Titanic

THIS GUY STARRED IN ONE OF THE BIGGEST MOVIES EVER

Can you guess who this grey bearded gentleman is? No, it’s not Rob Reiner! It’s actually Titanic star Billy Zane. He played the wealthy and pretentious tuxedo-clad aristocrat who was set to marry Rose before she met Jack. It’s been 18 years since Titanic was released and Billy is 48 now and his beard gives him considerable gravitas. It also makes him unrecognizable, so he probably won’t be pestered by Titanic fans any more.

Billionaire Titanic

NOW YOU CAN EXPERIENCE THE LUXURY OF THE TITANIC WITHOUT FEAR OF DROWNING

#titanic

What better time than the 100th anniversary of the sinking of The Titanic, to announce the production of a 21st century exact replica of the iconic cruise ship? Australian billionaire Clive Palmer is so enthralled by The Titanic legend that he’s having a duplicate cruise ship built in China. He’s hired a historical research team to work with architects to exactly reproduce the interior and exterior of the 840 room, 9 deck ship in precisely the same dimensions. Below the water line the ship will feature state of the art engineering and safety. An updated gym (above, the original) and swimming pools will be discreetly included for passengers comfort. Typical cruise ships cost around $500 million to build – this will certainly cost much more. The Titanic II will take the same maiden voyage from England to North America that the original did, and is set for 2016. We’re betting Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet will be invited along for the ride. Make your reservations early.

BILLY ZANE’S LITTLE GIRL AND HER FIRST EASTER

Titanic villainBilly Zane, 46, turned up at The Grove on Easter Sunday looking like a million bucks in a tan suit and fedora. He brought his equally well dressed little girl Eva, 1, and pointed out the Easter Bunny. Eva’s mother is Croatian model Jasmina Hdagha, with whom Billy has been living for over a year.

Avatar Fans Paparazzi Sam Worthington Titanic

AVATAR’S SAM WORTHINGTON DOESN’T OFTEN CAUSE A STIR

Sam Worthington was sexy and gorgeous onscreen in “Avatar,” but in real life he seems to disappear into the woodwork. In person, and even in photos, the Australian actor looks more like a very average person than a movie star. We’re not certain we’d recognize him if he was walking down the street. But Sam DOES have his admirers- Avatar fans mobbed him at LAX. We wonder if he’ll ever have the paparazzi frenzy that Leonardo DiCaprio had after “Titanic.”
