Sideshow: Jack Nicholson, sex legend

Three-time Oscar winner and one-man extreme-sports tournament Jack Nicholson has squired many a beauty around the globe, including Anjelica Huston, Janice Dickinson, Rachel Ward, and Lara Flynn Boyle. But don't go calling the 75-year-old master-thesp a Don Juan.

Three-time Oscar winner and one-man extreme-sports tournament Jack Nicholson has squired many a beauty around the globe, including Anjelica Huston, Janice Dickinson, Rachel Ward, and Lara Flynn Boyle. But don't go calling the 75-year-old master-thesp a Don Juan.

"I am an extreme person," the Carnal Knowledge star tells Britain's The Sun. "If someone says, 'Jack, you are a womanizer,' I don't deny it. But the life of a gigolo always ends badly." (Don't I know it!!!). Adds Jack, "That is one of the reasons I feel uncomfortable about all that 'sex legend' stuff."

Seems the years have caught up with the man: "I no longer have the energy to both work and fool around. So the last few movies I've done, I have hardly left the hotel at nights."

Elektra and Cowell? Who knew?

Carmen Elektra continues to dance around persistent rumors that she and Simon "Darth" Cowell are lovers.

"Maybe," she tells Access Hollywood when asked if she and the X Factor mogul have kissed. She repeated the equivocation when asked, rather indelicately, if she and Si shared any "horizontal time." Is she being coy, or was the occasion too unmemorable to recall?

The former Baywatch eye-candy does admit she admires Cowell: "He's so cute. He's adorable, he's actually a sweetheart. I really like him, I think he's very cool."

Kirstie Alley's busy heart

Kirstie Alley, 61, is purging herself of a few romance secrets in a P.R. blitz for her new memoir, The Art of Men, which came out Tuesday.

First, the Cheers star admits that her Look Who's Talking costar John Travolta was the love of her life.

"Believe me, it took everything that I had, inside, outside, whatever, to not run off and marry John," Alley tells Barbara Walters in a chat set to air Wednesday on Good Morning America. Trouble is, at the time Alley was married to second hub Parker Stevenson.

She was still wed to Stevenson when she fell for yet another man in the mid-1980s, her North and South costar, Patrick Swayze, who was married to Lisa Niemi.

Their relationship was intense, but nonsexual, insists Alley. "Both of us were married," she tells Entertainment Tonight. "We did not have an affair."
