PALM WEST HOSTS CELEBRITY SERVERS

Randy Jones and Leslie Crocker Snyder

Who knew that former-judge LESLIE CROCKER-SNYDER was a wiz with a needle-and-thread? At PALM WEST's CELEBRITY SERVER earlier this week (which benefited the NYU School of Medicine), RANDY JONES, formerly of The Village People, was in the eatery's kitchen, when his well-worn jeans felt almost completely apart. "Let's just say that I could NOT walk back into the dining area like that," says Jones. Standing next to him was retired-judge LESLIE CROCKER-SNYDER, who said "I've got it", and whipped out a small sewing kit from her pocket. Jones and Snyder, surrounded by celebrity-chef ROCCO DeSPIRITO, Jokeman-JACKIE MARTLING; and Soprano-ROBERT FUNARO, broke into spontaneous applause.
Palm West GM CHRIS GILMAN, who witnessed the entire fracas firsthand added, "To me... Leslie saved the day ... as everyone was back out on the floor within a matter of minutes."

VICTORIA BECKHAM STILL IN SPICE GIRLS

Victoria Beckham lies to her children - by telling them she is still in the Spice Girls.The former pop singer - who is married to Real Madrid footballer David Beckham - has revealed her three sons, Brooklyn, seven, Romeo, four and one-year-old Cruz, had no idea what her job was before becoming a mother so she showed them 'Spice Girls: The Movie'. However, Victoria - better known as Posh Spice - didn't have the heart to tell her children the band no longer existed when they asked her about the group. She revealed in an interview with Britain's Radio 1: "I showed the kids 'Spice Girls: The Movie' the other day, because being in Spain it's all about football and all about daddy, and the kids said, 'Mummy what did you actually do?'"So I put on the movie, and they loved it and it was on heavy rotation. Then one day I had been out to work and when I came home Romeo came running up to me and said, 'Mummy, have you been working with the Spice Girls?'And I couldn't let him down, so I said, 'Yeah, mummy has been working with the Spice Girls'. And he said, 'Have you been driving that bus mummy?' "Despite her white lie, Victoria has ruled out a possible Spice Girls reunion with her former bandmates, Mel C, Mel B, Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell. She explained: "I'm not sure that's going to happen we are all doing our own thing now. I'm not sure if I'm up for jumping around on stage any more, I don't think there will be a reunion."

ANNA NICOLE SMITH TO DIG UP SONS BODY

Anna Nicole Smith is set to have the body of her dead son Daniel exhumed.The former Playboy playmate buried her son in the Bahamas on October 19, but now she is unlikely to be granted permanent residency in the country she may dig up Daniel's body to take back with her to the US. A source is quoted by website MSNBC as saying: "She waited as long as she did to bury him because she was trying to figure out if she could get his body into the US. "Now that she might get booted out, the word is she's going to take her son's body with her. "Anna Nicole, 38, has had her Bahaman residency challenged after it was revealed that the waterfront mansion she claimed to own actually belongs to someone else and she has been served with a notice of eviction. It is alleged that the former model was hoping to make the Bahamas her permanent home to avoid a paternity test on her newborn daughter Dannielynn. Anna Nicole has named her lawyer, and lover, Howard K. Stern as the father of her daughter but photographer Larry Birkhead claims he is the biological dad and has issued a court order demanding a paternity test. Daniel died in September at Anna Nicole's hospital bedside just hours after she had given birth to his new half-sister. A toxicology report found large amounts of prescription drugs in his blood stream.

KATE WINSLET WILL KNIFE YOU

Kate Winslet

Kate Winslet will "knife" anyone who calls her a bad mother. The 'Little Children' actress, who has a five-year-old daughter Mia and two-year-old son Joe, has warned people never to question her parenting skills. Kate threatened in Britain's Culture magazine: "People can throw anything they want at me, and be as mean as they like. But don't mess with me as a mother, because I will get out a knife and come after you! "The 31-year-old star says she felt "vulnerable" when she first became a mum and vehemently denies claims she abandoned her daughter Mia when she divorced her first husband Jim Threapleton. Kate fumed: "There was one article that suggested I wasn't even with my child and that she was with her dad. At that stage it was tough because I was facing the future of being a single mother. I was breast-feeding Mia until she was nine months - she was by my side every minute of every day."It's not fair to make stuff up. It's a very vulnerable time when you're a new parent. I was young - I was 25. When you're as young as that and going through a divorce, all you want to do it clutch your child to your bosom and hope you're doing everything right."Kate is now married to film director Sam Mendes.

DESPERATE MARCIA CROSS WANTS HER NUDE PICTURES BACK

Marcia Cross

'Desperate Housewives' star Marcia Cross is allegedly taking legal action to prevent nude photographs of her from being published. A firm hired to remove garbage from the pregnant star's Los Angeles home found over 200 personal photos of her being thrown out and are now trying to sell them to the highest bidder. The removal firm discovered the pictures when they arrived at the local dump and are now being represented by Phoenix-based agent David Hans Schmidt in their attempt to sell the pictures of flame-haired Cross. Scmidt told the New York Daily News newspaper: "There are some pictures of her showering outside. She looks absolutely gorgeous. And yes, the carpet does match the curtains."The pictures were not stolen. When you throw something away, you forfeit that property."We recognize the copyright issue, but US copyright law stops at the border."I'm not looking to mortify Ms. Cross, I just want the most money for my client."Cross, 44, and her husband Tom Mahoney, 48, are demanding the return of the pictures, their lawyers insist the images were thrown out by accident and the copyright belongs to the couple regardless. Schmidt - who earlier this year acquired the contents of Paris Hilton's public storage locker after she failed to pay the rent - is offering Cross the chance to buy back her photos, just as he did with Paris' locker contents. Schmidt claims to have also seen Cross' tax returns in the rubbish. He said: "I know how much she made, but out of respect for Ms. Cross, I won't discuss it."Cross and Mahoney were married last June. They are expecting twins in April and her pregnancy is to be written into the plot of 'Desperate Housewives'.

Both parents behaved amiably during the 90-minute lunchtime gathering, Britain's Hello! magazine reports.

In all, about 15 guests, a mixture of adults and children, attended the party, which reportedly featured entertainers for the kids. One mother whose son happened to be at the children's center as the party was wrapping up told Australia's Melbourne Herald Sun newspaper: "Bea looked lovely and seemed to be having a wonderful time. If I did not know what had been going on in their marriage in the last few months, I would never have guessed." The mom added, "Bea was smiling and laughing just like any other child, having a whale of a time." McCartney, 64, and former model Mills, 38, announced their separation in May, after four years of marriage. Divorce papers were filed in July.

TOM CRUISE AND KATIE HOLMES WEDDING PLANS

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are reportedly set to marry at the World War II hideout of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. The date for the couple's nuptials has been confirmed as the weekend of Friday November 17 to Sunday November 19 and it was initially reported that the pair were going to tie the knot at George Clooney's Italian villa at Lake Como. It has now been claimed that Tom and Katie are actually going to wed at Italy's lavish Villa Feltrinelli hotel which overlooks Lake Garda. Katie, 27, is believed to have chosen the location after falling in love with it during a trip to the area with close friend Victoria Beckham - the wife of soccer superstar David. The 19th Century building was used by fascist dictator Mussolini to hide from the Allied forces during the war, but the hotel's colored history didn't put off the 'Batman Begins' actress. A source told Britain's Daily Express newspaper: "Katie recently visited the hotel with Victoria and fell in love with it instantly. It's an ideal place for Tom and her to tie the knot because it's hidden away by dense greenery on the landward side, while the view on the opposite side which overlooks the lake is stunning. Katie was made aware that Mussolini used it as a war-time base, but she seemed more interested in the fact that the likes of Grace Kelly had stayed there."The hotel boasts 21 luxury bedrooms which are expected to be used by the wedding's star-studded guest list. Among those expected to attend, include Tom's fellow Scientologist JohnTravolta, George Clooney and Brad Pitt and his partner Angelina Jolie.

HOPE THEY HAVE CLOSETS FOR TOM !

NEW YORK COMEDY INTERVIEW: MARK AND ARI

JibJab has joined forces with legendary Hollywood director John Landis (Blues Brothers, Animal House, Trading Places) to bring the next generation of MUST SEE COMEDY to people around the world - and tuning in just takes the click of a mouse. Through this unique program, called the GREAT SKETCH EXPERIMENT (GSE), JibJab is changing the course of an entire industry helping up and coming entertainers / directors / producers bypass an entire channel and leapfrogging straight to the top to be seen and heard.

Ari Voukydis and Mark Sarian

How did you guys meet? How long have you been doing comedy together?
Ari: We met at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater ages ago. 8 years ago?
Mark: We were in an improv team called Beautiful Cop in 98.

Yes, 8 long years ago.

How did you find out about the JibJab GSE contest?
Mark: We were asked to submit by JibJab.
Ari: We knew Lydia (from JibJab) back from when she was in development with TV Land in NYC. When she went to JibJab we kept in touch and eventually it led to GSE.
Mark: We wrote three sketches and they chose one.
What was it like working with John Landis?
Ari: Unbelievable. The guy’s a legend.
Mark: It was amazing. He was so giving and really made us feel like peers. We took every direction he gave to heart.
Ari: Lots of time was spent listening to “3 Amigos” behind the scene stories. Which I could do all day.
What is your favorite John Landis film and why?
Ari: Oh that’s really tough. But I’ll say 3 Amigos, given that I watched in seven times in the theater when I was younger.
Mark: For me it has to be American Werewolf in London. Scary. Sexy, Bloody. Funny. It had it all.
What would you do with the $10,000 if you won?
Mark: First would be to try and trick Ari into believing it was $8,000. Then I think we really start to pump out some more Internet content.
Ari: I would have to give it to the kidnappers and get my daughter back unharmed.
Are you working on any new projects now?
Ari: Yes. Mark and I have a stage show in development for the winter. And we’re always working on more “very short films.” www.MarkandAri.com

Russell Crowe has revealed he would love to make Gladiator 2. The 42-year-old actor, who played Roman warrior Maximus in Oscar-winning film Gladiator, says he and director Ridley Scott (left with Crowe) are always thinking up sequel ideas - despite Crowe's character dying at the end of the first movie. Crowe told Britain's Daily Telegraph newspaper: The idea of doing a Gladiator 2 comes up all the time but we have made it very difficult for ourselves by killing off my character in the first one. We have an idea but it never seems to have sufficient credibility. It just comes back at us and says, Are you kidding? Maybe we are kidding. Maybe we just enjoy talking about it. There have been many rumors about possible plots for Gladiator 2 including a prequel plotline, or a sequel with a descendent of Maximus as the lead character or even Crowe's character coming back as a ghost. Meanwhile, Crowe says he agreed to star in new movie "A Good Year" because it was set in the South of France. Crowe said: I wanted to go to Provence and I wanted to take my family to a location that I knew my wife would enjoy. It just appealed to me.

Brad and Angelina are currently in India shooting "A Mighty Heart", a story about American journalist Daniel Pearl, who was kidnapped and later executed by al-Quaeda terrorists in Pakistan in 2002. British security experts reportedly rushed to Pune, India, earlier this week, after being alerted by Pakistan that the couple might be targeted because of the political nature of the film. A source told the National Enquirer: "These former SAS men arrived to aid American bodyguards already watching over the superstars and their three children. The authorities genuinely feared that the star couple could be prime targets for terrorists. The terror fear is also said to be the reason behind the decision to shoot the movie in Pune, as opposed to Pakistan, where the events actually took place.

ON THE TOWN WITH BETTINA CIRONE

THE OSMONDS

Donny and Marie Osmond

Donny and Marie Osmond unveiled both of their caricatures at Sardi’s last night. Marie’s caricature, a better likeness, came as a surprise to her and everyone else in the audience including her brother Donny. She was shocked because she thought she was there to honor her brother and to present his caricature to him, but as seen in photos she got one of her own. Donny feels he has come full circle because it was Disney that started their careers and he is currently appearing in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast as the character, Gaston. Despite the fact that he thought it did not look much like him, he was so pleased and honored to be on the celebrity wall at Sardi’s. Marie Osmond has not accepted work in the past few years because she has been devoting her time to taking care of her sick husband, then her Mom who became ill after which their Dad needed care. All this, and of course her kids.She is no longer the skinny little girl, but Marie still looks great, doesn’t she kiddies ?
