Janet Charlton's HOLLYWOOD

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

One of the most unexpected stories this week was news that Taylor Swift was NO LONGER being subpoenaed by Justin Baldoni in his lawsuit against Blake Lively.  Remember we were the FIRST to reveal Justin planned to subpoena Taylor, and here’s what we know about his reversal.  Justin’s tactic WORKED because the LAST thing Blake wanted was to drag her former best friend into her legal mess.  More than anything, Blake wants to get back on track with Taylor, so behind closed doors negotiations are underway to find a way OUT of these lawsuit dramas that can leave both Justin and Blake with the least amount of collateral damage.  My source predicts both lawsuits will be settled before any trial, and before the end of the summer, maybe even sooner!

Speaking of Taylor Swift, her boyfriend Travis Kelce was talked about when photos of him shirtless revealed that not only does her have a very hairy chest he also has an ample amount of back hair.   We just heard that Taylor doesn’t mind his chest hair but doesn’t find his back hair particularly attractive.  He was planning to undergo laser hair removal but the process takes too long and would interfere with his upcoming football season. (He usually just has the back hair waxed off.)   My source says that Travis will eventually undergo permanent hair removal once his schedule allows.

More bombshells out of the Diddy trial, but here’s a new twist.  Diddy has been struggling to get any celebrity pals to testify on his behalf as character witnesses.  So far, no one is willing to voluntarily take the stand.  He’s been advised that he may need to subpoena some of his former girlfriends, like Jennifer Lopez, but is hesitant because hostile witnesses (those unwilling to testify without a subpoena) usually are of no help to the defense.

Speaking of Jennifer Lopez, we just heard that she’s quietly dating again after her very public split from Ben Affleck.  Jen isn’t telling her friends much except that she’s been on a few  private dates with a very eligible bachelor who isn’t involved in the entertainment industry.  We heard the lucky guy ( at least we think he’s lucky, since Jen can be a handful) made billions in business and shuns the limelight.  While we are happy for her, we aren’t sure this is a match made in heaven since J.Lo loves the spotlight, so only time will tell.

Megan Fox made the news when she announced her baby girl with former fiance Machine Gun Kelly wasn’t planned but instead an unexpected surprise.  Not sure that we believe Megan since we heard for a while that she was desperate to have a baby girl and was investigating procedures like sperm spinning to better the odds of influencing the gender of her baby.  Remember, we were the only site to reveal Megan’s pregnancy months before she or anyone else reported on the big news. Planned or not, we are still happy she got the baby girl of her dreams.  We also heard her relationship with MGK has improved and she hasn’t closed the door on a a reconciliation.  Stay tuned.

Yikes! Kourtney Kardashian raised more than a few eyebrows when she announced on her sister Khloe’s podcast that she basically sees no reason to send her kids to school, opting instead for alternative educational choices.  We just heard that despite his many shortcomings, her baby daddy Scott Disick was FURIOUS at the statement and wants his kids with Kourtney to stay in school until they get their masters degrees.  While Kourtney’s husband, Travis Barker apparently isn’t big on education either, (his two children with ex Shanna Moakler aren’t very educated) Scott is putting his foot down and let Kourtney know his feelings, urging her not to allow their kids to drop out. We side with Scott…

And have a Memorable weekend!!

DONALD TRUMP’S GOOD DEED

Here’s a sentence you don’t hear often, Donald Trump actually did something nice, expecting nothing in return!  Soon after news broke of former President Biden’s health issue, my DC source revealed that Donald quietly reached out to Joe and offered him the use of Camp David if he wanted to get away.  According to my source, Trump doesn’t want to publicize his gesture because he fears it will turn off his fanatical MAGA base.  Nonetheless, the Bidens ARE planning to take him up on the offer once they navigate a treatment plan for Joe.

HOLLYWOOD WHODUNIT

This famous person is currently serving time behind bars, and although they’ve always been heterosexual, they unexpectedly found LOVE with a same sex partner housed in their cellblock. They confessed their secret to a friend during a jailhouse visit, and explained that while they never expected to develop feelings for a someone of the same gender, they couldn’t deny an attraction that was both emotional and physical.  Since romances are prohibited in these institutions, they have to hide their escapades from the guards, but confided to their nonjudgmental friend that the relationship had turned sexual. We are keeping the clues to a minimum since there aren’t that many famous people currently incarcerated, so happy guessing.

 

GUESS WHO!!!

THE SEAN DIDDY COMBS STORY IS JUST BEGINNING

The celebrity trial of the decade has just begun and so has the Hollywood version. As Diddy faces a possible life in prison sentence if convicted of sex trafficking and other crimes, a MOVIE version is already in the works and being secretly produced and financed by some of his celebrity frenemies (of which he has MANY!)  We aren’t naming names just yet, since our inside source swore us to secrecy to protect the project. But once a verdict is reached, expect production to begin, whether Diddy is found guilty or innocent. Any casting suggestions?

ARMIE HAMMER TO THE RESCUE

Armie Hammer knows his Heimlich!  According to an eyewitness at Baltaire restaurant in Brentwood, Armie was having dinner with a two friends on May 18 when one of them started choking on a piece of food that got lodged in her throat.  Our eyewitness describes the victim as a gorgeous model type who started gasping for air as she was struggling to breathe. Within seconds, Armie started doing the Heimlich maneuver on his friend until the piece of food popped out.  Longtime readers know we are usually suspicious of these “celebrity hero” tales but our source witnessed it with their own eyes –  even seeing the food fly out of the model’s mouth!

RIHANNA AND ASAP ROCKY’S AIRBNB ROMANCE

With two kids at home and a third one on the way, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky rarely have any alone time, but they’ve found a creative way to change that.  Since the couple relies on family members and not nannies to help them raise their babies, there is always a close relative at their Beverly Hills estate.  While it certainly makes raising their babies easier, having so many relatives constantly around doesn’t set the mood for romance. According to my well placed source, the couple has found a way to have “romantic rendezvous” without checking into a hotel.  They have started to rent the most luxurious AIRBNB’s every few weeks for their bedroom romps.  As my source explains they don’t like the idea of being seen at hotel and the privacy of renting out fancy estates even for just one night has been their secret weapon in keeping their sex life active in a house full of babies and relatives.

JEAN SMART: HACKS ISN’T THE ONLY GOOD THING IN HER LIFE

Jean Smart has a secret – she’s dating again.  Jean has been in mourning since the unexpected death of her husband Richard Gilliland in 2021. Jean and Richard met on the set of Designing Women and were married for 33 years, so when he passed away she threw herself into her work on Hacks to take her mind off of her sadness. According to an insider, Jean has had a new man in her life for months now, but she’s keeping it a secret from all but her closest pals for the time being.  It’s working out well so far though, and if it continues she plans on going public with her new beau very soon.

HAILEY BIEBER IS PLAYING IT SAFE

Is Hailey Bieber looking for an exit strategy now that her husband Justin seems to be on another downward spiral?  Justin’s recent behavior, including posting concerning messages on social media, have many in his inner circle worried.  While Hailey seems to be keeping up appearances, behind closed doors she’s looking at available homes in the Beverly Hills area as a backup plan in case she and Justin don’t work out.  My source says that Hailey is worried about Justin’s current state, but has decided she can only focus on things she can control, so that’s why she’s house hunting for a place for herself in case things with Justin further deteriorate.

JEFF BEZOS HAS A SURPRISE FOR LAUREN SANCHEZ

They’re getting married this summer and Jeff Bezos just might have found  the perfect wedding gift for his bride to be, Lauren Sanchez.  Thanks to Jeff’s billions, Lauren can get practically anything her heart desires, so instead of buying her another expensive bauble, Jeff has decided to make one of her lifelong dreams come true and turn her into a Bond Girl!  Now that Jeff’s company, Amazon owns the rights to the James Bond franchise, he can basically call the shots on casting decisions so he’s decided to give Lauren a part as one of the Bond Girls.  My source says this has been a fantasy of Lauren’s for decades, and Jeff is hoping to surprise her with the role during their wedding.

JOAN COLLINS PLAYS THE DUCHESS OF WINDSOR – WITH A SURPRISING COSTAR

Congratulations to Joan Collins– she’s 92 (above left) and still a working actress, starring in The Bitter End as Wallis Simpson. It’s the story of the final years of The Duchess of Windsor, after her husband King Edward VIII died. And those years weren’t so happy, thanks to Simpson’s sinister lawyer Suzanne Blum, played by the decidedly non-sinister Isabella Rossellini.  While Simpson suffered from dementia, the lawyer separated her from friends and made her life miserable. Here’s a surprise – THAT happens to be  Rossellini in the photo above, looking considerably more like a man than her usual self… the plot thickens…
