Kiefer Boozes Hits The Bar Scene With Daughter

Josh loposer — Tue, 26 May 2009 19:30:00 GMT

After his recent brushes with Johnny Law, you might think Kiefer would try to lay low and keep away from anything that might annoy his probation officer. Instead, The NYP is reporting that he was out "drinking Dewar's on the rocks" with his daughter over the weekend.

Maybe Kiefer thinks of himself of a protective father, teaching his recently of age daughter Sarah Jude the ins and outs of responsible alcohol consumption. But with his record, it kinda looks like he's passing on some of his not-so great habits to the next generation.

After all, Sutherland might not be the best representative for moderation. Not only is he still on probation for a DUI he received in 2007, he recently swore off strong drink after the headbutting incident.

So far, he's set a decidedly questionable example for Sarah. In fact, answering rumors that episodes of 24 have been rewritten to accommodate injuries that Kiefer suffered while partying, he said:

"I can't deny half the stuff that's been written about me has been true. I've done some stupid things. You have to take responsibility, go, 'That was embarrassing,' and move forward as best you can."

What do you think, is Kiefer just doing some important bonding her, or should he avoid booze like the plague?

Sporty Spice Melanie Chisholm's Enormous Baby Bump!

Karl Erikson — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 23:37:00 GMT

Melanie Chisholm, ex-Spice Girl, is about to burst with joy! Or burst with baby, take your pick. Mel C says she cannot wait to be a mom, and the 35-year-old singer shouldn't have to wait very long. She's expecting to give birth at any time now.

She was Battersea Evolution in London over the weekend to help host the Celebration of the Bee Gees. Melanie says she's not sure if the baby will be a girl or a boy. "I don't know and I don't want to know," she said.

Good attitude. My ex and I had no idea what the sexes of my twins were going to be and we didn't want to know. Course, that meant we had to have 2 boy names and 2 girl names ready to go, but that's okay.

Wonder how Sporty Mel C will be a few weeks after the birth?

Kevin Costner Hospitalized After Fainting

Karl Erikson — Sat, 10 Jan 2009 17:38:00 GMT

Kevin Costner spent some time in a Los Angeles hospital this week after calling 911 following a fainting spell. Kevin, 53, complained about feeling dizzy while he was driving to a meeting. Paramedics zoomed to the scene to find Kevin puking by the roadside.

The paramedics took Costner to the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and kept him overnight for tests. His publicist said, "Mr. Costner experienced some light-headedness while he was driving, was checked out at the hospital and released after tests found that everything was normal."

Kevin has 3 children with former wife Cindy Silva: Annie, 24, Lily, 22, and Joe, 20. He has another son, Liam (12) with ex-girlfriend Bridget Rooney. And of course he has son Cayden Wyatt Costner, 1-1/2, with wife Christine Baumgartner. The couple are expecting another baby some time this year.

Here's to hoping Kevin's okay. He has a new movie coming out this year, "The New Daughter," which is oddly enough a horror film. IMDB.com describes it thusly: "Costner will play John James, a single father who moves to a farm with his two kids after a painful divorce. Soon, his daughter starts behaving ominously, and Dad begins to suspect that the burial mound in a nearby field might have something to do with it."

God, I hope this isn't Pet Sematary 3.

Congratulations to world famous tennis player Lleyton Hewitt and his wife Bec. They're the proud new parents of baby boy Cruz, who was born Thursday in Sydney, Australia. Cruz has an older sister, 3-year-old Mia.

Lleyton is a former World #1 tennis player. In 2001, he was the youngest male ever to be ranked #1. He won the 2001 U.S. Open and 2002 Wimbledon men's singles titles. Now, because of some hip problems and hip surgery, he's ranked as #67 in the world. That's only 786,342 spots ahead of me.

Noah Wyle Loves Being a Hero to Son

Karl Erikson — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 21:28:00 GMT

It's been 3 years since Noah Wyle walked away from "ER." In many ways, he says, he grew up on ER, grew up as John Carter. He says he "started as a single man living in a duplex apartment with a cat, and walked off married with one child and one on the way." Now those two kids - Owen, 6, and Auden, 3 - are quite proud of their father and Noah likes it that way.

The third movie in the "Librarian" series of films on TNT comes out in a few days. It's a pretty fun group of movies akin to "Raiders of the Lost Ark." Noah says, "They're so much fun to do. My son is so close to being of the age now where he can watch them and think his father's far more heroic than he really is, and I can't think of anything better!"

If you're interested, "The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice" comes on TNT Sunday night at 8pm. Try it, I think you'll enjoy it. Fun movies for family time.

David Boreanaz Says Son is All About the Cracker

Karl Erikson — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 19:02:00 GMT

"Bones" star David Boreanaz says that getting 6-year-old son Jaden Rayne interested in church was a simple task. Jaden was fascinated by the Communion wafer during Mass with his father a few years back. David says, "He wanted to go to Communion with me, and I said 'Well, you can come up but you can't have the Eucharist because you're not confirmed, you haven't had your first Communion.'"

This did not sit well with little Jaden. "So as he got closer and closer to the priest, giving them out, he had that look of, like, he really wanted the cracker. So on the way back after I got my cracker, he was in tears. And I said, 'Well one day you will go to Catholic School and study for your first communion and whatnot, and get your cracker.'"

Well, the crackers are in the works now. Jaden just started attending Catechism. Confirmation won't be far behind and then Jaden will no longer be shunned like the rest of the heathen.

Jaden is the first child for David and wife Jaime Bergman.

Now go watch "Bones." It's one of the best shows on TV. Go now, add it to your Season Pass on Tivo and don't say I never gave you anything.

Clint Eastwood: Older But Better Father

Karl Erikson — Sun, 30 Nov 2008 18:33:00 GMT

Clint Eastwood is 78. He's been in a ton of movies, and directed some really phenomenal films, as well. He also has 7 kids, including 11-year-old daughter Morgan. Clint says that age is just a number, though. He takes lots of family time, saying that his "daughter takes precedence over everything."

Clint says he's a much better father now, especially since he doesn't have to go traipsing all around the world like he did in younger days. He even supports Morgan's sports endeavors. "I go to all the softball games and look ridiculous out there because almost everybody's got a much younger father than me. But it's fun. I think you appreciate a lot more when you get to my age."

Clint's other kids are daughters Kimber, 44, Alison, 36, Kathryn, 20, and Francesca, 15, and sons Kyle, 40, and Scott, 22.

Killers' Brandon Flowers Says Fatherhood Gives Life Context

Karl Erikson — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 22:37:00 GMT

With the release of their new album "Day & Age" coming next week, The Killers are preparing for a world tour. Frontman Brandon Flowers, 27, says it's difficult to tour when he has 16-month-old Ammon at home with his wife Tana. Tana "gets to stay home and do fun things with the baby," Brandon says. "Our kids are gonna be lucky." Of course, his recording time and all that world traveling to support his music has its price.

"He cries when I go to the store. And then if I'm gonna go for a month I think, 'Is he gonna remember me?' It's hard. It's scary. But we'll figure it out. People have been doing it for a while."

His son helps his faith, Brandon says. And while he still doesn't quite "feel like a man," he says that Ammon has taken him "a giant step" closer to the goal. "I'm trying my best to become one," he says. "And a good one. Fatherhood puts it all in context. I'd always think of how much I wanna devote my life to what I do and that just hit a brick wall. 'Uh, I really gotta rethink thing.'"

Ammon is Brandon's and Tana's first child. They married 3 years ago. The new Killers album drops next week. And dare I say it? The first track is killer. Listen yourself.

He's also looking for a new house, since he just moved out of Anna Nicole Smith's house in the Bahamas.

"We've been looking at houses," says Larry. "I've found something in an area that has a lot of kids. I'm parenting under the microscope. I make good decisions. Maybe not traditional decisions, but we're not a traditional family."

Yeah, your traditional family only watches reality TV.

Daily Show's Rob Corddry Welcomes Second Daughter

Karl Erikson — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 22:13:00 GMT

Rob Corddry, former correspondent for "The Daily Show," and his wife Sandra welcomed their second daughter early yesterday morning. The little darling - Marlo Stevenson Corddry - has a big sister, Sloane Sullivan, who is now 2.

A rep says, "Mother and daughter are doing well."

The couple announced the sex of the baby in September and Rob, 37, joked that "Sloane is pretty set on the name 'Freeka.' She also likes 'Laurie Berkner,' but that sounds weird in front of Corddry. We may just go with 'Baby the Entertainer' in case she grows up to be a black comedian."

Rob can be seen most recently in Oliver Stone's George Bush movie, "W." He plays White House Spokesman Ari Fleischer.

Congratulations Rob and Sandra! Welcome to the world, Marlo. You've got one funny, funny daddy.

Matt Damon Consoles His Little Girl

Karl Erikson — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 14:37:00 GMT

Matt Damon and his wife, Luciana Barroso, were recently seen at LAX airport with their two beautiful girls, Isabella, 2, and Gia Zavala, 2 months. Isabella was not a happy camper, either. She cried a ton of crocodile tears as the family went through security.

Returning from promoting OneXOne, a charity which looks to end hunger and suffering for poverty-stricken children in the States and Africa, Matt says he's going to involve his girls in the charity. Isabella and Gia will go with dad to some humanitarian missions overseas so he can teach them about the people that have far less than we do.

"The way you have to parent them is to show them the world," Matt says. "Explaining the world can only go so far. You can read about devastation every morning - it’s on the front page of the newspaper. But when you actually go there and see it, you realize this isn’t something you can turn the page on."

Matt has a few movies coming out next year: "Green Zone," "The Informant," and "The Human Factor." "Margaret," which he filmed last year is also scheduled to come out next year.

Danny Bonaduce Paying $16,000 a Month in Support

Karl Erikson — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 15:03:00 GMT

Danny Bonaduce, 49-year-old ex-child star of "The Partridge Family" and a reality TV star in his own right, has finalized his divorce with ex Gretchen. The father of two - 13 and 7 - has agreed to joint custody, alimony, and child support. The "Breaking Bonaduce" star is officially on the market again, ladies. And let me tell you something, he pays well.

Danny is a radio personality for CBS, making $500,000 a year. His reality show "I Know My Kid's a Star" made him $280,000.

So how much does an ex-wife get? Apparently, you get $10,000 a month in alimony. And then there's the $6,000 a month for child support. Are you freaking KIDDING me? Who the hell needs $16,000 a month to get by? As our own lovely Sassy Smith said to me in email, $16,000 is more than some people make in a YEAR.

What kind of school supplies and clothes are these kids needing that they need $6,000 a month?

Hell, I think I'm gonna sleep with Danny Bonaduce. I can be very bendy. Daddy needs a new pair of shoes.
