Reese Witherspoon is pregnant with her third child


Reese Witherspoon, 30, and Ryan Phillipe, 31, have been married since 1999. They have two children: a daughter, Ava, 6, and a son, Deacon, 2.

After Reese won the Oscar for best actress this year it was reported that her marriage was in trouble due to Ryan’s jealousy of her skyrocketing career. Reese denied that anything was wrong and made her relationship work through sheer willpower and feminine fertility.

In mid-March Reese was said to be trying for another baby to help save her marriage, and judging from these pictures things went according to plan. You can see a baby bump when the wind blows against this loose summer coverup she’s wearing. When she’s a little further along, she can be expected to acknowledge the pregnancy.

Thanks to Just Jared for posting these pictures of Reese and pointing out her baby bump. She is seen on the beach in Malibu with her daughter Ava, 6. Ryan is seen picking up takeout for his family.

“The Breakup” sucks ass


The verdict is partially in and Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn’s new movie, “The Breakup,” is said to be terrible:

Audiences expecting a good time will instead be rewarded with wildly unsympathetic lead characters and uncomfortably long stretches without a laugh in sight. While they might initially be drawn in by the marketing department`s promise of something a lot more entertaining, the end box office result will likely be less than amicable.

Initially meeting at a baseball game, Chicago tour guide Gary Grobowski (Vaughn) manages to persuade art gallery employee Brooke Meyers (Aniston) to dump her male friend and go out with him basically by buying her a hot dog.

Flash forward to the couple living in what isn`t exactly domestic bliss, with Brooke running around getting ready to host a dinner party for their families while Gary contentedly parks himself in front of the television.

With the cracks in their relationship finally reaching the breaking point, Brooke finally calls Gary for the jerk he is, but in her little schemes to make him realize the errors of his ways, Brooke only ends up matching him in the bad behavior department.

But what could have at best played out like a wilted “War of the Roses” ends up looking a lot more like Rob Reiner`s misbegotten “The Story of Us.”

As for whether Aniston and Vaughn have broken up too, the verdict is still out. We reported that they seemed to be on the outs, at least according to Star Magazine, which said last week that Vince wanted time off from the relationship. US Weekly claimed to have an exclusive that they snuck off together after the LA premiere party, though.

Judging from the pictures at the Chicago premiere of “The Break Up” on Sunday, they still kept their distance. They were photographed together yesterday at the Cubs Reds game however, at which Vince threw the first pitch.

Aniston is said to have phoned Brad’s manager to wish Brad and Angelina best wishes after the birth of their baby this weekend. That’s rather weak considering she could have written a card or given a charitable donation in Shiloh’s honor.

We’ll just have to wait and see if these two last, but their relationship doesn’t seem strong and we doubt they’ll go the distance.

Ben Affleck had a terrible headache


Ben Affleck had a migraine so bad he went to the emergency room yesterday:

Affleck was driven to the hospital by his concerned wife, Jennifer Garner, at around 2:30 p.m. He was released about two hours later. A spokesman for the actor-turned director said Affleck was “recuperating at home.”

“Ben Affleck was treated for a migraine at Mount Auburn Hospital in Cambridge today,” said a statement from publicist Ken Sunshine. “He was released (yesterday) afternoon.”

According to an eyewitness, the couple left their rented Cambridge home just outside Harvard Square with Garner at the wheel of their Jeep and Affleck lying down in the back seat. They arrived at the hospital a few minutes later and Garner helped Affleck out of the car.

“He looked kind of sore,” said photographer Paul Adao, who saw the couple at the emergency room. “His wife ran around the car and helped him get out. He was a little shaky and she was asking, ‘Are you OK?’ that type of thing.”

Adao said Affleck appeared to be holding a towel or an icebag in his left hand.

About two hours later the couple emerged with Ben wearing a police cap and an emergency room bracelet on his wrist. A driver backed their Jeep up to the door and they quickly jumped in and made the short trip back to their home.

Two hours is a pretty short period of time to get in and out of the emergency room on a holiday no less, and he was undoubtedly given star treatment.

This isn’t Ben’s first terrible headache. He admitted suffering from post-spinal tap headaches after a spinal tap to check for meningitis in 2004. (I had a spinal tap a while ago, and was laid up for like a week with a headache.)

The article says that Affleck is probably stressed from working as a first-time big budget director on the film
“Gone, Baby, Gone,” starring his brother Casey Affleck and now filming in his hometown of Cambridge, MA. That could be true but he should insist on an MRI. I have a friend from college who had terrible migraines and was told it was stress. It turns out she had a brain tumor. Last I heard from her a couple years ago she was doing fine a few months after surgery. True story.

Colin Farrell to marry costar Lake Bell? (Happy 30th Colin!)


About six weeks ago, we reported that Colin Farrel was dating Lake Bell, 27, his co-star in “Pride and Glory,” now filming. It seems that the relationship is going well and people are saying that Farrel is ready to marry Bell.

Colin Farrell is all too ready to get married.

The notoriously wild actor is reportedly ready to get hitched to his “Pride and Glory” co-star Lake Bell. The two have been dating for two months.

“Colin is a changed man since he went into rehab in December and he wants to find someone to settle down with,” a source told the Irish Mirror. “In the last five years he’s found it hard to settle down but he says that Lake has been his rock and he can’t live without her.” His rep couldn’t be reached for comment.

Farrell just got sober and he turns 30 tomorrow. He has a hard-partying past and it would be surprising if the marriage lasted if he rushed into it after just two months of dating. He may be ready to settle down, but he should try a long commitment first. Not that we’re discouraging Farrell - it would be pretty amusing to see him married with such little forethought.

Here are some pictures with Farrell out with what looks like Bell in the beginning of May. [via]

Mariah Carey’s $1 billion Legs of Godzilla


You probably heard that Mariah Carey insured her overrated legs for a staggering $1 billion. It was news when model Rachel Hunter’s legs were insured for $1 million in her heydey. Heidi Klum’s legs are currently insured for a relatively realistic $2 million, but she’s an international supermodel, not a hedonistic singer who could easily let up on her exercise routine and become a size 14. (This is a woman who doesn’t even lift her own drinks, so it’s doubtful that she even approaches Janet Jackson’s level of fitness commitment.)

Mariah is fronting PETA-hated Gillette’s “Legs of a Goddess” Godzilla campaign, and has taken out a $1 billion insurance policy on her legs as a result. Those razors better be smooth, because a little knick could cost the insurance company six figures. If she falls or something, they’re bankrupt.

Mariah will be on tour soon, and will probably be dancing and stuff, but $1 billion is way excessive. Britney had to cancel her tour two years ago due to a knee injury, but it’s hard to imagine the damage being that high if Mariah is laid up for a while.

Mariah appeared at Radio City Music hall yesterday for a press conference announcing her role as the Gillette spokesperson. She posed with a 16-foot likeness of her own legs after a 20 pound weight loss, making me wonder where the rest of the giant Mariah went. Are those legs attached to a huge evil Mariah monster that’s ready to take over Manhattan?

Michelle Rodriguez gets off easy


Michelle Rodriguez was released from jail after serving a mere 4 hours of a 60 day sentence for violating parole. We initially thought she was arrogant and foolish for taking jail time instead of community service for an earlier DUI violation. She only served 65 hours of a 5 day sentence for that conviction, and praised the merits of jail, saying she sang show tunes, wrote poetry, and got along with the other inmates. The prospect of so much jail time seemed trying for the “Lost” actress, who was said to be “solemn-looking” while leaving court after sentencing. She got off with even less time served now, though, making it seem like she’s working the system:

TMZ has learned Michelle Rodriguez’s 60-day DUI jail sentence turned into four hours and 27 minutes behind bars — a byproduct of overcrowding and budget problems in LA’s jails.

The ‘Lost’ star checked herself into jail last Thursday to begin a 60-day sentence for DUI-related probation violations. At the time, the star said she would serve her time, then flee the country for France.

But a spokesman for the LA city attorney’s office said Rodriguez was released after just less than four and a half hours as part of a book and release program typical for non-violent offenders with sentences of less than 90 days. Steve Whitmore, a spokesman for the LA County Sheriff’s Department, said the early release program was implemented in 2002 “as a last resort” to meet budget cuts that reached $180 million.

Surely someone pulled some strings for Rodriguez, or maybe this is standard procedure as suggested.

Last week Rodriguez told photographers that she was moving to France, because “people don’t bother you there,” but she was out in LA at the “Ultimate Fighting Championship” boxing match on Saturday, as seen in the header image, above. She seems to be enjoying herself, while her friends look like they’d rather be anywhere else.

Rodriguez still has 30 days of alcohol rehab to serve along with years of probation. Maybe that will help keep her sober since she hasn’t faced stiff consequences yet for multiple DUI violations.

All rappers hate Oprah


Oprah has pissed off several hip hop stars including Ludacris, 50 Cent, and now Ice Cube. The rapper-actor has joined the chorus of male artists who claim that Oprah doesn’t give them equal air time. Ice Cube makes a good point when he notes that Oprah puts rapists and child molestors on the air, but doesn’t invite hip hop artists:

“I’ve been involved in three projects pitched to her, but I’ve never been asked to participate,” the rapper-actor tells FHM magazine. “For Barbershop, she had Cedric the Entertainer and Eve on, but I wasn’t invited. Maybe she’s got a problem with hip-hop.” Cube adds: “She’s had damn rapists, child molesters and lying authors on her show. And if I’m not a rags-to-riches story for her, who is?”

A few weeks ago Oprah gave a ridiculous excuse for her white middle-aged female-centric show, saying she loves hip hop and even has some black artists on her iPod:

“I listen to some hip-hop,” she told DJ Ed Lover. “You know, I’ve been accused of not liking hip-hop and that’s just not true. I got a little 50 (Cent) on my iPod. I really do. Love ‘In Da Club.‘ … Love that, and you know, love Jay-Z, love Kanye (West), love Mary J. (Blige).”

That’s like Bill O’Reilly saying he has black and gay friends. (Ok, it’s not that bad, but it’s a pretty lame excuse.)

Maybe Oprah will realize that rap isn’t taboo and that her audience likes a good story from any background. Africa is cool enough for Oprah, but black culture in America is something she filters through her clueless, snotty viewpoint. She’s old and richer than everyone in the world. It’s about time she realized her show can’t remain relevant and retires.

Exes Johnny Depp and Kate Moss to star on screen together


Johnny Depp and Kate Moss, who split up in 1997 after dating on and off for three years, may play ill-fated lovers Michael Hutchence and Paula Yates in a film about the INXS frontman’s life.

Depp, who will play the late INXS frontman, split up with the supermodel in 1997 after a stormy three-year romance.

But he is happy for Moss to get close again, and play Hutchence’s girlfriend Paula Yates in the rock movie.

An insider said: “Johnny was asked if it would be a deal breaker for him if Kate was cast.”

“He said ‘Not as far as I’m concerned.’ He figures there’s been enough water under that bridge.

“Obviously director Nick Egan hoping there’s still enough chemistry between them that will translate to the screen.

“It has been claimed she never got over him and in the film they’ll have to appear deeply in love.”

Both Yates and Hutchence are now dead. Hutchence was found dead in November, 1997, in a hotel room in Sydney. He was naked and died of self-suffucation from a leather belt. Yates insisted that Hutchence’s death was an accident, and that he was practicing dangerous auto-erotic asphyxiation, or trying to increase sexual pleasure through lack of oxygen. Yates died in 2000 from a heroin overdose. She was said to be distraught over losing custody of her three ridiculously-named daughters to her ex husband, Bob Geldolf. Yates and Hutchence are survived by a ten year-old daughter, Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily. (Yes, that is her name.)

While Moss has her share of drug abuse and tragedy, which may help her relate to her character, it is unclear whether she can act. She has only bit parts to her credit. If she can act it will be an impressive role to add to her resume.

With Johnny Depp in the lead, people are sure to be interested in the film, and it could be an incredible story of the late Hutchence.

Here is Kate Moss leaving her home on 5/25. [via]. Her left cheek looks swollen and there was a report that Pete Doherty hit her, but her publicist insists it’s just a badly angled photograph.

The Jolie-Pitt African Adventure Video


Angelina and Brad are supposedly making a documentary of their adventures in Africa post-Shiloh to help African causes. This sounds like BS and the source is The Sun, but maybe it’s true:

The Hollywood super couple have been recording their adventures with a view to showing fans what they’ve been up to in southern Africa.

And they will allow their four-day-old daughter SHILOH NOUVEL to be filmed for the documentary too — along with their two adopted youngsters Maddox and Zahara.

A source close to the couple said: “Brad and Angelina want to put out a serious social documentary about all the great things the country has to offer.

“Angelina is in love with Namibia and wants fans to learn more about it and experience what she has experienced.

“Maddox is in the film along with Zahara, and they have agreed to include some footage of their new baby.

“They know that any documentary which includes anything personal about their lives will help them get their message across.”

They’re so secretive that we doubt this is true. We’ll believe it when we see it.

Columnist Liz Smith of the NY Post says that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie didn’t top the Yahoo! buzz list this holiday weekend, and that they’re fools for sequestering themselves in Namibia since they’re only increasing the value of photographs:

OVER a Memorial Day weekend filled with Mideast carnage and death, I decided out of curiosity - and to escape real news - to click onto the Yahoo! “buzz log” category of most searched-for actors online.
I expected proud new parents Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to top the list. Nope. Miss Jolie was No. 5 out of the top 20. Mr. Pitt was the only male in the Top 20, at No. 17. Jessica Alba was No. 1. Interesting. Could it be that for all the media screeching, people aren’t that fascinated by Brad and Angelina? Perhaps they really didn’t have to go hide themselves away in Namibia, with all of that little country’s official protection, to safely have their child? Maybe, like Tom and Katie, they could have had their baby right here in the good old U.S.A., with normal-type security. After all, nobody barged in on Miss Holmes in delivery, and surely her birth-giving was as eagerly anticipated as Angelina’s. You know, privacy, when it is really wanted, can be achieved. When Brad married Jennifer Aniston, only one photo was released - a simple black-and-white shot of the then-happy couple. Nobody crashed the ceremony. John F. Kennedy Jr. was married and on his way to his honeymoon with Carolyn Bessette before the press even knew about it. What have Brad and Angelina accomplished with their mania for seclusion (aside from their generous financial donation to Namibia’s natal care facilities - a lovely gesture)? Now the stakes to “get” them are even higher, now their re-entry to the United States will be a riot of attention. Now they will feel even more exhausted and beleaguered by the media.

By having Shiloh in Namibia Angelina did bring a lot of publicity to African causes, and she achieved some privacy through the brute force of the Namibian government and her own nasty security guards. It looks like she achieved her goal after all. Releasing a video doesn’t sound like something she would bother with.
