  • Alexandria Zahra Jones, David Bowie’s Daughter, To Inherit A Fortune From The Late Rock Icon’s Estate

    Alexandria Zahra Jones certainly is a lucky girl to have a legendary father who was loved by many and who loved her very much.

    Even in death, David Bowie showed great generosity to the people he loved and cared about. His will, which was signed in August of 2004, was finally filed on Friday afternoon in a courthouse in Manhattan. According to a report by The New York Times, the 20-page document distributes his roughly $100 million estate among his immediate family and a couple of loyal employees.

    Bowie, whose real name was David Jones, directed his executors to grant half of his fortune to his wife Iman, and the other half to his two children. The 60-year-old supermodel and businesswoman will be receiving her inheritance from Bowie’s attorneys in quarterly installments.

    Meanwhile, his eldest child, Duncan Jones will get his 25% share upfront. Duncan is a 44-year-old film director whose mother is actress Angela Barnett.

    His youngest child and only daughter, 15-year-old Alexandria Zahra Jones – or Lexi to her family and friends – will also receive $25 million, although she will have to wait until she turns 25 to gain access to it. Bowie also gave her his vacation property in upstate New York, which will also be hers on her 25th birthday.

    He also left $2 million to his long-time personal assistant Corinne “Coco” Schwab, whom he also named guardian of Lexi in the event that Iman dies before she turns 18. Duncan’s former nanny, a Swiss woman named Marion Skene also received $1 million from the will.

    Apart from the division of his fortune, David Bowie also indicated how the family is to manage his remains.

    A Buddhist for most of his adult life, Bowie requested that his body be taken to the Indonesian island of Bali and “cremated there in accordance with the Buddhist rituals.”

    “If that is not practical, then I direct that my executors shall arrange for my remains to be cremated and my ashes scattered in Bali,” the will further stated.

    The late “Changes” singer succumbed to liver cancer last month at the age of 69, just two days after the release of his album, Blackstar. He was known for being extremely low-key and private, and was rarely seen out except for when he walked his daughter, Alexandria Zahra Jones to school.

    Corinne Foxx Makes Her Celebrity Dad Proud As Miss Golden Globe 2016

    Corinne Foxx, the 21-year-old daughter of veteran actor and R&B singer Jamie Foxx, performed her duties gracefully as this year’s Miss Golden Globe.

    Jamie, 48, presented his daughter to the A-list crowd with some touching words as she stepped onstage during the annual awards show in Hollywood, California.

    “This young lady is absolutely the love of my life. This young lady is absolutely my heart. She is Miss Golden Globe. This young lady’s name is Miss Corinne Foxx,” Foxx told the audience.

    The Django Unchained actor shared that Corinne has not asked him for money, nor has she been in trouble. He said that his daughter deserves this moment.

    Late in 2015, Corinne received what she thought was a random email which indicated that she was chosen as Miss Golden Globe for 2016.

    “I was screaming and jumping up and down for two hours when I got it,” she said as she remembered the moment.

    Her dad Jamie – whose real name is Eric Bishop – was just as clueless as she was and was also surprised when the confirmation arrived.

    The Miss or Mister Golden Globe is chosen by the HFPA each year, and includes sons or daughters of the industry’s top actors and actresses, directors, and producers. These awardees are often seen as forthcoming stars who will soon make it big in Hollywood.

    Corinne Foxx, who adopted her father’s stage surname, is on her senior year at the University of Southern California, taking her Bachelor’s Degree in Public Relations. After she graduates and receives her diploma in May, she plans to pursue acting as well.

    In addition, Corinne Foxx has also started modeling and has signed up with L.A. Models.

    Along with Corinne Foxx, previous recipients of the Miss Golden Globe honor include Dakota Johnson, Rumer Willis, Laura Dern, and Lorraine Nicholson.

  • Nicole Kidman: The Real Reason She Did Not Attend Her Daughter’s Wedding

    Isabella and Max opted for a low-key and private ceremony, surrounded only by closest friends and family members. However, Nicole, Tom, and Isabella’s brother, Connor were absent from the most important day of her life.

    Rumors claim Isabella and Max sat them down and asked them not to go.

    Despite the fact that Cruise had not met Isabella’s partner yet, he actually paid for the whole ceremony but was asked to not attend because his presence might attract the attention of the media. “Tom picked up the bill and paid for everything, but it was decided that neither he nor Nicole should attend as it would have turned the whole event into a circus,” a source said.

    As for Nicole, she was reportedly banned from the wedding but the truth was that she was involved in the wedding plans, too.

    “Nicole was actually involved in the wedding preparations and she did have a private dinner with Bella and Max. But she didn’t go to the ceremony. Also, the animosity between Tom and Nicole was probably a factor,” the source added.

    Connor did not attend as well, to keep the ceremony a secret. The proceedings, which featured a mixture of Scientology and Christian rituals, was said to be low-key but very expensive, according to another source.

    Isabella and Connor followed their father’s belief in Scientology and chose to live with him instead of Nicole, but Nicole clarified in past interviews that their family didn’t have any rifts.

    Although the wedding was kept secret, Nicole’s daughter shared some photos of her big day, including one where is wearing a minidress with black tights and her bridesmaids wearing pale pink jumpsuits.

    Tom and Nicole were very supportive of their daughter’s marriage, although refused to comment about it.

  • Drew Barrymore Gives Daughter ‘The Radest Most Hilarious Tiger Cake On The Planet’ For Her Third Birthday

    When you come from a family of actors and started acting before you turned one, it feels like you’ve been in the industry forever.

    But Drew Barrymore has been proving that there’s more to her life than just screaming and crying on camera. She is enjoying her time with her husband and two kids, and has not appeared on the big screen for quite some time.

    Recently, Drew proudly shared her daughter’s birthday cake on Instagram.

    According to Drew, her daughter, Olive, wanted a tiger cake for her third birthday celebration, but the cake turned out to be “the radest and most hilarious tiger cake on the planet.” Instead of putting a colorful tiger plush or a cute tiger fondant on the cake, Drew printed a photo of a real tiger from Instagram and put it on top of a sheet cake, accompanying it with her wishes for Olive.

    “Happy birthday to one of my two daughters, who are simply put, my whole universe,” Drew captioned the photo of the cake she shared.

    Drew also added to the caption, “There is no end to my love for them. Three years old. Best three years of my life. #birthdaygirl #tigercake #crazybirthdaycakes.”

    Drew Barrymore is currently married to actor Will Kopelman and they have a one-year old baby, named Frankie.

    “I love movies but the hours right now for where my kids are in their life, it’s few and far between that I’ll work,” Drew said.

    Aside from being a cool mom, Drew is also busy with her beauty and make-up business, Flower, and reportedly launching a branded Barrymore wine.

    “Flower has changed my life because it lets me be a mom the way I want to be and I still get to do something meaningful and think about girls and women and empowering messages,” Drew told E! Online.

    With her current priorities, seems like Drew Barrymore isn’t returning to the limelight anytime soon.

  • Demi Moore Inspired Daughter Tallulah Willis To Shave Her Head

    Tallulah Willis is sporting a new ‘do—and it’s inspired by one of her mother Demi Moore’s most iconic film roles. Tallulah recently shaved her head in tribute to her mother’s character in GI Jane, a movie in which Demi stars as the first woman to be trained in the US Navy Special Warfare Group.

    Her older sister, Rumer Willis, revealed that Tallulah had shaven her own head, taking their mother Demi’s GI Jane look a step further. Rumer documented her 20-year-old sister’s process of shaving her own head in an Instagram video with the caption, “@buuski is a bad ass bitch #GIjane #rawbeauty,” immediately referencing Demi’s iconic movie role. In the video, Tallulah is laughing as she uses an electric razor to shave off what was previously a pixie cut.

    Tallulah also took to her own Instagram account to showcase her new look. She posted a photo with the caption, “November 18th. remember it.” Demi’s daughter also attributed the inspiration for her shaven head to her mom, posting a photo of Demi in 1997 when she shaved her head for GI Jane. “mawms is bae. #thankgodgoodheadshapesruninthefamily,” reads Tallulah’s caption.

    Tallulah then took her new look to Sayer’s Club in Los Angeles to support Rumer’s music. She posted a photo of herself and her 26-year-old sister, with the caption, “Luv u proud of u can’t wait to hear you sing my precious songbird @ruelarue.” Tallulah also played up her bald-headed look on social media with the help of her other sister Scout, who posted a Vine video of her singing Sinead O’Connor’s “Nothing Compares 2 U” in the car. Demi’s daughters are apparently supportive of each other throughout all their endeavors.

    Tallulah reportedly made the news last summer when she checked herself into rehab to fight body dysmorphia. However, Rumer supposedly told Us Weekly that her sister was back and better than ever.

  • Kristen Bell Enjoying More Private Life

    Kristen Bell Enjoying More Private Life

    Kristen Bell is adorable and getting more and more so each day as her baby bump continues to grow.

    The Frozen star, already mom to daughter Lincoln, is much more comfortable in her second pregnancy. No, it’s not due to wearing sweats more often.

    Earlier this year, Bell and other A-list celebrities joined forces to create a No Kids policy.

    The policy works like this: If you are a publication that prints pictures of children of celebrities without their parents’ permission, don’t count on an interview with the celebrities who participate in the policy.

    That would be a bad line to cross, since celebrities like Jennifer Aniston and Jennifer Lawrence are on board.

    When she first began rallying for the change, Kristen Bell said, “I like being an actress very much,” she said, “but I love being a mother and it is a very clear decision which one I would choose.”

    “I’ll argue until my dying day that my daughter should not be affected by my career choice,” she added.

    So far, the policy seems to be working and has brought relief to many a celebrity parent like Kristen Bell.

    “The response has been so overwhelming that it’s really almost a moral stance that the consumer demanded their publications take,” Bell said in an interview. “We’re all consuming healthier media now.”

    She added, “I feel a lot safer because I’m not followed at all now. It makes me feel like we all rallied and did something. The good people that were on the side of responsible parenting and passionate about child welfare spoke up and made a difference, and that is a really invigorating feeling.”

    Congratulations to Kristen Bell on successfully getting paparazzi to back off! That was quite a feat, I’m sure. Hopefully her second pregnancy will continue without stress from constant prying.

  • Madonna: Daughter’s Green Hair Is Latest Experiment

    Madonna’s daughter, Lourdes, is known for her fashion sense and for trying out new things with her style, and her latest look is a little bit punk rock.

    The 16-year old was snapped recently in New York sporting bright green tresses, and though she kept the rest of her look simple in a t-shirt and jeans, her hair is getting some attention. Like most teenagers, however, she seems to just enjoy sampling new things, and hair color is an easy thing to change. Mom Madonna says she’s not very strict when it comes to certain things, something she wants to work on.

    “I’m probably not as tough as I should be. I think I need to be maybe tougher,” she said.

    But being one of the most famous and recognized faces in the world does add a certain amount of stress to her plate, and the Material Girl says she’s just doing her best to get through the day.

    “To be a single mother of four and to work as much as I do, and live my life in a kind of metaphorical fish bowl, it’s pretty challenging,” she said. “But so far I’ve survived with sanity and humor intact.”

    Lourdes is Madonna’s daughter with ex Carlos Leon; she also has a son, Rocco, with film director Guy Ritchie and both a son and daughter whom she adopted: David and Mercy.
