"Harder, faster!": Three Tommys for every Pam!
- - - - - - - - - - - -
Sept. 3, 1999 |
Apparently not, because in the upcoming issue of Men's Fitness,
Pamela Anderson Lee reveals that she keeps her son's
placenta in her fridge, crammed in among the milk and OJ. "We're going
to put it in our koi pond once our yard is finished," she tells the
buffness bible. "It says, 'Do not eat' on the bag." (Maybe somebody
should tell her that Japanese carp don't read English.) But the formerly bodacious former "Baywatch" babe and current producer
of her own hit TV show, "V.I.P.," doesn't stop there. She
also admits she's got a sneaker for "nasty, sexy" Mick Jagger,
she finds intelligence in a man "sexy but highly overrated," she loves
butt blasting and her most secret fantasies revolve
around her on-again, off-again, violence-prone hubby, former Mötley Crüe
drum-banger Tommy Lee. Her hidden desire? "Having
three Tommys at once." "I don't know if that's good or bad," she confesses. "It depends on what
kind of mood he's in." In fact, Anderson Lee comes off as a tad changeable herself. Asked what
words she most likes to hear a man say, she responds,
"Sorry." Then she alters her answer to "Yes, yes, yes, harder, faster."
(What did I say about over-sharing?) And then settles on "I love
you. You're the best. I worship you." Really, Pammy dear, this sort of thing reveals way more about you and
your hapless hubby than any pirated sex video ever could. - - - - - - - - - - - - Silicone Valley
girl? "I wore [a T-shirt sporting the phrase 'Silicone Free'] to work [on 'I
Know What You Did Last Summer'] one day and Scott
Wolf was like, 'What are you doing?' and he gave me his jacket." -- Naturally busty (and proud of it) actress Jennifer Love
Hewitt, recounting on-set reaction to her bold, body-boasting
sartorial
style. - - - - - - - - - - - - That thinking
feeling At the U.S. premiere party for "All the Little Animals," a fringy
British flick starring John Hurt and Christian Bale, at New York's Humane Society Tuesday night, conversation, naturally,
turned to the cognitive and emotive capabilities of our furry
four-legged friends. The film's director, Jeremy Thomas, offered evidence that dogs --
or at least pampered corgis -- do sometimes react to what
they see on-screen. (The queen will be so relieved.) Amy Reiter Amy Reiter's column appears daily on the People site, Monday through Friday.
Got a hot tip? Tell Amy! Thomas told entertainment reporter Baird Jones (who told Nothing Personal) that, back when he was working as an assistant on 1972's "Tam Lin," the film's star Ava Gardner once showed up with her two pet corgis to watch the rushes in a small theater. When a scene came up in which the actress was slapped in the face, recounted Thomas, "both corgis just rocketed at the screen, clawing and biting at the guy who had slapped Gardner. Then they bounced off the screen, still barking, fell around 8 feet into the orchestra pit below and seemed to be completely stunned." The corgis quickly came 'round and were returned to their rightful owner, a woman often billed as "The World's Most Exciting Animal." Although, come to think of it, given Gardner's questionable penchant for self-destructive marriages (to Frank Sinatra, Mickey Rooney, Artie Shaw), she herself might have disproved the concept that animals think. - - - - - - - - - - - - Time for a new tattoo? "As one does when one becomes a dad, you become all the clichés that you feared for 36 years. You become that guy who says 'I just had a baby' and pulls a picture out of his wallet." -- Fresh daddy Johnny Depp on the alarming effects of fatherhood. - - - - - - - - - - - - Juicy bits Two words you may never have expected to hear uttered in succession: Claymation Jesus. But soon, you'll be able to see Claymation Jesus in action. Ralph Fiennes will give voice to the gummy version of the Christian savior -- joined by Miranda Richardson as Mary Magdalene -- in the Mel Gibson-funded stop-action, 3-D and digitally animated, "The Miracle Worker," set to air on Easter Sunday Y2K. (No, I don't think Helen Keller figures in there anywhere, not even turning wa-wa into wine.) "It sounds funny -- a Claymation life of Jesus," ABC TV exec Jeff Bader recently admitted to the press. "But we screened it and it was spectacular. We were mesmerized by the look of it. It is so different." Now, now ... you can just keep all those sacrilegious quips about clay feet to yourself. Is Michael Kinsley going the way of Matt Drudge? The New
York Post reports that Slate's head honcho has been
chatting it up with TV types about creating a show called "Slate TV,"
touching off a new round of speculation about Microsoft's
commitment to the Web site after unceremoniously unloading its Sidewalk
sites to CitySearch some weeks ago. "We are in talks right
now and expect to have an announcement soon," Kinsley told the paper. Am
I the only one who'd get up extra early to watch tireless scribe
Scott Shuger regurgitate the contents of the daily papers?
(Possibly.)
