79-year-old AL PACINO recently broke up with his 43-year-old girlfriend. Well, actually, SHE broke up with HIM. Her name is Meital Dohan, and she’s an actress from Israel. She says their 36-year age gap just became too much for her. “It’s hard to be with a man so old, even Al Pacino. The age gap is difficult, yes. I tried to deny it, but now he is already an elderly man, to be honest. So even with all my love, it didn’t last.” Al’s not just old, by the way . . . he’s also CHEAP. She says, “He only bought me flowers. How can I say politely that he didn’t like to spend money?” And yet, after throwing him under the bus, she adds that it was an “honor” to be a part of his legacy, and she hopes they remain good friends.

I also think you’ll drink yourself to death if you go through what you just went through again.'”
LARK VOORHIES is on “The Dr. Oz Show” today, and in a preview released online, she admits that she’s upset she wasn’t asked to be a part of the “Saved By the Bell” revival. “I have to admit I did feel a bit slighted and hurt when I was not invited to be part of the ‘Saved by the Bell’ reunion, as well as other cast members events -I also realized that having [bipolar] disorder may have played a major part in that factual decision. With that in mind, I am truly thankful for having had the chance to work on a show that has been so successful.” Dustin Diamond, a.k.a.
