Daylight Saving Time ends Sunday morning... like you didn't know.
The folks at Knopf publishing have gotten ahold of a recently discovered memoir by movie star PAUL NEWMAN, and will publish it next year. In the memoir, written in the 1980s, Paul reportedly talks about fame, marriage and aging gracefully, along with his views on acting, directing, his 50-year marriage to actress JOANNE WOODWARD, racing, politics and stardom. Paul died of lung cancer in 2008 at the age of 83.
The NY Post interviewed NATALIE WOOD's sister, LANA WOOD, who said she believes her husband, ROBERT WAGNER, killed her. “I don’t believe it was premeditated,” Lana, 75, told the paper. “But that doesn’t mean I don’t think he did it: Of course he did!” They both were aboard a yacht with CHRISTOPHER WALKEN, and had dinner and drank multiple cocktails. The next morning, Natalie's body was found floating in the water in a nightgown, socks and a down jacket. The Post has more.
Yesterday we told you about the submarine USS Connecticut hitting an underwater mountain, fortunately with everybody surviving the collision. But the ship's commander, executive officer and senior enlisted sailor have reportedly been fired by the Navy due to a “loss of confidence.” The sub is still in Guam where its damage is being assessed.
Rue Brittainia Dep't: The London Times sez if you were to purchase PRINCE CHARLES' former country home, you should be prepared for a drop-in by a member or two of the royal family. The $6.7 million six-bedroom country estate sits on 9.22 acres in Dartmoor National Park, and when the current owner bought it from Prince Charles around 27 years ago, the deed came with a clause that allows the heir to the throne "to retain the right to fish on the property's river bank as long as 24 hour notice is given." That might be a little bit of a surprise...
Wedding: Gotta love that KRISTEN STEWART sez she wants Food Network chef GUY FIERI to officiate her wedding. She's getting married to DYLAN MEYER, and Fieri has already told the two girls he's 'all in' to officiate. It's nothing new for Fieri --in 2015 the "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" host married over 100 gay couples at the annual South Beach Wine & Food Festival that year in honor of his late sister, who was gay.
Food news: Starbucks has a new holiday drink --the Iced Sugar Cookie Almond Milk Latte reportedly inspired by the sugar cookie which is everywhere during the winter holidays. Calories: for the grande iced version: 150.
