TINSELTOWN SPYWITNESS.Byline: Elizabeth Snead SERIOUS KIDDING: Forget ``South Park.'' Comedy Central has an equally raunchy raun·chy adj. raun·chi·er, raun·chi·est Slang 1. a. Obscene, lewd, or vulgar: "[He] new cartoon called ``Kid Notorious,'' an animated look at the life of infamous Hollywood producer Robert Evans (``The Kid Stays in the Picture''). Not surprisingly, the show airs Wednesday nights, right after the ``South Park'' potty-mouthed pubescents. The Tuesday night premiere of ``Kid Notorious'' at the Mann Chinese Theatre in Hollywood prepped people for the outrageously explicit series. One episode features French President Jacques Chirac trying to beat Evans in a poker game, saying ``I want to spoon you.'' Another has Evans staging a hip-hop Broadway version of ``The Godfather'' that threatens to upstage Sharon Stone's ``Vagina Monologues.'' Just like ``South Park,'' scads of stars will have ``cameos.'' The two episodes shown featured Stone, Slash, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, North Korean dictator Kim Jong II and screenwriter/producer Joe Eszterhas (albeit unnamed) whom Evans meets in jail. Evans, who brought Tatijana Shoan, a tall blonde, to the premiere, was asked if he needed permission to skewer stars on his show. ``No,'' he replied in his throaty throat·y adj. throat·i·er, throat·i·est Uttered or sounding as if uttered deep in the throat; guttural, hoarse, or husky. throat whisper. ``You can do anything about anybody. It's satire. Look at 'Saturday Night Live.' '' Asked if Stone might be peeved peeve tr.v. peeved, peev·ing, peeves To cause to be annoyed or resentful. See Synonyms at annoy. n. 1. A vexation; a grievance. 2. at being made to look like a delusional aging shrew shrew, common name for the small, insectivorous mammals of the family Soricidae, related to the moles. Shrews include the smallest mammals; the smallest shrews are under 2 in. (5.1 cm) long, excluding the tail, and the largest are about 6 in. (15 cm) long. perpetually pulled by plastic surgeons and jabbed with Botox injections, Evans shrugged and said, ``She was just too tasty not to do. I think it (the exposure) will help her.'' Speaking of exposure, the inside whisper is that the show's production was halted a few months ago when Evans reviewed footage and insisted his cartoon character get a ``bigger package.'' Hey, art is in the details. Paying homage to Evans at the after-bash at the Forbidden City were Russell Simmons, Paris Hilton, Christian Slater, Bill Maher and Cary Grant's shapely shape·ly adj. shape·li·er, shape·li·est 1.

Who says you can't get good help these days? FERGIE'S WORDS: Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York Duchess of York is a title held by the wife of the Duke of York since the first Duke of York in 1384. The title is gained with matrimony alone and is forfeited on divorce. , came armed with baskets of sweets for the crowd of children gathered at Storyopolis on Robertson Boulevard in West Hollywood to hear her read from ``Little Red,'' her delightful latest children's book. ``Little Red'' was originally designed as the logo for the charities she founded 10 years ago, Chances for Children and Children in Crisis. She designed the ``Little Red'' doll to raise money for the medical care needed for PJ, the baby who suffered burns in the Oklahoma City bombing See Terrorism "The Oklahoma City Bombing" (Sidebar); Venue "Venue and the Oklahoma City Bombing Case" (Sidebar). and was photographed being carried out of the ruins by a fireman. ``All the money Little Red has made has gone for PJ. He just had his tracheotomy tracheotomy (trākēŏt`əmē), surgical incision into the trachea, or windpipe. The operation is performed when the windpipe has become blocked, e.g., by the presence of some foreign object or by swelling of the larynx.

The eerie coincidence is that the original Little Red doll, which sat on the Duchess' desk in her World Trade Center offices on the 101st floor, was also carried out of the rubble by a fireman days after the Sept. 11 disaster. ``She survived, the very doll who was made to stand for the rights of children,'' Fergie said, shaking her head. On the recent reports of a letter (in the new book by Princess Diana's former butler) purported to have been written by Diana and expressing her fears of a plot to kill her in a car accident, Fergie was thoughtful and circumspect. ``I think that when you are a public figure, you have to worry about security. But I would be wrong to make a comment at this moment about the letter because it's only just come out and I don't know enough about it. It's only been in the tabloids, you see. So I need to be quite careful. But I will agree that everyone who lives in the public eye gets frightened.
