New Chatter

It is always an honor to be on the cover of an elite fashion magazine, but it is indeed a bigger enjoyment when two most popular men’s magazines publish a model on the cover in the same month.

The hot and sexy Megan Fox is in for a treat as she is the cover girl for both GQ and Maxim, this month.

Interestingly the “Transformers” hottie’s rep told the press that the photo on the Maxim cover is an old one.

It clearly meant that Maxim published an old photo on the cover just to jeopardize the GQ spread.

What an honor for the young budding star!

Moody Mammas maternity clothers founders Marta Abrams and Elise Rosemarin have teamed up with Christian Siriano (Fierce-ness!) to create a new maternity collection for Spring 2009.
The line will be called Fierce for Moody Mammas by Christian Siriano.
A rep from Moody Mammas said that Siriano signed up with them because he thought it would be so much fun for a gay guy to team up with two women who have never had children to create such fashionable clothes.
Judging by the clothes Siriano has produced on and off Project Runway, these clothes may be not too comfortable, BUT YOU’LL DEFINITELY LOOK GOOD.
So to all the future mammas out there, better be ready because the fierceness is invading your closet.

Heidi Klum says Seal is a “wonderful daddy”. The supermodel insists her singer husband is a fantastic father to the three children they raise together.

Heidi - who has two sons, two-year-old Henry and 19-month-old Johan, with Seal, and a four-year-old daughter Leni from a previous relationship - revealed: “Seal is a wonderful daddy. He never minded changing diapers, he loves to sing lullabies and he’s always 100 per cent there. We have that in common as parents.”

Heidi - who was pregnant with Leni when she first started dating the singer
- recently revealed although Formula One team boss Flavio Briatore is Leni’s biological father, Leni thinks of Seal as her dad.

The blonde beauty also revealed she thinks her family is so strong because they communicate with each other. She said: “When I was younger my parents, brother and I would talk to each other about what we did during the day. It’s important to try to keep that in a family.”

One of Vanessa Paradis’s pictures for the new Miu Miu campaign has leaked. The photo was taken by fashion photo super duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. The French actress, singer and long time girlfriend of Johnny Depp, is the new face of the fashion house. Vanessa took Kirsten Dunst’s place as the face of the Italian style house. Miuccia Prada supposedly chose the French songstress because she casts a “certain powerful independence”. Vanessa looks great in the picture but I’m not totally blown over. Maybe it’s because we usually see her all glammed up anyway so it’s not that far of a stretch.

Gwyneth Paltrow believes husband Chris Martin was a gift sent from heaven by her late father.

The Oscar-winning actress met the Coldplay frontman just weeks after the devastating death of Bruce Paltrow and Gwyneth is convinced her beloved dad had something to do with it.

She said: “My father died and I met my husband three weeks later. So, in a way, it felt like my father was in heaven putting him there in my life, you know?”

Meanwhile, Gwyneth admits she broke down in tears while filming new movie ‘Iron Man’ because she was away from her two children, Apple, four, and two-year-old Moses.

She added: “Some days I’d think, ‘Oh, my God, they’re in the bath right now and I’m not there.’ I’d cry in my trailer! But I realised it’s OK for me to want to express that part of myself. It’s why I’m here. But I’ll never go back to exploiting it the way I did. Never! What I have at home is too precious.”

It’s been months since Kanye West’s mother, Dr. Donda West, died but it’s only just now that Kanye is opening up about it. The rapper recently posted a blog to talk about how his life is different after his mom’s passing. He says “I don’t do anything I don’t love anymore… While people chase money I pursue happiness… If there’s anything my mom taught me is to enjoy life. I just recorded my first verse in the last 6 months 2 days ago at Bape’s Studio in Japan. It felt good and I was inspired… The constant hours of creating helped me 2 keep from loosing my mind in a bad way. Chris Milk told me tragedy can produce great art and this is definitely true. I am a total mad man now, up till 3 am every night, trying 2 fight pain, board-um, and uncertainty with creativity. All that said, life is good.”

We may not be seeing her out as much due to her impetigo condition but that’s not preventing Amy Winehouse from being a party animal. Early Tuesday morning, the singer was spotted shouting goodbye to her friends who were leaving her Camden home looking a little worse for wear. Wino can’t be looking like that for much longer if reports are true that she has been offered a lucrative deal by top fashion designer Roberto Cavalli. The offer reportedly comes after Victoria Beckham told the designer how she admired Amy’s unique sense of style. A rep for Amy says that she is still considering many offers at the moment so there’s no confirmation there.

Ok, so there’s no confirmation from her camp yet, but judging from these pics, it’s either a baby or an abnormally large tumor. Either way, she should get that checked out.

Fergie and her fiance Josh Duhamel headed out for dinner at Hana Sushi in Santa Monica on Tuesday. She was most definitely a little thick around the middle, but they aren’t giving up any baby secrets yet.

When you can’t sell concert tickets, sell clothes instead. According to USA Today, Avril Lavigne is teaming up with retailer Kohl’s to launch her own clothing line in July. The juniors’ collection named ‘Abbey Dawn’, after Avril’s childhood nickname, will feature “a lot of hot pinks and blacks and stars and purple and zebra. Basically, everything I wear. I have a very particular style. I want it to be available to a lot of girls, and I want it to be affordable. I walked through (a Los Angeles) Kohl’s the other day and said, ‘Oh, when my line is here it’s totally going to stand out.” Pieces from the line will range from $24 to $48.

Much has been said lately about Katie Holmes’ tour to promote her movie Mad Money. She’s recently arrived in New York but took some time out for family before heading out for work again.

She and husband Tom Cruise took little Suri to FAO Schwarz on Sunday night. They enjoyed a shopping spree, complete with personal shopper.

The parents had as much fun as Suri. Katie says, “We were at FAO Schwarz last night…running around, eating ice cream and playing with all of the toys.”

Makes me think of another toy store’s jingle…I don’t wanna grow up….

Another custody hearing has been scheduled on Monday and it is being said that it could be one of the most important days in the life of Britney Spears. Although she is not legally required to show up in court, the pop wreck needs to show her face to the judge and explain herself is she’s got any hope of getting her kids back. People are saying that if she doesn’t show or if she is uncooperative, it could be the end for her custody case.

Furthermore, police sources say that Commissioner Scott Gordon will hear firsthand eyewitness accounts of last Thursday’s breakdown from LAPD, fire fighters and paramedics who were on the scene. And we all know that’s not going to be a pretty picture.

Ok, I don’t know about anyone else, but when I picture a woman in labour I see lots of shouting and yelling; often lots of cursing of the man involved along the lines of “don’t think you are ever coming near me again you ******”…or something like that.

So it just seems unnatural, and almost impossible, to give birth in absolute silence. Especially with no painkillers or medical interference. However, apparently Katie Holmes did it, thanks to husband Tom Cruise’s belief in Scientology; and now J-Lo wishes to follow in her footsteps.

The belief behind it is those noisy hospital environments, screaming, and doctors yelling “push” can have a poor effect on the child later in life.

Oh to be a fly on the wall; I have to salute the woman that succeeds childbirth in utter silence with no pain relief. Men you don’t know how easy you have it.

Billie Piper enters the New Year as a married woman after tieing the knot this afternoon with fiancé Laurence Fox.

The classy 50-minute affair was a million miles apart from the actress’ first wedding to radio star Chris Evans in Las Vegas, 2001. Billie - who rejected big money offers in favour of a private day with family and close friends - looked stunning in a low-cut ivory formal wedding dress with a black coat draped over her shoulders.

The 25-year-old was accompanied by four bridesmaids in short purple dresses. The bridegroom, 29, arrived 45 minutes before the ceremony was due to start.

Perhaps he was threatened with certain death if he was late? Or maybe he is just an attentive husband-to-be. Either way it seemed to have gone without a hitch. Congratulations to the happy couple.

After the news that Ike Turner had passed away I doubt the first thing his former wife did was collapse in floods of tears. Despite being married for 16 years, the abuse that Tina Turner suffered at his hands is sure to have taken all the love away.

So it is no shock to hear that the attendance list of Ike’s funeral will not include Tina.

One friend said: “Tina hasn’t seen Ike for 35 years and last time she did see him he treated her appallingly, so there’s no way she will be going to the service to pay tribute to him.”

Anyone who thinks this is wrong obviously hasn’t seen the Tina and Ike movie. I applaud the woman. Why should she attend? Ike is in her past and Tina has become a legend in her own right; not only in the music industry but in women’s hearts everywhere.

Uma Thurman and Alicia Keys were caught having a laugh during the press conference on Tuesday for the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize Concert at the Radisson Plaza Hotel in Oslo, Norway. The concert was designed to pay tribute to the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize laureates for their achievements and to promote awareness of environmental issues and global warming.

Other people present ate the press conference include the likes of Kevin Spacey and Annie Lennox. Those are some mighty big names doing some big publicity for a very big cause. Kudos to them, it’s almost like they’re the ones getting the award.

She might have been sacked from the X-Factor but we still love her; especially now the gorgeous Kate Thornton is expecting her first child. Hurrah!Engaged to DJ Darren Emerson, Kate was spotted having a scan last week. Could this potentially put the big day on hold?

A source said: “Kate was beaming from ear to ear. But funnily enough, when an X Factor trailer came on the TV in the hospital waiting room, she turned her head away.”

Well Kate forget all that business now. Not only are we deliriously happy for you and hubby-to-be; we know you will bounce back with a vengeance.

Did I mention I love it when I can report about good stuff like this? More happy ever after stories please…

It seems she just can’t learn her lesson. In past months Britney Spears has been involved in countless driving incidents including running a red light, driving over a policeman’s foot; and recently she was banned from having her kids in the car with her when she was driving. But all this obviously isn’t enough to turn the pop star into the model driver.

In a move sure to prevent the ruling about her kids being overturned, Miss Spears was caught on camera by Hollywood TV sending a text on her mobile phone whilst driving. Now you would think that as a big celeb; used to being followed by the press, Britney would think twice about misbehaving and getting away with it. Doesn’t she know by now the paparazzi have a way of seeing everything?

Britney, honey, hire a chauffeur or something. You really oughtn’t to be on the roads.

She checks out alright but she checks out her baby and not in the other sense of the phrase. A bundled up Christina Aguilera was spotted on a relatively mild evening in Los Angeles on Monday. The singer who’s rumored to be around six months pregnant was seen as she was about to leave a doctor’s office.

It’s being passed around that she and her husband Jordan are expecting a boy for their first child. If having guests from her baby shower showing up bringing blue and boy-themed gifts were any clue, it’s not just a rumor. She’s also reportedly planning to have two more baby showers. Why, not enough gifts from the first one?

Actress Julia Roberts knew she was destined to marry Danny Moder from the moment they met - because her body told her so. The 40-year-old began dating the then-married Moder in 2000 on the set of her movie The Mexican and insists she “just knew” the cameraman would eventually become her husband. How does that work when your body tells you this man is for your when he already had a wife whose body may have said the same thing? Ok, I guess he went with the million dollar woman over commitment to his ex-wife. I wonder if someone richer comes along will he leave Julia. I would like to feel happy for her but somehow this is wrong. You should fell ashamed Julia not happy anyways if he’ll do it to one woman the day may come for you to watch his back walk out the door for someone younger and richer than you.

The tour that Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are currently on is almost over. And I’m sure that the singing Latino couple is thanking the heavens for it if they still want to keep Jennifer’s ‘non-pregnancy’ under wraps.

The singer/actress is already looking like she’s in the latter part of her second trimester of pregnancy and is even rumored to be carrying twins. She can’t hide that massive bump any longer.

It would be good for the tour to finally wrap up. There are no more worries of exhaustion, falling over the stage and hiding her belly. She can just focus on being a mom.

Actress Kim Cattrall is begging her 18-year-old nephew not to sign up for service in Iraq - because her role in British wartime drama My Boy Jack has made her more aware of dangers in the battlefield. I understand Cattrall not wanting her nephew to enlist and go Iraq. There are American’s that favor or oppose the war in Iraq. A friend enlisted in the USMC with a desire to fight in battle knowing he could lose his life, but his plans got changed. I support the war and I’m proud that Cattrall’s nephew has that desire to go to the battlefield and fight for our country, but only Christ knows if this is meant for him. Cattrall’s nephew has to find out if the military will accept him due to his bad vision. First of all, this kid must be out of his mind. Fighting for America, Freedom, or the betterment of mankind are all worthy goals but Iraq doesn’t fit any of those.

Celine Dion has vowed never to drink alcohol because she is terrified she could fall victim to an addiction. The singer - who has credited her marriage to her manager Rene Angelil, 65, for keeping her away from the party scene - says cases of alcoholism in her family have put her off booze. Yeah only stupid people with more shit than brain cells in their head do not learn from other’s mistakes and then when they make mistakes themselves they then too fail to learn and more often than not plunge themselves in the sea of alcohol. Look at my friends for instance, one of them has been hospitalized on 2 occasions for excessive drinking and we had to call his parents at one point but yet he say he cannot start a meal before he has gulped down some trash beer. I know beer is not harmful but then slowly it becomes an addiction that stays on for ever. It’s been seven years since I quit alcohol and today I never ever feel like tasting it again.

Jennifer Lopez is coming out with a new fragrance. She recently had an interview on how and why she created the perfume ‘Deseo’, which is Spanish for desire. She says that she was inspired by the scents in her garden and that she thinks the perfume industry is going good right now with the many other artists releasing fragrances.

The perfume is due out in February and is a mix of scents of “watery bamboo leaves, garden yuzu, Sicilian bergamot and freesia; the heart is composed of star jasmine, pink geranium flower, orange blossom and French mimosa, and the drydown is of warm amber, oak moss, sensual musks, creamy sandalwood, atlas cedar wood, patchouli and mineral accord”.

You can get it in a pretty nifty bottle which is in the shape of a “diamond in the rough”.

Brad Pitt he knew what he was getting himself into that your life would not be your own. it is a trade millions of dollars and loads of fans, and perks the rest of us only dream of and they have the audacity to complain. If they don’t like all the attention and they feel that everyone is like glued to their private lives then why do they never get out of it all and leave LA and reside at some country river side. Ask them to farm some land and cultivate farm land, sell the produce and earn a living. I think these celebs have a job just as many of us do. Part of their job is to do interviews, TV shots, mag covers etc…It is not their job to be attacked while with their children or family. Or to have people dig in their garbage, chase them down the street, follow them into grocery stores, malls etc… Being a celeb does not give any one rights over themselves..

Uma Thurman hates watching violent films because she can’t stand seeing blood and gore. The 37-year-old, who starred in the ultra-gory Kill Bill Volumes 1 and 2, would rather watch a romantic comedy instead. You have to have a taste for everything to enjoy it, you can’t just be eating pasta every day can you, so romantic comedies like Notting Hill and Pretty Woman are always great movies but today violent movies are the action movies and war movies that rule the box office and what ever Uma might think about them despite acting in similar movies the violent or action movies are the ones that I like more. What I’d hate to see are horror flicks, they can be so creepy that they usually scare the hell out of me. Commercial cinema is made for a vide audience and of make money so you ultimately have to make movies that is acceptable to a wider audience and when Uma has less work she can also do the documentary or parallel cinema kind of movies to fulfill her creative instincts if any.

Victoria Beckham has really surprised me on how low-key she actually is. She is so low-key that she even tried to get a pap kicked out of the mall when she was shopping around with her kids. Posh just wants to protect her children. She is so lovingly with her kids. She is the most powerful fashionista on earth and loves and protects her whole family. What a fantastic celeb, she proves again, that not all celebs are treating their descendants like rubbish or have to spend their time in jail and/or rehab. I think that’s the thing that bothers parents the most that the paps are so much after these celebs that they we won’t mind intruding their personal lives when the celebrity is out with the kids on a lovely afternoon shopping, the paps want the pics and will publish them with the kids having some ice-cream and chocolates. Well it’s her personal life and has very right to taking away that memory chip from that person clicking the photos.

There’s nothing like a Hollywood love triangle to brighten up a dull day. Salma Hayek got pregnant and engaged overnight and finally gave birth to her baby girl last month. Well it turns out her baby daddy François-Henri Pinault might have been busy spreading the love last year. What a PIMP! lol that’s awesome. If he told Salma about Linda & the kid and she’s ok with it. Fine. But if he didn’t, he’s a jackass. Papa is a rolling stone!!! I heard that he is one of richest men in France. Hey hey do fire me for that, yes, so what if he one of the richest in France or Zambia doesn’t make a difference coz all these rich men are filthy people who think they can have any woman on bed for a price they can throw away. Damn, money sure does make people want to have sex with ya. Ugly, French man as a playa??? Wow, now THIS is an interesting scandal.

Four months after welcoming her third child and two weeks before turning 40, Julia Roberts says she has “all I could ever ask for.” “More than anything I am just the most proud wife and mother to three of the most amazing children,” she said Friday night at an event in her honor. “And the widening of my life, and my hips, is really just the true gift of my husband Danny (Moder), who I would be so lonely without.” Without a doubt she looks very happy and satisfied with life right now. She three kids and though is not in the spotlight as some of the other moms in Hollywood are it shows that she is a normal mother to her kids and is not expansive at making huge fake comments. It’s the fact that she wants to lead a normal life, she loves being a wife and a mother and enjoys cooking and all the other things that go with being a wife and not a super star that she is even today. She not like Eva who has to shout that she is good domestic women and the others who have to make a statement while Julia says nothing and that’s a statement in it’s self.

The reason she gave for canceling was pink eye (and I don’t’ blame her if that’s true) - and to be honest with you, no one should come running when Oprah calls. She just another person who wants to exploit Brit’s life. And anyways Oprah wouldn’t have the intention of helping her and getting some doc to sit and talk to her, she would have made her cry again by asking some personal questions about her sons. Why would she call her back? To be honest, I’d be surprised to find out that this story is even true. I’d never thought it to be Oprah’s personality to “call personally” to get someone on her show, which is obviously having major issues at this time in their life. The whole this is just not her style, at least now right NOW in her life. I could see her doing something like this years down the road after Britney got her shit together. I think its all bullshit.

Veteran Hollywood actor Fred Thompson’s hopes of contending in the 2008 presidential election have been dashed after his campaign was savaged by critics. All of America, you were not only stupid enough to vote for GWB twice but are stupid enough to admit it now after the whole world knows what a total mess he’s made of everything he’s come in contact with. I’d elaborate but I’m limited to 1500 characters. Thompson is alright except that he’s a Republican. I don’t know why people hate Hillary like they do. If she kicks half as much X@@##! As Bill did as president maybe we can return to the good old days of peace and prosperity. More so anyone who wishes to be the President of this great country should have to things in mind, one that the security of this country and it’s people should be on the top of his agenda and second that he should not be calling for war on Iran or some other country just in the name of security.
