The Fawcett Truth Is Starting To Leak Out

Compiled By Staff Writer Rick Bo

Filmmaker James Orr faces criminal charges stemming from a recent fracas with girlfriend Farrah Fawcett.

While she asked that Orr not be charged, according to People, police reported “bruises and dried blood on both elbows and knees, scratches on both sides of her neck, abrasions on the left cheekbone and lower back, and a half-inch cut on the top of her skull.”

Orr, who was reportedly upset because Fawcett turned down his marriage proposal, claims she broke some windows with a metal security sign off his lawn before returning with a baseball bat.

In a Details magazine interview before the incident, Fawcett was quoted as saying: “I don’t understand going without a fight. No way, man. I may go down, but I’m taking some of you with me.”

Loose talk

Basketball star Grant Hill, on his relationship with singer Tamia: “She is good at pingpong. Like a lot of girls I’ve dated, she reminds me of my mom.”

The name has a familiar ring to it

Lou Diamond Phillips turns 36 today.

And we hear she got a really big rock

Actress Sharon Stone married San Francisco Examiner executive editor Phil Bronstein at a private Valentine’s Day party at her Beverly Hills home. The couple, both of whom have been married before, are honeymooning at an undisclosed location.

Still making beauty-fool music together

So what do cute couple David Duchovny and Tea Leoni do behind those tinted automobile windows? “We sing in the car,” Duchovny tells US magazine. “And she air drums. This is why we have tinted windows. A lot of people think it’s because we don’t want people to see us and follow us home, but it’s really because we’re making fools of ourselves.”

The first lesson: loose lips sink ships

Between takes for “Titanic,” Kate Winslet says she and co-star Leonardo DiCaprio would snuggle in his trailer and swap lovemaking advice - “not necessarily comparing notes, but sort of, ‘No, don’t do it like that, do it like this’ … I have to say, a lot of those sexual tips he’s given me have worked. And I know it’s vice-versa.”

She’s only in it for the menage, er, money

Neve Campbell says she took her role in the new thriller “Wild Things,” which includes a three-way love scene, as a break from her wholesome “Party of Five” TV persona. “It’s fun, because you get to learn a lot about yourself,” she tells Entertainment Weekly. “You have to find things within yourself that connect to the character.”

Is that what you call a menagerie a trois?

Finally, in a true display of eternal love, animal aficionado Brigitte Bardot has told Paris Match magazine that she hopes to be buried in her garden with her dogs around her.
