Jack Nicholson was photographed at the beach with his family in St. Barts yesterday. The Daily Mail says that he’s surrounded by “a bevy of bikini-clad beauties,” but the photo agency says he’s with his family. He has a 26 year-old and a 17 year-old daughter and that might be one or both of them with him.

According to Wikipedia, 70 year-old Nicholson has five children by four different women and was married once in the 1960s.

Nicholson looks like he’s having a grand time on the beach and like he doesn’t give a shit that he’s got a paunch. People age and gain weight, and Hollywood is much more forgiving of old male codgers like Jack than old female codgers like Shirley MacLaine.

Nicholson is campaigning for maybe-doomed Presidential candidate Hilary Clinton. Earlier this month he approved a video endorsement of Clinton featuring clips from his films with themes of leadership like his character’s statement in 1992s A Few Good Men that “There’s nothing sexier than having to salute a woman in the morning.” Clinton’s approval rating has hit a new low following a scandal in which she was exposed as having embellished a 1996 trip to war torn Bosnia. She claimed multiple times to have been under sniper fire and running to a waiting car during that visit, when video shows her chatting with soldiers and children on the tarmac.

Now back to Jack Nicholson, whose statement that he slept with over 2,000 women is also most likely an embellishment. He would probably have more than just five kids if that were true, but in this case it’s hard to prove he’s fibbing.
