WILL A KARDASHIAN OR JENNER APPEAR ON HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME?

It’s a race to the BOTTOM for the Kardashians and Jenners – the bottom of Hollywood Blvd. that is! Family members Kris, Caitlin, Kim and Khloe are obsessed to see who can be the first the get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. While Kourtney, Kendall, Kylie and Rob couldn’t care less about the honor, the other four are scheming to be the first to land a star. When they first starting making lots of money, they even made a bet that whoever got their star first, would collect $1 million from the other three. Although Caitlin has been pretty much ostracized from the rest of the group, the bet still stands. Here’s the interesting part: Caitlin was Bruce when the bet first started, and technically could wind up with a star under either name.

Hollywood Reality Show Talk Show

MIKE PENCE IS GIVING HOLLYWOOD A SECOND GLANCE

Could Mike Pence go Hollywood? According to an insider, now that he’s suspended his presidential campaign, the former VP is focused on the next chapter of his career and has hired an agent to get him jobs. Before he announced his bid for the White House, Mike was quietly approached about appearing on Dancing With The Stars, and while flattered, his religious beliefs wouldn’t allow him to dance with anyone other than his wife. While that show is off the table, Mike is open to most anything else – including hosting a conservative talk show or even a reality show based on his family.

Hollywood Opportunities Taylor Swift Travis Kelce

DOORS ARE OPENING RIGHT AND LEFT FOR TRAVIS KELCE

Travis Kelce has become a household name thanks to his new romance with Taylor Swift, and he’s been bitten again by the Hollywood bug! It’s not well known, but early in his football career Travis starred in a reality show, Catching Kelce where 50 women (one from each state) competed for his affections. The show only lasted 8 episodes and Travis never found love, so he gave up his entertainment ambitions and focused on football. Thanks to his romance with Taylor, Hollywood is calling once again! He recently told his new agents at CAA that he’s ready for more opportunities away from sports. And that’s not all- he recently hired an acting coach to help him hone his skills!

Amelia Hamlin College Hollywood Influencer Kids

AMELIA HAMLIN: 20 GOING ON 35

Whoa. It was a jolt when we saw this photo of Amelia Hamlin (Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin’s daughter) because she does NOT look like the average 20 year old. Does Hollywood make girls grow up faster? Sure, she’s beautiful, but most college-age girls look a lot less serious and vampy. Remember, Amelia broke up with 35 year old Scott Disick not long ago, so maybe he influenced her. It seems like an awful lot of Hollywood’s second generation kids are skipping college and using their famous last names to become influencers on social media and it’s a shame they have to miss the college experience and grow up so fast…

BTS Butter Hollywood James Corden

BTS SANG AND DANCED IN THE STREET IN HOLLYWOOD

We drive past the busy Hollywood intersection in front of CBS on Beverly Blvd almost every day, but today the whole block was closed off for filming while honking cars waited on all sides. Big AMA winners BTS, dressed in black and yellow, took over the block dancing under the direction of Late Late Show host James Corden, who joined in the dance himself. Those big yellow letters above spelled out BUTTER- the record-breaking song by the group. Total hysteria in the neighborhood was avoided because BTS pretty much danced in a hurry and quickly departed.

coronavirus Fashion Hollywood Paparazzi Starlet

EVEN A PANDEMIC CAN’T DETER A HOLLYWOOD STARLET

There is a group of women in Hollywood who seem to LIVE for the paparazzi and will do almost anything to get their attention. On a sunny day you might see one in a sexy outfit walking her dog, but sunny days have been few and far between. Some of these potential pin-ups are even friendly with a specific photographer who will follow them around, hoping to get photos they can sell. These attention-seeking starlets are clever, and one (Blanca Blanco) dressed up in this creative outfit to go shopping, knowing she would turn heads in the supermarket. She had very little competition.

Henry Willson Hollywood Jim Parsons Rock Hudson Ryan Murphy

JIM PARSONS MIGHT SURPRISE YOU IN “HOLLYWOOD”

Here’s something to look forward to: Ryan Murphy’s series about the golden age of Hollywood (called Hollywood) debuts on Netflix May 1, and it looks like FUN. The series features celebrity characters of the era intermixing with fictional characters. The Big Bang Theory’s Jim Parsons has the juicy role of Henry Willson– he was the gay talent agent responsible for all those he-man hunks in the fifties. Henry discovered and renamed his stable of handsome guys including Rock Hudson, Tab Hunter, Rory Calhoun, Troy Donahue, Guy Madison, etc. Some, but not all, the actors were also gay. Henry ended up selling stories to Confidential magazine about some of his clients in order to suppress a gay story about his biggest client Rock Hudson.

For the past 30 years, Joe has lived at the Jersey Shore in an 8 bedroom 8 bathroom mansion. A few weeks ago, Joe put his home on the market for 6.5 million and he admits he has finally decided to move the sunny Los Angeles where he can play golf year around.

Hollywood Marilyn Monroe Vandalism Walk of Fame

THANK YOU TO WHOEVER STOLE THAT MARILYN MONROE STATUE!

Since it appeared in 1994, we have been appalled by this monstrosity that apparently passes for “public art.” The gaudy metallic gazebo is located at the important intersection of Hollywood Blvd and La Brea, intended as some kind of “gateway” to Hollywood. We always assumed there was some sort of political corruption between whoever paid for it and the artist. The embarrassing “art” depicts five statues of actresses in a highly sexualized and disrespectful manner. Whoever vandalized this nightmare should be rewarded, and hopefully the Hollywood chamber of commerce will re-think this situation and install a more appropriate piece of art.
