The actress, who married musician Christopher Jarecki in 2005, recently had to wear a pregnancy fat suit for her part in the critically acclaimed Broadway play ‘Time Stands Still’, and admits it made her feel broodier than ever.
She said, “Wearing a pregnancy suit was so much fun. I loved the feeling of pretending to be pregnant and having little arms and legs and this big belly.
“I’ve been wanting to have a baby since I was two years old – I’m destined to be a mother. I can’t wait to be pregnant.”
Despite her eagerness to fall pregnant, 33-year-old Alicia, who stars in the new comedy ‘Butter’ alongside Jennifer Garner, cited a busy work schedule as putting her plans on hold.
Speaking of her work on the movie, which is being shot in Shreveport, Los Angeles – she told People magazine, “It’s an interesting place, but you’re working so much, so it’s not like you’re on vacation.”
Alicia is also set to star in the upcoming comedy ‘Vamps’, directed by the ‘Clueless’ writer-director Amy Heckerling, and said it was “crazy” to be working with someone again who helped make her famous 15 years ago.
She said, “I was a baby when we met. It’s crazy how long ago that was. Now it’ll be great to be a grown-up and work with her.”
M.I.A.’s latest video, Born Free, is currently at the center of a YouTube game of whack-a-mole.
It’s been posted and taken down and reposted, mainly for objectionable content and violence toward gingers. You can watch the video in its entirety below, but in addition to graphic violence and depiction of a child getting shot in the head point blank, there’s also old people sex and some crack smoking.
The track itself is a deviation from M.I.A.’s previous hits, like bouncy rap hit Paper Planes. Born Free isn’t light, or even hip-hop-like- it’s kind of a loud and scary techno-hardcore joint. If you’re curious about the video, you’d better get a look-see before it gets yanked again.
Katy Perry is planning to have hypnotherapy to give up smoking.
The ‘Hot N Cold’ singer has reportedly been puffing on more and more cigarettes as her nuptials to British comedian Russell Brand draw closer, but is now planning drastic action to stop the deadly habit before it ruins her singing voice.
According to the Daily Mirror newspaper, the singer told a pal, “I’m stressed out with the wedding and I keep smoking to calm my nerves. I do it even though I know it is really bad for me and I know I need to stop.
“So I’m thinking I am going to have hypnotherapy to help me get over it. I’d never say to kids, ‘This is cool’. It’s a really bad habit that I need to quit.”
Katy, 25, recently confessed that even though she has a successful career worldwide and a famous fiance she can be unsure of herself.
She explained, “Even the most confident people still have their moments of insecurity. And even though I may come across as loud and bubbly and brimming with confidence, I can be a shy girl too.”
Another of Jesse James’ alleged mistresses has apologized to Sandra Bullock.
Stripper Melissa Smith, who claims to have had an affair with the motorcycle entrepreneur after meeting online via her MySpace page, sent a fax to the Oscar-winning actress saying she was sorry for the pain and hurt she had caused.
A copy of the document obtained by website TMZ shows Melissa wrote, “I felt I needed to reach out to you and tell you how deeply sorry I am for everything that you’ve been through.
“And I know nothing I can say in this letter is going to make the pain of my actions go away.
“I am sorry for any hurt or pain that I have caused you. My actions of engaging with a married man are unforgivable. I never meant you any harm.
“I compromised my beliefs on several occasions and as a result will never forgive myself.”
Melissa then told Sandra she would welcome her getting in touch, adding, “Please contact me if you wish to discuss on the phone or in person.”
Melissa is not the first of Jesse’s reported extra-marital lovers to have sent their apologies to Sandra.
Tattoo model Michelle ‘Bombshell’ McGee, who claims to have had an 11-month affair with the father-of-three – wanted to show Sandra how sorry she is for her actions but was adamant Jesse is the one who should take most of the blame.
She said, “Sandra, I’m sorry for your embarrassment. I’m sorry all this is public. I’m sorry for everything.
“I feel like I was duped just as much as Sandra was. I feel like I was lied to just as much as she was. If Jesse was upfront with me in the beginning, we wouldn’t be in this situation.”
Jesse, who is currently in rehab receiving treatment for sex addiction, has been accused of having at least two other affairs.
Sandra and Jesse married in 2005 and sources say the 45-year-old beauty is ready to divorce him once he completes his rehab stint.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are planning a small wedding.
The couple – who raise six children, Maddox, eight, Pax, six, Zahara, five, three-year-old Shiloh and 21-month-old twins Knox and Vivienne –are reportedly determined to shield their nuptials from the public and have decided to opt for a low-key affair in order to avoid accusations of wasting money.
A friend of the couple told America’s OK! magazine, “Brad and Angelina are exceptionally private people, and they pride themselves on being humble and not wasting money.
“So some over-the-top, beachfront affair with hundreds of guests isn’t going to happen.”
It has been claimed the couple, who have been dating since meeting on the set of 2005 movie ‘Mr. and Mrs. Smith’ – only decided to get married after their older children begged them to make their union official.
A source close to Brad, who was previously married to Jennifer Aniston, and Angelina said, “First it was Maddox, who has begged his parents to tie the knot for years.
“Lately, Shiloh and Zahara have been chiming in, and Pax thinks it would just be the coolest thing ever to be a ring bearer.”
Angelina, 34, has previously admitted she and 46-year-old Brad are expecting the children to eventually start questioning why they had never got married.
She said, “Usually people fall in love and everything revolves around the ritual of marriage, children are an afterthought. We did everything backwards.
“But sooner or later it will be the kids who ask us to get married. You know, they see films and start asking questions. Such as, ‘Why are “But sooner or later it will be the kids who ask us to get married. You know, they see films and start asking questions. Such as, ‘Why are Shrek and his love Fiona married and you’re not?’ ”

Real estate mogul and Celebrity Apprentice star Donald Trump has commented on contestant Bret Michaels’ condition after his recent brain hemorrhage and subsequent hospitalization. Trump, who stars with Michaels on this season of Celebrity Apprentice, says that the former Poison singer has a rough road ahead to recover from the incident. The Donald tells TMZ that Michaels is in ‘”big, big trouble and the prognosis is not great.” But Trump feels that the rocker’s determination and drive could help him get through his latest medical crisis:
As Trump put it, “He turns out to be an amazing competitor and ultimately that is the thing that could save his life.”
Trump, who TMZ reports is in touch with “people” at the hospital in which Michaels is being treated, personally theorizes that an on stage fall last year may have precipitated the dangerous brain hemorrhage the singer suffered late last week. Several days after Michaels was hospitalized, he remains in the intensive care unit.
Gwyneth Paltrow called Robert Downey Jr. a bad kisser.
The actress locks lips with the hunk in forthcoming superhero sequel ‘Iron Man 2’ but the actor, who plays the title character and his alter ego Tony Stark, claims he deliberately toned down the passion to stop their smooch being “weird”.
He said, “She said to me that I didn’t know what I was doing, like it didn’t feel good. I’m like, ‘You know what? First of all, we’re all friends, so what would be creepy would be if I was coming off all sexy to you—which by the way, I’ve done in movies and it creeps them out. So what am I going to creep you out for?’ ”
However, despite Gwyneth’s criticism, the 45-year-old actor insists his co-star, who reprises her role as Pepper Potts in the sequel, really enjoyed their love scene.
He quipped, “I couldn’t get her off of me. It was embarrassing.
“Despite what she said on set, she still thinks about it.”
Speaking about their romantic moment, 37-year-old Gwyneth revealed both her husband, Coldplay singer Chris Martin, and Robert’s wife, the movie’s executive producer Susan Downey, were on set for it.
She said, “It was great because both my husband and his were right there.”
Paris Hilton has reportedly rekindled her romance with her former fiance.
The hotel heiress has been enjoying the company of model Jason Shaw, who she dated from 2001 to 2003 before calling off their engagement, following her split from Doug Reinhardt and sources say their feelings for one another have never gone away.
One pal told E! Online, “When Jason found out that she had ended her relationship with Doug, he was thrilled and made plans with her right away.
“Paris has always loved Jason and cared about him deeply. But when they were together she was just a kid and not ready for such a commitment.”
However, Paris is keen to take things slowly.
The blonde beauty recently said she thinks she is better off without Doug and claimed to already be over the end of their 14-month romance.
She said, “I am, like, so past that – I don’t even care. I don’t even remember that time in my life. I am over it!
“I just realised that I’m better off without him. So I ended it because I deserve something much better! He wasn’t right for me and I will eventually find somebody who loves me for who I am.”
Lindsay Lohan has reportedly been banned from a club for throwing a glass at Samantha Ronson.
The 23-year-old actress was asked to leave the Trousdale club in Los Angeles following the incident with her ex-girlfriend, which left the DJ “really shaken up” on Friday night, April 23.
An insider at the club told the New York Post newspaper, “Samantha was DJing and went to sit with her friends when Lindsay stormed over and threw a glass at her head.
“Glass threw everywhere, and Samantha looked really shaken up. The club owner asked Lindsay to leave and was overheard saying she’ll never come back.”
Despite the incident 32-year-old Samantha continued to party, and wrote about the incident on twitter.
She said, “Just got a glass thrown at my head….. Hmmm- wonder who did it????(sic)”
When questioned about why the ‘Mean Girls’ actress would throw a glass, Samantha told X17 Online, “I don’t know, she’s an angry human being.”
It has been a turbulent time for the pair recently.
Last week, Lindsay, who dated the DJ for around 18 months until last year, accused Samantha of spitting in her face.
Writing on twitter, Lindsay said, “Fun @coachella but tonight @ my friends bday party, @samantharonson spit in my face and left w/ @mileycyrus’s ex. (sic)”
However, a while later, Samantha rebuffed the claims, writing, “Guess what didn’t happen tonight.”
Nicole Kidman convinced Naomi Watts not to give up acting.
The actresses became friends growing up in Australia and both moved to Hollywood to pursue their careers, but while Nicole became a huge celebrity and married Tom Cruise, Naomi found the path to stardom harder.
At one point she considered a career change, until she was given a pep talk by her friend.
Naomi said, “I’d been slogging away in Hollywood for five years, getting nowhere.
“At castings, I was constantly told I wasn’t talented enough, I wasn’t right, I wasn’t beautiful enough, I was nowhere near sexy enough.
“I thought about quitting acting and took other jobs – in restaurants, on magazines – but nothing gave me the same feeling.
“Nicole actually gave me hope. She’d tell me that it would only take one film, one casting and everything would change.”
Eventually Naomi, 41, got her break in dark thriller ‘Mulholland Drive’ in 2001, and has since become known for taking offbeat roles, appearing in ‘The Ring’ and ‘21 Grams’ as well as box office smashes, including ‘King Kong’.
Naomi recalled how she and Nicole later met up to read their respective scripts for critically acclaimed ‘21 Grams’ and ‘Cold Mountain’ – for which Kidman later received an Oscar nomination – and couldn’t believe how things had worked out for them.
Naomi added, “Once I’d been given the ‘21 Grams’ script, I took it with me everywhere.
“We went to my house, and we were sitting on the couch reading our favorite scenes to each other. And we were like, ‘Can you believe we’ve got two fantastic roles?’”
Naomi next stars in ‘Mother and Child’ about a lawyer who stars an affair with her boss, and also appears in the next Woody Allen film ‘You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger’.
