  • Anna Kendrick Offers Advice On (NOT) Finding Prince Charming

    Anna Kendrick, who plays Cinderella in Into the Woods, has some very specific thoughts about dating and finding Prince Charming, or not finding Prince Charming as the case may be.

    The 29-year-old opened up about love and dating in an interview for the cover of February’s edition of Fashion magazine.

    “The idea that Cinderella gets cheated on by her prince is the most twisted and genius concept,” she told the magazine and shared her viewpoint on what type of men should be avoided.

    “I’ve never really gone for the razzle-dazzle types, no quarterbacks, no flashy guys and no Prince Charmings. Chris Pine’s version of Prince Charming is so funny, and so on-point, and very much all style and no substance,” she said of her Into the Woods costar. “A [date] once picked me up in a Mustang and he was leaning on the hood of it. He was waiting for me and I was inside my apartment, looking out the window, thinking ‘Oh, this is going to go terribly.’”

    Kendrick continued to single out men who enjoy making a woman fearful or uncomfortable.

    “The wrong kind of guy to fall in love with is the guy who will let go of the steering wheel as a joke. A guy who finds it amusing to make you uncomfortable—which is more common than you’d think—is someone you want to avoid.”

    Kendrick also shared lessons learned from her own parents divorce.

    “They taught me that staying together for the kids is the wrong approach. It perpetuates this warped idea of what a healthy relationship looks like.”

  • Ryan Reynolds and Wife Blake Lively Welcome Their First Child

    Ryan Reynolds and and his wife, Blake Lively, have welcomed their first child.

    Page Six was the first to reveal that the 27-year-old actress gave birth to their child near their home in Bedford, New York just before the new year. Mother and child are said to be healthy and doing well.

    The sex of the baby is unknown, and the new parents planned to wait until the birth to find out for themselves the sex of their baby.

    In October, the 37-year-old actor declined to reveal many details about the baby, but he did joke around a bit about possible names.

    “On the plane over here I was trying to think of baby names. I don’t want a name that’s anything pretentious or, like, Hollywood-y,” he said. “So I’m going with Excalibur Anaconda Reynolds … that’s if it’s a girl.”

    Although he likes to joke around, Reynolds also expressed his excitement at becoming a father.

    “I’m just excited about having a buddy,” he told People. “For a lot of new dads, you tend to dwell on the mistakes you don’t want to make. I’m at that stage still where I’m focused primarily on being open and understanding and leaving a lot of room for error.”

    As for Lively, she said in October that pregnancy was a dream come true for her.

    “Its something that I’ve always wanted ever since I was a little girl…I knew I wanted to have a lot of kids because I had come from a big family so it was always important to me,” she told Us Weekly. “So it’s just the excitement of that finally being here.”

  • Kate Gosselin of ‘Kate Plus 8’ Reportedly Snags Herself a Millionaire, Jeff Prescott

    Kate Gosselin of Kate Plus 8 has reportedly snagged herself a millionaire.

    According to E! News, the 39-year-old reality star has been dating Jeff Prescott, CEO and co-founder of Dreamstime, a stock photo sourcing company.

    Prescott told the Nashville Business Journal in 2007 that Dreamstime — which Prescott said was like “an online American Idol television show for unsung photographers all over the globe” — was worth $25 million to $30 million at the time thanks to its in-house infrastructure, software, intellectual capital, etc.

    Prescott, 51, is a divorced father of three children, so all those kids — his three, plus her eight — must be having a grand ‘ole time together, as well.

    This new romance may come as a surprise to some, especially since Gosselin told Extra in June that she doesn’t have time to date.

    “Unless I meet them in Target or my kitchen, that’s the only place I’m going to meet someone,” she said.

    Gosselin, who divorced from ex-husband Jon Gosselin in 2009 after 10 years of marriage, is now a single parent on the TLC reality show that was renamed Kate Plus Eight after “Jon” was eliminated from her life and the title of the show.

    Gosselin, who is currently competing on NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice, also has appeared as a contestant on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars and as a guest co-host on The View.

  • Benji Madden Will Reportedly Marry Cameron Diaz Tonight

    Benji Madden will reportedly make fiancée Cameron Diaz his wife tonight, Monday, Jan. 5, according to Us Weekly.

    The website reports that Diaz, 42, and Madden, 35, hosted a rehearsal dinner with a few close family members and friends in attendance at the actress’ Beverly Hills home on Sunday.

    According to a source for Us, the meal began around 7:30 p.m and lasted for about three hours.

    Entertainment Tonight reports that Cameron’s close friend and Charlie’s Angels co-star Drew Barrymore — who will also serve as a bridesmaid at tonight’s not-so-secret-wedding — threw her friend a bridal shower at her Hollywood Hills home before the rehearsal dinner.

    ET also reports that Monday’s wedding at the Diaz’ home is expected to be an intimate affair, with only 50 guests attending.

    Tonight’s nuptials come after a 7-month whirlwind romance that began in May, after the two were introduced by Madden’s sister-in-law, Nicole Richie. It was very long until news of the actress’ engagement to the Good Charlotte singer broke on Dec. 19.

    “Everyone thinks it’s wild, but are so happy for them,” a source told Us at the time of their engagement. “Benji tends to fall in love easily, but this time it’s for real and he landed a great girl. They obviously both make each other incredibly happy, and there’s nothing better than that.”

  • Gia Giudice Demonstrates Incredible Resilience As Mom Teresa Giudice Enters Prison

    Gia Giudice is demonstrating incredible resilience after her mother, Teresa Giudice of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, entered prison early Monday morning.

    The 13-year-old’s mom began her 15-month sentence for bankruptcy fraud after turning herself in at the Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut shortly after 3 a.m. Monday.

    As for Gia, she is remaining positive and sharing her thoughts — as well as the support she is receiving from friends and fans via social media — on her Twitter page.

    The 3KT singer reportedly spent her last few hours with her mom on Sunday going to church with her family and celebrating her 14th birthday, which is on Jan. 8, a little early.

    “They had a birthday party for Gia,” a source told Us Weekly. “They had a cake and a celebration.”

    Joe Giudice will care for Gia, Gabriella, 10, Milania, eight, and Audriana, five, while Teresa completes her time behind bars. He will serve his own 41-month sentence once Teresa returns home.

    Even though it must be incredibly difficult for the Giudice kids to be without their mom and with the knowledge that their dad will have to leave them sometime next year, Gia is proving to be very brave and strong.

    “My family is probably one of the strongest families I know, so we’ll get through this,” Gia told Access Hollywood recently. “It’s gonna be fine. And when it’s over, we’re gonna be better than ever.”

  • Kristin Spodobalski Reportedly Remained by Boyfriend Stuart Scott’s Side Until the Very End

    Kristin Spodobalski, the girlfriend of the much-admired ESPN anchor Stuart Scott, who died of cancer Sunday morning at the age of 49, was reportedly by his side until the very end.

    ESPN reported Stuart’s death early Sunday, saying that Kristin, who had been dating the sports analyst for two years, “was with Stuart and cared for him every step of the way.”

    “ESPN and everyone in the sports world have lost a true friend and a uniquely inspirational figure in Stuart Scott,” said ESPN president John Skipper. “Who engages in mixed martial arts training in the midst of chemotherapy treatments? Who leaves a hospital procedure to return to the set? His energetic and unwavering devotion to his family and to his work while fighting the battle of his life left us in awe, and he leaves a void that can never be replaced.”

    Scott’s cancer was first diagnosed when his appendix was removed in 2007. It recurred four years later and again in 2013. He never revealed what kind of cancer he had.

    Along with Spodobalski, 26, Scott is survived by his parents, a brother and two sisters, ex-wife Kim Scott and daughters Taelor, 19, and Sydni, 15.

    “The best thing I have ever done, the best thing I will ever do, is be a dad to Taelor and Sydni,” he said in July at the 2014 ESPYS, where he was given the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance. “I can’t ever give up because I can’t leave my daughters.”

    “Taelor and Sydni, I love you guys more than I will ever be able to express,” he said. “You two are my heartbeat. I am standing on this stage here tonight because of you.”

    During his moving and inspiring speech at the ESPYS, Scott remarked that fighting cancer is never a solo undertaking.

    “When you get too tired to fight, lay down, get some rest and let someone else fight for you,” said Scott. “This whole ‘fight this journey’ thing is not a solo venture. This is something that requires support.”

    “I can’t do this ‘don’t give up’ thing by myself,” said Scott, explaining that he had just recently left the hospital where he had liver complications, kidney failure and underwent four operations in the span of seven days.

    “I couldn’t fight,” said Scott, as the emotion of the moment remembered rendered him momentarily speechless. “But my doctors and nurses could. The people that I love — my friends and family — they could fight. My girlfriend, who slept on a very uncomfortable hospital cot by my side, every single night, she could fight.”

    Spodobalski, an insurance professional who works for UnitedHealth Group, reportedly continued her vigil beside the man that she and so many others loved and was with him when he died, joining the throng of loved ones caring for him throughout his journey, just as he cared for millions in fighting the way he did.

    “When you die, it does not mean that you lose to cancer,” Scott told the audience in July. “You beat cancer by how you live, why you live, and in the manner in which you live.”

  • Oregon, Ohio to Change Its Name Temporarily to Support Ohio State Buckeyes’ Bid For National Championship

    Oregon, Ohio, a suburb of Toledo, is changing it’s name for a day to support the Ohio State Buckeyes football team in its bid to beat the Oregon Ducks for the college football national championship.

    On Jan. 12, the day the Bucks meet the Ducks for the College Football Playoff National Championship Presented by AT&T, the city will temporarily change its name, city administrator Michael Beazley told the Toledo Free Press. It has not been decided yet what the city’s temporary name will be, but Beazley said he and the mayor will issue a proclamation on Monday announcing the change.

    Matt Squibb and Mark Rabbitt, two residents of the city, organized a change.org petition calling for Oregon to change its name and for Oregon’s Clay High School to change its school colors from green and gold — the same as the Ducks — to Ohio State colors for the day, according to the Free Press.

    “I grew up in Oregon, Ohio and love the city, but for the day of the ‘Big Game’ I am asking the city council to make a proclamation to change the name of the city for one day,” reads the petition. “Call it Buckeye Town, Ohio City, Brutusville, whatever, you get the point. Let’s not leave anything to chance here! Change the name and support the Buckeyes!”

    Ohio State beat Alabama 42-35 on Thursday night to secure it’s place at the national championship game against Oregon, after they beat undefeated Florida State 59-20.

    Ironically, neither Squibb nor Rabbitt are Ohio State fans but each said it was a unique opportunity to support the university.

    “We’re just two guys going on a website and sparking something that most people would think is probably a really stupid thing, but to have so many people supporting it and then hopefully rooting for Ohio State to win it all is pretty great,” Rabbitt told the Free Press. “The Big Ten has been seen as a conference that can’t compete with the SEC or Pac 12. Now Ohio State has beaten the No. 1 team in the SEC and are facing the No. 1 team in the Pac-12, and we have this opportunity for Ohio State to win the national championship. I think it’s pretty good to see a community come together and support them.”

  • Kris Jenner Reportedly Dreading the Day Kim Kardashian and Family Moves Out

    Kris Jenner is reportedly dreading the day that her daughter, Kim Kardashian, moves out with her family, saying she’s going to be a “miserable wreck.”

    Kim Kardashian, 34, son-in-law Kanye West, 37, and granddaughter North West have been living with the 59-year-old matriarch in her Calabasas, California home for over a year now while their home was being renovated.

    According to Hollywood Life, the young family will soon be moving out, and Jenner is reportedly already bumming out at the thought of them leaving.

    “She’s going to miss the energy they all bring. She’s going to miss North and miss cooking breakfast for the three of them,” a source told the website. “But most of all, Kris knows she’s going to be one miserable wreck once they leave and she’s not looking forward to that.”

    The website claims that Jenner has a unique bond with Kim and enjoys the excitement and energy their crazy life brings to her home.

    “Kris is strangely attached to Kim. She’s living through her in some respect,” the insider said. “She sees herself in Kim, and being around her, Kanye and North makes her feel younger and more hip and gives her a sense of purpose. Kim is essentially Kris’ fountain of youth and even though they’re only moving minutes away, Kris doesn’t think it’s the same thing as having them in her home.”

  • ‘Teen Mom 2’ Stars Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra: So Much to Celebrate

    Teen Mom 2 stars Catelynn Lowell and Tyler Baltierra have so much to celebrate as 2015 gets underway.

    Of course, the biggest cause for celebration is the birth of their beautiful daughter, Nova Reign, born on New Year’s day and weighing in at 6 pounds, 12 ounces and measuring 19.5 inches.

    The proud parents couldn’t wait to share the good news on social media, but that works out just fine because their fans, who have been rooting for them, couldn’t wait to see the pics and share the good news.

    A week before Nova’s birth, Baltierra surprised Lowell with a special gift celebrating their love one more time. He offered his fiancé a new engagement ring, leaving her swooning.

    Yes, 2015 is a far cry from year’s past.

    The engaged couple decided to put their first child, daughter Carly, up for adoption in May 2009 and allowed America to witness the heart-wrenching process through MTV’s 16 and Pregnant.

    It was surely the right thing to do since they were just babes themselves at the time. But today is another day and tomorrow looks even brighter for the couple that has been through so much. It’s cause to celebrate second chances in life.

    You are already my world… I love you so much you have already changed me in so many ways… mommy and daddy love you

  • Bruce Jenner and Sons Reportedly in Talks For Own Reality Show — Move Aside Kardashians

    Bruce Jenner and his sons are reportedly in talks to star in their own reality show, which could give the Kardashians a run for their money.

    According to TMZ, the Olympic Gold medalist, who recently divorced from Kris Jenner, the matriarch of the Kardashian clan, is reportedly being pursued by multiple production companies to star in his own show that would likely provide some real competition to Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

    According to the website, the 65-year-old former step-father to Kourtney Kardashian, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, and Rob Kardashian, has not signed a deal yet, but is expected to be joined by his three sons, Burt, Brandon, and Brody Jenner on the possible TV show.

    Oh this could get good, especially if they do some cross-over episodes.

    Just trying to keep the who’s who in the families straight takes quite a bit of thought.

    Brody Jenner starred on MTV’s reality show The Hills and appeared on the reality show The Princes of Malibu with brother Brandon Jenner, both are of whom are Bruce’s sons from his second marriage to Linda Thompson. Burt Jenner and daughter Casey Jenner are his kids from his first marriage to Chrystie Crownover.

    Meanwhile, the Kardashian clan also includes Kourtney’s baby daddy Scott Disick, Kim’s husband Kanye West, and Kris’ daughters with Bruce, Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner.

    This could truly get complicated, but oh so good.

  • Alexis Bledel Joins Other ‘Gilmore Girls’ Family Members in Remembering Edward Hermann

    Alexis Bledel, 33, joins other members of the on-screen Gilmore family in remembering the late Edward Hermann, who played the patriarch in the popular Gilmore Girls series.

    Bledel, who played Rory Gilmore, the granddaughter of Hermann’s character, Richard Gilmore, for seven years on the show, released a statement to E! News in the wake of the actor’s death on New Year’s Eve.

    “Ed Herrmann was a wonderful actor and a kind man,” she said of the 71-year-old veteran actor. “He was endlessly knowledgeable about theater, TV and film, and would generously share his wisdom or tell stories from a long and rewarding career. I am grateful to him for that, and will miss him tremendously. He loved acting and was the head of our Gilmore family with his strong presence and great sense of humor. May he rest in peace.”

    A number of other Gilmore Girls co-stars have also expressed their grief and admiration for the actor.

    “My friend Ed Herrmann was the kindest, classiest, most talented man,” said Lauren Graham, who played daughter Lorelai Gilmore. “It was an honor and a joy to know him, a devastating blow to lose him.”

    “Besides being a consummate actor, he was kind and funny, fair and honest and always willing to join in the game,” said Kelly Bishop, who played Hermann’s onscreen wife, Emily Gilmore. “We shared a love of acting and of being working actors and I suspect he was secretly grateful for all the opportunity and success he enjoyed…and deserved. His brother told me Ed never stopped learning; he was always curious. When I think of my dear friend, a phrase comes to mind: ‘A hale fellow, well met.’ And I am so lucky to have met him.”

  • Gwyneth Paltrow Dishes on Life After Split From Chris Martin

    Gwyneth Paltrow, 42, recently opened up about her split with ex-husband, Chris Martin, and says their conscious uncoupling is going even better than expected.

    “We’ve worked really f—ing hard to get to [this] point. But we’re very, very close, and it’s so nice,” said Paltrow in an interview for Marie Claire‘s February issue. “I feel like it’s, in a way, the relationship we were meant to have.”

    Paltrow, whose latest film Mortdecai opens Jan. 23, shared a bit about their decision to split, saying there was “nothing dramatic” about the divorce.

    “I had built my life on trying to be all things to all people, and I just couldn’t do it anymore,” said the the mother of 10-year-old daughter Apple and eight-year-old son Moses.

    “I really had the sense that I wasn’t allowed to have needs, and I had to prove my specialness or self-worth by doing all this stuff and taking care of everybody else,” she told Marie Claire. “And I just sort of hit a wall.”

    As a newly single parent to two children, Paltrow told the magazine she’s doing her best to balance work and raising the kiddos.

    “I think we are all genuinely doing our best, it’s hard to have children and a career, and all some women seem to do is judge other women’s choices,” said the Oscar-winner. “I find that demoralizing and unhelpful. Where is the wisdom coming out of this situation?” she added. “I don’t see where this is getting us anywhere in terms of a cultural discussion.”

  • Donna Douglas Remembered by Last Surviving ‘Beverly Hillbillies’ Cast Member, Max Baer Jr.

    Donna Douglas, who played tomboy Elly May Clampett on the hit 1960s sitcom The Beverly Hillbillies, is remembered by the only living original cast member, Max Baer Jr., as being “Elly May until the day she died.”

    Baer Jr. played Elly May’s cousin, Jethro, in the series and says she always attended events dressed the part.

    “She was Elly May until the day she died,” Baer told the website RumorFix. “When I saw her for autograph signings or other gatherings, she always dressed the same with pink or blue and of course those signature pigtails.”

    Baer Jr. said he last saw his former costar in January 2013 at an autograph signing in Los Angeles and said he was unaware that she had been battling pancreatic cancer for the past several months.

    “But she was a very private person — nothing like me,” he said.

    Douglas died Thursday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, near her hometown of Zachary, at the age of 82. According to her neice, Charlene Smith, the cause of death was pancreatic cancer.

    Smith described her aunt as a “very good Christian lady. We all loved her,” she said. “Whenever she gave presents, they always came with (passages) from Scripture.”

    Hailing from Pride, Louisiana, Douglas was a former Miss Baton Rouge and Miss New Orleans. Married twice, she returned to her home state to be near her only child, son Danny Bourgeois, after her days in Hollywood came to an end.

    She is is also survived by three grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, one brother and other extended family members, Smith said.

    The series, which ran from 1962 to 1971, also starred the late Buddy Ebsen and Irene Ryan.

    “I’m the last man standing. All the actors, producers — everybody on the show is gone,” said Baer Jr.

  • ‘Duck Dynasty’ Star Sadie Robertson Unveils New Sherri Hill Fashion Collection

    Duck Dynasty star Sadie Robertson released the first look at her new fashion collection inspired by her book Live Original on Wednesday.

    The former Dancing with the Starscontestant teamed up designer Sherri Hill to create a line of dresses inspired by her book and shared a video of the Spring 2015 collection to her Instagram page.

    In the video — which features an original song, Miss Incredible, by her DWTS dance partner Mark Ballas — the 17-year-old struts her stuff in youthful dresses at Venice Beach in Los Angeles, California.

    Robertson has been modeling for a little over a year now, but she told RadarOnline that her experience with other models on the runway during New York Fashion Week was not the best of times.

    “Many of them did not say a word to me,” Robertson told the website. “They just looked at me like they had icicles in their eyes. They cared way too much about their outward appearance. Confidence is an inside thing. I could have totally lost it over the comments people made and the icy looks they gave me, but I didn’t. God has been training me my whole life … to be strong and confident.”

    The Sherri Hill collection is inspired from Robertson’s book Live Original: How the Duck Commander Teen Keeps It Real and Stays True to Her Values.

    Robertson said in an Instagram post at the time of the book’s release that she hoped the book would instill confidence in readers and help them to know God just a little better.

    The “little bit country” singer also revealed that she and her “little bit rock’n roll” brother, Donny Osmond — whose Emmy-nominated 1970s television show was a world-wide phenomenon — will be heading out on a world tour while their good friend, Olivia Newton-John, takes their place in Las Vegas.

    Osmond said it wasn’t that far-fetched that they would have fans in other countries.

    “Do you know what’s crazy about it?” Osmond said. “The Donny and Marie Show was dubbed into 17 languages. It was everywhere and I had no idea. I had no idea because I was a 14-year-old kid.”

  • Girl, 7, Miraculously Walks Away From Ky. Plane Crash That Killed Four Family Members

    A 7-year-old girl walked away from a small-plane crash Friday that killed four family members in southwest Kentucky, according to Kentucky State Police.

    The girl, who’s name is being withheld at the request of the family, walked nearly a mile to the home of a Lyon County resident to report the crash. The girl was taken to the hospital with nonlife-threatening injuries, according to Lex18.

    “This girl came out of the wreckage herself and found the closest residence and reported the plane crash,” said Sgt. Dean Patterson of the Kentucky State Police. “It’s a miracle in a sense that she survived it, but it’s tragic that four others didn’t.”

    The crash site was located a few hours later in a wooded area, along with the bodies of the girl’s family members among the wreckage, Patterson said.

    Lex18 reports that the girl’s parents, a 9-year-old sister and a 14-year-old cousin lost their lives in the crash.

    The victims — identified as 49-year-old Marty Gutzler; 45-year-old Kimberly Gutzler; their daughter, 9-year-old Piper Gutzler; and her cousin, 14-year-old Sierra Wilder — were from Nashville, Illinois. The name of the 7-year-old passenger is being withheld at the request of family.

    According to state police, the twin-engine Piper PA-34-200T lost contact with air traffic controllers in Memphis, Tennessee, around 6:30 p.m. CST as it was flying over Marshall County after the pilot reported engine problems.

    The plane reportedly took off from Key West, Florida, Friday and was headed to Mount Vernon, Illinois, authorities said.

    Investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation Administration are expected to arrive at the crash site Saturday.

  • Gigi Hadid Rings in the New Year With Cody Simpson and Pals in Dubai

    Gigi Hadid and boyfriend Cody Simpson rang in the new year in style with some of their pals in Dubai.

    Ryan Seacrest Comes to Taylor Swift’s Rescue on New Year’s Eve

    Ryan Seacrest apparently can be quite the gentleman when it comes to a damsel in distress — or a singer freezing her butt off, as the case may be.

    Anyone watching Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Year’s Eve with Ryan Seacrest Wednesday night was probably wondering why in the world Taylor Swift decided to don such a skimpy outfit during her appearance on stage at the Times Square New Year’s Eve celebration.

    In fact, the world gasped when she removed whatever protection she may have had from the cold — a lightweight, if-you-can-call-it-a-jacket — in the middle of her song.

    Although she managed to kill her set and didn’t appear in the least bit chilly while performing, the teeth-chattering singer began to question her wardrobe choice after her set.

    As the two were chatting, Swift remarked that she wasn’t a happy camper in her midriff-revealing tank top, slacks and silver jacket.

    “I’m freezing,” said the visibly trembling singer. “I really didn’t think this through.”

    Cue in her knight.

    Seacrest took off his jacket and wrapped it around the shoulders of the 25-year-old Shake It Off singer, who was beginning to turn various shades of blue in the cold.

    Ah, good job Ryan. Way to save the day.

  • Joseph Gordon-Levitt Secretly Tied the Knot With Girlfriend Tasha McCauley, Rep Confirms

    Joseph Gordon-Levitt has secretly tied the knot with girlfriend Tasha McCauley.

    People magazine broke the news late New Year’s Eve that the Dark Knight Rises actor married McCauley on Dec. 20 in a private ceremony at home.

    A rep for the actor later confirmed the union to the Los Angeles Times.

    Although the 33-year-old confessed in 2013 that he was in a relationship, he has kept any details about her or their relationship on the down-low.

    “I have a girlfriend but I tend not to really like to talk about it in public,” he admitted during a September 2013 appearance on The Howard Stern Show. “She is not in show business.”

    McCauley is cofounder and chief executive of the Silicon Valley-based robotics company Fellow Robots, according to People.

    “The girl that I’m with, she really doesn’t want to be a part of it and you can imagine not wanting to have that kind of scrutiny,” he added, refusing to provide any more details of their relationship or her identity.

    The Inception star did, however, give a few insights into his thoughts on marriage during the Howard Stern interview.

    “I think that I could partner up with somebody — I don’t know who that somebody is — I could partner up with a woman and commit to we’re going to raise a family and that’s a project we’re going to commit to for 20-something years,” he said.

    The actor-director said he was capable of fidelity in the early years of a marriage, but conceded that things might change after the kids are grown.

    “I like to not be too committed to any one future that’s really far away, necessarily, unless there’s a reason, which is why I’m saying if you’re gonna raise a family … I can make that commitment.”

  • Sonni Pacheco: Lingerie Model Back on the Market After Filing For Divorce From Jeremy Renner

    Sonny Pacheco is back on the market after filing for divorce from Avengers star Jeremy Renner after just 10 months of marriage.

    According to TMZ, Pacheco, 23, filed for divorce earlier this month citing irreconcilable differences in her court documents. She also reportedly mentioned a prenup but said it should be disregarded because it was based on “fraud.”

    Pacheco and 43-year-old Renner — who met on the set of Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, where Pacheco had a role as a stand-in — have a 21-month-old daughter, Ava Berlin Renner. TMZ claims that Pacheco is requesting spousal support and physical custody of Ava.

    The website further claims that she wants Renner to pay her rent and moving expenses, and has asked that he return her passport, birth certificate and social security card.

    The Canadian model and actress, who is 20 years younger than her soon-to-be ex, works as a lingerie model and was a spokeswoman for Monster Energy Drinks. She also had a role in the 2009 direct-to-DVD movie American Pie Presents: The Book Of Love.

    The couple have struggled in the relationship from the get-go. Before they welcomed their daughter, the couple split, according to Daily Mail. After their daughter was born, Pacheco moved in with Renner and they eventually married.
