A Goatee Too Far: A little more than a year-and-a-half after his infamous leather-bar amateur-night shimmy with Ellen DeGeneres, John Travolta's new look in the thriller From Paris With Love goes about as far as the actor has yet gone to reinforce his straight creds. Stop already, John — you had us with the muumuu in Hairspray! Now we just feel guilty. [WWTTD]

Resurgent Anne Hathaway Back in 'Love'

Posted by STV at 7:00 AM on September 26, 2008

· In her first film since her split with Raffaello Follieri, Anne Hathaway will topline The Opposite of Love as an attorney whose life collapses when she rejects her boyfriend's marriage interests. That kind of thing will happen when you say "No" to a Vatican wedding. [Variety]
· Memo to Will Smith and Warner Bros. re your planned I Am Legend prequel: Save $149,999,996 and rent the original. It has flashbacks and everything! [Variety]

Will John Waters and 'Hairspray 2' Break Musicals' Sequel Curse?

Posted by Defamer Hollywood at 7:00 AM on July 25, 2008

In the tradition of classic musical sequels like Goodbye, Dolly and Seven Divorces for Seven Brothers, the creative team behind Hairspray is set to return for a follow-up slated for 2010. New Line has reportedly brought aboard John Waters — whose original 1988 hit was adapted to a Broadway tuner that grossed $200 million when re-adapted for the screen last year — to scribble a new treatment "[picking] up the Baltimore saga of the Turnblad family after the resolution of the first film, which was set in 1962."

Blind Item Guessing Game: Who's Gay, Closeted And Wants You To Fuck Their Wife?

Posted by Molly Friedman at 6:40 AM on July 16, 2008

As many loyal Defamer readers must know by now, our favourite blind items tend to include three elements: closeted actors, drug-addicted actresses, and those rare but joyous items that include the quote "Do you want to fuck my wife?" And kudos to the NY Daily News for providing us with the gruesomely enjoyable trifecta all in one sordid little piece today:

'People' Unveils Massive Cover Archive Online, All We See Are Fabio's Pecs And John Travolta's Quads

Posted by Molly Friedman at 4:20 AM on May 15, 2008

It took them long enough, but People has finally seized the magical capabilities of the world wide web and uploaded each and every cover in its almost 45-year history online. And while we hand-picked a few of our favourites, from a very Dirk Diggler-looking John Travolta in 1983 to the sad black and white sight of Jennifer Aniston's misty eyes looking up as Brad Pitt placed the wedding ring on her finger in 2000, we also featured a few after the jump that are slightly more disturbing. "Judge Judy Disrobed," and Brooke Shields doing her whole kiddie porn thing back in the 70s, for example. Plus, a very special throwback to a time when the world wondered whether Britney was looking "too sexy too soon" ... way back in 2000!

Suri Cruise's Favourite Things: Toxic Bottles, Boys Named Brooklyn And High-Kicking Has-Beens

Posted by Molly Friedman at 2:46 AM on May 13, 2008

We hate to rain on Tom Cruise's purity parade, but it seems his bundle of Hubbard Formula-chugging joy, Suri Cruise, has gone seriously gaga for two older men. And she's got the giggles to show it. While babysitting for all three Beckham boys as David bent it like...well, lost to the visiting team, Tom and Katie brought finger-nibbling Suri along to watch. But the blanketed Cruiselette only had eyes for one guy: and he goes by Brooklyn Beckham. Tom did seem more interested in setting up Suri with the littlest Beckham (Cruz Beckham! Just picturing future Scientology couple Suri Cruise and Cruz Beckham likely made Tom's removable head spin with possibilities), Suri couldn't keep her eyes off 9-year old Brooklyn. But earlier last week while still in NY, TomKat attended Suri's favourite musical, and we have a feeling fellow Scientologist John Travolta's role in the movie version had nothing to do with her ear-to-ear grin while leaving: a certain song-and-dancing Efronabbe got her all shook up...

Naomi Campbell's Bad Luck Streak Continues As Her Hair Decides To Jump Ship

Posted by Molly Friedman at 7:45 AM on April 25, 2008

Long ago, we witnessed the frightening effects a bad weave can have on someone like Tyra Banks. Then, we had the misfortune of seeing what happens when John Travolta grew crops of fake hair atop his jolly head. And of course, who can forget Jude Law's T-bone-shaped crew cut earlier this week. But leave it to sanitation worker/phone-throwing criminal Naomi Campbell to reveal the worst and most gruesome display of 'do disasters. Seems even legendary female supermodels who've made a living off their looks can suffer from a condition we've often seen featured on late-night infomercials: ladies losin' their hair. The evidence lies after the jump.

'Us' Calls Out Fatties With Their 'Hunk To Chunk' Photographic Retrospective

Posted by Molly Friedman at 9:42 AM on March 6, 2008

For the first time in recorded history, we actually felt sorry for poor chubster Kevin Federline yesterday. After all, as those golfing pictures revealed, that he's now sporting a Buddha big enough to hamper his golf swing. But apparently the slideshow-happy folks at Us Weekly didn't share our sympathies; in the wake of the revelation of Fat K-Fed, they've posted a slideshow featuring other formerly thin celebs who've gone from "hunk to chunk" in recent years. But being the stubborn argumentative types that we are, we're going to have to disagree with their take on all of these pound-packers' alleged downfalls. Sure, Clay Aiken's no prize these days (was he ever?), and Alec Baldwin certainly looked sexier in Glengarry Glen Ross than he currently does on 30 Rock, but a few members of Us' Fatso Club actually look far hotter with some extra meat on their bones. Our rebuttals, with pictorial evidence, after the jump.

Danny Zuko Committed To Ridding T-Bird Brother Of Drug-Craving Thetans

Posted by Seth at 4:22 AM on March 1, 2008

In a heartwarming scenario whose only logical conclusion involves Kirstie Alley, Leah Remini, Greta Van Susteren and Jenna Elfman in pink satin jackets singing "We Go Together" on a fairground set up at the Hollywood Scientology Center, Jeff Conaway has found an unlikely guardian angel in the fight against his long list of powder- and pill-based demons: his Grease co-star John Travolta. Inside Edition reports:

Hollywood's Guardian Angels Tom Cruise And John Travolta Duped By Fake Heath Ledger Father

Posted by Seth at 3:38 AM on January 30, 2008

cruise-travol.jpgIn a shocking development in the Heath Ledger tragedy, the NY Post is reporting that an unidentified con man has been making calls pretending to be Heath's father. Not only did he convince the Manhattan funeral home that held Ledger's body to book him multiple rooms at the Carlysle hotel for him and his "family," he also took advantage of grieving A-list movie stars Tom Cruise and John Travolta. From their report:
