SANDRA MUM, ISAIAH SORE LOSER AT GLOBES
While Grey’s Anatomy squabble over the “Did he, didn’t he?” fight over the outing of co-star T.R. Knight by Isaiah Washington, Sandra Oh is playing diplomat. Dressed in an Olympian bronze dress, Sandra was visibly disgusted as Isaiah repeated the offensive F-word to the stunned press. The crowd gasped, then uncomfortably stared at Sandra trying to keep T.R. from running away from the PR train wreck. “He just shouldn’t speak in public,” co-star Katherine Heigl added later. Grey’s Anatomy had just won the Golden Globe Award for Best Television Drama Series.
FOXY BROWN: WHAT ABOUT MY CRACK BABIES?
Foxy Brown is guilty, guilty, guilty. Guilty of being singled out by the media as a warmonger and malcontent. “You never read about the wonderful things I’m doing. How I pick up groceries for an old lady,” the rapper lamented to The New York Post. “I adopted two crack babies.” While the world asks, “What crack babies?” the Filipina-Trinidadian songstress will still have to hire a nanny to cover her while she spends more time shopping for community service and anger management courses.
BECKINSALE: NO REGRETS FLASHING JAPANESE REPORTER
Kate Beckinsale loves her breasts, and the world loves them back!
Kate still fondly remembers her special moment with a Japanese reporter who was the unsuspecting victim of her fetish for flashing. “A friend made me wear this top for an interview. I had one tit entirely hanging out in front of this Japanese man,” she giggled. “I think I really scared him. He was fumbling around and couldn’t get his tape recorder to work.” Oh yeah, and then there was that other time she wore down her pants so much that they split right off her.
CLAIRE FORLANI DEBUNKS KEANU RUMORS
By getting married to somebody else. That’s right, the Meet Joe Black temptress — who was allegedly proposed to by Keanu Reeves — is now officially engaged to Mission Impossible II star Dougray Scott. Claire and Keanu have laughed off their romance rumors. Claire stated she and Dougray had been dating since July 2006, exactly the same time that engagement rumors started fluttering.
TOP CHEF CHECKS TOP EATS IN BIG APPLE
TV’s Iron Chef, Masaharu Morimoto, has the top places to dine when visiting the Big Apple — and his eponymous restaurant didn’t make the cut. How humble! It seems like the Japanese chef has a taste for Asian drunk food, because he placed two 24-hour Korean takeouts as best in show: Gam Mee Ok and Kang Suh Restaurant. “When you’re out really late at night and perhaps have had a little bit to drink, there’s nothing like … the best Sul Long Tan and super kim chee,” he told Citysearch. Masaharu also recommends boiled ox feet.
NAOMI TURNING NEW LEAF IN 2007, FIRES MANAGER
Naomi Campbell, ‘90s supermodel extraordinaire, shocked the world last week by firing her manager of 15 years, Carole White, then pleading guilty to assaulting former maid Ana Scolavino with a cell phone. “I threw a cell phone in the apartment,” Naomi told the Manhattan Criminal Court. “The cell phone hit Ana. This was an accident because I did not intend to hit her.” Yeah, just like she didn’t intend to make that God-awful film, Prêt-à-Porter. Word on the street is she wants a makeover in 2007 just like the rest of us, and first on the list is getting a real job as a reporter for GQ magazine.
ELIZABETH HURLEY’S MAGIC NUMBER IS FOUR
To pare herself back down to a size four, the 5’ 9″ former model is refusing to eat anything after 4 p.m., and even then, insists on eating only egg whites, vegetables and steamed fish. Nothing too unhealthy or drastic. And of course, she’ll be taking her folic acid so that her hair doesn’t fall out. It wouldn’t be very becoming for the British actress to sport a turban and reptilian skin with her custom made Versace wedding gown on her special day with fiancé Arun Neyer. The pair plans to marry in the Cotswolds’ Sudeley Castle on March 3rd.
