Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibb Together Again link

Superstars Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibb have announced they have started writing and producing for a yet to be titled project, scheduled for release later this year to mark the 25th anniversary of their 'Guilty' collaboration from 1980. Gibb composed all nine songs featured on "Guilty" including "Woman In Love," "Guilty" and "What Kind Of Fool." The title track "Guilty" and "What Kind Of Fool," both duets sung with Gibb, became Top 10 hits.

[...] The new album will feature a dozen songs. Gibb and Streisand will record the album in Miami, Florida and at Sony Pictures Studio in Culver City, California. The Sony studio was renamed The Barbra Streisand Scoring Stage last year.

Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones thought they could enjoy a paparazzi-free vacation in the island of Barbados while Douglas recuperated from his most recent trip to the plastic surgeon. WRONG.

The 60-year-old actor was seen with a bandage next to his left ear and a weeping wound by his right one as he was snapped leaving a restaurant with his 25 years younger wife.

An onlooker said: “Michael looked like he had cuts around his ears. He had flown off the island on Monday evening, then returned the next afternoon with the plaster and scars. He didn’t have them when he left on Monday — so whatever he had done must have taken place on Monday night. He did look very strange.”

This is not the first time Douglas has gone under the knife. He was reported to have had an operation to tighten the skin around his eyes before his wedding to Zeta-Jones five years ago. Pagesixsixsix

apparently he's had a tummy tuck too

What on earth does she see in him. There is nothing so gross as some old guy who has had fifty years of too much sun.

If Michael doesn't choose his surgeons carefuly, he'll end up with some pretty embarrassing scars....my boyfriend can never have a short cut again.

Desperate Housewives Snubs Britney Spears link

Britney Spears has been snubbed by the makers of 'Desperate Housewives'.

The blonde singer had reportedly been begging producers for a cameo role in the hit show for months.

But the 23-year-old star was turned down by show bosses who say guest appearances would ruin the series' appeal.

ABC orders more drama for next year Hollywood Reporter

ABC has given early pickups to four drama series for the 2005-06 season: "Alias," "Boston Legal," "Desperate Housewives" and "Lost." The full-season, 22-episode pickups for "Housewives" and "Lost," both from Touchstone Television, came as no surprise. The two freshman dramas have led ABC's remarkable ratings turnaround this season. "Alias," also from Touchstone, was widely expected to return for a fifth season, but the early nod to David E. Kelley's "Boston Legal," a spinoff of "The Practice" from 20th Century Fox TV, came as a strong vote of confidence for the first-year series that has been a middling performer in the cushy Sunday 10 p.m. slot behind "Housewives."

This isn't really 'Hollywood' gossip and I posted it under the current discussion in N&V's but it seemed rather dishy and non controversial, so I thought I would post it here too! LOL

Parker Bowles' outfit elegant, feminine
Associated Press
WINDSOR, England — Elegant chiffon, a flash of lace: Camilla Parker Bowles — now known as the Duchess of Cornwall — chose a swirl of a dress in cream silk topped by a matching coat for her marriage today to Prince Charles.

The outfit, crowned with a stylish and intensely feminine straw hat overlaid with ivory French lace and trimmed with a fountain of feathers.

Charles' Clarence House office said the Robinson Valentine design team wanted a "crisp clean look with subtle detailing" in the dress for the civil ceremony at Windsor's town hall.

The royal wedding rings were made of Welsh gold taken from the Clogau St. David's mine and the River Mawdach in the Kings Forest, Clarence House said.

The new duchess' coat, in oyster silk basket weave, featured subtle herringbone embroidery while the silk chiffon dress, hemmed with vertical rows of appliqued woven disks made in Switzerland, peeped out beneath.

Work on the outfit began Feb. 21 and the final fitting was on April 5.

Britain's new Duchess of Cornwall wore pale beige suede court shoes with almond-colored toes and a 2-inch heel by design house L.K. Bennet.

Her clutch purse was made from embossed calf leather with a half-flap closing and lined with suede.

Hugh Green of Hugh and Stephen in London's Ebury Road kept Parker Bowles's flicked-back hair style, which Charles is reputed to love. Earlier this week, she had her blond highlights retouched.

Flowers in the marriage room came from Charles's Highgrove country estate in west England and Raymill House, Camilla's home nearby; there was a lot of Lily of the Valley, symbol of the return of happiness.

For the blessing ceremony at St. George's Chapel in Windsor Castle, the duchess changed into another Robinson Valentine design, a long, fitted silk porcelain-blue dress and high-collared coat embroidered with gold thread, with a slight train. Clarence House said shades of blue and gold were her favorite colors.

"Robinson Valentine believed the dress required a sense of occasion for St. George's Chapel and so the aim was a flowing, elegant line, concentrating on proportion, fit and silhouette," Charles' office said. "The print and the embroidery create texture whilst retaining the lightness and subtlety of the fabric."

The outfit was inspired by a piece of jewelry that had belonged to the duchess's mother; Robinson Valentine researched embroidery, technique and fabric in the textile collection at the Victoria & Albert Museum and decided the desired effect required them to create their own fabric.

On her head, the duchess wore a feather headdress covered in gold leaf and tipped with crystals.

Her shoes were pale gray silk with subtle gold embroidery detail on the toe, and she carried a small, simple bouquet of gray blue and yellow flowers tied with the same kind of silk used to make her dress.

The design team of Anna Valentine and Antonia Robinson was established in 1986 and has a salon in London's Kensington district.

The duchess' hat was by Irish-born milliner Philip Treacy, who has worked for the French fashion house Chanel, and is known for the daring of his creations, which have included a faux bird cage and a pair of animal horns.

Those pics of Michael Douglas are awful. Talk about fighting the aging process. I honestly think he looks worse with plastic surgery; all shiny and plasticy like a Ken doll. Yuck.

There's a website dedicated to bad plastic surgery of the stars. I think that people would be better off just aging gracefully. It very seldom looks anything but fake and pathetic. Be proud of those wrinkles!!!

A&E had a biography of Charles and Camilla on last night (even including wedding footage...those guys are fast!!!) Anyway, it said that they started living together in the late '90's. I didn't know they had been shacking up! LOL

I think she had to confirm it. She wasn't doing a very good job of hiding the expanding tummy, now was she?

I think I'm going to be SICK. Anyone care to start the pool on the divorce, and speculation on how messed up that poor child will be?

ETA - I guess we can never question Federline's virility. **sigh**

I didn't question Federline's virility before this ... after all his old girlfriend was pregnant with his child when he started going out with Britney
