Catherine Zeta Jones baby wish

Catherine ZetaCatherine Zeta-Jones wants to have another baby with husband Michael Douglas.

The Welsh actress is said to be keen on having a third child with her Hollywood star spouse, and likes the idea of the couple's two children - six-year-old son, Dylan, and four-year-old daughter, Carys - having another brother or sister.

A friend of Catherine's told Grazia magazine: "She has started talking about how wonderful it would be to have another baby. She and Michael have agreed to just relax and see what happens. They do want to have another baby, but even more than that, they want to focus on spending time together and with their family."

Catherine, 37, has previously said she didn't want to add to her family, but has seemingly warmed to the idea as Carys has grown up.

Last year, Michael, 62, insisted he did not want anymore children.

He said at the time: "We are enjoying our two children, and we want to keep it that way. I'm happy."

Jennifer Aniston's greatest lover

Jennifer AnistonJennifer Aniston has told her new man he is better in bed than her ex-husband Brad Pitt.

The former 'Friends' actress is currently dating former builder Paul Sculfor and is said to be very impressed with his bedroom skills.

A source close to Jennifer - who has also dated Vince Vaughn since divorcing Brad - told Britain's Star magazine: "She's left Paul in no doubt that he is the man for her. She even let slip that he's better in bed than either Brad or Vince!"

The 38-year-old star has also tried to spice things up in the bedroom by buying saucy underwear from The Love Boutique in Santa Monica.

The source added: "She spent nearly £400 on suspender belts, pants and stockings. Jen shopped online and then sent her assistant to pick the items up."

As well as being dynamite between the sheets, Jen claims model Paul is very romantic.

Her close friend Tiffany Laws said: "He bought Jen a huge bunch of flowers, then had chocolates and champagne delivered. She loved that. Jen goes by what her heart is telling her, and the initial indications are really good. She's not bothered about gossip. She will give him a chance to show he's the right guy for her."

Diaz: 'I Miss Out On Roles Over Fear Of Commitment

DiazCameron Diaz misses out on roles in big movies because she fears commitment.

The Charlie's Angels star hates making long-term plans and believes her problems stem from always getting her own way as a child.

She says, "There are a lot of great roles out there but you know my problem?

I'm really bad at commitment.

"I just hate committing myself to anything. I'm terrible at making plans. I have no idea where I want to be. It's probably comes from me being a total spoiled brat and always getting my own way."

And the star admits she can't even invest her time in a pet: "I don't even want a dog. My cat just died and I don't want another cat. Oh god, I've just opened another friggin' can of worms."

Yesterday Diaz was forced to apologise for a bag faux-pas - Cameron Diaz has issued an apology after 'insulting' locals on a visit to Peru by carrying a bag emblazoned with a communist slogan.

The Shrek actress was visiting the Inca city of Machu Picchu on Friday (22Jun07) using an olive green bag with a red star and the words "Serve the People" written in Chinese. The message was seen by many as a reference to Chinese Communist leader Mao Zedong. Zedong's Maoist Shining Path insurgency fought the Peruvian government in the 1980s and early 1990s, killing almost 70,000 people.

Human rights activists described the actress' bag as "inappropriate", however Diaz has now apologised for her ignorance.

She says, "I sincerely apologise to anyone I may have inadvertently offended.

The bag was a purchase I made as a tourist in China and I did not realise the potentially hurtful nature of the slogan printed on it.

"I'm sorry for any people's pain and suffering and it was certainly never my intention to reopen what I now know is a painful wound in this country's history."

One day, I'm going to surprise myself and fall completely head over heels for someone and be swept off my feet!"

Earlier this week (begs11Jun07), the Mean Girls actress posted Weaver's phone number on her MySpace page and urged her fans to give him "a piece of your mind".

Brad Pitt showered lover Angelina Jolie with special gifts and cooked an "amazing" meal for her birthday.

Angelina, who turned 32 last Monday (04.07.06), was thrilled to discover Brad had filled their Los Angeles home with flowers.

Britney Spears' 'sad' mistakes

Britney Spears' mother says it's "sad the whole world" saw her daughter make mistakes.

Lynne Spears - who recently rekindled her fragile relationship with Britney after the singer's stint in rehab - says her daughter is finding it difficult to figure out her problems.

Lynne told Us Weekly magazine: "You go into a time in your life with the world watching and you are just trying to figure yourself out. It's sad that the whole world had to watch her make mistakes that all of us have made at one time or another."

Britney, who has two sons Sean Preston and Jayden James, with estranged husband Kevin Federline, recently cut Lynne out of her life and refused to speak to her.

Sources claimed the 'Toxic' singer was furious with Lynne for making her check into rehab to seek help for her alleged alcohol addiction and post-natal depression earlier this year.

However, the pair have since patched up their differences and are said to be moving on with their relationship.

Lynne says things are a lot better now but admits Britney still has a long way to go

Pamela Anderson Lands Magical Birthday Deal

Pamela Anderson Lands Magical Birthday Deal.... Pamela Anderson has been given an early 40th birthday gift - $3 million (£1.5 million) for her 12-minute contribution to Las Vegas illusionist Hans Klok's nightly show.

The actress/model, who turns 40 next month (01Jul07) will net $3 million for her role as Klok's assistant in his Planet Hollywood Hotel and Casino summer show, The Beauty of Magic.

Vegas insider Michael Politz says, "This is an easy summer gig for Pam - 12 minutes per show, four shows weekly.

"She also gets a large suite and the use of a private jet for commuting to her Southern California home at her disposal as part of her magical deal."

But Anderson almost missed out on the chance to play the magic man's sidekick - Carmen Electra was Klok's first choice but she had to pull out of the show after realising she was too claustrophobic for some of the illusionist's stunts.

Politz explains, "Carmen Electra had her sights on a show like this for years but found out she suffers from claustrophobia during rehearsals with Hans Klok."

Meanwhile, Anderson has spurned offers to host her 40th birthday at a number of Las Vegas clubs and will instead dine with her vegan pals at People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta).

But, as she made plans to appear on the show, she learned the four co-hosts of the popular programme were insisting on grilling her about Britney - and she cancelled, according to Life & Style magazine.

An insider tells the publication, "Lynne wouldn't do it."

The decision not to do the show has reportedly brought Britney and her mum closer together - after they fell out over rehab plans; Britney wanted to avoid counselling, but her worried mum insisted the pop star check into Promises rehab facility in Malibu, and then personally drove her there.

Family sources admit Lynne is thrilled she and her daughter are talking again. One tells Life & Style, "Lynne is more hurt than anything. She feels she sacrificed everything for Britney."

JFK Jr. And Madonna's Sex Secret Exposed

A new bio of John F Kennedy Jr reveals that the only thing that kept him and superstar Madonna from hopping into bed with each other, was a lack of latex.

Rob Littell, one of Kennedy’s closest pals from Brown University, tells author C. David Heymann in "American Legacy" that the scion of the Kennedy family and Madonna had been indulging in a flirtation that they had finally decided to take to the next level during the summer of 1988.

At the time, Madge was still married to first hubby Sean Penn, and Kennedy had a steady girlfriend.

However, all plans for a passionate romp at a "cheap, dinky" Chicago hotel came to a grinding halt when the two realised that they were not carrying any condoms.

"They were working their way around the bases, and as they rounded third and headed for home, she asked him if he had any protection. He didn't, so now they began discussing how they were going to get a hold of a prophylactic," the New York Post quoted Littell, as telling Heymann in the book.

"She was still legally married to Sean Penn, and he had a steady girlfriend . . . They were afraid of being busted. They couldn't very well just meander into a pharmacy and ask for a pack of Trojans. They were too well known"

And, with that one chance, it seems that JFK Jr also lost out on bedding the famous music icon.

"To John's great chagrin, the relationship was never completed," Littell adds.

The biography also claims that the charismatic JFK Jr was also as interested in men, as he was in women.

"He confided - and I believed him - that he'd had several flings with men,” says French physical therapist Jean Christian Massard, who went clubbing with JFK Jr. in the late '80s.

"I know he was attracted to me because when we danced he played with my a - - and stuff. He kissed me on the dance floor, and I kissed him back," adds transsexual Warhol superstar Holly Woodlawn, who met Kennedy at Studio 54.

Hilton Costs Taxpayer 11 Times Average Inmate

Hilton Costs Taxpayer 11 Times Average Inmate.... Socialite Paris Hilton's spell in jail is costing the taxpayer more than 11 times what it costs to incarcerate the average inmate.

The 26-year-old hotel heiress costs Los Angeles County $1,109.78 (£554.89), compared to the average $99.64 (£49.82).

Los Angeles Sherriff's Department spokesman Steve Whitmore tells website Tmz.com, Hilton's tab includes medical treatment and staff associated with her requirements.

Hilton was sent back to the Century Regional Detention Center in Lynwood, California on Friday (08Jun07) to finish the 45-day sentence she began earlier this month (03Jun07) - after a judge reversed the decision to allow her to complete the sentence under house arrest.

If Hilton had finished her sentence at home, it would have cost the County nothing.

Richardson Demanded A Scene With Her Mum.

Richardson Demanded A Scene With Her Mum.... Natasha Richardson only agreed to appear in new movie Evening if writer/director Michael Cunningham agreed to write her into a scene with her mother.

The British actress plays her real-life mum Vanessa Redgrave's daughter in the film and was upset when she realised she wouldn't share a scene with the veteran thespian.

She says, "When they offered me the part there was no scene with my mother and I was like, `You have a unique opportunity here. You've got to take advantage. If I do this with my mom, this is the one shot deal and we have to have a moment, and I think it makes sense for the story.' "I said, 'If you write a scene for the two of us, then I'll do the movie,' and so Michael wrote that scene."

Richardson admits parts of the film were extra tough because the movie focuses on the last days of a dying woman, played by her own mum.

She adds, "It's incredibly painful to watch your own real mother lying in that bed and being so convincingly ill. It makes me project all sorts of things... This will probably be the first and last time we play mother and daughter, which is why it was so special. I can't imagine that anyone would ask us to do it again."

Angelina Jolie to quit acting

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt plan to quit acting in a few years to focus on their family.

The 'A Mighty Heart' actress has revealed the couple plan to swap Hollywood for a life of travelling, parenthood and normal living.

She said in an interview with Parade magazine: "Brad and I have a lot of kids, and we want to have more. And they demand a lot of time. It takes a lot just to get all of them fed and clothed and out the door to different schools on time.

"It's fun and we love it. But you can't balance everything. I think both of us only plan to work for a few more years. We'll try to just stop sooner or later, so we can be at home and travel, and just live."

Angelina and Brad - who have three adopted children, Cambodian son Maddox, five, three-year-old Vietnamese son Pax Thien and Ethiopian daughter Zahara, two, and one-year-old biological daughter Shiloh - started dating after co-starring in 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' together in 2005.

UN Goodwill Ambassador Angelina also defended herself against the critics who have slammed her decision to adopt children from different countries.

She said: "I feel like I am getting such a great education. Whether people's thoughts about my family are positive or negative, at the end of the day, I get to come home to these four little people who are the greatest things in the world."

Pitt and Jolie talk hot in hot bath!

The place where Brad Pitt finds it easiest to get his lady love Angelina Jolie talking, is in the bath.

The ‘Mr and Mrs Smith’ actress, in an interview with Marie Claire magazine, reveals that the easiest way her beau can get her talking, is by getting into the tub with her while she’s relaxing after a long day’s work.

She also reveals that she somehow finds it easier to open up when she’s not wearing a stitch of clothing.

"I don't know how he does it, but ... I talk a lot in the bath," People quoted her, as telling the mag for its July issue.

"It's easier to talk when you're naked... Get naked with me, and I'll talk!" Jolie adds.

Jolie also gushes about her beau’s parenting skills, and admits that she just loves seeing the relationship Brad shares with the kids, especially oldest kid 5-year old Maddox.

"I'm so happy for my children – especially Mad. I didn't know if he was ever going to have a dad. So when I watch them having real strong father-son time, or even when Mad tells me, 'This is a boy thing, Mom' – it's just really beautiful to see," she says.

As for her own relationship with Brad, Jolie says that their connection has grown over time, and that they are ‘lucky’ that they turned out to be right for each other, especially since their family has grown so quickly over the past two years.

The couple, who met on the sets of the 2005 film ‘Mr and Mrs Smith’, embarked on a relationship after Pitt’s divorce to former ‘Friends’ star Jennifer Aniston came through in March 2005.

"I think we both went on a lot of faith – we really did. Our family has grown very quickly, and we have a lot of responsibility together, and we acknowledge that we are lucky we turned out be for each other everything we'd hoped," she says.

"We could have been very wrong, but every challenge we hit has brought us closer. It has been that kind of relationship," she adds.

Jordan Plans Intimate Surgery After Birth

Jordan wants to have her vagina "tightened up" after her daughter is born.

The British glamour model is due to give birth to her third child this month and is determined to have vaginoplasty surgery to restore her vagina to its former glory.

Jordan - who is married to Peter Andre - told OK! magazine: "The thing is I'm a very small girl and my first son Harvey was a very big baby to push out and I know lots of women suffer from a prolapsed womb after they've had a baby. I do feel different inside so I want to get that checked out after I've had this one.

"I wouldn't be doing it because I want to be smaller, because Pete likes me the way I am.

"But, and women who've had kids will know what I'm talking about, sometimes you're not as tight down there as you'd like afterwards. Sometimes if you cough or sneeze a bit of wee comes out! I just have to cross my legs and hope it doesn't trickle down my leg.

"It's not really a designer vagina I'm considering, but I'll probably get a couple of extra stitches put in while they're down there!"

The 29-year-old beauty also revealed she is having trouble grooming her pubic hair with her huge baby bump in the way.

Rihanna whips up a storm

Four years ago, like thousands of others across the world, Rihanna was a 15-year-old schoolgirl with dreams of music stardom. But for Rhianna, the dream was destined to come true, and it started with a life-changing case of being in the right place at the right time.

Music producer, Evan Rogers, was on holiday in Rihanna's native Barbados with his wife in 2003. A friend introduced them and, spotting the ambitious teen's talents right away, Evan helped her record some music samples and send them off to various recording studios, including American rapper Jay-Z's label, Def Jam.

After belting out Whitney Houston's 'For the Love of You', Rihanna was signed to the label.

"It took me two minutes to see she was a star," Jay-Z said of the singer.

The respect was mutual. Thrilled at being signed by the young tycoon, who is dating R+B beauty Beyoncé Knowles, Rihanna said: "I think I am signed to the greatest label on earth. Everyone from the artists, to the staff, to senior executives have been incredibly supportive.

"I always say that without Def Jam, all of my successes would not be possible. Sometimes it doesn't even feel like I am signed to a label but more like a family."

Now, at 19, Rihanna has gained international pop star status with her numerous chart-topping hits and movie appearances.

Nicky Hilton Slams Jail-term As Paris Plans Memoirs Sale

Nicky Hilton Brands Sister's Jail-term Absurd.... Paris Hilton's sister Nicky has branded her sister's 23-day jail sentence "pretty absurd".

Jessica Alba doesn't think she's sexy enough


Jessica Alba doesn't think she's sexy enough

She’s considered to be one of the most beautiful, and hottest, young stars in Hollywood, but the only person who isn’t impressed with Jessica Alba’s looks, is the lady herself.

Alba tells Parade magazine that though men’s mag FHM named her the Sexiest Woman in the World this year, she doesn’t really see herself as a sex symbol.

In fact, Alba feels that on most days, she looks less than ordinary.

“I don’t really pay attention to all that. It’s only when people start to treat me like one that it really freaks me out. Most days I wake up and look in the mirror and go, ‘ugh.’ I don’t really think I look all that great,” Us Weekly quoted her, as telling the mag.

Another thing that the star wishes she could be is anonymous. Alba confessed that she only time she willingly appears in the papers, is when she’s promoting a new film.

And this is why she feels that tabloids often make up stories about her.

“I never want to be in the papers except when I’m promoting a movie, but if they have to, they’ll make up lies about me just to have something newsworthy to say. The more controversial the story is, the more buzz it can get, and the more it’ll sell,” she says.

“I prefer to be a little more anonymous, under the radar. I like to be able to slide in and out of situations unnoticed,” she added.

Alba, who reprised her role as the Invisible Woman in the Fantastic Four series, will now be seen on the big screen when the new movie ‘Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer’ hits theatres.

Angelina Jolie's whale trip


Angelina Jolie's whale trip

Angelina Jolie has taken her sons to feed killer whales.

The 'Tomb Raider' star took Pax Thien, three, and Maddox, five, to Marineland in Antibes, while in France for the Cannes Film Festival.

But while Pax jumped at the opportunity, Maddox stayed behind a wall as his mother and younger brother fed fish to the ocean predators.

The trip came just days before Angelina and her partner Brad Pitt celebrated their daughter Shiloh's first birthday.

Shiloh, her brothers and two-year-old adopted sister Zahara were treated to cookies and cake and were allowed to play with over 50 different coloured balloons.

The celebration took place in Prague, where Angelina is currently filming new thriller 'Wanted'.

Earlier this week, it was reported that Angelina and Brad are planning to marry in a lavish secret ceremony later this year.

Courteney Cox's IVF plan


Courteney Cox's IVF plan

Courteney Cox is planning to have IVF treatment again so she can have another baby.

The 42-year-old actress and her husband David Arquette conceived daughter Coco, who will turn three in June, after IVF and Courteney has already had more blood tests to begin the process all over.

Courteney said in an interview with Marie Claire magazine: "I'm not really ready right this second, but I'll probably do it one more time. I'm planning to do IVF again.

"I used to want to have eight kids. It was such a fantasy when I was younger, because my mother, who was an only child, had four kids.

"Now, looking back, I don't understand how she did it."

The former 'Friends' actress suffered from post-natal depression and admits having a baby is hard work.

She said: "I think the baby part - like waking up early - is hard. Really hard. Do I believe in post-natal depression? Yes. Did I have the worst case of it? No.

Beckham Quits £10 Million Tv Show?

Beckham Quits £10 Million Tv Show?.... Victoria Beckham has reportedly pulled the plug on her £10 million ($20 million) U.S. reality show - so she can watch her soccer star husband David make his return to the England team.

The former Spice Girl has been letting a TV film crew document her efforts to settle into her new Los Angeles home as her family prepares to move to the city next month (Jul07) when David begins his contract with La Galaxy.

But a British tabloid is today (01Jun07) claiming the pop star has pulled out of the document altogether, because TV bosses demanded she stay in the U.S.

this week (begs28May07) - and miss out on Beckham's first match for England since he was dropped from the squad last year (06).

A source tells the Daily Mirror, "She told producers she was not going to miss David's England game and they seemed unwilling to compromise.

"It's a real sacrifice for her as the TV series was a great launch-pad for her career over there. But there is absolutely no way she'd have sacrificed being there to spur him on... just to do a TV show - regardless of how much it would help her profile in the US."

The singer's spokeswoman adds, "Victoria has had great fun filming the show.
