One almost played Linda Lovelace.

That great tugboat of glamour, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, got gussied up as Miss Havisham on a winter’s outing to mark the 200th birthday of Charles Dickens on Tuesday.
Cam stopped by Westminster Abbey’s Poets’ Corner, where she scared the dickens out of the faithful and unfaithful alike.
Camilla, also married to a Charles, said, “How much Chuck would have loved to chuck his other duties, if he could, to be here for this Chuck.”

in bad hair, duchess of alba, old people, plastic surgery, sorry -- had toCarole Cook, 84, appeared last night at the Paley Center’s screening of the Carol Channing film, “Larger Than Life.” Miss Cook is the star of such kitsch classics as “The Incredible Mr. Limpet” and “Palm Springs Weekend.” She is neither surprised nor startled. She is merely fabulous. Hair by Technicolor. Makeup by Dupont.
“West Side Story” remnant George Chakiris, 77, attempted some type of facial expression. Greek chic! This is a very convincing weave. I’m not sure if he’s about to smile or weep.
Michael Learned, 72, the mom on “The Waltons,” looked relaxed and alert, perhaps shocked, I’m not sure. Goodnight, John Boy.
Conservative Republican Connie Stevens, 73, with a spectacular lipliner fail, with some type of hair that looks like it’s been infiltrated by makeup left on a pillow. Those are not maggots, that’s part of her dress.
The effervescent Ruta Lee, star of 1954′s “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers,” is giving Lithuanian glamour, and a makeup applied with more force than a “Drag Race” contestant. Don’t you just want to kiss her? She always looks like she’s chewing gum. Labas rytas!
