Tamara Ecclestone loves being a mum


Tamara Ecclestone loves being a "hands-on mum".
The 30-year-old socialite gave birth to daughter Sophia four months ago and she is thoroughly embracing everything that motherhood has thrown at her.
Tamara - who is married to Jay Rutland - said: "I love being a hands-on mum.
"I made a decision to be a mum who'd raise my baby with the support of my family and Jay.
"I was there for the first times Sophia rolled over, smiled and giggled in her sleep. There are times we do have help from the nanny, but they're in the minority."
While Tamara's Formula 1 boss father Bernie Ecclestone is now worth £4.2 billion, she insists he didn't spoil her and sister Petra too much when they were younger, and she intends to follow his example with Sophia.
She added to Mother & Baby magazine: "It's important not to give a child everything they want when they want it - my parents would give us something if we did a chore or walked the dog."
Tamara took to Instagram to tell her fans she had become a mother for the first time in March by posting an adorable snap of her looking lovingly at her newborn daughter from her hospital bed.
She captioned the image: "Welcome to the world Sophia, our beautiful baby girl, born yesterday 6lb 9oz. Proudest day of our lives, never felt love like this. X (sic)"

Kellan Lutz wants Angelina Jolie in The Expendabelles


Kellan Lutz wants Angelina Jolie to star in 'The Expendabelles'.
The 29-year-old actor, who plays John Smilee in 'The Expendables 3', is very excited there is a female version of the action film franchise in the works and he would love to see the 39-year-old actress, Cate Blanchett, Cameron Diaz and Jessica Biel appear in the project.
When asked who he would like to see star in 'The Expendabelles' at the world premiere of 'The Expendables 3' in central London on Monday night (04.08.14), Kellan told BANG Showbiz: "Cate Blanchett, Angelina Jolie, Cameron Diaz, Jessica Biel ... I mean there's just so many, that could be in there."
Kellan got to share the screen with an array of legendary Hollywood actors in 'The Expendables 3', such as Sylvester Stallone, Antonio Banderas, Wesley Snipes, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mel Gibson, and Harrison Ford, and he particularly liked spending time with Sylvester and Jason Statham.
He added: "I love working with Sly but you know, Wesley Snipes and Antonio Banderas ... they are just freaking studs, like they're very fun to work with, very hilarious and Jason Statham's just a badass so it's very fun to hang out with Transporter and Crank, you know, he's just a dude."
Kellan was joined on the red carpet by a host of his co-stars including Sylvester, Wesley, Antonio and Jason.
Other guests at the premiere included chat show host Jonathan Ross, comedian Jack Whitehall, boxer David Haye and actor Vinnie Jones.

Tallulah Willis’ body dysmorphia ‘struggles’


Tallulah Willis "struggled" with body dysmorphia when she was younger.
The 20-year-old blogger - who is the youngest daughter of former Hollywood couple Bruce Willis and Demi Moore - was diagnosed with the condition when she was 13, meaning she has a distorted view of her own appearance, and claims she always felt "ugly" because of gossip written about her family.
Stripping to her underwear for a StyleLikeU video interview, she said: "I struggled a lot when I was younger.
"Like I'm diagnosed with body dysmorphia with reading those stupid f***ing tabloids when I was like 13 and feeling like I was ugly, like always. I believed the strangers more than the people who loved me because why would the people who love me be honest?"
Tallulah admits she began dressing more provocatively in "denim short shorts and push-up bras" and lost a worrying amount of weight, but her physical transformation left her feeling worse than ever.
She added: "That made me start to dress showing off my boobs and my butt and those things that I was getting attention for.
"I was trapped in this body. I started starving myself and losing a bunch of weight and I got down to like 95 pounds. When I lost my curves and when my boobs shrivelled up into like nothing and I had no shape. It put me in even more of a cage."

Chris Pratt’s Halloween hope for Guardians of the Galaxy


Chris Pratt thinks 'Guardians of the Galaxy' will inspire the number one Halloween costume this year.
The 35-year-old actor - who plays Peter Quill in the new superhero blockbuster - is confident that younger viewers will love gun-wielding talking raccoon Rocket so much, they will all want to dress as him when the spooky holiday comes around on October 31.
He told MTV News: "I think there are going to be a lot of people dressed up as Rocket this Halloween, a lot of kids."
The 'Parks and Recreation' actor believes that, though Rocket is essentially there for comic relief, the creature's uniqueness also contributes to "dramatic reality" within the movie.
"This thing, as funny as it is to have a little talking raccoon with a machine gun running around being an a-hole, what really carries you through is the dramatic reality that there's nothing else in the universe like him."
Chris is astonished by the quality of the computer-generated imagery (CGI) that has been used in the movie because it is so realistic.
He also said: "This is CG unlike anything that I've ever seen before, it's so real."

Kelly Osbourne’s nude shoot


Kelly Osbourne "s**t herself" when she read the brief for a recent magazine photoshoot.
The 'Fashion Police' host was "honoured" to be approached by Herring&Herring to be photographed by Dimitri Scheblanov and Jesper Carlsen but was stunned to learn they wanted to picture her surrounded by naked people.
She said: "When I was first approached by Herring&Herring with the opportunity to work with two of my favorite photographers, Dimitri Scheblanov and Jesper Carlsen, I automatically said yes. I felt so honored. About two weeks later, I received the final concept and story board sent over to me and I s**t myself because it was a photoshoot where everybody was to be naked except me."
Kelly admits she was most concerned that she wouldn't be able to stop "staring" at the models' genitals and initially got the giggles when she stepped on set.
She added on her blog: "I'm not one to go back on my word so I took sometime to mentally prepare for an awkward shoot. What if I got the giggles? What if someone had an awkward-looking private part that I couldn't stop staring at? But knowing who I was working with I took a leap of faith.
"The day of the shoot I walked in sweating with nerves. I sat down to start hair and make-up and just as I had feared got a case of the giggles."
However, the 29-year-old star eventually realised she was being "ridiculous" and learned a lot from the shoot.
She said: "But after Dimitri and Jesper were so welcoming and introduced me to all of the models, I suddenly realized how ridiculous I was being ... as it takes a brave and confident woman who in my eyes must be so comfortable with their body to stand in front of a room full of people they don't know, in the name of art.
"This experience went from terrifying to inspirational and gave me a whole new perspective and appreciation for self-confidence."

Megan Fox never has sex


Megan Fox claims she and Brian Austin Green never have sex.
The 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' actress admits that between working commitments and raising their sons Noah, 22 months, and Bodhi, five months, she and her spouse - who also has 12-year-old son Kassius from a previous relationship - rarely have time for one another.
She told 'Entertainment Tonight': "Brian doesn't get any intimacy whatsoever."
Perhaps Brian, 41, hasn't been making his 28-year-old wife - who plays April O'Neil' in 'TMNT' - laugh recently as she has also admitted to finding humour attractive and says that is why Michelangelo was always her favourite of the turtles.
Asked why she liked him best, she told 'Access Hollywood': "Mikey is funny. Funny makes you drop your panties. That's the truth!"
Megan was delighted to join the movie but was very "nervous" about what fans would think, though having seen the finished film, she now thinks they'll be delighted.
She said: "I was really excited. I was also nervous, obviously because you want the fans to be happy. You don't want to destroy anyone's childhood, especially my own.
"I was scared, but I've seen it and I think we did a really good job. I think it's amazing, super funny, so I'm proud."

Daniel Radcliffe wants Sharknado role


Daniel Radcliffe wants to star in 'Sharknado 3'.
The 'Harry Potter' actor is a big fan of the cult TV movie franchise and would be delighted to make a cameo appearance in the next film - but only if his character meets a grizzly end.
A source told the New York Daily News newspaper's Confidenti@l column: "Ian [Ziering] was backstage at the 'Today' show, and he asked Daniel Radcliffe if he would be in it.
"Daniel said he loved the film and said he would do it if they found an amazing way for him to die."
Ian's 'Sharknado' co-star Tara Reid recently admitted she only took on a role in the first movie - which sees a freak hurricane swamp Los Angeles with hundreds of deadly sharks terrorising its residents - as a"joke" and was stunned by its popularity.
She said: "I'm just as stunned as everyone else. Come on, I did it as a joke! I didn't even think anyone was going to see it.
"And then what happened has never happened before on any movie. Even now, you thought the buzz was going to stop about 'Sharknado', but it just keeps going."

Jon Hamm reveals career doubts


Jon Hamm used to doubt whether he'd ever make it in showbiz.
The 43-year-old actor - who is most famous for playing the role of Don Draper on AMC show 'Mad Men' - says the death of his mother when he was just 10 and the passing of his father a decade later, caused him to question whether he could ever realise his acting ambitions.
He told Britain's GQ magazine: "It just changed everything. It was just a profound sense of being alone. And that lasted a while.
"I was in college and I had to start over again. I was at a crossroads. It really could have gone the other way."
Jon suffered rejection after rejection before he finally struck the big time with 'Mad Men' but admitted he was always advised he wouldn't find success until later in life.
He explained: "Flick through the TV guide in the 1990s - I auditioned for every one of those shows. It wasn't just my looks. My energy wasn't right.
"I had to grow into being hireable. People said to me, just wait until you're 40. I was like, '40?'"
Jon has been in a relationship with actress Jennifer Westfeldt, 44, for 17 years and can't believe that doesn't stop women throwing themselves at him wherever he goes.
He said: "I can literally walk through Central Park and every third person will be like, 'Can I have a kiss?'
"No, absolutely not. And Jennifer will be right there. It doesn't make you feel good. I'm like, 'How were you raised?'"
