Halle Berry feels like a “man in drag” if she wears too much makeup.
The X-Men actress - who is considered to be one of the world’s most beautiful women - prefers to show off her natural good looks rather than spend time applying beauty products. “Less is more. When I wear too much makeup, I feel like a man in drag. I prefer to be low-maintenance,” she said.
Halle - who has an 18-month-old daughter, Nahla, with boyfriend Gabriel Aubry and is rumored to be having a second child - has revealed she dedicates even less time to preening herself since Nahla was born.
“My beauty routine has changed since I became a mother. Now all my efforts are for her. I don’t style my hair much any more, but I do hers all the time!” she explained to Britain’s InStyle magazine.
The 43-year-old actress has previously revealed she loves having a family and believes starting a family has changed her life.
“Motherhood will always be my priority now, especially because I had a child for the first time at 41. My priority had been myself for a long time, but now it will always be Nahla. You think you know what love is - until you have a child and discover that unconditional mother love,” she said.

Jennifer Hudson’s Talking Newborn
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Celebrity Babies,
Jennifer Hudson is convinced her seven-week-old baby talks to her.
The singer, who has a son, David, with fiance David Otunga, is adamant her offspring is a genius and is already trying to converse with her.
“He’s a very rare newborn. He tries a lot - he’s turning over, he’s lifting up his own head, he tries to hold his own bottle, sometimes I swear he’s talking to me, or at least trying to,” the 28-year-old said. “The other day he said, ‘Hi!’ - I swear, I’m not crazy. David was there too, and he was like, ‘He just said, Hi!’ He’s very aware.”
Jennifer is inspired to be a good parent by her own mother - who, along with the singer’s brother Jason, was killed last year by William Balfour, the estranged husband of Jennifer’s sister Julia.
She is determined to give David the best start in life, and is already investing in special outfits for him to wear on his first Halloween. “It’s going to be ridiculous. I can’t wait. His dad went and bought him some Halloween stuff the other night. I wish he was older so he could remember it, but this is the first one, so I have to go all out. It’s going to be great,” Jennifer explained to People magazine.
The “Spotlight” singer thinks David might even follow in her footsteps by becoming a musician. “The other night he was having a fit screaming, and someone turns on the music and he just stops and calms down. Sometimes when he cries, I try to harmonize!” she said.

Jon Gosselin: Sorry, Kate
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Television, Break-ups, Legal Issues, Meltdowns, Rivalries, Rumors,
“Kate, I just want to apologize, you know for my actions.” These are the words Jon Gosselin will speak tonight to Mary Hart on his ET segment. “Now, I have to take the initiative. Let’s both go together, let’s both mediate this thing out.”
I believe “this thing” refers to his recent fallout with TLC, the cable network that made he and estranged wife Kate reality celebrities. Jon Gosselin went apes**t, if you’ll pardon the expression, when Jon and Kate became Kate Plus 8, signifying the new direction of the show. He posted a sign on his property forbidding the camera crews to do their job and made incendiary remarks through his legal representative, igniting a media firestorm that’s been watched anxiously.
Want to hear the rest? Watch the interview tonight…or, catch it later on YouTube.

Saved by the Bell Book: A.C. Slater Was a Player
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: D-List, Television, Hook-ups, Child Stars, Videos, Where Are They Now?,
Dustin Diamond, aka Screech Powers, sat down in front of cameras recently to give a reading of his new tell-all, Behind the Bell. This particular passage focuses on the many on-set loves of Mario Lopez, who played muscle-bound hunk A.C. Slater on the show.
To be perfectly clear, Diamond did not actually see these alleged sexual relations (that we know about). But he builds most of his storytelling on who went back to who’s trailer once tape stopped rolling.

Courtney Love Rescued by Johnny Depp
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: D-List, Movies, Music, Drugs, Drunk,
Johnny Depp once saved Courtney Love‘s life.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star had to give the Hole singer - who has a history of drink and drug abuse - the kiss of life when she collapsed after a heavy session.
“Nobody has ever loaned me money. I mean, I was going to die on a few occasions. Johnny Depp gave me CPR on one. That’s as close as I ever got. I was watching that movie where he plays Dillinger, and I was like ‘Mother f***er, I never had myself any JD except CPR,’” Love said.
Courtney - widow of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain - also revealed strangers gave her money following her financial difficulties earlier this year. She and her 17-year-old daughter Frances Bean are currently staying at a New York hotel while they waits for work to be completed on a nearby apartment, and she admits they’ve been treated like royalty.
She told Britain’s Style magazine: “They are the best staff in the world. When my bank account got frozen, we had $14.32 a week, so we lived off the kindness of strangers. The guy at the travel agency put his credit card down for the hotel. How insanely nice is that? And we are on the sixth floor. Not love nor money will buy you this floor.”

Robert Pattinson Channels James Dean, Johnny Depp
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Style, Rants, Photos,
For not being a fan of his own face, Twilight hunk Robert Pattinson is not helping his case when he’s styled like iconic heartthrob James Dean on this month’s cover of AnOther Man.
The black-and-white, the perfectly-tousled hair, the I-know-I’m-hot-but-I’m-going-to-look-mysterious facial expression. No, you definitely do not have me fooled, Mr. Pattinson. Johnny Depp already did this way before you—find another avenue to feel sorry for your woe-is-me self on.
“Annoyingly, there are so few parts I feel I can add anything to, or that I want to do. I don’t want to be an actor for the sake of it. I don’t find any particular pleasure in being an attention-seeker,” Pattinson said. Right. That’s why you signed on to Twilight in the first place, beating out 5,000 other actors for the coveted role of Edward Cullen.
That’s not to say that I still don’t enjoy drooling over his pictures, like the one after the jump…

Mackenzie Phillips Never Expected Media Reaction
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Television, Celebrity Babies, Child Stars, Where Are They Now?,
Mackenzie Phillips is still riding the shock wave that rocked the world when she revealed that her father John Phillips (of The Mamas & the Papas fame) shared an incestuous relationship with her for a decade.
“I never expected this huge national dialogue,” she recently told the Early Show.
Frankly, I find that statement a little hard to believe. You’ve got to expect that when one sort of celebrity reveals such a shocking thing about a former celebrity that something big is going to happen. Her shocking revelation is concurrent with the release of her book, High On Arrival.
