Nov. 13, 1999 |
- - - - - - - - - - - - Monday: "The prose of Hackman, the passion of Hillary" Gene Hackman, novelist? Yep, the actor and his diving buddy, underwater archaeologist Daniel Lenihan, have just released a deep-sea swashbuckler called "Wake of the Perdido Star." (Not ghost-written, they promise.) "We got back from the first edit a number of pages that I insisted meant 'Excellent!' when they made this giant X across the whole page," says Hackman, "but Dan persuaded me that that was a cut."

don't extend to the sale of "rare photos" of a notorious sex organ. Or perhaps the eBay powers that be simply haven't heard yet that
their site is now the place to purchase pics of John Wayne
Bobbitt's reattached schlong. Bobbitt promoter Robert Yates has put up for auction graphic
photos of his client's penis reattachment (comes complete with
medical records!) and subsequent enlargement surgery. Amy Reiter Amy Reiter's column appears daily on the People site, Monday through Friday.
Got a hot tip? Tell Amy! If interest seems a little flaccid at the moment, Yates is confident that bidding will perk up once Bobbitt's Japanese fans -- who, Yates maintains, regard his client as something of a folk hero -- get a load of the offer.

Cindy Crawford, Rebecca Romijn-Stamos and Daisy Fuentes beg to differ. For instance, the flattery can be oh so tiresome. "During a shoot, people are shouting, 'Rebecca, you're beautiful. You look beautiful. You look beautiful,'" says Romijn-Stamos in an upcoming Mademoiselle interview with all three models. But, finishes Crawford, "It's not about you." What's more, too much gorgeousness can ruin a person's appetite. "If my husband and I are having dinner with another couple," says Crawford, "I don't go as a supermodel. I put on less makeup. I wear a ponytail. And nothing tight. I don't want that to get in the way of a woman being open to me as a person."

Michael Jackson has signed on to play the neurotic 19th century poet in the big-budget indie flick "The Nightmare of Edgar Allan Poe." Filming will start next year in Montreal. Quoth the raven: "What the ...?!" Read the entire Nothing Personal Column for Thursday, Nov.11. - - - - - - - - - - - - Friday: Extra! Extra! Nothing Personal takes a rare day off! I'll return next week -- tanned, rested and ready to dish.
