Love, Washington style
- - - - - - - - - - - -
Nov. 30, 1999 |
"All accomplishments are the result of team effort. But none has been so profound and total in my life as the team of Olson and Olson," she writes of her husband, fellow Washington insider Ted Olson. "We became engaged during the Vince Foster phase of the investigation, got married in between depositions and hearings, and heard about the first FBI file while on our honeymoon." Did you hear the latest on Vince, and will you marry me? I do, now let's get back to the hearings. - - - - - - - - - - - - No Gilda-ed cage for Warren "Of all the women Warren could have slept with, Gilda probably wouldn't have let him -- just because he just wasn't quite funny enough." -- Chevy Chase, dissecting an old photo of Warren Beatty getting cozy with Gilda Radner at a "Saturday Night Live" party, in Rolling Stone. - - - - - - - - - - - - Pure Portman Maybe they should have called the film "Anything but That." Thanks to objections from her famously protective parents, you won't see Natalie Portman au naturel in "Anywhere but Here." Could co-star Susan Sarandon have been whispering in the young star's ear? "I reckon people don't even hear what you're saying for the first 30 seconds if you're on screen nude," Sarandon recently told the London Evening Standard. "It's hard to be naked in a scene and not be upstaged by your nipples." Amy Reiter Amy Reiter's column appears daily on the People site, Monday through Friday.
Got a hot tip? Tell Amy! - - - - - - - - - - - - Pamela Hyytiainen Lee? "I guess he changed his name to Anderson because the locals could not pronounce Hyytiainen." -- Terttu Suopellonmaki, a Finnish relative of Pamela Anderson, telling the BBC why the V.I.P. star's great-grandfather opted for a new moniker after emigrating to Canada. - - - - - - - - - - - - Don't stop till you get enough! First there was Prince. Then came little Paris. And now, Michael Jackson says he's ready for more ... eight more. "I told my father I'm going to match his record," Jackson tells TV Guide. "He had 10." Never mind the matter of finding a mother for his children, now that he and Debbie Rowe have split. The king of "pops" says rearing his kiddies on his own is "so much more exciting than I ever imagined it would be." His only regret? "I wish I had done it earlier." Oh, and by the way, he says, those pesky rumors that he and Rowe aren't the biological parents of their brood are "total garbage. It's trash and just not true." That's HIStory, and he's sticking to it. - - - - - - - - - - - - Juicy bits Attention: Vegas dealers. You'd better brush up on your French. Jerry Lewis is set to headline at Orleans Hotel in January -- his first Las Vegas gig since the early '90s. Le funnyman est back! Yet another definition for "teabagging." Veteran fashion photographer David Bailey is taking a break from snappin' supermodels to focus on a teabag. A British tea company has commissioned Bailey to snap a whopping photo of its prize bag. "Teabag and glamorous are not words you'd expect to find in the same sentence," Bailey told the U.K. Mirror. Of course, anyone who saw John Waters' "Pecker" might take issue with that. The Ozzman had already cometh to Beverly Hills, but now he's trading up for bigger digs. According to the Los Angeles Times, Ozzy Osbourne has just plunked down $6.5 million for an 11,000-square-foot, five-bedroom Mediterranean-style home in the exclusive California nabe. He's planning to snuggle in to his new pad after the Black Sabbath reunion tour wraps in late December. Never say die. After his arrest for heroin and cocaine possession in July, you'd think Leif Garrett would take his own old advice: "Do-do run-run-run, do-do run-run." But the '70s teen heartthrob is trying to make another go of his left-for-dead entertainment career. He recently belted out some tunes at L.A.'s Viper Room and is gearing up for a "Suddenly Susan" appearance on Dec. 6. Maybe he and Brooke Shields can compare notes on growing out their old feathered hair ... Looks like Al Gore's got the Uptown Girl vote all locked up. Christie Brinkley has stepped forward to support the veep for prez. Guess Naomi Wolf's doing something right. Sylvester Stallone is being sued by five of his former cooks and cleaners who claim he fired them for breaking household rules forbidding them to look directly into his eyes; speak (or listen) to his mother, astrologer and rumpologist Jackie Stallone; or remain in a room after he entered it. Sly's wife, Jennifer Flavin, also allegedly required the help to search guests' suitcases for stolen goods and to submit to daily searches themselves. "Sylvester Stallone is no Rocky or Rambo in real life," Ellis Rubin, the workers' lawyer, told the Associated Press. Could there be a heart of stone behind those droopy eyes?
