Michelle Williams Does It Again - Looks Beautiful In Photos

Sassy Smith — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 19:33:00 GMT

Michelle Williams - mother of Heath Ledger's daughter, Matilda Rose - is in the April issue of Elle and she looks amazing. She is a natural beauty without even really trying. Michelle talks about the birth of Matilda and how she's a New York kid and her greatest prize. She also reveals her guess at who former co-star Katie Holmes was dating back in 2005 when the news broke.

Photos and article highlights after the jump

Giving birth to her daughter:

"It's all about water. I was in and out of the bathtub my entire labor -- 24 hours. I don't remember the pain, or the sensation. But I do remember quietly talking to myself and saying, "Okay, you don't have to tell anybody what you're thinking right now. You don't have to tell Heath, you don't have to tell the nurse, you don't have to tell the doctor: You are never, ever doing this again. It can be a secret just for us." [laughs]

I was trying to tell myself, "Remember what I'm saying now. This pain is too great to bear. You won't do this again." And here I am today, and the next one I'll do at home! You totally forget. It's nature's trick."

Her break-up with Heath and her greatest prize:

"All in all, how long has it been? Six months. It's been long and not long. It feels like yesterday and it feels like long ago, but not six months. The distraction of work is utterly invaluable.

When I have too much free time, that's when things start to get a little messy. [Tears pool in eyes, then she smiles.] Matilda's the prize. She's bigger to me than any relationship, bigger than the awards. She's what came out of it."

Her 'Brooklyn baby':

"We were in the car today, driving back from this indoor playspace, and Matilda started talking to herself in the back. She said, "I'd like an everything bagel with butter, please!"

She's such a New York kid. That's what she's thinking about: going home. Every morning we go to the coffee shop. She's ready to go back and get her bagel, and I'm ready to get a really good cup of coffee."

About hearing Katie Holmes was 'dating someone':

"I was shocked. Busy [Philipps, another DC co-star and Michelle's close friend, now 5 months along with a girl, called and said, "You're never going to believe who Katie's with now." And I'm like, "Who?" And she said, "Who's the biggest movie star you can think of?" I said -- this is embarrassing -- 'Tom Selleck?!'"

Michelle Williams & Naomi Watts Speak About Heath

Everybody Still Loves Heath

Heath Ledger Died of Natural Causes?

Sassy Smith — Sun, 27 Jan 2008 02:41:00 GMT

TMZ is reporting that actor Heath Ledger may have died of natural causes - although only 28, it's certainly possible. They said:

It sounds strange, but sources intimately connected with the Heath Ledger investigation tell TMZ it's possible the actor died of natural causes.

The reason they think that -- it's now appearing that the level of toxicity (from medication) in Ledger's system was low enough that it may not have caused his death. These sources say Heath's heart stopped. It could have been a heart attack but it's not certain, at least not yet. Although it's bizarre that a 28-year-old could die of natural causes, it happens.

I hope when the full toxicology reports come back, that there are answers, obviously for his family's sake. It would be awful to have to live with the uncertainly of what really happened especially for his loved ones.

Katie Holmes on Letterman

Whit Honea — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 16:46:00 GMT

Katie Holmes was on Letterman last night. He's getting all the big stars since they don't have to cross a picket line to be a guest. There's a nice bit about their respective families and another clip of her movie Mad Money, which looks like you'd be mad to spend your money on, but that's just me. Katie actually looks pretty hot when she doesn't have a crazy man on her arm.

Katie Holmes is the New Audrey Hepburn

Sassy Smith — Fri, 28 Dec 2007 13:06:00 GMT

Actress Katie Holmes is the new Audrey Hepburn according to Diane Keaton. Those are some pretty big movie star shoes to fill!

Keaton, who appears along side Holmes in the 2008 movie Mad Money insists the 29 year old actress has the grace and charisma to become the world's next generation great humamitarian icon. She tells Parade.com, "It's just so beautiful to watch a girl become a young woman. I tell you, I think it's a miracle. I remember how I was at that age and how my obsession was to be Audrey Hepburn, my idol. Now Katie has the candle. She's more adventurous than I am. Being the wife of Tom Cruise, she's been thrown into a world you can't really be prepared for, yet Katie handles it with grace." I'd have to agree with Diane on that point.

"Like Audrey Hepburn, she's like celebrity royalty. She has a calm center in the storm of whatever is going on around her."

Katie Holmes Takes Creepy To A Whole New Level

HerBadMother — Thu, 13 Dec 2007 22:35:00 GMT

Katie Holmes freaks me out. I know - join the club - but still: sometimes it's like she's trying to freak everyone out. Like when she says shit like this:

"Tom likes me in a suit and a mini every now and then. I like it when he likes it. It makes me blush."

Minis? Blush? Um, ew. I don't want to know what kind of weird shit Tom is telling you to tell the world about your creepy non-existent sex-life so that people will think that he's, like, straight or whatever. But at least if you're going to make shit up, make it convincing, and don't editorialize with bizarre statements like 'it makes me blush.' That is both mind-bogglingly creepy and so obviously fabricated that it proves, in four words, that you have either had your brain removed and replaced by a computer that is programmed by Cruise's private team of robotic scientists, all of whom live in their parents' basements and think that grown women really wear mini-suits and say things like 'that makes me blush,' , or that you have been so fully subjected to Scientology mind-screwage that all those old Dawson's Creek lines tucked away in the darker corners of your brain are scrambling and reconstituting themselves into bad science-fiction-slash-soft-porn dialogue. Or both.

Either way, it's freaking me out. Stop.

Katie Holmes Running Boston Marathon? And Getting Preferential Treatment?

Sassy Smith — Sun, 09 Dec 2007 13:04:00 GMT

Katie Holmes is reportedly getting set to run another marathon - The Boston Marathon, which takes place April 21st, 2008.

Holmes ran a marathon in New York a few weeks back and is once again wanting to put on her running shoes. Perhaps she'd better put the brakes on for just a moment though.

A source said that the reason Holmes is keen on running is because she wants to better her time [she finished in more than five hours] because it embarrassed her to have such a poor running time. However, if you read the official qualifying rules HERE, based on Katie's age and performance, she wouldn't qualify for the April 2008 marathon. Unless, Katie is really a woman in her 70's. Wow, she looks great for her age!

The source was quoted as saying, "Katie was really embarrassed that her time was so bad on the NY marathon. She wants to improve her time and show that she can do it faster."

Apparently hubby Tom Cruise was being extremely supportive of her running, especially as Scientologists believe that "sweating cleans out the toxins."

That's all well and good but if she "qualifies" to run, then it would appear that someone is pulling strings for her and giving her preferential treatment. Not fair!
