Hollywood PrivacyWatch: Warren Beatty and Annette Bening

1/8 — So tonight I'm sitting at the always awesome Itacho on beverly when I look up and realize I'm in the presence of greatness — WARREN BEATTY and Diane Keaton! Oh wait — that's not Diane Keaton... that's ANNETTE BENING in a big knit scarf a la Diane Keaton and big Morrissey glasses a la Diane Keaton. You can understand how I might have mistaken the two under those circumstances. So it wasn't a Reds reunion — it was still mother-effing Warren Beatty and mother-effing Annette Bening and they mother-effing rock. Oh, and all their kids. Which I didn't realize they had so many. Maybe it was their kids and some of their kids' friends? [Hollywood PrivacyWatch is written by and for Defamer readers; send your sightings to tips@defamer.com.]

Jack Nicholson, Warren Beatty Implicated in A-List SAG Strike Warm-Up: UPDATE

'70s Screen Stars Spill Sexy Sex Secrets

A dear friend who knows I adore this kind of crap gave me an issue of a magazine called Motion Picture, from February 1977. This publication cost 75¢ at the time, but was worth every penny! Because inside was the kind of scandalous stuff — right out of celebrities' mouths — that is truly priceless. The subject: Sex. The answers: Quite candid! When asked about their fantasies, both Elton John and Pam Grier replied that they'd like multiple partners. Pam wanted three dudes (one of whom was James Caan); Elton wanted "a crowd." Warren Beatty could never be involved with a girl who was not attractive. Oh, and he said, "It helps if she's stacked." Much more, after the jump. [Jezebel]

AFI Mounts A Night For Unabashed Beatty Fetishism

Calcifying Hollywood icon Warren Beatty, the legendary playboy auteur famous for having created some of the most lauded and influential films of all time (as well as having slept with approximately 48,000 aspiring actresses between the years of 1967 and 1979), received a lifetime achievement award from the American Film Institute at a gala reception held at the Kodak Theatre last night. Here's a round-up of the goings on: More »

Warren Beatty Caught In The Shameful Act Of Trendy Clubbing

Hollywood club attendance monitor TMZ.com has boldly supplemented its exclusive video coverage of Hyde's velvet rope-protected front door with the groundbreaking monitoring of its tragically underwatched rear egress, a secret exit so "ultra-exclusive" that only the town's biggest names are allowed to partake of its paparazzi-bypassing luxury. This increased effort to cover all access points to the establishment paid immediate dividends last night, as TMZ's cameraman caught a visibly ashamed Warren Beatty (those intermittent flashbulbs truly capture his embarassment) trying to discreetly flee the B-lister-infested glory-hole with which he'd rather not be associated. Now that Hyde's Passage of Shame has been compromised, its owners will be forced to come up with new ways to smuggle out its publicity-averse clientele, perhaps by constructing a series of underground tunnels that allow patrons to emerge from more respectable nearby venues, like the Sunset 5 arthouse theater, allowing slumming stars to avoid such humiliating incidents in the future.
