Gisele Bundchen Speaks on Baby Benjamin

Of all the celebrity babies out there, Gisele Bundchen may have the most genetically blessed. The supermodel procreated with NFL star Tom Brady in December.

Motherhood seems to suit the Brazilian stunner, as well.

"In these first months, the baby feeds twice in two hours or three times in three hours. It is really tiring, but it's such a special moment," the 29-year-old says.

"I have dedicated my days completely to him."

Gisele, who calls her newborn son "a little angel," has been changed by parenthood: "To be a mother is a magical experience. The whole body is transformed.

"It really is the miracle of life. I am really happy!"

Hot Gisele Photo

Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady have passed on their perfect DNA.

She's already gone back to work, posing for a photoshoot for the Brazilian label Colcci, but she's not using a nanny, instead relying on her family to help her.

"My mother [Vania] accompanied me since before Benjamin's birth," she says. "She gave me great support. I couldn't ask God for more support than this."

Even though "I put on a little weight," the supermodel also reveals that - shockingly - she didn't take her pregnancy as an excuse to indulge in junk food.

"I tried to stay in good shape during the whole pregnancy, eating healthily, meditating, and doing exercises like yoga and kung-fu," says Bundchen.

Right now, she won't speculate on having another child, but one thing is for certain: Tom Brady has seen Gisele Bundchen nude at least once.

Lost Scoop: New Preview, the End of Matthew Fox on TV

Warning: The following post contains a couple Lost spoilers.

If you wish to head into tonight's season six premiere completely fresh, go read about the insanity of Tila Tequila. Otherwise, read on to learn about when you might see Matthew Fox again.

Short answer: never.

"I won't be doing any more television," the actor told Us Weekly. "I've done two six-year shows, about 300 hours of television. I'm done with that."

The man that made Dr. Jack Shepard into an iconic figure says his family will move to Oregon and "I'm either going to make movies with filmmakers I want to work with or I'll be doing something else entirely."

As for spoilers more related to the greatest show in TV history? ABC has released the first Lost promo that shows new footage from the drama. Watch below and comment on what you're most looking forward to this season:

Angelina Pivarnick: Back For Jersey Shore Season 2

Angelina Pivarnick, a.k.a. the girl who bailed on the Jersey Shore house early in the show's first season, is coming back to Jersey Shore for its second season.

The bartender who "does great things" (one of our favorite Jersey Shore quotes) and couldn't take working in the lowly t-shirt store will be there and it is on.

Especially if your name is J-Woww.

Pivarnick, the self-proclaimed "Kim Kardashian of Staten Island" (whatever the hell that implies) says J-Woww (a.k.a. Jenni Farley) better watch her back!

Jersey ShoreJ-Woww Pic

Who would you rather ... not get in a fist fight with?

Angelina's comments came in response to J-Woww dissing her last week. "I don't wanna fight with people in the house, but if I have to, I have to," she says.

Over the weekend at Glo on Long Island, the possible future Playboy model says she hopes Angelina "stays the hell away" from Jersey Shore next season.

The Situation, Snooki and Co. have not commented, but ladies, take off the hair extensions, 'cause it looks like these two guidettes are gonna throw DOWN.

J-Woww is the early favorite with 3:2 odds.

Kourtney Kardashian Takes Baby Pimping to New Level

Note to Larry Birkhead: the baby pimping bar has been raised to a new level. Will you meet it?

To do so, Anna Nicole Smith's baby daddy will need to bring his young child on to a radio show and then act as if he's doing it just to see a pal.

That's what Kourtney Kardashian actually did yesterday, lugging newborn Mason Dash Disick to the studio for Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show.


Baby Pimping

"How cute is baby Mason?!" Seacreast asked, happily playing the role of enabler to one of the stars of a series he producers. "Is baby ready to feed? He's looking for your breast."

Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian accompanied their exploitive sisiter to the show, as Kourtney wrote on her blog: "I take Mason everywhere with me. We had to stop in and surprise Ryan!"

Of course they did. The show is televised, after all. Can little Mason say photo op?!?

Nick Jonas Looks Cute, Dishes on Solo Career

Yes, Nick Jonas has embarked on a solo career.

But, no, the adorable mop head is not finished recording with his brothers.

Those are the main points covered by the singer in the latest issue of Teen Vogue. Below, while posing a few adorable shots of Nick, we summarize the rest of his interview...

On fronting his own band: Songs were pouring out of me. I've been wanting to do this for three years.

On love: I want someone to love me for my passion for music. It's all I've ever thought about.

On the future of The Jonas Brothers: I promise you, the trio is intact.

On Broadway: Broadway had a big part in my realizing that I wanted to make music a career. I'd love to go back.

Sounds like an intelligent, grounded, well-spoken guy. Aren't you sad you let him get away, Miley Cyrus?

Producer Pushing Lindsay Lohan-Lady Gaga Duet

Lindsay Lohan and Lady Gaga collaborating in the studio?

Don't bet on it, but producer Rodney Jerkins, who's going to be out of work if he keeps coming up with ideas like this, says he'd like the two to work together.

"I can pair them up," says Jerkins, who recently collaborated on Gaga's "Telephone" with Beyoncé. "I would love it. I would love to see what could happen."

While it sounds like convincing the Lost writers to collaborate with the total hacks who bring you Heroes, Jerkins thinks this would be a can't miss project.

He also thinks Lohan can be the next big thing in music. We were thinking that she can be the next big thing in 5150 holds at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Linds CanGa Ga Ooh La La

A Lindsay Lohan and Lady Gaga collaboration? We don't see it. Talk about diluting the brand! Gaga's, that is. [Pics: PacificCoastNewsOnline.com; Splash News Online]

"If she stays focused, she has what it takes," Jerkins said, seemingly seriously. "I've talked to her, and I said, 'You've got what it takes. I believe in you.'"

"I've seen people question actresses who have wanted to become pop stars, and they don't have it. I believe she has it, something deep down."

"I think there's something there. It just needs to be pulled out."

The only thing pulled out when it comes to Lohan is ... forget it.

Basically, don't hold your breath for this duet. Lady Gaga's Grammy performance showed what a dynamic performer she is. Lohan? Not in her league.

Selena Gomez Gushes About Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner

Late last week, Selena Gomez appeared on Ryan Seacrest's radio show.

Shockingly, she didn't pimp out any babies. Instead, she simply gushed about a friend.

“One of my favorite stories with Taylor Swift was when I was going through a very hard breakup," Selena told listeners. "She came to my house at 10:30 at night and knocked on my door. I opened it, and she had two big bags of junk food, cookies, Snickers and soda."

“She put it on the table, put her laptop on, we made a video, and she told me that now we could look forward to breakups, since we know the other one will get us junk food!”

That may be the cutest story we've ever heard. Let's hope Swift doesn't require the same treatment, though, if her rumored relationship with Cory Monteith sours.

Selena on the Red Carpet Beloved Swift

Overall, Selena concluded about her pal: “She’s very sweet. I feel very lucky to have her in my life."

Of course, there's another Taylor in Gomez's life. What does she think of Twilight Saga stud Taylor Lautner?

"[He's amazing]. He is so awesome... I love Lautner!”

Selena isn't exactly alone in that opinion. Far from it.

Happy Birthday, Shakira!

It's a big day for superstitious TV fans.

Despite the efforts of the morons at PETA, Punxsutawney Phil will prognosticate on the winter later this morning; while Lost will premiere its sixth and final season.

But it's also a big day for one of the most underrated singers on the planet: Shakira turns 33!

Because her hips don't lie, we must also be honest with readers when it comes to this artist. She's ridiculously talented. Shakira has won a pair of Grammy Awards, eight Latin Grammys and even received a Golden Globe nomination.

Moreover, Shakira started the Pies Descalzos Foundation, which subsidizes education and builds schools in the star's home country of Colombia.

For her humanitarian efforts and a dancing style that makes monks drool, we encourage readers to send in their birthday wishes to Shakira today...

Hayden Panettiere, Wladimir Klitschko Go Public

Looks like Hayden Panettiere and Wladimir Klitschko are officially a couple ... or at least good friends who accompany each other to things like movie premieres.

Originally seen together in Miami over New Year's, the two were spotted (and looking hot) at the "Best of Musical Gala" in Hamburg, Germany Saturday night.

As you can see, there's a bit of a height difference. The Ukrainian boxing champ and actress may seem to have little in common, but they are making it work.

Here's Hayden Panettiere and Wladimir Klitschko ...

What can these two see in each other? While on the surface, this couple makes less sense than last night's Heroes, we're not judging. To each their own!

No offense to Sanda Bullock and left tackles around the world, but The Blind Side deserves a Best Picture nomination about as much as Jake Pavelka deserves an award for sincerity.

Snooki Nude Photos: Allegedly, Disgustingly Real

The Jersey Shore cast just can't keep its pants on - on or off camera.

According to Radar Online, photos and video of Snooki nude have been obtained by someone and are for sale. Pics and videos are being shopped to media outlets.

Now Snooki, a.k.a. Nicole Polizzi, is notoriously unlucky in love. Now it appears she’s supplied a self-taken preview of what a potential boyfriend could be seeing.

Somehow we don't suspect it will fetch top dollar. After all, if you're trying to hawk pics of a 4'10" Oompa Loompa naked, you're really going after a niche market.

Even if you do want to see Snooki naked, just go to Karma every Wednesday night from Memorial Day-Labor Day. She falls out of her "dress" on a routine basis.

Snooki Polizzi Pic

For the right price, you could own nude pics of this goddess.

Snooki is not the first of the Jersey Shore gang to be tied to a nude photo story. Just last week, we reported that there are pics of J-Woww nude up for sale too.

Once again, do you really need to shell out big bucks for that? Just spend $4.95 on one of those gross bodybuilding magazines, it's pretty much the same thing.

As for Nicole Polizzi, the stills and video show her "wearing only a smile." In one photo she is in her bedroom, on her knees, one hand on the ground and the other holding the bed frame. She is looking at the camera with her head tilted slightly.

Her nail polish is plainly visible. Another shot is "too graphic to describe."

Please, try to projectile vomit away from the computer screen.

We Are (Still) The World: A Photo Montage

We have a special responsibility to help needy people.

- Celine Dion

So said the widely-respected singer yesterday, as she and over 80 celebrities gathered at the same Hollywood studio where the original version of "We Are the World" was recorded.

The stars have aligned to assist those in Haiti, as all profits from this remade single will go toward relief efforts in the region. Among the eclectic mix of voices to be heard on the song:

Kanye West, Tony Bennett, Snoop Dogg, Jamie Foxx, Jeff Bridges, LL Cool J and Justin Bieber, the latter of whom Tweeted:

"One of the greatest experiences of my life - singing WE ARE THE WORLD with all those stars and taking direction from the greats."

Heck, even Miley Cyrus stopped serving herself for a moment and got involved. Check out her recording session below, along with other stars at the studio:

World Wonders: Lady Gaga Have Man Parts?

It's a question that surfaced last summer and continues to confound the masses: Does Lady Gaga have man parts? In other words, is she a hermaphrodite?

Video filmed at the UK's Glastonbury festival, coupled with her androgynous act and suggestive lyrics, gave birth to the hermaphrodite rumors in August.

As a blog that reports celebrity news and gossip 24/7, we've certainly heard crazier rumors. But what's really surprising is the staying power of this one.

Perhaps that's how she wants it. Speaking coyly on the topic with Barbara Walters last month, Gaga acknowledged that androgyny is part of her appeal.

Now, following her eye-opening performance at Sunday night's Grammy Awards, the question is once again front and center: Is fair Lady Gaga part man?

Vote below in our survey below and tell us what you think...

Kim Kardashian Kritiques Celebrity Fashion, Needs a Life

Kim Kardashian really needs to get a life. Or at least a baby.

Granted, she'll parade that poor child to every publicity op she can found, just like sister Kourtney, but at least she'll be doing something with her life.

The alternative - while one sister is off profiting from her marriage and the other from her child - appears to be for Kim to sit back and Tweet pictures of herself in a bikini. Or critique fellow celebrities on the red carpet.

Another Ugly Outfit

Based on ridiculous outfits such as this, what makes Kim Kardashian qualified to judge others?

That's what Kardashian has taken to her blog to do, as she posted the following Grammy Award opinions yesterday:

Beyonce: 100 percent my pick for best dressed of the night. This Stephane Rolland dress is so gorgeous and her eye makeup works perfectly with the Egyptian feel. I also love the side part in her hair and the subtle glitter highlights. She always looks flawless and I love that she flaunts her curves!

Miley: Miley's Herve Leger dress was totally cute and age-appropriate. Some teens try to take themselves too seriously, and I love that Miley just has fun with her fashion and always stays true to her individual style.

Taylor Swift: Love this Kaufman Franco dress on Taylor! This is a hard dress to pull off because the sparkly fabric accentuates every curve, but she is tall and has a really slender frame so it works. Plus she wouldn't be Taylor Swift without her glitter, right? Doesn't she always look so classy!?

Sure, THG posted a series of fashion face-offs yesterday, too. But here's the difference between our staff and Kim: We know we have no life!

Justin Mentell, Boston Legal Star, Dies in Car Crash

Actor Justin Mentell, perhaps best known for his starring role on Boston Legal, died in a car accident in rural Waukegan, Illinois yesterday morning.

He was just 27 years old.

Mentell passed away when his Jeep swerved off a steep embankment and hit two trees at about 8:30 a.m. The actor was not wearing a seatbelt.

Justin Mentell portrayed lawyer Garrett Wells on Boston Legal from 2005-2006; more recently, he appeared as Terrell in the 2009 film G-Force.

Justin Mentell

R.I.P. Justin Mentell (1982-2010).

Born in Austin, Tex., Mentell was also an accomplished athlete who was a former member of the U.S. Junior National Speedskating team.

Our condolences go out to his loved ones.

Sad news like this tends to happen in bunches. Mentell's death follows the passing of former NFL star Jay Novacek's wife LeAnne and news of Phil Harris of Deadliest Catch falling into a coma after a stroke. We'll be hoping for Phil's recovery.

Simon Monjack Launches Brittany Murphy Foundation

For a mere $1,000, you can attend an event honoring the late Brittany Murphy and line Simon Monjack's pockets support the Brittany Murphy Foundation.

Forgive us for being skeptical, but when the late star's husband launched the foundation last Thursday, we couldn't help but wonder what he's really up to.

Something about that dude is just shady.

Yes, the Brittany Murphy Foundation is dedicated to arts education for kids. Yes, Monjack says he started the non-profit with $1 million of his own money.

But would it surprise you if as head of the foundation, Simon Monjack paid himself a nice six-figure salary for his time? All tax-free of course? Just asking.

Brittany Murphy Foundation

That's just us being skeptical. We have no proof that's true. But an Us source says "Everyone thinks it's very tacky that he's making it so much about money."

Monjack is requesting donations of $1,000 per person and $10,000 per corporation to attend the event, taking place at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills.

For once, Monjack has yet to comment. He has been a talk show and magazine staple since his wife's death in an effort to clear her name (and his own).

Murphy was found dead December 20 at the age of 32. The results of the toxicology report to determine the star's cause of her death are still pending.

THG on TV: Bash Heroes with Us!

Forget Simon Monjack's latest actions. Forget the rumor of Snooki nude photos. Something even more distasteful is out there:

Last night's Heroes episode. As our friends at TV Fanatic explain, it was an atrocious an hour of television. Read a detailed review of it now, and click on the links below for more rundowns of last night's primetime pickings...

  • Tensions arose everywhere on the latest Greek installment.
  • We met Foreman's brother, played by Orlando Jones, on House.
  • Renee spread her legs for a really bad guy on 24.

From The Wall

  • No way Ellen played a role in Tom's death on Damages.... right?
  • Chuck grew up big time on NBC's best hour-long show, Chuck.
  • Barney went on even more dates than usual on How I Met Your Mother.
  • Alan ended up in jail on Two and a Half Men.
  • Sheldon got an everyday job on The Big Bang Theory.
  • The theme of last night's Life Unexpected episode? Family. Awww!

Madonna and Jesus Luz: It's So Over

They've been the subject of wedding and even baby rumors recently, but now Madonna and Jesus Luz have made news for a very different reason.

The Queen of Pop and her teenage boy toy broke up.

Okay, we lied just now. Jesus Luz is not actually a teen (he's 23). But when you consider he was dating a 51-year-old, the model might as well be.

Occasional paparazzi shots aside, it’s always been debatable what kind of relationship the two truly shared. But the split was supposedly amicable.

The Daily Mail reported that they not only broke up on good terms, "but it was Luz who initiated the split. It’s the age difference. He’s 23. She’s 51."

How long could it last?

Madonna, Jesus Luz Kiss

Jesus Luz and Madonna at the W shoot that started it all.

"How it even lasted a year seems a miracle to a lot of people. Jesus is perfectly nice, a gentleman and very smart. But they are in such different places in their lives," said a source. "They both benefited, but it’s pretty much over now."

"Madonna said, 'We just run out of things to talk about. I mean, it’s pushing it for us to have common ground. We have Kabbalah, that’s about it.'"

Oh well, as long as they "both benefited." Here's a look at some of the best shots of Madonna and Jesus Luz from their long and storied history ...

John Mayer Speaks on Tiger Woods' Plight, Refers to Self in Third-Person a Lot

John Mayer is a douchebag.

Sorry, but sometimes (okay, often), the dude is just so obsessed with himself and hearing himself talk that we can't think of better words to describe him.

Case in point? His recent comments about Tiger Woods ... and naturally how the golfer's plight relates to that of John Mayer, according to John Mayer.

"Tiger Woods' problems come from him being married. The end," the douchebag explains to the UK's Independent. "It has nothing to do with control."

"If Tiger Woods was a single guy," Mayer opines, "what sort of angle would there be to a text message? If Tiger Woods was single, and he texted a girl and said 'I wanna wear your ass like a hat,' why would that ever hit the news?"

The Douchebag KingThe Driver

He may have a point. But of course, it's all about John Mayer.

"I can text whatever I want to anybody in the world; I'm not married. I write a lot of dirty text messages to girls, and you've never seen any of them," he says.

"Why? Because if a girl brought a dirty text from me to the newspapers, they'd say 'I don't have an angle here. Someone wants to wear your ass like a hat?"

"Big deal. He's 32 years old. He's a single guy. If John Mayer has a wife and sends dirty text messages, then we got a story.' And that's why I won't do that."

"When I get married that's gonna be my vows, 'Do you, John Mayer, take this woman to have and to hold, to wear her ass like headgear, now and forever?'"

"Yes, I do. You're the one whose ass I wanna wear like a hat for the rest of my life. With this whole Tiger Woods scandal," he says, "I wish more people would be like, 'You know what, John Mayer? You didn't f--k up at all.'"

And we thought him bragging about his self-pleasuring expertise was bad. He and Mel Gibson need to start an Egomaniacs Who Heart Tiger Woods club.

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart: Slapped on the Wrist

Settle down, Robsten supporters.

There was a bit of Internet buzz yesterday that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart had broken up, or at least taken a break from seeing each other.

But E! News has clarified its original report and now states the following: Rob and Kristen are very much together and quite happy, but multiple movie studio executives would like them to cool off just a bit.

"Let's just say Rob and Kristen got a slap on the wrist," said an insider. "Everyone, from their management to the studios involved in their upcoming movies, is worried [Rob and Kristen] will start to become... distracted."

Pretty Montage

This concern seems a bit misguided, considering how rarely the couple is actually seen together and how mature each side handles the relationship.

But there are a lot of jobs and a lot of money at stake on each actor's next film - The Runaways for Stewart and Remember Me for Pattinson - and sources say higher-ups wish to make sure that Pattinson and Stewart have their eyes on the proverbial ball.

Of course, these same suits will be pushing Robert and Kristen to travel everywhere together when it's time to promote Eclipse. It can't be easy to date in Hollywood.

Hang in there, you two!

Dr. Conrad Murray to Surrender Imminently in Michael Jackson Case

Dr. Conrad Murray, Michael Jackson's embattled personal physician, will likely turn himself as police prepare to file charges in connection with the King of Pop's death.

According to TMZ, Murray is already in Los Angeles (his home base is Houston) and plans to surrender to the authorities Wednesday morning in an L.A. courtroom.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney will almost certainly charge Dr. Conrad Murray with involuntary manslaughter, and that may happen as early as this week.

Charges would have to be filed before any court appearance, so if Murray plans to surrender tomorrow morning, the D.A.'s office may charge him at that time.

Many times, defendants (or their lawyers) arrange for a surrender, rather than face the costly, embarrassing spectacle of being arrested and taken into custody.

Worst. Doctor. Ever.

It's unclear if Murray will be released on bail when and if he is charged.

Dr. Conrad Murray will almost certainly enter a plea of not guilty to involuntary manslaughter (or whatever charge he faces) and begin preparing his defense.

We say this because he has already retained a new attorney, J. Michael Flanagan, who successfully defended a doctor client for fatally administering Propofol.

Murray's use of the anesthetic to treat Jackson will form the crux of the D.A.'s case that he be held criminally liable for the death of the music icon June 25.

The Michael Jackson investigation has taken half a year to complete, and officials are determined not to blow it. It should be very interesting to watch unfold.

Joe Jonas: Almost Confirmed for Brothers & Sisters

Joe Jonas has risen to fame alongside his siblings.

Therefore, it's apt that his first major TV role would come on a show titled Brothers & Sisters.

According to reliable sources, the singer will portray a younger version of Balthazar Getty's character, Tommy, on an upcoming flashback episode of the ABC drama.

Double J

In a recent interview, Joe said he, Nick and Kevin would eventually reunite for an album, but that he wanted to use this time to further his acting career. Assuming this rumor is valid, he's found a great, critically-acclaimed series on which to do it.

Insiders also said Rachel Leigh Cook might appear in these episods (as a young Nora Walker); while Kay Panabaker will take on Calista Flockhart's character of Kitty.

Simon Cowell and Company Help Haiti

You might know him as the cranky judge on American Idol, but Simon Cowell has a soft and charitable side.

And it was on full display this week.

The music producer has gathered a slew of artists for a London-based charity single, a cover of R.E.M.'s "Everybody Hurts." The version hit British radio this morning and is worth a listen:


Everybody Hurts Rendition

The single features Mariah Carey, Miley Cyrus, Rod Stewart, Jon Bon Jovi, Michael Bublé, Susan Boyle, Kylie Minogue, Robbie Williams, Cheryl Cole, Leona Lewis, Mika and James Blunt, among others.

It will be available for download this Sunday, with all proceeds benefitting the victims of the earthquake in Haiti.

Yesterday in Hollywood, meanwhile, over 80 singers united to record a remake of "We Are the World."

Isn't it refreshing to see so many celebrities get together for a reason that doesn't include a police blotter or publicity for a movie?
