The French Honor Clint Eastwood

They just made his day!

Clint Eastwood was bestowed a great honor from the French government today as he was made a commander in the prestigious French Legion of Honor. The Legion, which was established in 1802, recognizes individuals, French or otherwise, who have made major military, cultural, scientific or social contributions.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy warmly welcomed Clint and proceeded to step up his previous induction into the legion to a grade three on the legion's five-grade scale.

Though he spoke English, Clint thanked Sarkozy and the French people for the honor: "This is a wonderful honor. It is just a great pleasure for me. I really love France. I love movies, and I love the appreciation that the French people have for movies."

You would think the guy would learn a little French for the occasion! Maybe the old dog can't learn that trick.

Zsa Zsa Owes Big Time!

Things aren't looking good for extremely old Zsa Zsa Gabor.

The former beauty queen and actress is said to owe the U.S. government $118,321 in unpaid taxes!

An official tax lien was filed in El Lay last month to try and recoup the $$$, but Zsa Zsa still hasn't repaid her debt.

She should just consider herself lucky she isn't Nicolas Cage. If it takes him any longer to pay off his debt, he's not going to need any of his houses. He'll just hang out in prison.

Quote Of The Day

wenn2599553.jpg

"I owe 30 per cent (of my good looks) to genes, 30 per cent to good sex, 30 per cent because of sports and healthy lifestyle and for the remaining 10 per cent, I have to thank my plastic surgeon. I'm 71, but I'm happier, the sex is better and I understand life better. I don't want to be young again."

Joe Perry Says Aerosmith Breakup Is Still A Go

wenn5157302aero__opt1.jpg

Despite an impromptu appearance by Steve Tyler at one of Joe Perry's solo shows a few days ago and his announcement that he wasn't leaving the band, word from Joe is that the breakup is still on.

Joe told Rolling Stone magazine that the night of his gig in New York, he had no idea that Steve was at the venue, nor did he know that he was going to tell the crowd he wasn't leaving Aerosmith. This was news to him, as he explains that the plans for Steve to leave the band have become very definite:

"There was all this commotion during our encore break and somebody said, ‘Steven is here.’ I was like, 'What?'…So he came up and sang and that was the last I saw of him…He (Tyler) wants to take two years off from the band. The rest of the band wants to keep on working. We have so many different options to fill up that time. Anything is possible at this point."

We still don't know if you can have an Aerosmith without Steve Tyler. You're pretty popular Joe, but he is still the voice. And now it seems more like you guys are pushing him out, rather than him quitting.

What do you say to that, Joe?

Steven Tyler is NOT Leaving Aerosmith

The band couldn't have been the same without him!

Steven Tyler appeared at the 2009 Glamour Women of the Year Awards last night and when questioned about the rumors that he was leaving Aerosmith, he replied:

"Does it look like I'm leaving Aerosmith? You know what it is, it's those people who are putting out Joe's [Perry] album. Joe's doing a solo album. So people are paying attention to that."

Steven is also working on a solo album himself, but that doesn't lead up to an Aerosmith break-up!

So that's that! Mystery solved!

Hollywood Legend Warren Beatty Sues Studio Over Dick

dick6a00d8341c630a53ef01053.jpg

Dick Tracy, that is.

Back in the eighties, Warren Beatty bought the rights to the franchise from Tribune Co, turning it into a hit film in which he starred and directed. It's been many years since any new material starring the yellow-coated crimesolver, but that may have due to a roadblock set up by Tribune.

The company is desperately seeking to grab hold of the franchise, as it might be the only thing to save them from bankruptcy. Therefore, Tribune is suggesting that Warren's hold on the detective has lapsed, since it has been so many years since a new project has been started.

But there is no screwing with Warren Beatty and he has just be given the go ahead to sue Tribune over the franchise. He contends that he attempted to bring back Dick Tracy as early as last year, but it was then that Tribune told him about the lapse.

We're not interested in seeing anything about Dick Tracy unless Madonna is in it. That's why we hope Warren prevails. We'll have a better shot that way!

Or did she die in the 1990's version? We can't remember, but we'd still rather see Warren win anyway. He's old and needs small victories!

Well we saw how good David Bowie looked last week and here's his wife, supermodel Iman, out in New York with their daughter Alexandra Bowie, over the weekend looking equally as amazing.

Iman is 54!

Looks like they're having a fun girls' day out in the city.

How cool it must be to have those two as parents!

Aerosmith Is Moving Out!

aerosmith.jpg

It sure looks like they're really over!

Joe Perry's Guitar Hero bus and another white bus were spotted outside of Aerosmith's recording studio in Massachusetts on Monday. Equipment was being moved out of the studio all day.

Big ego or not, we don't think there's much to Aerosmith if there's no Steven Tyler.

Maybe they'll make a comeback in a few years when they're 100!

Thanks to Perezcious reader Kate for the tip!
