Kate Hudson may be appreciated by The Yankees, but baseball fans aren’t so thrilled with her. Our clever colleague CJ at the Star Tribune told us that Kate was seated in the stands at The Dome in Minnesota, cheering on A-Rod, but became very irritated when fans started noticing her. Unaccustomed to seeing beautiful actresses, locals stared and some approached her for photos or autographs. Kate frowned and avoided communicating with them. Eventually cops were assigned to stand at the end of her row and keep people away. An observer in the crowd noted that if Kate wanted to be left alone, she should have sat in a private suite – not in the middle of a raucous crowd. Meanwhile the Yankees slaughtered the Minnesota Twins.

AMY WINEHOUSE AND KELLY OSBOURNE: ODD COUPLE

Kelly Osbourne looks like a schoolteacher next to Amy Winehouse as they walk into The Roxy for Perez Hilton’s party Friday night. Once inside, both of these bad girls had incidents with security guards. Kelly was caught crouched on the kitchen floor pouring herself drinks from the bar supplies and she was reprimanded. Amy is still having problems with men – she ran up to a guard complaining “That asshole over there keeps bugging me and I want him THROWN OUT now!” The guard asked her to point out the offensive guy. She did and he said “I can’t kick him out – that’s John Stamos- he’s an invited guest!” “John WHO?” she was heard muttering. Oh, and Paris Hilton demanded to have the bathroom blocked off so she could use it alone. The manager wouldn’t allow it and – perhaps because of her attitude – no one bothered to tell Paris that there was a private VIP bathroom available upstairs.

AMY WINEHOUSE: SHOWS NO MERCY

Filed Under: Amy Winehouse > Attitude > Cisco Adler

Amy Winehouse has little use for Hollywood men! The hot UK singer performed March 19 at the Roxy on Sunset Strip and the male-dominated audience couldn’t get enough of her. After the show there was a party for her at the private club upstairs On the Rox. Again, it was mostly men focused on Amy -she barely had a moment to relax. Cisco Adler (son of music mogul Lou Adler and ex-boyfriend of Mischa Barton) turned ON the charm for Amy, who was unimpressed. He insisted on getting her shots – she asked for two Patron shots and said “I”ll be right back” He stood by the two shots on the bar for the LONGEST time before realizing she had NO intention of returning, and looked embarrassed. Many guys tried to hit on her, but Amy resisted. One guy from Warner Brothers went up to her, drunkenly slobbering that he LOVED her music and he gushed “You’re HOT!” She responded by SPITTING at him – she turned her back and walked away. Amy left the Hollywood dudes in tatters, and they loved every minute of it.

MICHAEL JACKSON TAKES THE MONEY AND RUNS

Filed Under: Attitude > Janet Jackson > Japan > Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson took all that money he got from kids in Japan who paid to meet him and flew to London where he checked into the painfully expensive Jumeirah Carlton Tower Hotel under the name “Ms. Jackson” (We think he hoped to be mistaken for Janet.) He occupied the Presidential Suite (around $5000 per night) with his kids, but took up the entire top floor with his entourage, and brought ten beefy security guards to protect him and make sure no one came up in the elevators. He even brought his own waiter and didn’t want any strangers near him. Hotel staffers were terrified of doing the wrong thing. And last we heard, Ms. Jackson didn’t leave any tips.

PARIS HILTON BARGES IN

Innocent people standing in line at Pinkberry in West Hollywood- where there’s ALWAYS a line of at least 20 – were taken aback the other night when Paris Hilton descended on the place. They saw her marching across the street followed by a dozen flashing paparazzi and the crowd just stepped BACK and let her walk right to the front of the line! She ordered a number of containers to go and everyone waited with mouths agape while flashbulbs popped around her. She paid and walked out without comment, and NOT ONE person in line complained! No WONDER she has that feeling of entitlement!

XZIBIT: NOT SO HIGH ROLLER

Filed Under: Attitude > Bad Tipper! > Xzibit

Pimp My Ride star Xzibit brought ten people to Arnie Morton’s for steak dinners not long ago. He flashed a diamond encrusted watch that looked like it was worth half a million dollars. The group drank and ate their way up to a $1700 tab which Xzibit paid, but he left a shockingly miserly tip of $100 for the hardworking server! Here’s a guy who can pimp a car but can’t tip a waiter.

LAUREN GRAHAM: NO RESPECT

Filed Under: Attitude > Lauren Graham

Gilmore Girl Lauren Graham is not as sweet as she looks. A source on her show told us the actress is notoriously condescending to background players and she’s developed a bad reputation with them. Lauren isn’t popular with extras because not only does she avoid them like the plague (“Keep those people away from me!”) but she has no regard for their feelings. When she noticed a young female extra wistfully eyeing the craft service table she hissed “Get these maggots away from the food table!” (Hard to believe – but a reliable witness swears it’s true!) The girl was humiliated and when another extra expressed shock at Lauren’s contemptuous comment – both lost their jobs. Lauren may be the ‘boss” but extras whisper that she’ll never get a SAG award because she’s so disliked.

WORKOUT'S JACKIE WARNER: CENTER OF ATTENTION

Filed Under: Attitude > Jackie Warner

The last person you’d expect to find creating a nuisance at the Equinox gym in
West Hollywood is the star of Bravo’s “Workout” series Jackie Warner. But, according to a gym source, Jackie (who is sort of a muscular Scarlett Johansson type) likes to arrive LATE at the busiest 7 AM spin class (featuring lots of celebs like Nicole Kidman) and naturally she creates a stir getting herself settled in. (She seems to enjoy having all eyes upon her ) That’s NOT good gym etiquette. Jackie then proceeds to TALK to her friends during the class and ignore the instructor. To top it off she usually leaves early and disrupts the class again. Other gym members are surprised by her bad manners – especially since she has her OWN gym in Beverly Hills, AND she charges $400 per hour for personal training!

LARRY KING: GOING UP?

Filed Under: Attitude > Larry King

For YEARS Larry King has taped his TV show at the CNN building on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood. But if you ask other people who work in the building what Larry’s like, they say they have never encountered him. How is that possible? It was explained that when Larry arrives every day, his “assistants” (usually eager-to-please young women) run ahead of him and shoo everyone OUT of the elevator SO HE CAN RIDE ALONE – both coming and going. Apparently Larry feels he’s above making small talk with strangers in the elevator.

MEAN GIRLS

Filed Under: Attitude > Lindsay Lohan

An innocent visitor from England (who also happens to be hot looking) told us this amusing story. Recently an LA friend took him to a birthday party at Guy’s. The Brit knew nothing about celebrity karaoke. They had a few drinks and his mate pointed to a group of girls, one of them had her back to them. He said “There’s my friend Lindsay – go get her attention. The English guy strolled up behind “Lindsay,” tapped her on the shoulder and said hello. She turned around and the guy was horrified to realize it was fierce looking Lindsay Lohan. (He said “I had a People magazine cover flash in my mind!”) Lohan gave him a snort and a contemptuous side glance and bolted RIGHT away, leaving her friends slack-jawed. The girlfriends looked the guy up and down like he had just walked out of a high school science class, and one said in a thick valley girl accent “EWWW- YOU’RE WEARING A SWEATER!” The embarrassed stranger shrank back and punched his friend for setting him up. SO high school.

WHOSE PARTY IS IT, ANYWAY?

Filed Under: Attitude > Hugh Hefner > Paris Hilton

Girls outnumbered guys by around 4 to 1 at Hugh Hefner’s Halloween bash at the mansion Saturday night. Hef held court at the main table by the dancefloor where he had a constant assortment of people lined up to greet him. Paris Hilton noticed that Hef and his three girlfriends Holly, Bridget, and Kendra (The Girls Next Door) were the center of partygoers attention, and THAT would never do! She leaped up on a nearby table and started dancing above the crowd in her skimpy white costume. Eyes swiveled in HER direction (just the way Paris likes it) and Hef’s girlfriends looked askance at Paris’s antics. Moments later, a Playboy security guard “helped” Paris DOWN from the tabletop, despite her protestations, and she reluctantly drifted back into the crowd. Hef’s girlfriends just smiled.

YOU LOOKIN' AT ME?

Filed Under: Attitude > Janice Dickinson

Innocent bystanders in Starbucks in Beverly Hills couldn’t HELP but notice Janice Dickinson was in the house because she’s SO loud on her cellphone. Even though she was very casually dressed in Ed Hardy sweats, Ugg boots, no makeup, and tousled hair, Janice just HAD to have all eyes upon her. She loudly proclaimed into the phone “Darling, I told you, I AM the first Supermodel!” ( We always wonder what Twiggy thinks when she hears Janice makes that claim. Of course she does get the last laugh – Twiggy replaced Janice on America’s Top Model. ) Janice looked around to see if she was being noticed, and continued with her top volume self – promoting conversation about the fact that she’s now filming the SECOND season of her own reality series The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency. Now EVERYBODY knows.

No Means No

Filed Under: Attitude > Bruce Willis > What do you think of that

In 2002 some people hadn’t learned about approaching some celebrities…
Too much caffeine? Bruce Willis walked out of a Coffee Bean in Westwood and a young woman ran up and asked if she could take a picture with him. He said no as he walked to his waiting car. The gal whined “Please! Just one quick picture!”
Bruce snapped “What don’t you understand about the word NO!”
The woman was taken aback “I always thought you were so NICE!”
Bruce put his face up to hers and hissed “I’m not here to entertain you – put your damn camera away.” With that, he got in his car and left.

FINGER SNAPPER

Filed Under: Attitude > Faye Dunaway

When the employees at Whole Foods in West Hollywod see Faye Dunaway walk in the door they “scatter like cockroaches” one of them told us. Nobody wants to wait on her. Faye is VERY demanding -especially at the deli case. Here’s an example: When a server waiting on her was wrapping up an item he turned to another employee to tell him something and Faye ferociously snapped her FINGERS in the air scolding “I NEED YOUR FULL ATTENTION!” She asked her deli person for a pound of turkey breast. Sliced medium. After all the meat was cut she examined it and frowned “NO – that’s too THICK ” and wouldn’t buy it! THAT”S why the help runs for cover.

Punch Drunk

Filed Under: Anna Nicole Smith > Attitude > Crimes and Misdemeanors > What do you think of that

In 1998, the gorgeous Anna Nicole was provocatively seated in the lobby drinking glass after glass of champagne when she started “harrassing” a Middle Eastern man. According to a witness, she loudly taunted him with lewd remarks – the least of which was “C’mere baby and gimme some lovin’.”
Other hotel guests complained about her behavior and the bartender cut her off. THAT made her furious and she stormed out to get her car. The valet offered her a limo and suggested she shouldn’t drive. Irate Anna threw a tantrum and the bellman rushed over to calm her. She punched him in the nose. Hotel security had to wrestle her face first into the mud to get her under control until cops came, cuffed her, and took her away!

There'll Always Be Paris

Filed Under: Attitude > Crimes and Misdemeanors > Paris Hilton > What do you think of that

The headlines today may feature Paris Hilton’s DUI, but in April of this year here’s what we were saying:

Paris Hilton is spinning out of control: She’s recklessly throwing herself at men and smooching guys in public. She was once a polite well mannered girl but now she’s arrogant, loud, and demanding. She’s always reminding people “Do you know who I AM?” when she butts to the front of bathroom lines. She’s greedier than ever about freebies. Promoters wince when they see her coming. She dumped the once beloved Tinkerbell with her parents. He was cast off like last week’s handbag. She’s got plenty of money but can’t get her boyfriend Niarchos to marry her – or anyone else so far. She showed up at Hef’s recent birthday party in an absurd tastelessly skimpy outfit and onlookers whispered that her body looked bad- out of shape, bumpy, in need of the gym. She’s partying more than ever till all hours. Is she headed for rehab?

Hot and Cold

Filed Under: Attitude > Daryl Hannah > Quentin Tarantino > What do you think of that

While Quentin Tarantino is cooling off in Iceland whenever he has the chance, in 2003 Daryl Hannah’s new romance had already hit a snag!
She had been keeping company with her temperamental Kill Bill director Quentin Tarantino and they had a movie date at an upscale Hollywood theater. After they bought tickets the pair dawdled in the lobby cafe and tried to enter the movie ten minutes after it started. The usher refused – theater policy is no admittance after the film begins. Quentin had a hissy fit and when the usher wouldn’t budge he demanded the manager. Daryl looked embarrassed and uncomfortable while Quentin yelled at the manager about unfair rules. The manager politely acknowledged Tarantino but stood by the no entry policy. Quentin pulled wide-eyed Daryl by the hand and stalked out yelling “When my new movie Kill Bill comes out – IT”S NOT PLAYING HERE!

DON'T BOTHER HIM

Filed Under: Attitude > Tommy Lee

Supernova drummer Tommy Lee was catching a smoke, sitting outside an airline building at the Burbank airport deep in conversation with a pretty young girlfriend and his pushy assistant. A steady stream of people came outside to light up and each time the protective assistant jumped up and blocked Tommy, presumptuously waving the outsiders away, insisting “No autographs!” The smokers were irked and finally after a number of them had been shooed away from Tommy, one informed the overzealous assistant “Excuse me but this is the airport employees smoking area – we come here to SMOKE, not to get anybody’s autograph!” and Tommy’s assistant FINALLY shut up. Is Rockstar Supernova giving the usually down-to-earth rocker a big head?

ONE STEP CLOSER TO REHAB

Filed Under: Andy Dick > Attitude

Yuppie looking Andy Dick invaded Tiny’s K.O. – a punk rock dive bar on Hollywood Blvd., and his behavior was decidedly WEST Hollywood. Fortified by many substances, Andy proceeded to squeal “Oh, you’re SOOO cute! Wanna drink?” and he bought drinks for anyone who looked at him. Boozed up Andy hit on the skinheads, mohawked rockers, and a few girls. Incredibly, he started groping and tryng to KISS the fiercely tattooed skinheads. One roared “There’s not enough booze in the world to make me kiss YOU! – grab me again and I’ll WHACK you” Andy chirped “I LOVE to get hit!” Randy Andy topped off his rampage by giving unwanted lapdances to outraged rockers. Nobody got seriously mad because Andy WAS paying for all the drinks. When he collected his credit card before leaving, Andy announced “I’m coming back to BUY this bar!”

Monkey Makes Him Mad

Filed Under: Attitude > Burt Reynolds > What do you think of that

An amusing confrontation in 2003: Burt Reynolds lost his temper at a wisecracking monkey puppet at the Atlanta film Festival and lunged at and choked the offending Phineas J Monkey. Reynolds was being honored at the event and the monkey (operated by Lucky Yates) was co-master of ceremonies. Burt was appalled by jokes the simian made about the intelligence of actors Brad Pitt and Keanu Reeves. “Some day Brat Pitt might want to make a movie in this town” the volatile actor declared, before he grabbed the puppet by the neck, grimaced and squeezed. He stopped short of ripping off the puppet’s head and got an apology – not from the monkey – from the festival organizers.
