Jessica Biel is ready to have a baby?


Jessica Biel is reportedly ready to start a family with Justin Timberlake.
The 'Total Recall' actress, who married the 'Not a Bad Thing' hitmaker in a lavish ceremony in Italy in October 2012, wants to get pregnant with their first child as quickly as possible.
A source told the US edition of OK magazine: "They've been trying to conceive for a couple of months now, and she told Justin she's going to see a fertility expert."
The insider added: "She has no problem using technology, if that's what it will take to have a baby and stick this marriage out."
The 33-year-old singer often plans "romantic date nights" for his 32-year-old wife, who is said to have been hesitant to become a mother until recently as she wanted to focus on her career and enjoying being newlyweds.
Earlier this year, Justin's grandmother, Sadie Bomar, insisted he is ready to become a father.
She said: "Justin's ready. They're both very busy, and having a baby will just have to come when the good Lord says it should."
She later added: "Justin has wanted to have children all his life. If it were up to him, they'd have a baby tomorrow."

Jennifer Lawrence splits from Nicholas Hoult


Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult have reportedly split up again.
The on-again, off-again couple agreed to part ways recently because of their busy schedules.
A source told E! News that their break-up "was very amicable."
The insider added: "They spent a lot of time apart because of work and it was difficult on their relationship."
The 'Hunger Games' actress, 23, and Nicholas, 24, split in January 2013 after two years together, but reunited last summer after filming the new 'X-Men' movie together.
The Oscar-winning beauty recently admitted she wasn't ready to settle down with the British actor, who was spotted having lunch with Kristen Stewart at Daiwa in Tsukiji Fish Market in Los Angeles on Thursday (31.07.14), but she insisted she trusted him completely.
Asked about rumours they were engaged, she told Marie Claire magazine: "We're so young that it would almost be like if we lived in the same city, what would happen? We'd be living together.
"At least this way he's in the same boat as I am: We can go out and have our own lives and know that we have each other."
She added: "When we're busy, we agree to mutually ignore each other. Not completely, but neither of us gets mad when the other doesn't text back or call. Life's super busy. Obviously you know what they're doing, and you trust them."

Julia Roberts is ‘really proud’ of herself


Julia Roberts is "really proud" of herself for being a working mother.
The 'Normal Heart' star, who has nine-year-old twins, Hazel and Phinneaus, and seven-year-old son Henry with husband Danny Moder, tries to spend as much time as possible with her family and admits she still found it "very difficult" to leave them to work on 'August: Osage County' last year.
She said: "It was a decision that was very difficult to make."
The actress usually only works on one film per year so she can be a hands-on mother.
But she said: "I'm really proud of what I've accomplished in my career. By [the time I had children] I felt I had really earned staying home with my kids and being with my family."
Asked if her children realise that she is famous, the 46-year-old star also told the 'TODAY' show: "I think they have a firm understanding that they are children of parents in show business.
"When 'Mirror Mirror' came out, all of the kids in their class saw it and I wouldn't let them see it. So they felt that they were being penalised for being my children."
But her children do get to enjoy some perks of her fame, as she plans to let them use her Best Actress Oscar statue, which she won for her performance in 'Erin Brockovich' in 2001, to play with their Barbie dolls when she eventually brings it home.
She said: "The Oscar is still in my sister's apartment... I'm gonna go get it and take it home. It can be Ken's competition for Barbie's affection."

Cameron Diaz is Benji’s Madden’s muse


Benji Madden admits Cameron Diaz is his muse.
The 35-year-old rocker, who started dating 'The Other Woman' actress earlier this year, says she inspires him to be the best person he can be and makes him "really happy."
The Good Charlotte guitarist told PEOPLE.com: "I'm really happy right now."
Asked how his relationship with the actress has affected his music, Benji added: "It's the same for any man, no matter what they do. It drives you. All people, I think, react the same way to the same situations ... like we were saying with Joel being a father ... we all want to be the best we can be."
A source recently claimed the musician has "already discussed marriage" with his 41-year-old girlfriend.
The insider said: "It's early, but they have talked about marriage.
"Benji spends so much time at Cameron's that it seems he now kind of lives there. They look very happy together ... Cameron hasn't looked this happy for years."
Meanwhile, Benji's twin brother, Joel Madden, also says that his love for wife Nicole Richie and their children, Harlow, six, and Sparrow, four, has influenced his music.
He said: "I think it affects your life, and that affects your music. Ultimately, my life revolves around my family. Everything I do is for them. I want my family to be happy. And so that has been a life change over the last few years."

Rob Kardashian feels abandoned by Lamar Odom


Rob Kardashian reportedly feels abandoned by Lamar Odom.
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star, who is rumoured to be battling a number of issues, including depression, after gaining 50 pounds, allegedly started spiralling out of control when his sister Khloé Kardashian's estranged husband moved out of the home the trio shared in Tarzana, California last year, amid rumours he had a drug problem and was cheating on Khloé.
A source told gossip website TMZ.com that the 27-year-old star went into a tailspin because he idolised the 34-year-old basketball player and thought Lamar was the only person who measured up to his late father, Robert Kardashian, who died of cancer in 2003.
The insider said that Rob has never really got over his dad's death, but thrived when he moved in with Khloé and Lamar after they got married in 2009, as the athlete inspired him to stay fit and start his own sock company.
Khloé, who filed for divorce from Lamar in December, admitted on her family's reality TV series that Rob's troubles were triggered by the "dark things" that happened in her former marital home.
Discussing the matter in a a clip for the next episode, she said: "Rob has said, '[Living with Khloé and Lamar] was so dark and it made me do dark things.' "
She added: "Only Rob and Lamar and I know what went on in that house. I'm a nurturer and I want to protect everyone. I wasn't there to protect Rob. I wasn't even there to protect myself. No one can make me not feel guilty."

Cheryl Cole’s ‘natural’ insults to Simon Cowell


Cheryl Cole says her insults to Simon Cowell "come out naturally".
The 31-year-old pop star, who has returned to 'The X Factor' judging panel this year along with Simon, claims the music mogul so often annoys her she can't help but bite back with insults of her own.
Simon, 54, and Cheryl have always enjoyed playful jesting on the show and the music mogul admits his co-star is "easy to wind up".
Speaking at the London auditions for the new series at Wembley Arena today (01.08.14), Cheryl told BANG Showbiz: "They just come out naturally. It's so easy because he's so rude sometimes, they just come out naturally. I don't even have to have them ready!"
But there'll be no bickering between the 'Crazy Stupid Love' hitmaker and new judge Mel B, as Simon has rubbished talk of a female feud on the judging panel.
He said: "This whole thing about girls falling out or whatever, that's not happening. I mean everyone we put on the show is extremely sensible - they put the hours in, find stars, work with the talent."
Cheryl also weighed in on her relationship with the former Spice Girl, revealing they've got on like a house on fire.
She enthused: "We've both been in girl bands, we've got great camaraderie and we sometimes say the same thing at the same time - it's weird!"
The pop star - who discovered 'X Factor' winners Alexandra Burke and Joe McElderry during her first stint on the show from 2008 to 2010 - is determined to find another winning star this year, but wants to ensure they are a "fresh" talent.
She explained: "People always say we're looking for the next One Direction or Olly Murs, but I'm not looking for that. I'm looking for somebody that's fresh that we haven't got in the industry at the moment."

Simon Cowell tips Cheryl Cole for motherhood


Simon Cowell has tipped Cheryl Cole for motherhood.
The 'X Factor' star foresees his fellow reality show judge - who secretly wed French restaurateur Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini last month - becoming a parent in the near future.
Quizzed if he and Cheryl have discussed kids, he said: "I have actually, yeah. I think she's next. Louis [Walsh, fellow co-star] will be last. I wouldn't be surprised if she did."
Simon also revealed that he has given the 31-year-old beauty and her new husband a gift to mark their nuptials in July.
Asked if he's bought a present for the couple, he added: "Yes I did, I can't remember, a champagne bucket or something."
The 54-year-old music mogul welcomed his first child, son Eric, with girlfriend Lauren Silverman in February and he has found fatherhood an easier adjustment than he expected.
Speaking at the London auditions of 'The X Factor' at Wembley Arena today (01.08.14), he told BANG Showbiz: "It's not that difficult - if you've got a good [partner], who I've got, it's a lot of fun. It's easier than I thought."
Meanwhile, newlywed Cheryl revealed that she's on cloud nine following her recent marriage and pop success after her new single 'Crazy Stupid Love' topped the UK singles chart last week.
She gushed: "I'm really happy. I've had a great couple of weeks, I've had a number one record, the sun's shining - I couldn't ask for more to be honest."

Ray Winstone had ‘wild’ night out with Sean Penn


Ray Winstone had a "wild" night out with Sean Penn.
The 57-year-old actor enjoyed working with the 54-year-old hunk in the upcoming thriller 'The Gunman', but he admits that wasn't the first time they had met as they'd hit it off 10 years ago on a boozy night out.
Speaking to Loaded magazine, he said: "I met Sean probably for the first time 10 years ago and had a night out with him, one of the wild ones. And we had a terrific night together. We had a drink, you know - we were out. He drinks like an Irishman or an Englishman - he knows how to have a booze, you know."
However, the veteran actor insists his partying days are well and truly behind him.
He explained: "You go to work and you go home and every now and then you'll have a beer.
"When I worked with [Sean] on 'The Gunman', you know, we'd have a quick beer or something, but most of the time he was on set all day long, every day, and he was training, keeping himself in shape - he looks magnificent for his age."
Meanwhile, in a time when so many stars are finding themselves in rehab due to alcohol addiction, Ray believes it's crucial that actors and actresses stay sober because too much booze can lead to "career suicide."
He added: "When you're in work mode, you don't [drink alcohol]. Maybe when you were 25 you could do that, but it's career suicide if you start on the booze and you can't do your job properly."

Javier Bardem hits back at anti-Semitic claims


Javier Bardem has been forced to deny accusations he is anti-Semitic.
The 45-year-old actor was criticised after he, his wife Penelope Cruz, director Pedro Almodovar and a number of professionals from the Spanish film industry signed an open letter calling the Israeli airstrikes on Gaza "genocide" but Javier insisted he has "respect" for the people of Israel.
He said in a statement: "My signature was solely meant as a plea for peace. Destruction and hatred only generate more hatred and destruction."
Replying to accusations he is anti-Semitic, Javier said: "While I was critical of the Israeli military response, I have great respect for the people of Israel and deep compassion for their losses. I am now being labeled by some as anti-Semitic, as is my wife - which is the antithesis of who we are as human beings. We detest anti-Semitism as much as we detest the horrible and painful consequences of war."
Javier then issued a plea for peace in Gaza.
He said: "I was raised to be against any act of violence, and the consequent suffering of humanity for it, regardless of religions, ethnicities and borders. Too many innocent Palestinian mothers have lost their children to this conflict. Too many innocent Israeli mothers share the same grief. There should not be any political reason that can justify such enormous pain on both sides. It's my hope that leaders involved in this complicated struggle will heed the call of United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, 'In the name of humanity, the violence must stop.' "

PETA slams Kim Kardashian over dolphin ride


PETA have slammed Kim Kardashian over her dolphin ride in Mexico.
The reality star has come under fire from PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) who called Kim "intrusive" and "dangerous" for swimming with dolphins at Vallarta Adventures in Puerto Vallarta.
Earlier this week (29.07.14) the mother of one posted a video on Instagram of herself and her jewellery designer friend, Kristen Gipson, taking part in a double dolphin ride. She captioned the film: "Double dolphin ride with @kristennoelgipson Thank you Vallarta Adventures for teaching us so much! Can't wait to show my daughter the pics of her swimming with dolphins & kissing a sea lion when she gets older! #ThanksForTheMemories #Mexico (sic)"
Now the Senior Vice President of PETA, Lisa Lange has criticised the star for supporting the "invasive" aquatic centre.
Speaking to RadarOnline.com Lisa said: "Kim is free to leave the pool, but for the dolphins, it's a lifetime sentence.
"Touch tanks and 'swim-with' programs allow the public to pet, kiss, or even 'ride' dolphins. Such programs invade the animals' already diminished worlds and are intrusive, dangerous, and stressful for the animals as well as for human participants."
It's not the first time the brunette beauty has been attacked by PETA. In 2012, the 33-year-old TV personality has a bag of flour thrown at her because she refused to stop wearing fur.
At the time Kim managed to find the situation funny as she joked: "That probably is the craziest, unexpected, weirdest thing that ever happened to me
"Like I said to my make-up artist, I wanted more powder and that's a whole lot of translucent powder right there."

Kerry Washington named baby after grandmother


Kerry Washington named her baby after her grandmother.
During an appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' on Thursday (31.07.14), Kerry revealed to Jimmy that she had heard he and wife Molly McNearney named their daughter Jane after his grandmother and remarked "Mine is too," referring to her own daughter and granny, both called Isabelle.
Jimmy said: "Your baby's name is Isabelle and mine is Jane. We should swap them and see if our families notice!"
Kerry - who married Isabelle's father Nnamdi Asomugha earlier this year - also thanked the chat show host for sending her some of her favourite foods while she was pregnant.
She said: "You did something very kind last time I came [in February]. There's nothing more kind to do for a pregnant lady than [to give her] a box full of frozen deliciousness. It was amazing!"
And Kerry had high praise for President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle, saying: "He and his amazing wife, they're just genuine, authentic, fantastic people who are trying to do their best for the country. They're awesome!"

Simon Cowell gives Cheryl’s husband seal of approval


Simon Cowell says Cheryl Cole is the happiest he's ever seen her.
The 54-year-old music mogul is currently filming the latest series of the UK 'X Factor' alongside the 'Crazy Stupid Love' hitmaker and says her recent surprise wedding to husband Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini is responsible for her happiness.
He tweeted: "Cheryl is the happiest I have ever seen her. Her new husband is a great guy. [sic]"
Cheryl - who wed in a secret ceremony last month, just three months after she and Jean-Bernard started dating - was famously booted off the American version of 'The X Factor' by Simon in 2011, but she insists the pair are good friends again.
Talking about their friendship, she told Greg James on BBC Radio 1: "[It's] good, like we've never been away, to be honest.
"I mean, obviously we don't agree on everything but that's how our relationship is."
The pair are joined on the judging panel by veteran Louis Walsh and ex-Spice Girl, Mel B, who has impressed Simon with her work ethic.
He tweeted: "Mel B is a total star. She flew in from New York last night.
"No sleep. And totally on it. She is a revelation. [sic]"
