Katy Perry shares wedding advice: ‘Don’t do it’
Just kidding, singer tells complete stranger before posing for photos with bride-to-be
Ladies, imagine this: you’re having a nice time at your bachelorette party with your girlfriends, in a stylish club, and suddenly celebrity divorcée Katy Perry rushes up to you. Loudly, she offers this advice:
“Don’t do it! Don’t get married!”
This actually happened to a woman called Laura Cooney, in London last week, at a trendy tiki bar called Mahiki.
But Katy, who just happened to be at the club with some friends of her own, quickly told Laura she was just kidding, wished her well, chatted for a few min- utes and posed for pictures, Cooney told the Mirror newspaper. Laura is 25. Katy is 27. (“Trendy tiki bar?” Those joints haven’t been trendy since about 1975.
I remember the one in the old Sheraton Mount Royal on Peel St. The Kon-tiki, it was called: fake teak, drinks with little umbrellas in them, “pupu” platters, pineapple in everything, jokes about trying to get lei-d … Don’t tell me these places are making a comeback! Everything old is new again.)
Reese Witherspoon and her hubby, Jim Toth, are expecting a baby, In Touch mag reports. This will be her third child, his first. There has been no official confirmation yet.
Her kids with Ryan Phillippe are Ava, 12, and Deacon, 8. Reese turned 36 yesterday.
Three weeks ago, I passed on a report that Minka Kelly had been seen with talent-free actor Wilmer Valderrama. Now, People mag says it’s getting more serious.
They were “flirting and dancing very close” and “left with each other,” somebody who was there told the mag after a sighting last weekend at Greystone Manor, an L.A. supper club. Another source told Us Weekly that the two had been “kissing and grin ding” on the dance floor.
“I wouldn’t say they’re boyfriend and girlfriend,” Nameless Insider tells the magazine, “but he’s started ignoring calls from some of his other girls.”
Woody Harrelson has grown up, it appears: the actor, once known as a leading party animal and still an advocate of marijuana legalization, says he wants his kids to have a better lifestyle than he had as a young adult: “I think I’ve been an incredible example to my kids of what not to do.”
To prepare for his role as a drunk in this movie The Hunger Games, he told the Metro newspaper chain, he went on a bender. His rule, he added, is “drink bad, eat good”: when making a movie “I eat only raw food … because I need my energy.”
He and his wife, Laura Louie, have three daughters: Deni Montana, 19, Zoe Giordano, 16 and Makani Ravello, 5. Woody is 50.
Too much information?: U.S. First Lady Michelle Obama, appearing on David Letterman’s show the other night, claimed, predictably enough and with apparent sincerity, that the presidential Portuguese water dog, Bo, is “the smartest dog on the planet.”
But then she added this: “He is my son. I have two girls – and a boy.”
