Prince William: First In Line Of Succession, Second In Men’s Hearts

New poll shows gay men prefer Prince Harry
Thursday, October 16th, 2008

Prince William stepped out alone in London, England last night to get his party on at the Metropolitan Hotel and then the Whisky Mist bar and it looked like he was having a good time … but I suspect that he was crying a wee bit on the inside. Earlier in the day, results from a new poll came out that said that gay men prefer the younger Prince Harry over the heir apparent Prince Wills. Here are pics of Wills out in London last night:


Gay men would rather date Prince Harry than his brother William, according to a poll. More than a third those questioned expressed a desire for a romance with Harry while William received 23 per cent of the vote. A third of the single gay men said they would steer clear of both. William’s girlfriend Kate Middleton was named as the most lusted after royal date among the nation’s lesbians. The Prince Charming poll was conducted by dating website gay-PARSHIP.com and found that 23 per cent of lesbians wanted to date Miss Middleton compared with just 18 per cent who wanted to get close to Chelsy Davy. Five per cent said they would date both the girls but more than half said they did not fancy either. Adrian Gillan, spokesman for gay-PARSHIP, said: “This fraught romantic vote suggests divided royal loyalties. “Indeed, many gay male singles are so torn they say they would need to date both our young princes, whose female love interests prove only slightly less of a queer pull. “Being part of an inclusive, modern monarchy, William and Harry will be delighted that they and their close circle can arouse such strong emotions from Britain’s homosexual subjects.

LOL. I gotta say … it’s a tough choice. So, I put the question to you, dear readers … which of His Royal Highnesses do you prefer?


Wills or Harry? Harry or Wills? Rock the vote. Choose or lose. You decide.

Vicki B. Takes dVb To Spain

Boy, oh, boy!
Thursday, October 16th, 2008

Yesterday we saw pics of Vicki B. appearing at an in-store appearance in Germany to promote her denim line dVb. VB has already made her way to her former home Madrid, Spain to continue the dVb promo tour there … and she was still rockin’ the boyish look (tho, with sky-high stiletto heels) that she debuted in Dusseldorf. Here are a few pics of Vicki B. in Madrid earlier today:


I mean, I’m not really that interested in her over-priced jeans but I am still totally loving her new masculine look. That is not to say that VB looks mannish but I do think she looks well-styled and very put together. Actually, the clothes that Posh wore in Germany and in Spain look like outfits that might’ve come from David Beckham’s closet (tho with much tailoring). With those killer high heeled shoes, she looks like an absolute knock-out (I would just advise against the headband). I hope she keeps rockin’ this look cuz, as I said yesterday, I really think it suits her.

Michelle Williams And Spike Jonze Get Closer

Matilda Rose plays dress-up
Thursday, October 16th, 2008

It looks as if Michelle Williams and director/producer Spike Jonze are ready to take their semi-private relationship sorta-public. The pair attended the NY premiere of her new movie Synecdoche, New York (she stars, he produced) earlier this week and they were seen acting very amorously towards one another without care of who was watching. Now, we all know that Michelle Williams is a very private person — when it comes to her personal life, she always has been — so it really says something that she is willing to show public displays of affection for the special man in her life in plain view of the public’s watchful eye. Here is a pic of Michelle and Spike at the premiere of her movie this week and a couple pics of Michelle with her daughter Matilda (with the late Heath Ledger) out and about in NYC the day after her premiere:


After months of low-key dating, it seems Michelle Williams and Spike Jonze are finally ready to take their romance public. After attending a Cinema Society screening of their new film, Synecdoche, New York in Manhattan Wednesday night, the couple walked out of the auditorium with Jonze caressing Williams’ back and wrapping his arm around her waist. The pair held hands as they walked through the lobby, where they met up with Synecdoche costar Catherine Keener. While the two women chatted and munched on popcorn, Jonze snaked his arm around Williams’ waist again. “He couldn’t seem to keep his hands off her,” said an onlooker. “It was very cute.” But the sparks really started to fly later that night, when they headed to the Gramercy Hotel’s rooftop club for the Mulberry-sponsored afterparty. While the two – who have been romantically linked since this summer – talked with friends, they stood so close they were “practically spooning,” said one fellow guest. And later, when they decided to leave the bash at around 1 a.m., Williams and Jonze shared a mini makeout session – on their way to the elevator.

I am thrilled that Michelle Williams appears to have found a new person to get romantical with. Whether it’s fair or not, I tend to consider Michelle a very sad person … I’m glad to know that she’s getting some nookie at least. Hopefully it’ll help her demeanor. The pics of Michelle with Matilda are just too cute. That little girl’s adorableness just kills me. It looks like she is getting the start on the Halloween fun with that purple princess/fairy dress. It looks like life is very good for the Williams women these days.

Angelina Jolie Does The ‘Today’ Show

Confesses that she wants to adopt more children
Thursday, October 16th, 2008

Angelina Jolie made a live, in-person appearance on The Today Show on NBC this morning to do some promo work for her new movie Changeling. Somewhere along the way, interviewer Matt Lauer turned the conversation to the prospect of having or adopting more children … to which Angelina simple responded, “Yeah”. It looks like the Brangelina brood may be preparing to expand, again, at least by one more child in the very near future. Here are a few pics of Ange sitting with Matt Lauer on The Today Show earlier this morning:


Angelina Jolie said just one word: “Yeah.” It was delivered in a soft tone, adorned with a small smile and a wistful look as if she were already considering the joys of adding yet another child to her brood. There are six children now in the household she shares with partner Brad Pitt, and, Jolie told TODAY’s Matt Lauer Thursday in New York, the question isn’t whether they will adopt another child, but when that will happen. Born July 12, Jolie’s twins, Knox Léon and Vivienne Marcheline, are just three months old. “You can’t even start the process until any new children are at least six months old,” Jolie said, explaining that adoption agencies want to see how new children are fitting into a household. So the question, she said, is, “When is the right time to bring another child in?” According to the tabloids, the Pitt-Jolie partnership has been strained by the addition of the twins to four other children ranging in age from 2 to 7. If that is true, Jolie gave no sign of it. Lauer did not address the reports directly. Instead, he told Jolie of something she said in 2005, before she settled down with Pitt: “I’m better alone.” But Jolie doesn’t believe that anymore. “I met the right person,” she said, referring to Pitt. She started to add something, but caught herself, saying, “I’m not going to say anything that’s going to embarrass me. I don’t like being without him. I don’t love being alone like I used to be.” With six kids, that’s not a problem. Jolie all but melts when she talks about them. The twins, she said, are doing great, and the other children have welcomed them into the family. “We have so many children that they’re not really stunned anymore when kids come home,” she said. Her oldest, Maddox, 7, “is like the professional big brother. He’s done it so many times.”

Welp, it looks like big brother Maddox is gonna hafta prepare himself to welcome a new brother or sister very soon. Not that I have anything against all the adopting that Brangelina have done but it really must be a bit weird for the kids to have their family situation changed so dramatically whenever a new child shows up. At least when the fictional Brady Bunch characters had to deal with a bunch of new siblings they only had to deal with one major change all at once … and week after week we saw the fallout and hijinks that came from their situation. Now, of course real life is different from fictional TV situation comedies but my point is that the kids have to have some problems when their home life is constantly changing. Kids have problems when their home life never changes so … I dunno. I don’t know how I, as a kid, would’ve handled getting a new sibling (or two) almost ever year. In any event, it’s clear that these kids have heaped on them an immeasurable amount of love and devotion from both of their parents. In the end, I guess that’s all that matters. So now the question becomes when and from whence will come the newest member(s) of the Brangelina brood? I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

Mayerston Reunite To Celebrate John Mayer’s Birthday

Lurve is in the air ... again?
Thursday, October 16th, 2008

Well, well now … it looks like we may have to un-Peace the Spork Out the celeb couple known as Mayerston, especially if all the recent reports about the couple are to be believed. Over the past week, there have been reports that John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston have been hooking up clandestinely in Boston, MA and NYC, NY but until now the pair have not been photographed together. Actually they still haven’t been photographed together but Tuesday night they were snapped in very close proximity ahead of a new report that the couple reconnected last night to celebrate John Mayer’s 31st birthday (which is today). Here are pics of John and Jen making their way out separately (but right after the other) at the Sunset Tower Hotel here in LA earlier this week:


John Mayer rang in his 31st birthday at exclusive Beverly Hills cigar bar Grand Havana Room October 15 – with back-on girlfriend Jennifer Aniston by his side. The relaxed pair hung out on a private outdoor patio for several hours late in the evening. Mayer, at one point, affectionately stroked Aniston’s hair. The singer – whose actual birthday is October 16 – and the Marley and Me actress, 39, began a whirlwind romance in April, but split in August. On October 10, however, the two appeared to be back on. They took in a Ray LaMontagne concert in Boston and then spent the next couple of days in New York City before flying to Los Angeles on a private plane. Another public date followed on October 13, where they dined and drank wine with three pals at Sunset Tower’s Tower Bar. “They were holding hands at one point and seemed very much back on,” a witness tells Us.

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. I usually immediately discount the first reports of a couple’s reunion but with each subsequent sighting, the story seems more clear. It’s very telling the Jen would come out for John’s birthday celebration … which adds credence to the earlier reports that the pair were seen on dates back on the East Coast. Does this mean that Mayerston are going to plunge headlong back into a relationship with one another? Lawd, I hope so. Individually, they are each so uninteresting. Together they make a very nice couple and I hope they are able to rekindle their failed romance in order to give things another try. After all, what do they each have to lose?

David Has Landed

The TV Guide
Thursday, October 16th, 2008

Well … I managed to get my apartment somewhat in reasonable shape for David’s arrival last night. I spent most of the day purging and putting things away. While it looks much less like a disaster area, I still think it’s only presentable to the person who has to love me unconditionally no matter what ;) Besides, his living space in NYC isn’t always in impeccable shape so I was quite content with how tidy I managed to get my place.

Nothing major occurred last night, I picked up David from the airport and then we watched the Presidential Debate and Project Runway. I can assure you, we had a great time :)

No big plans for tonight, I think we’re gonna play it by ear. I have to get my hair re-did this afternoon so that’s pretty much all that’s on the agenda right now.
