Friday, October 9th, 2009

Congratulations are in order for supermodel Heidi Klum who has reportedly given birth to her 4th child early today, according to RadarOnline. As you may be aware, Heidi has been lookin’ ready to pop for some time now and it sounds like she has finally done it! Radar is reporting the little baby girl’s name is Lou:


RadarOnline.com has learned that Heidi Klum is a mom again. The supermodel gave birth Friday to a baby girl. The baby, named Lou Samuel, was born naturally at 1am, within one hour of being induced.

Yay! I knew she’d pop by the weekend, I just knew it! Much love and congrats goes out to the entire Klum-Samuel family on this little addition to their family!!

UPDATE: US Weekly is reporting that Heidi has NOT yet given birth to her baby but that labor is “imminent”, they say:

Despite multiple reports stating Heidi Klum gave birth to a baby girl early Friday morning, a source tells Usmagazine.com that the claims are untrue … The source tells Us this didn’t happen but that labor is imminent.

OY! I guess we’ll have to wait until official confirmation comes from the family themselves. If the baby’s name does turn out to be Lou then we will know that Radar was right. In any event, Heidi’s baby will be born this weekend … just as I predicted ;) Woot!!

Paris Hilton Gets Smoochy With A Chimp

No not beau Doug Reinhardt
Friday, October 9th, 2009

Paris Hilton was on hand to host an event called Carnival at Bowlmor Lanes in NYC, NY last night and she was spotted gettin’ up-close and personal with a new dude … some poor, unsuspecting chap — I mean, chimp — named Bentley … behold:


From the looks of it, it doesn’t look like Bentley (who is, like, the cutest little chimpanzee I ever did see) was too happy about having to get smooched by Paris Hilton. So … do you wanna call the ASPCA or should I?

Christina Aguilera Does British ‘Cosmopolitan’ Magazine

"If I had the choice between viewing a naked man or a naked woman, I’d choose the woman"
Friday, October 9th, 2009

Christina Aguilera, who is on the brink of making her return to the music scene, is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of British Cosmopolitan magazine. In her coverstory interview, Xtina talks about how she believes that women are much more sexy than men are and that, given the choice, she’d much rather look at a naked woman than at a naked man. OUCH! A comment like that’s gotta hurt her hubby Jordan Bratman. Here is our first look at Xtina’s Cosmo cover and some excerpts from her coverstory interview:


Christina Aguilera thinks women are “sexier” than men. The singer — who has a 20-month-old son with husband Jordan Bratman – says she’d much rather look at a naked woman. “I think women are such sensual beings,” the Dirrty hitmaker told the UK’s Cosmopolitan magazine. “And, I mean, I’m attracted to men ultimately — I’m married and I love my husband and I love what we do together, but honestly? “If I had the choice between viewing a naked man or a naked woman, I’d choose the woman. We’re just naturally sexier and more beautiful to look at.” “I feel sexiest in the nude,” she added. “I love a bubble bath with my husband and a glass of wine. He has a way of making me feel sexy. We’re team-mates. We know what’s on each other’s plates, what needs to be done workwise, what our values are as far as raising our son, and spending time together.”

Hmmm … these “outrageous” comments are sure to get talked about … not a bad way to get back onto the radar and get noticed before you drop your new album. I’m kind of a lukewarm Xtina fan … I do love some of her music but not all of it. I’m intrigued by her new album, which she co-wrote with the amazing artist Sia but considering how much I didn’t really care for her last effort, I’ll have to reserve judgment until I hear something substantial. It’s too bad for her hubby Jordy that she finds nekkid women sexier than nekkid men … I wonder if he’s a lukewarm Xtina fan, too.

Daniel Radcliffe Will Return To The Broadway Stage

Has signed on to appear in 'How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying'
Friday, October 9th, 2009

Great news for fans of Daniel Radcliffe … the young British actor who took both the West End stage and the Broadway stage by storm with his powerful performance in Equus has just signed on for a new Broadway production. This time, DanRad will be performing in musical theater in a revival of the classic show How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying. Here is a great look back at Dan’s performance in Equus and some deets about his new B’way gig:


Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe is heading to Broadway for his first musical. The 20-year-old actor has been announced as the lead for How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying. Radcliffe is already used to the pressures of nightly Broadway and West End appearances, having wowed critics in Equus last year. He will play the plum part of J. Pierrepont Finch, a window cleaner who rises to the top of a huge company while, of course, wooing and winning a girl along the way. Robert Morse created the role on Broadway and in the 1967 screen adaptation. The original production, running for a healthy 1,417 performances, won the top Tony for best musical in 1962 as well as six more, including awards for lead Morse and supporting player Charles Nelson Reilly. And the 1995 saw Matthew Broderick win the lead actor Tony. Radcliffe is currently filming the final instalments of the Harry Potter movies, Deathly Hallows, which will be released in two parts.

This is FANTASTIC news!! I suspect that this is but the beginning of a long and storied carrer on the stage. I was lucky enough to see Radcliffe in Equus and was stunned by his performance. I have no doubt that he will be just as superb in this new role in How to Succeed. I have been nothing but impressed with every acting performance I’ve seen from the lad and I have been wondering what his future career in acting holds for him. I suspect he will make a great name for himself on the musical theater stage. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if he gave up films altogether and stuck with plays and musicals. Time will tell what other projects DanRad will take on but I, for one, am very excited about the prospect of seeing Daniel Radcliffe on the Broadway stage again.

Cristiano Ronaldo Will Replace Beckham As The New Armani Underwear Model

A new bulge has been chosen
Friday, October 9th, 2009

For the past year or so, David Beckham and his bulging bulge has provided us with much entertainment in his various ad campaign photos for Emporio Armani Underwear. But, as with all good things, Becks’s contract with Armani is up … so Armani had to choose someone else to stuff their bulge into their famous underwear for their new 2010 ad campaign. Clearly Armani really likes having fútbols stuffed into their undies because they have selected Real Madrid footballer Cristiano Ronaldo as their new underwear model:


Portuguese footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, of Real Madrid, will be the next footballer to model underwear for Emporio Armani, in their spring-summer 2010 collection, replacing AC Milan and England footballer David Beckham, Italian sports daily La Gazetta dello Sport announced on Friday. Originally, Armani chose “Shevchenko, then Kaká, both alluring, both footballers, both Milan players – and both fully dressed,” said the paper. When it came to modelling its line of underwear, Armani went for Beckham, on loan to Milan since 2008 and “the most beautiful of them all,” who posed nude, apart from a pair of the Italian fashion house’s boxers. He was also joined by his wife Victoria: both “very sensual,” says the daily. On Friday, the “most beautiful” was traded in for “another delight with the ball,” Cristiano Ronaldo, Real Madrid’s 24-year-old star, the most expensive signing in history and “the most sought after man on the planet” of which his “repeated conquests and chronicles of his steamy nights” are proof, it surmises, The news, which was leaked by sources from both the football and fashion worlds, has still not been made official. According to La Gazzeta, Ronaldo will feature on advertising billboards for Armani’s younger clothes section in all of Europe’s major cities as of February next year. The advertising campaign will most likely take place in Milan, it adds, stressing that this is the first time Giorgio Armani has chosen a footballer that doesn’t play for AC. “This time it’s the turn of the international media’s favourite footballer; one that plays for Real Madrid, drinks champagne with Paris Hilton in Los Angeles and sails his boat around the Mediterranean,” concludes La Gazzeta.

Firstly, let me say that I think it’s foolish of Armani to NOT offer David Beckham a new contract to appear in another year of underwear ads. Yes, it makes sense to switch up models with each new year but Beckham helped Armani reach new heights in underwear sales. If you also consider that with Becks comes his wifey Victoria Beckham in her own underwear ads … it just makes sense. That being said, if they had to replace Becks with anyone it is very smart that they went with another high profile footballer. Cristiano Ronaldo has always struck me as David Beckham, Jr. (but with a crispier tan) so he would be the most natural heir to this campaign. I’m very curious to see what Ronaldo’s Armani underwear ads will look like. Will his bulge measure up … in sales? I guess we will soon find out.

Date Night: Roscoe’s & Rollerskating

The TV Guide
Friday, October 9th, 2009

Because David and I are always on the go and we tend do things with a lot of our friends, we decided to institute a standing Date Night for just the two of us where we take turns planning a night of fun where we PRIMARILY do things that we don’t usually do. Because David loves to do active things and I don’t, and I love to go to concerts and he doesn’t we decided to try and find new things that we both might like … or at least would like to do together. I took the initiative to plan our first Date Night last night and decided we would have dinner at Roscoe’s House of Chicken N’ Waffles:


I’m a big fan of fried chicken and waffles and I urge all y’all to try it sometime. A friend took me to Roscoe’s many years ago and I’ve always wanted to go back … David and never been there so that’s where we went. Needless to say, we both enjoyed our fabulous meal :) The main event was an activity that I thought we would both enjoy and that we have never done together. After the jump, find out where we went for our Date Night fun …
