Angelina Jolie Plans to Adopt Another Child

Angelina Jolie is officially going to be the mother to a United Colors of Benetton family. Yes, people. It’s only a matter of time. Angelina Jolie is waiting for her newborn twins with Brad Pitt (Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline) to grow another three months before she goes to another country adoption process for her seventh child.

Jolie was interviewed on “The Today Show” with Matt Lauer on Thursday, when she was asked if she had plans to adopt another child.

On the The Today Show, Jolie said that she’s already explored options to expand her family beyond the four other children — Maddox, 7, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 2.

Since she’s already conquered Asia and Africa in the adoption process, my bets are on South America. I’m thinking Nicaragua or Columbia.

M.I.A. confirms she’s pregnant

MIA has confirmed that she’s pregnant with fiance Benjamin Brewer.

According to MTV UK:

M.I.A has confirmed that she is pregnant to Pitchfork Media, “I’m creating a baby,” she told the Web site.

The news came after the uber cool artist performed at the Diesel xXx Rock + Roll Circus in Brooklyn last weekend. It had been rumoured earlier in the year that she cancelled her tour due to pregnancy and after displaying a reasonably large baby bump on Saturday night an official confirmation was expected.

M.I.A explained that she was blown away by the news “When I found out I was pregnant and ‘Paper Planes’ was in the iTunes top 10… it seemed like the whole world was reshuffled in one week, and all my plans went out the window.”

The British singer/ producer is expecting the baby with her fiancé Ben Brewer, lead singer of the band Exit, and had an important message for her fans “I got engaged first, then I got pregnant, kids!”

Although she’s working had on the follow up to her album Kala, she’s going to take some time out “I have to do the rounds… go see my family and show them the belly.”

Let’s hope she’s not getting “high like paper,” and is looking after the baby with care.

Ricky Martin Proud Father of Twins

I know what you’re thinking. Who’s the baby mama or secret wife that we don’t know about? Those of you who thought he had a wife obviously don’t know Ricky Martin. Those of you were wondering who the baby mama is, that hasn’t been revealed yet, but the twins were born via a surrogate mother.

According to his reps, the twins were born a few weeks ago and are healthy.

“The children, delivered via gestational surrogacy, are healthy and already under Ricky’s full-time care,” said the statement. “Ricky is elated to begin this new chapter in his life as a parent and will be spending the remainder of the year out of the public spotlight in order to spend time with his children.”

Sorry folks, there was no “she bangs” for the mother. When will Martin and Clay Aiken (who also had a baby through a surrogate mother recently) come out of the closet. I mean come on, the world doesn’t really care if you are gay, Ricky. He’s already refused to comment on allegations that he’s gay and now he has a baby through a surrogate mother. Give up the secrecy already! If you don’t believe me, the image below just might convince you.

Images of the twins will be shown as soon as they are available.

Lauren Conrad’s Clothing Line Dumped by Kitson

Image from E! Online

“The Hills” star Lauren Conrad’s fashion line has been dropped from an exclusive U.S. boutique, after the collection failed to prove a hit with shoppers.

Conrad’s self-titled clothing line, The Lauren Conrad Collection, was initially picked up by celeb-frequented Hollywood boutique Kitson in hopes of producing a hit.

But according to Access Hollywood, after Conrad’s collection failed to deliver, the folks over at Kitson decided to drop the line altogether.

I’m not that surprised by this information. Although some of her clothes are really cute, her line is overall uninspiring. The outfits she wears on “The Hills” are a lot cuter than outfits in her collection. Besides, most of her  fans from working class families in middle America probably can’t afford to buy anything from her collection. Don’t feel too bad for her though, she makes enough money. On the plus side, at least she’s not attempting to sing like one of her camera-shy co-stars (imagine me saying camera shy with extreme sarcasm–or you could replace it with camera hungry–in case you haven’t figured out who I’m referring to yet).

Vivica Fox Hosts VH1’s New Show Glam God

Vivica Fox is starring in a new show on VH1 called “Glam God,” which premiere’s on August 21st, 10pm. According to VH1, the premise of the show entails “12 Stylists from all over the country” that are given the “opportunity to become the next Glam God. Some of them are aspiring stylists, while others have already established themselves in their own small circles. Now it’s time to bring it to the world’s largest stage – Hollywood.” The winner of the reality show gets $100, 000 and will get the opportunity to be a personal stylist to an A-list celeb.

Who better to judge “aspiring” celebrity status than Vivica Fox? She’s still trying herself. Maybe this will put her one notch above the title “50 cent groupie.” VH1 is getting a little ridiculous with the reality shows. Didn’t they once, long ago, actually play music videos?

VH1 should have given her a show called “How to Get Really Bad Plastic Surgery: I Did it, So Can You!”

Listen (better yet, don’t) to Heidi Montag’s New Song: “Overdosin”

Just in time for the season premiere of The Hills, Heidi came out with a new song called “Overdosin’.” Can you guess who this song is about? Surprise, surprise, she just “can’t get enough” of him.

I can’t even begin to describe how horrible this song is. I wish she would just get the hint and stop. It would be the selfless thing to do. I had to turn it off halfway because it was seriously damaging my ears (and my will to live). Check it out. What do you think?

I’m not even going to further validate it by placing it in my music category.

Jennifer Love Hewitt’s Bragging Makes Her a Hypocrite

It looks like J Love just pulled a Tyra Banks.

Just last November, tabloid pictures of Jennifer Love Hewitt vacationing in a bikini were published…and spread like wildfire. The tabloids proceeded to call her fat, displaying images of her overall normal looking body (a few butt dimples, cottage cheese thighs and all). Despite all the ridiculing, J Love decided to take a strong stance against the tabloids and the general public, committing to defend her weight, encourage women of all sizes to go to the beach and proudly rock a bikini, and remind everyone just how much she loved her body as is–a curvaceous size 2.

I’m not mad at her for losing weight. Working out, exercising, rejuvenating the mind, feeling healthy and good about yourself are always positive things in my book.

What bothers me more than anything else is the fact that she made public statements about how she loves her body, only to become just another another teeny weeny Hollywood actress chick a few months later…and then brag about it US Weekly. She is ultimately sending the message that a.) all those statements about her loving her body were untrue b.) all those girls that she pleaded with to go out and proudly flaunt their bikinis should probably just cover up or try to look as slim as her c.) actresses MUST conform to Hollywood standards to fit in and be recognized as attractive d.) if other girls want to be famous or get media attention, they should be super skinny too.

In her interview she claims that she didn’t lose the weight because of all the negative press she was receiving, but because she wanted to be healthier. If that was true, why didn’t she do it quietly, rather than to show the whole world by being the cover girl?

I actually admired the fact that she stood up for herself during those horrid days of constant belittling and trash talking. It was really refreshing to hear that she thought she looked good and was totally okay with it. I think being petite and curvier made her stand out (in a good way) from other Hollywood trash, gave her body a very soft and feminine look, and a cute “girl next door” charm. She was the girl you wanted to get to know. And I suppose having huge boobs didn’t hurt her appeal either. She epitomized every man’s fantasy by achieving the perfect combination of cute and sexy.

Instead, she just had to go pull a Tyra and take all of it back.

TA trip down memory lane: Tyra Banks being called

With Tyra, media tabloids caught her vacationing in a bikini and the next thing you know the whole country was talking about it, especially Tyra, only she was still talking about it after everyone else had already gotten over it.

Said Tyra in response to the media calling her fat, “I’m happy to be 20 or 30 pounds heavier than the average model and I felt like that was a positive image especially with what’s going on now in society with models and women hating themselves and hating their bodies.”

A few months later, she appears on magazine covers 20-30 lbs. lighter, asking “You call this fat?” I don’t think it would hurt for both of these women to be honest and say that they ARE in fact self-conscious about their bodies. Nearly all women are to a certain extent. Instead of looking it at realistically, they gave the world what they thought would be the safest, most motivating answer/response.

I am self-conscious (not to the extreme) about my body, but I don’t go around acting holier-than-thou or trying to preach some sort of message to the masses about loving your body despite having stretch marks, cellulite and muffins. That would just be fake.

Well, I guess our beloved Jennifer Love Hewitt can no longer be called Jennifer Love Hugetits ’cause those babies shrunk… I’d say probably by two cup sizes. Comes with the weight-loss territory, I suppose. Shoulda thought about that before going gym-crazy, J Love.

Janet Jackson’s Superbowl Incident Now Achieves Dictionary Status

A little while back when I wrote a post about Janet Jackson’s FCC fine relief, I thought it would be the last I would hear about the whole Janet-Superbowl situation or anything else Janet related (unless she suddenly became preggers or decided to marry Jermaine Dupri). I suppose you can never underestimate the power of wardrobe malfunctions and Janet’s exposed nipple ring–they go together like peanut butter and jelly.

Speaking of wardrobe malfunctions, that’s exactly what the new coined phrase is in the Chambers English Dictionary. Don’t ask me way, but makers of the dictionary actually made a conscious decision to add the phrase into a reference book. You know, a dictionary. A book that people refer to when they want to know the definition of a real word. I suppose as long as they don’t add bootylicious to the dictionary I can remain relatively sane. Oh, nevermind…I guess they added that one too. And that time it was the Oxford Dictionary online. We’re really making great strides in the American vocabulary here.

It is said that English is the language with the most words in the world, and I’m beginning to understand just why. We continuously scope sites like urbandictionary.com and assimilate the most ridiculous words into our everyday language right before we stick it in the dictionary.

It looks like Janet is having a really good year. First CBS got relieved of the FCC fine and now she has her own phrase. Shakespeare and Chaucer would be proud (of the latter, of course).

Kate Hudson with a Kate Moss Makeover: Hit or Miss?

Watch out catwalkers–there’s a new couture model in town. Kate Hudson traded her girl-next-door-look for a more high-fashion look. I like the old Kate Hudson, but this is definitely a hot look for her. I’m loving the make up. it’s a total transformation. She looks almost like Kate Moss to me.

Eva Mendes’ nipples too scandalous for Network TV: Calvin Klein Commercial gets banned

According to E! Online:

“Calvin Klein has opted for black and white again in its latest scent ad. Most TV stations, however, have simply opted for black.”

The latest Cavin Klein commercial, flaunting a bare Eva Mendes tossing and turning in bed (think Britney Spears in the commercial for her fragrance “Curious,” but less trashy) is apparently too hot for the American audience. Perhaps the Janet Jackson Superbowl incident has made us ever so sensitive to boobs.

The “problem” with the commercial is that Eva’s nipples are showing. I’m surprised the creative group over at Calvin Klein actually thought this would make it through American television. Well, it’s not. Sorry, America. This version will only be airing uncensored in Europe.

For all you history buffs, this isn’t the first time Calvin Klein has made a risqué ad. Check out then 16-year-old Brooke Shields in her 1981 “nothing gets in between me and my Calvins” campaign:

All I have to say is Janet’s nipples didn’t even show and she still went through all that drama for nothing!
