John Galliano, Colin Jordan And Dior’s Nazi Links

OVERLOOKING the fact that Hitler liked to kill zer gays, we bring news of John Galliano and Karl Largerfeld. Galliano has been sacked by house of Dior – the fashion palace created by Christian Dior whose niece Francoise Dior married the English Nazi Colin Jordan in 1963.

Galliano is to face trial in Paris over alleged  racial insults. He could go to jail for six months, if convicted.

John ” I love Hitler” Galliano wants to explain:

Since the events of last Thursday evening I have not been able to make any public comment on what took place based upon advice from my French lawyer. However, given the continuing delays at the French Prosecutor’s Office I should make my position clear.I completely deny the claims made against me and have fully co-operated with the police investigation.

A number of independent witnesses have given evidence and have told the police that I was subjected to verbal harassment and an unprovoked assault when an individual tried to hit me with a chair having taken violent exception to my look and my clothing. For these reasons I have commenced proceedings for defamation and the threats made against me.

However, I fully accept that the accusations made against me have greatly shocked and upset people.

I must take responsibility for the circumstances in which I found myself and for allowing myself to be seen to be behaving in the worst possible light.

I only have myself to blame and I know that I must face up to my own failures and that I must work hard to gain people’s understanding and compassion. To start this process I am seeking help and all I can hope for in time is to address the personal failure which led to these circumstances and try and earn people’s forgiveness.

I have fought my entire life against prejudice, intolerance and discrimination, having been subjected to it myself. In all my work my inspiration has been to unite people of every race, creed, religion and sexuality by celebrating their cultural and ethnic diversity through fashion. That remains my guiding light.

Anti-semitism and racism have no part in our society. I unreservedly apologise for my behaviour in causing any offence.

Can Porn Missionary Charlie Sheen Destroy The Therapy Industry?

CHARLIE Sheen is not a dissolute fornicator. He is missionary saving fallen women, like Bree Olson, nee Rachel Oberlin. Sheen has told Howard Stern that he got Olson to collect her golden c*ock and retire from the porn business.

Bree is now with Sheen at his home, the one he calls “Sober Valley Lodge“. How he got her to retire is one of the few things Sheen has not yet shared with his followers on Twitter, which has replaced Two & A Half Men as the hottest show in town. The expert opinion is that you can’t make a lucrative come back unless you’ve retired; or that everyone want to make sacrifices to meet Emilio Estevez.

Sheen is currently living with Natalie Kenly and the resting Bree Olson. Says Olson on Twitter:

“I don’t do drugs and neither does anybody around me. I used to drink occasionally and don’t even do that anymore. Yeah, I love sex, so what?”

Joan Collins Knows That True Glamour Costs

JOAN Collins’ dress, by Lebanese designer Georges Hobeika, was so tight she felt “woozy” at the post-Oscars Vanity Fair party. Collins took her glamour to an ambulance, possibly carried by a tribute of matinee idols. She then went to hospital, where she pulled on a handmade, bejeweled gown, lay on  bed and with the back of one wrist resting on her forehead declared, “I’m ready.”

Jordan could learn a lot from Joany about what real clamour costs.

Kerry Katona’s Dancing On Ice Journey To The Deep Freeze

KERRY Katona is, as ever, on the cover OK!, and , a sever, she is talking about men. Katona cocks an opens hand to her open mouth. OK! constructs the headline:

“Kerry speaks out on her marine hunk.”

The marine hunk is Kevin Green, whose estranged wife is not keen on Our Kerry, alleging that the ketchup-faced mum-of-many played a part in their split. (Kerry denies that.)

The other reason Katona is in the news is that she’s been booted off Dancing On Ice, the telly show that leaves everyone cold. It was Emma Bunton who told her:

“After being in the bottom, in your head you’re already on the plane.”

Charlie Sheen Is Enabled By The Tabloid Media: And We Love It

CHARLIE Sheen is providing fun copy just now. He’s shagging porn stars, getting off his face and giving the kind of quotes that can fill a tabloid with debate about his status as a role model (in the tabloids, everyone is a role model when they’ve been on the telly). But without the media would Charlie Sheen exist? Sheen’s love of the limelight suggests that he exists only to be on view. Exposure is what he is.

Julie Moos writes in Poynter:

Sheen has appeared on “The Alex Jones Show,” “The Dan Patrick Show,” “Loose Cannons,” NBC’s “Today” show, ABC’s “Good Morning America,” and CNN’s “Piers Morgan Tonight.” He has texted People magazine and RadarOnline and been interviewed live on TMZ.com. And he’s not done yet. Howard Stern says his show may be next. Tuesday evening, “20/20” will air a lengthy interview with the actor.

Lots of coverage for the actor who can raise hell in the cosy comfort of a home porn cinema of five star hotel suite.

The Kansas City Star’s Aaron Barnhart says “Enough’s enough” — “that the ‘enablers of tabloid journalism’ should intervene rather than interview.”

Phil Lynott Exhibition In Dublin: Photos And Memories

IT’S not long since Gary Moore died. A retrospective on his life is overdue in a TV schedule littered by dross and pap. While we wait for that, we went to see the Phil Lynott exhibition at the Creative Space in St. Stephens Green shopping centre, Dublin. “Still in Love With You”, organised by Hot Press magazine, features the “biggest ever collection of memorabilia, song lyrics, exhibits, paintings, tributes and photographs of the late rock legend”, who died 25 years ago.

Nelly Furtado Donates Gaddafi Concert Money To Sting

COLONEL Muammar Gaddafi and his kids in Libya (or the Caribbean and London – whichever is closer) love a good party. When Mickey Rouke and John Galliano get to play the Libyan dictator in film, they will be able to co-star with the likes of Nelly Furtado, Mariah Carey, Beyoncé and Usher, who have all been hired to perform for the family Gaddafi in recent years.

It should be a great show – perhaps the most tortuous musical since Godspell.

Helen Mirren And Helena Bonham Carter’s Road To Damascus: Photo

DAME Helen Mirren and Helena Bonham Carter arrived back from the Oscars in Los Angeles. For all the pneumatic glamour models and painted WAGs that Britain pumps out and up, the country still exports a different kind of sex appeal to the American mould. Mirren and Bonham Carter are quintessentially British stars – personable, relaxed and self-assured. The British film industry might be thinner than a dictator’s wife, but the talent is of a fine damascene quality…

RIP Jane Russell: A Life In Photos, Playtex And Bullet Bras

RIP Jane Russell. You were the screen siren who seduced The Outlaw in 1943. It was banned for two years. You could watch newsreels of death and destruction in Europe and the Far East. But if you woman to see a voluptuous woman in a tight top, it was forbidden.

She said of her career in 1999:

“Why did I quit movies? Because I was getting too old! You couldn’t go on acting in those years if you were an actress over 30.”

John Galliano’s Paris Line Is To Die Fuhrer: Video Of Jew Face Rant

JOHN Galliano is being billed as the Mel Gibson of fashion. Galliano, a man who look exactly like Colonel Gaddafi’s performance as Captain Hook at Tony Blair’s 1998 Christmas panto places his hand on his moustache curlers and says he made no anti-semitic comments in La Perle bar, Paris. He says he never called a woman a “dirty Jew face” at a bar in Paris.

A woman called Géraldine Bloch, 35, alleges Galliano eyed up her ensemble and uttered to she and her pal:

“Dirty Jewish face, you should be dead. Fucking Asian bastard, I will kill you.”

The Sun has gotten hold of video shot by someone in the bar. It says you can hear Galliano saying:

TO all the winners of a Golden Gopher, a BAFTA, a SAG, a Crystal Meth, a Bronze Turd any other film award shoe-horned around the Oscars: unlucky. They don’t matter. It’s all about the Oscars.

Charlie Sheen To Direct Cheers-Friends Porn Parody TV Show

CHARLIE Sheen was not mentioned when his dad Martin Sheen and brother Emillio Estevez rocked up to the Jameson Dublin Film Festival to promote ‘The Way‘. And while the snappers snapped and the hacks hacked, the big cocaine-coloured white elephant’s crack in the room was not mentioned. But Sheen, aka Elephant Crack, been busy calling into a radio talk show.

As a result of the call, Two And A Half Men, the CBS sitcom that we only started watching after Sheen locked an orangey porn start called Capri Sun in his closet and opened Kacey Jordan’s womb to frenzied debate, is on a long, long break.

CBS and Warner Bros announce:

“Based on the totality of Charlie Sheen’s statements, conduct and condition, CBS and Warner Bros. Television have decided to discontinue production of ‘Two and a Half Men’ for the remainder of the season.”

Was Catherine Zeta Jones Punched? Video

CATHERINE Zeta Jones, now a Commander of the Order of the British Empire, says a photographer punched her.

Zeta Jones was the ‘The Darling Dud of May’ (Sun) who used to shag Blue Peter’s John Leslie and starred in the Titanic you never watched. And then she became a huge star:

“No one taught me how to deal with press attention and I didn’t handle it well. I became edgy and uptight. I’d say ridiculous things – they’d print them. I’d do ridiculous things – they’d get me every time.”
