Here are a few supercute pics of lovebirds Hayden Panettiere and Milo Ventimiglia spending a little vacation time together on the romantic isle getaway of Bora Bora in French Polynesia this week:

Good looking, toned and talented – Hayden Panettiere and Milo Ventimiglia looked every inch the superhero couple as they walked hand in hand along the beach. The pair, who both star in the science fiction drama Heroes, are enjoying a romantic break on the French Polynesian island of Bora Bora. Despite dating for more than a year, it is rare for the couple to be spotted together in public. It emerged the pair, who have a 12-year age gap between them, were dating in January last year. Rumours first circulated when they were seen smooching at an Emmys party in September 2007 and by the end of the year they were regularly seen out together at showbiz events. Milo, 31, had previously denied rumours when asked about reports of a possible romance with the 18-year-old actress. He said: “She and I are close friends. It’s only natural that people are going to couple us together.” The couple met on the set of superhero drama Heroes and they enjoy a close relationship on as well as off screen.

Nice to see that the couple are still happily attached. Because we don’t see them out and about very often it’s hard to tell how things are going (we last saw the pair in public together back before Halloween). I’d say these new pics of the couple on holiday together is a very good sign that things are coming along swimmingly with the couple. I like them together … they make a nice match. Here’s hoping that 2009 will be a very good one for HaLo … as it stands, it looks like they’ve got the New Year off to a great start!

Yesterday started out promising in that David and I talked briefly about “going out” and “doing something” but in the end … that’s not at all what happened. David’s sister Lara came by the apartment to hang out with us and also seemed interested in going out … for dinner at least. We decided to order food to be delivered and that was the end of that. We watched a bunch of Friends episodes until Lara got tuckered and went back to their sister Eden’s apartment for the rest of the night. David and I, again, talked about going out but … ended up watching the entire 4th season of the original Aussie version of Kath & Kim:

Now we are both fully caught up with the original series and have no need to watch the US version anymore. Again, the US version is a’ight, I guess but it cannot hold a candle to the original OZ version. Now all we have to do is wait for the next season of new eps ;) As much as I kinda wanted to go out last night … it just wasn’t meant to be.

But tonight, we are deffo braving the cold and venturing out … we have tickets to see Billy Elliot the Musical on Broadway. We wanted to see Billy Elliot when we were in London, England over the Summer but it didn’t work out … and since this will be my last trip to NYC for a long time, well, I wanted to squeeze in a Broadway show while I had the time. It should be fun … I’ve heard great things.

Here is this week’s batch of photos, the first of 2009, sent in by Pink is the new Blog readers — Lacey sends in an adorable photo of her 15 month old baby boy Payden lookin’ very handsome in his little Holiday Party suit — Helen sends in a supercute pic of her baby boy Ryan — Yvonne sends in a pic of her beautiful granddaughter Kaylie — Mandy sends in a pic from the North Little Rock Arkansas 10th Annual Polar Bear Plunge that raised money for the Arkansas Special Olympics by having the participants go into the lake every hour for 24 hours! — Jillane sends in some lurve for The Smiths as she vacayed in London, England:

Thank you all so much for another batch of fun photos … seriously, the babies are so cute :) I hope all y’all had a great New Year’s Week and I very much look forward to seeing photos from all y’all’s parties, celebrations, whatevs over the coming year! xoxo

Amid reports that the couple are headed for Splitsville, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony jetted off to their home territory of Puerto Rico ahead of the New Year in order to celebrate their happy love together … or whatevs. The couple made a very public showing at the inauguration of the new Governor of Puerto Rico Luis Fortuno yesterday, making sure to show the world that they are still very much together … or whatevs:

As you can see in these photos, the couple were both wearing their wedding rings (which are so full of bling that they can be seen with the naked eye from space) and were careful to show them off as much as possible (like in the solo photo of Jen where she appears to be going, Oh, my huge wedding ring that is a symbol of my love for my husband is so big that it always gets in the way when I’m trying to brush the hair from my face). The couple even shared a smooch during the inauguration ceremony … looks like true love to me! Honestly, I think all of this show would be much more believable if it weren’t so obviously shoved in our faces … the disingenuousness only makes it seem faker. I guess time will tell. Are any of y’all buying this performance?

A much healthier-looking Amy Winehouse was spotted frolicking on the beach in St. Lucia (where she has been on holiday for the past week or so) in the company of a cute male friend this week … apparently going head over heels with happiness with sober sanity … behold:

Cavorting on the beach, Amy Winehouse looks brimming with health and vitality. With her clear skin, glossy hair and obvious lust for life, the energetic 25-year-old is a different picture from her previously bedraggled figure suffering from the excesses of London life. As she joined in a game of football with her friends, practiced her handstands and frolicked in the sea, it was clear the Caribbean holiday was doing the singer the world of good. The playful star appeared to have taken on a new sporty persona and seemed to not to have a care in the world, as she enjoyed herself on the beach. Wearing a black bikini top and colourful bottoms, she showed off her new curvier figure, which looked healthier than it had done in years. The 25-year-old singer has been enjoying a holiday away from it all with her friends and family on the island of St. Lucia. She travelled first class to the exotic location with her 12-year-old god-daughter Dionne Bromfield, her mother and a group of other friends. It is obvious the break from her life in London is doing Amy the world of good, as she looked happier than she had for a long time. Along with her bad skin and emaciated figure, she has also ditched her trademark beehive for the vacation.

This has to be the healthiest and happiest I think I’ve ever seen the usually tragic trainwreck. The Caribbean appears to be just what the doctor ordered to help get the girl’s life back in order. I highly approve of this hunky new male friend of hers … he looks like he could be much better for her than her estranged hubby Blake Fielder-Civil. Amy appears to be flourishing far away from the temptations that were destroying her back home in London. I think it’d be totally ace if she just found herself a secluded island to live out her days so that she might live a long and healthy life rather than return to the mainland and succumb to the dangerous behavior that was killing her. This is an Amy Winehouse that I could get used to seeing … she looks so happy, carefree and coherent. It’s a nice look for her, wouldn’t you agree?
