Ashton Kutcher taking a break from coaching high school football, at the Geisha House in Hollywood. The music mogul had just undergone rotator cuff surgery, sources tell us, and was on a “very strict diet.” In fact, Diddy ordered chicken yakitori and rock shrimp tempura, two house specialties, but ate very little of both dishes.
Speaking of geishas, Avril Lavigne was dressed like one for an early Halloween celebration at Key Club in West Hollywood, where she belted out Joan Jett’s “Bad Reputation” during a special performance. The punky singer sang with a band that included her hubby Deryck Whibley, who wore a nurse’s costume and Joker-like face paint. Lavigne was introduced as “Mrs. Whibley” and “sounded amazing” during her turn on the mic, a source says. When they weren’t performing, the singer and her rocker husband shared a table at the nightspot with Mischa Barton, who was without a costume, though she did wear a headband for her night out.
