Brad Pitt doesn’t want his daughters to get tattoos


Angelina Jolie has revealed Brad Pitt's anxiety over their children getting tattoos.
The 'Unbroken' director has admitted that her husband was left feeling uneasy when their daughters, Vivienne, six, Shiloh, eight and Zahara, nine, asked if they could get some ink themselves.
Angelina - who has various tattoos herself - explained: "They're already asking me about tattoos. How do I say no? It's especially hard for dads and girls.
"For some reason men get a little more sensitive when the daughter gets a tattoo. And Brad thinks the girls can do no wrong. He's mush in their hands."
However, Angelina, 39, and Brad, 50, - who are also parents to three boys, six-year-old Knox, 11-year-old Pax and Maddox, 13 - both agree that their children should pursue a different careers to their own.
She told Radio Times magazine: "We've always said, if they want to act, we won't let them only act, because it's not enough. They'll have to find a real job at the same time. But I'm hoping that when they see all the other things in the world, they'll be inspired to be writers, politicians, activists.
"They are very individual people. So I imagine they're not going to follow their mum and dad."

Beyonce pays for Solange’s honeymoon


Beyonce splashed out $140,000 on Solange Knowles' honeymoon.
The 'Crazy in Love' hitmaker agreed to foot the bill for her sister and Alan Ferguson's lavish post-wedding holiday to Trancoso in Brazil, and as well as paying for the $1,100-a-night Gulab Mahal villa - which boasts its own meditation area and "massive" bed - at the UXUA Casa Hotel & Spa, she also through in a string of extras as a way of making amends for Solange's falling out with her husband Jay Z earlier this year.
A source heat magazine: "Beyonce also gifted Solange private first-class travel, a chartered boat tour and personally-catered meals.
"It was her way of saying 'I'm sorry' after all the bad blood between Jay and Solange. And, of course, she's thrilled her sister got the wedding and man of her dreams.
"She wants the whole family to move on to happier times."
As well as paying for the honeymoon, it was recently revealed Beyonce saved the day at the couple's wedding last month after Solange suffered an allergic reaction to seafood.
The bride's mother, Tina, said: "[Solange] went through the wedding and the sit-down dinner and she was just fine, and then they had a second line in the streets of New Orleans and she was dancing so hard, I think she just got overheated. And the seafood - she had a reaction to it. So her face broke out in welts."
The 28-year-old bride disappeared from the festivities for two hours, whilst Beyonce gave her an allergy tablet.
Tina explained: "[Beyonce] took her back to the hotel and gave her Benadryl and in two hours she showed up at the reception and did the dance with her son and just had a ball."

Lily Allen gives up alcohol


Lily Allen has given up drinking.
The 'Not Fair' hitmaker - who has daughters Ethel, two, and 22-month-old Marnie, with husband Sam Cooper - wants to "grow up" but admits socialising without alcohol is difficult.
Speaking to the new issue of Grazia magazine, the 29-year-old singer said: "I haven't had a drink for a month. It's been hard not drinking but I'm trying to grow up. Finally."
The 'Air Balloon' singer has previously admitted Sam - who she met in 2009 - helped her curb her wild partying.
She has said: "I never used to remember. I used to wake up and wonder what happened last night. I just couldn't remember.
"Then Sam came along and he said, 'I really fancy you and I want to be with you.' I said to him, 'If I give all this stuff up, I need to know you are going to make a commitment to me and you'll look after me because this is how I cope.' "
Lily has also admitted in the past she would be a "hypocrite" if she told her daughters not to drink.
She said: "I can't really do anything but be there for them.
"People are going to do what they want to do, quite rightly. They'll say, 'You're a hypocrite. You went an experiment and you said it was a right laugh so what do you mean I can't?'
"But I've seen so much of it growing up and I've seen people really lose the plot and die."

Pippa Middleton: Kim Kardashian West’s butt is better


Pippa Middleton has admitted her butt is "not comparable" to Kim Kardashian West's derriere.
The sister of the Duchess of Cambridge - whose posterior shot to fame when she wore a tight-fitting bridesmaids dress at Duchess Catherine and Prince William's wedding in 2011 - insists her backside is not in the same league as the US reality TV star's and has tipped her to be crowned Rear of the Year.
In an article written for political weekly magazine The Spectator, Pippa explains: "The 'Rear of 2014' award undoubtedly goes to Kim Kardashian, after her posterior exploded all over the internet last month.
"I must say that mine -- though it has enjoyed fleeting fame -- is not comparable. But the Kim butt story did make me pause.
"What is it with this American booty culture? It seems to me to be a form of obsession."
Her comments come after Kim posed naked and covered in baby oil for Paper magazine last month, including one shot in which she had a champagne glass perched on her posterior, in an attempt to "break the internet", but Pippa thinks there are better campaigns the 34-year-old stunner could have tried out.
The 31-year-old brunette wrote: "Kim's aim, apparently, was to break the internet, but I'm not sure she's going the right way about it.
But Pippa - whose sister, Catherine, has 16-month-old son Prince George - did beat Kim to one award this year as in July she was crowned Auntie of the Year, beating off strong competition from the 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star, Victoria Beckham and Beyonce Knowles.

Cuba Gooding Jr. to play O.J. Simpson

Kate Hudson and Matt Bellamy get Martin and Paltrow advice


Kate Hudson and Matt Bellamy sought split advice from Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow.
The showbiz power couple confirmed this week they have called off their engagement after being separated for "some time", and they reportedly held meetings with the Coldplay frontman and the 'Iron Man 3' actress - who "consciously uncoupled" earlier this year - to get advice about parting in the public eye.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Matt and Kate modelled their separation on Chris and Gwyneth. They had several individual meetings with both, seeking advice on how to handle the split plus keep things as normal as possible for their kids.
"They will remain close friends."
The blonde stunner and the 36-year-old singer - who started dating in 2010 and got engaged just a year later - plan to remain "close friends" and are "committed" to raising their son, three-year-old Bingham.
Her representative said in a statement: "Kate and Matt have been separated for some time now.
"Despite this, they remain very close friends and committed co-parents."
While the pair's split has only just been confirmed, the 35-year-old beauty has already been romantically linked to dancer Derek Hough, 29 - who was previously linked to Cheryl Fernandez-Versini following her separation from Ashley Cole - after they were spotted at a Los Angeles restaurant together last weekend.
Kate - who also has son Ryder, 10, from her previous marriage to Chris Robinson - and Derek have known each other for three years and last year she revealed he had been teaching her ballroom dancing.
Speaking at the time, she said: "My heart is really in contemporary jazz, but lately I've been ballroom dancing with Derek Hough. It's been a real blast."

Scarlett Johansson’s breastfeeding work outs


Scarlett Johansson thinks breastfeeding is the "best way to get back in shape" after giving birth.
The 30-year-old actress gave birth to her first child, Rose Dorothy, with her husband Romain Dauriac in September and she has relished the responsibilities that come with having a baby to look after, and admits she "loves" everything about taking care of her daughter - including changing her nappy.
Speaking about breastfeeding, she said: "It's the best way to get back in shape.
"[I do] the whole bit. I'm nursing and I love it."
But the 'Captain America' star also admitted she is still finding motherhood "exhausting", despite enjoying spending time with her little one and feeling "overwhelmed" by all the love she has to give to her.
While being interviewed by Barbara Walters for her annual TV special, 'The 10 Most Fascinating People of 2014', Scarlett added: "It's wonderful. It's very, very magical -- and exhausting.
"The love is just unbelievable. It's very overwhelming."
Scarlett recently admitted she was learning to really appreciate sleeping all the way through the night since having a baby.
She said: "It's exhausting in the most wonderful way. I never thought how much sleeping through the night would mean to me.
"I still lack experience. Right now I'm just trying to manage. You have to first, how should I put it, learn the ropes."

Tori Spelling: My marriage is ‘stronger than ever’


Tori Spelling insists she and her cheating husband Dean McDermott are "stronger than ever".
The 41-year-old reality TV star says the couple are in a "really great place" despite the 48-year-old actor cheating on her late last year, and he insists they are now in a "healthier relationship" because his antics made them realise they needed to "deal" with aspects of their marriage which they have now resolved.
She said: "We can only go day by day, because, you know, we are working on things. Today, we're stronger than ever. We're really great. We're in a really great place."
Dean - who married Tori in 2006 - added: "I've said it before - it's unfortunate that these events took place to get us where we are today, because today we're stronger and more in love than ever.
"We have a healthier relationship because of it, we're communicating, we're working on ourselves.
"It unfortunately took that - especially for me - to sit me down and go, 'You need to deal with some things.' "
Tori admitted she is proud of their reality TV show 'True Tori' and insisted it is not staged because people get to see what is really going on in their lives.
Speaking on 'Access Hollywood Live' on Tuesday (09.12.14), she added: "Watching other shows, I can see what's produced, because I'm in the thick of it. I'm happy to say that ours is completely legit.
"People might say at times it's too heavy, but it's what's really going on. We're not perfect - no couple is."
This comes after the former '90210' star admitted she would like to carry on with the programme even if Dean leaves the Lifetime show after he announced plans to do so last month.

Katherine Heigl’s daughters won’t stop talking


Katherine Heigl's daughters won't stop talking.
The 36-year-old star says her youngsters, Naleigh, six, and two-year-old Adalaide, are always chatting about something, and joked she hears the word "no" about "100 times a day".
Speaking about Adalaide's penchant for prattling, she said: "[She] won't stop talking.
"She goes, 'No, no, no.' I know it's so cliché, but I hear that word 100 times a day. It's literally what is happening every day."
The 'Knocked Up' actress - who is married to singer Josh Kelley, with whom she has her two adopted daughters - also joked their little one Naleigh hasn't stopped chatting since the day she learned how to speak.
Katherine added to PEOPLE magazine: "[She] started talking like gangbusters and hasn't stopped talking for five years. Except to sleep at night."
The quartet are set to spend the festive season at home in Utah and Katherine admits she doesn't enjoy travelling too far away at any time because she is a "bad flier".
The blonde star - who is set to embark on a holiday to Mexico with her family in the near future - said: "[We're] keeping it chill and mellow in our homes in Utah.
"I try to go the least farthest possible."
