LBN-OVERHEARD:
***His 1964 track 'The Times They are a-Changin' became the anthem for his generation, symbolizing the era-defining social struggle against the establishment.
Now Bob Dylan - who could justifiably claim to be the architect of Barack Obama's 'change' catchphrase - has backed the Illinois senator to do for modern America what the generation before did in the 1960s.
In an exclusive interview with The Times, published today, Dylan gives a ringing endorsement to Mr. Obama, the first ever black presidential candidate, claiming he is "redefining the nature of politics from the ground up".
***Ed McMahon's years of boozing are partly to blame for his going broke.
Johnny Carson's famed sidekick - who once had real-estate holdings of more than $200 million - is in danger of losing his Beverly Hills home in a foreclosure.
"You drink and you don't pay attention to your business affairs," his manager, Johnny Podell, said.
"He wasn't paying attention and probably got some bad advice.
" McMahon, 85, who also suffered through two expensive divorces, hasn't touched a drop in more than 10 years, and needs a break, said Podell.
"I'm hoping America will rally around him and somebody will have a great idea to make him a spokesman."
***What's it like being married to Gwen Stefani?
Rocker Gavin Rossdale says of his wife's notorious fashion sense:
"It's like marrying three different people a week, because you never know who's going to come out of the bathroom.
" But Rossdale doesn't get too wrapped up in the outrageous looks Stefani's fans adore her for - "Her five- minute look is my favorite.
She looks perfect unmade-up."
***Jane Fonda is just not into guys these days.
"I want someone who is not only a great lover, but who is also an old soul...
That is mighty hard to find," the thrice-divorced Oscar winner told writer Gregory Speck at Planned Parenthood's Prince George Ballroom bash the other night.
"These younger guys are so shallow they don't know what I am talking about most of the time."
And older men?
"[They] seem to think they are riding the crest when they decide to cash in and take it easy once they have hooked up with me, which becomes a burden and a bore."
