Rob Lowe's Battle with Nanny is Finished

Karl Erikson — Thu, 14 May 2009 13:36:00 GMT

Rob Lowe, 45, sued a former nanny, Jessica Gibson, back in April of 2008. Supposedly, Gibson was attempting to blackmail Rob for $1.5 million. Then the nanny flipped it around, filing a sexual harrassment lawsuit against Rob, saying that he groped her and exposed himself to her repeatedly over her 7 years working for the Lowes.

Now the fight is over. Both Rob and Jessica Gibson requested that the lawsuits be dropped. I smell a settlement, but nobody's talking about that aspect. Rob Lowe has denied he did anything wrong.

This doesn't stop ALL the lawsuits, though. There's a separate legal fight with a SECOND nanny, Laura Boyce. My, Rob and wife Sheryl find the best freaking nannies, don't they?

Rob and wife Sheryl are parents to two children: Matthew, now 15, and John, now 14.

Brothers and Sisters' Rachel Griffiths Much Nicer When Preggers

Karl Erikson — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 12:36:00 GMT

The wardrobe department on the show "Brothers and Sisters" says they like Rachel Griffiths just the way she is: pregnant. "Apparently," says Rachel, 40, "I'm really nice pregnant. The wardrobe department begged me to never have this baby! They said, 'We love you pregnant; you're so much nicer.' Maybe I'm less hormonal."

This will be Rachel's third child with husband Andrew Taylor. The baby is due in July and will be younger sibling to Banjo Patrick, 5, and Adelaide Rose, 3-1/2.

Rachel Griffiths Having Pot Luck Delivery

Karl Erikson — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 13:34:00 GMT

40-year-old star of "Brothers and Sisters" Rachel Griffith's says she's all about the surprises. She's preggers and due in July with her third child. She also has Banjo Patrick, 5, and Adelaide Rose, 3-1/2, but with the new baby she won't be "cheating" to learn the sex ahead of time.

"I found out with the first two," Rachel says. "So, I've got one of each. I have got a boy, I have got a girl, and we are up for the potluck."

She says that hubby Andrew Taylor is already playing around with names. "There is a lot of pressure" to come up with a great name. After all, they already have a Banjo and and Adelaide. "It's tough now. I'm less oriented to finding an Australian eccentric name I should say. I actually do love the name America."

I say Vladimir. It's waiting on a comeback. I've maintained this for decades.

Rachel Griffiths: No More Sucking My Stomach In!

Sassy Smith — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 14:07:00 GMT

We told you a few days ago that Brothers & Sisters star Rachel Griffiths is pregnant with her third child - and the 40-year-old actress is glad the news is out. She can stop trying to suck her stomach in! She's also revealed her due date...

...Baby will arrive this July! Griffiths said she's sailing through this pregnancy and feels "great."

She said, "I feel great - it's just great. I'm due in July. I'm in my second trimester and it's just amazing. I'm just relieved I don't have to suck my stomach in anymore."

Adding, "Not that it fooled anyone the other day [at the Golden Globes]."

There was much chatter about her gold toga-style dress at the awards ceremony, and she said it "was, like, hiding under that gold dress. I kinda wasn't ready to announce it then, but it provoked so many questions I was like, 'Alright, okay, let's just not pretend anymore.' And now I can't suck in anymore - it's out."

She and husband Andrew Taylor are already parents to son Banjo Patrick, 5, and 3-year-old daughter, Adelaide Rose.

Congrats to the happy family!

Rachel Griffiths, currently seen in "Brothers & Sisters," is preggers! Her rep told People magazine that Rachel is pregnant with her third child. Her and her husband, Andrew Taylor, already have daughter Adelaide Rose, 3, and son Banjo Patrick, 5.

While you don't often see Rachel with her accent on American TV, the 40-year-old actress is actually Australian. God, how I loved her in "Six Feet Under." Just brilliant.

Congrats to Rachel and Andrew.

Guess Who Got Fired From His Day Job

trix — Fri, 26 Dec 2008 19:37:00 GMT

Poor, poor Balthazar Getty, he's had a rough year.

He separated from his wife, had a steamy, very public affair with Sienna Miller. He split from Sienna and got back with his wife, only to be seen with Sienna shortly there after. To top it all off, he ended his year by getting fired from his Brothers and Sisters gig.

I guess that is what happens when you are so filthy rich that you just work for something to do with your time. Maybe he should have given his time to a worthwhile cause, like charity or is that what he classified Sienna as.

Good thing he has all that money to fall back on.

Calista Flockhart and Liam: He Knows If You've Been Bad or Good

Karl Erikson — Sun, 14 Dec 2008 19:07:00 GMT

So be good, for goodness' sake! It's a day of holiday shopping for Calista Flockhart and her son, Liam, 7-1/2. And there's Santa looking on in L.A. Hope he's not too hot in that getup. Sheesh, that outfit is meant for the North Pole!

Calista, star of "Brothers and Sisters" adopted Liam right after he was born in January, 2001. Now the 44-year-old actress raises him with her partner Indiana Jones...I mean, Harrison Ford.

Homewrecking Sienna Miller & Cheating Balthazar Getty Split?

Sassy Smith — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 19:35:00 GMT

Homewrecking Sienna Miller and cheating husband & father Balthazar Getty are possibly over! Miller was spotted with a mystery man outside the Cow Pub in London a couple of days ago. The couple seemed cozy and were affectionate, laughing and then taking off once they noticed the paparazzi spying on them.

According to reports, Balthazar is stalling on divorcing his wife Rosetta and he's apparently unhappy with Sienna's hard partying ways since he's a recovering drug and alcohol addict.

As well, Balthazar and Sienna were having disagreements on where they should live. Sienna hired a real estate agent to find the couple a place in London but Getty wanted to remain in the US to be near his three children.

It was also rumored that Sienna was pregnant with Balthazar's love child - however, that's not for certain.

An insider said of the couple, "They had such an animal attraction in the beginning. Now the dust has settled, there are a couple of things they have been rowing about."

Hmm, maybe Balthazar is realizing that the grass isn't always greener on the other side. Hopefully the man does right by his kids and his wife.

Harrison Ford Like You've NEVER Seen Him Before!

Sassy Smith — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 14:05:00 GMT

When I think of Harrison Ford (which isn't a lot, but still....), I think of his Indiana Jones persona, semi-tough guy, adventurous - cool. Well, he's ditched that look and gone with something a bit softer and um, greener. Harrison, girlfriend Calista Flockhart, Calista's son Liam, 7, and a friend were spotted out trick or treating. Love the peas in a pod costume!

More pics after the jump!

Liam was a Dodger Dog, his friend was a pretty princess and Calista was cute as a button as a hippie girl.

Doing their Halloween shopping, Harrison Ford takes Liam, 7, to Ursula's Costumes in Brentwood. Liam's mom and Harrison's girlfriend/fiance is Calista Flockhart. Wonder what costume Liam wound up with? I think he should go as Indiana Jones. Harrison can teach him all the signature moves.

After "Ally McBeal" wrapped for the final time, Calista Flockhart (43) took time off to be a full-time mom for a few years. She adopted her son, Liam, in 2001 during the final season of McBeal and was loving life as a mom until her role on "Brothers & Sisters" came along a couple of years ago.

And she kind of freaked out about it. "All of a sudden," she says, "I wasn't home to pick Liam up from school, and I realized it wasn't really OK, and I wasn't happy, and I was scratching my eyes out." And apparently speaking in run-on sentences.

"I couldn't believe I'd put myself in this situation." She says that her boyfriend, Harrison Ford (66), stepped in and really helped her transition back to a working mom. "I was very comforted knowing that Harrison was there. He really stepped up and became a stay-at-home dad."

I just want to know if he wears the whip around the house. Seriously, how cool would it be to have Indiana Jones as your father?

Sienna Miller Pregnant With Married Balthazar Getty's Lovechild?

Sassy Smith — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 14:08:00 GMT

Sienna Miller and married Balthazar Getty have been having a not so secret affair (ya, making out with Sienna while she's topless & then friends take pics, not so good) and now there are rumblings that the actress is pregnant with his love child.

More pics after the jump!

The 26-year-old was spotted leaving a Hollywood medical center, wearing a baggy shirt-dress and carrying an oversized bag (to hide the bump - albeit tiny), which of course has sparked the 'she's pregnant' rumors.

It's also been reported that the couple are shackin' up in L.A. as Balthazar wants to be near his children with HIS WIFE, designer Rosetta Millington. They have four kids - Cassius, 8, Grace, 7, Violet, 5, and June Catherine, almost one. Guess this means (if true), he'll be a dad of five.

Sienna's friends say she's not a homewrecker. Of course,she's not all to blame, Getty, has to take half. Both are homewreckers from what I can see.

Han(dsome) Solo and the Temple of Pumpkins

Whit Honea — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 22:31:00 GMT

Harrison Ford was seen storming the haystacks of the pumpkin patch. I assume he was looking for Calista, which is no easy task. I hope he brought a bag of sand, or feathers in this case, to put as a weight in her place when he grabs her. I don't want to see a huge pumpkin rolling down Melrose.

The Great Pumpkin Post: Calista Flockhart

Whit Honea — Tue, 16 Oct 2007 22:01:00 GMT

Refresh my memory. Calista Flockhart is younger than Harrison Ford, right? Man, I thought pumpkin patches made people feel younger.

Calista and her son Liam, along with one of his friends visited a pumpkin patch in West Hollywood.

I had no idea pumpkin patches were such hot spots.
