Nicole and Joel's Spur of the Moment Wedding Ruined by Zac Efron's Family - Video!

Whit Honea — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 17:01:00 GMT

Disney heartthrob Zac Efron and his surprisingly clothed girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens threw a little party recently and Hollywood's biggest and brightest bikini-clad B-listers were there.

Caught on video were expecting parents Nicole Richie and Joel Madden discussing an impromptu wedding! That shiz was going to happen and suddenly Efron's uncle, who, and I cannot stress this enough, is not David Arquette, ruined everything.

It's just as well, Harlow would have missed it and that would have been hard on everyone.

Is Queen Latifah Pregnant?

Sassy Smith — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 11:08:00 GMT

Queen Latifah, 38, and her (possible) partner Jeanette Jenkins have talked of adoption in the past, saying, "I've always wanted to have [babies] and adopt. When I was little, I remember seeing TV shows and a child would be adopted and be happy. I just always felt like there are so many kids out there who need a parent." However, she's not opposed to being pregnant either, and maybe hints that she could be?

Latifah (aka Dana Owens) said of having a child, "I would probably be six months pregnant before anyone knows about it, and I won't talk about the baby until after it's born." (Oh, could this mean she's pregnant now?)

Owens is currently starring in the film The Secret Life of Bees, and says she took the role because the character of "August Boatwright," was so maternal. "August was just so nuturing and maternal and comfortable in her own skin. I felt she would be fun to play, and initially I wasn't sure - hey, who knows? - I might be pregnant by the time we shoot, and this is the kind of film you could do when you're pregnant at the same time because you don't have to worry about things.

"August communicated love for the most part, and that is OK if you've got a little one in there and all the love is flowing through your mind. It could be kind of cool."

The actress says she doesn't feel the need to talk about her personal life publicly. "I don't feel the need to discuss my personal life with the media or the fans. You lose your anonymity as part of success. But there are parts of my life that I just want to keep for me and my family and friends and the person I'm with."

Oh I hope she is pregnant - she'd make a great mom, I can just tell!

Mark Wahlberg Talks to the Animals on SNL

Whit Honea — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 21:48:00 GMT

Tina Fey as Sarah Palin was the big story, but that didn't keep FameCrawler favorite Mark Wahlberg from making a cameo.

In this bit, which SNL is calling Barky Bark and the Donkey Bunch, Wahlberg (Andy Samberg) talks to the animals. They just don't talk back.

I hope he doesn't talk to his kids like this.

Tina Fey is Sarah Palin on SNL: VP Debate (VIDEO)

Whit Honea — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 04:41:00 GMT

Tina Fey as Sarah Palin on SNL. Yes, they did it again. Yes, it's hilarious.

Tina Fey portrays Sarah Palin in the VP debate with Joe Biden, played by Jason Sudeikis, moderated by Queen Latifah as Gwen Ifill.

Video (if pulled view here- we will replace as soon as possible):

Tina Fey Getting Set To Do Palin Debate Spoof This Weekend

HerBadMother — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 22:46:00 GMT

... And guess who's coming onboard to play debate-moderator Gwen Ifill?

Queen Latifah will be making a guest appearance, apparently, and will play Gwen Ifill. Which: awesome. No word on who's doing Joe Biden, though. Whoever that is, I have got all fingers crossed that they spoof that moment where Biden puts the smackdown on Palin for suggesting that she's special because she's a mom - you're a hockey mom? OH RLY? Well, my wife DIED (wipes tear).

That moment was genius. If the SNL crew could work that moment into the sketch - winking Palin and weepy Biden and all - I'd be eternally grateful.

Queen Latifah's Baby News!

Sassy Smith — Sun, 31 Aug 2008 20:11:00 GMT

Queen Latifah and her partner Jeanette Jenkins might have some baby news! Yes!

A friend told the National Enquirer, that the couple are possibly trying to adopt a baby by Christmas. "They're trying to keep it quiet because they don't want to jinx the whole thing." Queen's sister works for the New Jersey Division of Youth and Family Services, is reportedly guiding the pair through the red tape.

The couple would prefer to adopt domestically as opposed to internationally.

Latifah said, "I can understand why people go outside the U.S. You can adopt someone here, and the birth parents have three years to come back and get that child. That's terrifying." But she's sympathetic to the children here who need help, saying, "can use just as much assistance as someone from around the world. I want to do something here."

The actress said previously, "I've always wanted to have [babies] and adopt. When I was little, I remember seeing TV shows and a child would be adopted and be happy. I just always felt like there are so many kids out there who need a parent."

I hope they do have a baby (whatever way) - I love Queen Latifah, and I think she'd make a great mom!

Who's Going To Adopt Because She's Afraid Of Childbirth?

Babies For Queen Latifah!!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 22:11:00 GMT

I love Queen Latifah - she rocks! She's got such a great personality, larger than life. She and longtime girlfriend, Jeannette Jenkins are reportedly set to make their union legal under California's new gay marriage law. You know what comes after marriage - that's right, babies! Well, sometimes. Queen definitely has baby news...

Queen Latifah spoke with OK! and said she absolutely wants kids one day, "for sure."

"Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! There's the intention. I don't know when, but it's going to happen.

"It's going to have to happen eventually. I'm not sure when, but I would love to have children for sure."

The Queen does have experience working with children in the League - a new youth-service organization based in her hometown of Newark, N.J.

"We come back and contribute to the community. We try and put a different face on a city we know is not just about The Sopranos, toxic smells and all this stuff that people try and make Jersey about.

"When I knew this was coming up, [and was] asked if I would be involved, I said, 'Sure, no problem, let's do it."

The actress loves coming back to her hometown, as it gives her the chance to hang out with family and old friends, as well as help with the organization. And the support she receives from those closest to her is important in her quest to become healthy - she's lost 20 lbs on Jenny Craig. And although she's striving to be a better "her," she refuses to be someone she's not.

"I think I'm the best Queen Latifah there ever will be, but I'm not necessarily the best J.Lo, and I'm not the best Halle Berry. They are the best. I've gotta be me and let everybody else be them, and I think there's room for all of us because America looks like all of us."

Another reason to love her! She has such a great confidence and attitude. She's definitely going to make a wonderful mom.

Queen Latifah and Jeannette Jenkins Will Marry, Adopt Child

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 23:42:00 GMT

Call her a size married! Queen Latifah is rumored to be preparing to wed longtime partner and trainer Jeannette Jenkins. According to the National Enquirer the two are set to tie the knot under California's new gay marriage law. Reports also say that the two are planning to adopt a child immediately after their marriage, which is said to be planned for July.

Current Jenny Craig spokesperson Queen Latifah lives with her partner in New Jersey and Los Angeles, but has never publicly acknowledged that she is gay or that her and Jenkins are a couple. When asked about her sexual preference in an interview with Ebony magazine in 2007 she replied, “No comment on that at all. I’m done commenting on all that … It’s ridiculous”.

Congratulations to the Queen and her queen! And best of luck on their soon-to-be-arriving prince or princess.

Katie Holmes' Battle With Scientology

Karen — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 15:04:00 GMT

According to the latest issue of New Idea magazine, Katie Holmes is at odds with husband Tom Cruise over her "desperate plans to have another baby as soon as possible."

The magazine claims Katie "has her heart set on giving Suri a little playmate."

The publication further reports that Katie has sought the advice of an L.A. fertility clinic, depsite protests from the Scientologists Elders and controlling husband Tom Cruise.

There Is NO WAY Katie Holmes Is Pregnant

Karen — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 18:02:00 GMT

Katie Holmes, dressed head to toe in a slinky gun-metal grey dress, let the dress squash any pregnancy rumors at the 10th Annual Costume Designers Guild Awards held at the Beverley Wilshire Hotel last night.

(another pic and pregnancy rumors after the jump!)

Rumors flew late last month when Katie bought a bunch of baby blankets in pink and blue. A source close to the stars tried to set the truth straight: "hey, can't a girl buy some baby clothes for friends?"

It is believed the blankets are for Jennifer Lopez's babies, due to arrive ~~any day now~~ today?

Guess Who's Stomach This Is?

Karen — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 15:03:00 GMT

Click Here to See If You Are RIGHT!

Despite apparently hating her stomach, Victoria Beckham sure showed it off in this awful dress.

The 33-year-old singer and mother of three has complained in the past that

she looks "really awful naked".

She has also spoken of the toll pregnancy has taken on her shape.

"There are loads of things I don't like about my body," she said.

"I've got so much saggy skin on my stomach."

Harley Street surgeon Apostolos Gaitanis said: "It seems unlikely that this crease is a scar from caesareans, as it is above the belly button.

"It is more likely that she has lost weight very quickly and her skin has lost elasticity. It is also possible that she has had liposuction at some point, since there is hardly any fat under the skin and you can see the muscles beneath."

Katie Holmes: Wishful Thinking?

Karen — Fri, 01 Feb 2008 16:02:00 GMT

Normally Kate is dressed in figure flattering, tailored outfits, but this maternity-esque shirt has me guessing one of three things:

1) She's looking for the rumor mill to churn out a few "Is Katie Pregnant" stories (likely);

2) She's studying to be a hairdresser and liked the chic apron;

3) Tom has injected her with LRH/alien spermies and she actually is pregnant a la Rosemary's Baby.

What's with all the smirking today?

Katie Holmes' Lonely Valentine's Days

Karen — Wed, 23 Jan 2008 17:03:00 GMT

~~Willy Wonka~~ Katie Holmes recently revealed that she never celebrated Valentine's Day because she wasn't popular among boys. The Mad Money star told the press,

"I went to an all-girls school and every Valentine's Day they would announce who had flowers in the office,” she said.

"My name was never called – never."

Well those boys are probably kicking themselves now -- you're married to the "Biggest Star in Hollywood!*"

* another quote from Katie. I do not drink the Scientology water. Apparently it isn't exactly age-defining.

Katie Holmes Slims Fast on the "KH Diet"

Karen — Mon, 21 Jan 2008 17:02:00 GMT

Katie Holmes sure looked leggy last week and slim as heck on Letterman. She's lost quite a bit of weight of late and attributes it to her very own "KH Diet."

“Katie has had a hectic few months and as well as running around after Suri, she has been juggling work with a strict exercise plan,” the Daily Star quoted an insider, as saying.

“The diet called the ‘KH’ diet –for Katie Holmes –consists of a bowl of carrot soup for breakfast, followed by raw broccoli for lunch and dinner.

“Obviously Katie has a small amount of protein with the broccoli such as steamed tofu, or fish, but the green superfood is the key.

“She and Tom are buying organic broccoli by the bucket-load. Katie loves running at the moment and has been jogging a lot of late,” the insider added.

Katie Holmes Gives Hardware to Queen Latifah

Whit Honea — Sun, 20 Jan 2008 16:31:00 GMT

Katie Holmes dropped by the BET studio earlier in the week to give Queen Latifah her Golden Globe for best performance by an actress in a mini-series or motion picture made for television for her role in the HBO film Life Support.

Speaking of life support, apparently the duo's new movie Mad Money has done about as well as we all expected, which is only slightly better than a Jessica Simpson anything.

Don't worry, ladies, I'm sure you'll work again- to be clear, I'm talking to Latifah and Holmes, not Simpson.

Bad Money: Critics Pan Katie Holmes Latest Performance

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 18 Jan 2008 20:35:00 GMT

The critics have spoken, and they're not fans of Katie Holmes' 'comeback' performance in the new comedy Mad Money. The film, which also stars Queen Latifah and Diane Keaton, was being touted as Holmes' first return to the big screen since marrying Tom Cruise and giving birth to daughter Suri. Looks like Tom's latest on-screen performance is the one to watch these days.

In one of the more caustic reviews, a New York Post critic calls the movie “the most cringe-making return since Love Boat: The Next Wave" and saves his harshest criticism for Mrs. Cruise. “Holmes, with Alice Cooper hair and crazy Jim Carrey eyes, looks terrible and acts worse, unless this movie is unintentionally a lobotomy documentary,” the reviewer writes. “Whatever could have happened to her in the last couple of years to zap the talent out of her like this?”

I haven't seen the movie, but judging by the trailers I have to agree. Did anyone see Holmes in her well-reviewed film Pieces of April? Rent this movie, and tell me that the girl hasn't been brainwashed and talent-washed since then.

Mad Money at NASDAQ

Whit Honea — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 23:02:00 GMT

Who is it that decides that the cast from a movie about stealing money should ring the bell to open trading on Wall Street? Martin Sheen? Does he make that call? Maybe it was Charlie.

Regardless, the ladies from Mad Money, Queen Latifah, Diane Keaton, and Katie Holmes had the honor this morning.

I hope they were frisked on the way out.

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.

Paris Hilton: Scientologist?

Karen — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 14:02:00 GMT

Paris Hilton spent 3 hours dining with Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise after the world premiere of Holmes' new film, Mad Money. Gossip is circling about the serpent ring she is wearing and if it's part of a recruitment process for Scientology.

I'm not saying Paris would be diggin' a religion that recruits it's members with jewelry, but if that's the case, I hope the Scientology water is otherwise known as Red Bull and Vodka, or they won't keep her.

I suspect the conversation would go something like this:

Paris: "Hey Bitches!"

Tom: ("Shit she saw us Kate. Fake a headache.") "Hi Paris."

Kate: "Hi Paris. I have a headache. We were just leaving."

Paris: "Just let me sit here a while so I look like I am getting more sophisticated."

Kate: "No really, I..."

Paris: "Seriously just a few minutes guys. Otherwise I'm going to look like Tara Reid at Hyde. Please?"

Tom: "Give your soul to Xenu."

Paris: "Okay."

Commence brainwashing.

Johnny Depp, Reese Witherspoon Like Being On Top

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 00:05:00 GMT

Get your minds out of the gutter - I'm talking about at the People's Choice Awards. The two stars were named Favorite Male and Female Movie Star, respectively, at a (way) scaled-down version of the annual award show. Another casualty of the writer's strike, the show was hosted by Queen Latifah but mostly featured vintage clips and pre-recorded acceptance speeches sandwiched in-between shots of Latifah directly addressing the cameras and walking around an empty studio. I think it was the first time in awards show history that viewers were praying for a badly-choreographed dance number or an excruciatingly-long song medley.

First the cancelled Golden Globes, now this? What's in store for the Academy Awards if the strike isn't settled by then? Get ready for host Jon Stewart broadcasting live from the Quizno's next to the Kodak Theater, showing us shots of the stars that he's clipped from OK! magazine.

Mad Katie!

Karen — Wed, 02 Jan 2008 19:04:00 GMT

Katie Holmes, Diane Keaton and Queen Latifah posed for some gorgeous and goofy shots to promote their new movie Mad Money! Is it me or does Katie look kinda out of place in the last picture? Maybe she's not as comfy with herself as the older ladies are.
