Paris: I’m still with Starvos!


Paris Hilton has overcome her fear of foreign languages and insists that she’s still with Greek oil heir Stavros Niarchos III.

The hotel heiress was doing her thing on the red carpet at the Roxy nightclub in LA - but Stavros was nowhere to be seen.

She’d turned out to support pal Bijou Phillips, who was performing in a one-night stage production of Hedwig And The Angry Inch.

According to IMDb, Paris said her boyf, who is at the University of Southern California, was at home concentrating on his studies…

He’s turning 21 in two weeks, so he wants to get all the work done before the big birthday.”

Further rubbishing reports of trouble between the lovebirds, she added: “We just got back from the Bahamas.

We just got back two hours ago. We’ve been relaxing for the past five days.”

Paris must be waiting eagerly for Niarchos’ birthday. He stands to inherit $275 million when he turns 21. Paris is only expected to get a mere $50 million for her inheritance.

Hilton and Niarchos were last photographed together about a week ago.

Paris shouldn’t be so concerned about money. She’s signed up to add her name to a line of sunglasses to join the watches, handbags, leather goods, and cosmetics under the Paris Hilton label. [via]

Countries try to increase tourism by claiming Brad Pitt is buying real estate


We’ve read two different reports that Brad Pitt is buying real estate. One seems somewhat legitimate and the other sounds like complete BS.

  • First, Pitt is said to be investing in beach property in the Dominican Republic:
    The famous actor arrived in the country last Tuesday and visited the resort regions of Uvero Alto, Miches and Samaná where he will reportedly invest large sums in beach real estate.
  • He’s also said to be buying a vineyard in Italy. Of course the spokesperson for the estate was more than happy to annouce Pitt’s “secret” visit:
    Hollywood star BRAD PITT is planning to buy a vineyard outside Turin, Italy - a short distance from his pal GEORGE CLOONEY’s Lake Como pad.

    MONICA TAVELLA, a spokeswoman for the estate, says, “Brad’s visit was kept very secret, and only a handful of people knew that he was staying with us.

    “He stayed over a weekend which is usually quiet, so he was able to see the vineyard and the cellars where the wine is aged.

    “He was very interested in the whole process of wine-making, right from the vine to the bottle, and he was also very knowledgeable. He seemed to be interested in buying.”

    Since no one else was at the vineyard at the time, there are no dates given for Pitt’s visit, and only a ‘handful of people” know he was there, we’re sure there’s no one to confirm the fact that Brad is interested in this failing winery in Italy.

    There are pictures of Pitt’s visit to the Dominican Republic last weekend, though, which make the story that he’s buying real estate there more likely.

    Jennifer Garner to get naked in new film


    Jennifer Garner is set to take it all off in a new erotic thriller. Her production company, Vandalia Films, is creating the picture, titled “Sabbatical,” which will have a missing person plot with a twist:

    The story’s premise follows a couple that hits the seventh-year-itch of marriage. To inject some life into their union, they decide to take a two-week sabbatical from each other during which, within a set of agreed rules, they can do whatever they want. When the wife returns to the agreed-upon meeting place two weeks later, however, she discovers that her husband has disappeared.

    In these pictures taken of Garner shopping in Santa Monica yesterday, she looks like she has slimmed down in preparation to go back to work. She has said that she is losing weight slowly instead of going on a radical diet in order to make sure that she and her nursing baby Violet, almost four months, are healthy.

    Update: Four additional pictures of Garner shopping in Brentwood without sunglasses. She looks great. More pictures after the jump.

    Pink to open and dance in her own strip clubs


    Pink plans to open a chain of strip clubs - and wants to dance in them herself!

    The pop babe is such a fan of erotic shows she is allegedly considering launching lapdancing dens in London, Las Vegas and Los Angeles.

    An insider told Britain’s Daily Star newspaper: “They could be huge because everybody loves her and her determination to take on the establishment.”

    Pink trained to be a pole dancer for her latest erotic-themed show and flew in strippers from LA to perform on stage with her. We reported that she was planning to do a little pre-show stripping for her new husband, Carey Hart, while they were in London two days ago.

    Female-owned strip clubs can be just as successful and sexy, and may offer a better work culture for dancers. Jenna Jameson owns a club in Arizona that has done well, although it’s now facing legal challenges from the community. Pink should stay behind the scenes though and leave the work to the professionals for the sake of her marriage and her business.

    Sting invents clever excuse for stripper addiction


    Sting is opening a strip joint in NYC and can finally put those rumors that he’s stripper-obsessed to rest. He was just doing research for his new business venture, and the fact that he insisted that dancers keep their clothes on during lap dances bolsters his excuse. Bowie will be able to get his rocks off without guilt, too:

    Notorious strip-club aficionado Sting is opening his very own jiggle joint. We hear that the former Police chief is set to launch a satellite of Hollywood burlesque bar Forty Deuce on West 21st Street and 10th Avenue - and among his backers is regal rock legend David Bowie. While we’ve never spotted Bowie at Scores, Sting is a regular at top-shelf mammary meccas, where he is known for asking strippers to keep their dresses on during lap dances.

    You go, Sting. Guess those threesomes with Trudie were getting old.

    Vincent Gallo is the cash-toting unabomber

    Vincent Gallo with ugly big glasses and a full shaggy beard
    Unabashed racist sperm donor Vincent Gallo made an appearance at the LA Fashion week kick-off dinner at Mr. Chow’s last night. He looks like he wants to go into hiding, but isn’t quite sure if he can give up the free food.

    Gallo isn’t all about pimping himself on eBay for an exhorbitant sum. His friend Mickey Rourke revealed that Gallo helped him through a rough patch by giving him 100k in a paper bag for a brief appearance in Buffalo 66:

    Down-on-his-luck ANGEL HEART star Rourke was offered $100,000 for four hours work in Gallo’s offbeat BUFFALO 66 movie at a time when he was struggling to make ends meet.

    Rourke recalls, “I was flat broke because nobody would hire me. Vinnie called me up and said, ‘Hey, I got this thing but you gotta learn it.’

    “Then he said, ‘Are you having trouble with the government?’ I told him, ‘Yeah, I owe them a lot of money.’ He said, ‘What if I give you $100,000 in a paper bag…?’

    “When my scene was over, Vinnie gave me a paper bag full of money and I got on a plane the same afternoon.”

    Where does someone get $100,000 in a paper bag? Obviously Gallo was keen to get rid of it quickly.

    Retraction of the last post


    I found a picture of Gisele Bundchen with activist billionaire Ron Burkle on the JJB Board. I dug up information on the guy to create a post - just in case they were dating. It was published when I found out that Burkle and Bundchen were out doing business. Burkle owns a stake in P.Diddy’s clothing line and Bundchen is thinking of starting her own line too. Bundchen owns and designs Ipanema sandals, which sell over 6 million pairs a year. Picture [via]

    Thanks for understanding, and the old post is after the jump.

    Cameron and Justin to make Gigli on Ice

    Cameron and Justin drinking beer at a basketball game. Justin's caption reads: our movie is going to be such a hit. Cameron's caption reads: you are like a total genius
    We cannot contain our delight at today’s news that Cameron and Justin are taking advantage of the brief ice skating “craze” to create and star in a ice skating-themed romance movie:

    Justin and Cam have thrown their acting hats into the rink and have begun developing an as-yet-untitled romantic skating flick with themselves as the leading couple.

    By the time they finish this flop the public will not give a shit about ice skating. The Olympics are finished, Skating with Celebrities has wrapped, and no one will care about ice skating a month from now. The only reason people will watch this is to see Cameron in tiny outfits.

    Everyone also knows that it’s incredibly stupid to make a film with your significant other. The Sun recaps:

    MADONNA and SEAN PENN’s Shanghai Surprise from 1986 is one of the worst movies ever made. They divorced three years later.

    BEN AFFLECK and J-LO’s appalling Gigli came just before they split — and their careers have never recovered.

    Eyes Wide Shut is not regarded as one of TOM CRUISE or NICOLE KIDMAN’s finest works. They divorced in 2001, two years after the film, STANLEY KUBRICK’s last, came out.

    Gigli on ice - we can’t wait!

    Nick Lachey loves Teens

    Nick Lachey in front of a blown-up picture of him on the cover of Teen People Magazine
    Nick Lachey was the host of Teen People’s “20 Teens Who Will Change the World” event yesterday in New York. Teens honored included young “Lost” actor Malcolm David Kelly who is a youth mentor, Cody DeWitt, a 19 year-old filmmaker who documented his mother’s battle with cancer, and Shannon Sullivan, a 14 year-old champion for Internet safety.

    Lachey made a surprising move last month when he announced that he was concerned about teen safety online and was starting up a teens-only social networking community to compete with MySpace. Lachey may have just been lending his celebrity to help some of his childhood friends, who developed the site. It is called Yfly and is now online

    Lachey is featured on the cover of the this month’s Teen People, which includes an article about selfless teens. Here is Lachey at the event. The woman pictured with him is singer Natasha Bedingfield, who performed her songs “These Words” and “Unwritten.”

    Stefani in talks for new lifestyle magazine

    Gwen Stefani pregnant wearing sunglasses and a baggy striped shirt
    Gwen Stefani may be starting a new magazine with print mogul Jane Pratt, former head of the magazines “Jane,” and our favorite glossy in our teen years, “Sassy.” Women’s Wear Daily reports that Stefani is in final talks with Pratt for the project, which would “include book and online components” and involve Stefani’s record label, Interscope:

    Stefani’s lawyer confirmed Thursday that the singer and the former editor are in talks, but insisted there has been “no definitive agreement.” He referred other questions to Interscope, which declined to comment. Pratt did not return calls.

    The magazine’s target audience is unknown. While Pratt has said she wants to start a magazine for women over 35, Stefani’s involvement suggests that they want to attract younger readers.
