I’m so sorry that Kaiser is still recovering today and can’t cover this story, because we definitely need to get her take on it. Last night was the big finale of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. I haven’t been keeping up with the show, but I’ve read that it wasn’t as explosive as it the finale last year, which is good news I guess considering how uncomfortable it was. Well on “Watch What Happens Live,” Brandi Glanville got asked about the “most famous person” she’s hooked up with and she admitted to a week long fling with Gerard Butler. She says it was really good too, and rated him an “11.” We heard rumors about this in late August. Brandi was seen making out with Gerard at a “beach party” on August 27, and then in early September US Weekly ran a story that Brandi and Gerard were “friends with benefits,” well the benefits were short-lived, because Brandi admitted that they only lasted one very fun week together. Is that Butler’s limit or did Brandi blow it because she blabbed?

If you missed Watch What Happens Live last night on Bravo, then you missed a hook-up bombshell. Guests Lisa Vanderpump and Brandi Glanville of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills had to play a game, “Plead the Fifth,” and Brandi admitting to hooking up with a true Hollywood hunk!

“I have three questions,” host Andy Cohen explained on his show,” Watch What Happens Live. “You may ‘Plead the Fifth’ on just one question.”

1.) “If you could have ten minutes alone in a room with LeAnn Rimes and suffer no repercussions, what would you do or say to her?”

“Plead the Fifth,” Brandi said.

2.) “When was the last time you watched porn?”

“I don’t watch porn,” she said. “A year ago. Maybe. Randomly.

3.) “Who is the most famous person, besides Eddie Cibrian, that you have hooked up with?”

“I can’t Plead the Fifth,” Brandi said with a laugh. “Uh, Gerard Butler.”

Andy couldn’t control his excitment and had to keep asking Brandi more questions on her Hollywood hook up.

“Was that more than once? Was it a relationship?”

“No, no, no. It wasn’t a one nighter, it was like a little week of fun.”

Brandi explained the hook up happened in the last year over the summer. So, on a scale from 1 to 10 how fun was it?

“Eleven,” Brandi said with a big smile.

I bet Butler is a hell of a lot of fun in bed, but we’ve seen some evidence and he doesn’t seem to be well endowed, not that it makes a “big” difference, I’m just putting that out there. I think that after learning that Kaiser moved on from Butler to Fassbender.

Good for Brandi for getting hers though. Not many of us would turn that down at all. You know that LeAnn is going to have a sh*t fit over this on Twitter, whether she refers to it directly or not. Maybe she already is reacting the only way she knows how – by being territorial. She’s been calling Brandi’s kids her bonus boys and getting her panties in a twist over people calling her out on it.

It’s been pretty well established that Cameron Diaz has been hooking up with Diddy. Their first go-around was back in 2008 and they worked hard to keep it a secret, although Diddy was dying to brag about it. Cameron and Diddy have been together casually since at least October, which is when we first got wind of their relationship. Kaiser thinks Diddy is gross, and I understand that opinion definitely, but I see the guy’s appeal. He’s a douche of the highest order, but he seems to lavish attention and gifts on his women, when he’s not cheating on them. Diddy has a longterm girlfriend, singer Cassie, and apparently he hasn’t ditched her for Cameron at all. He just took Cassie out on a date earlier this month, and then hit the Golden Globes parties with Cameron less than a week later, where they were all over each other. This isn’t the first time they’ve made out in public.

Though Cameron Diaz, 39, and Sean “Diddy” Combs, 42, have been discreetly hooking up off and on since 2008, the down-low duo finally went public January 13 at the booze-filled CAA gala in West Hollywood. “She was straddling him,” a witness at the Soho House party tells Hot Stuff. Her hair was all crazy, her makeup was smeared and they made out in front of everyone. She was acting like a teenager!” And two days later, a witness saw Diddy with his hand on Diaz’s leg at the Golden Globe afterparty at Sunset Tower. While Diaz’s rep denies the makeout, and insider tells Us, “They sleep together, but it’s not serious.” In fact, Diddy took his model girlfriend of three years, Cassie, 25, on a romantic dinner date at NYC’s Brasserie Cognac on January 7!

[From US Weekly, print edition, January 30, 2012]

I have no problem with Cameron hooking up with Diddy. My issue is with the fact that he still keeps his 25 year-old longterm girlfriend on the hook. This is exactly what Diddy did to the mother of his twins when he was hooking up with Sienna Miller. Maybe Cameron thinks it’s fun and casual and she doesn’t have to worry about Diddy’s relationship since he doesn’t seem to be. It makes her look so dumb, though. She obviously doesn’t care how she looks, or she wouldn’t be making out with Diddy at industry parties in the first place.

This is one weird ass story that I have to repeat. The mental image has been burning in my brain for too long now, and now I must inflict it on you. The National Enquirer has excerpts this week from Hollywood bodyguard Lee Weaver’s new memoir. In an earlier story today, Kaiser mentioned an anecdote the guy told about Lindsay Lohan yelling at her dealer and nearly getting shot. Weaver also worked for Eddie Murphy and Sylvester Stallone, and he has a mouth-dropping story of a hookup Stallone had with Sandra Bullock in a hotel room. The time frame is in the early 90s, when the two were filming Demolition Man together. Apparently Sly invited Sandra up to his room, they stripped down to their underwear and rolled around while pretending to re-enact Rocky. Really. The thing is, I thought that the bodyguard actually witnessed this, but this is what Sandra told the bodyguard about what happened. I’m thinking she probably made up this whole scenario to try and explain away the fact that she hooked up with Sly.

Weaver shares a hilarious story about the night Stallone invited his co-star Sandra Bullock up to his room, but instead of hooking up with her, the two stripped down to their underwear and had a “Rocky” moment!

Weaver says that when Sandra went up to Stallone’s room, Sly ducked into the bathroom and came out wearing boxer shorts.

“I’m a lady, but I got excited because he has a beautiful body,” Weaver says Sandra told him.

And according to the bodyguard, Sandra then went into the bathroom, came out in her underwear – and that’s when things got weird!

Sandra reportedly told Weaver that Stallone started “jumping around like he was in a boxing ring.”

The actress shared: “I said, ‘OK, I can play around with him.’ As soon as he said, ‘Ding! Ding!’ he turned into Rocky, like in his movie.

“That’s the thing that bothered me the most because he was punching me in the arm! He grabbed me and we rolled on the carpet. I’m not going to lie… it did turn me on. Until he said ‘Ding! Ding!’ one more time, and right then, he screamed out, ‘Adrian!’”

[From The National Enquirer, print edition, December 19, 2011]

So Sandra claimed to have had this bizarre boxing/wrestling session with Sly and admitted to the bodyguard that she was turned on? Ok I guess. That’s just out there and sounds totally made up, although I bet Sly is a weird duck like that. Sandra was around 28 in 1992 (Demolition Man came out in 1993) and Sly was 46. He was also single, having divorced Brigitte Nielsen in 1987 and not remarrying again until 1997. I wonder if Sandra and Sly ever hooked up after that, or if that was the only night they “wrestled.” That story cracks me the hell up and it sounds straight from Sandra’s imagination. That’s one way to explain a one night stand.

You can learn more of the strange things this guy witnessed at leetweaver.com

Here’s a photo of Weaver with Sandra Bullock, from his website:

We’ve heard rumors for a few weeks that Cameron Diaz and Diddy are hooking up again. They were together back in 2008, but took pains to keep it quiet – at least Cameron did. Diddy gave an interview to Playboy in December, 2009 in which he said he had secretly dated a “famous actress” but wasn’t going to say who it was. You could tell that he was just dying to spill the beans but was hoping to get another chance with the actress he wouldn’t name. Here’s what he said at the time:

COMBS: Yeah, there was a young lady who’s an actress. She’s famous. I liked her, so I was willing to do whatever I had to do. I told her, “I will sneak up the side of the building to see you.” I was persistent.

PLAYBOY: Did you get to hang out?

COMBS: We started spending time together, but we were prisoners of our celebrity. She took me to dinner after we got to know each other and hit me with a line that was straight out of the movies. She said, “You know this will never work, right?” [laughs] I knew she was right.

PLAYBOY: Who was it?

COMBS: The only person I’m gonna tell is God. If he says I can’t get into heaven I may whisper it in his ear. She was so cool the way she let me down softly, and she offered me a ride back to my hotel.

PLAYBOY: Sienna Miller’s name will get linked to that story. You know that, right?

COMBS: I can clear that up right now. It wasn’t her. This was going to shake up the world. It would have been a Puff and J. Lo situation, part two.

So that makes me think that Diaz dumped Diddy nicely back in 2008 when they were linked over the summer and that he was still hung up on her a year later. She probably gave him another chance this year when she was lonely post A-Rod, but she’s still not willing to be associated with him. US Weekly claims Cameron and Diddy are hooking up, that they’ve been spotted all over the place and that “she’ll booty call him,” but the official story, the one that People is reporting, has them meeting up for some sort of “project.” Here’s US Weekly’s story:

The actress, 39, has reunited with Sean “Diddy” Combs, her off-and-on hookup since 2008, when Combs pursued her during Oscars week, a source tells Us Weekly.

“Since then, when she’s single, she’ll booty call him,” adds another insider.

And now, they’ve gone public: Nuzzling in a booth at NYC’s Catch on Oct. 24, the two were “inseparable — they had their hands all over each other,” an eyewitness tells Us.

Two weeks later, at a Nov. 11 lunch at Scarpetta in Beverly Hills, they were “making out, acting romantic,” says a source. (Reps for both stars say Diaz and Combs, 42, are “just friends” and meeting to discuss a possible comedy film project.)

One hitch: Combs is still dating his model girlfriend of three years, Cassie, 25. Says a friend, “Diddy’s single whenever there’s a better offer on the table!”

[From US Weekly]

People has Cameron’s rep telling them “Cameron and Sean are longtime friends and fans of one another’s work. They have been seen together recently because they are developing a film project.” Mmhmmm. I know Diddy is a flashy egotistical douche of the highest order, but I would love it if this fling with Cameron got serious and if they went public. I think when Diddy hooks up with a woman who challenges him he really steps up his game and tries to be a good boyfriend, as much as he can. These two seem really fun together, to me, and I want them to be a real item.

It looks like whatever fake romance J.Lo was trying to cook up with Bradley Cooper in the tabloids has either fizzled out or never was. Lopez, 42, has been sleeping with one of her backup dancers, a 24 year-old squat shaved kid named Casper Smart. Multiple outlets have this story with insider “sources” in Lopez’s camp to confirm the news and add details. It’s predictable, and it’s all about how J.Lo is sexy and desirable. The story has a whiff of haughty desperation about it, just like J.Lo. The stories do acknowledge that it’s just a fling for her, though, a fling that she’s more than willing to confirm.

A few months after she and husband Marc Anthony announced they were splitting, the American Idol judge appears to be logging time with a new man: Los Angeles-based dancer Casper Smart.

“Yes, they are dating and having a good time,” a source tells PEOPLE of the pair. “They’ve been getting more open with their flirting for weeks.”

Smart, who has appeared in Glee, Step Up 3D and How I Met Your Mother, reportedly also dances at Los Angeles-area nightclubs.

Smart also reported that he and Lopez worked together on Friday night, posting on his Facebook page: “In Palo Alto Bout to do a show w/ Jennifer Lopez for some1s birthday.”

Lopez had been most recently linked to Bradley Cooper.

As for her budding romance with Casper, another source describes it as “a fun fling.” Says the source: “It’s not meant to turn into anything more.”

A rep for Lopez had no comment.

This wouldn’t be the first time Lopez, 42, has been romantically involved with a dancer. She was married to choreographer and dancer Cris Judd in 2001, and the couple split in 2002.

[From People]

Yes Lopez’s rep had “no comment,” but People still got a “source” to tell them that “they are dating and having a good time.” Both TMZ and The Insider also have confirmation from sources, along with additional details. My favorite quotes are in US Weekly, where Lopez’s people try to explain away her “breakup” with Bradley Cooper:

Lopez “liked the thrill and the fact that Bradley has been pursuing her,” but a source says she “has really been trying to concentrate on her kids and work. But Bradley has been especially eager.”

So Lopez has been “trying to concentrate on her kids and work,” so she rejected the movie star and picked a no-name backup dancer 18 years younger than she is. I’m so sure that’s exactly how it happened. Is she going to keep dating 20-something lovers post divorce, just like Madonna? At least she’s not marrying them yet.

Just for a week, I would like to have Cameron Diaz’s life but none of the consequences. Like as gross as it may sound to some of you, I’d love to sleep with Diddy and not have to worry about catching anything or having to see him again or having to deal with people judging me for sleeping with him. He just strikes me as a fun hookup and like he’d be freaky. I’d also like to sleep with Jude Law under the exact same conditions and for pretty much the same reasons. So in one way Cameron Diaz is a lucky bitch, but here we are gossiping about her for doing something that we (well I) would do anyway. Cameron was spotted in a “private” VIP booth at a club in NY with Diddy. These two had a very low-key under the radar hookup in 2008 that Diddy totally hinted at and really wanted to blab about, but didn’t. So Cameron gave him another go-round I bet. She’s all over the place post split with A-Rod and good for her?

Cameron Diaz isn’t hiding out following her split with Alex Rodriguez. She partied with Sean “Diddy” Combs while closely guarded at Catch on Monday night. A spy reports, “Cameron and Diddy were surrounded by security in a private booth.” The two are said to be good friends, and Diddy is still with his longtime girlfriend Cassie. Also there were Nas, Maxwell, Cuba Gooding Jr., Brian Greenberg, Lake Bell, Jeff Gordon and NBA star David Lee.

[From NY Post]

We all know how loyal Diddy is to his “longtime girlfriends,” but maybe nothing happened there and they’re just two ex lovers partying together again. Maybe she’s not-so secretly having a romantic cross-continent hookup with Jude Law. Or maybe she gets around and she’s unapologetic about it. I kind of admire that. She needs to ditch Goop though.

On Monday, a few outlets reported that Jennifer Lopez and Bradley Cooper had gone on a “second” date, and the collective response was a “meh.” Their “first” date was denied by to People as just a business meeting, and the breathless details of their second date just sounded like a publicist’s plant, particularly Lopez’s publicist. It was all about how desirable Lopez was and how Cooper was chasing after her. Well the tabloids have more of the same this week, with the Lopez/Cooper pairing taking the cover of US magazine. It sounds ridiculous to me and unlikely. I just don’t see Cooper as either going after Lopez, or being particularly interesting or suave while he does it. He comes across as more vanilla than charismatic, except when he speaks French, I’ll give him that.

Here’s more from OK! because US didn’t put their story online yet. Someone is trying to make their ex jealous:

When Jennifer Lopez and Bradley Cooper dined at high-end eatery Per Se in NYC last month, they insisted it was, to quote The Godfather, “strictly business.” Guess that depends on how you define “business”: In the wee hours of Oct. 15, the pair was seen in Bradley’s Mercedes — and sources confirm the Hangover star was driving J.Lo home to her Calabasas, Calif., estate after a steamy weekend at his Venice Beach pad.

“They were singing to the radio,” an eyewitness tells OK!, “laughing having a good time, like they’ve been hooking up for a while. They were so relaxed and natural”

Indeed, sources close to J.Lo, 42, and Bradley, 36, say a romance is heating up.

“They have tremendous chemistry, and Bradley’s totally smitten with her,” an insider tells OK!. Adds another, “They can’t keep their hands off each other.”

J.Lo, of course, recently split with husband Marc Anthony, 43, while Bradley broke up with his last serious girlfriend, Renée Zellweger, 42, in March. “Jennifer is so different from Renée,” the insider adds. “But Bradley loves exotic, dark women — and loves that she’s powerful and strong-willed.”

But as American Idol co-judge Steven Tyler points out, there’s more to J.Lo than a swaggering glam diva. “Behind all that,” Steven tells OK!, “she’s very sweet.”

For her part, J.Lo seems equally taken with the affable, blue-eyed Bradley.

“Jennifer says with him, she can tick off all the boxes,” the insider notes. “He’s sensitive, handsome and intelligent. Plus, he dotes on her and has incredible charm. For the first time in years, Jennifer feels appreciated and listened to.”

Meanwhile, Marc — father of the their twins Max and Emme, 3 — is not pleased to see J.Lo’s social life picking up.

“He’s holding out hope that they’ll get back together,” a source tells OK!. “He’s hurt and jealous and hopes Bradley will just be a brief fling.”

Maybe Marc shouldn’t hold his breath.

“The passion between Jennifer and Bradley is so strong,” the insider notes. “She’s telling people he’s definitely long-term boyfriend material.”

[From OK! Magazine, received via e-mail]

Last night I watched Entertainment Tonight, because I’m trying to branch out my media diet like switching tater tots for french fries, and they had a whole segment on Lopez. They covered her new Latin reality talent search show with Marc, the bulk of it filmed before their breakup, along with helping promote her new bedding line for Kohls. I keep seeing commercials with this woman, and she’s just all over the place. Someone wants her to “happen” again, and they’re doing a decent job at it, in my opinion. This romance with Bradley Cooper is ridiculous though, whether it is or isn’t happening. They don’t seem like the other’s “type” at all, but it could be a rebound thing for Lopez. She’s milking it for all it’s worth too.

In a new interview during a promotional appearance for Kohl’s, Lopez played coy about her potential romance. She said “As a mom, and having children, right now they’re my first priority. And because of them, I wouldn’t ever comment on anything until I’m in a serious relationship again. It would just be confusing for them and it would be unfair. And so at the end of the day, it’s about them.” Translation: my publicist will do the dirty work for me while I try to fuel speculation.

Also, how “secret” is Lopez’s romance with Cooper considering that just about every outlet has been reporting the details?

It was just over a month ago that Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lopez were spotted out together on what may or may not have been a date. Both US Weekly and TMZ reported it like it was some romantic dinner, and like Cooper was chasing after J.Lo. Then People ran a story claiming it was just a business dinner. Huffpo’s Rob Shuter claimed that Lopez set Cooper up for the rumors by presenting it to him like a project meeting over dinner, and then having her publicist leak the story to the tabloids. That version sounded the most likely to me, given all the conflicting stories about it. Plus I just don’t think Lopez is Cooper’s “type.” (If he has a type and assuming his relationship with Renee Zellweger was legit.)

Whatever the case last month, it looks like these two (and their publicists) are on the same page now. People Magazine, the publicists’ mouthpiece, is running this story and they have “exclusive” photos of the two together, with Lopez laughably trying to hide her face. Since when does People run exclusive paparazzi photos?

Bradley Cooper was seen in Los Angeles Saturday with a woman paparazzi say is Jennifer Lopez and who our exclusive photos reveal to be a woman who sure looks an awful lot like the American Idol judge.

A source close to Lopez says the two spent time together on Saturday. Reps for both did not respond for comment.

This isn’t the first time Lopez, 42 has been seen with the Hangover star, 37. The pair had dinner last month at Per Se in New York City but quickly asserted that the meeting was nothing more than just business – but was it?

“After their date in New York, Bradley and Jennifer stayed in touch,” says a source close to Lopez.

The source also says: “She does like his attention, and it makes her feel good that he seems so into her. She has a fun time with Bradley and he makes her laugh.”

Adds another source: “She likes him.”

[From People]

So now People is reporting their last outing as a “date,” when they last claimed it “was all business,” according to some insider source. And of course Bradley is “so into” J.Lo. since no one can resist her! I’m not buying this in any way, but a lot of you weren’t buying this guy’s long term relationship with Zellweger, either.I checked both of their IMDB pages to see if either of them have any movies coming out soon, but there’s nothing they could be promoting with this relationship – except for keeping their names in the press. At least this dude seems complicit in it too.

Sometimes I get confused with all the random Hollywood hookups, especially lately when they seem to involve the two Ryans, Olivia Wilde and Blake Lively. (You could also throw Scarlett Johansson and Justin Timberlake in there.) Like both of the Ryans have allegedly hooked up with Blake and Olivia (not together although that would be hot), and we’ve heard rumors about the Ryans and about Olivia and Blake with various other people. It just feels like a spin the bottle game among this group. So that’s why I’m not surprised by this story that Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are getting hot and heavy in the immediate wake of Blake’s breakup with Leonardo DiCaprio. We’ve already heard that they were together but I don’t expect to last. In a month or two it will blend together in my mind with all the other hookups among these people.

Hollywood Life has the news that Blake and Ryan were seen making out at a train station in Boston, where Blake was catching a 5am train back to New York. It was allegedly a goodbye makeout sess after a weekend holed up in Ryan’s Boston apartment.

Blake stayed the weekend at Ryan’s Boston apartment and our eyewitness says when Ryan dropped Blake off at Boston’s Back Bay Station on Oct.3 they couldn’t keep their hands off each other!

What breakup? Blake Lively isn’t sitting around crying over her recent split from Leonardo DiCaprio. We have an eyewitness who says that after the Gossip Girl shacked up at Ryan Reynold‘s apartment in the Back Bay neighborhood of Boston, they were making out when he took her to catch her 5am train!

“Blake isn’t upset or fazed by the breakup with Leo at all,” our source says. “When Ryan took Blake to catch her train back to NYC they were making out and looked really happy together. Blake was wearing a big hat and it fell off as she made out with Ryan on the escalator at the train station. It was really early and he was even wheeling her suitcase for her! He wanted to make sure she caught the train so he waited until she got on.”

Ryan and Blake reportedly ran into each other at the Radiohead concert in NYC. When they both realized that they needed to be in Boston for the weekend they decided to take the ritzy Acela train together. Ryan is in Boston shooting his upcoming flick R.I.P.D. and Blake needed to be at a cooking event at upscale sushi eatery O Ya. Ironically Ryan’s ex-wife Scarlett Johansson was reportedly with Ryan at the concert when he ran into Blake.

“They kept kissing on the platform and looked like they were a couple,” our source says. “It’s clear she’s over Leo, but as for how serious she is with Ryan? Who knows.”

We reached out to both Blake and Ryan’s reps and have yet to hear back.

[From Hollywood Life]

All the commenters at Hollywood Life are saying “pics or it didn’t happen,” but I could get how they could be spotted and someone would be too shy or too mesmerized to take a clear picture. Or this could be fan fiction, either way.

As Kaiser is always saying, Blake’s got game. She’s dating a dude whose career is on the wane, though, instead of her last boyfriend who was a big player in Hollywood. That’s one way to see it, although most women would jump at the chance to get with Reynolds. He strikes me as a lot more fun than DiCaprio, and as a really hot rebound. Plus I think he’s funny and I like how manic and self deprecating he is. He would be entertaining as a boyfriend.

This is a still from Green Lantern, the movie that starred Blake and Ryan and barely earned back its production budget this summer.

So Elisabetta Canalis got voted off Dancing with The Stars on the second week, followed by another chick who could have just as easily dated George Clooney given his standards, Kristin Cavallari. (Spoilers – oops too late.) In her most recent interview, with In Touch, Elisabetta revealed that she had no real game plan post-DWTS and she may have even hinted that she was ready to return to Italy. She said “I just want to move on… I’m really just doing what I’ve done for years before — my job, and that’s television. I had this opportunity to do my job here in this country.” So did she mean that the opportunity had passed and that she was moving back to Italy? She may have just screwed up the tense or something. (No real offense to her English as I’ve had to speak another language out of necessity and it’s a bitch.)

Elisabetta may have been vague about her plans, but somehow she hatched a classic famewhore move – a date at a Hollywood hot spot! Only she didn’t score an A or B-lister, she was spotted out with a guy who got killed off “True Blood” two seasons ago, Mehcad Brooks. That’s ok, Mehcad makes up in hotness what he lacks in fame. My estimation of him has lowered considerably now that I know he went out with Elisabetta, though. Here’s more:

Mehcad Brooks might be the next George Clooney … maybe … because the “True Blood” star had a romantic dinner with Clooney’s ex Elisabetta Canalis this week … and TMZ has the video to prove it!

The two dined at STK steakhouse in L.A. — and after what seems like a date, they BOTH left in Mehcad’s SUV.

[From TMZ]

TMZ has video of these two getting Mehcad’s car from the valet and when the paparazzi asked how they met he’s all “we didn’t meet, I don’t know what you’re talking about.” He smiles and seems happy enough for the attention, though. I guess he’s starring on USA’s “Necessary Roughness” now, so he has another steady gig on television. Maybe he could find some work for Elisabetta! We know how much she wants to be an actress despite lacking even a sliver of talent.
