Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck welcome baby boy, source says

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have welcomed their third child, a baby boy, Us Weekly reported Tuesday.

A source told the magazine the baby was born in Santa Monica, Calif.

The new addition joins the couple's two daughters, Violet, 6, and Serafina, 3.

Garner, 39, announced her pregnancy in August, saying she would be thrilled to have another girl. And she said Affleck, 39, was excited no matter what the gender.

"I would have thought [he wanted a boy]. At first ... I really thought so," Garner told Jay Leno in January.

"And then [Ben] kind of said, 'Well, we have girls. We know how to do girls. My girls love me. I'm the big guy in the house.' So, now I'm not sure."

The couple met after starring together in "Daredevil," and married in June 2005.

Garner was previously married to actor Scott Foley, while Affleck was previously engaged to Jennifer Lopez and dated Gwyneth Paltrow.

Gwyneth Paltrow Thinks Blue Ivy Carter Is Going To Be A Star Like Beyonce

At less than 3 months old, Blue Ivy Carter just made her public debut, and actress Gwyneth Paltrow believes the baby is destined to be a star.
The 39-year-old actress, and friend to Blue's parents Beyonce and Jay-Z, had a few things to say about the couple's bundle of joy at the Governor's Ball after the Academy Awards on Sunday night.
"For sure, [Blue Ivy] is going to be an entertainer," Paltrow told Hollywoodlife. "She just has this glow around her like her mother."
Bey and Jay were not at the Oscars last night, but had been spotted with their pride and joy in New York's West Village on Saturday afternoon. "Beyonce is doing great," Paltrow revealed. "She's just a natural at being a mom. And Blue Ivy is stunning, she has the most beautiful eyes."
No doubt Blue Ivy will one day be a member of Young Hollywood, likely alongside Paltow's kids Apple and Moses.

Katy Perry Is Unrecognizable In Interview Magazine

 

Katy Perry looks incredible on the cover of the new Interview Magazine ... she just doesn't look anything like Katy Perry!

Thanks to some drastic hair and makeup, the singer looks more like Megan Fox or even a young Elizabeth Taylor than the same girl who sang "Teenage Dream."

Not that we're complaining ...

There's no denying Katy looks amazing, especially in contrast to the just-released photos of her from an upcoming episode of "Raising Hope" -- where she sports a curly red wig and facial hair!

Chris Brown Singing with Rihanna in Orlando Nightclub

Chris Brown didn't shy away when the DJ blasted a Rihanna song at an Orlando nightclub this weekend -- instead, he proudly sang along with EVERY lyric ...

It all went down at Club Vain on Sunday night during an NBA All--Star weekend finale party.

Chris was hanging on the main stage ... with everybody looking at him ... when Rihanna's "We Found Love" began to pump through the speakers ... and Chris made sure everyone knew he's a HUGE fan of the song.

It's the latest in what seems like a public reconciliation between the two sides -- earlier this month, the two collaborated on remixes of each other's songs.

Jennifer Lopez, Casper Smart Hit The Vanity Fair Oscar Party (PHOTO)

Though they've been together for months, Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart made a rare public appearance together at Sunday night's Vanity Fair Oscar party.
Lopez, who ignited a Twitter frenzy over "a nip slip that wasn't" while presenting at the 84th annual Academy Awards, traded in her stunning Oscars gown for another daring dress for Vanity Fair's star-studded post-Oscars bash -- but she didn't show up alone.

Angelina Jolie's Leg: Oscars Gets Eyeful With Actress' Leggy Pose (PHOTO)

Move over Tim Tebow on bended knee. Angelina Jolie may have started the newest strike-a-pose trend on the Academy Awards red carpet Sunday night.

After being introduced as "the original 'Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'" by Oscar host Billy Crystal, Angelina dramatically flipped her right leg through the thigh-high slit of her Atelier Versace gown and slapped her hand on her hip, causing an instant Twitter sensation.
The campy pose didn't go unnoticed inside the theater either. Jim Rash immediately mocked the awkward pose while accepting the Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar for "The Descendants" with his co-writers Nat Faxon and Alexander Payne.

Rihanna, Chris Brown Reunite On Two Remixes

We were already trying to wrap our heads around the news that Chris Brown would lend his voice to Rihanna's "Birthday Cake" remix, but the singers have managed to blow our minds a little bit more.
On Monday the former couple (who are rumored to be seeing each other in secret) threw us for a loop when they both released remixes featuring each others vocals.
We knew that Brown was the "shocking" addition to "Birthday Cake" that producers promised, but we were more than surprised to hear Rihanna singing on Brown's remix for "Turn Up The Music."
The songs dropped simultaneously and couldn't have been released at a more opportune time. Brown has been a hot topic in the media this past week after he shot back at critics like country singer Miranda Lambert, who were upset to see him honored and performing at last week's Grammy Awards. Lambert, and other celebrities, spoke out against the music industry officially welcoming Brown back into its good graces for the first time since he brutally assaulted Rihanna in 2009.
Though "RIP Chris Brown" started trending on Twitter after the 22-year-old singer wrote that winning a Grammy was the "ultimate F**k OFF," his career is somehow still alive.
Although many aren't ready to forgive Brown, the remixes are proof that Rihanna certainly has. The 24-year-old singer seems to have extended an olive branch to Brown and perhaps her heart as well. Hearing Rihanna sing on Brown's song the words, "I love you baby," and Chris singing on "Birthday Cake": "Girl I wanna f**k you right now. Been a long time, I've been missing your body," only further fuels rumors the two have being seeing each other in secret.

Whitney Houston Funeral Costner, Davis Among Those Paying Their Respects

Whitney Houston's "Bodyguard" co-star Kevin Costner and mentor Clive Davis were among those who gave touching speeches during her funeral service this afternoon.

Whitney's cousin, Dionne Warwick, also gave a moving tribute.

While Houston's service was moving, it wasn't without some controversy. Bobby Brown left the service after just a short time after a disagreement with Whitney's family. We're told they objected to Bobby bringing a nine-person entourage with him.

Alicia Keys, R. Kelly and Stevie Wonder were among the performers who sung in Whitney's honor.

RIP Whitney.

Nick Cannon Reveals Recent Hospitalization for Blood Clots, Says Work Will ‘Kill’ Him

Despite recovering from a case of mild kidney failure earlier this year, Nick Cannon claims he’s not done with hospitals just yet.

On Thursday, Nick revealed that he was admitted to the hospital last week for two blood clots found in his lung and an enlarged ventricle on the right side of his heart.
“It was quite serious. I was trying to downplay it a lot, even in my own mind,” Nick told listeners. “I travel a lot. Anyone who flies a lot can be a victim to getting blood clots because it can start in your legs or your lower back. That, on top of my previous condition made me more prone to [getting blood clots].”
According to the star, his hectic work schedule had caused his body to shut down. In fact, his doctor had warned him that his health will continue to decline if he does not take a break from his job.
“My doctor was saying that my work is going to kill me – and he’s not joking,” he said. “I think part of the reason why my health did kind of deteriorate was because I wasn’t resting a lot and I was doing too much. I was overworking myself, working out too much.”
Nick was hospitalized for a mild kidney failure earlier this year.

Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart’s Sexy Valentine’s Day Photo

Jennifer Lopez hasn’t been shy about flaunting her new boy toy Casper Smart around — so in the spirit of Valentine’s Day the singer posted a sultry pic of the couple.

In the black and white photo, the pair posed for a steamy picture, with J-Lo’s dancer beau planting a tender kiss on the singer’s head. J-Lo, 42, is seen resting her head gently against 24-year-old Casper’s shoulder.
Lopez must have had second thoughts about posting the pic (above) — and later deleted it. What do you think about this intimate photo? Should Jennifer have shared it with the world? Sound off in the comments.

Earlier this month, the couple were spotted on the beaches of Malibu, Calif. along with J-Lo’s adorable twin kids Max and Emme. The shirtless backup dancer seemed chummy with JLo’s children as they played in the waves and sand.

First Photos of Beyonce’s Baby Blue Ivy Carter Reignite Surrogacy Rumors [PHOTOS]

The first photos of Beyonce's baby Blue Ivy Carter were released to the world on Friday by Beyonce and husband Jay-Z. The couple posted five photos of their baby girl on the Tumblr page "Hello Blue Ivy Carter." Along with the five photos, the couple added a note reading: "We welcome you to share in our joy. Thank you for respecting our privacy during this beautiful time in our lives."

With fame comes scrutiny, and no couple is as famous as Beyonce and Jay-Z, otherwise known as music royalty. The release of the photos has reignited rumors that Beyonce used a surrogate to carry and deliver her baby.

Commentators are questioning everything from the race of the baby to her hair to Beyonce's post-pregnancy body.

And The Winner Is: Adele's Grammy Sweep

Adele made Grammy history on Sunday, winning in all six categories in which she was eligible. This enabled her to tied Beyonce's 2010 record for most Grammys won by a female artist in one night and Eric Clapton's 1993 record for most Grammys won by a British artist in one night. Adele also became the youngest artist to sweep the "Big Three" awards-Album, Record and Song of the Year. The 23-year old easily surpassed the former record-holders, Paul Simon, Carole King, and Christopher Cross, each of whom was 29 when they achieved the feat.
Adele's sweep was a foregone conclusion. In the past year, the singer achieved a rare combination of blockbuster sales, critical acclaim and industry support. But that doesn't mean the 54th annual Grammy Awards didn't have its share of surprises.

Whitney Houston Died of Prescription Drug, Alcohol Cocktail: Reports

Whitney Houston likely died from a combination of the drug Xanax and other prescription medication mixed with alcohol, TMZ reported today, citing family sources who were briefed by Los Angeles County Coroner officials. Officials told the singer's family that there was not enough water in her lungs for her to have drowned, and that she may have died before sinking into the bathtub in the Beverly Hilton hotel room where her body was found Saturday.

Whitney Houston's Daughter Family Fears She Might Be Suicidal

In the wake of the death of Whitney Houston, family members fear that her daughter, 18-year-old Bobbi Kristina Brown, might be suicidal and are considering getting her help ... TMZ has learned.

As TMZ first reported, Bobbi Kristina was taken to the hospital once last night and again this morning. We've been told she was "hysterical, exhausted and inconsolable."

Sources close to the family tell TMZ ... the family believes she might try and take her own life. According to one source, the family feels Bobbi Kristina needs help and they are considering rehab as an option.

Bobbi got into it with cops last night after she was barred from seeing her mother's body.

Jennifer Lopez Grammy Dress Makes Comeback

Jennifer Lopez still holds the title for making the biggest wardrobe splash at the Grammy Awards in 2000. Her sheer, Versace gown was cut down to the navel and held in place with little more than stubborn, double-sided tape. It was so memorable that while celebs wore it before Lopez, few besides the "South Park" creator dared to wear it again after her appearance. Lopez saw the dress a year before the Grammys and decided that she "had to have it." Years later, she looks back on the footage of herself in the dress and says "I remember when I used to walk around like that. After babies, my body did change," she told Access Hollywood. "I had to work really hard to get it back in shape, to be quite honest, and for the first time in my life had to change my eating." But that doesn't mean she's too shy to try something like the Versace dress again. "I would wear something like that now. I wouldn't have a problem with it."

Now the Versace dress is getting another second life and the emerald green print is making its way across the country.

This time around it's a little less racy and the cleavage can be modified, thanks to a zipper. H&M teamed up with Versace, and the company opened the vaults to reuse the identifiable Miami Palm Print. "It was the first time the print has been used again from the archive," said a publicist for H&M. "It's accessible to the world, now."

Model Has Natural 20-inch Waist

Romanian model Ioana Spangenberg says she has natural 20-inch waist. When you see her thin middle in contrast to her 32-inch hips, it's no wonder tabloids like The Sun are referring to Spangenberg as "the human hourglass." The 30-year-old clocks in around 84 pounds, and says she was average size until her teen years. "When I was 13 my waist was around 15 inches. Someone could put their hands around it, their fingers would touch and they would still have extra room," she told the Sun.


Spangenberg insists she's tried everything and cannot gain weight around her midsection. "No one seems to believe it, but every day I eat three big meals and I snack on chocolate and crisps all the time. I just have a small stomach. It's a bit like having a natural gastric band - if I eat too much, I feel sick," she told the Sun. "In Romania it is better to be overweight, because that means you are from a wealthy family...so while my friends were going out and dating, I was sitting at home with Mars bars wishing I could fatten up," she told the paper.

Beyonce Reveals Sexy Post-Baby Body 1 Month After Giving Birth

Beyonce Knowles picked a very special occasion for her first post-baby outing.

Four weeks after giving birth, the 16-time Grammy winner supported her husband Jay-Z at his Carnegie Hall concert in Manhattan, which benefited The United Way of New York City and his Shawn Carter Foundation.
The new mom showed off her svelte body in a body-hugging Alice by Temperley dress with Ofira & Lorraine Schwartz jewelry, an Alexander McQueen clutch, and Christian Louboutin platform heels.
During the concert, Jay-Z got choked up while performing "Glory," the song he wrote for their daughter, Blue Ivy (born January 7 in NYC).
