Zen & Now
November 6, 2009
Corey Feldman can’t catch a break. His career ain’t exactly on fire, he never mended his relationship with one-time pal Michael Jackson, and now he’s splitting up with his sexy wife of seven years, Susan Sprague.
“Corey is deeply hurt and saddened by this unexpected change in their relationship, ” a statement from his rep reads.
Ms. Sprague filed for divorce Oct 22 and is seeking sole custody of their 5-year-old son, Zen Scott Feldman, with visitation rights for Mr. Feldman, 38. She’s also seeking spousal support.
Corey is “hopeful that he and Susie can work to resolve this quickly and amicably, and he is fully committed to doing what is best for the welfare of their son,” the statement said.
Chelsea Handler
Thin Skinned
November 6, 2009
Oh, that Jay Leno. He’s always got something up his sleeve.
Last week, in an awkward series of events, the lantern-jawed Leno surprised talk show host/comedian/author Chelsea Handler by unveiling a giant-sized reproduction of his nubile guest’s forthcoming “Playboy” cover, in which she’s attired in nothing but a tiny gold bikini and a come-hither smile.
When Leno brought up Hugh Hefner and posing for Playboy, Chelsea, 34, seemed a bit annoyed and said, “Why are you bringing that up?”
About the cover, which is for the December issue, Handler joked, “We need the guy that airbrushed me to come back.” She admitted that she “trained” hard for the shoot and quit drinking “for like a day-and-a-half.”
As far as seeing Chelsea in the buff, don’t get your hopes up, fellas. The inside photos merely show her covered up by an apron and a mini-dress while preparing a vodka-soaked Christmas meal with her sidekick, Chuy.
Jon Gosselin
Bubble Gal
November 6, 2009
Earth to Hailey: are you serious? Last week, Hailey Glassman, girlfriend of reality TV star Jon Gosselin, alerted the world about something that could not have shocked just about anyone who reads a newspaper or magazine — that Jon is not a very nice boy. Or a very stable one.
“He’ll call me and take his anger out on me,” Ms. Glassman, 22, told “The Insider.” “He has ‘mantrums.’ I shouldn’t have to put up with being emotionally abused. I cry and say, ‘Why are you so mean to me?’
“Sometimes, he has trouble with the truth,” she said, “and he will dance and dance around his lies. He’s like Jekyll and Hyde. But I still love him.”
Ms. Glassman said her life has changed drastically since meeting the 32-year-old Jon. “I met Jon in a bubble,” she said. “I’d never seen the show. I had no idea.
“People judge me before they meet me. I get threats everyday. I get called a home wrecker and a fat whore. People will stare or point. It gets worse everyday.”
Still, Hailey can’t imagine life without Kate’s ex. “I don’t want to leave him all alone,” she said. “At the end of the day, I love him, but I dislike him at times. When I love someone, I would never hurt them.”
Sounds like Hailey needs to wake up to reality herself. And we’re not talking about reality TV either.
Meanwhile, Jon keeps getting further into his weird Jewish conversion quest thing and says he’s been studying with “America’s Rabbi,” celebrity author Rabbi Shmuely Boteach.
“I am well aware that my behavior over the past few months has not always reflected my personal and religious values,” Mr. Gosselin said in a statement. “I further accept that I have allowed myself to become somewhat severed from my own moral anchor and [to] be carried away by the challenges of fame.”
Boteach and Gosselin met at a forum on values held at a Manhattan synagogue earlier this month. Gosselin publicly apologized “in a sacred space to those whom I have hurt” at Manhattan’s West Side Synagogue.
Oy, please, someone, make it stop!
Gavin Rossdale
Goth Tale
November 6, 2009
Look for Gavin Rossdale as a Goth rocker on the CBS crime drama series “Criminal Minds.” He plays someone who’s linked to an investigation involving vampirism on the Nov. 11 episode.
“My Goth side is dormant now,” the former Bush frontman, 43, tweeted recently, “although the eyeliner traces remain.”
Maybe he gets it from the missus, Gwen Stefani.
Ivanka Trump
Rich In Love
October 30, 2009
Well, it’s official: The Donald’s little girl – The Ivanka? – is now hitched to a nice (and exceedingly rich) Jewish boy.
Ivanka Trump, 27, and her longtime paramour, Jared Kushner, tied the knot last Sunday at the father of the bride’s golf course in Bedminster, N.J. Among the 500 guests were TV journalist Barbara Walters, writer Joel Klein, Pennsylvania guv Edward Rendell, actress Emmy Rossum and Counting Crows frontman Adam Duritz.
The ceremony was officiated by Rabbi Haskel Lookstein. (Ivanka converted to Judaism several months ago, apparently to marry Jared.)
“Just finished a gorgeous hike,” Ivanka posted on Twitter a few hours before the wedding. “The leaves are spectacular and the sun is shining. Everything is simply perfect! I’m getting married today!”
The happy couple will honeymoon in Africa. Mr. Kushner, 28, is publisher of the New York Observer and son of billionaire real estate mogul Charles Kushner.

October 30, 2009Corey Feldman can’t get a break. His career ain’t exactly on fire, he never mended his relationship with onetime pal Michael Jackson, and now he’s splitting up with his wife of seven years, Susan Sprague.?
“Corey is deeply hurt and saddened by this unexpected change in their relationship, and has done nothing to contribute to the demise of the marriage,” a statement from his rep reads.?
Ms. Sprague, who appeared in Playboy last year, filed for divorce Oct 22 and is seeking sole custody of their 5-year-old son, Zen Scott Feldman, with visitation rights for Mr. Feldman, 38. She’s also seeking spousal support.
Corey is “hopeful that he and Susie can work to resolve this quickly and amicably, and he is fully committed to doing what is best for the welfare of their son,” the statement said.
You may recall that Feldman, star of such classic ‘80s film fare as “The Goonies” and “Stand By Me,” and Sprague married nine months after meeting in a nightclub, on the set of VH1’s “The Surreal Life.” Their wedding ceremony was officiated by MC Hammer and a rabbi (Wasn’t yours?).
