Nothing is sacred in Hollywood and although those who chose to live in Silver Lake find some refuge from the hounding paps and tabloid headlines, no where is entirely safe from it's resident gossip agents (known only as 'X' & 'Y'). With a Bond-like stealth and keen eye for the juicy, these two manage to seemingly live amongst the hip and elite that call Silver Lake home and gain access to the deepest, darkest secrets that lie sealed behind bohemian doors. For those who are new to these parts, we suggest caution - it's easy to become paranoid when you've got something hide. Let's be real though, the chances that X and Y are your neighbor or (worse) that new friend you met at the market, or (oh god) that hottie you brought home from the club last night, is highly unlikely...right? On second thought.....maybe they ARE living amongst you *cue Twilight Zone music* Affiliated solely with Silver Lake Celebs.

Dear Betty, How great of a kisser is Bradley Cooper?

I wouldn’t kick him out for eating crackers in bed, that’s for sure!

Special thank to Mrs. Copper-to-be for sharing with old lady.

Looks like Idina is hooking up with JMo.

Let's hope we have a love triangle in the making.

Not just the hero you need, Silver Lake, but the hero you deserve! With 93 years of experience (and a whopping 75 of those in Hollywood) who better to guide you in love, life and work (and boy, some of you could use the help!). So if you’re looking for a little advice, just pop us an ask (starting with ‘Dear Betty’ so we know what its for) and she’ll swoop in (or, you know, slowly shuffle) to save the day!

Dear Betty, I still love my ex and I left someone for her but I don't know what to do. She seems awkward... Help!

Oh dear, that’s quite the pickle.

Go for it! Tell her how your feel - she be feeling the same but is unsure how you feel, which might explain the awkwardness. On the other hand, she may be trying to avoid old feelings. You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink. It’ll never drink if it’s stuck in the barn with hay though!! Saddle up, cowboy!

Confession: I am ready to take the next big step with him but I am not sure if he is yet.

Only one way to find out isn’t there? So down some liquid courage and take the plunge!

Your penance is one hell of a hangover and waking up not knowing where you are.

I have a not so secret-secret in that I'm like super attractive (that's not the secret part, cause obvs) and in love with one of my best friends. Mmm, that might not be very secret either at this point. Ok the real scoop is that I want to do something awful to her boyfriend. And on a completely unrelated note, does anyone know where I can get a glue stick that looks /exactly/ lip chap stick? No reason.

Might want to be careful. If you’re as attractive as you claim (and I have the feeling you are), you won’t fend too well in prison.

On an unrelated note. DM me, I may have some ideas. Oh, and your penance is three full days without a mirror.

Confession: I love him but I don't think I'm IN love with him anymore.

Time to let him go then.

Your penance is weeks of moping cured only by a quart (or three) of Ben & Jerry’s finest.

#slc confessions

I have a secret, I do not know how to tell my love that I am pregnant without freaking him out.

Might want to get on that deary, it’s gonna be hard to hide soon enough!!

Your penance is nine months of crazy food cravings and insufferable heartburn!

#slc confessions

It's Sunday and since we know most of you didn't make it to Church this morning, we're open for Confessions!! Tell us what's on your mind, we promise we won't tell! (Remember to prefix it with 'Confession:' so we know what it is!).

Rumor has it Jennifer Lawrence has a thing for James Franco.

If this is true Bradley Coop better watch his back, and the Doritos.

Am I the only one noticing that Amber seems to be spending a hell of a lot more time with this Franco character then she is with Colin?

Well she was sorta in a movie with him and Rogen ya know. Besides who the hell doesn't want to cosy up to that adorable bastard named James Franco? Maybe Camber just isn't meant to be? Ambco anyone?

Dear Betty I am still hurt by my ex for leaving me for someone else what should I do?

Get over it. Take up a hobby.

Even if they realize the error of their ways and come groveling back to you, that isn't going to last if you're holding on to old hurts, so hike up those panties and get back in the saddle. ~ Betty.

Dear Betty, I love you. Your advice helps so much and is so funny. You are such an inspiration and I love reading your stuff. Love, your biggest fan. XX

Oh stop, you're just saying that because it's true!

Dear Betty: We should get drunk.

Dear Betty: What do you do when heart is telling you one thing, but your head is screaming at you do another. I'm just so confused right now.

Poor thing. I suggest wine - and lots of it. Either the voice in your head will become so slurred you won't be able to understand it and you'll have no choice but to follow your heart. Or your heart will give out. Either way, problem solved.

Dear Betty, what do you do when seeing your ex after a reasonable amount time and she thinks we can get back together but I am in love with someone else?

Keep ‘em both.

Always wise to have a back-up plan.

Dear Betty, What do you do when you find yourself surrounded by incompetent fools?

Get a dog.

At least you know what to expect - no one’s surprised when they shit on your lawn or hump your leg.
