Vanessa Paradis sort of kind of denied that VaJohnny was over, but the rumor that she’s staying home with the chirruns while he’s out there being a drunk slut is still around. The latest rumor from InTouchWeekly (aka The Grain of Salt Times) is that Johnny spent the night in the den of a Trollsen and didn’t want anybody to know about it. On February 26th, Johnny slid into Ashley Olsen’s Tribeca troll chambers and tried to make a slick escape the next day by exiting out an office building connected to her apartment building. An e-mail went around to office workers telling them that Johnny was coming through because he wanted to escape from the paps. But a source says that the truth is Johnny didn’t want anybody to know he was up in a Trollsen’s cave.
It turns out the star, 48, was secretly leaving 23-years younger Ashley’s loft after a sneak slumber party. Arriving in the afternoon of February 26, Johnny hunkered down in Ashley’s Tribeca digs until noon the next day — nearly 24 hours later. “It was quiet in her apartment, like it was just the two of them in there,” an insider recalls, and though no one outside can know what happened, “It didn’t seem like it was just a visit between friends.”

Who knew movies like this were made anymore? Why isn’t it just called Winning Paris? And who knew mid-20somethings Katie Cassidy and Leighton Meester were game to topline this kind of stuff? Those two represent the finest in post-elementary school melodrama, and Monte Carlo’s obviously middling summer fare for kids. I’m confused. Ah, wait: Nicole Kidman is an executive producer. That’s a big deal. I’d shut up and dance on the Champs-Ãlysées too.
Of course, this script used to be something much different. Originally, the story centered on middle-aged women (Kidman was set to play a leading role) who go to Paris and meet a quartet of gigolos posing as wealthy playboys. That might’ve been too interesting, so I’m glad the movie found its true potential as a bizarre time capsule of ’90s Disney Channel cinema. So strange. At any rate: Andie MacDowell’s in this! I’m always hoping she’ll gain back the Francophile cred she forfeited in Green Card.
Verdict: Paris is burning with shame.
