Maggie Gyllenhaal & Peter Sarsgaard are expecting their second child Posted: 28 Nov 2011 08:51 AM PST This is the opposite of shocking, but it's still a nice story – Maggie Gyllenhaal is knocked up again! Life & Style "confirms" (but not really) that Maggie and her husband Peter Sargaard are expecting their second child. Maggie and Peter are parents to five-year-old Ramona… damn, is that kid already 5? It feels like Maggie was just pregnant with Ramona a few years ago. Anyway, we totally called this when we were talking about Maggie's sketchy style at the Rome Film Festival – she had an obvious baby bump in late October. My guess is that she's already well into her second trimester.
[From Life & Style] Maggie and Peter are pretty much settled in NYC, right? And Jake lives in NYC most of the time too, and I buy that Maggie and Jake are genuinely close and that Jake relishes being a doting uncle. Congrats to the whole family! I've always thought Peter was so hot – but I always like the ones with crazy eyes. |
Anne Hathaway is engaged to her boyfriend of three years, Adam Shulman Posted: 28 Nov 2011 08:35 AM PST Damn, I just had a conspiratorial side-eye in the Christian Bale post about Anne Hathaway, and now here she is, all princessy and engaged. Yes, People Magazine is confirming that Anne is engaged to her boyfriend of three years, Adam Shulman. Three things: one, Adam is Anne's first relationship after her years-long relationship with imprisoned con artist Raffaello Follieri. Two, after the Follieri mess, Anne got the reputation as a very high-maintenance girlfriend, so good luck to Adam Shulman (who I think looks sort of like Ryan Gosling, right?). And three, I still kind of think Anne might have cheated on Adam with a costar. Mostly because of this Lainey blind item. But anyway… congrats to Anne and Adam!
[From People] I used to find Anne rather cloying and annoying, but I've grown to like her a great deal over the past few years. She came out of the Follieri mess relatively unscathed, she started working really hard and turning in some good to great performances in film after film, plus I kind of like that she seems like an anal-retentive girly-girl. She seems organized, smart and yes, high maintenance. And if Adam wants to marry her… good for them. |
Christian Bale says he’ll never be Batman again: who should replace him? Posted: 28 Nov 2011 08:06 AM PST I don't really know why any of this is such huge news, but everybody is running with it like it's something huge. Christian Bale has given an interview where he claims (not for the first time, mind you) that this third Christopher Nolan-directed Batman film is his final one. He's said this several times – he only wanted to do three, Nolan only wanted to do three, and Batman geeks knew – as soon as they heard that Tom Hardy was cast as Bane – that Batman didn't have many places to go past this third installment. First, Bale's comments – which include some nice words about Anne Hathaway (insert conspiratorial side-eye here):
[From Us Weekly] So, it's done. And much like the Jason Bourne films, I think that Nolan and Bale will stick to their guns and refuse to do another film, no matter how much they're offered (Paul Greengrass and Matt Damon said no to the money as well for a fourth Bourne film). But much like Bourne, the franchise has simply made too much money for too many people, and producers aren't going to let some artist-types have the final say – not without disinterring the corpse and slapping it around a few times. So even though Bale and Nolan are done and The Dark Knight Rises will probably make a billion dollars easy and everyone will be happy with the Nolan trilogy, somebody will say, "Hey, we should get another director in here and start all over again with a new Batman!" It's inevitable. So HuffPo asked – Who should the next Batman be? You can see HuffPo's list here – they have some decent names on the list. But I just have one word for you good bitches: FASSDONG. Michael Fassbender as Batman? OH DEAR GOD YEEEEEEEESSSS. I should mention this too – if Daniel Craig is ever done with James Bond, lots of people want Fassbender for Bond too. I think he might be better as Batman though? |
Bruce and Kris Jenner are on the rocks, fighting over money & their reality show Posted: 28 Nov 2011 07:32 AM PST
[From The National Enquirer, print edition, December 5, 2011] There’s more in there about how it hurt Bruce’s feelings when Kris announced that she wanted to change her last name back to “Kardashian” from “Jenner.” Those of you who watch the show say that Bruce sometimes meekly disagrees with his wife and kids but that he’s shot down every time. If this is true that he wants his wife to cut back on work, and particularly if he’s hoping the show will end, it’s probably pissing Kris off to no end. She can’t deal with another high profile breakup, particularly her own, at this crucial point in her family’s media career. I would just love it if Bruce filed for divorce, but he doesn’t seem the type to rock the boat at all. If he were, he would have hightailed it out of there a long time ago. So instead he’s filling his time with golf and hobbies, and Kris is so controlling that she’s even trying to take those small pleasures away from him. E! has some details of the premiere episode of Kourtney and Kim Take New York. It’s all about how Kris H. and Kim were incompatible and seeing the writing on the wall. We know that Kris Humphries is going to be portrayed as the baddie this season, and that Kim oversaw the editing of her show to make sure that happened. Kim knew what she was getting into, and she’s a fool if she thinks that the public is going to buy her victim act. She needs a nice compliant doormat husband like her step dad. These photos of Kris and Bruce out together are from 8/4/11. Event photo is from 1/5/11. Credit: WENN |
Victoria Beckham dresses baby Harper Seven in $50 tights for London flight Posted: 28 Nov 2011 06:51 AM PST Victoria Beckham is the recipient of "The Flynn Kerr-Bloom Effect" from me – meaning that I like a celebrity baby so much, my opinion of the celebrity baby's parents greatly improves. I adore little Harper Seven Beckham. She is one adorable, well-dressed, well-behaved, gloriously chubby babies I've seen, and I like Victoria and David Beckham so much more now that they have little Harper. Anyway, these are photos of Posh and Harp at LAX yesterday – they're flying into London to attend tonight's British Fashion Awards. I love how Posh isn't carrying any luggage, or even a purse. I'm sure she has "people" for that, but not even carrying your own purse in an airport? You should always have your passport and your boarding pass close at hand, for the love of God. But Victoria knows how to put together a candid photo, and how to treat every candid photo shoot like she's owning the catwalk. The Mail pointed out that for the flight, Harper's ensemble included a pair of ribbed Chloé tights, at the cost of £30 a pair (approximately $50 or so). Would you put your baby in $50 tights? Meh. So far, Harper has been clad in Stella McCartney, Bonpoint and Marie-Chantal. I want Harper to grow up to be a dirty-jeans-wearing tomboy so badly. Anyway, I'm sure Posh will be front and center at tonight's British Fashion Awards. Her fashion lines are doing very well, and she's really remade herself into a modern designer, hasn't she? In a recent interview, Posh discussed her business:
[From The Mail] Posh has celebrity clients too – Kate Winslet wears her designs, as does Jessica Simpson and Cameron Diaz (I'm just naming these off the top of my head). But whenever I point out that a celebrity is wearing VB, most of you absolutely hate the ensemble. What does that mean? Does it mean she still has work to do? |
LeAnn Rimes has a Twitter hissy fit about (what else?) Brandi & the kids Posted: 28 Nov 2011 06:21 AM PST These are a few new and newish photos from LeAnn Rimes's Twitter feed. I think she got a better, higher-quality camera to take all of Twit-pics, because some of these photos are actually quite pretty (technically speaking) and why not make the investment in something LeAnn uses on an hourly basis? The header photo is the one LeAnn published on Thanksgiving – I guess she and Eddie had the kids for the holiday? Sure. Mason and Jake are so, so cute, but what's up with Eddie's sketchy mustache? Yikes. I kind of wish we had the photos of LeAnn after Thanksgiving – you can see them here at The Mail. She went shopping braless, her bolt-ons looking really immobile in a sheer tank dress. The photos are gross/hilarious. In other LeAnn news, I was looking through her Twitter to find some inspiration. What I found instead a Babble report that LeAnn was tweet-freaking about. Allegedly, Brandi Glanville was tweeting about some "threatening email" from her ex, Eddie Cibrian, all about the holiday arrangements of Mason and Jake. Brandi claimed that Eddie "blames" her for the cancellation of The Playboy Club and Eddie's going to "punish her" by taking the kids for Christmas. The exact tweet: "Any divorce lawyers wanna give me some advice on a threatening email? It's like he is punishing me cuz he lost his job! It's always nice to be threated [sic] with jail time and loss of custody for wanting me kids to be with their only three cousins for Christmas. Bully!" LeAnn went on her Twitter to scream "LIES AS USUAL" and "First I’ve seen about emails I never sent. It’s amusing, that’s all." When asked by Babble about who actually has the kids for Christmas, LeAnn wrote this:
[From LeAnn's Twitter] Is that a non-denial denial? Brandi didn't say that LeAnn emailed, she said that Eddie emailed. This shouldn't be LeAnn's fight, and she's gotten on her high horse to pontificate on a public forum about how Brandi shouldn't communicate on a public forum. LeAnn Rimes: A Clusterf–k of Crazy Since 2008. Oh, and I just saw that right after LeAnn got on her high horse (operative word: HORSE), she went on to tweet specifically about Eddie and Brandi’s holiday custody arrangement. On a public forum. |
Angelina Jolie’s 60 Minutes interview: “I find the tabloids quite shallow” Posted: 28 Nov 2011 06:20 AM PST Did you guys watch Angelina's 60 Minutes interview last night? We previewed it last week, when 60 Minutes released what turns out to be the most idiotic clips from the interview. They pushed back 60 Minutes for a football game, but I did see it, and OMG it was the worst. Not Angelina – she was fine. She was candid, lucid, forth-right and interesting. The worst was the dude interviewing her, Bob Simon, who wasn't capable of even a passing interest in researching his subject, and who seemed to think it was 2003. How many more questions is Angelina going to get about what she was like in 1998? Whenever Angelina opened up and said something newsworthy, it happened accidentally because Bob Simon wasn't paying a bit of attention. He almost laughed at her when she got choked up talking about her mother. He actually made me miss certified-Brangeloonie Ann Curry and her sycophantic interview style. The worst part was when Bob Simon referenced Jolie's work with the UNHCR "over the past few years," basically denigrating and glossing over her work in lieu of asking her more questions about her drug usage 12 years ago – like she hasn't been a UN ambassador for a decade, like she hasn't been awarded for her work. Anyway, here's the full video interview and some excerpts:
[Via People Magazine] What's also interesting is that 60 Minutes didn't even air the two most interesting parts of the interview, leaving these as "web exclusives". In the first clip, Angelina talks in more detail than ever before about her sketchy relationship with her sketchy father, and gives the specific timeline for their tenuous reconciliation: And in this clip, Angelina talks more about how she doesn't think she'll have a career in 10-20 years. What's interesting is that she talks about her mother dying young, and you get the feeling that Angelina thinks she'll be going early too: |
Pippa Middleton got $600,000 for her party-planning and hostessing book Posted: 28 Nov 2011 06:19 AM PST A month ago, the rumors began. Pippa Middleton was allegedly shopping a book around to various publishers. Was it a tell-all memoir, perhaps? Something like The Other Waity: Pippa's Story? Or My Sister Married a Prince And All I Got Was An Ass Made of Lies? No and no. Pippa was shopping a "party planning" book – all about how to be a hostess and how to throw great parties. When the rumors first came out, British snobs were like, "HOW GAUCHE" and "What do you expect from the dreaded middle class?" Pippa's family and the royal family might have even tried to get Pippa to withdraw her book idea, but now there's some great news – Pippa didn't back down! She got her book deal. And then some.
[From The Mail] I think it's a great idea too. For one, I seriously doubt Kate is all that pleased with it, and it will probably piss off the royal family and it will be seen as Pippa "cashing in" on her royal connections. That's what's great about it! Pippa SHOULD do her own thing and not just wait around for Kate to fix her up with some titled aristocrat. Pippa doesn't want to WAIT. Pippa wants to make it happen for herself. And now she's got her own money to make it happen – good for her. By the way, does anyone else think that this move is designed to alert the UK snobs that Pippa doesn't need them anyway? Like, now that Pippa is doing a book and she'll be making her own party-planning and publishing fortune, the aristocrats might not want to get near her. Which is fine – now I want Pippa to find some dude who is new-money wealthy and self-made too. That'll show the snobs. |
Bruce Willis takes all of his girls to Paris for Tallulah’s debutante ball Posted: 28 Nov 2011 06:10 AM PST Above is a photo Rumer Willis tweeted from Paris – Rumer and her sister Scout were in Paris with their father, Bruce Willis, for the youngest Willis girl's "coming out". "Coming out" meaning the old-fashioned "coming out as a debutante." I've only known and liked one debutante in my life – cotillions sound like fun, but then you realize how much g–damn work goes into being a debutante, and really, no thanks. Anyway, Tallulah Willis, age 17, had her coming out at Le Bal des Débutantes at the Hotel Crillon – it's an annual event, and one of the most prestigious debutante balls in the world. Scout had her “coming out” a few years ago too. Tallulah is the one in the black and sparkly dress. I'm honestly and truly not trying to be mean, but… when did Rumer become the prettiest Willis girl? When did that happen?!?
[From People] Demi Moore was not at the event – according to reports, she was licking her wounds in Hawaii. I understand that Demi probably didn't want to pull focus from Scout on her big debutante weekend, but still – it would have been nice if Demi had found a way to be a part of daughter's big event. As it was, Bruce and his preggo wife Emma did all of the parent stuff, which apparently included a big shopping spree in Paris. Bruce seems like such a cool dad, right? Here are some photos of Bruce and his girls in Paris: Header photo courtesy of Rumer's Twitter. Additional pics by WENN & Pacific Coast News. |
Jennifer Lopez took her kids and her boy-toy Casper Smart to Hawaii Posted: 28 Nov 2011 06:00 AM PST As I've said before, I don't understand why Jennifer Lopez is slumming it with her 24-year-old backup dancer, Casper Smart. It would be one thing if he was really pretty – that, I might understand. Every girl likes to look at pretty things. But Casper is not pretty. He has a good body and he can dance and… that's about it. Which means THAT is how low Jennifer has set the bar. Good body and a good dancer – what is this, ninth grade?! Anyway, Jennifer took her kids and her boy-toy to Hawaii for some rest and relaxation. We don't have the photos – you can see some here and here. Casper is just… how could you want to hit that? I don't understand!
[From Us Weekly] It's already been pointed out that Jennifer claimed she wasn't going to introduce her kids to any boyfriends unless it got serious. Does this mean that it's "serious" with Casper and Jennifer? Have they even had time to get "serious"? They've been dating for what? A month or two? So, basically, Max and Emme are going to have lots of "uncles" for a while OR Jennifer is going to end up marrying another g–damn backup dancer. COME ON J.LO. You can do better than this, on all fronts. |
