  • Olivia Munn and Stephen Colbert Have Fun with Her Engagement Rumors

    Olivia Munn is not engaged to longtime boyfriend and Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, according to Munn herself. But that hasn’t stopped the internet rumor mill from turning.

    Earlier this week, tabloid reports said that Munn and Rodgers had gotten engaged over the holidays.

    Munn publicly denied the rumors, posting this hilarious text conversation with her mother on Instagram:

    But Stephen Colbert wasn’t done confusing Munn’s mother. Munn appeared on The Late Show this week, and Colbert decided to have some fun.

    Colbert asked is he could text Munn’s mother, and she obliged.

    “Kim, Colberto here. So happy for the engagement!” he texted.

    Munn later posted her mom’s response:

    Once again, Olivia Munn is not engaged. Watch her say it herself:

  • Olivia Munn Shoots Down Engagement Reports with Funny Text from Mom

    Olivia Munn has finally responded to all the rumors that say she got engaged to Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers over the holidays.

    And she’s done so in hilarious fashion.

    It looks like some of those rumors made their way to Munn’s mom, who texted the actress to find out why she wasn’t the first to know.

    “Hey why don’t you tell me first,” Munn’s mom apparently texted her.

    “Oh my gosh Mom no. You shouldn’t beleive gossip on the internet. If I was engaged, I promised you’d be like the 8th person to know. Maybe 9th. But definitely way before the internet,” Munn replied.

    Munn shared the text conversation on Instagram:

    So, there it is.

    A recent tabloid report said that Rodgers proposed during a romantic dinner sometime around the holidays.

  • Olivia Munn, Aaron Rodgers Reportedly Got Engaged Over the Holidays

    Are Olivia Munn and Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers engaged?

    That’s the word from one tabloid, which claims the couple got engaged over the holidays.

    According to OK Magazine, “Olivia wasn’t expecting it, but they’re so in love he just couldn’t wait.” Apparently, Rodgers proposed during a romantic dinner.

    The couple has been dating since 2014.

    There’s been no confirmation of this on Olivia Munn’s social media accounts, where she’s pretty active.

    Munn and Rodgers’ relationship has been the subject of some trumped-up controversy. During a mid-season slump, some Packers fans and a few sports writers suggested that Munn could be to blame for Rodgers’ string of less-than-stellar performances on the field.

    Munn was having none of that nonsense, and hit back at those suggestions.

    So, if Munn is now planning a wedding she’ll be splitting time between that and a new CW show she’s developing. She’s producing and co-writing a show about a female sportscaster in the 1970s.

  • Olivia Munn and Aaron Rodgers: Avid “Star Wars” Fans Dress the Part–But Who is the Bigger Fan?

    Olivia Munn and Aaron Rodgers are avid Star Wars fans, and they recently dressed the part in a photo posted on social media.

    There is definitely some competition between the actress and the Green Bay Packers quarterback, as Olivia Munn wants to know which one of them appears to be the bigger fan.

    “Who’s the bigger #StarWars fan…The one who bought this awesome shirt at @oldnavy or the one who already owned his own Obi-Wan Kenobi robe? ?” she captioned the post.

    A little friendly competition is good in every relationship. How do you suppose Olivia Munn planned to determine which of them really is the bigger fan? Would she rely on comments? Might she take a count of how many chose her as opposed to Aaron?

    Olivia Munn and Aaron Rodgers are no doubt counting the days until Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits theaters. They are down to less than a week.

    Do you expect Rodgers might take some ribbing from teammates about his penchant for portraying Obi-Wan Kenobi? Has Olivia Munn outed him against his wishes?

    There’s no question as to where Olivia Munn and Aaron Rodgers will be on Thursday night. Will they wear their Star Wars gear to the film? There are sure to be other fans in similarly supportive attire.

  • Olivia Munn, Beau Aaron Rodgers Gear Up — Literally — For ‘Star Wars’

    The force is apparently with Olivia Munn and her beau, Green Bay Paker’s quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

    With less than a week before the much-anticipated Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits theaters, the 35-year-old Newroom actress and Rodgers, 32, teamed up for a shot donning Star Wars attire, looking very otherworldly.

    Olivia posted the pic to Instagram Friday showing the twosome facing off in Star Wars gear and asking followers who wore it best.

    “Who’s the bigger #StarWars fan…The one who bought this awesome shirt at @oldnavy or the one who already owned his own Obi-Wan Kenobi robe?” she captions the photo of herself in a festive T-shirt with Aaron donning a Jedi costume.

    This little stellar showdown isn’t the first time the two have shown their love of pop culture.
    According to Access Hollywood, Olivia showed off her sword fighting skills that she learned while preparing for her role in X-Men in a memorable social media clip she posted in June.

    Looks like Olivia could wield a light saber effectively.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits theaters on Dec. 17.

    So which one really did wear it best and should be dubbed the biggest Star Wars fan? Olivia Munn or Aaron Rodgers?

  • Olivia Munn Was Pretty Excited About Aaron Rodgers’ Miracle Hail Mary

    Olivia Munn was pretty excited about the Green Bay Packers’ shocking win on Thursday Night Football.

    “I just lost my voice,” she tweeted, followed by about 20 emojis.

    Munn was happy, of course, because boyfriend Aaron Rodgers pulled off a miracle on the final play of the game, giving the Packers the win over the Detroit Lions.

    Here’s the no-time-life-on-the-clock Hail Mary, in all its glory:

    It was the longest game-winning Hail Mary in the history of the league.

    Munn recently hit back at both sportswriters and fans who blamed the Packers’ struggles on her and Rodgers’ relationship.

    “A longtime NFL agent told me recently that when he sees one of his top-performing clients play differently, as Rodgers has of late, the first thing he wonders is if something is going on in his personal life. There’s no indication that Rodgers’ relationship status has changed. Lions reporters said they spotted Rodgers’ girlfriend, actress Olivia Munn, at Lambeau Field on Sunday. Sometimes it’s easy to forget that professional athletes have lives away from the field, and you never know what could be going on in their personal lives,” Rob Demovsky wrote for ESPN.com a couple of weeks back.

    Munn wasn’t happy with this, and hit back on Twitter.

    “Playing it fast & loose w/the journalism @RobDemovsky. Your professional skills are lacking… you must be having personal problems at home,” she wrote.

    The Packers, and especially Aaron Rodgers, are looking better now.

  • Olivia Munn Rips Into Journalists Who Blame Her For Aaron Rodgers’ Declining Performance

    Olivia Munn didn’t take too kindly to being blamed for her boyfriend’s slump.

    Olivia Munn is dating Greenbay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and when his performance seemed to slip recently, ESPN reporter Rob Demovsky tried to pin the blame on her.

    In an article titled “Five reasons why Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is struggling”, he wrote, “A longtime NFL agent told me recently that when he sees one of his top-performing clients play differently, as Rodgers has of late, the first thing he wonders is if something is going on in his personal life.”

    He added, “There’s no indication that Rodgers’ relationship status has changed. Lions reporters said they spotted Rodgers’ girlfriend, actress Olivia Munn, at Lambeau Field on Sunday. Sometimes it’s easy to forget that professional athletes have lives away from the field, and you never know what could be going on in their personal lives.”

    Olivia Munn was quick to hit back at Demovsky.

    Olivia Munn didn’t stop there.

    In another tweet, Olivia Munn fired shots at other sports journalists who took a cue from ESPN and ran with it.

    Olivia Munn even attacked the source for Demovsky’s possible conclusion.

    It turns out, Aaron Rodgers wasn’t having personal issues with Olivia Munn at all. He was playing with an injured throwing shoulder.

    Do you think Olivia Munn overreacted a little to the article or do you think she is justified in setting the record straight in such a direct way?

  • Olivia Munn Hits Back at ESPN Article Blaming Aaron Rodgers’ Struggles on Her

    Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has struggled recently, there’s no debating that. But why?

    According to one ESPN writer, it could be problems at home.

    In an article titled “Five reasons why Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is struggling”, Rob Demovsky suggests that it could be the lack of superstar wide receiver Jordy Nelson that’s contributing to Rodger’s struggles. It could be changes to the play-calling. It could be the fact that he’s hiding an injury.

    Or, it could be problems with his girlfriend, actress Olivia Munn?

    “A longtime NFL agent told me recently that when he sees one of his top-performing clients play differently, as Rodgers has of late, the first thing he wonders is if something is going on in his personal life. There’s no indication that Rodgers’ relationship status has changed. Lions reporters said they spotted Rodgers’ girlfriend, actress Olivia Munn, at Lambeau Field on Sunday. Sometimes it’s easy to forget that professional athletes have lives away from the field, and you never know what could be going on in their personal lives,” Rob Demovsky wrote for ESPN.com.

    Munn is none too thrilled with this characterization, and has hit back on Twitter.

    “Playing it fast & loose w/the journalism @RobDemovsky. Your professional skills are lacking… you must be having personal problems at home,” she wrote.

    When a Twitter follower told Munn not to feed the trolls, she responded by saying,

    “The trolls can have their comments, it’s not them I’m calling out, it’s the journalists. Thanks for the love though.”

    If you read the comments, there’s a mix of those chastising the writer and ESPN for publishing “such garbage,” and those saying that Munn in “wearing out” the quarterback.

    Trolls gonna troll.

  • Olivia Munn Has a Black Belt in Karate, Works Out More Than You

    Olivia Munn turned heads when she said she had to be lubed up to slip into her Psylocke costume for the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse. While Munn is known for her roles in The Newsroom and Magic Mike, tackling a superhero role in a skintight suit will be a whole new game.

    It’s a good thing Olivia Munn stays in shape.

    “I’m the fourth of five children,” Munn said recently. “All of us started karate at around age five and studied it until we were about 16 — and we weren’t allowed to stop practicing until we had achieved black belts. The things that stayed with me the most from that training were the discipline not to give up when something feels too hard and the confidence that comes from knowing that if I keep working hard, I’ll achieve my goal, even if it feels impossible.”

    While Munn’s martial arts background has given her the confidence necessary for a Hollywood career, she still has anxiety issues. She started seeing a therapist for those, but got a surprise benefit at one session.

    “I was going to a hypnotist to help me with my OCD and trichotillomania. One day I told him I didn’t work out, and he said, ‘What do you mean?’ I replied, ‘I don’t know. I just kind of don’t. I yo-yo.’ He said, ‘You have to! It’s good for your anxiety and depression.’ So during one of our sessions, he hypnotized me.”

    What happened after that may well be something Munn was grateful for the day they lubed her into that Psylocke costume.

    “I’m not exaggerating: That was on a Friday, and by Monday I was working out every day at 6 a.m. If I missed a session, I’d double up and do it the next day. Now I feel so much stronger. I remember running up the steps one day and thinking, This is strange. I could do this a hundred times and be totally OK.”

    Olivia Munn is in a well-known relationship with another person who has to stay in great shape, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. He also pushes Olivia Munn to be and do her best.

    “My boyfriend’s healthiness inspires me. Aaron is different than every other man I’ve ever met … there’s so much I could say. Everything a good person can be, he is. He’s in such great shape, and especially lately, he’s been eating so well and working out. Having somebody in your life like that is so motivating.”

  • Olivia Munn Says She Gets Her Fit Body from Hypnosis

    Olivia Munn has come a long way since she played video games on TV. Her successful stint on Newsroom made her a household name, taking her out of the shadows of nerd-dom and into the spotlight.

    Now Munn appears in the tabloids almost as much as any other hot celebrity, particularly since she is also in a celeb relationship. Boyfriend Aaron Rodgers, quarterback for the Green Bay Packers, gets his own share of press. But now Munn tells Good Housekeeping that Rodgers is also her inspiration to saty fit.

    “My boyfriend’s healthiness inspires me. Aaron is different than every other man I’ve ever met … there’s so much I could say. Everything a good person can be, he is,” Olivia Munn said.

    “He’s in such great shape, and especially lately, he’s been eating so well and working out,” Munn continued. “Having somebody in your life like that is so motivating.”

    But even with an inspiring partner to encourage her, Munn was having some difficulty working out. So she went the extra mile, talking with a therapist.

    Munn has used therapy to help her with other issues before. She works to control her OCD and trichotillomania — a disorder that is often characterized by a person pulling on their eyelashes, sometimes pulling them out.

    “I was going to a hypnotist to help me with my OCD and trichotillomania. One day I told him I didn’t work out, and he said, ‘What do you mean?’ I replied, ‘I don’t know. I just kind of don’t. I yo-yo.’ He said, ‘You have to! It’s good for your anxiety and depression.’ So during one of our sessions, he hypnotized me,” Munn revealed.

    Whatever you may personally think of hypnosis as a therapeutic measure, it worked for Olivia Munn.

    “That was on a Friday, and by Monday I was working out every day at 6 a.m. If I missed a session, I’d double up and do it the next day. Now I feel so much stronger. I remember running up the steps one day and thinking, This is strange. I could do this a hundred times and be totally okay.”

  • Olivia Munn Outshines Boyfriend Aaron Rodgers With Sword Fighting Skills

    Olivia Munn has a new skill, and it’s one in which she seriously outshines her boyfriend. Now bear in mind that her boyfriend is Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, and this is a physical skill.

    Yes, Olivia Munn had to learn sword fighting for her action-packed roll in the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse–due out in 2016. And she’s better at it than Aaron Rodgers.

    A couple of days ago Olivia Munn posted a short video clip on Instagram, highlighting some of those sword fighting skills. And her opponent in the clip is none other than Aaron Rodgers.

    “Learned some new tricks,” the Newsroom actress captioned her post.

    A video posted by Olivia Munn (@oliviamunn) on

    What do you think of Aaron Rodgers’s photo-bombing skills? They’re actually better than his sword fighting skills–by far.

    Olivia Munn and Aaron Rodgers began dating back in 2014, and things appear to be going very smoothly for the couple.

    This past January she dished to Conan O’Brien about the first time she met the handsome NFL star.

    “When I met him, I said, ‘So, what do you do?’ And he’s like, ‘Oh, I play football,’” Munn told the late night host. “I go, ‘Cool, what college?’ He’s like, ‘Oh no, I play professionally.’ I go, ‘Cool, what position?’ He’s like, ‘Quarterback.’ That was kinda it, not knowing that he’s like, you know, Super Bowl MVP, or any of those things,… All I saw was that he was really attractive. I didn’t really care what he did.”

    Since then, Olivia Munn and Aaron Rodgers have been inseparable. Fortunately she doesn’t hold his sword fighting skills–or lack thereof–against him.

    Aaron Rodgers seems quite smitten with Olivia Munn, too.

    “I’m real happy in my relationship,” he said in a recent interview. “I understand what comes with it…The last couple years, I’ve learned a lot about perspective and what’s important.”

    Do you think Olivia Munn and Aaron Rodgers are in this for the long haul? Might she impress upon him the need for improving his sword fighting skills or simply accept that she’s far better at it than he is?

  • Olivia Munn Shows Up Beau Aaron Rodgers During Training

    Olivia Munn has been training hard for her role in the upcoming X-Men: Apocalypse film, and she recently posted a video on Instagram showing just how well her training has gone.

    Munn–who will be playing Psylocke in the 2016 movie–shows off her impressive sword-play moves, spinning it with one hand until it becomes a blur as her boyfriend tries–and fails–to mimic her moves. Green Bay Packer Aaron Rodgers practices with his own staff in the video and doesn’t quite make it, much to the amusement of Munn’s Instagram followers.

    The video already has over 35,000 likes on the image-sharing site and has garnered over 3,500 comments, with many of her fans excited to see a sneak preview of her skills.

    Munn told Conan O’Brien recently that when she first met Rodgers, she didn’t know what he did for a living, much less understand how big he is in the football world.

    “When I met him, I said, ‘So, what do you do?’ And he’s like, ‘Oh, I play football.’ I go, ‘Cool, what college?’ He’s like, ‘Oh no, I play professionally.’ I go, ‘Cool, what position?’ He’s like, ‘Quarterback.’ That was kinda it, not knowing that he’s like, you know, Super Bowl MVP, or any of those things,… All I saw was that he was really attractive. I didn’t really care what he did,” Olivia said.

    For Rodgers, dating an actress came with the need for understanding regarding the media and how tabloids race to cover their relationship, but he told ESPN that he’s okay with it.

    “For one, I’m real happy in my relationship. And I understand what comes with it. And two, the last couple years I’ve learned a lot about perspective and what’s important. And, that you cannot, when you’ve had success individually and collectively as a team and you are highlighted for the things you’ve done on the field and off the field, you cannot hide from the spotlight. You have to learn to embrace it.”

  • Olivia Munn Gushes Over NFL Beau Aaron Rodgers — What He Does Is ‘the Sexiest Thing’

    Olivia Munn says her romance with Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is stronger than ever.

    “It’s going really great,” Olivia Munn told E! News Wednesday at the premiere of her latest film, Mortdecai, alongside Johnny Depp, Gwyneth Paltrow and Ewan McGregor. “I’m very happy. He’s the best.”

    Olivia Munn said that while the end to the Packers’ season was disappointing, she is still so proud of the man she has been dating since May.

    “I’m just so proud of him and his team, and what I was able to see this season was unbelievable,” said Oivia Munn gushed.

    “I’ve never seen anything like that. The things that he’s gone through this season and what he’s overcome and what he does, it’s really unbelievable,” she said, referring to Aaron Rodgers’ calf injury, which has led him to pull out of Sunday’s Pro Bowl.

    “It’s definitely the sexiest thing to watch your boyfriend be that great over and over and over,” Olivia Munn said, adding, “What Aaron does and going through, the injuries bit then coming back and dominating like he does? It’s awe-inspiring.”

    Olivia Munn recently shared the story of her adorable first meeting with her quarterback beau on Late Night With Conan OBrien.

    “I said, ‘So what do you do?’ And he said, ‘Oh I play football.’ ‘Cool. What college?’ And he’s like, ‘Oh, no. I play professional.’ And I was like, ‘Cool, what position?’ ‘Quarterback.’ ‘Cool.’ Like that was kind of it not knowing that he’s like Super Bowl MVP or any of those things,” Olivia said on Conan of her very famous and successful boyfriend. “All I saw was that he was like really attractive. I didn’t really care what he did. I was like you are such a big man!”

  • Olivia Munn: Sexy, Sheer on ‘Mortdecai’ Red Carpet

    Olivia Munn went for a sexy and sheer look as she strolled the red carpet at the Mortdecai premiere in Hollywood on Wednesday. The Newsroom star stunned in a Ralph Rucci black gown that boasted a strategic, semi-sheer bodice that left little to the imagination.

    Needing little to accent her sizzling ensemble, Olivia Munn wore minimal makeup, but went all out with her hair.

    “Olivia is wearing a gorgeous dress that is very sexy, with a body-hugging silhouette,” stylist Christian Marc told Us Weekly at the event. To complement the design of her dress, he decided on a “glamorous, mid-70s style—very high fashion.”

    Olivia Munn’s boyfriend Aaron Rodgers is a lucky man. Munn dished about their relationship with E! News following her red carpet appearance at the Mortdecai premiere.

    It’s going really great,” she said. “I’m very happy. He’s the best.”

    Aaron Rodgers, of course, is the Green Bay Packers’ star quarterback. The two have been dating since May.

    “I’m just so proud of him and his team, and what I was able to see this season was unbelievable,” Munn gushed. “I’ve never seen anything like that. The things that he’s gone through this season and what he’s overcome and what he does, it’s really unbelievable.”

    Aaron Rodgers is no doubt very proud of Olivia Munn as well–from the way she dazzled the crowd on the red carpet on Wednesday to her growing success in both the TV and the film world.

    In a funny note, however, Olivia Munn has admitted that when she and Aaron Rodgers first met, she had no idea who the football hunk was.

  • Olivia Munn Shares Details About Game Day Sex With Packers Quarterback Aaron Rodgers

    Olivia Munn opened a can of worms Thursday by revealing some juicy tidbits about her sex life with her boyfriend, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

    It was during a Plead the Fifth segment on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live this week that the 34-year-old Newsroom actress spilled the beans on whether or not she and Rodgers get intimate before he suits up on game day.

    Munn initially blushed when host Andy Cohen asked, “Do you have sex on game days?”

    After some prodding from Cohen and her fellow guest, Top Chef star Padma Lakshmi, she finally gave in and answered his “good question.”

    “Well, I will say that all the good luck charms are on the field and in the stands, so it has nothing to do with me. And, uh, no we don’t. Not on game day. There’s not a rule, but it just doesn’t happen because there’s other things to focus on,” she said.

    Not completely satisfied with the answer, Cohen then asked if she gets intimate with Rodgers after a win, especially if he played well.

    “Depends on how late the game is,” Munn said before asking her own question.

    “Can you have sex the night before? Is that game day?” she asked. “There are no rules, by the way. But usually yes. I try to have sex as much as I can.”

    Munn and her quarterback beau have been dating since last spring and were first photographed together in April when they appeared together at the 49th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas.

    Rodgers plays for the Green Bay Packers and Munn is an actress. Still, Munn said that they make their relationship work by spending as much time together as possible and enjoying the little things in life.

    In a recent interview with E! News, Munn was asked how she and Rodgers make time for each other with so much going on in their lives.

    “You just end up making those concessions. You make decisions because it can’t all be work and it can’t all be your personal life, especially when you’ve worked so hard to have a career. There’s a lot of travelling, a lot of driving, and then you’re just really happy with the decisions that you make. And for me, it comes at a time in my life when I end up having to say no to some work because I gotta be somewhere else,” she said.

    While most men and women try to have it all, Munn said that she has come to understand that life just doesn’t work that way.

    Pictures of the Munn and Rodgers kissing were posted online, and Rodgers was asked if he was upset about them during an interview with ESPN Wisconsin radio. The athlete said, “No. For one, I’m real happy in my relationship. And I understand what comes with it. And two, the last couple years I’ve learned a lot about perspective and what’s important.”

    He also said that both he and Munn have their individual successes and they are always highlighted for the things that they do. “You cannot hide from the spotlight. You have to learn to embrace it,” Rodgers said.

    Rodgers mentioned that he is still not used to the attention at times, since it is not what he signed up for. However, he understands that being in the public eye is part of being a professional football player. To add to that, he is also dating a famous actress. “There’s always going to be attention or scrutiny, and you can either… embrace it or you can lock yourself away. And I just can’t do that. I need to be living my life,” he said.

    Rodgers and Munn reportedly met at the Academy of Country Music Awards held last April. They started dating in May.

    Munn, on the other hand, hasn’t talked about her relationship with Rodgers. However, in an interview with Vogue, she was asked about what she is most excited about in her life right now. She answered, “Everything,” with a sigh.

    The 33-year-old actress will be returning as Sloan Sabbith, a socially awkward and attractive economist in The Newsroom, which will be premiering in fall 2014 for its third and final season.

  • Olivia Munn Is Dating Aaron Rodgers

    Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, 30, tries to keep his personal life as private as possible. However, when he started dating The Newsroom’s Olivia Munn, 33, it got harder to keep his relationships a secret.

    The tabloids got wind of Rodgers and Munn’s relationship after US Weekly posted a photo of them kissing that has since made its rounds across the Internet.

    Despite his relationship being aired for the public, Rodgers says that he is okay with that and is very happy in his relationship with Munn.

    “For one, I’m real happy in my relationship,” Rodgers told Jason Wilde of ESPN Milwaukee. “And I understand what comes with it. And two, the last couple years I’ve learned a lot about perspective and what’s important. And, that you cannot, when you’ve had success individually and collectively as a team and you are highlighted for the things you’ve done on the field and off the field, you cannot hide from the spotlight. You have to learn to embrace it.”

    “I think it’s a process for me. I think it really took a while for me – and you still work through it – to get to a comfort level with that. But finally, you say, ‘You know what? It comes with the territory.’ It’s not what I signed up for. I signed up to play football, because I love it, and have as long as I can remember – watching the Niners on TV as a kid with my family to watching my favorite players and following them in high school and college and becoming a professional,” Rodgers added.

    “This is what I always wanted to do. You don’t realize what all comes with it at times, but I think on some level, you have to embrace that. And the older you get, you focus on the things that are most important, and you learn to deal with or embrace the things that are more difficult.”

    Rodgers explained that the publicity comes with the territory, and rather than run from it he has decided to embrace it. He says there are some things you simply can’t control and it is better to enjoy his life and his relationships rather than worrying about what the tabloids have to say.
