WHOOPS! SOMEBODY TELL JESSICA SIMPSON THAT STILETTOS DON’T MAKE YOU LOOK THINNER

Jessica Simpson came thisclose to falling on her face while lurching into a New York restaurant. Climbing up the curb in seven inch stilettos can be a challenge and her friends found it amusing. We’re guessing Jessica wears these ridiculous shoes in the daytime because they make her feel taller and thinner. Why doesn’t she wear shoes from her own Jessica Simpson collection of manageable heels? The ones she’s wearing probably cost fifteen times what the ones she designs cost…

JENNIFER LOPEZ’S PANTS ARE NOT FALLING DOWN

Look closely – it’s a fashion optical illusion – but it is definitely entertaining. Jennifer Lopez’s belted denim baggy boots are designed to look like her jeans are falling down (at first glance) especially worn just with a white shirt. Jennifer put the outfit together perfectly and we like her sense of humor. We can’t forget to credit Ariana Grande for putting the “no-pants” look on the map – obviously the inspiration for the “pants falling down” look!

BEN STILLER AND CHRISTINE TAYLOR ARE BOTH HAPPIER AS FRIENDS

Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor look happier now than they did most of the 17 years they were married. We get the feeling they’re both happy that they can go home solo. The couple divorced a year ago and have two kids, Olivia, 16, and Quinlin, 13. Workaholic Ben admits that he is “naturally moody.” In fact, he’s been described as “difficult to be around.” Someone who worked on Zoolander with Ben tattled that he “complained incessantly and had tantrums at the crew.” Ben and Christine met for a nice lunch in Manhattan and went their separate ways…

AS IF TOM CRUISE DIDN’T HATE LEAH REMINI ENOUGH

We have no plans to see it, but the fact that Tom Cruise’s latest Mission Impossible epic is a huge success will no doubt bolster public interest in Scientology and boost ratings for Leah Remini’s A&E series Scientology and the Aftermath. Coincidentally or not, we hear that Leah plans to focus on Cruise for the third season of the series. (The church started up its own TV network in March, which has been described as an “extended church infomercial” pointing out the church’s generosity and good deeds.) Because of the Tom Cruise scrutiny, our hero Remini admits she expects the church’s harassment of her will increase accordingly and she’s taking appropriate security measures.

JANELLE MONAE IS THE ESSENCE OF AFROFUTURISM

Janelle Monae is a raging success with her Dirty Computer Tour and got great reviews in Miami Beach. We leap at every opportunity to display her fashion sense. The show is built around her concept of Afrofuturism – an idea Prince would have loved. She’s also in touch with the reality of today and urges everyone in her audience to register to vote in the lobby after the show.

WATCH OUT! CHER’S LIP IMPLANT IS DRIFTING!

Every time we see Cher lately we’ve been wondering what the heck is going on with her lips. The lower lip seems to be enormous and she draws her lipstick on to make it look smaller. The National Enquirer explained it all! Cher got tired of having frequent lip injections in the 90’s and she was one of the first to get permanent lip implants. As she aged, the implant on the bottom sank lower and lower on her chin, giving her that weird look. This unexpected turn of events might make other people think twice about getting that procedure!

YOU WON’T BELIEVE WHAT’S ON LUDACRIS’S BUCKET LIST

Who knew that rapper/actor Ludacris had a raging sweet tooth? No sooner had he finished his show in Honolulu last week than he was gripped by an intense desire for his favorite cookies: Maui Cookie Lady brand is sold at Saks Fifth Ave and they ship, but Ludacris wanted some HOT from the oven. So he chartered a helicopter and flew to the Maui shop to eat his fill. (These decadent cookies are filled with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Oreos, and Snickers.) Ludacris admitted the visit to the cookie shop was on his “bucket list.”

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KATIE HOLMES AND OTHER COMMUTERS IS A BOOK

Commuters got on and off the subway train headed uptown in Manhattan and they were all very busy on their phones. If they weren’t so self-involved they might have noticed they were sitting near a movie star. And the movie star – Katie Holmes– is the only one reading a book instead of staring at her phone! Apparently phone addiction makes it much easier for celebrities to go about their business doing everyday things unnoticed!
Footnote: Katie is reading Slouching Towards Bethlehem by Joan Didion

JONATHAN RHYS MEYERS SHOULD AVOID AIRPORTS AT ALL COSTS

Seems like every time we get some news about Match Point star Jonathan Rhys Meyers, it ‘s all about a drunken outburst at an airport. He’s been in and out of rehabs fighting alcohol and anger issues and both problems are exacerbated when flying. During his last incident starting in Miami he reportedly waved wheelchair passengers out of the way and insisted on boarding first because he was “a first class passenger.” A witness said that during the flight he consumed drink after drink, visited the bathroom over and over, and was so inebriated that he didn’t notice that his pants fell down. Then he pulled out an e-cigarette and when his wife begged him to stop he cursed her and told her he wanted a divorce. Police met him when the plane arrived at LAX and his wife Mara made excuses for him (?) and apologized profusely. He didn’t get arrested, but we pity that wife. And after four or five of these abusive “incidents,” why hasn’t he been banned from flying those airlines?

ADRIEN BRODY: ACTOR TURNED PLAYBOY?

Adrien Brody, 45, was one of the hottest actors in Hollywood a few years ago – did fame go to his head? Seems like AGES since he starred in a movie – the last thing we remember was a role on the TV series Peaky Blinders. We do see lots of photos of Adrien in places like St Tropez cavorting with Russian models. We like the shirt he’s wearing in this photo with Russian model Natasha Poly. And she’s not even his girlfriend – Natasha is a close friend of his girlfriend Lara Lieto (another Russian model!) He seems quite happy with his life of leisure…
