I’m not one to gossip,, but ... Jack Nicholson, 51, has banned his long-time lover, actress Anjelica Huston, from watching his favourite basketball team, L.A. Lakers. Anjelica, 34, says: “Jack thinks they always lose when I’m there and I bring them bad luck.” American TV comedy star Roseanne Barr has pushed her show’s producers into hiring her new love, Tom Arnold, as a regular on the show next season. The unknown comic, who’s got Roseanne’s real-life marriage on the rocks, will play a trouble-making cousin of Roseanne’s TV husband, John Goodman. But from what I hear John is not at all happy about Tom joining the show. Ex “Dynasty” star John James is having his drycleaning stolen from his regular cleaners. A lovesick fan keeps stealing the clothes he takes in for cleaning. She calls in for them, saying she is his assistant. So far John has lost two suits, five shirts and a selection of underpants to the fan. I hear that Michael Jackson and Marlon Brando are heading to Russia to make a movie together. Michael will play the Russian poet

Alexander Pushkin, who had African ancestry, and Marlon will star as his mentor. The mind boggles! Former “Magnum P. 1.” star John Hillerman got spoiled being chauffeured around Hawaii for years when he was on the show. Now that he’s back living in L.A. he’s bought himself a limo and hired a full-time driver. But he wants to keep it a secret because he doesn’t want his friends to think he’s gone completely Hollywood.

Music queen Tiffany, 17, is claiming in court

that her ex manager, George Tobin, took more than $200,000 that’s rightfully hers and accuses him of failing to act in her best interest. For Bill Cosby’s fiftysecond birthday his beautiful wife Camille bought him a radio which was made in 1937, the year he was born. She payed $15,000 for it, and she thinks it was worth every cent. Little Michael Jackson’s sister La Toya is not at all happy with her publishers — they have had second thoughts about publishing her tell-tale book. Their lawyers feel the book is too scandalous. This could also be a very good bit of pre-publicity for the book. Alyssa Milano, 16, who stars in “Who’s the Boss,” has recently become engaged to a New York hockey player, Wayne Mcßean. Her mother and father are not too happy about it. “Entertainment tonight” star Leeza Gibbons, 32, says that she and husband Christopher Quinten will be in New Zealand for TVNZ’s 1990 Telethon. They will be bringing little Jordan Alexandra with them. I hear that they want to be stationed in Christchurch, where they first met ... but my lips are sealed!
