Jessica Alba doesn’t do nude scenes in front of grandparents


Jessica Alba refuses to do naked scenes because she doesn't want her grandparents to see her boobs.
The actress, 33, who has a nudity clause when filming movies, doesn't like to flash the flesh on the big screen for fear of her older relatives catching a glimpse of her breasts.
Speaking in the June issue of Glamour magazine, she explained: "I don't want my grandparents to see my boobs. That's it. It would be weird at Christmas. And, I mean, really, if you look at the movies I have done, getting naked would never 'elevate' the picture."
Meanwhile, the 'Sin City' star has been busy working on her business The Honest Company, which creates toxin-free household goods, nappies, and body care products.
And she admits she was inspired to create the organisation after spending her childhood in and out of hospital.
She explained: "That's [spending my childhood in hospital is] what really inspired me to start Honest. I had so many health issues, and come hell or high water, my kids were going to be as healthy as possible."
The brunette beauty - who has two children Honor, five, and Haven, two, with her husband Cash Warren - admits she felt really out of place as a child because she wasn't able to do the things other children were doing at her age.
She added: "My life was tough as a kid. I was so lonely. And I felt really disconnected from my friends because I spent so much time in the hospital with grown-ups, and felt like a weirdo."

Kim Kardashian ‘narrowed down’ her wedding gown


Kim Kardashian has chosen her wedding gown.
The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' beauty is set to marry Kanye West - with whom she has 10-month-old daughter North - on May 24 in Paris and insists she's "narrowed down" her choices of dresses for the big day.
She told US Vogue: "I tried on quite a few. [Then I] narrowed it down."
Kim was recently spotted with a large shopping bag following a visit to Balmain's showroom in the French capital, sparking speculation she may have had a fitting ahead of her nuptials.
She was previously said to has chosen a show-stopping design and "beyond loves" the gown, which insiders have described as one of the world's "elite."
Balmain seems to be a favourite to curate Kim's wedding look after growing closer to designer Olivier Rousteing in recent months, posting numerous photos of her hanging out with him on Twitter.
Kim, 33, and Kanye, 36, who got engaged in October, allegedly tied the knot in a private ceremony in Los Angeles this weekend after securing their marriage license last week.
They were forced to legally wed in California before their romantic bash in Paris after it was revealed the French law requires a strict 40-day residency before they can get married in the country.
Meanwhile, the screen beauty was spotted at the Met Gala with her fiancé last night (05.05.14) where she opted for a blue Lanvin piece with her long hair swept to the side.

Kelly Osbourne stunned by auction bid


Kelly Osbourne thinks it is "insane" someone has paid $20,000 to have dinner with her family.
The showbiz clan - rocker Ozzy Osbourne, his wife Sharon and their children Jack and Kelly - donated a family meal for an auction at the Race to Erase MS gala event at the weekend, and the 'Fashion Police' host can't believe how much their lot raised for the multiple sclerosis (MS) charity.
Kelly wrote on her blog: "Can you believe that someone bid $20,000 to have dinner with my family???? That's insane but thank you thank you thank you whomever you are, I can't wait to have dinner with you!!!!! It's going to be a fun one so get prepared... YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!! (sic)"
Kelly herself also got involved with the auction, winning a bidding war against her brother - who suffers from MS - for a vacation in Mexico, for which she paid $6,000.
A bespoke Aston Martin Vanquish - which was commissioned by the Osbourne family - attracted the highest bid of the night, selling for $230,000.
As well as the auction, which was hosted by Jack and Howie Mandel, guests at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza hotel in Los Angeles were entertained with performances by Steven Tyler, Cee Lo Green and Natalie Cole, while Jordin Sparks was among the speakers.
The annual event raised $1.75 million dollars for Race to Erase MS and its Center Without Walls programme, a collaboration of top MS research centres working together as a team on ground-breaking research to treat and ultimately find a cure for the disease.

Justin Timberlake enjoys new experiences


Justin Timberlake loves trying new things.
The 33-year-old singer and actor believes it is important to learn from everything he does, so knows if he starts to repeat himself, it's time to do something different.
Speaking on the new season of 'Oprah's Master Class', he said: "If I'm not learning from something that I'm doing, then that means I've done it before. Do something different, even if it's within the same medium.
"To try new things, that makes more sense to me than making a career out of doing the exact same thing over and over and over and over again."
And the 'Mirrors' hitmaker - who is married to Jessica Biel - feels particularly excited and inspired when he embarks on a new challenge that takes him out of his comfort zone.
He added: "I like the moment where I can look at everyone and say, 'I have no idea how to do this. Let's figure it out.'
You do that with a stage performance as much as you do a character on film. That inspires me. That motivates me."
Other stars who will appear on the new season of 'Oprah's Master Class' include singer Lionel Ritchie, actresses Whoopi Goldberg and Sharon Stone, and 'Fargo' star Billy Bob Thornton.

Jon Hamm sick as a pig working in porn


Jon Hamm admits working on porn movies was "soul-crushing".
The 'Mad Men' actor was a set-dresser on softcore adult movies in the late 1990s and says it was one of the worst jobs he'd ever had.
Discussing a recently resurfaced episode of 'The Big Date', which he appeared on in 1996, he said: "I was actually at that time working as a set dresser for Cinemax soft-core-porn movies. It was soul-crushing."
Jon's career has come on massively in recent years and he doesn't think he'll ever get a better job than playing advertising boss Don Draper in 'Mad Men', which will come to an end after its current seventh season.
Speaking to the new issue of Vanity Fair magazine, he said: "This is the best job I've ever had and maybe ever will have in my life--it's so fun to play all of this. It can be relentlessly dark. It can be terribly sexually inappropriate, is a way to say it. But who else gets a chance to do any of that stuff? There's so much there."
Jon is also heavily involved with the plotlines of the drama, with show creator Matthew Weiner admitting he knows "everything" that is going to happen and the writers often go to the actor for suggestions when they get "stuck".
Matthew said: "He knows everything. He's the first, outside the writers' room. I try stuff out on him.
"When we get stuck in the writers' room, I go down there and have a conversation with him."

Kiefer Sutherland dating Sofia Karstens


Kiefer Sutherland is dating Sofia Karstens.
The '24: Live Another Day' actor is said to have been spending a lot of time with the 37-year-old actress, including a recent trip to New York, and they are "really happy" with one another.
A source told People: "They are really happy together."
Kiefer was previously married to Camelia Kath - with who he has daughter Sarah and stepdaughter Michelle - and Elizabeth Kelly Winn, while Sofia married Jason London in 2011, but they filed for legal separation in February this year.
Kiefer recently reprised his role as former counter-terrorism agent Jack Bauer in '24' spin-off '24: Live Another Day' - which sees his character a fugitive living in the UK - and recently admitted filming left him "bruised and battered".
He said: "I was definitely bruised and battered this time around. Once, I went to open a metal door while being shot at and didn't realise it was a prop. I pulled the door handle off completely and fragments shattered in my face.
"Then a bullet cartridge firing multiple rounds freakishly hit a metal beam and bounced three inches from my face. I had blood pouring out. But, listen, I'd do anything for this character."
And though the actor is much older than when the show first started in 2001, he insists he is in better shape than ever.
He said: "I am older. There's no way around that. But I had the luxury of training for four or five months coming into this, and when we started, I was in the best shape of my life. That helped me bounce back faster."

Tori Spelling’s mum recalls star’s ‘scary’ hospital stay


Tori Spelling's mother admits it was "scary" seeing her "thin" daughter hospitalised.
The 40-year-old reality star - whose marriage problems to Dean McDermott are being documented in 'True Tori' - spent six days in a medical facility last month for undisclosed reasons and Candy Spelling admits some of her daughter's problems were due to dehydration and not eating.
Candy, 68, told 'Entertainment Tonight': "It's very difficult. when you see a child sick, when you see her in the hospital, with tubes in her arms, that's scary for any parent to see.
"She was totally dehydrated. She wasn't eating. She's very thin. It's just that Tori doesn't eat if she's stressed."
Candy helped feed Tori - who has four children, Liam, seven, Stella, five, Hattie, two, and Finn, 20 months, with Dean - while she was in hospital and she was glad to assist her.
She added: "I was feeding her pudding one night, and she's going, 'Oh mommy, I'm so glad that you're here.
"I love when she calls me mommy, because it's always a good thing."
Despite their marriage woes, Dean - who admitted cheating on Tori last year and also endured a stint in rehab - reportedly spent 10 hours a day with his wife while she was in hospital.

Drew Barrymore had pregnancy worries


Drew Barrymore was "really nervous" during her first pregnancy.
The 'Whip It!' actress - who has daughters Olive, 19 months, and two-week-old Frankie with husband Will Kopelman - admits she had a string of concerns when expecting her first child, but did her best not to "bother" other people with her worries.
She told E! News: "The first time I was really nervous the whole time. I definitely chose my battles. I don't like to bother people.
"If it was something important or I was really worried, of course, I would call the doctor. But I was not that patient. I would just panic quietly inside."
The 39-year-old beauty is keen for her children to grow up with a strong work ethic.
She said: "I would really like to raise kids to do summer jobs and intern, and understand that if you are supposed to be somewhere at 3 o'clock, you need to be there at 3 o'clock."
Drew - who is a co-founder of successful production company Flower Films - also admitted to some dislikes about her body but accepts she can't have everything she wants, so is comfortable with her flaws.
Speaking to the new issue of Redbook magazine, she said: "I would love to have long, thin arms. I really would but I don't. I can run a company, so maybe I am just going to have fatter arms and run a company wearing sleeves? That is my balance; nobody gets to have it all.
"I would take wearing sleeves and running a company. Not that running a company is the key to happiness, but while I may not be tall and thin, I am capable."

Miley Cyrus snubs The Voice


Miley Cyrus has refused to perform on 'The Voice' because of Christina Aguilera.
The 'Wrecking Ball' hitmaker reportedly has an intense dislike of the show's coach - who, like Miley, shot to fame as a young Disney star - and even though the 'Fighter' singer is currently on a two-season break from the competition, she won't sing on the show.
A source told RadarOnline.com: "Miley is no friend or supporter of Christina, despite the fact they have a lot in common, including long associations with Disney and using some of same people through the years on their respective business teams.
"Even if Christina has temporarily stepped aside, The Voice is still Christina's show and Miley doesn't want to lift a finger to help that woman."
Show bosses are said to be upset as they are desperate for the former 'Hannah Montana' star to sing on the season finale.
The source said: "Last month 'Voice' bosses made Miley another offer to have her perform on the finale show and Miley said no - and was very clear about her reasons!"
According to the insider, 21-year-old Miley was annoyed with Christina for a tweet she posted about the chaps she wore at a concert in February, believing what was seen by many as praise to be a subtle reminder the 'Dirrty' star had worn the revealing garment first.
Christina wrote alongside a picture of Miley in costume: "Cheers from one dirrty girl to the next @MileyCyrus...wear em' loud & proud, girl-yes! (sic)"
The source said: "Miley couldn't believe Xtina would Tweet about her wearing chaps on stage, reminding everyone that she did it first. It was such a fake compliment and undermined Miley in the process."
