When that wacky, aging sexpot and that youngish, talented screwup were eating
at a posh Beverly Hills watering hole recently, they managed to send every
other diner into a tizzy. Seems the indiscreet couple was laughing hysterically,
schmoozing nonstop and flirting to no end. But that's just the beginning.
She later caused a sensation on her way out when she, completely unbeknownst
to her guest, tried to exit without paying the tab -- and was caught at the
door. Then, while waiting for the valet to round up her car, she slipped
her startled dinner companion the tongue. that's not all - she did the same
to the valet, to whom she passed her phone number before fleeing in her
convertible without bothering to pay the parking fee or a tip. Her kooky,
mortified friend covered them both with a $100 bill. Farrah Fawcett and
Robert Downey Jr. , Demi Moore and Leonardo DiCaprio

Just how hated is that icy, terrifyingly ambitious, marginally attractive
young leading lady? So hated that many likely male costars have practically
told their agents they'd rather do Sally Struthers infomercial than go near
her. Why? Because she's very quickly earned a reputation of being a blatant
user and social climber who sleeps, eats, drinks and dreams stardom and publicity
opportunities 24 hours a day. Gwyneth Paltrow, Minnie Driver, Mira Sorvin,
Winona Ryder, Helen Hunt

Mr. Super-famous TV and film star is looking pretty svelte and suave these
days. Although he's always photographed in workout togs, he really got his
great bod from massive rear-end lipo. Now only if he'd lipo his ego. Dean
Cain, Tim Allen, Don Johnson, Bruce Willis, William Shatner
4. MOVIELINE/NOV..... #4
Mr. Box Office is on a roll with his latest string of hits. Unfortunately
the success has turned this usually cool guy into a hothead. On the set of
his new film he's been throwing tantrums and telling his director where to
shoot and what angle to use. Everyone's afraid to tell the jerk that not
only are his ideas lousy, but his acting's getting sloppy, too. Harrison
Ford, Nicholas Cage, Matt Damon, John Travolta, Bruce Willis

Child's Play. What is it with Hollywood's obsession for young (and we mean
young!) boys? Two of our town's best-known, 50-ish gay directors are famous
for rarely bothering to look twice at any guy older than 30. Whatever. Then
there's the 50-ish mogul and all-around shit-heel who insists his endless
parade of rent boys be hetero and under thirty. Or how about the much-younger,
hot gay director who turns up his nose at any prospect who's turned 20? Yet
none of these guys have anything on that sometime actress, the ex-wife of
a once-hot international name, who indulges her voracious appetite for the
under-12 set--several of whom have been rumored to be the non-English-speaking,
third world kids of her hired help. Insufficient number of guesses made on
all four parts of this blind item.

Mind Your P's and Q's. The mad obsession Hollywood stars have always had
for food, drink and drugs seems to be growing wilder by the instant. How
would this screen funny guy’s legion of rabid fans feel knowing their
favorite hunk can’t reach his erotic peak without two partners? Why
two? Oh, don’t be silly. One to which he’s actively giving his
hunk o’ burnin’ love, the other hovering behind him, fizzing-up
a cold soda bottle and then, at the magic moment, thrusting it … uhm
… where the sun don’t shine. But he’s got nothing on that
married celebrity couple notorious for raiding Manhattan’s best delis
and specialty food shops in order to return home where they smear delicacies
all over each other, then lick and munch to black-and- blue ecstasy. (Isn't
that why she often requires pounds of body makeup?) And what’s this
about that wildly talented wild guy addicted to those wild porno tapes of
people getting creamed in the kisser (among other places)? In time, watching
wasn't enough -- now this bad boy gets off by having pies flung at him by
nasty dial-a-studs! Insufficient number of guesses made on all three parts
of this blind item.

This handsome actor, who's the boyfriend of a top TV sitcom beauty, recently
was dropped by his Hollywood reps because he kept turning up for for meetings
drunk or stoned. Guess his secret is out of the closet....
8. STAR MAGAZINE...11/03
An instantly recognizable TV and movie star often strolls around Universal
Studios although he has no current business there. He's handsome, married
and graying. He likes to strike up conversations with new young men working
at menial jobs on the lot - especially if they have muscles. He gets right
to the point and propositions the guys, promising he'll use his influence
to get them a promotion. If starstruck guys agree he takes them behind the
tour-tram sheds for a quickie. Eventually they catch on that he's notorious
for cruising new male employees - and makes promises he doesn't keep.

Which member of a baseball team that just won the World Series has blown

11. STAR MAGAZINE....11/10
This big-time Hollywood star is out of his mind at the thought of losing
his beautiful trophy wife. He's been scrambling without success to avoid
an up- and-coming divorce. He certainly doesn't want to be seen dating because
he still hopes to save his marriage. To ease the pain and loneliness, he's
keeping company with high-paid hookers. He pays $3,000 for an overnight date
and the gals rave that it's easy money. The sex only lasts about three minutes
and the rest of their evening is spent listening to him talk about his marital
woes!

These two Hollywood stars have lived together for years but they're hiding
a dirty little secret. She once caught him with a hooker in their bed and
kicked him out, but later took him back. Surprisingly, she still puts up

his bimbo bedmates home anymore. Goldie Hawn/Kurt

You see, famous folk are just like you and me: They have romances, fantasies,

that one unlucky soul mentioned somewhere in this column was blackmailed

How badly are things going for that once-hot movie hunk for whom so many
in town were making Big Predictions? After a string of bland performances
in big-studio and independent flicks, the ludicrously pompous guy turned
down a role on an ensemble TV show and a juicy part in a Broadway play, both
of which made full-fledged stars of the actors who took them. Then, after
seeking spiritual enlightenment from every quack known to man, he found his
true calling: producing and funding (very anonymously) porno and fetish videos.
Friends say it's just a matter of time before he shows his all in one of
his own porn flicks.
17. MOVIELINE/DEC.... #2
She's multitalented, has a coterie of fans and, what's more, is totally,
irrefutably bonkers. On the set of her latest extravaganza, the young thing
dropped to her knees to pray to her personal muses and burned sage sticks
to purge the set of evil influences. (It would have been wiser for her to
have driven a stake through the heart of the film's satanic director and
producer, but never mind.) What really frosted her costars, though, is the
acting advice she foisted on them, which she claimed claimed came directly
from long- dead movie icons such as Louise Brooks, Montgomery Clift and Vivien
Leigh.

Missy young top movie star is really a pill. After buying an exclusive, luxury
condo, she had the building management send a letter to all her neighbors
asking that they not make direct eye contact with her in the hallway, stairs
or lobby. Jeez, maybe she should have bought a house.
19. MOVIELINE/DEC.... #4
Missy young TV/movie star who sometimes models has certainly put on a few
pounds. Perhaps they're from all those late-night dinners-for-two that she's
been having in her hotel with a certain special beefcake dude during the
press tour for her new show.

This Melrose Place hunk stunned a couple arriving for a bash at his Hollywood
Hills home by answering the door wearing only a towel. But he was overdressed
compared to his galpal, whose T-shirt barely covered her bare bottom - and
their other guests were buck-naked. Some party!
21. STAR MAGAZINE.....11/17
This serious newsgal has a serious problem - she can't hold her liquor! The
stress of trying to break the hottest stories and competing in a predominantly
man's world has finally gotten to her. She seeks relief from her new best
friend - the bottle. She's careful not to let her addiction affect her work
but she's getting sloppy after hours. At one high-brow Hollywood event she
got so bombed that her embarrassed date had to carry her out. Maybe that's
the reason he's been distancing himself from her lately.

Elvis Lives. Doors are slamming all over town on the surgically enhanced
puss of that ego-bloated, ridiculously overpaid, past-it star famous for
how his agents milked studios and producers for big dollar salaries, even
though he's lately graced more flops than hits.
His longtime detractors are thrilled to see that everyone in Tinseltown is finally over the guy -- and his demands for all sorts of extra star perks like his bloating of movie budgets by insisting on do-nothing jobs for his white trash friends, putting on salary his quack gurus and masseurs, and requiring his fave foods-of-the-moment to be flown in at his whim from global dives.
What's next? Don't be surprised if he signs, with great fanfare, for a TV series for which he'll be paid much, much less than the astronomical salary his agents will tout. Steven Segal , Val Kilmer, Kevin Costner, Patrick Swayze

Didn't that pair of much-photographed, international movie stars realize
everyone in line at that all-night gourmet grocery store knew exactly what
they were up to when they staggered to a checkout line to purchase a couple
of freakishly huge cucumbers and a bottle of baby oil? Maybe it wasn't so
cool of him to try and pay with his credit card (which was rejected) but,
then again, weren't they too boozed up to give a damn?

Yes, another wicked whisper, all about that crack-happy mother and son act...
by Murgatroyd
Crackers. It can't be true about the cocaine addiction of that famous, glamorous movie and TV mom and her handsome young son, can it? Or...can it? Rumors are whizzing around town that this very schizy mother is more than aware of her young son's cocaine abuse: she shares the same problem! Often, insiders say, the parent and the kiddo -- who live out of state -- go on coke- buying sprees together, buying the drug in large quantities from dealers in trendy Santa Barbara and Santa Monica. Can’t help but wonder what the boy did on his own when his mama got admitted to an out-of-state hospital when her nose bled so uncontrollably she seemed an almost certain candidate for a brain hemorrhage? Also, can’t help but wonder when the boy's going to finally be taken out of this sicko's hands and put into protective custody (and enforced rehab)? It sure won't be in the hands of his dad, who's got drug and money problems of his own. Farrah Fawcett and son Redmond, Cher and son Elijah Blue, Goldie Hawn and son Wyatt.

This happily married guy is one of the most popular actors in Hollywood.
He struck up a conversation with a brawny extra on a movie set and the guy
told him he was also a masseur. The actor took his card and called him for
a massage at home at 10 p.m. The masseur was happy with the $200 tip and
he didn't mind dropping everything to rush over when the actor called later
and later at night. The actor's wife and kids were always in another part
of their big house and eventually he made it clear he hoped for more than
just a massage. The masseur aims to make him happy - he'd like to be masseur
on the actor's next movie.

32. SOAP OPERA BLIND ITEM....From www.filth2go.com (Billy Masters)
Could it be that one of the most famous daytime divas is hiding just a little
something in her closet – like a female lover? Don't let that dutiful
wife and mother story fool you – this lady's definitely a better actress
than you ever imagined. No one on the set of her popular sudser would ever
whisper a word of the truth for fear of getting a tongue lashing by someone
who's been known to speak in tongues. I'd tell you who it is, but I'm afraid
that this name would send your head spinning.
33. STAR MAGAZINE...12/01
After getting abruptly fired from her TV job, this gal took out her frustations
in the kitchen. She ate her way through three dress sizes! She took off for
Hollywood looking for work but was so bloated no one would hire her. Desperate
times call for desperate measures she she went on the cocaine diet. The drug
killed her appetite and she's slim again. Now she'd love to kick the habit,
but she's terrified she'll gain all that wieght back if she stops snorting
the drug.

Could it be that a certain well-known entertainment contributor will be surfacing
in a gay porn film? That was the buzz at this year's GEVAs. Rumor has it
that said entity is in hush-hush negotiations with one of gay porn's noted
drag directors to leave his behind-the-scenes position and get into some
compromising ones on camera. But don't expect to recognize him – rumor
has it that he will either be in drag or will simply supply the "stunt
dick".

Speaking of Keanu, which fast-travelling co-star in the last hit for either one of them has an unusually styled hair cut beneath her bikini? Like what little is there is trimmed in an unusually suggestive manner? Ew! I almost threw up!
Which recently humiliated pop star can't get enough of dangerous public sex and, though steering clear of certain stomping grounds, is particulary fond of steam rooms? We're told he still gets plenty of action owing to his vocal celebrity and other renown oral accomplishment, but that it's really a waste of time bothering to locate or fiddle with his bits. Community service your way out of that one!
And which boat-faring co-star of Brad Pitt several years back -- an almost but not quite a name in his own right just yet -- has only one where there should be two? Ew! I almost threw up again!

37. From the Filth2Go....11/30...
Could it be that a certain former TV heartthrob is cruising guys publicly?
I don't wanna be accused of spreading gossip, but this hot boy (who was pretty
damn super in his younger days) was making a public appearance recently at
a DC convention and stuck around until it was virtually deserted. Why? All
the better to approach the cute boy he'd been cruising. Perhaps he was just
being friendly with that typical line straight men say to other straight
men - "You've got the bluest eyes I've ever seen." (which is funny because
our hero used to have blue eyes too.) Anyway, I'm told that nothing happened
and that this particular object of his affections left after a few awkward
moments, but I trust our hero didn't go home alone. After all, the photos
he was hawking of himself in that tight Speedo made it clear where his talents
lie.

This gorgeous TV doll was a household name in the late '70s and early '80s.
Her series and numerous made-for-TV movies were smash hits. Everyone wanted
to be her. But those days are over and the '90s haven't been kind. She hasn't
had an acting job in years and to fill her time she's turned to the bottle.
Her stay in rehab did little to stall her addiction. She's drinking again,
and her once amazing figure is bloated. It's so bad that her beloved husband
has threatened to file for divorce unless she checks back into rehab for
as long as it takes.

Chimes at Midnight. They're pretty, they're famous, they're such close
girlfriends. Well, since they're in showbiz, only kind of, as it turns out.
It seems that the bigger-hearted, more generous doll of the two has been trying frantically to spice up her gal pal's stalled career as well as her futile love life. Why not combine the two, Ms. Generosity thought?
So, when the gal pal couldn't find a leading man willing to play opposite her in her newest sure-to-be-bomb, Lady Bountiful helpfully put in a good word for that sexy European actor who hasn't been seen much on these shores.
Now that the once-hot pal and the Eurotrash actor are making the movie and carrying on a torrid affair, is the helpful friend going to admit that she, earlier, carried on with the actor till one night when she returned to their hotel suite to find him in bed making ooh-la-la with two hotel employees -- one female and the other male? Gwyneth Paltrow and Winona Ryder, Mira Sorvino and ?

Could it be that a certain high-profile former underwear model is dropping
his drawers in public? Not only that, but this self-professed bisexual has
been eschewing any female companionship lately and spending more and more
time in the company of men. And not just any men - men in towels! This horny
guy has been spotted in some rather compromising positions lately at a few
gay bathhouses around the country. Although he is extremely friendly and
approachable in public, when you see him cruising the halls in a towel, he's
all business. How does he lure his men (who, strangely, don't recognize him
until the act is well underway)? He simply lets the towel drop discreetly,
picks it up with a sheepish grin, and returns to his room with the door wide
open. What does he get into? Aside from simply wanting to be serviced, I'm
told that he really likes to make out. That experience with mouth to mouth
has really paid off!

Could it be that a certain adorable star of one of those nighttime teen soaps
has been a bitless than discreet about his preference for other cute guys?
It wasn't enough that he has been previously linked with his trainer (maybe
he knows Brendan), with a teen heartthrob from a Saturday morning show, and
even with an actress whose career has been charmed, I'm sure. Nope, this
diminutive star must have dropped his paranoia when he showed up at a NYC
gay bar, bought a beer, and flashed that trademark smile and dimples. Within
ten minutes, the cutest guy in the place went over to him, and this newly-coupled

Yes, another eyebrow-raising tale of plastic surgery run amok... by Murgatroyd
Breaking Point. Strains and cracks are becoming increasingly obvious every day in this much-photographed couple's highly improbable relationship. They'll doubtless yack about all the whys and wherefores if (make that when) they head for splitsville, but isn't plastic surgery a major source of tension? Whenever she claims the need to have quality time alone, he realizes this means one thing and one thing only: it's time again for her to fly off to Europe for yet another nip and tuck. Hilariously, she swears up and down to him (and anyone else who'll listen) that she's never been nipped or tucked. After all, he's in no position to complain; he does the very same thing with the very same docs and, yes, tells the very same lies about it. So what's the problem for this deluded duo? He's rightfully distressed that his latest surgery didn't turn out quite so well. Or haven't you noticed?

I have a pair of stories regarding celebrities engaging in male-to-male sex.
No, not together but both in Canadian hotel rooms. I am cloaking these stories
in blind items since, well, why end the year with a lawsuit? The first is
about a film funnyman who is said to have enjoyed porn actor Claude Jourdan.
Did they have fun? I'm told that it wasn't a single encounter and that there
were many encore performances.The second item is far more seedy - which means
that I like it more. One fan was telling me of his AOL chat with a certain
rugged actor who was in Toronto hotel. This 41-year-old (who has done every
sequel to his most popular flick) seemed to want my source to show up at
the hotel with a friend and have a bit of fun. The actor, who is obviously
method, had been partying and wanted to be in the middle. My source called
the hotel to confirm that this actor was staying there (and you know I did
too!) and went to the assignation. These stories never have happy endings,
and this one is no different. Our swinger was far too high and not in any
condition to stand up, let alone get it up. Could it be that a former soap
opera hunk is tired of waiting for his next part and is now waiting tables?
Oh, it's true, and the intriguing thing about this item is that it could
fit several former hunks. But this particularly item is not about the soap
actor now serving drinks,nor the other soap actor currently drinking them!
Our story is about the one who has just had a bit of bad luck. Since he still
needs to keep up with certain monthly payments, he's moved in with his
much-lauded Mum and taken a job in a rather high-profile restaurant. All
the better to audition, I suppose.

less-than-perfect husband. Despite dire predictions, they're happy as clams.
Here's why: Three isn't a crowd in their bedroom. They've spiced up their
love life by hiring expensive call girls to join them in kinky fun and games.
Most surprising, the big star isn't just doing this to please her bored hubby
she's more into it than he is!
57. TED CASABLANCA....12/31
Tacky little Tedbit here for your now-limp Xmas stocking: There's a thespian
of sorts mentioned in this here column, babycakes (someone who, I assure
you, adores crabcakes), who sorta yo-yos on the weight thang.
Wanna know what the dude says every time he passes a Winchell's Donuts? (A little hint: Think Sean Penn.)
Can I say it? All right, I'll go ahead. (My mother doesn't even own a computer.) The aroma of freshly risen doughy stuff gives our Mr. Actor Man something that rises as well, so he says.
I think you know what I mean. (Does that make me mean?)
MENTIONED IN HIS COLUMN:
Sean Penn Val Kilmer Danny Glover Jeff Goldblum Ted Danson Charlton Heston
James Wood Elijah Wood David Schwimmer Leonard Nimoy David Boreanaz Gabriel
Bryne Rupert Everett Sean Lennon Keanu Reeves Jack Nicholson Nick Nolte Woody
Harrelson John Travolta Drew Carey
