  • Bryan Adams And Justin Bieber Remake ‘Baby’ In Unlikely Duet

    Justin Bieber’s hit “Baby” is one of his major hits but it is also one of the most disliked video on Youtube, with 5 million dislikes from viewers.

    However, it is still the song that marks Bieber’s beginnings as a music superstar.

    But will listeners still respond negatively to new version featuring Bryan Adams?

    Bryan Adams and Justin Bieber performed a surprise duet of  “Baby” at the Universal Inside 2015 conference in Berlin on September 15. It was like a combination of two genres.

    Unlike Bieber’s version with rapper Ludacris, his acoustic version with Adams is a slower, raw version of the song. It’s not the sweet, young version anymore but a more matured ballad that is far from the versions Bieber did in his past performances.

    Bieber had a lot of hits already, and he also did other renditions of his other hits, but this is the first time he made an acoustic rendition of “Baby” and with Adams joining him, it’s indeed a special one and nothing like any other renditions we’ve heard before.

    Bieber also has an acoustic version of “What Do You Mean” that his fans will get to hear once its original version is streamed enough on Spotify.

    Bryan Adams will be releasing his new album called Get Up this October, and Justin Bieber will also have his upcoming album this November. Both Adams and Bieber were there to promote their music at the conference.

    Could Adams and Bieber do an album or hit together?

  • Danity Kane Says Diddy Took Their Money And Left Them With Debt

    Fame often comes with money, especially if you were a part of a group who had platinum albums and went on tours like Danity Kane.

    But according to former members of Danity Kane, Aubrey O’Day, 31, and Shannon Bex, 35, all their fame got them was debt instead their hard earned money. There were also rumors that the group broke up because of money issues.

    “It wasn’t even money because we never make any,” Aubrey O’Day said in their interview with The Breakfast Club. “We have two platinum albums, let alone grossed over a million dollars on Christina Aguilera’s Back to Basics tour,” O’Day adds. “We came off the tour $15,000 in debt and grossed millions.” While Shannon Bex said, “We were signed to Diddy, that’s all I’m gonna say.” Danity Kane was previously working with the rapper and business mogul, Sean “Diddy” Combs, and apparently he left the group, taking with him with their earnings. Not only that, Diddy reportedly left the group with debts instead.

    “Thanks Diddy,” Bex said as a message to the rapper.

    And when asked if Danity Kane members will have their reunion, O’Day said that the group “is so dead and over.”

    O’Day said, “Let’s move on.”

    And as a sign that the former Danity Kane members have already moved on, they announced their new album coming this March. O’Day and Bex are now part of the duo Dumblonde, but they also learned their lesson, instead of going to major labels, they are now working independently.

    Well, we can’t blame them, it’s hard not getting what you worked hard for, hopefully this time, it will turn out for the best.

    Danity Kane was an all-girl R&B group formed during MTV’s Making the Band in 2005 and were signed to Bad Boy Records but they broke up in August 2014.

  • Jessica Biel Releases Sex-Ed Videos, Actress Was Clueless About Her Body When She First Got Pregnant

    A lot of us, even the stars, have gone through times when we ask ourselves what’s happening to my body. One of these stars is actress Jessica Biel.

    When she was trying to have a baby with husband Justin Timberlake, Biel said she was confused about what was going to happen and admitted she didn’t know what to do.

    “I’ve been on the Pill for so long; how hard will it be to get pregnant?”

    “Suddenly I realized I really didn’t know what’s going on inside my own body,” Biel told Glamour. The feeling of not knowing what’s happening was a shocking experience for Biel.

    Now, the actress has partnered with WomanCare Global founder, Saundra Pelletier to release a series of videos on sex education about menstruation and contraception.

    These videos will help women and girls to understand what their bodies are going through during puberty, when they use contraceptives, have sex, and when they are pregnant.

    “We want girls to know what their body is going through so they don’t feel scared or ashamed or gross,” Biel said.

    Most young women nowadays are not comfortable talking about these kinds of topics but Biel believes that giving women the right information with the right venue will let them know what to do with their bodies and encourage them to share what they learn from the videos with others..

    Jessica Biel shared her experience when she first got her period in elementary school, an embarrassing moment that included a pad “the size of a skateboard.”

    “More than half of our nation’s pregnancies are unplanned, and just 22 states require public schools to teach sex education,” Saundra Pelletier said. “Jessica and I realized we can help change this.”

    Jessica Biel is not the first celebrity to release sex-ed videos, celebrity mom Gwyneth Paltrow also has Goop and Blake Lively has Preserve.

  • Stevie Wonder Sings To James Corden’s Wife, ‘Late Late Show’ Host Reduced To Tears

    Having someone unexpectedly sing to your loved one would be a nice surprise, but it may be a life changing experience if the legendary Stevie Wonder sang for him or her.

    Lucky James Corden had that experience in a recent episode of The Late Late Show‘s Carpool Karaoke and it reduced him to tears.

    Aside from getting the chance to do a duet with Stevie Wonder for his songs, ”Very Superstitious,” “Isn’t She Lovely and “Signed, Sealed, Delivered,” Corden also got the chance to surprise his wife with a personal song from Stevie Wonder.

    Corden called his wife of three years, Julia, and asked Stevie Wonder to sing to her.

    After talking for a while, Stevie Wonder surprised them both when he belted out “I Just Called to Say I Love You,” changing the lyrics to “I just called to say James loves you. I just called to say how much he cares.”

    While Julia was silent on the other line, Corden was obviously overwhelmed and wiped away tears from his eyes after Stevie Wonder ended the song with “and he promised me he’ll let me be on his show for an hour.”

    Stevie Wonder also showed him his harmonica skills in the show and even suggested they start a group called The Wondercats after they belted out his songs together.

    The episode started out funny, when Corden gets into the passenger seat of the car and asks ‘Are you sure you’re OK to drive?’ and the camera pans to Stevie Wonder behind the wheel.

    Stevie Wonder also showed his funny side when he mocked Corden by doing a bad impression of the TV host’s British accent.

    And though Corden already had the likes of Mariah Carey and Rod Stewart on the show, this episode with Stevie Wonder is probably the best in Corden’s Carpool Karaoke series.

  • Ashley Graham Proves Fat Girls Rock, Model Takes Over New York Fashion Week

    When we talk about supermodels, fashion and runways, we often think about women who are size 1 or even 0, skinny and sexy.

    Well, we might need to rethink that!

    Ashley Graham defied the traditional supermodel standards when she walked the runway on Tuesday for her latest lingerie line for Canadian brand Addition Elle at New York Fashion Week.

    Graham is a size 16 and curvy. She flaunted her assets as she strutted, wearing a cut-out bra and printed sheer panties under a kimono.

    The fashion show was also used to encourage women to embrace the body that they are in. During the show Graham encouraged everyone to use hashtag #IAmSizeSexy to promote positive body image and diversity.

    Graham previously posed for Sports Illustrated‘s 2015 swimsuit as one of their first plus-size models. She also modeled in a campaign called #PlusIsEqual with Lane Bryant.

    “Everyone deserves to see themselves being represented equally. #PlusIsEqual is showing that curvy women are accepted, they’re represented and being made a priority in the fashion industry,” Ashley told the Huffington Post. “We definitely still have more progress to make, but campaigns like this and #IAmSizeSexy are raising awareness for body diversity and continuing these great conversations.”

    Graham proved that being sexy and beautiful doesn’t mean you have to be skinny, it’s embracing your body and being positive about it.

  • Cindy Lauper And ‘Kinky Boots’ Cast And Crew Had Audience Jumping To Their Feet

    Musical Broadway show, Kinky Boots, had a great start with their opening night as the audience jumped to their feet at the curtain call.

    Kinky Boots has irresistibly endearing characters, crazy couture, a mix of emotional ballads and over-the-top ensemble numbers, and the kind of energy that had the audience dancing in their seats.

    Cyndi Lauper, the lyricist of the show together with director Jerry Mitchell and writer Harvey Fierstein, joined the cast and producers for the curtain call on stage. All of them received bouquets of flowers and the loudest cheers coming from their audience.

    Lauper went for a punkish retro look with her off-shoulder red dress, paired with black leather stilletos and fingerless gloves as she entered the red carpet for the show.

    And though her shoes were killing her, Lauper said that the musical show was great and incredible. “This show has huge heart,” Lauper said. “It’s a story about love and acceptance and friendship and overcoming obstacles.” Lauper also danced with Matt Henry, who plays a drag queen named Lola, as the show’s finale song, “Raise You Up,” played on. The cast were delighted and overwhelmed with the audience response to their show. In true Kinky Boots form, the curtains went down to the show’s resident drag queens twerking for the roaring crowd. Kinky Boots was adapted by writer, Harvey Fierstein, from a British comedy show with the same title. It was shown on Broadway in 2013. And with its music and lyrics by Lauper, Kinky Boots won the 2013 Tony Award for Best Musical and broke all box office records at New York’s Al Hirschfeld Theatre.

    The successful opening night of Kinky Boots marks the end of the previews for three weeks and will be the start of eight shows a week at the Adelphi Theatre in London’s West End.

  • Unruly Passenger Starts A Fight On American Airlines Flight 1284, Troublemaker Identified

    An American Airlines flight from Miami to Chicago made an emergency landing in Indianapolis on Monday after an unruly passenger hit two officers on the plane, reports said.

    Daniela Velez-Reyes, 25, has been identified by the police as the unruly passenger who caused commotion in American Airlines Flight 1284, Monday evening. She has been detained at the Marion County Jail in Indianapolis. The woman is charged with battery resulting in physical injury, battery without injury, criminal recklessness, disorderly conduct, battery of a public safety officer, and disrupting the operation of an aircraft.

    Based on the online flight log, the incident occurred at around 5:30 pm EST. According to one passenger, Velez-Reyes exhibited weird behavior.

    “She was disoriented through the entire flight, not being able to find her seat, walking back and forth,” said fellow passenger Marian Frendt, “And when she came to the back, she was sweating profusely.”

    The woman kicked the seat of the passenger in front of her but when the man turned to ask her, she hit him.

    A flight attendant came to settle the commotion but Velez-Reyes, according to a witness, “grabbed the flight attendant by the face and kissed her, then punched her in the face.”

    The pilot decided to make an emergency landing in Indianapolis at around 5:45 p.m. according to Jeff Dutton, Indianapolis International Airport communications manager. The unruly passenger kicked the police officer who escorted her off the plane.

    The victims were a 52-year-old man and a 32-year-old woman. Reports said they suffered minor injuries.

    The flight interruption caused the passengers to arrive in Chicago 90 minutes late.

    It is still not clear whether the U.S. Department of Justice will make federal charges against the unruly passenger, according to ABC News.

  • Gwyneth Paltrow And Jennifer Garner: Ben Affleck’s Exes Meet At Convention

    Gwyneth Paltrow was seen recently at an education event Think it Up in Sta. Monica, California. Paltrow looked young in her simple outfit. She wore a navy blue T-shirt with the logo of Think it Up paired with a black skater skirt and black ankle boots.

    The Think it Up initiative seeks to improve education in America by motivating students in public schools to turn their passions into worthwhile projects. The event gained support from other Holywood celebrities like Seth Meyers, Terry Crews, Justin Bieber, Halle Berry, Jessica Biel, Kacey Musgraves, Julie Chenand, Taylor Lautner and Jennifer Garner.

    Garner caught up with Paltrow, and the two smiled together as they posed for the cameras. Both leading ladies are exes of Ben Affleck but there was no awkward moment between them. Paltrow dated Affleck back in 1997 after she broke up with Brad Pitt. Their relationship lasted three years. According to Paltrow, her parents knew that she and Affleck were not suited for each other.

    “I think they appreciated how he’s super intelligent and he’s really talented and funny,” the actress said, remembering her parents’ fondness over Affleck. “They loved him, but they were okay with us not being together,” she added.

    Paltrow and her husband, Chris Martin separated in March. They have two children: Apple who is now 9 years old and son Moses, 8.

    Recently, Garner and her three children joined Affleck at Disney World for the actor’s birthday on August 16.

    “This was all he wanted to do for his birthday, go to Disney World with his family and that included Jen,” a reliable source told Us Weekly, referring to the last time Garner and Affleck were seen together.

    “They planned this and all went to Orlando together,” the source added.

    Westfeldt and Hamm had been together for 18 years but on September 7, the couple announced their decision to end their relationship.

    In a statement, the couple expressed their sadness over their separation: “With great sadness, we have decided to separate, after 18 years of love and shared history.” Although they are separating, Westfeldt and Hamm said they would be “supportive of each other in every way possible moving forward.”

    Months before their separation, 44-year-old Hamm expressed his gratitude toward his girlfriend for helping him when he went to rehab for alcohol abuse.

    According to the actor’s representative, Hamm completed treatment for alcohol abuse with the steadfast support of his girlfriend, Westfeldt.

    The ex-couple had tried to work out their issues in their relationship but an insider told Us that they did not share the same vision for their family. The source close to the actress revealed Hamm wanted kids but Westfeldt did not.

    The couple met at the party of a friend and started dating in 1997 but they never married.

  • Jeb Bush Says ‘I Apologize’ To Donald Trump For Campaigning In Spanish

    Jeb Bush has released a campaign video in observance of Hispanic Heritage Month. The video, “Todos Somos Americanos” or “We are all Americans,” features Bush speaking in Spanish and his Mexican-American wife, Columba Bush, speaking in English.

    Jeb says in Spanish: “The United States of America is a great country. Thanks to the people that come from all over the world, contributing to our economy and community. To me, Hispanic culture is very important and positive.”

    He also said he is proud that his children and grandchildren are Hispanic. Columba, who is rarely seen in Jeb’s campaign activities said in English: “I have lived over half my life here. We all have the same interests, the same feelings.”

    Jeb’s campaign advisers are positive that his family’s ties with the Latino community will contribute a lot to his campaign.

    Jeb highlights the importance of Hispanics in nation building and that they are part of the “American dream.” He then urged the people to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, a month-long celebration which marks the independence days of many Central American and South American countries.

    The video is released despite rival, Donald Trump’s remarks on Jeb’s inclination to speak Spanish in his speeches, when addressing Spanish-language media and when answering questions from the Latino community.

    Trump previously said Jeb should speak English while in the U.S. which Jeb finds disrespectful.

    The former Florida governor, has a sarcastic response to Trump’s criticisms: “I’m going to campaign in the Latino communities and yes, Mr. Trump if I’m asked a question in Spanish, I might answer in Spanish,” Jeb said, then adds “I apologize.”

    Jeb and Trump will face each other again on stage at the CNN Republican presidential debate that will be held on Wednesday at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.

  • Duggar Family Celebrates Mom Michelle’s 49th Birthday [Videos]

    This year has been tough for the Duggar family but despite all the controversies, the whole gang of 19 Kids and Counting united to celebrate their mother’s birthday on Sunday, September 13.

    Michelle Duggar celebrated her 49th birthday with a series of videos of her children wishing her a happy birthday. The videos were compiled in the official website of the Duggar family.

    Soon-to-be-mom, Jessa Duggar Seewald, in one video said: “As Ben and I are looking forward to being parents in the next couple months I just think that there are are so many things that I learned from you that I’m really looking forward to implementing in my own home.”

    Jessa named patience and her mom’s faith as the traits she likes about her mom. She said Michelle is very patient with the kids and very calm when she deals with them. At times of trouble, Jessa said her mother directed them to Jesus.

    Joy-anna joined her sister Jana in another video and thanked their mother for being their role model. Jana, 25, hoped to be like her mom in the future and called Michelle her “hero.”

    Michelle’s 19-year-old son Josiah thanked his mom for believing in him. The teener said: “I really do look up to you, and I can’t imagine having a different mom.”

    The Dillard family- Jill, Derick and 5-month-old Israel- also greeted Michelle on her birthday. Derick told Michelle via video that he was “so blessed to have the best mother-in-law in the world.”

    The Duggar patriarch, Jim Bob, had also shared his message for his wife of 31 years. In his video he called Michelle a “godly mother” a “wonderful wife” and a “virtuous woman.”

    Eldest son Josh Duggar was absent as he is now seeking treatment at the Reformers Unanimous Center in Rockford, Ill.

  • Kim Cattrall Says She’s A ‘Mother,’ Actress Is ‘Childless’

    Kim Cattrall shares her insights on subjects important to women who are in their late 50’s as a guest editor on Woman’s Hour Takeover specials on BBC Radio 4. Cattrall talks about ageing, being “childless” and the choices she made in her life like being single in her older years.

    The 59-year-old actress, who is well known for her role as Samantha Jones in Sex and the City, opened up about her marriage life. She has been married three times and learned valuable lessons from it. Now that she lives without a partner or children, she admits that single life is rather hard for women her age. However, she added, “I feel in that area, romantically, retired.”

    As for not having children, Cattrall sees the word “childless” as offensive.

    “It’s the less that is offensive – childless – it sounds like you’re less because you haven’t had a child,” Cattrall observed.

    She does not like the idea of becoming a “science experiment” in order to have children and then came to a point where she evaluated herself if she really wanted it now.

    Although she has not had children of her own, she still considers herself a mother. “I am not a biological parent, but I am a parent,” she said, calling her nieces, nephews and the young actors she teaches her children.

    She added that a woman can be a mother and express her maternal side in many ways. Cattrall says she helped her niece get through medical school and even provided emotional and moral support for her nephew who joined the army. “I feel I am a mother of sorts,” she said.

    Cattrall believes that having few or no children is a positive choice that can help solve the issue of overpopulation which is one of the root causes of many social and environmental problems.

Well, nobody seems to have an answer for that! Lohan seemed to be recalling the September 11 terrorist attack mixed with recalling her only private friend, Michael Jackson, then asking Allah for forgiveness. “they always come back. I love you NYC #godblesstheworld #michaeljackson #rip miss you as my real only private friend. For you: god, for all hurts and wrongs, please let me forgive, Allah please let me be forgiven, and all forgive themselves. Please and thank you.

  • Ivana Trump Said She Was ‘Raped’ By Donald Trump, Believes He Will Make A Great President

    Ivana Trump thinks her ex-husband Donald Trump will be the next U. S. president. Ivana was having dinner with designer Domenico Vacca at Le Bilboquet when she made the statement.

    In a separate occasion, Ivana said Donald would make “an incredible president.” This was after she defended her ex-husband against an old report that resurfaced recently. The report which was posted to the The Daily Beast on Monday night, recounts the rape complaint Ivana filed during their divorce.

    Ivana, now 66 years old, refuted the old story saying it was “totally without merit.”

    “Donald and I are the best of friends and together have raised three children that we love and are very proud of,” Ivana said of Donald as she remembers him as a good father to her children.

    She also thinks Donald will make a good president: “I have nothing but fondness for Donald and wish him the best of luck on his campaign. Incidentally, I think he would make an incredible president.”

    The rape claim was included in the book Lost Tycoon, published in 1993. Soon after its publication, Ivana issued a statement saying she used the word to express that she “felt violated” and that she was never raped by her husband.

    She felt violated because “the love and tenderness which he normally exhibited towards me was absent.” Ivana said she referred to this treatment as “rape” but added, “…but I do not want my words to be interpreted in a literal or criminal sense.”

    Despite the attacks that he hates immigrants, Donald was married to a non-U.S. citizen. Ivana, was born in Czechoslovakia and became a U.S. citizen in 1988. She has three children with Donald: Donald John, Ivanka Marie and Eric Fredrick.

  • Candice Swanepoel Takes A Nasty Fall On Runway At New York Fashion Week

    Victoria’s Secret model Candice Swanepoel is back with a smile after she slipped on the runway during a fashion show on Friday.

    She was spotted with her friends at the Rose Bar at Gramercy Park Hotel, Saturday evening. Swanepoel was very elegant in her white dress as she and Brazilian model Lais Ribeiro posed for the cameras. She looked like she has fully recovered after the incident.

    Swanepoel slipped and fell down on the runway at the Givenchy show at New York Fashion Week. It turned out that the model’s pointed high heels were the reason why she lost her footing. The viewers were quick to help the model stand up after her fall. She did not mind the embarrassing accident and managed to walk away with composure.

    The supermodel stood up and just smiled as if nothing happened. She was a perfect example of how professional models like her handle awkward situations. Her graceful exit earned her praises from the social media. Social media users were able to relate to her.

    “Left with little scratches but mostly a bruised ego,” she wrote sharing a photo of her wounded knees on her Instagram account. She also expressed her gratitude toward the people who assisted her during the event.

     

    Thank you to who ever picked me up off the runway tonight. ??left with little scratches but mostly a bruised ego ?☺️? #ohwell

    Just minutes after she slipped, another model fell down the runway. The viewers helped the woman get back on her feet and like Swanepoel, she did not suffer any serious injuries.

    The 26-year-old Victoria’s Secret model is one of the highest-paid models in the world. In fact, in a 2013 report released by Forbe’s magazine, Swanepoel took the number nine spot on the list, with $3.3 million. She was also hailed most beautiful woman in 2014 according to Maxim‘s Hot 100 list.

  • Fox Lake Shooting Investigation Threatened By Rogue Retired Cop

    Retired police officer, Joseph Battaglia, was arrested after allegedly threatening to harm those who are involved in the death investigation of Fox Lake Police Lt. Joseph Gliniewicz, unless they declared his death as suicide.

    Battaglia blocked his number and called Lake County Coroner Thomas Rudd’s office Friday threatening to harm him, as well as Lake County Major Crime Task Force Cmdr. George Filenko, and all other officers in the Fox Lake Shooting investigation. Officials confirmed that Battaglia was a former Chicago police officer but was not involved in the Fox Lake Shooting investigation. Battaglia also called police agencies and some media outfits. After his call, an investigation took place and he was arrested over the weekend at his home in Oak Lawn, Illinois, on two counts of disorderly conduct, Class 4 felonies.

    “We will not tolerate any behavior which disrupts our investigative efforts,” Lake County Undersheriff Raymond Rose said. “Any intentional criminal acts to distract or impair our investigation will be actively investigated and turned over to the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office for prosecution.”

    As of now, Battaglia doesn’t have any lawyer, he was denied one because of his police pension and is now being held at the Lake County Jail on a $100,000 bond. The Fox Lake shooting happened on September 1 when Gliniewicz was shot dead shortly after he radioed that he was chasing three men, around 8:00 am in the 100 block of Honing Road in Fox Lake.

    After Battaglia’s arrest, Rudd was publicly chastised for sharing information on the Fox Lake shooting. Rudd said Gliniewicz died from a single, devastating gunshot wound, but has not provided details on where he was shot or whether he was shot more than once.

  • Britney Spears Moves On To The Next, Reportedly Dating Lindsay Lohan’s Ex

    Britney Spears has so much to be thankful for this year. After her extension of residence in Las Vegas, it seems that the pop star has found a new love.

    Reports say Spears had dinner with restaurant entrepreneur Harry Morton, in California on September 11. An insider spilled to Us Weekly that the two were on a date. The pictures obtained by TMZ shows Spears enjoying a chat with her date at Iroha Sushi. It has been confirmed that it was their first date together.

    Morton is the CEO of Pink Taco and a co-owner of the Viper Room. He is also the grandson of Arnie Morton, founder of Morton Steakhouse.

    The “Piece of Me” hitmaker has not been romantically linked to anyone after she ended her relationship with Charlie Ebersol, her boyfriend of eight months. Us Weekly confirmed they broke up in June. A reliable source said the couple’s relationship failed because Ebersol “was in it for the wrong reasons.”

    The pop singer’s love life is an open book. She had dated David Lucado before Ebersol. She was engaged to Jason Trawick from 2011 to 2013 but their relationship did not work out. Spears was also married to her friend Jason Alexander back in 2004. She and backup dancer, Federline married in 2004 and had two sons but broke up in 2007.

    Recently, Spears has been spending quality time with her sons: 9-year-old Sean Preston and 8-year-old Jayden James.

    Morton has been linked to other high-profile women in the past. He was linked to Lindsay Lohan in 2006. Their relationship ended on a bad note and he claimed Lohan flooded his condo out of spite. He also dated Demi Moore, Hayden Panettiere and Jennifer Aniston.

    Morton and Spears have not confirmed or denied the reports regarding their relationship.

    Empire fans waiting for Season 2, you won’t just watch out for the comeback of Taraji P. Henson as Cookie Lyon, you will also be watching out for her oldest sister.

    And yes, even Taraji P. Henson is very excited to work with her. It’s no other than Vivica A. Fox!

    Vivica A. Fox will be playing Henson’s older sister in the show for one episode. Ilene Chaiken, one of the show’s executive producers, said that Fox’s addition to the storyline will add more drama to the plot.

    “Cookie’s other family members are troublesome, to say the least,” Chaiken said.

    Lee Daniels, Empire’s co-creator, said that there is a possibility that this season will focus on Cookie Lyon’s family in order to set up that spin-off for success.

    Though they did not reveal yet in what episode Fox will show up, Henson expressed her excitement to work with her.

    “I’m very excited about that,” Taraji P. Henson said. “I mean, I watched Vivica before I even got into the business. And she’s always been one that I’ve looked up to, like, ‘God, I want to be able to do what she does.’ So, to be able to work with the person who you’ve admired for so long, it’s just mind-blowing.”

    Henson also commented on her nomination for Primetime Emmys Lead Actress in a Drama for this year’s ceremony, Henson said she’s amazed but “it’s sort of bittersweet.”

    “Because here we are in 2015, and we’re still saying things like, ‘First African-American,’ ‘First woman this,’” Henson commented.

    “I just pray to God … and it’s not even about me. I hope Viola wins. I hope I win,” Henson continued. “Just so we can get past this and we don’t have to say in 2020 or 2030 or 3000, ‘The first’ I mean, come on, really,” Henson said, laughing.

    Empire Season 2 premieres September 23.

  • Elizabeth Hurley Reunites With Ex-Boyfriend Hugh Grant, Calls Him ‘Grumpelstiltskin’

    Elizabeth Hurley and former boyfriend Hugh Grant were spotted having a chat while walking on the street near their homes.

    Hurley was seen wearing a grey sweater and jeans and a pair of fur-lined boots while chatting with 55-year-old Grant who wore white shorts and sneakers.

    At first, they looked like they were having casual banter but the mood changed when a passerby walked past them.

    While on their way, the pair met a gorgeous shorts-clad woman who caught Grant’s attention while the actress just smiled at the lady. The actor’s gaze followed the leggy woman and Hurley watched as her ex-boyfriend stared at the gorgeous passerby. Hurley seemed to scorn Grant and said something funny as she stepped up on the pavement. They exchanged a few more words before they parted.

    The famous ex-couple dated for 13 years back in the 90s. The two have remained good friends even after they ended their relationship in 2000. That explains why she can poke fun at Grant who was obviously checking out the passerby. In an appearance on Watch What Happens Live earlier this year, Hurley revealed the side of Grant people did not know: “I love him, but he’s very annoying.” Proving that she is a true friend of Grant’s, Hurley said that at the time they were dating, her friends found Grant grumpy. “My friends used to call him Grumpelstiltskin. He is grumpy,” the actress opened up. Still, despite all the things that happened between them, the actress considers Grant her best friend. She even made him godfather to his 13-year-old son, Damian.

    Rarely do people see couples who become super friendly when they ended their relationships. Hurley and Grant’s friendly relationship is one good example.

  • Jessica Biel Re-Emerges After Giving Birth, Hangs With Jennifer Garner

    Parenthood will change every one of us, especially stars who just recently entered that phase in their life. They either update us every day about their new bundle of joy, or they keep it to themselves like Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake.

    Jessica, 33, and Justin, 34, have been keeping a low profile since Jessica gave birth to their son, Silas, last April. But Jessica made a public appearance last Friday night at the fundraising telecast for Think It Up, a new educational initiative set up by the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF), at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif. Jessica was pictured with her close friend since 2010, Jennifer Garner at the event.

    Jessica and Jennifer are both supporting EIF for its cause to support the nation’s students, teachers and schools. The two are helping to generate excitement about learning everywhere in America and building a sense of optimism about the changes underway in classrooms across the country.

    Meanwhile, Justin Timberlake also had his share of showing how amazing it is to be a dad after Jessica shared previously her magical experience as a mother. Justin brought photos of their son, Silas, to his appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and shared it on social media. “It is the most insanely, amazing, most beautiful, unbelievable thing that could ever happen to you,” Justin said proudly, adding his first son’s word was “da-da.” According to Justin’s friend, Lance Bass, he saw the changes Justin had after Jessica gave birth to Silas.

    “It’s been five months and it’s so amazing to see a friend go through this, because you know, I grew up with him since he was 14 years old,” Lance said. “But to see this amazing dad now…all he wants to talk about is the kid.”

    Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake kept their parenthood experience private and shared just two photos of Silas since birth.
