Ben Stiller Hospitalized

Sassy Smith — Wed, 24 Dec 2008 18:07:00 GMT

Ben Stiller was hospitalized over the weekend in NYC - so what happened to the 43-year-old comedian and actor?

No worries, he should still be able to wrap presents for Ella, 6, and Quinlin, 3, although he might be a bit slow going. Still apparently broke his hand.

His publicist Kelly Bush said, "I can confirm that he broke his hand snowboarding."

Stiller was admitted to Mount Sinai Hospital on Sunday and treated for the fracture. While no other details were made public, it's believed one of the hospital's top hand specialist was called in to treat him.

Hope you're better soon Ben - you've got two kids to chase around!

Fiona Bruce, her son Sam and daughter Mia were among the celebrities attending the London premiere of Madagascar Escape: 2 Africa.

It must have been very hard not to name the movie Madagascar 2: Electric Boogaloo. I know it's hard for me not to call it that.

Ben Stiller looks a little uncomfortable in this picture. He's having fun here at the premier but not quite sure about the life size lion.

Have you seen Madagascar 2? I haven't yet. We have had the sick in our house for a month, so sad to say, we haven't been anywhere

Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor: No More Kids

Karl Erikson — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 22:05:00 GMT

Ben Stiller says that his two "incredible" children are enough for him and wife Christine Taylor. The couple's children, Ella Olivia and Quinlin Dempsey, are included in the new movie Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, and Ben says "they're ridiculously cute at 6 and 3."

Despite their glowing love for children, Ben and Christine don't plan to expand the family any more. Ben says they're "happy where we're at right now." Christine says, "Two is enough for now. Three's off." She thinks a third would throw everything off kilter.

"Two is a handful. I feel very fortunate," says Ben.

Ben Stiller Wants Normal Childhood for Kids

Charlie Sheen is a Fashion Maverick

Whit Honea — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 15:33:00 GMT

Seriously, isn't it a bit embarrassing when your kids have more style than you do? I suppose it's unavoidable, but I like to think I have at least until middle school before I cause my kids this sort of shame.

How the heck was Charlie Sheen scoring all of those women dressing like this? I mean the ones he didn't pay for.

Ben Stiller Wants Normal Childhood for Kids

Karl Erikson — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 14:43:00 GMT

Ben Stiller, star of movies such as "Meet the Parents" and "Zoolander," has been part of the show business world from the get-go. His parents are Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara, after all. But as for Ben's kids - Ella Olivia, 6, and Quinlin Dempsey, 3 - he wants them to "have as much of a regular childhood as possible."

"My daughter is not that interested in movies," Ben says. "She'd rather be playing with her dolls, which is good. I think that's healthy. My son sort of gets show business but he's also more involved with his trains."

Of course, if Ben's kids decide to go into the biz, he'll be totally supportive. Ben is married to actress Christine Taylor, 37. He's starring in the new movie "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" and the upcoming "Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian." He enjoys making movies that are accessible to his kids now.

"It's great to be able to share with them something they can enjoy," says Ben, 42. There's not a lot of films of mine I can show to them but we'll get to them eventually. I don't know how long it will take until they can see Dodgeball or even Heavyweights. But I'm guessing we'll get to both of them before There's Something About Mary."

Um, yeah. Quite a while, I'm sure.

Babble Talk: The Cast of Madagascar 2

There was a brief moment where it looked like I was going to be sitting down with the cast of Madagascar 2, and as such I scheduled my life around the possibility. Turns out L.A. is too far in the boonies for a group of New York zoo animals. Luckily, Babble is bi-coastal and Meghan Pleticha was able to enjoy some star shine in the big city.

Check out the interview and you'll see why I'm so envious.

Madagascar Sequel is a Family Affair for Ben Stiller and Jada Pinkett Smith

Karl Erikson — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 17:01:00 GMT

When Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa comes out in the theaters on November 7, it won't just be the lovable characters from the first flick. Yes, the original cast is back for the sequel, but the cartoon will also feature the children of Jada Pinkett Smith and Ben Stiller, another example of Hollywood nepotism at its best.

Pinkett Smith's daughter, Willow (7), and Stiller's children, Quinlin (3) and Ella (6), all won parts in the movie, which is sure to be a smash.

Willow is playing Pinkett Smith's character, Gloria, as a child and had loads of questions for her mom. Says Jada, "It was so cute because she'd been asking, 'How does that work? How does the animation thing work? Mommy, what happens?'"

Stiller laughs and says that his experience with his own children was a little different. "They don't like to be told to do anything, but when my son got in front of the microphone, he was good."

I'm looking forward to catching this one in the theater. The first one was really a lot of fun.
