Unlike most guys, Marc Jacobs isn't afraid of showing a lil bit of affection with his on/off boyfriend Jason Preston. The couple were spotted in a tight lip lock outside the Mercer Hotel indulging in some serious tongue action. Maybe it was the sight of his lover's colourful Adidas trainers or perhaps it was Jason's cleavage that made Marc pucker up. Either way despite their on/off status, both parties seemed more than willing to share saliva juices.

Seal wasn't too pleased to see photographers as he and wife Heidi Klum arrived at LAX following a quick trip over to see us Brits in Blighty. The normally chilled out singer smacked the light off a photographers video-camera for reasons unlnown to us. However Seal seemed to be alone in his fight with the paps as a perplexed Heidi responded, "What are you doing?". Hmmm, could it be that Seal didn't want the paps to get a look at the presents he and Heidi brought the kids from England? I don't know, but seeing that Seal is normally a lovely person, I'm going to put this down to a bad flight. Pictures: Phamous Fotos

The Douglas name has been bought into disrepute following charges of cocaine possession by Michael Douglas' son, Cameron. According to official reports, "self employed" Cameron, 28 and friend, Christopher Lane, 30 were allegedly caught with liquid cocaine and a syringe in a hotel car park. The charges originate from an arrest in July where the pair were picked up by police at the Sandyland Reef Hotel in Carpinteria, California, after being spotted illegally parked in Cameron's dad's silver BMW. Both men have been ordered to appear in court on November 16.

Only last week Jack Nicholson said he believed in Joe Torre and now a week later, the New York Yankee supremo has handed his resignation as New York Yankees manager. According to reports Torre was offered a $5 million, one-year contract - $2.5 million less than he made this season, when the Yankees failed to make it past the first round of the playoffs for the third straight year. Speaking at a press conference yesterday Torre told how he felt rejected by the Yankees contract and wasn't even sure if he would throw out a ceremonial first pitch sometime after the Yankees open their new ballpark in 2009. “I walked out of there, and I’m not going back,” Torre said Friday. “I just leave the memories." During his time as manager, Joe Torre had accomplished four World Series titles, 12 straight years in the playoffs, almost certain entry into the Hall of Fame, but the thought of losing his dignity to a team was just too much to bear. 'If somebody wants you to do a job, and it takes them two weeks to figure out, yeah, ‘I guess we should do this,’ you’re a little suspicious,” Torre said, adding later, “If somebody wanted me to manage here, I’d be managing here.” The replacement for Torre has yet to be announced, but bench coach Don Mattingly is the leading contender to replace Torre. Other contenders are Yankees broadcaster Joe Girardi, Tony La Russa and Bobby Valentine. Who do you think will make the cut? Picture: Kevin P Coughlin

I thought this day couldn't get any better after creepy street performer David Copperfield was accused of rape and the FBI raided his warehouse but much arch-nemesis Claire Danes received terrible reviews for her performance as Eliza Doolittle in "Pygmalion."

The New York Post described Danes' transformation from a poor, uneducated cockney flower girl into a society lady as "handsomely done," but The New York Times said her "game, conscientious portrayal doesn't make much of an impression." "Ms Danes works hard at maintaining audibility," wrote New York Times reviewer Ben Brantley. "But the effort pre-empts her relaxing into anything like spontaneous emotions ... And there's no fire in her final face-off with Henry."

The unbiased untrained eye may look at those reviews and go "Hey Chris, those look more like 'mixed' reviews than 'terrible' reviews, what's your deal?" Just like you don't read the New York Times for the latest on the Yankees, you don't read The Post for their theater reviews. So I'm striking the NYP review from the mix because I am selfish immature grudge holding a**hole it is an aberration proving that she stinks.
