Former supermodel Janice Dickinson made faces for the paparazzi yesterday while getting a touch-up at MAC on Robertson Blvd. I don't know what I'm more shocked by: Janice Dickinson's death-like man-face, or that her make-up isn't applied by a spray gun in an auto body shop. Which reminds me, you know what they should bring back? Veils. Just putting it out there.

NASSAU, Bahamas - Authorities in the Bahamas have charged an island lawmaker and detained two other people in an alleged plot to extort money from actor John Travolta after the death of his son, police said Friday. Two of the suspects ambulance driver Tarino Lightbourne and former tourism minister Obie Wilchcombe were detained on Friday. Earlier, several tabloids quoted Lightbourne describing efforts to revive the celebrity's chronically ill son, Jett, who died of a seizure this month at their family vacation home on Grand Bahama.
Sen. Pleasant Bridgewater, an attorney from Grand Bahama, was arrested on Thursday. She was charged with abetment to extort and conspiracy to extort and released Friday on $40,000 bail, according to Assistant Superintendent of Police Loretta Mackey.
Authorities said Travolta filed a complaint of attempted extortion but they did not reveal what the allegations involved. The actor and his wife Kelly Preston returned home to Florida with the ashes of their 16-year-old son, and Travolta's publicist Paul Bloch said Friday that he has no comment.
Senior Assistant Commissioner of Police Marvin Dames said Lightbourne the ambulance driver was detained after police issued an alert that he was wanted for attempted extortion, was "considered dangerous and should be approached with caution."
Lightbourne remained in police custody late Friday and was assisting police, according to a police statement.
Wilchcombe a member of the Bahamas parliament and an ex-tourism minister was arrested Friday in connection with the complaint, questioned by police and released "pending further investigations," Mackey said.
Wilchcombe has described himself as a friend of Travolta who was with the actor shortly after his son died.

Yes, it is very true! George Clooney will be playing Dr. Ross once again when he makes a guest appearance for ER's 15th and final season. Even more exciting, the sexy doc was said to be filming with his ER love interest, Julianna Margulies! (I've caught a glimpse of him filming and it appears that he is wearing a wedding ring! Mr. and Mrs. Doug Ross, loves it!)I can't contain my excitement! The hospital drama has stepped up this season with appearances from some of our favorite docs, but I have a feeling this one might top them all! Tune in! The season finale airs April 2nd on NBC.
So today I found out that Nick Lachey is doing more than sitting on the beach with his girl (which is what the tabloids want you to believe). He's helping out V8 in their efforts to feed the needy. According to their site: V8 recognizes that for too many Americans, the possibility of a day without food is a constant reality. More than 35 million people nationwide face the everyday challenge of wondering where their next meal is coming from. As a result, V8 has teamed up with Feeding America (formerly America's Second Harvest) to donate more than 30 million servings of fresh vegetables to local food banks throughout the country over the next six months. Good job Nick!

The Golden Globe goes to:
The more we hear about Jett Travolta's death, the more mysterious it becomes. The Bahamas police are pointedly disagreeing with John Travolta's lawyers' statements. John's lawyers have been talking incessantly about the tragedy.
Tom Cruise, a family friend of John Travolta and Kelly Preston, is speaking out about the tragic death of their 16-year-old son Jett. "I remember Jett when he was born," Cruise, 46, says on The View, scheduled to air on Friday. "I saw him when he was just a few months old and John just adored him, and both of his children, and Kelly.
John�s �Primary Colors� director Mike Nichols told People that he�s certain the Travolta/Preston family would continue to endure during this difficult time.
He may show a brave face in public and on the set of his new television drama �The Beast,� but Patrick Swayze has admitted his day-to-day battle with pancreatic cancer is scary.
"Because I think we put the adorable back in crazy in this movie and I think there's something empowering about female craziness that's very nice, that I support. And also, it's just a good time at the movies. Like I said, brides behaving badly, I think it's a lot of fun." - Anne Hathaway on why people should see her upcoming flick Bride Wars.
John Travolta hugged the body of his son at a Bahamian hospital and told the teen "I'm sorry, Jett". Medic Tarino Lightbourn revealed the heart-wrenching scene. "I think he meant, 'I'm sorry, Jett. I did all I could do," he said.
