DEAR STACY: Please give some background on this hot-looking actor Alex Pettyfer, who is starring with Vanessa Hudgens in the movie "Beastly." Age? Where from? — Michelle W., Brooklyn, N.Y.

DEAR MICHELLE: The 20-year-old son of British actor Richard Pettyfer ("Bleak House") and model-turned-TV personality Lee Ireland, Alex hails from Hertfordshire, England. Handsome Pettyfer landed his first commercial at age 6. When he was 7, the story goes that he was noticed by legendary designer Ralph Lauren while in a Manhattan toy store — and after that, started modeling for Gap and other companies. As an adult, he's done several Burberry ads. The product of boarding schools, Pettyfer dove into acting professionally as the title star of the U.K. series "Tom Brown's School Days." The films "Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker," "Eragon" and "Wild Child" followed. Pettyfer, the ex-beau of Emma Roberts, will reportedly follow up the July 30-opening "Beastly" with the Michael Bay-Steven Spielberg big-screen production, "I Am Number Four" for release next year.

DEAR STACY: I've seen Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka and sons Donald Jr. and Eric on "Celebrity Apprentice." Doesn't he have another child? What is he/she doing? — Mary J., Canton, Ohio

DEAR MARY: In addition to his three grown children by first wife Ivana Trump, he has 16-year-old daughter Tiffany with second wife Marla Maples, and 2-year-old son Barron William with current mate Melania Knauss.

Trump's son Donald Jr. and his wife have a daughter and son, making him a two-time grandfather as well. Besides being a student, Tiffany has a role in an independent film that's reportedly in pre-production called "Section B" with a cast including former "Celebrity Apprentice" competitor Cyndi Lauper.

DEAR STACY: Is "Sons of Anarchy" going to return, and if so, when? Great show. — Ken A., Turlock, Calif.

DEAR KEN: Those fabulous biker boys return to the FX lineup in September.

DEAR STACY: The 2011 Mustang commercial uses a classic rock tune I can't quite identify, and it's driving me crazy. The lyrics contain the words "you gotta go, you gotta go." — W.C., Cedar Rapids, Iowa

DEAR W.C.: It may sound like a classic to you, but the spot features the song "Light of the Morning" from the 2009 album "Baby Darling Doll Face Honey" by British indie rock group Band of Skulls. It's available for downloading on Amazon.com and elsewhere.

DEAR STACY: What was the connection between Nicollette Sheridan and Telly Savalas? — Laurie D., San Antonio

DEAR LAURIE: Savalas, who died of prostate cancer in 1994, had a son, Nick, with Nicollette's mother, Sally Sheridan. Therefore, Savalas' son is Nicollette's half-brother. The original "Kojak" star was also the godfather of Jennifer Aniston.

Alex Pettyfer wasn't in Eragon. Your researcher misread the Wikipedia page.
