Superman

SUPERMAN WITH FACIAL HAIR? REALLY?

OK, we were officially HORRIFIED when we saw this publicity photo for the upcoming CW series, Superman & Lois. We are talking about Superman’s rough looking whiskers! It’s bad enough to see men on the street with this unshaven look, but SUPERMAN!!! The Superman character is intended to be clean-cut, an idealized man. Not a shifty gangster. The actor, Tyler Hoechlin, 33, is handsome enough, and he has the shiny black hair and physique. But the whiskers ruin the image. There’s been a lot of talk about the updated Superman costume, but the real issue is the not-so-clean looking face!

Face Mask Hollywood Boulevard Superman

EVEN SUPERMAN IS SUFFERING FROM SOCIAL ISOLATION

Back in the good old days we had some fine specimens of Superman, Johnny Depp’s Pirate of the Caribbean, Frankenstein, and many other famous characters hustling on busy Hollywood Boulevard. Tourists paid them lots of money for photos, so everybody went home happy. This sad looking “Superman” is a sign of the times. Neither his physique nor his costume is very impressive – and he’s making a feeble attempt at selling face masks, not photos! (note that customers are few and far between)

LIAM PAYNE GOT IT ALMOST RIGHT

Now this is a clever and easy-do Halloween costume. Former One Direction boy bander Liam Payne already had a black suit and tie – all he needed was a pair of glasses (in his hand) and a superman t -shirt and he became Clark Kent! (If you recall, Clark Kent used to duck into a phone boot and tear off his suit when he became Superman.) A close shave would have helped a lot, however.

KRIS JENNER IS TICKLED PINK WHEN CAUGHT WITH SUPERMAN

Did Dean Cain know what he was getting into when he and Kris Jenner met for lunch at Cecconi’s? After lunch the former Superman, 48, who has put on a few pounds, looked a bit surprised to see the paparazzi snapping. Of course Kris appeared to be perfectly delighted. Kris, 58, was oddly attired in a white cotton summery dress over tight black leather pants and stiletto boots. They left in separate cars. We can just imagine Kris buzzing on the internet right now – looking for these photos…

SANDRA BULLOCK: IT’S A BIRD, IT’S A PLANE, IT’S LOUIS!

Sandra Bullock picked up her little boy Louis after school, carrying his red rubber boots in case of rain. Her little hero Louis appeared in his adorable Superman raincoat with a cape (Macy’s $50) and he doesn’t mind the damp weather at all.

Auction Comic Nicolas Cage Storage Wars Superman

NICOLAS CAGE SOLD THE FIRST SUPERMAN COMIC FOR TWO MILLION DOLLARS

Nicolas Cage’s life is riddled with idiosyncrasies. A few years ago, he was a regular at high-end auctions in Los Angeles, and he always bought strange stuff like prehistoric rocks for a lot of money. Cage had the first Superman comic framed on his wall for years, but back in 2000 he had so many houses that he lost track and it was stolen. In April,it was recovered when someone bought the contents of an abandoned storage locker (what an episode this would have made for Storage Wars!) and Cage got it back. His comic is exceptionally well preserved and was just auctioned off for $2,161,000 – a new record! He must be kinda broke to part with it.

Gavin Rossdale Gwen Stefani Henry Cavill Lookalike Superman The Tudors

NEW SUPERMAN HENRY CAVILL LOOKS LIKE GAVIN ROSSDALE’S BROTHER

For some reason we were never aware of British actor Henry Cavill who starred on “The Tudors,” so we were surprised to hear he was cast as the new “Superman.” He’s quite a looker and we immediately noted his startling resemblance to another pretty Englishman, Gavin Rossdale. Maybe someday Henry will be costarring in “The Gwen Stefani story.”

DC Comics Edward Cullen Emo Robert Pattinson Superman

SUPERMAN LOOKS A LOT LIKE ROB PATTINSON

DC Comics is introducing a new Superman graphic novel called “Superman: Earth One” and the man of steel has had a modern makeover. The new sexy Superman is 20 years old, he wears hoods and skinny ties and he’s a LOT less muscular. Every hair is NOT in place. He’s no longer the clean cut, fresh faced boy next door like Christopher Reeve – now he’s moody and introspective. Very Emo. In fact, he bears a striking resemblance to Rob Pattinson! (Or Edward Cullen) A movie can’t be far behind.

DEAN CAIN AND HIS MINI-ME SON

Photo Credit: Buzz Foto

Dean Cain and his 7 year old lookalike son Christopher (the only difference is the blonde hair!) had dinner at Nobu in Malibu. Dean is such a great catch and he’s never been married. Christopher’s mom is Dean’s exgirlfriend, Playboy model Samantha Torres. Chris has a cool dad – he’s a former Superman, well educated (a degree from Princeton,) mannerly, handsome, and family oriented. Actually, Christopher is a lucky kid.
