This is so sad. Dennis Hopper has died after losing his battle with prostate cancer. He was 74 years old and passed away at his home in Venice surrounded by family and friends.
Hopper starred in a host of classic movies including ‘Easy Rider’, ‘Apocalypse Now’, ‘Rebel Without a Cause’ and ‘Blue Velvet’ and also directed several films.
He is survived by four children, adults Marin, Henry and Ruthiana and seven-year-old daughter Galen.
My thoughts are with his family.

By Jay A. Fernandez News for a slow morning: The Writers Guild of America, East, has officially changed its logo. Granted, the old one looks a bit like a title card from a “Sesame Street” montage: But the new one is… what? Actually, it strikes me as having a Saul Bass flair, though with no actual icon to hang [...]

Last night the LA Lakers managed to pull of a last second win over the Phoenix Suns to take Game 5 (and the 3-2 lead) of the Western Conference NBA Finals and a host of celebs were in the hizzy at the Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles, CA to root for the home team … including soccer stud and super dad David Beckham. Here are a few photos that show the range of emotions emoted by Becks during last night’s game:
His injury means he is thousands of miles away from the England training camp. But luckily, David Beckham has found something to take his mind off the World Cup. The footballer was fired up over an LA Lakers basketball match this week and joined in with the locals hollering as his team won a crucial match. The LA Galaxy star, 35, is resting up after an injury to his Achilles tendon which has taken him out of the England squad for the World Cup. But as the team flew off to their Austrian training ground this week, Beckham was not slumped in the doldrums. Instead he was cheering on his basketball team alongside celebrities such as Anthony Kiedis of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. The Lakers won a narrow 103-101 victory in the dying seconds of the game. With less than a second on the clock, Ron Artest banked a final shot at the Staples Centre in Los Angeles yesterday. The defending champions were tied with rivals Phoenix Suns during the fifth match of the NBA Western Conference final playoff series. The team now have a 3-2 lead over the Suns in the best-of-seven series and are one game from the NBA finals. Other stars at the match included Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers and actor Zac Efron. Beckham has been spotted looking more relaxed recently, with beer in his hand at Lakers games and spending time with his wife Victoria and three children Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz. And he will still be joining the England squad in South Africa. He won’t be training the players on the pitch but will be there as a confidant for the players as part of England’s backroom staff. Arsenal winger Theo Walcott said yesterday: ‘Just having him around, giving you advice, one of the best crossers of the ball, can only help. The most important thing he says is just enjoy it, play with no fear. And if you are young and play with no fear the best comes. It’s a shame his injuries mean he won’t have a chance to play in a last World Cup and he is a big miss. But he is going to help the players by being around and boosting their spirits.’
Aww … poor Becks. Welp, if he can’t really partake in the upcoming World Cup Tournament play, at least he can take part of the exciting sports festivities that are going on here at home in SoCal. At dinner with Darion last night, we were able to watch the last seconds of last night’s game and were very happy to watch the Lakers pull that win out of the fire. With 0 seconds on the clock, Artest’s hoop made most of Los Angeles erupt in cheers! It was a really exciting end to a nailbiter of a game. If the Lakers win Game 6 on the road in Phoenix, then we very likely will not get to see Becks sitting courtside for the Lakers anymore … he’ll prolly be in South Africa if and when the Lakers advance the the NBA Finals. It’s a shame the Lakers are losing having Becks in the hiz, I’m thinking he was a pretty great good luck charm.

New wife and new mom Bethenny Frankel, one of the stars of Bravo TV’s The Real Housewives of NYC, was spotted on the streets of Manhattan today filming new scenes for one of her reality TV shows. In addition to starring in Real Housewives, Bethenny will also star in a show of her very own called Bethenny Getting Married. Here are pics of the jubilant reality TV star filming scenes today:
Doesn’t she look fantastic? And, hello, she just gave birth a few weeks ago … homegirl is lookin’ real good. But, as cool as these photos are, I think the photo we saw on Tuesday of Bethenny with her baby girl Bryn Casey is even cuter still. Since the season finale of The Real Housewives of NYC airs next week, I’m thinkin’ these new scenes are for Bethenny Getting Married. I have to say, Bethenny is my fave NYC housewife so I’m really excited to see her new show … are you?

Last night Darion and I went out for a quiet pre-birthday dinner celebration at Frida in Beverly Hills, CA and we got to do a whole lotta catching up … due to travel and work commitments, we haven’t had much time to hang out. Last night was a great way for the two of us to just catch up and chill:
We had a very nice dinner and then a quick dessert afterward at the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. But, while last night was the precursor to Darion’s bday celebration, the real party takes place tonight. Darion will be having a WIGtastic Birthday Party tonight which promises to be an amazing time! I can’t wait to see all the fun wigs … it’s gonna be a blast! Stay tuned, I’m sure to have lots of fun photos to share tomorrow!
Happy Weekend!! Enjoy!!
