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.
