John Travolta is Gay, Carrie Fisher Says

John Travolta is gay and it's no secret - just ask Carrie Fisher.
Travolta has been followed by gay rumors and reports since the late 1980s, always denying them and often enlisting a team of lawyers to take action.
But Fisher, most famous for her iconic portrayals of Princess Leia in the original Star Wars trilogy, tells The Advocate that her old friend is ... well ...

Carrie and John go way back, but is she telling it like it is?

The Advocate asks: “I know you and Travolta go way back, so let’s get really blunt here: Does his (Travolta’s) legal team have any business demanding Gawker remove a recent post suggesting that he’s given (bleep) jobs?”
Her response: “Wow! I mean, my feeling about John has always been that we know and we don’t care. Look, I’m sorry he’s uncomfortable with it, that’s all I can say. It only draws more attention to it when you make that kind of legal fuss."
This isn't her first such comment about Travolta, either.
In a 2009 Advocate interview, Fisher lists among 10 Things Gay Men Should Know About Women that “We don’t really care that John Travolta is gay.”
Travolta was first publicly called gay by porn star Paul Barresi who gave an interview about an alleged gay relationship with Travolta in the 1980s.
He later recanted that story and subsequently said the story was true.
Other men have come forward alleging sexual contact with John, who recently became a father again, welcoming a son with wife Kelly Preston.
The latest of alleged Travolta paramours, Robert Randolph, recently came forward to tell the National Enquirer about the star's "secret gay life."
Randolph's new book has drawn heavy fire from Travolta’s legal team as the author alleges to have direct knowledge of Travolta's gay dalliances.
Do you think he's gay? Does it even matter?

Britney Spears' Official Statement: The Tape Is Bogus

Britney Spears' rep just gave TMZ a statement, which calls the audio recording posting online "so obviously fake as to be laughable."



The statement we received goes on:  "Suffice it to say, Jason Trawick has never laid a hand on Britney."

And the rep lashes out, "This is just another example of the irresponsible nature of the tabloid media relying on shoddy sources and false information for the sole purpose of selling magazines, without regard to the truth and without regard to who they hurt in the process."  The rep says Star was informed that the story was bogus in advance, but still published it.

The rep adds that "The statements attributed to Jason Alexander are a complete fabrication as Britney has not had any form of communication with Mr. Alexander in years."

And, the rep says, "These irresponsible statements are defamatory and Britney Spears' legal team will be taking legal action against all of the appropriate parties."

Tom Brady -- Your Loss Is Ro-Gaine

Tom Brady may be getting a new linebacker -- a hairline backer.



The folks from Rogaine tell TMZ they're more than happy to offer the reportedly follically-challenged QB a 3-month supply of the product.

Rogaine's PR people offer this sage advice to Tom:  "He shouldn't just try and grow his hair to cover that bald spot...he should try and regrow the HAIR that belongs there!"

The company wants to send Tom a free, 3-month supply of Hair Regrowth Foam -- the unscented, so he doesn't get bullied by his teammates.

On the bright side, Tom, it's another way to stay topical.

Rachel Uchitel Speaks on Celebrity Rehab Stint, Battle With "Love Addiction"

In a rare TV interview, Tiger Woods' famed mistress Rachel Uchitel spoke on the Today Show about her addiction to love and how that led her astray.
Appearing alongside her Celebrity Rehab mentor, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Rache promoted her stint on the VH1 program and explained why she went on it.
"I knew that I needed help," Uchitel, who claims she went on the program to deal with her love addiction. "And I wanted to get it from Dr. Drew."

Uchitel she needs help ... and had some lip injections.

The 35-year-old all-pro mistress also said she was being treated for addiction to Ambien and other prescribtion medications, which she did not identify.
Dr. Dew said Rachel Uchitel's condition is partly triggered by traumatic events in her past, such as the premature deaths of her father and fiance Andy.
She was set to get married before he perished in the 9/11 attacks.
"People think it is a moral issue if somebody falls in love, all over the place," Uchitel said. "It is not, it is a disease and disorder; you feel like you have a hole in your heart and are waiting for a knight in shining armor to come and save you."
In her case, that knight must be married and famous.
"But it is not an excuse for anyone's behavior. You get stuck in relationships that are not right; you put a mask over somebody and pretend they’re somebody they’re not. You get disappointed when they don’t react the way you want."
Pretty much what happened with David Boreanaz.
Fortunately, "I'm a completely different person now than I was before I went on the show," Uchitel said of the "most intense" Celebrity Rehab season yet.
The show premieres Wednesday. Don't miss it.

Brangelina Goes AWOL on Thanksgiving

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt did their thing on Thanksgiving.
What that was, we have absolutely no idea, but it appears their kinds hung out on the beach for the holiday Angelina loathes, parents nowhere in sight.
Pax, Shiloh, Zahara, Knox and Vivienne were all spotted at the beach, accompanied by their nannies on Thanksgiving. No sign of Ange or of Brad Pitt.

REWRITING HISTORY: Brangelina will have none of it.

Pitt did comment earlier that the family would be overseas, but did not mention specific plans. Likely because Angelina Jolie hates Thanksgiving.
“Angelina Jolie hates this holiday and wants no part in rewriting history like many other Americans,” a source said of her perception of the day.
“To celebrate what the white settlers did to the native Indians, the domination of one culture over another, just isn’t her style at all."
Apparently she put her money where her mouth is, at least.

Kate Gosselin Wastes Money on Tanning

What do you do when your diva-like ways are running your family into fiscal despair? If you're Kate Gosselin, you go get your tan on in Reading, Pa.
The mother of eight was seen exiting a local tanning salon, where she channeled her inner Snooki, before heading over to do "business" at a FedEx.
Here's Kate looking lean and sort of tan ...

BRIGHTER DAYS: Kate Gosselin has seen them.

We're not criticizing the tanning industry overall, but it seems like a waste of money when you've got eight mouths to feed and limited income, no?
Seriously, the children eat moldy food so you can do this!?!?
Kate, who recently admitted that her kids are under pressure lately, yet shows no apparent inclination to do anything about that, spent Thanksgiving day with the enormous brood before handing them off to their deadbeat dad.
