Scarlett Johannson is crazy! "I don't feel sexy, not right now. I think there is kind of an ingenue thing that women play when they are in their 20s. They are sort of these whimsical, sort of transient characters, and it's like that in life," she said. Scarlett is beautiful and married to hottie Ryan Reynolds. How can she possibly not feel sexy? "Women in their 30s, and actors in their 30s, suddenly take on far meatier roles. They are playing mothers and wives and women who have been through a life – before the place that they are at that moment. And I look forward to that time when I'll be able to have more of a life that I have experienced to put into the roles," she said. What a weirdo! They do say the older you get, the more confident you feel. But unless you're waiting to hit the legal drinking age, who'd really want to get older!?
Lost star Evangeline Lilly has personally hand-picked pieces of lingerie for charity. "I'm offering beautiful Brazilian-made lingerie as a fun and enticing way for you too not only invest in yourself, but in the poor and abandoned children of Brazil," Lilly said while promoting the cause on Good Morning America. Ten percent of the proceeds will go to Task Brasil, which works to provide a loving and supportive home environment for street children and adolescents in South America. We're glad to see a celeb supporting such a good cause, but we're sure the charity would be able to raise a lot more money if it were Lilly herself posing for the ad.
Between rehab stints and going through a divorce, rocker/junkie Amy Winehouse can't seem to catch a break. Bad luck struck again for Winehouse when her North London home was broken into while she was on vacation in the Caribbean, her rep confirms. Her neighbors spotted the burglars and called police, who later found the front door kicked in. Winehouse reported that guitars and music-recording equipment were stolen. We're surprised she's concerned with the music equipment that was stolen, surely the first thing she checked was to make sure her drug stash was still in place.
When Jessica Simpson got dressed for the 99.9 Kiss Country’s annual Chili Cookoff in Pembroke Pines, Fla., we doubt she had any idea the backlash her curvy figure would get. After these pics were taken of Simpson and the media has had a hayday with them, fellow celebs as well as ex-husband, Nick Lachey, are coming to her defense. "I wish her nothing but the best, and I hope she's happy - whatever size that comes in," he tells Extra. "I can't believe it's this big of a story and people are making such a huge deal about it. I'm never ceased to be amazed by people's reactions to things." Other stars who chatted with Us magazine echo Lachey's opinion. "I think this is absolutely ridiculous. People are being so mean," Paula Abdul told usmagazine.com. "People don't realize that it's damaging to one's psyche. For women, it's hard enough to be accepted for how you are."Rose McGowan added that she wants Simpson to say "eff off" to critics. "It's sad because you see a lot of male actors who gain a lot of weight in between roles," she said. "The reality is, if I went and gained 30 pounds in between roles, I wouldn't get roles. I think that's sexism, and it drives me crazy!" We think it's really cool that Hollywood is rallying behind Jess! Now if she could just find herself a new stylist she'd be all set.
Yes, that's right. You can now lick some of your favorite Australian celebrities. The Australia Post has named Academy Award winners Cate Blanchett, Nicole Kidman, Russell Crowe and Geoffrey Rush "Australian Legends" and will be putting their pictures on the .55 cent stamps. "These four outstanding Australians have captured the imagination of millions of people in Australia and around the world with their award-winning performances," Australia Post managing director Graeme John said in a statement. "I am utterly, deeply humbled and chuffed by the fact that I'm a stamp," Blanchett said. "I'm going to be licked by millions of Australians and I can't wait. It is also recognising the value of the arts in Australia. It brings it into general consumption and if I'm part of that, I feel intensely proud." Kidman added, "I have a vested interest in Australia. I want my children to live here at certain times of their life and see how wonderful it is. It would be lovely for them to lick a stamp, put it on an envelope and say 'that's my mum'. Each celeb will get two separate stamps; one of them in a real life shot and the other portraying a movie role. Also, they will each receive a 24-carat gold replica of their stamps. What an honor! We wonder how they chose these four stars?
Anna Faris is about to go from house bunny to housewife. The House Bunny star is engaged to actor Chris Pratt, a rep for the actress confirms to Usmagazine.com. It's the second trip down the aisle for Faris, who split from actor Ben Indra in February after about four years of marriage. "He is so wonderful to me," she told Us magazine of Pratt. "We have the same Northwestern sensibility." Let's hope that the "Northwestern sensibility" is the key to a successful marriage this time around. Congrats to the happy couple!
Only in Hollywood would you have an awkward run in with an ex-boyfriend on the big screen. Justin Long and ex, Drew Barrymore, are finding themselves in the middle of this sticky situation while promoting their film, He's Just Not That Into You, but Long swears it's not weird. Yeah right! "We're friends, she's the best," he says on Monday's Ellen DeGeneres Show. But is it awkward being on a press tour with his ex, DeGeneres asks. "Up until this point it’s been not awkward at all," Long replies. "No, it's... because we're friends, and you know her, she's effortlessly charming and easy to be around." Adds Long, "She has this amazing ability to make anyone feel like at ease." We don't buy the friendly ex act. Long is probably trying to save face since Barrymore clearly wasn't that into him when they broke up in July 2008.
Recent comments about her weight don't seem to be stopping Jessica Simpson from doing what she loves; performing for her fans. Simpson, clad in black leather pants, a hip-length black blazer and silver go-go heels took to the stage Thursday night in Virginia and thanked fans for standing by her. "This song is off my new record... and it's about finding the beauty in life, no matter what happens," she told the audience before introducing the tune, "Still Beautiful." Simpson later added, "Always remember that someone out there has it worse than you." As for a mention of football beau, Tony Romo, Jess alluded to him before belting out the ballad "You're My Sunday." She said it was about "a very special man in my life" who "has definitely changed me." Although Jess is under tremendous scrutiny for her performance last weekend she stayed upbeat during her show, thanking her fans before leaving the stage. "I want to thank my fans. You're the most wonderful, loyal fans in the world."Click here to see the diva's most recent look and let us know what you think. We definitely think it's an improvement over last weekend.
One would think that being nominated for an Oscar would be cause for celebration; well not for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. "Man, we're too busy dealing with Kleenexes and diapers and getting everyone fed to really celebrate. We'll do that next year," Brad told Reuters at the Japanese premiere of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Pitt is nominated for his role in Benjamin Button while Jolie is nominated for her performance in The Changeling. "Having two nominees in the family has been fun for the family, even if we don't have time to enjoy it right now," says Brad. Wow this definitely goes to show what is important to Jolie and Pitt, but we hope they find some time to celebrate together if they win.
Hollywood actor, Chad Lowe, and girlfiend, Kim Painter are getting ready to take on a new role: parents. Lowe, who split from ex wife Hilary Swank in 2007, and Painter will welcome the bundle of joy in early summer, his rep said in a statement, adding "The couple is overjoyed and could not be happier." Last year, Lowe told People magazine that his relationship with Painter and his gig on 24 helped him get through "a very dark period" after his split from Swank. We wish these two the best and stay tuned, as we're hoping Swank makes a comment about her ex's new role.
