Wedding Bells Ring for Trump

Will the fourth time be the charm for Ivana Trump? Frankly, I could care less, yet I still felt compelled to blog about The Donald’s ex-wife’s weekend nuptials. And no, it’s not because this is the 59-year-old’s fourth trip down the aisle. Nor is it because she is marrying a guy she could have theoretically given birth to. (Trump’s newest husband is Rossano Rubicondi a 35-year-old Italian model-actor who she has dated since he was in his late 20s.) The reason I’m compelled to write about the Saturday soiree is because of where it took place and who helped foot … Continue reading

Donald Trump Looking to Make Ladies from Tramps

And he’s starting with Miss Ashley Alexander Dupré a.k.a. former Gov. Eliot Spitzer’s call girl. I know what you are thinking: Trump + Dupré = The Perfect Match. Well, it’s not a done deal yet. According to insiders, Donald Trump is courting the 22-year-old prostitute to star in his new MTV reality TV show (now that “The Celebrity Apprentice” is over he’s got to have his hand in something). The yet-to-be titled series is being produced by Trump’s company and was picked up by MTV for eight 60-minute episodes. The show is reportedly based on a British series called “Ladette … Continue reading

Donald Trump Bad Neighbor?

I suppose when you own as many homes as Donald Trump you are bound to have a few neighbors who wish you weren’t part of the hood. Such is the case in California where the real estate mogul has once again upset his just-as-wealthy neighbors. According to news reports, this time the problem has to do with ficus trees. (Oh, to be so rich and problem free that trees are enough to set you off.) The Donald reportedly planted hundreds of the trees without the city’s permission to screen the nearby driving range from the multimillion-dollar mansions that border his … Continue reading

Donald Trump: “I Quit!”

In what is being dubbed as a preemptive strike, real estate mogul turned reality TV star Donald Trump is not giving network executives at NBC the chance to fire him because—-he quit. Within hours of discovering his low-rated reality show “The Apprentice” was left off NBC’s new prime-time schedule Trump issued a statement that said he intended to “move on from ‘The Apprentice’ to a major new TV venture,” though he declined to elaborate. Frankly, I find the entire situation rather hilarious. Here you have a network unveiling its new TV line up, Trump sees it, realizes his show didn’t … Continue reading

Fashion Files: Trump’s Hair and A Rocker Turned Designer

IS TRUMP GETTING A TRIM? So much has been said (and written) about Donald Trump’s hairdo (or don’t) that it came as no surprise to me that the real estate mogul is finally putting his hair where his mouth is. I am not a fan of professional wrestling, but I may be swayed to tune into Wrestlemania 23 on April 1st. According to news reports, that’s when viewers will get to see one of the “most anticipated wrestling matches in history.” So, what does a wrestling match have to do with Donald Trump and his hair? Trump and World Wrestling … Continue reading

Trump Wants A Jock In The Family

Looking at Donald Trump I would have never pegged him as an athlete. This week I found out that my presumption about him was right. Trump’s daughter Ivanka tells “Stuff” magazine in its September issue that her father has always dreamed of being an athlete, but will settle for her dating one. “He has very strong opinions – which I try not to listen to,” Ivanka tells the magazine. The 24-year-old who holds the title of vice president of real-estate development for the Trump Organization is used to following the advice of her boss (and dad), on business matters only. … Continue reading

Rosie O’Donnell Under Fire for Grabbing Son

Here we go again. Rosie O’Donnell’s back in the headlines for something she says she didn’t do and Donald Trump is there to add his two-cents worth on the entire ordeal. The latest Rosie rant started last week when The Globe ran a cover story with the headline “Abusive Rosie Bullies Son, 12.” The photos that accompany the article show an angry O’Donnell in an apparent argument with her pre-teen son Parker (who by the way has grown a LOT since I last saw him—-heck, he’s nearly as tall as Rosie). In one particular shot the former talk show host … Continue reading

Ready, Set… Wed!

It yet another startling chapter (oh wait, nothing in Hollywood surprises me anymore) in the ongoing saga between actor Charlie Sheen, his ex-wife, Denise Richards and his current girlfriend Brooke Mueller it seems a wedding is in the offing… for Sheen and Mueller. According to TV’s “Extra,” after a year of dating, Sheen popped the question to his real estate investor girlfriend on a Costa Rican beach. He reportedly sealed the deal with a $500,000 engagement ring. Good gravy! Do you think he thought she would say no if the ring was worth less than a house, two cars, and … Continue reading

“The Donald” Keeps His Hair

When I wrote about Donald Trump’s wrestling bet a few weeks back I made a bet with myself that the entire “Battle of the Billionaires” showdown was a big April Fools Day joke. Well, it turns out I may have been partially right. For those of you who don’t keep tabs on The Donald’s bets (or his hair… or loss of it), Trump was involved in what World Wrestling Entertainment owner Vince McMahon dubbed a “hairy smackdown.” Essentially, the Trumpster and McMahon had WWE wrestlers duke it out in the ring on their behalf last night (April 1, 2007). Pro … Continue reading

Good News For “Grey’s” Fans… Maybe

It worked for “Cheers,” “Different Strokes,” and “All in the Family,” but could it work for “Grey’s Anatomy?” ABC’s hit medical drama is toying with the idea of creating a spin-off series. According to news reports, a special two-hour episode, featuring cast members Kate Walsh and Taye Diggs, is being shot as a test run for a possible new series. Network executives say the episode will air sometime this season. By spinning off Walsh’s character, neonatal surgeon Addison Shepherd, the show’s creators would be disassembling the romantic triangle involving Dr. Derek Shepherd (played by Patrick Dempsey) and intern Meredith Grey … Continue reading
