Hitched and Ditched in Hollywood

HITCHED Eat your heart out Jen. It didn’t happen with a slew of TV cameras around… but it’s still official. “The Bachelor” is now off the market. Well, one of them anyway. Andrew Firestone, who starred in the third season of ABC’s hit reality TV series “The Bachelor” got hitched Saturday… to a woman who had nothing to do with the show that made him famous. Firestone married Serbian model and actress Ivana Bozilovic in a private ceremony at St. Mark’s in the Valley Episcopal Church in Los Olivos, the California town where his family’s winery is based. The marriage … Continue reading →

Thirty-three-year-old Fallon met his 40-year-old bride on the set of his 2005 romantic comedy “Fever Pitch” and proposed to her last August at the Junoven family home in New Hampshire on Lake Winnipesaukee, where “On Golden Pond” was filmed.

Two Splits and an Unlikely Duo

I should have known it was coming. I had just read in Star Magazine how great a relationship Drew Barrymore had with the Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti. After all, Barrymore and Moretti had been together almost five years, which seemed like fifty in Barrymore years. Barrymore had not been known for long-term relationships, having been married first husband Jeremy Thomas for only six months and second husband Tom Green for a year. Then I went to the Movie and Television News section of the Internet Movie Database today and there is it – “Barrymore Splits with Strokes Drummer.” There is … Continue reading →

New Celebrity Moms

The stork has visited Hollywood again. Actress Drew Barrymore has made a remarkable recovery from a troubled child actress with a drug and drinking problem to a beautiful, successful adult actress who recently married and gave birth to her first child. Barrymore married her third husband (first husband Jeremy Thomas lasted less than two months and second husband Tom Green lasted a little over a year) Will Kopelman in June 2012. Although Barrymore was obviously with child, the couple didn’t announce her pregnancy. They simply went on with their wedding and lives until she gave birth to a daughter named … Continue reading →

Stars Giving Big

Drew Barrymore knows how to give from the heart… or at least from the bottom of her bank account. If you watched yesterday’s “Oprah Winfrey Show” then you know what I’m referring to. The 33-year-old actress shocked Oprah and the entire studio audience (not to mention a few million people watching at home) when she whipped out a check and announced that she was donating $1 million to the World Food Programme to help feed children in Africa. “I have seen with my own eyes what a difference a simple cup of nutritious porridge can make in a child’s life,” … Continue reading →

The Evolution of Celebrity Couples

DATING Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem may have a hard time denying rumors that they are an official couple after the world sees how cozy they were during a recent vacation in the Maldives. Earlier this week paparazzi snapped dozens of shots of the Spanish actors in their swimsuits frolicking and cuddling together on the beach bordering their hut in the Maldives. The pair was first linked a few months ago, but back then Cruz (Tom Cruise’s former flame) denied a relationship existed. “It’s not true,” Cruz told reporters this summer. “He’s a friend and the best actor in the … Continue reading →

Celebs New Gigs

Well, you had to see this coming. He may be the only other man involved in the Anna Nicole Smith saga, besides Larry Birkhead, who emerged smiling. I’m referring to Judge Larry Seidlin… the wisecracking, tear-stained, snarky, former New York cab driver who presided over the Anna Nicole Smith case. During the court proceeding Seidlin frequently threw out comedic one-liners and referred to the lawyers with nicknames such as “Tex” and “California.” At the time, many observers called Seidlin’s behavior an act and maintained he was angling for his own television program ala “Judge Judy.” Well, guess what? They were … Continue reading →

Updates: Celebrity Couples

They said it wouldn’t last… and it didn’t. Such is the fate of most celebrity couples. The latest names to be added to the list of failed Hollywood marriages: Jennifer Murphy (a former contestant on “The Apprentice”) and Dr. William Dorfman (the dentist from “Extreme Makeover”). According to court papers, Murphy filed for divorce earlier this week. The couple has been married for about a year. The 28-year-old former Miss USA contestant cited irreconcilable differences in her petition filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court. Murphy met her 48-year-old (now estranged) husband at the 2004 Miss USA pageant, when she … Continue reading →

Celebrities’ Unexpected Callings

When we watched her cuddling an emaciated extraterrestrial on the big screen as a little girl I’m sure not very many of us would have imagined Drew Barrymore would grow up to be an advocate for the world’s hungry. But, alas, life is unpredictable. Yes, it is true. Actress Drew Barrymore has been named an ambassador against hunger for the World Food Program. The global humanitarian program provides food aid to more than 90 million poor people, including 58 million hungry children who live in 80 of the world’s poorest countries. Members of the media have been following the 32-year-old … Continue reading →

Drew The Cover Girl

I wonder if I’m the only one who is surprised with the celebrities CoverGirl cosmetics chooses to be their newest faces? Surprised–in a good way. For example, Queen Latifah, Molly Sims and R&B star Rihanna were all recently named as CoverGirl spokes models. Now a former wild child (of sorts) is joining the cosmetics sorority. CoverGirl just announced that actress Drew Barrymore is joining the ranks of Cheryl Tiegs, Rachel Hunter, Christie Brinkley, and Tyra Banks to become the newest radiant face of the popular cosmetics company. According to the company, the 32-year-old actress just wrapped up the CoverGirl spots … Continue reading →
