Bedfellas

April 7, 2000 | But not since he was 7 and she was 5. "I think we fell asleep in our mom's bed while we were watching television," Haven tells Us Weekly, dismissing rampant rumors of more recent bed-sharing between them as "sick." "I've heard what people are saying, and it's a very weird thing. They're going into a realm where it's something that's almost ugly rather than something that can be beautiful," he says. "We love each other, and if that's unusual these days, that's sad." Amy Reiter Amy Reiter's column appears daily on the People site, Monday through Friday.
Got a hot tip? Tell Amy! Oh, brother. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - A conservative opinion "Conservatives are like Jews. If there are five of them in the room, there are 10 opinions on any subject." -- Salon columnist David Horowitz at a dinner held in Washington Wednesday night in his honor and attended by considerably more conservatives -- Rep. Bob Barr, Rep. Helen Chenowethand far-right direct-mail god Richard Viguerie, to name just three -- than Jews. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Read 'em and weep You'll never guess what I just got in the mail. "The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra plays the music of Meat Loaf." Of course, like a bat out of hell, I skittered over to my computer and plunked it right in the CD slot and cranked up the volume. The moment the string section swung into "Paradise by the Dashboard Light," I knew I was done for. "What the hell's going on in there?" hollered an irritable colleague. The RPO has slummed like this before -- giving similar treatment to U2, Madonna, Oasis and R.E.M. -- but never before has it been able to boast, "Here are 12 simply amazing versions of the big man's biggest hits!" Or, as John Martland points out in the liner notes, "Meat Loaf ... along with Wagner and Mozart? An orchestra can't be much more versatile than that." He took the words right out of my mouth. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Skivvy bombs "When I'm singing a ballad and a pair of underwear lands on my head, I hate that. It really kills the mood." -- Tom Jones on his panty-flinging fans on TV Guide Online. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - If you're Eric Nederlander, don't read this And you thought it was the marriage about nothing ... Jerry Seinfeld and his wife, Jessica Sklar, are expecting a baby in October. Regis Philbin announced the couple's happy news Thursday morning on "Live with Regis and Kathie Lee." "How will we know if the baby is Jerry's?" inquires one NP reader. "Will it come out and say, 'What's the deal with wombs?'" Yadda, yadda, yadda ... - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Porn free "My management told me I should get into pornos. They think I could be very prosperous." -- Pop heartthrob Enrique Iglesias on his career plans. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Juicy bits Nicolas Cage has withdrawn the petition he filed six weeks ago for a divorce from Patricia Arquette, from whom he has been separated for years. Seems those differences weren't so irreconcilable after all. Kathleen Turner's getting mixed reviews for her turn as Mrs. Robinson in the West End production of "The Graduate." Some critics are hailing her bravery for daring to bare it all in the play's seduction scene, but U.K. Mirror theater critic Tony Purnell warns that little of the actress can be made out in the dim blue light. "Anyone from the dirty mac brigade who invests 40p in the theatre binoculars to get an eyeful," he writes, "is in for disappointment." Don't say he didn't warn you. Not a love match? Russia's Pravda newspaper reports that hockey pro Pavel Bure has broken off his engagement to tennis player Anna Kournikova because her mother is too meddlesome. What's more, Bure told the paper, "A wedding is not in my plans. At the moment I love hockey more than anything." Ten minutes in the penalty box for unnecessary roughness! He may be only 10, but Cody Gifford apparently knows a good opportunity for a lawsuit when he sees one. The Associated Press reports that Kathie Lee Gifford's beloved boy is suing the National Examiner for libel, claiming that the tabloid fabricated a story that Cody disrupted the set of the ABC movie "Janine & Alex: Cover Girls," in which he appeared. "It's a gratuitous, nasty article about a ... child and they think they ought to take some action," Los Angeles lawyer Barry Langberg said of the article headlined "Kathie Lee's Turning Poor Cody into a Monster." That'll give her something to talk about.
