While filming Quentin Tarantino’s movie about World War II, Inglourious Basterds, superdad Brad Pitt offered up some unconventional hygiene tips for his sometimes smelly costars.
Pitt’s costar and pal Eli Roth stated at Saturday’s Spike TV Guys Choice 2009 in Los Angeles,
“He shared that when you’re sweating and don’t have time to take a shower, you just take a baby wipe and rub it under your armpits.
After a scene, Brad had to get next to me for a close-up shot, and he said, ‘Damn, you’re ripe. I said, ‘I didn’t have time to shower.’ He said, ‘Baby wipes, man, baby wipes.’ “
When it came to Pitt’s pits, Roth said the leading man explained,
“I got six kids. All you’ve got to do is just take them, a couple quick wipes under the pits. Man, I’m getting [peed] on all day. I don’t have time to take a shower.”
Clearly, I couldn’t make this story up — it’s just too believable.
Mel Gibson’s wife Robyn has just filed legal papers to divorce Mel Gibson, her husband of 28 years, citing “irreconcilable differences.” Pretty ironic — Robyn signed the papers the day before Good Friday. [see documents]
Sources claim there is no prenuptial agreement — they were married in 1980, before Mel Gibson amassed a fortune estimated at $900 million back in 2006. Under the laws of California, community property — which includes earnings — is divided 50/50.
The Gibsons have 7 children, but only one — Tom, who turns 10 tomorrow — is a minor. In Robyn’s legal papers, filed this morning in L.A. County Superior Court, she seeks joint physical and legal custody of Tom.
Robyn is also asking for spousal support and attorneys fees.
Robyn lists the date of separation as “to be determined.” This is important, because earnings generally cease to be community property when the couple separates. There could be a skirmish over this. We’re told the couple grew increasingly apart over the last few years, especially since Mel’s drunk driving arrest in 2006.
There have been reports that Mel has been involved with another woman, which the actor denies, but we’re told the reasons for the divorce go beyond any third party. I’m putting my money on the two bimbos pictures with Mel above.
George Clooney has agreed to come back to the show that launched his career: ER.
Sources close to the series said that ER co-creator John Wells has ordered a closed set to keep Clooney’s appearance under wraps.
It’s not known how many episodes will feature Clooney as the show films its final season. Neither NBC nor Warner Bros. reps would comment, nor did Clooney’s publicist.
Clooney, himself, denied reports last March he was returning.
Clooney’s Dr. Doug Ross was last seen on ER in a 2000 cameo walk-through in a remote lake scene with Ross’s ex-Juliana Marguilies.
Clooney is the most famous ER alum and Wells has always wanted him to return for the show’s last season. The 15th season was extended by an extra four episodes by NBC executives last week.
Leonardo DiCaprio has been known for espousing anti-romantic sentiment in the past — but now, the “Body of Lies” star is singing a new tune about love.
“I want to get married and have children,” the 33-year-old actor tells Parade magazine. “In saying that, I realize I am contradicting everything I’ve said before. I absolutely believe in marriage.”
DiCaprio had previously been quoted as saying he had “few emotions” and had “never been in love.” He’s now been attached to supermodel Bar Rafaeli for the past two years, and chalks up his old feelings about relationships to young ignorance. “No, I don’t agree with any of that,” Leo says of his old feelings. “It sounds like the ignorance of youth to me. When did I say that? Three or four years ago? Hey, we grow up real fast.”
Leo and pal Russell Crowe open in “Body of Lies,” hitting theatres October 10.
Smith brought in $80 million last year. Cameron Diaz was the top earning actress with $50 million. I love reporting on celebrity paychecks, it’s absolutely ridiculous how much they earn.
The top 5 earning celebrity men in Hollywood are:
1. Will Smith - $80 million
2. Johnny Depp - $72 million
3. Eddie Murphy - $55 million
4. Mike Myers - $55 million
5. Leonardo DiCaprio - $45 million
The top 5 earning celebrity women in Hollywood are:
1. Cameron Diaz - $50 million
2. Keira Knightley - $32 million
3. Jennifer Aniston - $27 million
4. Reese Witherspoon - $25 million
5. Gwenyth Paltrow - $25 million
How is it possible that Eddie Murphy earned that much, when we have the likes of “Meet Dave” as our most recent example of his work. The same goes for “The Love Guru” and Mike Myers.
Avril Lavigne sex tape…eh…why not! Lavigne has possibly joined the celebrity sex tape for press train.
It is really more like a sex clip. For less than a minutes a chick with Avril-like extensions has sex with a man while listening to her song “Don’t Tell Me.”
I am not sure what logic this is to assume that because she resembles the body type of Avril and is listening to one of her own songs, that she must be the bitchy Lavigne.
Besides who listens to their own music while humping? That is what is weird about this.
Brad Pitt is talking about his split from Jennifer Aniston, saying he did all he could to painlessly end their relationship before he started romancing Angelina Jolie. Pitt and Jolie met while filming ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith,’ but Brad insists nothing happened with Angie out of respect for Jennifer.
He tells American magazine V,
“The most important thing to me about that time was for Jen and me to figure out if… we didn’t want to go on with any outside influence: `Is this where we get off? Have we taken this as far as we wanted to go?’ “Those questions had to be answered before an attraction to Angie could be answered.” He adds, “I don’t know how better to have handled it. The thing guiding me then was you don’t know how many days you have, and you need life to be everything you need it to be.”
Sounds like that’s exactly how Aniston felt about the situation when she spoke to Vanity Fair right after their separation:
“I would be a robot if I said I didn’t feel moments of anger, of hurt, of embarrassment,” Aniston said.
And no one can forget the pics in W Magazine where Brangelina were portrayed playing house. Yet, Brad tells Details “Jen and I still maintain a deep friendship and have a lot of life together that isn’t erased in any way.”
Maybe it just fades a little with every picture of you, Angie, and the four kids parading around the world looking like the perfect family.
