Ashton Kutcher, Demi Moore
Spotted at Services
After stepping out separately earlier in the week,
Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore came together for
religious services Friday night in Los Angeles.
Although the couple – who have recently been plagued
with rumors about the state of their marriage – sat on
opposite sides of the aisle as is custom at the Kabbalah
Centre, Kutcher greeted his wife with a hug
post-services.
Together, Kutcher, 33, and Moore, 48, spoke with a
number of people before walking out with their arms
wrapped around the other's waists. The Two and a Half
Men star was spotted affectionately leaning down to talk
to the actress, who was quiet and appeared tired.
Neither of the pair's reps have responded for comment
about the status of their relationship.

Kristen Stewart Accidentally
(And Finally!) Confirms She's Dating Robert Pattinson
It's not exactly a secret that Kristen Stewart and
Robert Pattinson are an item, but the two have made it a
point to never discuss their relationship publicly --
until now.
During her photo shoot for British GQ's November issue,
the 21-year-old said she hopes to explore more of the UK
while filming Snow White and The Huntsman, "because my
boyfriend is English."
When the writer asked Stewart about her accidental
admission during their interview the next day, the
actress got uncomfortable. "I never would have said that
if I knew you were interviewing me," she said coyly.
Not that Stewart thinks she's fooling anyone by keeping
her romance with Pattinson, 25, on the DL. "So much of
my life is so easily Googled," she laughed. "I mean,
it's like, 'Come on guys, it's so obvious!'"
Because Twilight fans are so passionate about the
franchise, Stewart knew that coming clean about their
relationship would be met with skepticism.
"I don't think you realize what a big deal it is for
people. Well, it is a big deal. They would be 'Oh. My.
God.' There would also be still a 50/50 split," the
actress says. "Some people would still be, 'See, told
you they're not together.'"
Just don't expect Stewart to gush about Pattinson much
more in the future.
"I'm selfish. I'm like, 'That's mine!' And I like to
keep whatever is mine remaining that way," she explains.
"It's a funny little game to play and it's a slippery
slope. I always say to myself I'm never going to give
anything away because there's never any point or benefit
for me."

Martha Stewart's Daughter Rips
Into Her Mom – and Childhood – in Tell-All Book
Her daughter Alexis, 46, levies some harsh claims in her
new book, Whateverland: Learning to Live Here,
co-authored with Jennifer Koppelman Hutt.
"Martha does everything better! You can't win," Alexis
Stewart writes of her 70-year-old mom, according to an
excerpt obtained by U.K.'s Daily Mail. "If I didn't do
something perfectly, I had to do it again. … I grew up
with a glue gun pointed at my head."
As for holidays, Alexis – who recently welcomed a
daughter of her own, Jude – writes that special moments
like Halloween and Christmas held little excitement for
her mother.
"Martha was not interested in being kid friendly,"
Alexis writes. "She used to make me wrap my own
presents. She would hand me things right before
Christmas and say, 'Now wrap these but don't look
inside.' "
On Halloween: "There were no costumes. There was no
anything. We turned off all the lights and pretended we
weren’t home," she recalls in the book.
Stewart also alleges in the book that Martha has a habit
of urinating with the bathroom door open; that she
neglected to keep any prepared foods in the house when
Alexis was young; that her mother is a hoarder who had
"a very hands-off approach to child rearing;" and that
Martha refused to buy her a bra when she hit puberty.
But in spite of the revelations – and rancor – there
seem to be no hard feelings between the two these days.
In fact, Alexis dedicated the book to her mother, who
also offered her own brand of support.
"She's her own person," Martha writes in the book of her
daughter. "She makes up her own mind. I sometimes try to
offer advice, but if it's not taken, so be it. She
really did pay attention. She really does know how to do
everything. And still she chooses not to follow in my
footsteps."

Jennifer Lopez Gets a Lap Dance
in Las Vegas
Jennifer Lopez let loose in Las Vegas on Saturday night,
taking her own advice from her hit single "On the Floor"
to "dance the night away."
Following her performance at the iHeartRadio music
festival, Lopez headed to Pure Nightclub with an
entourage of more than a dozen people, including her
backup dancers. Dressed in a short cream dress with pink
stripes, Lopez hung out in the club's elevated VIP area,
sipping Dom Perignon Rose as her music videos played on
two oversized screens at each end of the club.
By all accounts, Lopez has bounced back from her split
with husband Marc Anthony and is into having a good
time. About an hour after arriving at Pure, "one of her
dancers took his shirt and gave her a lap dance," a
source tells PEOPLE. "She was laughing and loving it."
Surrounded by her crew and security guards, Lopez was at
times barely visible at her VIP table but came to the
front when DJ Irie played "On the Floor." She sang along
to her song and shook hands with fans clamoring for a
glimpse of the returning American Idol judge.
Later, Lopez danced on the couch in her private area
when the deejay played songs by Rihanna and the Black
Eyes Peas before leaving the club at 3:30 a.m.

Jennifer Garner: 'It Would Be
So Weird to Have a Boy'
Raised with two sisters, Jennifer Garner would love for
her two daughters to have the same experience.
"Three girls is a great way to grow up," the pregnant
actress, 39, says during an interview on the Ellen
DeGeneres Show scheduled to air Tuesday. "I'm one of
three girls and my little sister is awesome."
Even though Garner says, "It would be so weird to have a
boy," she also thinks the experience would be "cool and
different."
But Garner also takes hubby Ben Affleck, 39, into
consideration, acknowledging that it would be "fun" for
him to have a boy because "he likes baseball and all
that stuff."
As for the duo's daughters – Violet, 5˝, and Seraphina,
2˝, "They don't really care about the gender as long as
we name it what they want it to be named."
And if the girls have it their way, they could end up
with a sibling named "Ralphie, Frankie, Minnie Mouse,
Daisy Duck, or Rosemarie."
"Daisy Duck Affleck," Garner says with a laugh. "I can
see us going that way."

Glee’s Jane Lynch hosted the 63rd Primetime Emmy Awards
last night, her show didn’t take home one coveted award!

total including Outstanding Comedy Series! In fact,
after one commercial break Jane welcomed back the
audience by saying, “Welcome to the Modern Family
Awards.” Check out more highlights and winners after the
jump!
Early in the evening, Julie Bowen from Modern Family won
her very first Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress
and soon after her TV hubby Ty Burrell won for
Supporting Actor, as noted by E! Online. Julie’s win
prompted her to exclaim at the podium, ”Are you kidding
me? I don’t know what I’m going to talk about in therapy
next week now. I won something!”
Ty weaved his speech with chuckles and sentiment, saying
he wished that his late father would have been alive to
see the win considering he took up acting later in life.
Then he pondered his dad would have asked, ”But why the
makeup?”
As for other highlights, including the classic moment
when contestants — er, nominees — for the Outstanding
Actress, Comedy Series were announced, one by one they
all got on stage and started to hold hands, beauty
pageant-style. After Melissa McCarthy was crowned the

Brad Pitt Explains Being a
Satisfied Man
Brad Pitt may appear to be on top of the world, but he
insists that happiness is "overrated."
"I put much more emphasis on being a satisfied man," the
actor, 47, tells Parade magazine in a revealing
interview that will be published Sunday. "I'm satisfied
with making true choices and finding the woman I love,
Angie, and building a family that I love so much."
Pitt describes his partner, Angelina Jolie, as "such a
great mom," and says starting a family with her was "one
of the greatest, smartest things I ever did."
"A family is a risky venture, because the greater the
love, the greater the loss," he adds. "That's the
trade-off."
Things weren't always so blissful, though. In the early
days of his fame, Pitt struggled to deal with all of the
attention he was getting, he tells Parade.
"I spent the '90s trying to hide out, trying to duck the
full celebrity cacophony," he admits. "I started to get
sick of myself sitting on a couch, holding a joint,
hiding out. It started feeling pathetic. It became very
clear to me that I was intent on trying to find a movie
about an interesting life, but I wasn't living an
interesting life myself."
In addition, the actor says, his marriage to Jennifer
Aniston wasn't the golden love story it appeared to be.
"I think that my marriage had something to do with it,"
he said. "Trying to pretend the marriage was something
that it wasn't."
Now, as tabloids clamor over the fact that Pitt and
Jolie have yet to officially tie the knot, it's clear
that their relationship has given Pitt the life he was
searching for – and more. "I'm so happy to have her,"
Pitt says.

Eva Longoria 'Doesn't Know' If
She'll Remarry
While Eva Longoria's relationship with Eduardo Cruz
seems to be going strong, don't expect the actress to
walk down the aisle again.
When asked on Access Hollywood Live if she would
consider getting remarried, the actress responded, "I
don't know."
"I'm not opposed to it, I just don't really give it a
lot of thought right now," Longoria, 36, adds. "Ask a
woman after divorce if she's gonna get married, you
won't get an honest answer."
Longoria's three-year marriage to Tony Parker ended in
divorce in January 2011.
While attending Kim Kardahsian's lavish wedding, which
she called "intimate" and "sweet," might not have made
Longoria want to rush to the altar, she does agree with
the bride's brief engagement.
"I never believe in long engagements," the Desperate
Housewives star says. "People think engagement is
another step. It's not another step. You're single and
then you're married. The engagement is the planning
part."
"So many guys get engaged to buy time," she notes. "If
I'm the bride I'm like, oh no, all right, let's get
going."

Hudgens Get Tattooed Together

girlfriend.

week in Manhattan. The High School Musical costars made
a late-night visit to East Side Ink and got new body art
by the well-known tattoo artist "Bang Bang."

New York Fashion Week when they made the pitstop.
Tisdale's foot tattoo reads, "jamais seule," French for
"never alone," while her pal got the symbol for "Om" on
the back of her hands.
"We miss u!!!!" Tisdale Tweeted to Hudgens's sister. "Ur
sister and I r crazy, I'm sure u heard lol."
Hudgens attended to some other business while in the Big
Apple as well – refuting the rumors that she's cozying
up to Hunger Games star Josh Hutcherson.
"I'm single!" she told PEOPLE emphatically at the
Popchips Playland event for "Fashion's Night Out"
Thursday. These days, she's spending her free time
taking kickboxing and yoga classes (hence the Om?) and
hanging with girlfriends.

Edison, where the ladies dress up in roaring 20s wear.
"We dress the part, have dinner and get to listen to
some loud music," says the appropriately-coiffed star.
"It's fun!"

Elizabeth Hurley's Boyfriend
Shane Warne: I'm in Love!
Elizabeth Hurley's boyfriend Shane Warne is one smitten
Aussie! The former cricket star -- who's been
romantically linked to Hurley since her split from hubby
Arun Nagar in February -- is head over heels for the
model-actress, and it shows.
"Yeah, I am [in love]," he told Australia radio show
3AW. "Being in love with someone is a wonderful feeling.
I am in love with [Elizabeth]. We are going really well.
It's easy with each other. Together we make a pretty
good partnership."
"I think [being in love] probably gives off a radiant
glow too," Warne added.
In February, Hurley announced her separation, via
Twitter, from Arun Nagar, her husband of four years. At
the time, she was the subject of British tabloid stories
claiming an affair with married Warne, who has three
children with now ex-wife Simone Callahan. (Hurley had
explained that she and Nayar had already been separated
when her romance with Warne began.)
Hurley and Nagar's divorce was finalized in June. She
has one 9-year-old son, Damian, from a previous
relationship.

Angelina Jolie Dishes on
Watching Movies With Brad Pitt: I Fall Asleep
Angelina Jolie and her partner Brad Pitt are in movies
all the time, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that
Angie watches them! She dished on her bad movie habits
in the October issue of Vanity Fair.
“Brad jokes with me, because I”ll watch a movie and I’ll
be asleep in five minutes,” she says in the interview.
“I’m terrible. There’s some of my own I’ve never seen.”
She does admit that she manages to watch the ones Brad
stars in, however, adding, “Since I’ve been with him
I’ve seen all the ones we’ve gone to the premieres for.”
“I think I liked Jesse [The Assassination of Jesse James
by the Coward Robert Ford] because I knew how hard he
worked on that. It’s interesting: when you live with an
artist, it’s not the film but the process you respect. I
know he took a risk on that, fought for it, stood true
to what he believe.d He didn’t cave when people were
pressing him, and he made a beautiful film.”
But before they end up on the silver screen, the twosome
also help each other out by running potential roles past
each other.
“We read each other’s things. More now than when we were
first together. We throw each other scripts and say, ‘Is
this good, or have I lost my mind?’ ”

Why Is Victoria Beckham Wearing
Flats?
It’s a photograph we never thought we’d see: fashion
maven Victoria Beckham in flats. But it’s happened; the
star was spotted in Hollywood this week without her
signature stilettos, opting instead for a pair of plain
black flats.
Why the change? A rep for the designer had no comment,
but a source confirms to PEOPLE that Beckham must wear
flats as she recovers from a slipped disc in her back.
So will she be back in heels in time for New York
Fashion Week? Only time will tell.
“She’ll have to see how she feels,” the source tells
PEOPLE. “Heels will put added pressure on the damaged
area but it’s healing well, so it may not be an issue in
another couple weeks.”
Regardless, Beckham still looks glam, and fans are
wishing the new mom a speedy recovery. “Thank u for your
kind messages,” she said in reply on Twitter last week.
“I’m feeling much better and enjoying every precious
minute with baby Harper, I’m so in love. X VB.”

Inside Kim
Kardashian's Wedding Reception
Saturday's lavish wedding wouldn't have been complete
without a lavish reception, and newlyweds Kim Kardashian
and Kris Humphries certainly didn't disappoint.
With Old Hollywood being the theme, the party, created
by celebrity wedding planner Sharon Sacks, included
black place settings on a black and white tablecloth. In
keeping with the black-and-white theme, the narrow,
multi-tiered wedding cake, by Hansen's Cakes, was
chocolate and vanilla flavored and studded with
chocolate chips.
The couple changed clothes before entering the ballroom
– Humphries wore a black Zenga tuxedo to the reception,
while Kim donned an ivory dress designed, by Vera Wang,
who also designed her wedding gown. Next up: they danced
the night away with their 400 guests.
Singer Robin Thicke introduced the couple and sang
"Angels" for their first dance, while Earth, Wind and
Fire also performed.

Megan Fox: Why I'm Removing My
Marilyn Monroe Tattoo
Gentlemen may prefer blondes -- but Megan Fox would now
prefer to have her giant Marilyn Monroe tattoo erased
from her right forearm.
The 25-year-old star confirmed to Italian fashion
magazine Amica that she is in the process of removing
(via laser treatments) the talked-about portrait of the
Hollywood legend from her famous body.
"I'm removing it," Fox says. "She was a negative person,
she was disturbed, bipolar. I do not want to attract
this kind of negative energy in my life." (Indeed, the
notoriously troubled Monroe died in 1962 at age 36 of a
drug overdose.)
But the Transformers bombshell has plenty of other body
art staying on -- with over nine other tattoos,
including a quote in honor of her Passion Play costar
Mickey Rourke on her ribcage, a tribal tattoo on her
left wrist and another quote on her shoulder.
"Who knows, maybe I'll remove the others too, but the
laser hurts."
Fox also fesses up to removing, like so many young women
before her, a naval piercing.
"I did it when I was 16-years-old because I was a fan of
Britney Spears," she explains. "The only time I tried to
imitate someone else. But then I thought it was tacky
and so I removed it when I turned 20."

Sandra Bullock & Ryan Reynolds:
Their 'Relaxed' Dinner in Wyoming
Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds's visit to Wyoming last
weekend also included a low-key dinner with friends.
The Proposal costars – who a source has told PEOPLE are
"like brother and sister" – made their way to Rendezvous
Bistro in Jackson Hole on Sunday.
Sans Bullock's baby son Louis, who accompanied the
actress, 47, and Reynolds, 34, on the trip, the duo
joined two other guests for what a source says appeared
to be a "really informal" meal.
"They didn't seem like they were a couple," the source
says. "It was very relaxed, totally friendly. She wasn't
romantic with anyone at the table."

Kristen Stewart Becomes a
Bombshell on Gorgeous W Cover
Kristen Stewart got a stunning makeover for the
September cover of W magazine. The sometimes scruffy
Twilight Saga star, 21, sports a 60s-style bouffant
hairdo, luscious lipstick that pumps up her pout and
heavy eye makeup that emphasizes her startling blue
eyes.
In an interview with the mag, the real-life girlfriend
to Pattinson, 25, opens up about filming the last scenes
-- a wedding and a honeymoon -- in the mega franchise.
After shooting the wedding, "I was kind of whacked,"
Stewart admitted.
When she and Pattinson shot sexy honeymoon scenes in the
Virgin Islands, "I felt like I could shoot up into the
night sky and every pore of my body would shoot light,"
she gushed. "I felt lighter than I've ever felt in my
life."

Mark Wahlberg Tells Leonardo
Dicaprio Their “Careers Are Over” Because of Taylor
Lautner
Taylor Lautner is hot on the heels of A-list actors
Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Wahlberg — this, according to
Marky Mark himself!
“I am sitting at a table with a gentleman who is better
looking than you and is in better shape than me,” Mark
said to his good pal Leo yesterday the Hollywood Foreign
Press Association’s annual luncheon in Beverly Hills,
via E! News. “So, we’re both out of a job, dude. Taylor
Lautner! We’re screwed.”
“It’s over, dude,” he added to the laughter of all the
other actors in the room. “Titanic and Boogie Nights
were a long time ago. I accept it. I had a good run and
on to the next.”
And Taylor was humbled and almost embarrassed by all the
positive attention.
“I don’t even know the word to describe being here,”
Taylor told E!. “It’s so odd. It’s such an honor. I’m up
on the stage and talking in front of people like that?
The people that I looked up to my entire life? Hearing
words like that from Mark and everybody it’s just really
surreal.”
The Twilight heartthrob also made quite the impression
on Glee star Lea Michele.
She introduced Taylor to the stage by saying, “I promise
to control myself, here is Taylor Lautner!”
After hugging Lea, Taylor spoke on stage about receiving
a grant for and on behalf of the Sundance Film Festival
and said, “I am so honored to be here today to accept
this very generous grant!”

Okmagazine: Kim Kardashian’s
Sexy Leather Gift From Best Friend LaLa Anthony!
Kim Kardashian’s wedding to Kris Humphries just got a
whole lot sexier thanks to her best friend LaLa Anthony.
“I got her some leather underwear from Agent
Provocateur,” LaLa tells OK!. “I got her some cool stuff
– it was a Bachelorette party!”
The bachelorette party last weekend was a two-day affair
in Las Vegas that began at the Palazzo pool and carried
on to TAO nightclub.
“Oh my god, it was so fun – I really think I’m still
recovering from that night,” LaLa told OK! at the Art
for Life Benefit sponsored by Bombay Saphire at Russell
Simmon’s East Hampton Estate on Saturday. “We had a
great time!”
It was at the bachelorette party that LaLa gave her best
friend the sexy gift.
“It was just for fun,” she insists. “It was a joke. It
was fun, we had a good time.”
LaLa, who married Knicks star Carmelo Anthony in 2010,
an event that was filmed for VH1’s LaLa’s Full Court
Wedding, knows what it’s like to have a high-profile
wedding filmed for a reality show.
“I’m just supporting her and whatever she needs from me,
I’m here,” said LaLa of Kim’s Aug. 20 nuptials in
Montecito, Calif.
Although LaLa says Kim didn’t choose her as a
bridesmaid, she has no hard feelings with the decision.
“It doesn’t matter,” she explains. “At my wedding I
didn’t have any bridesmaids at all. It was just my maid
of honor. It doesn’t matter. I just want to be there for
her.”

Okmagazine: Robert Pattinson
Reveals He Bit a Fan’s Baby… Kristen Stewart Reacts!
Robert Pattinson has heard some pretty strange requests
from fans, but this may be the most bizarre. While
promoting Breaking Dawn with Kristen Stewart at
Comic-Con in San Diego, Rob shared that way back when,
during the filming of Twilight, an onlooker at the set
asked for a photo of Rob biting her baby — and there’s
photographic evidence!
We all know Twi-hards are some of the most devoted fans
out there, but this request is beyond crazy.
Rob explained that one day during Twilight filming, a
female fan handed an assistant director her 3-month-old
baby. The director brought the baby to Rob, who first
thought the woman wanted him to sign his autograph on
her baby.
But he was wrong — she wanted a snapshot of R-Pattz
biting her baby!
“I didn’t really understand the reality of the situation
at that point,” Rob explained. “But there is a picture
of me somewhere on the Internet biting this baby.”
“You bit the baby?” his leading lady Kristen Stewart,
asked in bewilderment.
“Yeah,” he replied.
“That’s so weird,” Kristen muttered under her breadth,
folding her arms across her body (her reaction in the
clip below is priceless).
Rob then revealed that he didn’t actually bite the baby
— for all those who were concerned.
“It’s kind of a funny picture,” Rob remembered. “The
baby is so young the entire head fit into my mouth.”
“I’m sure that’s not true!” Kristen laughed.

Scarlett Johansson Declines
Marine Ball Invite – Sends Champagne
These days, inviting a celebrity to the Marine Corps
Ball has practically become as de riguer as combat boots
and fatigues.
First, Mila Kunis accepted one Marine's invite to the
ball. Next, Justin Timberlake said yes to another, and
then a slew of other stars (Betty White among them!)
have been asked to go, as well.
The latest invitee, Scarlett Johansson, had to decline a
video invitation from Sgt. Dustin L. Williams for the
Nov. 10 ball, but she's sending a bubbly replacement to
accompany him to the fete.
"Sgt. Williams, unfortunately due to prior commitments I
will not be able to attend the Ball with you this year
but I am sending you a case of Moët and Chandon with
gratitude," the actress, 26, wrote in a statement to
Zap2it.
"I feel incredibly honored," she continued. "Not only
does Sgt. Williams deserve recognition for his bravery,
selflessness and dedication to the United States and its
people, but also displays a cheeky talent for film
making."
"In my absence, I raise a glass to you and all the men
and women of the U.S. Marine Corps, past and present, in
thanks for your continued commitment to preserving the
safety of our nation. – Scarlett"

‘Snow White and the Huntsman’
Star Charlize Theron on Working with Kristen Stewart:
“I’m Ready For You..."
Although the movie has yet to being filming, Snow White
and the Huntsman starlets Charlize Theron and Kristen
Stewart already seem to have a good dynamic for their
future on-screen scenes as the actresses got pumped
about their roles at a Comic-Con panel on Saturday.
Playing into her character as the Queen, the 35-year-old
joked about starting to work with co-star Kristen, “I’m
ready for you B****, let’s go!”
Although Charlize has an Academy Award under her belt,
she still thinks that acting alongside the 21-year-old
Twilight star may be a challenge.
“We’ve only met each other very briefly, but just in
that small amount of time I can tell you that she’s
going to give me a run for my money,” Charlize explained
to the panel at the San Diego Convention Center.
Asides from being excited to work with the talented
Charlize, Kristen explained that she can’t wait to get
into her own character.
“She has this amazing ability to channel fear into this
really driving energy,” the L.A. native said of Snow
White and added, “Also, I get to use a sword and stuff.”
But even with a sword in tow, Kristen better keep her
guard up as Charlize described her character as a,
“serial killer,” and teasingly warned her co-star,
“Watch out…Kristen.”

Matt Damon: Brad Pitt &
Angelina Jolie 'Are Like Prisoners'
For an Oscar-winning, top box-office star who has also
been PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive, Matt Damon happily
lives life low-key.
He can't say that for some of his high-profile pals.
"I have friends who are like prisoners. Brad Pitt and
Angelina Jolie, for instance," Damon, 40, told German
television TELE 5 over the weekend. "They can't just go
someplace. If they go for a walk, it turns into an
international incident."
In contrast, says Damon, "I'm really lucky, because I
have the best of both worlds. I do the work that I love
and need, but don't need paramilitary troops to protect
me when I walk out my front door."
Besides, fame just isn't Damon's game.
"Ever since I found my wife [Luciana] and we had
children, my whole life revolves around that. It gave my
life a dramatic change in direction," he says.
Married in March 2003, the couple have four daughters.
"I'm not as crazy as most of the other stars. I don't
really know why, probably because I married a woman who
isn't an actress. And we live in New York," he said. "As
long as we don't show up in typical tourist spots, we
can walk the streets without being noticed. New Yorkers
are very cool, they don't flip out if they see me."

Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie Not
Getting Married
Those distant wedding bells that are supposed to be
sounding for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are even
further away than you think.
Contrary to reports, multiple sources tell PEOPLE the
couple won't be walking down the aisle any time soon.
Calling the latest rumors "false," one source says,
"There is no evidence nor any single truth" to recent
published reports that the couple will wed this summer
or in the next few months, though the couple remain open
to one day tying the knot.
Besides, they are too busy with projects and causes
close to their hearts – Pitt on set abroad filming his
latest movie, World War Z, and Jolie just returned to
Los Angeles, having spent family time with their
children on Pitt's Malta film location.
After shooting, Pitt will be busy with promotion for
Moneyball and Cogan's Trade, and Jolie will put the
finishing touches on her directorial debut, In the Land
of Blood and Honey.
Last month, in her role as a Goodwill Ambassador for the
United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Jolie
also visited two islands in the southern Mediterranean
Sea to highlight the crisis in the region, which is
absorbing an unprecedented wave of asylum seekers
fleeing starvation and political upheaval in Africa.
Not that the couple seem to be down on the thought of
marriage – and a few recent interviews helped fan the
rumors.
Jolie, 36, told ABC News last year she and Pitt would
get married if their kids – Maddox, 9, Pax, 7, Zahara,
6, Shiloh, 5, twins Knox and Vivienne, 3 – asked them
to, saying, "I think it would be hard to say no to the
kids." And Pitt, 47, told USA Weekend, "The kids ask
about marriage. It's meaning more and more to them. So
it's something we've got to look at."
Add to that construction going on at Chateau Miraval,
their home in the south of France, as well as the recent
passage of gay marriage legislation in New York state
(Pitt once said he and Jolie would get married when
everyone legally can), and the rumor mill churns away!

Nicole Kidman, Other Stars
Freak Out Meeting Will and Kate
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's Hollywood red carpet
debut on Saturday gave even Hollywood's most seasoned
celebs the jitters.
Nicole Kidman was snapped inside the Belasco Theater
gabbing with Prince William, on hand with Kate for
BAFTA's Brits to Watch 2011 gala. But before that big
moment, the Oscar-wining actress told Us Weekly on the
carpet that she worried about getting tongue-tied in the
presence of royalty.
"Oh, I don't know," Kidman said. "I'm quite shy!"
The duo were also seen chatting up Tom Hanks and Rita
Wilson, Jennifer Garner, Barbra Streisand and James
Brolin and others.
Jennifer Lopez took her mom, Guadaloupe, as her date --
and, in the excitement of the night, she tripped and
fell over her dress on the carpet! "I'm so embarrassed,"
she confessed. (The mom and daughter duo were later
snapped in conversation with the royals.)
Before her moment the with couple, Leslie Mann confessed
to Us she's been a big time royal watcher for a while.
"I am so excited!" the Knocked Up actress gushed. "I
flew all the way to London to watch the wedding, to
watch the procession! And then guess what it was so
crowded I couldn't even really see the procession and I
ended up watching it on TV in my hotel room...I love
them!"
After meeting William and Kate, both 29, at Friday
night's tech reception, Dana Delaney was a bit more calm
and collected. "They're hip, they're part of the new
generation, and that's fun. It was lovely to meet
them...She's probably a little more hip that he is," the
TV star joked.
"I really don't know if there's a special protocol or if
I'm supposed to do or say something special in
particular," Mad Men's Elisabeth Moss said. "I'm just
going to try and be really polite!"
Nervous tennis star Anna Kournikova planned to avoid the
royals altogether. "I don't think I'm going to be
bothering them!" she said.

Jennifer Aniston: 'The Break
Up' Helped Me Get Over Brad Pitt
Jennifer Aniston seems to have found love again with
Justin Theroux -- but back in 2005, she was still
smarting from her devastating divorce from Brad Pitt.
She dusted herself off by signing on for, ironically,
'The Break Up,' the hit 2006 romantic comedy costarrng
Vince Vaughn.
"It was a beautiful human story about a couple breaking
up...You know, I was slightly familiar on the topic and
the issue," Aniston, 42, confessed during her chat with
James Lipton for her 'Inside the Actor's Studio'
appearance.
"I honestly felt like, what a great way to sort of
exorcise some of that," she said of doing the film after
the end of her five-year marriage to Pitt, 47, who
famously paired up with Angelina Jolie afterwards.
Even 'The Break Up's producers balked at asking Aniston
to sign on for the flick given its sensitive subject
matter, she revealed.
"I was like, why not? Turn the page, let's move on." Her
romantic heartache made the role "easier" to do, she
said. "I enjoyed it! You'd think otherwise."

Megan Fox and Shia LaBeouf's
Hook-Up
In an instantly viral Details interview, Shia LaBeouf
spoke at length about a supposed onset fling with Megan
Fox, his former costar in the first two Transformers
flicks.
"Yes, Megan and Shia hooked up," a set source confirms
to Us Weekly. In his Details chat, LaBeouf, 25,
sputtered when asked if Fox was then involved with her
now-husband Brian Austin Green during their tryst (he
repeated "I don't know" 12 times).
But the kissing costars are in the clear, the source
says. "It was when Megan and Brian broke up," the source
explains. "They had a 10-month break before getting back
together." (Indeed, Fox and Green, 36, did have a break
of nearly a year before reuniting and eventually tying
the knot in June 2010.)
"[Shia and Megan] bonded while filming," the source
explains of the epic shoot, which was worsened by
director Michael Bay's rumored temper. "Believe me, that
was an unhappy set. I think they were drawn together
because it was so ugly working on that film."
Although Bay has said that Fox was fired (at Steven
Spielberg's demand) from the flicks for public comments
she made about him, "she was never fired," the source
insists. "She said enough was enough and quit."

Jennifer Aniston & Jason
Bateman's Double Date
A table for four and talk of tattoos. Just another night
on the town for Jennifer Aniston and new beau Justin
Theroux.
The couple were spotted dining at New York's Il
Cantinori Saturday night with Aniston's friend and
Horrible Bosses costar Jason Bateman and his wife Amanda
Anka.
Enjoying Grey Goose cocktails, Aniston, 42, started with
an arugula salad and shared a pasta course with Theroux.
Then it was chicken paillard for her and branzino for
him.
At one point, Theroux showed Bateman his inked torso,
which the waiter also complimented. Aniston herself is
new to the world of tattoos, showing off her first
during a walk in N.Y.C. Friday.
After sorbets, the couples headed out – hugging goodbye
before Aniston and Theroux were seen strolling down 10th
Street arm-in-arm.

George Clooney and Elisabetta
Canalis Split
George Clooney and Elisabetta Canalis have ended their
two-year relationship. "We are not together anymore.
It's very difficult and very personal, and we hope
everyone can respect our privacy," Clooney and Canalis
said in a joint statement Wednesday.
Added Canalis's publicist: "It is a very personal and
sad matter, and Elisabetta wants it to remain that way.
She will be taking some time ... and then will face the
press. She has not authorized me to say when the split
happened."
Spotted enjoying a meal in Italy just last week, the
handsome couple made their romance official in September
2009 at the Venice Film Festival. Months later, the
Italian star told PEOPLE she was enjoying life in the
limelight with Clooney. "Yes, I love it!" she said. In
May, they celebrated the actor's 50th birthday together
in L.A.

William & Kate to Be Fed by
Giada De Laurentiis
No In-N-Out Burger for Prince William and Catherine,
Duchess of Cambridge. Due to start the California leg of
their North American tour on July 8, the Royal Newlyweds
will head to the Santa Barbara Polo and Racquet Club the
next day for a charity match in which William will
participate, Kate and 2,500 other people will watch, and
the photogenic culinary artist Giada De Laurentiis will
cook, the chef revealed on Friday's Today show.
"I had no idea the Royal Couple would be attending," De
Laurentiis, 40, told Today.com. Meanwhile, in its
promos, the show had teased that a member of its staff
would be cooking for the Royals – prompting new co-host
Ann Curry to announce twice she wouldn't be the one
standing over the stove.
"And when I finally found out it was actually kind of a
bummer," says De Laurentiis of William and Kate being
the secret guests of honor. "I couldn't tell anyone – I
had to keep it hush-hush until their California
itinerary was released!"
That was Wednesday. So, on Friday, De Laurentiis spilled
the beans – rather, revealed her menu – which not only
represents California cuisine but also pays tribute to
her Italian heritage.
Among the dishes:
• A "light and colorful" pea pesto crostini, featuring
pureed peas on toast, topped with half a cherry tomato
• California chopped salad with a mix of grilled
lettuces, grilled corn, grilled shrimp, zucchini and
crispy tortillas in a light lemon dressing
• Chicken Milanese, which features breaded chicken
cutlets in a creamy tomato fennel sauce
Her girlfriends "freaked out" when she told them about
her royal connection, says De Laurentiis. "They couldn't
believe I didn't tell them [earlier]. Everyone tells you
that they would have kept the secret. But they are all
extremely ecstatic for me."
Now, De Laurentiis's only hurdle? Her outfit for July 9.
As she previews, "I'm thinking modern-day Pretty Woman."

‘Bad Teacher’ Cameron Diaz
Takes Germany
Everyone’s favorite sexy blonde took on Berlin today at
the Aldon Hotel.
Chic Cameron Diaz looked casually perfect while doing
the Germany photo call for her new movie Bad Teacher.
The bombshell has been promoting her film throughout
Europe, hitting up England and Spain just the other day.
The hysterical film opens June 24. Face it, if we had a
teacher like the rebel Cameron plays, we would never
miss a day of school. She is totally awesome with sheer
shirts, killer attitude, and kicking Christian
Louboutins.
The vibrant star acts alongside some big names in this
film. One name is even an ex-boyfriend! Juicy right?
The super talented Justin Timberlake reunites with his
off-screen ex as her potential love interest. Gosh we
would have loved to be a fly on the wall and seen that
interaction. We hear major flirting, despite Cameron’s
on and off relationship with baseball star Alex
Rodriguez.

Angelina Jolie Goes Without
Makeup, Wears Own Clothes in New Ad
In a brand-new print ad for Louis Vuitton's "Core
Values" campaign, a barefoot, bare-faced Angelina Jolie,
wearing her own casual clothes, savors a solo moment of
Zen aboard a wooden boat floating in a green marsh in
Cambodia's Siem Reap province.
Unveiled Monday morning in Women's Wear Daily, Jolie's
stark, beautiful new shot (with a weathered, monogrammed
LV Alto bag at her side) was photographed by legendary
photographer Annie Leibovitz who, according to WWD, had
to shoo Jolie's elder four kids out of the picture frame
to get her photo.
"People are not used to seeing Angelina in this
situation," Vuitton executive vice president Pietro
Beccari tells WWD of the chill, makeup-free image. The
36-year-old star first discovered Cambodia in 2000 while
filming Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, and is the birthplace
of her eldest son Maddox, 10. "I like the fact that it's
a real moment," Beccari added. "This travel message we
give through personal journeys is a fundamental one for
the brand."
Jolie was reportedly paid millions for the ad, which
she'll donate to charity -- joins other celebs who've
already starred in their own "Core Values" LV campaign
like Bono, Sean Connery, Keith Richards and Catherine
Deneuve.
"This campaign is about a very special person and a very
special journey," Beccari noted of Oscar-winner Jolie,
who remains active in community development and
conservation in Cambodia.

Keith Urban to Include Family
on His Tour
As Keith Urban previewed his 2011 Get Closer Tour, he
kept his family squarely in mind.
"When I put this tour together, I structured it so I'm
only gone maybe two or three days, maybe four days, –
sometimes I do four days in a row," the country
hearttrob, 43, told a crowd of about 700 people –
reporters and fans, mostly – Thursday at Nashville's
Municipal Auditorium.
Once his tour kicks off June 16, he said, his plan is to
"go home for a day or two or three, so I'm in and out. I
don’t go out for weeks and weeks and weeks at a time.
When we go to Canada and we do three weeks, I’ll bring
the girls out for some of that run."
And, by "girls," he's taking about his daughters with
wife Nicole Kidman: Sunday Rose, who turns 3 in July,
and Faith Margaret, 5 months.
As it is, his elder child is already attuned to the
finer points of touring.
"When we did the halftime show at the Dallas
Thanksgiving game," said Urban, "she was very concerned
about the pyrotechnics. And it was so funny because I
thought it was exciting, but she came up afterwards and
said, 'Daddy! Fire! The fire! So close to the fire!' "
Asked if he sings to Faith Margaret, Urban replied:
"Yeah, a little bit, around the house. We have a piano
and it's a very musical house."

Cameron Diaz and Alex Rodriguez
Split?
A bit more than a year after beginning, Cameron Diaz and
Alex Rodriguez's relationship seems to have struck out.
"They broke up a few days ago. He ended it," a source
tells PEOPLE amid reports of a split. "However, they
have broken up and gotten back together before, so not
sure it's forever."
A rep for the actress did not respond to a request for
comment, while a rep for the Yankees third baseman had
no comment.
After initially laying low, Diaz, 38, and Rodriguez, 35,
brought their love public late last year, vacationing in
Cabo, stepping out for coffee and cuddling at the Super
Bowl.
Just last month, the Bad Teacher star broke her silence
on their relationship, telling Maxim, "It's really
awesome."

Angelina Jolie: Brad Pitt's 'A
Great, Loving Father'
It's not every day Angelina Jolie talks openly about her
relationship with Brad Pitt – but when she does, the
superlatives flow.
"I love being with Brad," the Kung Fu Panda 2 actress,
35, gushes to the U.K.'s Telegraph. "I'm very lucky with
[him]. He is a real gentleman, but he is also a real
man's man."
Jolie, who calls Pitt, 47, "extraordinary," says he is a
"great, loving father," adding that he's "a very, very
intelligent man."
And when it comes to the couple's six children, Jolie
says she and Pitt were determined to raise a large
family only "if we could be really hands-on and take the
kids with us, seeing them every day."
"I'm always there on weekends," she says. "I only ever
work a five-day week, and I am often there for breakfast
or dinner. When I'm working, they come up at lunch. I
love that I can have children."
As much as she loves her kids, Jolie understands the
importance of their spending alone time with Pitt.
"It's special time for daddy when mom works for a few
months," says the actress and UN Goodwill Ambassador.
"And Brad is such a great dad. When I'm working, he's
putting in the extra dad time, and that's special for
their relationship, too."

Are Justin Timberlake, Ashley
Olsen Hooking Up?
The new Us Weekly, out Wednesday, reports that Justin
Timberlake and Ashley Olsen -- both newly single, former
child stars with their own fashion labels -- have been
inseparable (and flirty!) in and around NYC of late.
One insider close to the pair (spotted together at the
Greenwich Hotel, a Saturday Night Live afterparty, two
Broadway shows and a polo match outside the city) tells
Us: "They are hooking up."
Adds another source of the unexpected twosome, who both
ended high-profile relationships in March (he with
Jessica Biel after four years together, she with actor
Justin Bartha after two years): "They're really trying
to keep it on the down-low."
(A rep for Timberlake denies anything non-platonic,
telling Us: "They are friends. They are not romantically
involved.")
Still, an Olsen source says that the former sitcom kid
turned fashion mogul is "aware of Justin's reputation
with women, but...They're in the same head space."

Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie Shop
for Shiloh's Birthday?
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt went shopping at Ozzie
Dots, a party store in L.A., on Wednesday. With Shiloh
turning 5 on Friday, it's very likely the duo were
shopping for her upcoming fete!
Jolie, 35, carried the couple's bag of goodies. She even
sucked on a lollipop as she and Pitt, 47, made their way
back to their car.
In addition to Shiloh, the couple have five other kids:
Maddox, 9, Zahara, 6, Pax, 7, and twins Vivienne and
Knox, 2.
For Pax's seventh birthday in November 2010, the whole
family took a boat cruise on the Seine. Back in 2007,
Maddox turned six in the family's backyard with dirt
bikes, a slip and slide and four-wheelers!
Pitt, who plays a disciplinarian and sometimes abusive
father in his new film The Tree of Life, told Us Weekly:
"I certainly don't raise my kids the same was [as my
character does]. I am painfully aware that my actions
leave an indelible mark on them in these formidable
years."

Taylor Lautner Says Kristen
Stewart Was “Most Upset” About ‘Breaking Dawn’ Ending
Who was the most upset about Breaking Dawn coming to an
end? Taylor Lautner told Jimmy Kimmel he was “surprised”
by how upset Kristen Stewart got on set.
“All done,” Taylor confirmed on Jimmy Kimmel Live about
wrapping filming on Breaking Dawn. “It’s very weird.
Yeah, we’ve literally been filming these movies for the
past three or four years. It’s strange to know I’m not
going back; I’m not going to be Jacob Black anymore. But
on the other hand, we’re going to be promoting these
movies for the next two years.”
“Did anyone cry?” Jimmy asked.
“Yes, to be honest with you,” Taylor confessed.
“Who was most upset about breaking up the group?” the
host asked.
“I was pretty upset myself, but I think the biggest
surprise was Kristen [Stewart].” She’s very sweet, yes,”
he said to the audience. “I predicted it from the
beginning… On the last day, it did get emotional.”

Angelina Jolie on Filming ‘Kung
Fu Panda 2′: “You Work in Pajamas & Bring Your Kids”
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are all about family, as
they showed last night at the premiere of Angie’s flick
Kung Fu Panda 2. The proud mom brought her brood along
for the festivities at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in
Hollywood and she opened up about her love for filming
animated films!
When asked if she would work on more animated flicks,
Angie told reporters, “I would love to do more. You come
to work in your pajamas, you bring your kids, you work
with Jack Black and Gary Oldman. There’s no easier job
in the world.”
Brad and Angie brought along children Maddox, Zahara,
Pax and Shiloh Jolie-Pitt to check out the
family-friendly film.
“They loved the first one, and they’re all still growing
up. So the little ones don’t understand, the older ones
think it’s cool,” Angie said of her kids’ reactions to
hearing her voice in the film “But there’s a great scene
in it where they suddenly catch up with the “Furious
Five” and they’re all tied up. What I appreciated was
that my children said, “How did they get you tied up
mom?” And I said, ‘That is a very good question.’ ”
Angie, plays the Tigress in the film, a strong-willed
female.
“I like her, I have her weakness too,” Angie shared.
“She’s tough but sometimes she doesn’t know how to be
soft, and my kids have certainly helped with that too.
To get me a little softer, because I have a little bit
of a hard shell sometimes.”
The Oscar-winning actress also opened up about the
messages in the new.
“One is about inner peace and figuring out who you are
and coming to terms with that, and there is a message
about what family is and how a family is made,” she
shared. “Today more than ever we really understand that
family comes in all different ways, two mothers, two
fathers, single parents, different races, some are
adopted and so family is where the love is. Family is
where you find loyalty and friendship.

‘The Biggest Loser’ Brings On
Anna Kournikova
The fitness game, that is. Looks like tennis pro Anna
Kournikova is gearing up for her new gig as a new
trainer on The Biggest Loser! A big announcement is
anticipated to be made tomorrow night after the season
finale.
Since Jillian Michaels is leaving the show to focus on
having a family, as reported by X17, Anna will be the
newest addition to the hit show. She’ll provide her
fitness prowess and perhaps a good dose of tough love to
whip contestants into shape!
Anna’s credentials are no laughing matter. She debuted
at the 1996 U.S. Open when she was 15 years-old. In 2002
she was voted ESPN’s hottest female athlete and she’s
also graced the cover of Sports Illustrated’s swimsuit
edition. As if that isn’t enough, the fit femme has been
dating Enrique Iglesias for almost ten years now!

Galaxy of Stars Honor Oprah
Winfrey in Talk Show's Final Episodes
Madonna, Beyoncé, Halle Berry, Tom Cruise and Katie
Holmes ... the list goes on of A-list stars who
descended upon Chicago Tuesday to wish Oprah Winfrey
farewell at a taping of the talk-show queen's third- and
second-to-last episodes ever of The Oprah Winfrey Show.
"Having fun?" Winfrey asked about 13,000 audience
members packed into Chicago's United Center – which was
stocked with 13,000 boxes of tissue – for the taping of
two shows that will air May 23 and May 24. "So am I! So
darn cool!" (Winfrey's final episode will tape next week
and air on May 25.)
Tom Hanks, who acted as master of ceremonies Tuesday
night, told Winfrey, "You are surrounded by nothing but
love" before introducing a video of viewers talking
about how their lives have been positively impacted by
the talk show that's lasted 25 years.
"I feel the love, and I thank you for it," Winfrey told
the audience at one point, adding that the viewers
present and around the world "honor me in the deepest
way possible."
"They have literally risen up to change the world,"
Berry said of Winfrey's viewers. "The essence of The
Oprah Winfrey Show is that we're all more alike than we
are different."
Cruise, who walked out on stage to the theme music from
Mission Impossible, quoted Glinda the Good Witch of the
South from The Wizard of Oz, and told Winfrey, "You
always had the power [to change lives], and that is the
lesson you brought."
His wife said her viewers have donated more than $12
million to Women for Women, which helps female survivors
of war. "Oprah we love you," Holmes said. "We thank
you."
Madonna was slightly less sentimental: "A lot of people
are inspired by Oprah. I am one of those people," the
singer said. "She has balls and a wealth of compassion,
and I have learned so much from her."
Winfrey, teary throughout, thanked her guests and
audience. "Thank you for taking me to a place that is
beyond joyous," she said. "It feels like the rapture."

Brad Pitt Wants His Kids to
Consider Him a 'Damn Good Actor'
Brad Pitt said he was initially hesitant about taking
the role of a stern, authoritarian father in his latest
movie, The Tree of Life, because he was concerned how it
would affect his children.
"I think of everything I do now that my kids are going
to see when they grow up and how are they going to
feel," the star, 47, told reporters Monday at the Cannes
Film Festival. "But they know me as a dad and I hope
they'll just think of me as a pretty damn good actor."
Pitt plays a father bringing up his family in 1950s
Texas in Terrence Malick's long-awaited film, which also
costars Sean Penn, and arrives in U.S. theaters on May
27. And he hinted that his own childhood was hardly free
of issues.
"I got brought up being told things were God's way, and
when things didn't work out it was called God's plan,"
he said. "I've got my issues with it. Don't get me
started. I found it very stifling."
Pitt is joined at the festival by Angelina Jolie, who is
in town to promote Kung Fu Panda 2, and their children.
But the couple managed to enjoy a date night despite
their busy schedules. On Sunday they dined at Tetou, an
elegant but casual Michelin-starred fish restaurant on
the beach in Golfe Juan.
Jolie, who wore a three-quarter-length white dress, and
Pitt, in a black jacket and open-necked white T-shirt,
were mobbed by photographers as their left the
restaurant.
So far, it's been a wildly successful outing at Cannes
for the couple.
Over the weekend, it was announced that the Bosnian war
movie that Jolie wrote and directed now has a title, In
the Land of Blood and Honey, and will be released on
Dec. 23 by FilmDistrict.

Anna Kournikova's Miami Mansion
for Sale for $9.4 million
Having a body or a boyfriend like Anna Kournikova's may
seem a little out of reach, but you can live just like
the tennis star – for $9.4 million.
Kournikova's 6,630-square-ft. Miami Beach mansion is on
the market – even if she's not.
The ivy-covered, waterfront house boasts seven bedrooms,
eight full bathrooms, a sauna, a pool, a dock and a
two-story guest house. Notably missing? A tennis court.
The market description says the gated Sunset Island
abode is "perfect for outdoor entertaining" – perhaps
something she took advantage of with longtime boyfriend
Enrique Iglesias.

Julia Roberts: "I Earned the
Right to Stay Home"
Julia Roberts is quite alright working less and spending
more time at home
In an interview with Access Hollywood, the 43-year-old
wife and mom says she has no "mom guilt."
"Nope," she says, explaining that she's scaled back the
amount of work she now takes on. "I felt I earned the
right to stay home and be home and get super selective
abbot what I wanted to do work wise."
Roberts, who has been married to cameraman Daniel Moder
since 2002, has three children -- Henry, 3 and twins
Hazel and Phinnaeus, 6. Part of her time at home
includes cooking for her family, but she has a few
conditions when she's in the kitchen. "I have a
steadfast rule that I run a kitchen, not a diner," she
says. "So I just make one meal… I try to be healthy, but
listen, I love myself some bacon! So I have to cook what
I think we're all going to enjoy.. But I try to make it
as healthy as possible."

Pippa Middleton's Party Gown Is
Gorgeous in Green
Like her sister Duchess Catherine, who donned a second
wedding dress on Friday evening after the royal wedding,
Pippa Middleton also changed into another gown for the
post-reception party.
While Pippa, who served as maid of honor, also wore a
dress by Alexander McQueen creative director Sarah
Burton to the ceremony, she chose designer Alice
Temperley to make a custom look for the evening's
festivities.
Pippa wore an emerald green Temperley London gown to the
dinner dance hosted by Prince Charles at Buckingham
Palace.
"I was honored that Ms. Pippa Middleton asked me to
design her dress for the Royal Wedding evening
reception," Temperley said Friday. "Pippa was a delight
to work with and knows exactly what she likes. She loved
the green color, which looks great on her skin tone. The
dress was designed especially for her with a fantastic
open back and a full skirt for dancing in."
She completed the look by complementing the gown with
silver Aruna Seth heels.
Aside from Kate Middleton, who was photographed in a
Temperley London dress last year, young celebs from Isla
Fisher to Emma Roberts have recently been spotted in the
designer's party-perfect frocks.
Pippa's pick is especially fitting since the Queen
royally appointed the designer. Temperley was named a
Member of the Order of the British Empire for her
services to the fashion industry in March 2011.

Royal couple delay honeymoon
after lavish wedding
Following a spectacular Royal Wedding that dazzled the
world, Prince William will go back to work as a
search-and-rescue pilot next week before taking his new
wife on honeymoon abroad.
The new Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, looking fresh
after partying into the early hours in the wake of
Friday's wedding, boarded a helicopter in the Buckingham
Palace gardens on Saturday for a weekend break at a
secret location in Britain.
The prince will resume his job as a search and rescue
pilot next week before the honeymoon starts at an
undisclosed date, the royal family said in a statement.
"The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have chosen not to
depart for a honeymoon immediately," it said, using the
new titles bestowed on Prince William, 28, and the
former Kate Middleton, 29, by Queen Elizabeth.
"The locations of both their private weekend before the
Duke returns to work and their future honeymoon, which
will be overseas, will not be disclosed in advance," it
said, pointedly ignoring feverish speculation as to
where the couple will go.
After a relationship of almost a decade, they married in
London's towering 13th-century Westminster Abbey on
Friday as a million cheering supporters lined the
capital's streets.
Worldwide, estimates put the global television and
online audience at 2.4 billion people -- more than one
in three of the global population if the figure is
accurate.
Commentators praised the royal family for striking a
balance between choreographed pomp -- military bands in
black bearskin hats and household cavalrymen in shining
breastplates -- and personal spontaneity at the wedding.
"The British still know how to combine pageantry,
solemnity, romance (and wild hats) better than anyone
else in the world," wrote Sarah Lyall in the New York
Times.
William drove his bride the short journey from
Buckingham Palace to St James's Palace in his father's
open-top Aston Martin with the license plate "JU5T WED."
Photographs of their kisses on the balcony of Buckingham
Palace carpeted newspaper front pages.
The day ended with a late-night party for the couple's
friends and family, for which Kate changed into a
strapless off-white dress and a cropped knitted cardigan
while William donned a black dinner jacket and bow tie.
British media quoted one guest, Millie Pilkington, as
saying the speeches at the bash were "absolutely
hysterical."
Newspapers were also awash with pictures of Middleton's
sister and maid of honor Pippa in a slinky dress which
drew a chorus of approval. "Is Pippa the most eligible
woman in the world?" asked the Daily Telegraph.
Like other details of the wedding, including the
designer of Middleton's dress, the honeymoon venue was a
secret.
Suggestions have included the Seychelles, Kenya, the
Caribbean island of Mustique, an island on Australia's
Great Barrier Reef, the Greek island of Corfu and the
Scilly Isles off England's southwest coast.
The intense speculation over the couple's every move
underlines the pressure they will face as the future
British king and queen living in the full glare of the
media spotlight.
Uncomfortable parallels have been drawn between
Middleton and William's hugely popular mother Princess
Diana, who was hounded by paparazzi right up to her
death in a Paris car crash in 1997 aged just 36.
Her death, and divorce from heir to the throne Prince
Charles the year before, marked a low point for the
royal family, which has also been embroiled in scandal
and is seen by many as being out of touch with the
British public, particularly during austere economic
times.
But Middleton's background -- she is the first commoner
to marry a prince close to the British throne in over
350 years -- and William's personable style have helped
reverse the monarchy's rating in recent opinion polls,
at least for now.
Not that the wedding was universally acclaimed in a
country where many people face harder times, including
unemployment and cuts in social services, due to a
government austerity program meant to cut Britain's huge
budget deficit.
"The royal family have too many rights in a country
where other people are having their state rights
withdrawn. We are funding a wedding of two people I've
never met and I don't care about at all," said London
charity worker Jessamy Barker, 29.
Middleton has been given the title Her Royal Highness,
The Duchess of Cambridge, after the queen made her
grandson William the Duke of Cambridge to mark the
marriage.

Sarah Burton: I'm "Very Proud"
to Design Kate Middleton's Dress
Now that the cat is out of the bag, Alexander McQueen's
creative director, Sarah Burton, can finally open up
about the process of designing Dutchess Catherine
Middleton's wedding dress.
Calling it "the experience of a lifetime," the clothier
explained that "Alexander McQueen's designs are all
about bringing contrasts together to create startling
and beautiful clothes and I hope that by marrying
traditional fabrics and lacework, with a modern
structure and design we have created a beautiful dress
for Catherine on her wedding day."
"The last few months have been very exciting and an
incredible experience for my team and I," she continued,
"as we have worked closely with Catherine to create this
dress under conditions of the strictest secrecy."
Burton admitted that it wasn't easy to keep the details
of the 29-year-old bride's dress under wraps.
"Understandably, Catherine has been very keen to keep
the details of her dress a secret, which is every
bride's prerogative," she explained. "We gave an
undertaking to keep our role confidential until the day
of the wedding."
After Middleton made her grand entrance outside
Westminster Abbey on Friday morning, Burton said Prince
William's longtime love looked "absolutely stunning."
"The team at Alexander McQueen are very proud of what we
have created. The dress was just one component of a
spectacular day, and I do not think it is appropriate to
comment any further beyond saying that I personally am
very grateful and honored to have been given the
opportunity to work on this project," she said. "I wish
TRH The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge every good wish
for the future."

Julia Roberts: My Kids Love My
Cooking
Julia Roberts is an Academy Award-winning actress, a
box-office champ, a Broadway star and now the executive
producer of Jesus Henry Christ, which debuted Saturday
at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York. But her kids
want her to whip up another successful career.
"They think that I'm a good cook," Roberts, 43, told
PEOPLE at the premiere. "They actually told me that I
should open a restaurant."
Henry, 3, and twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, 6, say their
favorite dish is "everything made with love," Roberts
said.
For now, though, Roberts is focused on her film, which
she worked on with her older sister Lisa Gillan, who
co-produced, and her husband, cinematographer Danny
Moder, who shot it.
"It was so great to be working on the same movie with
him. He's so good at what he does. He's so clear and
focused," Roberts said of Moder, whom she met while
working on 2001's The Mexican. "It's actually hard to
get his attention on the set because he's really like,
'No, I'm working.' But at lunch I will be like, 'Hi,
remember me, your wife?' "
As for working with her sister, Roberts, who walked the
red carpet with Lisa, says filming went smoothly thanks
to their strong bond. In fact, it's rare that they will
have a fight.
"We are always happy. We maybe will have an argument
once a year just to get it out of our system so we don't
make people sick," Roberts said with her signature
boisterous laugh. "We've shared a room for 12 years and
we lived in the same apartment building. We liked living
together. So we know everything about each other. We're
very close."
Working with loved ones certainly makes the film-making
experience richer but Roberts also enjoyed her role as a
producer, rather than the leading lady.
"The best part for me being a producer was creating an
environment that makes actors comfortable," the Eat,
Pray, Love star said. "It's about not bugging them and
trusting them. The actors took the parts that we already
loved and turned them into these glorious machinations
of quirky, amazing characters, so we were thrilled."

Rob Pattinson Still "Madly in
Love" With Kristen Stewart Post-Twilight
Filming for the Twilight series has wrapped, but Robert
Pattinson and Kristen Stewart show no signs of slowing
down.
The normally private pair were inseparable at his April
17 NYC premiere of Water for Elephants and shared a rare
public smooch as they left the Le Cirque afterparty.
"They had a long, slow kiss," a witness tells the new Us
Weekly (on stands now). "You could tell they'd been
waiting all night. They were very affectionate."
After all, according to Donna Scott, Pattinson's Water
for Elephants costar, "He is madly in love with her!"
See more photos of Rob and Kristen making out.
Indeed. Just one week earlier, Pattinson, 24, stood by
his girlfriend's side at Stewart's 21st birthday bash
(which doubled as the Breaking Dawn wrap party) at
Rockwell's Bar & Grill in Vancouver on April 9.
"They held hands, and he kissed her cheek," a source
tells Us of the twosome, who were joined by costar
Taylor Lautner and his girlfriend, Lily Collins.
And Stewart's gift -- a motorcycle form the cast and
crew -- gave Pattinson another chance to dote. "Rob
watched as she sat on it to make sure she was OK!" a
source says.

Kate Hudson: Second Pregnancy
Is "Totally Different" Than First
Unlike her first pregnancy, Kate Hudson is well equipped
for the arrival of her second child (this one with Muse
rocker Matthew Bellamy).
"This time I'm actually set up. Whereas before with
Ryder [now 7], I didn't even have a nursery. I didn't
really have a house until I was seven months pregnant,"
the actress told reporters while promoting Something
Borrowed in Santa Monica, Calif. on Sunday. "This time
it feels like I actually got to paint a nursery. I
actually have a color in a room!"
(The 32-year-old mother-to-be chose a neutral color,
yellow, because "it's a good sunny color for kids.")
"This is a totally different pregnancy, completely,"
Hudson explained. "It couldn't be more opposite."
What does Ryder -- her son with ex Chris Robinson --
think about becoming a big brother?
"He's got a sister, but now he's really enjoying it. He
like making fun of me," Hudson laughed. "He's like,
'You're huge,' and all that kind of stuff. He's very
protective, Ryder is."
How so? "I put spicy stuff on my food and he goes, 'Mom,
don't eat that.' I said, 'What?' He said, 'Don't eat
that.' This was last night. He said, 'The baby might not
like spicy.' I was like, 'What's going on?' All of a
sudden he doesn't want me to drive a car. 'You shouldn't
be driving.' I can't get up on anything high. Like I got
up on the thing to get his ball out and he went, 'Just
get down.' He's very protective. It's pretty cute."
Though Hudson wouldn't reveal her due date -- "I'm due
sooner than later," she teased -- she did put one rumor
to rest: "It's not going to be twins!"

Robert Pattinson Says “Sometime
in the Future” He’d “Love to Have a Family”
In a new interview, Twilight star Robert Pattinson
shares some Kristen Stewart baby news from filming
Breaking Dawn. But he does say he’d love to have a
family of his own… someday.
Rob is sad to say goodbye to Twilight and his character,
Edward, who he’s grown quite fond of.
“It does feel like a breakup. I do love the guy — and
I’m going to miss him,” Rob, 24, tells the Chicago
Sun-Times. “I prefer to think of ending this franchise
like leaving school. It’s the last day of high school.”
“It’s been amazing to play the same character through so
many adventures,” he adds. “And it’s so strange because
my life has changed so much over these years, but
Twilight and Edward Cullen will always be a part of me.
It’s been my whole life. My whole 20’s. And I wouldn’t
have it any other way.”
One thing he would like to have a different way are fake
interviews being published about him settling down with
Kristen, like an Italian magazine allegedly wrote.
“I don’t understand how they printed that. It’s a
completely made-up interview,” Rob says. “I’d love to
have a family — sometime in the future.”
Until then, he’s been busy starting a family with
Kristen — on-screen!
“It was insane, intense,” Rob says of filming the birth
scene. “It was a pretty traumatic scene for me to do as
an actor and, frankly, horrible for me emotionally.
“Edward has tried for so long not to turn Bella into a
vampire and now… well, it’s very sad,” he adds. “He
feels like he has let her down.”
But those are all the secrets you’ll get out of him.
“Now stop asking or I’ll be in trouble.”

Taylor Lautner Says Kristen
Stewart Trying to “Act All Tough” Was “Funny” to Watch
Taylor Lautner gets to see Kristen Stewart’s tough side
in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, but he had a hard
time taking her seriously!
MTV News had Taylor think of the most exciting scene to
film in Breaking Dawn and Taylor had a tough time coming
up with one initially.
“It’s really hard to choose because we’re filming two
movies so we’ve been filming for five month,” he said.
“There’s been so much we filmed.”
But then he thought of a great scene with Kristen!
“Recently we did a scene in the backyard of the Cullen
house where Bella (Kristen) gets mad at me,” he
explained. “She just learned that I imprinted on her
daughter, and she is literally throwing me around the
backyard. So it was pretty fun to see Kristen try and
act all tough.”
“She’s a vampire; she’s chucking me across the yard into
trees and stuff,” he explained. “It was funny.”

Kristen Stewart Celebrates 21st
Birthday With Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner & Lily
Collins!
It sounds like Kristen Stewart had a very good 21st
birthday party! The Twilight beauty reportedly partied
late Saturday night at the wrap party for Breaking Dawn
with Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner and his rumored
girlfriend/co-star Lily Collins!
PopSugar has photos of Rob and Kristen sharing
cigarettes outside the Breaking Dawn wrap party and
reports that Taylor and Lily were also there!
The group reportedly took turns riding Taylor’s
motorcycle and Rob even shared a quick kiss with
birthday girl K-Stew, too!
According to Celebuzz, Rob and Kristen were reportedly
not in attendance for the wrap party at Rockwell’s Bar
and Grill in Squamish BC, but did party with the cast
and crew on site.
The photos are a bit blurry, but Celebuzz’s source says
Rob and Kristen’s PDA isn’t surprising.
“Rob and Kristen are affectionate, it’s not like they
try to hide their relationship anymore from their
friends,” the source explains. “They just aren’t
obnoxious about it and don’t need to do it for the
press.”

Ashley Tisdale: I'll Always Be
Close with Zac Efron & Vanessa Hudgens
The High School Musical franchise has come to an end,
and Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens recently called it
quits. But Ashley Tisdale says she and the former couple
will always be the three musketeers.
"We're always there for each other," Tisdale, 25, told
PEOPLE of her former castmates Wednesday at the DVD
release of her HSM spin-off Sharpay's Fabulous
Adventure. "I love being with them. They're so
supportive. It's just like a bond. I can't explain it,
but they're like a family I've grown up with."
Tisdale says the trio always pick up right where they
left off. "We're growing up and we're working on
different projects, but we're all super supportive of
each other," she says. "They're like my brothers and
sisters."
The bond between the three stars, forged beginning with
the first HSM in 2006, was evident at Tisdale's Soho
House launch party in West Hollywood, where both Efron
and Hudgens were all smiles as they came out to support
their pal.
Hudgens, 22, rocking a shorter, pinned-up 'do, told
PEOPLE she was "feeling great" fresh off a trip to
France, where she and her mom "enjoyed eating crepes."
She and Efron, 23, took their turns posing with Tisdale
on the carpet, before the three were led to a private
area in the back of the venue, where they celebrated
with Tisdale's family and other former HSM stars.

Robert Pattinson Wants to 'Beat
the (Bleep)' Out of the Paparazzi
On the big screen, Robert Pattinson kicks major butt as
the ever-undefeatable vampire, Edward Cullen.
And while he won't be sprouting fangs in real life,
those moves he's mastered for the Twilight movies might
just come in handy one day – paparazzi, you have been
warned.
"When the whole thing dries up and there's hardly any
paparazzi around – I don't know, in 15 years or
something – I like the idea of just one paparazzo coming
out and trying to get a picture, and I just beat the
s--- out of him," Pattinson, 24, tells Elle magazine. "I
mean, out of nowhere, when my picture's not even worth
[money], and I've spent all my money, so you can't sue
me!"
Until then, the British hunk, whose rumored real-life
romance with costar Kristen Stewart has thrust him even
further into the public eye, is fighting off the
attention without actually fighting anyone.
Pattinson says he out-smarted – and angered –
photographers in a recent run-in at Venice Beach. "A
bunch of paparazzi were following me, and I thought the
best way to deal with it was to stop my car in the
middle of the street and say, 'I'm not leaving, and I'm
not going to speak to you anymore,' " he says. "They got
all pissed off because they can't just keep taking the
same picture."
But it was no laughing matter: "They kept trying to get
all these drug dealers to come up to the car. I was
like, 'Oh my God, this is insane.' "
As for rumors printed about him, Pattinson tries to take
them in stride. There was one story a few years ago that
reported the British hunk was pregnant, about which he
quips: "Yeah … That was true, though."

Wedding Bells
for Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart – Onscreen
Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are getting ready
to walk down the aisle – as their characters Bella Swan
and Edward Cullen.
The (onscreen and off) lovebirds are beginning to wrap
up primary filming of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn,
both parts 1 and 2, which is expected to finish this

mortal Bella and vampire Edward tie the knot.
In anticipation of the big scene, many Breaking Dawn
cast members have been arriving in Squamish, Canada.
Anna Kendrick, Justin Chon, Gil Birmingham, Christian
Serratos and Ashley Greene are among those who've so far
come to town for wardrobe fittings and for hair and
make-up.
Also spotted nearby:
• Kellen Lutz having a casual lunch in the lounge of
Rockwell's Restaurant, where he was reading a book and
checking his phone, according to a witness.
• Mackenzie Foy, who plays Stewart and Pattinson's
child, was spotted skipping around the grounds of her

the young star and waved. She enthusiastically waved
back before heading back inside.
• Jackson Rathbone was also out for a walk enjoying the
spring sunshine recently when he was swarmed by a group
of 'tween girls who'd been celebrating a birthday lunch
in the hotel restaurant. They offered him a bouquet of
Gerber daisies and giggled as they spoke with him.
Jackson graciously accepted the flowers and thanked the
girls.
• Taylor Lautner was snapped having dinner at one of his
favorite sushi restaurants in Squamish on Thursday. The
star, who was dressed down in sweat pants and a hoodie,
appeared relaxed, according to an observer
• And Peter Facinelli is clearly hard at work: The
actor, who plays Carlisle Cullen, Tweeted on Wednesday:
"All nighter tonight @ work. Sleep tight. I'll be
lurching in the woods."

Robert Pattinson Says “I’m Not
a Man for Short & Superficial Love Affairs”
Robert Pattinson wants to keep his private life private
especially when it comes to discussing his relationship
with Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart. But Rob did open
up with Italy’s Style Magazine on his dating style, view
on marriage and plans for the future!
Rob’s new interview with Italy’s Style Magazine (via
Huffington Post) is nearly too good to be true.
The Twilight and Water for Elephants star talked a lot
about his personal for someone who said he doesn’t talk
about his personal life.
“My private life is off-limit,” he said. “I’ve never
spoken about my flirts, I’m not a man for short and
superficial love affairs. I don’t talk about my
relationships with female friends, not to mention how I
don’t talk about my relationship with Kristen Stewart,
an actress I admire because she’s a real person, and a
real actress.”
“It was the chemistry I had with her that helped me to
get my role in Twilight,” he added. “I don’t let people
take pics of the houses I rented both in New York and
London. When I’m in L.A. I live mostly in hotels. You
can live very well in the anonymity of a hotel room,
especially when you have a piano to play.”
So what does his romantic future look like and does he
have plans to settle down?
“This is me, just me: I’m not interested in casual
relationships, I need to know people, I’m not making an
existential statement here: simply, I want a family,
with 2 or 3 kids. Not funny?” he asked. “I really wish I
could talk to animals more than to people who think they
know me just from my movies.”
Well, his view on relationships doesn’t sound that far
off from Edward Cullen’s view!

Reese Witherspoon Stops for
McDonald’s on her Wedding Day!
Just because Reese Witherspoon is due to get married to
Jim Toth later today in Ojai, doesn’t mean that the
Sweet Home Alabama star can’t be a regular mom, even on
her big day.
Reese, 35, was spotted pulling into a McDonald’s drive
thru this morning in her Highlander Hybrid to pick up
breakfast for her adorable kids, according to an
eyewitness, despite having to get dolled up for the
ceremony in the afternoon.
Reese looked “relaxed and happy,” says the onlooker, as
she drove through to pick up a bite to eat for Ava and
Deacon, her children with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe.
The couple’s A-list wedding guests have already started
to arrive at the Ojai inn and spa, where the ceremony is
slated to take place today.
Renee Zellweger, Robert Downey Jr., and Salma Hayek were
just some of the guests spotted at the wedding location
a few hours ago ready to watch the bride walk down the
aisle.

"Smokin' Hot" Renee Zellweger
Parties After Bradley Cooper Split
Looking good is the best revenge just ask Renee
Zellweger.
Days after splitting with her boyfriend of nearly two
years, Bradley Cooper, the 41-year-old actress put her
best foot forward when she attended a pal's low-key
birthday bash at NYC's La Esquina restaurant Saturday.
"She wore a skin-tight black dress and amazing lace-up
shoes," an eyewitness tells UsMagazine.com. "She looked
smokin' hot."
And people certainly noticed. "At one point, three
waiters came up to see if the table needed anything
because they wanted to check out Renee."
Though Us broke the news of her split just one day
earlier, the Oscar-winning actress showed no signs of
heartbreak during the outing. (She and Cooper, 36, began
dating in July 2009 after meeting on the set of the
thriller Case 39 four years earlier).
"She tried to make it work, but in the end it was too
hard," a Zellweger insider told Us. "Her friends feel
bad it ended, but she's okay."

Bradley Cooper & Renée
Zellweger Split
It's over for Bradley Cooper and Renée Zellweger.
Cooper, 36, and Zellweger, 41, who met in 2009 and moved
in together last fall to become one of Hollywood's most
glamorous couples, have broken up, sources tell PEOPLE.
Although the pair never officially confirmed their
relationship, they were frequently spotted out together
and Cooper has been vocal about his feelings.
"I can't say enough about her," he said in September
while promoting the couple's film Case 39. "I just love
her. I [loved] coming to work. I love acting with her. I
can learn so much from her."
Zellweger even skipped the Golden Globes in January at
the last minute to be with Cooper when his father died.
She was also close to Cooper's mom, Gloria.
But in February, there was speculation about their
relationship when they each attended a pre-Oscar party
but didn’t hang out together.

Billy Ray Cyrus: I Called Off
My Divorce
How do you mend an achy breaky heart? Billy Ray Cyrus
says he's doing everything he can.
"I've dropped the divorce," Cyrus, 49, said during an
interview on The View scheduled to air on Friday. "I
want to put my family back together … Things are the
best they've ever been."
"I feel like I got my Miley back in a way," he added
during Thursday's taping. "I feel like we are the daddy
and daughter that we were before Hannah Montana
happened."
But the last few months have not been easy for Cyrus.
In October, he and wife Tish issued a joint statement
announcing plans to end their 17-year marriage. A few
months later, a startling video went viral of the
couple's daughter, Miley, smoking natural herb salvia
out of a bong.
Then, in an unguarded interview with GQ, he blamed
Hannah Montana for "destroying my family," and said he
felt Miley surrounded herself with people who put her
"in a great deal of danger."
At the time, Billy Ray also told PEOPLE he was doing
everything he could to find family unity again, saying
in an exclusive statement, "It is very important to me
to work on mending my family right now."
Even now, Cyrus still maintains his family would be in a
better place if Miley didn't become a celebrity.
"I don't think Hannah Montana ruined my family ...," he
said during the View taping Thursday. "Now fame, fame is
a different animal. You've got to be careful with that
thing."

Katie Holmes Reveals Her Secret
Hobby
Katie Holmes spends most of her time on the road
traveling – but she's learned to navigate the nomadic
lifestyle and maintain a homey feeling wherever she
goes.
One of her tips for making daughter Suri Cruise, who'll
be 5 in April, feel at home no matter where they are?
"Bring lots of crayons, glue good paper and you can turn
any room into a very warm, familial place," Holmes, 32,
tells Women's Wear Daily.
Holmes – who travels for her own career as an actress,
to promote her fashion line, Holmes and Yang, and to be
with husband Tom Cruise – says one of her favorite
hobbies is doing arts and crafts projects with her
little one.
"My husband got me a sewing machine for my birthday,"
Holmes said, adding that she likes to get Suri involved.
"My mom grew up making curtains and pillows and
everything, and it made our home very warm, so I like to
do things like that with my daughter."

Céline Dion is back in Sin City
– and she's bringing her family with her!
Céline Dion Promises Baby Photos & Lullabies in New
Vegas Show. After a run of over 700 shows at Las
Vegas's Caesars Palace in the last decade, the singer
returned the "room that Céline built" Tuesday with a new
show – one the prominently features her three children,
René-Charles, 10, and the recently baptized twins Nelson
and Eddy, whom she called "a gift from heaven."
"I've been an open book all of my life," she said
Tuesday. "There is no way for me to come back here and
not share my most precious thing."
"The world knows I just had two more beautiful babies,"
Dion said. "If I come here and I don't sing a lullaby or
do not show one picture with my family, I think it's
going to be missing something. I love to share my
private life."
Unlike her previous Vegas show in The Colosseum which
featured dancers, Dion's new show is all about her – and
features a 31-piece orchestra.
Though her new twins weren't in the audience for
Tuesday's debut, René-Charles sat in the orchestra
section with his father, Réne Angélil.
"What I didn't understand until I became a mother was
the power, the strength and the beauty of the love of a
parent for a child. In fact it knows no boundaries,"
Dion said before a video montage featuring home videos
of her family. "It is endless and it exceeds everything
else."
While singing her hits, Dion sprinkled in many cover
songs from Journey, Michael Jackson and Billy Joel. She
later said the show takes a bit of a toll on her,
considering she gets little sleep raising newborns – not
that she regrets it.
"Growing up with three little boys, I mean, four," she
said, joking about her husband. "All that love for a
mom. What a blessing!"

Vanessa Hudgens: Zac Efron
"Kept Me Grounded"
Her romance with Zac Efron made Vanessa Hudgens the envy
of tween girls everywhere, but the Beastly actress tells
this month's Shape Magazine it actually helped her stay
normal.
"The relationship kept me grounded," Hudgens, 22, says.
"And Because I was with someone who knew me so well, I
didn't need to try to be someone that I'm not."
But Hudgens, who split with the 23-year-old actor in
December, says that busy schedules made things difficult
to maintain.
"Long-distance relationships are hard no matter what,"
she says. "When You don't have face-to-face time, it's
just different. Having an iPhone helped but it wasn't
the same."
Still she expressed no regrets about spending nearly
five years with the High School Musical hunk.
"We grew up together," she says. "It was nice to have
someone share all those experiences with. It was a good
thing."

Robert Pattinson & Kristen
Stewart Talk Kissing In ‘Twilight’
MTV is counting down the days until Robert Pattinson
answers fan questions live on Friday and debut a new
Water for Elephants clip.
MTV interviewed Kristen and Rob in Portland, Oregon
while they were on set filming Twilight before it had
become the huge success that it is now.
So that means this was back when Rob and Kristen weren’t
as private about their personal lives!
“Kristen’s the best actress of her generation, and
that’s why I wanted to do this movie. I don’t know why
she is, but she’s better than everyone else,” Rob
explained before bursting out in laughter.
“You don’t want me to talk about you?” Kristen added. “I
think he’s really handsome.”
So what was it like kissing Rob back then?
“His teeth are pretty sharp,” Kristen said laughing.
“It’s great. I like it.”
“Every time, I just try to kill her,” Rob said.
“And [Bella] likes it,” Kristen added. “She’s a total
sadomasochist, if you think about it.”

Taylor Lautner & Kristen
Stewart Evacuated in Tsunami Warning
With Hawaii and the North American West Coast placed on
tsunami advisories early Friday after an 8.9-magnitude
earthquake struck in Japan, the Vancouver Island beach
area in British Columbia where Taylor Lautner and
Kristen Stewart and the rest of the Wolf Pack are
filming the Twilight series' Breaking Dawn has been
evacuated.
The actors are not believed to be in any danger, but for
safety measures they apparently have been moved out of
the region.
The town where production is taking place, Tofino,
contains a long stretch of open coast on the furthest
westerly point of the island and was seen in the earlier

She later added, "If this is the moment. Then I've lived
a good life. And I'm thankful 4 everything I've been

It'll Be A Pink Baby Shower For
Victoria Beckham As David Reveals Posh Is Having A Girl
After three adorable, bouncing baby boys, Victoria
Beckham is finally going to get her little girl.
David Beckham has confirmed his wife, Victoria, is
pregnant with a little girl.
"Obviously, we're very lucky to be expecting again, and
this is the first time I'm going to say it -- it's a
little girl," David said at the LA Galaxy's annual fan
luncheon in ESPN Zone at L.A. Live., ESPN reported on
Friday.
The soccer star said the news has left the pair amazed.
"We're still in shock. Obviously, having three boys, you
kind of expect another one, so finding out a little girl
is in there is surprising, but, obviously, we are over
the moon," he said. "Our three boys are happy and
excited, and Victoria is doing well."
In February, Victoria told CNN she was planning to find
out the sex of her baby, following intense media
speculation.
"Though the English tabloids think they know the sex of
my baby, I don't know the sex of my baby," she said.
"Honestly [I] do not know the sex of my baby. I might
find out when I get back to London because I want to
find out now."
Victoria -- who is a mom to three boys: Brooklyn, 11,
Romeo, 8, and Cruz, 6 -- has never made a secret of
hoping to have a girl one day.
"The clothes would be amazing, but if I don't have a
girl this time, then maybe I'll be lucky enough and have
a girl the next time," she told CNN last month.

HairTech Drops Multi-Million
Dollar Lawsuit Against Paris Hilton
Hairtech International, a distributor of hair
extensions, has agreed to dismiss the multi-million
dollar lawsuit it filed against Paris Hilton.
After Paris filed her own counterclaim for $1.7 million
against Hairtech’s claims and a judge tossed out the
majority of their claims as invalid, an agreement was
made.
The terms of the settlement remain confidential, but
Paris will not be paying anything to Hairtech in
exchange for the dismissal of its claims.
“I am glad to put this case behind me,” Chris Volek,
Hairtech principal, stated about the settlement. “It was
only after we got into the case that I realized the
information I received from others on which I based the
lawsuit was not accurate, and I only wish the best for
Paris and her family. As I have told her many times,
Paris is a true professional and invaluable to the
promotion of any product she touches.”
“I am thrilled with this result and I too wish the best
for Chris in his future endeavors,” Paris responded. “It
is certainly not unusual for business people to have
their disagreements, but I am glad that Chris has
acknowledged the hard work and dedication I put in to
promoting his products.”

‘Twilight’ Director Says
Kristen Stewart Felt “Love At First Sight” for Robert
Pattinson
Who better to share the story of how Kristen Stewart and
Robert Pattinson “fell in love” than Twilight director
Catherine Hardwicke? In a new interview with Newsweek,
Catherine doesn’t skimp on the juicy details!
While Catherine was casting for the role of Edward in
Twilight she got a call about a guy from London, she
recalled to Newsweek.
“I looked at a couple pictures and was like, ‘I’m not
sure,’?” Catherine explained. “He had been fired from
his last job, he was unemployed, he was in debt.”
Rob even spent his own money to fly in to read the part
opposite Kristen.
“I have footage of their first meeting at my dining-room
table,” she said. “Kristen was like, ‘It’s got to be
Rob!’ ”
“She felt connected to him from the first moment,”
Catherine explained. “That electricity, or love at first
sight, or whatever it is.”
Rob and Kristen actually kissed for the first time for
their screen test on the director’s bed at her Malibu,
Calif. home!
But before Rob was given the role, Catherine made him
make a promise to her.
“You’ve got to realize that Kristen is 17 years old,”
she told the actor, who is four years older than
Kristen. “She’s underage.”
“You’ve got to focus, dude, or you’re going to be
arrested,” she warned. “I made him swear on a stack of
Bibles.”

Anne Hathaway, James Franco
"Hate Each Other"
Usmagazine.com: A source tells Us Weekly that Anne
Hathaway, 28, and James Franco grew to "hate each other"
as they rehearsed to host the Oscars Feb. 27.
"She had to provide all the energy -- he was just
phoning it in," says a second insider. ("James seemed in
his own little world," during the Oscar telecast, says
another source. "Producers were pissed.")
In fact, as UsMagazine.com reported Monday, after the
awards, Franco, 32, skipped his own party at L.A.'s The
Writer's Room.
"He went immediately back to NYC because he was pissed
about how the show went," adds a third source.
Franco's rep responds, "This is absolutely not true,”
while Hathaway's rep says, "Anne had a wonderful
experience with him."
Still, fans should expect a new MC in 2012. Insiders say
both Hugh Jackman and Billy Crystal want the gig again.

Oscar Winners Well Fed at
Afterparties
People.com: After winning her Oscar for The Black Swan,
Natalie Portman feasted – and the star was in good
company.
Decamping to the Governors Ball within the Hollywood and
Highland complex immediately after Sunday's ceremony at
the Kodak Theatre, the Best Actress enjoyed a spread
prepared by celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck. On the menu: a
three-course dinner of salad, Dover sole and lemon
cheesecake.
Guests, including Justin Timberlake, Best Supporting
Actor winner Christian Bale and Russell Brand, also
enjoyed passed appetizers that included smoked salmon
Oscar flatbread, tuna tartare in sesame miso cones, mini
cheeseburgers, black truffle pizza, crispy rice and taro
root tacos. There were also food stations with sushi and
shellfish, a dessert bar – plus Moet & Chandon
champagne.
As for Oscar co-host Anne Hathaway, she told PEOPLE at
the party that her first priority was finding some
nourishment. "First things first," she said. "I have to
get something to eat. I'm starving!"
Meanwhile, at the Pacific Design Center, stars like
Vanessa Hudgens, Chace Crawford, Glee's Chris Colfer and
more assembled for Elton John's annual AIDS Foundation
viewing party.
While Florence Welch (of Florence + the Machine)
provided the entertainment, Chef Ludo Lefebvre designed
the menu. Guests noshed on a four-course meal made up of
goat cheese soup, red and yellow beet salad, sole with
spinach puree and coconut polenta and beef tenderloin
and local greens.
After the meal, guests took part in an auction before
Welch took to the stage at 10 p.m. to perform her hits
and even share the stage with John, who sang a duet with
her of his classic "Tiny Dancer."
After the concert, many guests, including Hudgens and
Ashley Tisdale, kicked off their shoes and danced up a
storm.
But Heidi Klum and hubby Seal opted for a sweet ending
to their night: The model picked up a heart-shaped
marzipan chocolate ... while Seal opted for a white
chocolate truffle at the Godiva station.

Oscars' Five Best Moments
People.com: This year's Academy Awards are
already just a memory, but Hollywood's annual glamour
fest provided some poignant and funny moments along the
way.
1. Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis's Crackling Delivery
The Friends with Benefits costars were together again,
their onscreen chemistry translating to the stage, too.
The witty Timberlake cracked Kunis up with his deadpan
delivery of several jokes, literally causing her to
double over with laughter at one point as they presented
awards for animated films.
2. Harry Potter and Twilight Get the Auto-Tune Treatment
Add some clever technological maneuvers, and presto – a
serious confrontation between Hermione Granger (Emma
Watson) and Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) during Harry
Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 becomes a
hilarious musical created with Auto-Tuned voices.
Edward, Bella and a shirtless Jacob – Robert Pattinson,
Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner – also got the same
treatment during a scene from Twilight: Eclipse,
jokingly titled "He Doesn't Own a Shirt."
3. Christian Bale Chokes Up Paying Tribute to His Wife
Bale has played a gruff, gravelly voiced Batman, a
grizzled boxer in his Oscar-winning performance in The
Fighter, and myriad of other tough-guy roles. So when he
choked up when it came to thanking his wife, Sandra "Sibi,"
it was a departure for the towering Brit. "Of course
mostly my wonderful wife (pause) ah – I didn't think I
was like this – my wonderful wife who is my mast through
the storms of life, I hope I'm likewise to you,
darling," he said from the stage. Judging by her beaming
face, it seems he is.
4. Luke Matheny: Big Winner, Big Hair
When he won the Oscar for his Live Action Short Film God
of Love – a comedy about a lounge-singing darts champion
– Matheny, sporting a huge mass of curly locks,
immediately admitted, "I should've gotten a hair cut!"
His enthusiastic acceptance speech and his shout-out to
his mom for helping out on craft services brought some
more charm to the proceedings – and loud applause from
the audience.
5. Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr.'s Banter
It got physical, with Law putting a hand on Downey's
chest before telling him to "shut up." His reason? As
Law earnestly introduced the nominees for the Visual
Effects Oscar, Downey interrupted him to criticize the
category – more than once. "If it wasn't for them, your
closest association with a superhero would have been in
2001 when you got busted in a cheap hotel with a woman
dressed as Bat Girl," Law ribbed the Iron Man star.
After a brief, stunned pause, Downey Jr. clarified,
"First, that cheap hotel room cost $1,250 a night, with
a corporate discount. Secondly, it was 2000 and not
2001. And most importantly, she was dressed as Wonder
Woman." Later, Downey Jr. added, "Jude Law no longer has
a ride to the after parties if anyone's interested." The
stone-faced actors, who starred in Sherlock Holmes
together, were clearly joking about any disagreement,
making the faux rivalry all the more fun.

Robert Pattinson on Filming
Birth Scene With Kristen Stewart: “Kind of Hilarious”
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are taking their
filming relationship to the next level in The Twilight
Saga: Breaking Dawn. Rob is opening up about the
“hilarious” scenes he’s had to film with Kristen so far
and how he’s not sure Twilight can keep it PG-13!
Rob shared an update on how filming is going on Breaking
Dawn with USA Today and said the film is “so far outside
of the box.”
“It’s really different from the other ones. There are
some days on set just watching you go ‘How is this going
to be PG-13?’” he said laughing. “It’s like totally
ridiculous.”
Rob said he has filmed the birth scene with Kristen
already and it was “kind of hilarious.”
“She has to have this pregnant suit on all the time,
that was probably more annoying for her,” he explained.
But Rob didn’t only make jokes about Kristen, he gave
her a big compliment on her acting.
“I can’t give too much away but there’s some bits,
especially towards the end of the movie, she’s just like
the polar opposite of any of the other (films),” he
said. “I mean, she’s a different person, which is cool.
She looks completely different. She looks probably the
most convincing vampire out of all of us.”
“A lot of us look like we’re just from Mars,” Rob
explained. “She’s kind of the smallest one, but she
suits being a vampire.”
And in the shooting schedule for Breaking Dawn, the
birth scene came before filming the wedding, which is
set for April.
“That’s a hard scene too,” Rob admitted.

Natalie Portman, Colin Firth
Are Top Oscar Winners
The Oscars paid royal tribute to The King's Speech,
honoring the drama about King George VI as Best Picture
and shining gold upon its Best Actor Colin Firth,
Director Tom Hooper and Screenplay writer David Seidler.
"I have a feeling my career's just peaked," Firth said
on the stage of Hollywood's Kodak Theatre Sunday night,
at the 83rd annual Academy Awards.
The British actor was so excited he admitted to
"experiencing stirrings … in the abdominal region that
are threatening to turn themselves into dance moves."
Natalie Portman, as the troubled dancer in Black Swan,
was named Best Actress. "This is insane," she said in
her speech. "I truly, sincerely wish the prize tonight
was to work with my fellow nominees. I am in such awe of
you."
The Fighter's Melissa Leo and Christian Bale took the
Oscars for Supporting Actress and Actor.
Disney-Pixar's Toy Story 3 claimed the Animated Feature
Oscar and another for composer Randy Newman's Best Song,
"We Belong Together."
The technical awards were monopolized by Inception, with
four, and Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland, with three.
Surprisingly, the Coen Brothers' True Grit, which went
into the evening with 10 nominations (second only to the
12 for The King's Speech) ended up being entirely shut
out.
Melissa Leo Drops F-Bomb
Over the course of the three-hour-plus evening, Leo was
the first major winner. Reaching the Kodak Theatre stage
and admitting the situation left her "shaking in my
boots," Leo also dropped the F-bomb because of her
excitement.
"When I watched Kate [Winslet, for The Reader] two years
ago, it looked so [expletive deleted] ..." ABC bleeped
out the words.
Speaking backstage to reporters afterwards, Leo –
dressed in a Marc Bouwer gown with Jay Carlile for
Forevermark earrings and diamond ring – said, "Those
words – I apologize to anyone if they offend. There's a
great deal of the English language that is in my
vernacular. I really don't mean to offend, and probably
a very inappropriate place to use that particular word."
When Best Supporting Actor Bale won later in the
evening, the strongest phrase he used was "bloody hell."
He did acknowledge costar Leo's speech, however.
"I'm not going to drop the F-bomb like she did. I've
done that plenty before," said Bale, referring to an
on-set, 4-minute rant two years ago, in which he was
quoted as using the F-word 36 times during the making of
Terminator Salvation.
In the Adapted Screenplay category, the winner was Aaron
Sorkin for The Social Network. In his eloquent
acceptance speech, he held his Oscar with pride, then
addressed his daughter: "Roxy Sorkin, your father just
won the Academy Award. I'm going to have to insist on
some respect from your guinea pig."

Inside Rihanna's Star-Studded
23rd Birthday Bash
Rihanna celebrated her 23rd birthday Sunday night by
rocking out with some of music's biggest names – but
also found time for some quiet celebrating with old
friends.
The pop star rushed to her party at a private home in
Beverly Hills after performing at the NBA All-Star Game
in Los Angeles. When she arrived, a party guest tells
PEOPLE that she was treated to a taste of home – in the
form of Sprinkles red velvet cupcakes with the Barbados
flag imprinted on them.
She grabbed a full-sized confection, announcing, "I'm so
hungry," the source says.
Before all her guests arrived, Rihanna managed to sneak
away to party with her best girlfriends in a secluded
room in the Beverly Hills house. When she later joined
the main party, she sported a tight-fitting pink dress
with some purple fringe around the skirt.
There, she greeted her high-wattage friends warmly. "She
[gave] Ryan Phillippe and Zac Efron huge hugs," the
source says, adding that the two actors hung out
together and chatted throughout the night.
Also on hand: Cee Lo Green and his crew, who were
spotted noshing on some of Oxtail and plantains, as well
as Mary J. Blige and Jay-Z, who were "laughing and
having a blast posing for photos in corner of the
party," the source says. Blige also "squealed with
excitement" when she caught sight of Diddy, and they
shared a long hug.
Later, Snoop Dog and Warren G rolled in at 1 a.m. and
proceeded to dance and sing along to some old-school
hip-hop songs while guests cheered them on.
Joel Madden and Christina Milian were also celebrating
with the birthday gal, and both them indulged in vanilla
and red velvet cupcakes, respectively.

Billy Ray Cyrus: 'I'm Scared'
for Miley
She may be an international star, but to Billy Ray Cyrus
daughter Miley is still his little girl.
That's why it's been so difficult for him to watch the
recent events: the infamous video of her smoking the
herb salvia from a bong and the 18th birthday party that
he refused to attend because it was in a bar.
"I'm scared for her," Billy Ray, 49, tells the March
issue of GQ. "She's got a lot of people around her
that's putting her in a great deal of danger. I know
she's 18, but I still feel like as her daddy I'd like to
try to help. Take care of her just a little bit, to at
least get her out of danger."
Billy Ray adds, "I want to get her sheltered from the
storm. Stop the insanity just for a minute. When you go
through what she's been through, it takes a beating on
you. And there comes a point where you just got to step
back."
But the "Achy Breaky Heart" singer says he feels
squeezed out of her life. He reminds people that while
he appeared with her on the hit show Hannah Montana,
he's not her manager and has no say in her professional
life.
"For the record," he says, "to set it straight, I want
to tell you: I've never made a dime off of Miley. You
got a lot of people have made percentages off of her.
I'm proud to say to this day I've never made one
commissioned dollar, or dime, off of my daughter."
Billy Ray blames the problems on bad advice given to
Miley by her handlers and the pressures of the Disney
Channel show, particularly the shooting of the final
episodes in January 2010. By the fall, Billy Ray would
be in divorce proceedings with Miley's mother, Tish
Cyrus.
"The damn show destroyed my family," he says. "And I sit
there and go, 'Yeah, you know what? Some gave all.' It
is my motto, and guess what? I have to eat that one. I
some-gave-all'd it all right. I some-gave-all'd it while
everybody else was going to the bank. It's all sad."

What Do the Kardashians Want
For Valentine’s Day?
She may idolize Elizabeth Taylor – and her famous bling
–but for Kim Kardashian, Feb. 14 is about much simpler
sentiments.
For Valentine's Day, "I like a long card," the reality
star, 30, told PEOPLE at a QVC fashion week event in NYC
Friday. "Write me your feelings – it’s all about the
feelings and the card."
Her sister, on the other hand, is hoping for something a
bit more sparkly.
"For me, diamonds will do the trick," says Kourtney, 31,
with a grin.
The sisters, who live in Los Angeles and shoot their
spin-off series in New York, are on the move again for
Valentine’s Day.
"We will both be in Vegas," says Kourtney.
Hoping, no doubt, to be lucky in love.

Looks like Kristen Stewart may be the fairest one of
them all! It’s official: She has been offered the lead
role in Snow White and the Huntsman.
According to PopEater, Twihard fans may rejoice: Kristen

become Snow White, it’ll be her first project after
wrapping up The Twilight Saga.

The Glee gals are certainly
getting used to this red carpet business!
Even though the crew didn’t nab the golden statute for
their hit fox show, the ladies all beamed bright at last
night’s SAG Awards held at the Shrine Auditorium in L.A.
Neutral hues seemed to be the hit color — Lea Michelle,
Heather Morris, Jenna Ushkowitz and Naya Rivera all

Lea allegedly denied Hailee an autograph and then Hailee
revealed in a recent interview, while promoting True
Grit, that she was very upset by Lea’s coldness.

Britney Spears Walks Down the
Aisle – for a Friend's Wedding!
Looking beautiful in blue, Britney Spears was bridesmaid
in her friend's wedding in Miami Saturday.
She and boyfriend Jason Trawick flew in Thursday to
partake in the weekend wedding festivities of her
assistant and close friend Brett Miller.
They bunked down in an oceanfront room at the Newport
Beachside Hotel where members and friends of the wedding
party were staying, a source tells PEOPLE, but she
didn't make it to the kickoff event.
"During Thursday night's rehearsal dinner, Britney
ditched the reception and ordered room service for
herself, Jason and her bodyguard," the source tells
PEOPLE. "They had spaghetti bolognese, turkey burgers,
chicken noodle soup, a fruit plate and one turkey
sandwich."
Leaving her parents and friends at the Sunny Isles hotel
Friday, Spears and Trawick moved into the Frank Sinatra
Suite at the Fontainebleau in Miami beach because the
Newport hotel's "pool wasn't private" enough.
Their new digs were reportedly a $35 million penthouse
that rents for $15,000 a night, is four bedrooms, has a
kitchen, whirlpool, piano and a large balcony
overlooking the ocean.
After a few hours shopping, Spears and Trawick headed
back to the Newport for another wedding party. "At one
point, during the early evening Jason took Britney's
hand and twirled her to a cool Frank Sinatra sound," the
source tells PEOPLE. "It was cute and romantic."
The couple left the party after Spears she noticed that
a group of kids spotted her in the ladies room, and
headed for the Fontainebleau club LIV.
"Britney and Jason were dancing and laughing and having
a great time at LIV," another source tells PEOPLE. "He

Robert Pattinson Causes a Stir
at a Louisiana Deli
He's busy filming Breaking Dawn in Baton Rouge, La., but
during a recent lunch outing at a local deli, Robert
Pattinson ended up feeding his fans' appetites.
"A couple of girls who work in here are young … and they
were absolutely star struck," a source at Maxwell's
Market, where the actor dropped in for sandwiches, tells
PEOPLE.
Pattinson is a repeat customer at the deli and, despite
the attention he earned from the younger employees, the
source says he's just like any other customer. "He's
just a regular guy, and that's how we try to treat him,"
says the source.
During his most recent visit, Pattinson was accompanied
by an unidentified male friend and "grabbed a couple of
sandwiches and left," the source says.
As for his costar, and off-screen love Kristen Stewart,
she hasn't dropped by the deli … yet. "I haven't seen
her in here," the source says. "But I'm keeping my eye
out."

Ricky Gervais Trashes Angelina
Jolie, Tom Cruise, Charlie Sheen
Golden Globes host Ricky Gervais pulled no punches
during his opening monologue at Sunday's awards fest --
mercilessly savaging Angelina Jolie, Charlie Sheen, Tom
Cruise and other A-listers.
The British comic said the crowd should look forward to
"a night of partying and heavy drinking -- or as Charlie
Sheen calls it, breakfast," and then went on to re-tell
the Two and a Half Men's notorious NYC plaza fit.
He then trashed the nomination of The Tourist starring
Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp despite critical pans.
"Who knows? I haven't seen it," Gervais admitted.
"There's this ridiculous rumor going around that the
only reason The Tourist was nominated was so that the
Hollywood Foreign Press could hang out with Johnny Depp
and Angelina Jolie. That's rubbish. they also accepted
bribes." Depp was seen in the audience making a sour
face.
The host then mocked the cast of un-nominated Sex and
the City 2. "Girls, we know how old you are! I saw one
of you on an episode of Bonanza."
Gervais praised the equally unheralded I Love You,
Phillipp Morris starring Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor.
"Two heterosexual actors pretending to be gay--which is
the exact opposite of some famous Scientologists," he
said as the crowd booed, presumably referencing Tom
Cruise and John Travolta. "Probably! My lawyers helped
me with the wording of that joke."
Later in the show, Gervais also took a dig at Bruce
Willis, introducing him as "Ashton Kutcher's dad!"
Willis, introducing a clip, simply smirked.

People’s Choice Awards goes to!
At
times
the 2011 People’s Choice Awards
was like one big long commercial with Queen Latifah,
Jennifer Aniston and Johnny Depp sprinkled in.
But
luckily all those commercials didn’t make it into the
photos from the show! Queen Latifah tried to keep the
night fun in between stars like Taylor Swift, Zac Efron
and Katy Perry accepting awards on stage.
Do you think
the show was a hit or miss this year? Zac and Johnny
beat out Robert Pattinson for the Favorite Movie Star
Under 25 and Favorite Movie Category early in the show
at the Nokia Theatre Wednesday night.
To Twi-hards, this
news was devastating as they had to continue to wait for
Rob to take the stage. But we must admit, Zac and Johnny
were a nice consolation prize to Rob fans!

Scarlett Johansson & Ryan
Reynolds Split Up!
Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds have separated.
"After long and careful consideration on both our parts,
we've decided to end our marriage," they say in a joint
statement. "We entered our relationship with love and
it's with love and kindness we leave it. While privacy
isn't expected, it's certainly appreciated."
According to a source, Johansson initiated the split.
The actress has started apartment-hunting in New York
City and is currently in Jamaica with some girlfriends,
the source adds.
However, last month the pair were spotted looking cozy
together at New York hotspot Avenue.
Johansson, 26, and Reynolds, 34, tied the knot in a
quiet September 2008 ceremony in a wilderness retreat in
Vancouver, which is Reynolds's hometown. The ceremony
was attended only by a handful of close family and
friends – and no photos were released.
"It was my mission to have a moment of privacy, to do
something for myself," Johansson told the Los Angeles
Times of the hush-hush affair. "I was happy with the
results of that."
The pair remained fairly mum about their relationship,
only rarely giving up small tidbits about their married
life.
But the actress told In Style in April 2010 that she
enjoyed cooking for Reynolds – and her domestic life
with him. "There's a nice comfort in that. That part of
your life is certain, in a way. You've got your home in
that other person."

relationship to the next level: They're getting hitched!
"We're excited and incredibly happy about our engagement and
we look forward to a wonderful future together," the

recently revealed that the couple shower together twice a
day. "It's not a sexual thing and it's not a romantic
thing," she said. "It just becomes an intimate thing ...
I've had some of my most intimate conversations with him in
the shower."

The will be the second marriage for Lachey, who was
previously married to Jessica Simpson.

Lady Gaga and Snooki Halloween!
Lady Gaga and Snooki sightings will run rampant across the
country this Halloween. Gaga, known for her outrageous
outfits and killer heels, is the No. 1 most-requested
celebrity Halloween costume in America, followed by the
guidos and the guidettes of The Jersey Shore.
"Lady Gaga and Jersey Shore have been our top sellers," said an employee
at the novelty store Ricky's NY. "Of the Shore cast, Snooki
has been the top.
Everyone is coming in to find black wigs and Bump-Its." Adds
Kristin Stroud of Campus Costume in Bloomington, Ind., "A
lot of people have been buying orange body paint from us for
their Snooki costume." With many wacky Gaga outfits to
choose from, expect lots of leather leotards, artistic
headpieces, fishnets, and – for the daring trick or treaters
– possibly a spin on the infamous meat dress worn by the
singer at the 2010 VMAs.
"We also sold a lot of Lady Gaga accessories. The sunglasses
were the top seller," said sales associate Shavon Henry of
Party City in Dallas. Another pop princess on the scene this
Halloween is Katy Perry.
The newlywed's blue wig worn in her California Gurls video
is especially popular – as are The Town nun masks and Toy
Story characters.

Birthday Gift from Her New Boyfriend.
Ever wondered what a successful male model buys his
famous Hollywood actress girlfriend for her birthday?
Well, if Louis Dowler is anything to go by, it’s luxe
fashion all the way. For his girlfriend Kate Winslet‘s
35th birthday last month, he paid the Belstaff store in
London a visit and came away with the perfect gift—one
of their classic leather jackets.
Store manager of the Mayfair boutique, Fabio de Matteis
tells PEOPLE: “He wanted a special present for Kate and
took his time looking at the whole collection.” After
browsing the British brand’s iconic selection of leather
jackets, shoes and accessories, he opted for the Triumph
jacket, a fitted, belted style with stud detailing.
And Dowler wasn’t shy when it came to gushing about the
birthday girl. “He said how much Kate loved her
motorcycle but she only had masculine things to wear on
it, so he wanted to treat her to something more
feminine.
” Obviously, the jacket, which retails for more than
$1,000, was a hit as Winslet has already been spotted
working a new biker-chic look, accessorized with a smile
and a certain model on her arm. People.com

star making a brief appearance at the movie's booth at the
popular convention's Preview Night on Wednesday.

rocking a black leather jacket and discussing her

to co-stars Tina Fey, Will Ferrell and Jonah Hill with a
cardboard cut-out of himself.
"Unfortunately, since Angelina's here, Brad had to watch the
kids," director Tom McGrath joked.

admission!
He's long had a crush on the Oscar-nominee. But after

happy to take their relationship in another direction.

her for years!" the 6'8," 25-year-old actor – who plays

married and I was like, 'Okay, I'll settle for
friendship.' "

She's one of the most beautiful women inside and out
that anybody can have the pleasure of knowing, meeting
and working with, and I felt so honored to be in that

Joe Jonas & Demi Lovato Up the
Romance in Camp Rock 2
Best pals Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato are headed back to
the small screen for more singing and dancing in the
Disney Channel sequel, Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam. But
this time around, expect more onscreen love interests –
and romances to be taken to the next level.
"There's a lot more romance with my character and even
with Nick's character," Joe Jonas told PEOPLE about the
highly anticipated film airing next summer. "The
romance, the singing and dancing – everything is bigger
and better."
In the sequel, the film follows Mitchie (played by
Lovato) and Shane (played by Joe Jonas) as they return
to Camp Rock for another summer of music and fun. Their
love blossoms as they battle against a new
state-of-the-art music camp called Camp Star that has
opened across the lake.
"The romance between Shane and Mitchie is still there
and it continues to grow," Jonas says. "They want to
spend more time together but [finding time is a bit]
difficult for them to do, because she is trying to help
out the camp as much as she can."
Revisiting her breakout role was "exciting," says Lovato,
17, and starring with the Jonas Brothers again was a job
that guaranteed a good time. "They are so easy to work
with and we just hangout and have fun," Lovato tells
PEOPLE. "They are like my brothers and they are my best
friends. They always make me laugh."

Jennifer Aniston Pokes Fun at Her
Life and Movies
Jennifer Aniston has a plan for achieving a future without
love life complications – and it’s all in her choice of
movie titles.
Accepting Women In Film’s Crystal Award for expanding the
role of women in the entertainment industry, Aniston took
the stage Friday – in a body-baring Prada dress – and
pointed out to the crowd of mostly female Hollywood movers
and shakers that her personal fortunes over the past several
years have been reflected in the titles on her film resume.
"I'm trying to be more careful than I have been in the past
about the titles of movies that I choose to be in," Aniston
revealed. "It's funny – I kind of noticed something a couple
years ago that there seemed to be this strange parallel to
the movies I was doing and my life off screen."
“It started with, well, The Good Girl," she explained. "Then
that evolved into Rumor Has It, followed by Derailed, and
then there was The Break-Up. And then on the lighter side
was Friends with Money, which I felt was a bit on the nose.”

Halle
Berry Mentally Ready for Another Baby.
Halle Berry is open to having more kids – but don't
expect her to be like octuplets' mom Nadya Suleman.
Berry confirms to Ellen DeGeneres on her show that she
wants another child, but says she's not up for double
digits.
"I hope I don't have like 14 more," quips Berry,
who is mom to 1-year-old Nahla Ariela. Still, Berry
isn't ruling out that a brother or sister could be in
the future for her daughter with model Gabriel Aubry.
"My mind says yes," she tells DeGeneres, "but the rest
isn't up to me so we'll see." Should it be up to Aubry,
however, something could be in the works: He told PEOPLE
in February that Nahla "needs a sibling.
" And, unlike
Berry, he doesn't limit the numbers. Said the man who
comes from a brood of eight, "I believe in big
families."

Seinfeld's Back in the Comedy
Saddle
For the first time since Seinfeld wrapped in 1998,
funny man Jerry Seinfeld
is making his first big TV comeback with new unscripted
comedy series The Marriage Ref.
Partnered with Oprah Winfrey Show executive
producer Ellen Rakieten,
Jerry has created a show in which "opinionated celebrities,
comedians and sports stars ... will candidly comment, judge
and offer different strategies for real-life couples in the
midst of a classic marital dispute."
The comedian is quick to add that, "This is not a therapy
show, it's a comedy show." Jerry first pitched his idea to
NBC's Ben Silverman,
who said, "We were laughing the whole time as [Jerry and
Ellen] went through the concept. As Jerry noted, some of the
greatest comedies in history have been about marriage."
NBC has ordered six episodes of the series, but has not yet
alloted it a timeslot or premiere date.
The comedian cites his own experience as inspiration for the
show. "After nine years of marriage, I have discovered that
the comedic potential of this subject is quite rich," Jerry
said.
