It's been 25 years since she left 70s/80s group Shalamar -- but according to Jody Watley, who referred to herself in the third person yesterday in DC, "it's 2009, not 1984" and she's definitely not hankering for a reunion.

Barbara Walters -- Repeat Offender

No, you're not seeing double -- Barbara Walters committed one of the biggest sins of fashion: Wearing the same outfit in public twice ... in the same week!

Barbara Walters
Babwa wore this frilly black ensemble to the Time's 100 Most Influential People gala last Tuesday -- then again to the White House Correspondents' Dinner Saturday, matching earrings and all.

Them fancy dresses is expensive, maybe the recession is to blame?

We asked the Republican-turned-Democrat which movie character he most resembles -- hint ... crawls up Empire State Building and has mad crush on Fay Wray.

We would have gone with a different mammal -- Flipper.

Favreau: I'm Not Putting Words in Obama's Mouth

Everybody thinks Jon Favreau is writing all of Barack Obama's speeches -- and they're right.

Click to view!
Turns out there are two famous Jon Favreaus -- one is 42 and writes for Vince Vaughn ... the other is 27 and writes for Barack Obama ... as his official Director of Speechwriting. Dude is even credited with coming up with the "Yes We Can" slogan. Not too shabby...

Not only have the two Jon's met, but yesterday at LAX "Hollywood Favreau" claimed the other one was a "nice kid."

So the real question...
