Jewel leaving the Ivy restaurant on crutches in Los Angeles

Sometimes I question what I'm doing due to the lack of clarity of payment. I constantly have self doubt. It is interesting how "rewards" "acknowledgements" and money seem to boast self esteem. I guess we all need continuous validation.

KAT Gets JOHN LEGEND Oscar Scoop

I ran into multitalented singer JOHN LEGEND a few moments ago with his lovely lady and he gave me some great info about what he is up to...e

Prince Frederick Blindly Looses Zsa Zsa's $$$$$$$

Prince Frederick de Zsa Zsa wasn't so charming yesterday after being asked about the multi-million dollar investment lost that he and his wife suffered. Reports vary from estimated $4.5 - $10 million loss as a result from being duked by an investment Banker's pyramid scheme.
His Royal Highness was pissed and he took the opportunity to blame Obama, (how his name came up I don't know) but it is a historic German trait to look for an ethnic scapegoat for a problem that was caused by one's own doing.
Anyway, Anhalt said he still will drive his Rolls Royce and that he still has money. Although, exactly whose $$$ we have yet to know considering Prince Frederick Von Anhalt (a former masseuse) has lived off rich women's money for decades.

Sly Gets Welsh Surprise...

After having lunch with his pal Arnold the Governor of Cali, Sly Stallone got approached by a Welsh actor looking for a job.

Stallone kindly told the man, his latest project is already cast.
He took the ballsy "actor"'s headshot anyway.

I Can't Believe it is ....

Look who I bumped into yesterday, "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" FABIO.

Looking fit and carrying a bag of health products, Fabio was his charming tall self.

Something for the Lesbians...

Alot of Drag has been going on here lately so to be fair I shot these photos off a proud Lesbian...

Second Coming or Maybe the 3rd....Jesus spotted in Hollywood

After meeting Russell Brand a few weeks ago and thinking he was the new white Jesus, imagine my shock while walking on Hollywood and bumping into
Considering Hollywood is the closest thing to Babylon, is it any wonder that Jesus Christo would be drinking coffee from Coffee Bean on Hollywood Blvd just days after Xmas? WWJD?
What would Jesus Do but wear burlap on a chilly winter's night and take pictures with the masses?

Doll House Dude Has A Wish For You

A lot of people think that the DOLL HOUSE Dude is a little wacky to say the least. Most just think he is another crazy lunatic running around Hollywood. But when you listen to him he actually makes sense when he talks about everyone having affordable housing and a place to call home. DOLL HOUSE DUDE wishes that everyone has a home in the new year!!!

Diamond-HOT DOG of Hollywood

Diamond is her name and glamour is her GAME!
Diamond is a sweet tempered fashion model who doesn't mind posing for pictures. She cruises in the back of a convertible when she isn't chilling at home.

The Late Great EARTHA KITT

Eartha Kitt passed away. Her song "SANTA BABY" is on the charts. What a woman!!!
Catwoman was played Purrfectly by her on the BATMAN TV series. Kitt and Julie Newmar are my favorite Catwomen.
What I liked most about Eartha Kitt, was her fiery personality. She was hip to fight for civil rights. She lived on her own terms. Her stances got her kicked out of America but she held strong. She had a voice that was rich like fine cognac. She spoke several languages but French on her tongue sounded magnificently. Broadway Star, Movie Star, TV Actress, Political Activist, Dancer, Singer and so much more.
The heavens now have another bright star to add to the magnificence, L'etoile EARTHA KITT.

KAT Catches (Despereaux) Mouse

I'm driving down Wilshire Blvd the other day and I see something that makes me think someone spiked my hot apple cider. A giant mouse was on the loose in Beverly Hills. I thought he was the cutest thing. So I went around the block, like a good Kat would and found the mouse.
His name was Despereaux from the Universal Movie TALES OF DESPEREAUX which comes out on Christmas.
By the way, I can speak French with reckless abandon when I have a couple of glasses of wine in me. Shameless for me to mispronunce "Despereaux" but as Grace Jones says, "I'm not perfect but I'm perfect for you!"
I don't know about the movie but if the film is as sweet as this Despereaux was, it maybe a blockbuster.

English Export RUSSELL BRAND Hits Hollywood

After doing the red carpet at the movie premiere of BED TIME STORIES with Adam Sandler, Russell Brand made his way to the Jimmy Kimmel Show. In an alley way, while I was talking to some people about some up and coming band, Marissa who was one of the people I was chatting with, tapped me on the shoulder I turned around and the New White Jesus, Russell Brand came larger than life into our midst.

Russell was charming, well dressed with his trademark wild hair. He is sexy in a very dirty way. Brand looks like the kind of guy that you see on an airplane on a business trip and you decide to either do it in the plane's bathroom or hook up later in a hotel. He definitely looks like the kind of guy that would leave you the next day but oooh the memories. Brand was cool and very tall. We had a great time with him.

Cutest Little Elf

After photographing the SUPERSTAR DANCERS OF THE WORLD Sunday, I met the cutest little elf...
This little Pomeranian had the sweetest temperment and the softest fur and looked adorable in his Xmas sweater.

SHAOLIN Wheel of Life Monks

Its a long story but I have had a love affair with Kung Fu, Martial Arts, Bruce Lee, Jet Li, Tony Jaa and the movie Shaolin vs Wu Tang Klan. A few years ago, I had the pleasure of being invited and going on stage with Shaolin Monks performing downtown. They were very nice and so talented. One Monk is balanced on spears with his full body weight pressed against them. So imagine my delight as I saw the familiar robes and shoes striding down Hollywood blvd. I immediately went over and spoke what little Chinese that I know. I asked if I could get one of their robes in purple. They said no. They were wearing beautifully bright fabric that flowed as they moved. There were a couple of English speakers in their group and I spoke with them about seeing the Monks previously. They told me that these were monks from the same temple but a different group and that they were performing in a new show SUPERSTAR DANCERS OF THE WORLD on NBC. This show has contestants representing 8 countries depicting a specific style of dance brought to you by the same producers who brought you AMERICAN IDOL and DO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE.
Anyway, one Shaolin Monk who was from England told me that when he was eleven, he saw the group perform and he knew that is what he wanted to be so he was accepted into the Chinese Monastery. I enjoy hanging out with the monks. We have a lot in common we both are getting any sex. By choice!!!! Ha Ha! Anyway, watch the videos and check out their site @ http://www.shaolinwheeloflife.com
