Freddie Prinze Jr. says only Sarah sees his; Kate Winslet likens her own to broccoli. Plus: Mariah speaks!
Aug 24, 2001 | What's wrong with Freddie Prinze Jr.'s butt?
Nothing you'll ever be aware of. The actor made damn sure it wasn't his booty audiences got a glimpse of in "Summer Catch," the just-opened flick in which he stars with Jessica Biel and Matthew Lillard.
According to the Internet Movie Database, Prinze was initially a go to bare his backside in the film, but after fiancie Sarah Michelle Gellar asked him to keep it under wraps, he requested a "bottom double" instead.
"Nobody is ever going to see my ass besides Sarah," he says.
No ifs, ands or ... (ahem) you know.

Maybe Freddie can give her a referral
"I looked like the back end of a bus ... My bottom looked like purple, sprouting broccoli. Other body parts resembled squashes."
-- Kate Winslet painting all too vivid an image of the toll pregnancy and childbirth took on her body, in InStyle magazine.

Down the Hatch
Call it justice. But it looks like Richard Hatch might be a reality-TV loser after all.
After his arrest this week over a skerfuffle with an ex-boyfriend who was also, apparently, Hatch's adopted son's nanny, the evil naked "Survivor" has been dumped from the lineup of "Blind Date," the matchmaking reality TV show on which he was to be the first gay contestant.
"In light of the recent charges against Richard Hatch, the producers of 'Blind Date' have decided to delay Mr. Hatch's appearance until the pending allegations are resolved," show officials explained this week, after news of Hatch's arrest broke.
Hatch, meanwhile, says the charges of domestic violence lodged against him are all a big misunderstanding.
"All I did was push him away to keep him out of my home -- and I was arrested," Hatch insisted on the Boston morning radio show he hosts. "I actually feel sorry for the guy. He is truly, truly, truly psychologically damaged."
Former beau Glenn Boyanowski, meanwhile, has told the Providence Journal that "my version of the story is different than his."
But of course we all know that nice Richard would never, ever lie ...

Jed, move away from there!
"Well, when you're sitting on the porch and a pretty girl walks by and your pacemaker starts to open the garage door -- well, that's how you feel."
-- Buddy Ebsen (aka Jed Clampett of "The Beverly Hillbillies") on what it feels like to be 93, in USA Today.
