man who made the world a better place.
