I've baked up a fresh batch of this week's celebrity gossip. Get it while it's hot!
Fresh from his new special on Comedy Central titled, "King Baby," comedian, Jim Gaffigan, will be in Duluth at the DECC Auditorium on April 16 for a night of hilarious stand-up. It is my great honor to feature a Question and Answer session with this comedic legend in next week's issue of Hollywood and Vine.
Do you think you have a great question to ask? Please send me your questions or comments for Jim by Friday, April 10, to be included in my interview.
According to Entertainment Weekly, it has been announced that former Beatle, George Harrison, will be given a posthumous star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The Beatles guitarist died in 2001 from cancer at the age of 58 and is best known for writing the bands beloved songs, "Here Comes the Sun" and "Something."
His widow, Olivia Harrison, and his son, Dhani, are expected to be on hand to commemorate this wonderful musician at the April 14 unveiling in Hollywood.
Actor Johnny Depp was seen hard at work last week on location in Puerto Rico for his next project called "The Rum Diary," based on a Hunter S. Thompson novel.
According to PerezHilton.com, Depp stars as a "journalist who leaves New York to work for a newspaper in San Juan, Puerto Rico, set in the 1950s." This is the second novel by Thompson that has been adapted for film staring Johnny Depp. The first was 1998's "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas."
Madonna has made her way back to Malawi, the birthplace of her adopted son, David Banda, to finalize the adoption of a baby girl named Mercy.
But, the Malawian officials are giving no mercy to this pop star. According to The Huffington Post, Madonna is having a lot of difficulty with the courts now that she is a single mother. Adoption laws also state that prospective parents must live in the country for up to a year to judge the child's welfare, a rule that was bent with David's adoption in 2006.
The Queen of Pop left the African country empty handed on April 5, to return to London to be with her other children: Lourdes, 12, and Rocco, 8. No court date has been set to appeal the case. Maybe the Jolie-Pitts could give her some adoption advice?
See you next week with Gaffigan from Hollywood and Vine.
