Kris Jenner did several photo dumps from her 70th birthday party, which looked like a really fun night. Ostentatious? Sure. But rich celebrities are going to throw parties, and it?s not like any of it came from American taxpayers. Speaking of, all of the hand-wringing over the Duke and Duchess of Sussex?s attendance at Kris Jenner?s party is leaving me cold. Meghan and Harry are friendly with the K-J clan and we?ve seen that for years. Kris?s party was full of A-listers like Oprah, Tyler Perry, Mariah Carey, Beyonce and Jay-Z, all of whom are also friendly with Harry and Meghan. The Sussexes had every reason to be invited, and every reason to attend. Their attendance did a lot to blow up the British media?s narratives about ?no one in LA likes the Sussexes? and ?A-listers snub the Sussexes,? narratives which were just being circulated anew LAST WEEK. Now we?re getting a return to another huffy narrative, straight from Prince William and Kensington Palace: Harry and Meghan are ?tacky? for attending a party with A-listers and billionaires. William would never!
Palace insiders are appalled by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle?s grinning appearance at Kris Jenner?s 70th birthday bash ? and say it shows just why the couple should not be accepted back in the royal fold.
?It?s so tacky,? said one palace insider who works with the royal family.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex dressed up in black tie and joined a bevy of Hollywood stars at Jenner?s party, thrown by Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos and wife Lauren Snchez at their $165 million Beverly Hills estate Saturday night. They were joined by celebs including Beyonc and Jay Z, Martha Stewart, Mariah Carey, Oprah Winfrey, Paris Hilton, Adele, all the Kardashians ? and Jenner?s plastic surgeon, Dr Steven Levine, who is responsible for her astonishing facelift.
?It truly shows that Harry is so far removed from the rest of the family. These people may be stars in America, but the pure ostentatiousness is at odds with what Prince William is trying to do with his life and the monarchy,? the insider said.
Their appearance also shows just how entrenched the Sussexes are within Hollywood, as Bezos?s company is making Markle?s upcoming movie, ?Close Personal Friends.? She will play herself in the romantic comedy and landed the cameo as she has a ?connection? with the filmmakers, sources said. The movie is being made by Amazon MGM, which is owned by Bezos, and produced by Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger. Markle filmed her cameo last week, but we are told it doesn?t mean the former ?Suits? star is making a real return to acting.
?That?s overstating things,? said an industry source.
Despite the couple having gone Hollywood, the insider admitted that some palace officials think Harry and Markle should be brought back to the royal family to help when Harry?s estranged brother, Prince William, eventually takes the throne.
However, the insider said, ?William has made it clear that he has a plan for being king, and he has true class. I think he will look at the younger royals to help, including Prince Edward?s children.?

How dare the Sussexes attend an A-list party and successfully network and enjoy themselves among friends! That?s not the classy royal way! The classy royal way is to pay settlements to your rape victim! The classy royal way is paying celebrities like Kylie Minogue and David Beckham to fly on private jets around the world for your vanity environmental bullsh-t! The classy royal way is to beg British celebrities to perform at your coronation, but all of them refused so you had to hire two American artists AND make an appearance on American Idol! They?re not mad that the Sussexes are ?tacky,? they?re mad that Harry and Meghan are rolling with the biggest celebrities in the world, full stop.

| | Dakota Fanning says Tom Cruise still sends shoes every year on her birthday | | Added 32 hours ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Tom Cruise gave Dakota Fanning her first cell phone for her 11th birthday, a Motorola Razr, after Dakota played his daughter in the 2005 War of the Worlds remake. In the 20 years since, however, Tom has marked Dakota?s birthday each and every year by gifting her a pair of shoes. As far as I can tell, Dakota is the only colleague who gets a new pair of shoes for her birthday, instead of receiving the infamous Christmas coconut cake delivery, courtesy of Tom. Why? Quirks/anomalies like these fascinate me! And I?m not the only one fascinated by the yearly shoe drop: Dakota was on Watch What Happens Live last week to promote her new series All Her Fault, and host Andy Cohen asked if Tom is still keeping up with the tradition. (Yes, he is.) Sitting in the other guest chair was Brittany Snow, who was similarly intrigued:
Tom Cruise still sends Dakota Fanning a pair of shoes every year to mark her birthday.
Fanning, 31, told Andy Cohen as much during her Thursday, Nov. 6, appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Brittany Snow, as [Dakota] promotes her new Peacock series All Her Fault. Cohen, 57, referenced Fanning?s previous statements that Cruise has given her shoes for her birthday in the past and asked if it was still a tradition for the A-list actor when Fannings birthday rolls around each February.
?Yes, he does,? Fanning, who worked with Cruise when she was a child actor in 2005?s War of the Worlds, responded. ?Yes, he does.?
?Really nice shoes, yes,? she added, when Cohen asked her to clarify ?what kind of shoes? Cruise sends her.
?I have so many questions,? Snow, 39, told her fellow actress, and Fanning responded, ?It?s really as simple as that. He?s just always given me shoes.?
?But are they nice shoes, are they sneakers? Or are they like??? Snow asked. ?They?re nice shoes,? Fanning explained. When Snow asked whether Cruise knows if Fanning?s shoe size has changed over the years, she added, ?It has changed over the years and he?s adapted. He?s adapted.?
?Shoes are not the only gift Cruise has given Fanning over the years. In April 2024, Fanning said in an interview with Harper?s BAZAAR that Cruise actually gave her her first cell phone ? a Motorola Razr ? for her 11th birthday. ?I loved having it. I loved it. I felt so cool,? she said, noting that Cruise has always sent her gifts on her birthday each year since then.

I found it hilarious (and a little curious) that Dakota wouldn?t elaborate beyond, ?They?re really nice shoes.? Like Brittany, I?m brimming with questions. Does Dakota wear these shoes to red carpet events? Are they Hokas? (Because sneakers can be nice, too!) By what means exactly does Tom keep abreast of Dakota?s current shoe size? My bigger burning questions, though, are more macro. Again, what accounts for the diversion from Christmas cake to birthday shoes? Also ? and answer honestly ? if any other male coworker were annually gifting shoes to their decades younger female colleague starting from when she was a preteen, would it not be giving us the ick? And yet the man at the top of a cult has seemingly cultivated a Nice Guy shield? Dakota met Tom when she was a kid, which informs her experience of Tom and how she feels about him. I don?t hold anything against her if he?s still a positive figure for her, based on that history. Speaking for my own sassy ass, though, I?d send the shoes back with a note that says, ?Where?s Shelly??

Here are photos from last night?s huge London premiere for Wicked: For Good. They were in Paris over the weekend for a premiere and photocall, but those photos didn?t make a huge impact. This London premiere feels like the REAL start of the promotional cycle, honestly. Anyway, while I?m not going to see this in theaters, I wish them well and I?ll check it out as a rental, like I did with the first film. I enjoyed the first one much more than I expected to, and I assume that will be the case with Part 2.
Fashion notes? Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande have FINALLY broken their green/pink wardrobe prison, thank god! Cynthia wore a very witchy custom Prada, with what looks like a latex sleeve harness. Interesting! Ariana wore vintage Gilbert Adrian. I?m not crazy about it, and yet I admire the craftsmanship, and it looks like a really beautiful and delicate gown. Ari?s being styled by Law Roach for this promotion, and probably for the awards season too, if she gets some nominations. I?ve seen comments on Ari?s makeup for some reason, she?s been doing this too-pale kabuki-type makeup in recent appearances, and I wonder if her MUA is experimenting with the high-def makeup and it?s all going horribly wrong. I also think she?s trying to get extreme ?doe eyes? and that?s what?s throwing everything off.
I?m also including photos of Jeff Goldblum, Sexiest Man Alive Jonathan Bailey (wearing decidedly unsexy trousers) and Michelle Yeoh, who wore Self-Portrait. I love Yeoh?s dress.
