OLD & NEW HOLLYWOOD GO CRAZY!!
CELEBS FLASHING THE PINK. Listen up, Paris, Britney and Lindsay…You party girls DID NOT invent snatch flashing or the prodigious use of mind altering substances. One needs the equilibrium of a Whirling Dervish to keep up with all the Old Hollywood gals who exhibited their privates to a panting world. Hedy Lamarr, a delectable Austrian pastry, made her screen debut flashing full frontal nudity in the silent movie, Ecstasy. The actress became a Hollywood screen legend in Cecil B. DeMille’s epic, Samson & Delilah. Hedy invented the technology for the cellphone, but let the patent lapse. Others made millions. Paris, ever hear of Tallulah Bankhead, an aristocratic Southern Belle whose daddy was the U.S. Speaker of the House, third in line for the Presidency? This sexy actress was by her own admission “as pure as the driven slush”. Born over a 100 years ago, Tallulah smoked 100 cigarettes a day, drank cases of gin and bourbon daily, and carried a suitcase full of drugs, declaring: “Cocaine isn’t habit forming. I should know, I’ve been using it for years.” Tallulah went to parties nude, wearing only a single strand of pearls as she sat on a baby grand warbling. She was an avid bisexual who slept with hundreds of men AND women, including Hattie McDaniel (the first black actress to win an Oscar portraying “Mammy” in Gone With The Wind), Greta Garbo and Russian born silent film star Nazimova, the lesbian godmother of former First Lady Nancy Reagan. Tallulah once observed: “My daddy warned me about men and liquor, but he never mentioned women and cocaine.” Unlike Paris, Britney and Lindsay, Tallulah knew from irony and wit. But like them, Tallulah was a shameless flasher of the pink to EVERYONE. While making the Oscar winning Alfred Hitchcock movie, Lifeboat, she never wore panties and loved to shock the cast and crew by climbing up a ladder to the boat, skirt purposely hiked up to publicly expose her privates. When 20th Century Fox head Darryl Zanuck demanded that Hitchcock do something, the director contemptuously replied: “It’s not my department.” The studio chief demanded: “Well, whose department is it?” Hitchcock pondered for a moment, then answered: “Wardrobe or…perhaps hairdressing.”
MR. PRESIDENT, YOU AIN’T NOTHIN’ BUT A HORNDOG. Producer/actor Ashton Kutcher recalls the time he and his wife Demi Moore met the 42nd President of the United States: “Bill Clinton was the only President I ever met, but it was like I wasn’t there. HE WAS HITTING ON MY WIFE.” Many wish the Prez would have been so single minded in his pursuit of Osama Bin Laden, and nailed HIM in the Sudan in the mid 90’s.
DEAD STARS SELL THE GOODS. The style and panache of Old Hollywood is the gift that keeps giving. Audrey Hepburn, dead for 13 years is in an ad campaign for the Gap, elegantly dancing in a scene from Funny Face, a movie she made 50 years ago. The spot hawks slender, black Gap jeans for a New Millenium of consumers. The ever magical Hepburn joins her departed co-stars Fred Astaire (Dirt Devil), John Wayne (Coors) and Humphrey Bogart (Diet Coke & Thomasville Furniture) on the posthumous marketing campaign trail.
ALL SHRINKS TO GREY’S ANATOMY, STAT! Why is the brilliant producer/writer
Shondra Rhimes allowing the boorish Isaiah Washington to sabotage her groundbreaking network mega-hit? FIRE HIM! Why hasn’t this violent thespian had a criminal conviction for his long list of violent transgressions on numerous productions? From the allegations against Mr. Washington, it would appear he’s an equal opportunity rageaholic. Last fall, the pretend doctor assaulted his co-star Patrick Dempsey on the set, choking him after Dr. McDreamy defended castmate T. R. Knight against Washington’s homophobic slur. After Grey’s Anatomy won a Golden Globe for Best TV Series Drama, Washington grabbed the mike from producer Rhimes in front of the entire cast to announce: “No, I did not call T.R. a $#@. Never happened…” Rhimes giggled nervously instead of verbally clocking him.To save his job, Washington entered a 30-day rehab, but was released after a week of counseling, miraculously exorcising his demons in record time. The poster boy for anger management’s hit parade: During filming of the TV show High Incident, Washington got into a fight with a crew member that was vicious enough for the police to be called in. They handcuffed Washington and took him off in a squad car. “He grabbed my throat, choking me. Then he picked me up and threw me over the couch,” the alleged victim told The National Enquirer. While filming Soul Food for Showtime, Washington attacked his actress co-star with a “forceful, aggressive” kiss that caused her to scream. When Executive Producer Tracey Edmonds (“Babyface’s ex-wife) and the director stepped in to calm the situation, Washington went off on them, too. The hair trigger tempered actor also came to blows with a straight, black actor on the set of a play a few years back. Many show biz folks say Washington’s not anti-gay, he’s been angry toward EVERYBODY over the years. Isaiah Washington still has a bullet hole in his right leg, which he admits sustaining because, “I was young and dumb…And one day I popped off my mouth to the wrong person and got shot.” If Producer Rhimes doesn’t fire this guy, may we suggest she write Washington’s character as a newly uncloseted gay doc who plays steamy sex scenes with hot studmuffins for the show’s duration.
QUOTES OF THE DAY.

ALL SHRINKS & PRIVATE DICKS TO GREY'S ANATOMY, STAT!!
Seems the obnoxious co-star of ABC's hit show Grey's Anatomy, Isaiah Washington, has a history of aggressive behavior. Last week the good doctor assaulted his co-star Patrick Dempsey on the set, choking him after Dr. McDreamy defended another castmate, T. R. Knight, against Washington's homophobic slurs. This led Knight to out himself publicly the next week.
Now comes word that during a guest stint in 1997 on the TV show High Incident, Washington got into a fight with a crew member that was vicious enough to have the police called in, according to TMZ.com. Then Washington's dark side reared its ugly head again in 2000 in Toronto while filming Soul Food for Showtime. The script called for a peck on the cheek of his actress co-star, but the actor improvised, and attacked with a "forceful, aggressive kiss". The actress screamed. Washington screamed at her. When the producer and director tried to calm the situation, Washington "went off" on them, too. The hair-trigger actor has yet to apologize to his co-stars on Grey's Anatomy, but he will be on Ellen tomorrow to charm the pants off of her and us.
If this guy wasn't an actor on a hit show, he'd be under arrest for assault and battery. His past behavior would've landed him at least in an anger management class. Stardom with all its perks should carry a responsibility. Bad behavior not only should be outed, but punished to the fullest extent of the law. Yeah, he'll be charming lesbian Ellen tomorrow to show he's not homophobic. It's the most mundane M.O. of the classic abuser. We implore the country of Malawi: Do not give this man a baby...
ANNA NICOLE'S BABY DADDY GAME
Seems Anna Nicole has exhausted the "Let's Not Name The Real Father" game. The lucky winner by default seems to be photographer Larry Birkhead. First, she tried to pin the paternity tail on wealthy Myrtle Beach real estate developer, Gaither Ben Thompson, with whom she had a long term sexual relationship, according to TMZ.com. Her alleged designated baby daddy, her personal, full service attorney, Howard K. Stern, accompanied her to South Carolina during this torrid affair. After inquiring about Thompson's wealth, she informed him that he was the father of her daughter.
Thompson thwarted her dreams of financial fairies dancin' in her head by revealing that was impossible as he already had a vasectomy. That's when she allegedly confessed to the realtor that the photographer was indeed the sperm donor. Shutterbug Birkhead has filed legal papers in Los Angeles to establish paternity.
There's yet another twist in this never-ending sap (oops, soap) opera. Seems the house in the Bahamas where Anna Nicole and her lawyer are staying , which she claimed to own to establish legal residency, was actually owned by her ex-lover Thompson. TMZ learned from Thompson's lawyer that the realtor sold the former stripper his home on credit, but she never paid a cent. She's in default and about to be evicted.
"If the Bahamian government believes the alleged home purchase was a scam to gain residency, Anna Nicole could be deported," reports TMZ.
A slutty Daisy Mae goes to the big city and finds alot of rich men to shtup her. She even finds one old coot billionaire to marry her. They don't care that she has a room temperature IQ, the cooth of Cro-Magnon man and makes Marie Antoinette look like a Quaker. After all, life size blow up Barbie dolls are NEVER out of fashion.
SHARON OSBOURNE: GOODBYE, RUBBER BAND DIETING
Dogged by an eating disorder since age 14, the loquacious, ballsy Sharon Osbourne, wife of madman Ozzy, decided in 1999 to have gastric-band surgery, a fairly non-invasive laparoscopic procedure that reduces the stomach capacity. She lost 125 pounds as a result. But now the cravings are back and she's put on 15 pounds in a year. Overeating with this procedure is a dangerous guilty pleasure, leading to excessive vomiting and a risk of tearing the esophagus. Sharon has survived cancer, empty nest syndrome and her husband's alcohol and drug use and a near fatal accident on an ATV. Now she's facing up to another tough battle: overeating is a psychological problem that has no quick fix. She's tried overspending, surgery and hiding in frenetic, non-stop activity.
Sharon's has made a courageous decision. She's having the gastric-band removed and is going into therapy to find out what's eating at her. "My kids, their whole life, have seen me struggle with weight. They say, 'Now you need to spend time on your head'."
"Nothing tastes as good as thin feels." It's a long way from knowing this to LIVING this. Love to you, Sharon. There's nothing you can't do! Thanks for the unremitting honesty that keeps you forever in our hearts.
