Indy Champ Welcomes Baby

Whit Honea — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 19:30:00 GMT

Dan Wheldon of Indy fame and his wife Susie are new parents. The couple welcomed son Sebastian on Sunday- 2 weeks early.

Says the proud papa, “It’s one of those things that, until you experience it, you’ll never be able to put into words how great the feeling is. The first time I saw the little baby, and I’ve just met him, I was amazed by the amount of love you can feel for one human being at that moment. The entire experience just blew my mind.”

Congrats!

Billie Piper: Secrets To Sexy Post-Baby Body

Sassy Smith — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 14:04:00 GMT

Secret Diary Of A Call Girl star Billie Piper, 26, gave birth to her first child 3 months ago - Winston James Fox - and the pretty actress admits she gained over 30 pounds with the pregnancy. So, how did she shed the weight in such a short time?

Billie, who is still breastfeeding, is just five pounds short of her pre-pregnancy weight.

A source said, "She's often so tired or busy looking after Winston that she just forgets to eat and can make do on dinner and fruit all day." But she knows losing weight by not eating properly is not a good way to do it, so she's back on track.

"Billie's eating really healthy and makes sure she only has healthy snacks if she gets hungry between meals."

Piper, who had to have an emergency Caesarean, is still unable to do any strenuous exercise, so she relies on postnatal yoga and Pilates three times a week to help get her figure toned.

"Billie does lots of gentle yoga and is starting to tone with reasonably heavy weights. It's really helped to reduce her stretchmarks. The ones she has are very faint."

The new mom also does gentle stomach "zip-ups" which are designed to knit stretched tummy mucles back together, as well as leg raisers and tummy toners.

Where do these brand new moms find time to do all of this working out?

Billie Piper Gives Birth!

Sassy Smith — Tue, 21 Oct 2008 15:08:00 GMT

TVs Secret Diary of a Call Girl actress Billie Piper has given birth to her first child - a boy!

*Updated with baby's name and details!*

Baby, according to The Sun, was delivered by C-section with her husband Laurence Fox by her side. No other details have been released at this time.

Fox was asked by reporters outside of the hospital about their son's name and he said, "It's a private moment." He did share that they had a moment of panic when he couldn't get their car to start after Billie went into labor, but thankfully they made it to the hospital in time.

Congrats to the first time parents!

*Update*

Proud new dad, Laurence Fox said that his son weighed 6 lbs., 11 oz., and they've named him Winston James Fox. He said Billie was in labor for 26 hours before they went to the hospital and that the "emergency caesarean only took about 20 minutes."

Fox said, "Billie is happy. Of course she is, she's a mum. I am tired but not as tired as her - I am a proud father." He gushed that his newborn son is "beautiful" and "sweet."

When asked when Piper would be out of the hospital, Fox replied, "Well, she has been cut apart, so probably overnight. I will be with her for the length of it."

Lost Babies - Adorable!

Sassy Smith — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 11:06:00 GMT

Baby Aaron Littleton - if you're a Lost fan, then you know who I'm talking about! And just who plays Aaron on the show? Well not just one baby - but 16 of them!

More pics after the jump!

A few days ago at Kapi'olan Park there was a Baby Aaron Convention! Sixteen celebrity babes (13 girls and 3 boys) and their family members, friends and fans, ate, laughed, and cried - and that was just the adults. Ha.

Each baby had played the role of Lost's Aaron at some point. All the babies wore tee shirts with "Baby Aaron" on the front.

If you're not familiar with the series, Aaron is the mysterious baby of Claire Littleton, who was pregnant at the time of the plane crash on an island, where strange and weird things happen.

Yes, the sex of Aaron on the show is a boy, but 13 girls have played the part - why? Julie Carlson, who is the Lost extras casting director said, "Females tend to have the rounder face and they don't age as quickly. Plus the boys squirm more." Well of course!

Carlson has rounded up 76 little dudes and dudettes to play Aaron since the show's second season.

Julie says she's always searching for the right baby, the looking never ends. They need babies who are between 10 to 17 pounds at this point for auditions. And of course, some babies are laughers, some are weepers - like Josie Weinert, who is 12 months and 12 days old.

"She's been in some stressful scenes," said Weinert's mom, Nino Fiorentino. "And she cried in every one. She doesn't usually cry. See, that was acting."

Aww little Lindsay's and Britney's in the making.

Billie Piper & Her Fetish Role

Sassy Smith — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 18:33:00 GMT

Actress Billie Piper might be 7-months pregnant but that isn't going to stop her from doing what she does best - playing Belle in Secret Diary Of A Call Girl. The 25-year-old wants fans of the series to know that the second run of the show will push the envelope even further than before!

Billie has just filmed her raciest scene yet for the television program - her high class hooker character has now offered a client FETISH SEX. Whoa!

The pretty blonde told TV Biz, "There are some very unsual fetishes coming up. As long as they've got the right money, Belle will make anyone's fantasy come true for them."

Her character will go even further than before - she's taken part in threesomes, spanking and swinging. However, the sex scenes were harder to film for the second series because she began to gain weight with her pregnancy.

Piper says, "I needed two body doubles in the end. As I got more and more pregnant I began to gain weight so it looked silly having a really skinny body double."

Billie defends her role as Bell and doesn't think she goes to far - she believes it [the show] sends a very human message.

She adds, "If people can watch The Sopranos and identify with mafia boss Tony, who's a murdering gangster, then they should be able to understand where Belle's coming from."

He whatever floats your thigh-highs.

Billie and husband actor Laurence Fox, 29, are expecting their first child later in the fall.

Billie Piper's Home Birth

Sassy Smith — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 13:34:00 GMT

Actress and star of Secret Diary Of A Call Girl, Billie Piper wants to avoid having her baby at the hospital - so she's hoping to have her first child at home!

British Piper and her husband Laurence Fox have decided they would like a home water birth.

A pal said to the Sunday Express, "Billie has been saying she doesn't want all the bright lights of a hospital and thinks a home birth in warm water would be a wonderfully calm way for her baby to come into the world."

This will be Billie and Laurence's first child.

Have you had a home birth? Why or why not? Personally (uh, well, I'm done having kids at this point), I could have never had a home birth, just not for me!

So what if Billie Piper is pregnant? Actresses with child can still play a convincing call girl right? Right. So back to the nudity for Billie....

The Dr Who star has left her role as Rose Tyler to pursue her role as Belle de Jour in the TV series Secret Diary Of A Call Girl. Piper was filming her call girl role in south London a day after she wrapped up at the Dr Who set.

The series airs for it's second season in September. I guess Billie wasn't that concerned about the racy content as she previously mentioned.

Billie Piper's Topless Role

Sassy Smith — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 17:39:00 GMT

Actress Billie Piper, 25, thinks she may have gone too far with her role as a high-class hooker in Diary Of A Call Girl, a series that saw her in several semi-nude scenes, including a lesbian tryst. Now, she feels she may have blown her chance at a real Hollywood career because of the nudity and racy content. The Dr Who star is concerned as to how she'll be viewed.

Billie said, “Someone said the other day, rather viciously, ‘What A-list stars get their t**s out?’ “And then I started thinking, ‘Oh, my God, what have I done? I’ve ruined my future career.’”

Piper played Belle de Jour in the racy series, said, "You know, you get photographed on the beach topless. After all, they're only breasts."

Billie shouldn't worry though - an exec at Showtime which has seen the series, said, "Billie has the looks and ability to make it very big in Hollywood."

Billie is married to actor Laurence Fox and the couple is expecting their first child.

Victoria Beckham Is UGLY Again!

Sassy Smith — Sun, 25 May 2008 15:03:00 GMT

Victoria aka Posh Beckham is Ugly! So Ugly in fact, that she's wanted again and maybe even a third time! And a fourth time! She may be Ugly for a very long time.

Video after the jump!

Beckham is set to return to the hit show Ugly Betty after she successfully wowed the bosses during her cameo role last year. Victoria played herself (stretch eh?) as a bridesmaid to Vanessa Williams' character as the betchy fashion boss, Wilhelmina Slater.

There's even rumors that Posh will be a regular guester on the show. A source told the Sydney Morning Herald, "The producers are delighted she will return. She is going to feature quite a bit."

Wonderful that Victoria can play herself. That must be hard! I bet her kids don't even recognize their mom playing herself on TV.

In case you missed it or are even slightly interested, enjoy the clips from her first appearance:

Annie Leibovitz has done it again. The latest touch of Disney magic in the "Disney Dream Portrait Series" features swimmer Michael Phelps and actress Julianne Moore creating a scene from The Little Mermaid.

When Moore was asked to play Ariel, she recalls, "I leapt at the chance. Ariel is my daughter's favorite princess, so I was just really so excited to do it."

Previous photos from the series, which includes an array of big names portraying Disney characters, can be found here and here.

It must be a lot of fun for Moore's kids to see her like this. I bet John Travolta is excited, too.

J.K. Rowling Considering 8th Harry Potter Book

Karen — Mon, 31 Dec 2007 15:04:00 GMT

Exciting news for Harry Potter fans: J.K. Rowling is pondering the idea of writing an 8th book for the series. This time around would not have Harry as the main character, however.

In an interview with Time Magazine (who voted her as one of the People of the Year for 2007) she said, "There have been times since finishing, weak moments, when I've said 'Yeah, all right' to the eighth novel."

She is getting enormous pressure from her oldest daughter, 14, and expects more pressure as her 2 and 4 year olds get into the series.

"If - and it's a big if - I ever write an eighth book, I doubt that Harry would be the central character. I feel I've already told his story.

"But these are big ifs. Let's give it ten years."

Rowling is currently working on two writing projects – an adult novel and a "political fairy tale" – and is involved in charity work.

And so we wait. I hope she keeps writing the Harry Potter series. It's great to see kids so entangled in these stories and treasuring a good read.

Jennifer and Violet are Cute. That's All.

Whit Honea — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 19:27:00 GMT

These pictures of Jenn and Violet are a few days old. They are from a simpler time, before the craziness of Halloween and the opening of Jennifer Garner's Broadway debut. They were snuggled between World Series wins and little lamb costumes. Things were different then. There was an ease in the air and together they breathed it in.

Basically, a little Jenn and Violet action going into the weekend is always nice.

Annie Leibovitz and Her Disney Magic

Whit Honea — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 19:07:00 GMT

Annie Leibovitz has done it all in her career. The lady is to photography what Warhol was to painting but without all the soup cans. In a nutshell, she's good.

Disney commissioned her to do a series of photos using some of the biggest stars from sports and entertainment to portray classic Disney icons. It's pretty freakin' cool.

Says Leibovitz, "It's thrilling to have an opportunity to re-create the characters we all loved as children. The stories are real to my own children now, and their belief inspires me."

Preaching to the choir, Annie.

In regard to the photos, here is a portion of the press release:

Actress Rachel Weisz is Snow White, tennis star Roger Federer is King Arthur from "The Sword in the Stone" and actress Julie Andrews is the Blue Fairy from "Pinocchio" with actress Abigail Breslin as Fira from "Disney Fairies" in a new wave of celebrity images celebrating "The Year of a Million Dreams" at Disney Parks.

They join Scarlett Johansson as Cinderella, Beyoncé as "Alice in Wonderland" twirling in a teacup and David Beckham atop a steed as Prince Phillip from "Sleeping Beauty" in a 14-page insert appearing later this year in several Condé Nast publications. Johansson, Beyoncé and Beckham also starred in the first flight of Leibovitz images last January.

The Beyonce photo also included Lyle Lovett and Oliver Platt. The previous three photos can be seen here.

The Manny Ramirez-es

If you're nickname was Man-Ram would you name two of your three sons the same thing? Even if your nickname was great would you name two kids the same thing? I'm not talking to you, George Foreman. Luckily for the city of Boston the oddly-coiffed baseball player is more creative on the field than he is in the game of baby naming.

Ramirez and his two oldest boys, Manny and Manny Jr., really, spent a little time horsing around at Fenway where Rudy Giuliani's Boston Red Sox have won the first two games of the World Series.

Congrats to Rudy, Manny, Manny and Manny.
