FRENCH ACTOR ALAIN DELON IS NOW 75

We haven’t thought about Alain Delon for decades, but we were reminded by The Huffington Post that Delon celebrated his 75th birthday on November 8. During the 60’s and 70’s Delon was the French version of Johnny Depp. Not only was he drop dead gorgeous, but he had great European style. Envious men everywhere used to insist he was gay, but his many affairs and marriages and children cast doubt on that notion. We do recall seeing him sitting in a cafe at the height of his fame and we were stunned by his extravagant beauty.

France Plastic Surgery Twins

TWINS INSPIRED BY JOCELYN WILDENSTEIN

Is ANYTHING more fascinating than an overdose of plastic surgery? It’s comforting to know this is not just an American indulgence. And this case involves TWINS – another obsession! These freakish looking twins were sexy guys on French TV in the 80’s. Igor and Grichka Bogdanoff had a primetime science fiction series called “Temps X.” They started getting plastic surgery in the 90’s and supposedly had chin and cheek implants and fillers and botox. Now they look like they should get a NEW science fiction series!

Carla Bruni France Height Challenged Nicolas Sarkozy

THE FRENCH PRESIDENT MAKES TOM CRUISE LOOK TALL

French President Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife Carla Bruni voted together in Paris. Rumors of infidelity continue to dog their marriage, but no women (or men) have come forward and sold their “kiss and tell” stories to magazines there, and the First Couple is still together. Did you know he is only 5’5” and always wears lifts in his shoes?

Angelina Jolie Brad Pitt France Maddox

LIKE BRAD AND ANGELINA, MADDOX HAS GROWN ACCUSTOMED TO PAPARAZZI

Maddox gets around. Maybe it pays to be the oldest of the Jolie-Pitt brood because he seems to get around more than the others. He was just in New York the other day playing video games with his dad Brad Pitt. Now he’s in the South of France with Angelina >Jolie and she took him shopping at the local supermarket. Both parents are spending a lot of one-on-one time with him.

France Jack Nicholson

JACK NICHOLSON TWISTS AGAIN LIKE HE DID LAST SUMMER

Jack Nicholson, 72, from having a good time. His yacht is docked in the French Riviera where Jack and his friends stopped to have some fun at a bar. Jack was eyeing some shapely girls when “The Twist” started playing and Jack enthusiastically got into it. He remembers how to twist and managed to do so without throwing his back out. (That girls seems to be doing the Limbo.)

SNOOP DOGG: SIZZLING IN PARIS

This picture should be in the fashion hall of fame – THAT’S how much we love it. Snoop Dogg is walking around the streets of Paris looking like THIS! We haven’t seen a man wearing a shower cap in public since we visited the south side of Chicago in the 1960’s. In those days, black guys were apparently having their hair “conked” (chemically straightened so they could slick it back doo-wop style.) At night they dressed up in bright colored suits from Smokey Joe’s on State Street and they were GORGEOUS. We doubt if Snoop is getting conked – more likely this is a fashion statement for him. Is this his hotel’s shower cap? Is he on his way to get his braids redone? SO many questions. Interesting how he accessorized the plastic cap with a Vuitton bag. Paris must be abuzz.
