Drew Barrymore announced yesterday that she is pregnant with her second kid, only a little over a year after giving birth to her first daughter, Olive. So the kids will be awfully close in age, which is fun. They'll be in separate grades, which is important, but at home they'll be close. In theory, anyway. Barrymore says that she made an official announcement because last time people were hounding her for months asking her if she was pregnant and it got annoying, so now it's out in the open, that's that. No word yet on the sex of the baby, but if it's another girl she should be named Peach and if it's a boy it should be Fig. Y'know, keping with the theme. Unless the theme was colors, and then the girl will be Opal and the boy will be Blue. There, Drew. Solved that for you. [People ]
The rumor right now is that Bethenny Frankel, reality show star turned successful chemical peddler turned talk show host, is dating some kind of billionaire. They've been friends for a long time, so it's possible that they went to St. Tropez together as just friends, but Page Six isn't so sure. Even though Bethenny tweeted about it this morning, joking that her dating a billionaire is about as likely as her sleeping with a porn star. So Bethenny says it's not happening, but is it happening? It might be happening! Of course she doesn't need to date a billionaire, she's got her own pile of dough, but when you run around in the high-powered world of a potable acids mogul, as she does, billionaires are just who you meet and hang out with. So. Maybe they're dating! Maybe they're not. We'll probably never know for sure. [Page Six]
Taylor Swift has wrapped filming on The Giver, the big book adaptation in which she has a supporting role, and she's now gushing about what an amazing time she had on set. "I still can't believe I shot in South Africa and shot all my scenes with Jeff Bridges. It was unreal," she told Access Hollywood. When reached for comment, Bridges responded, "Yeah, 'unreal' would definitely be one word for it." [Us Weekly ]
The world is a vampire. Kendall Jenner, daughter of Kris and Bruce, turned 18 a mere two days ago, and already offers to do pornography are flooding in. According to TMZ, anyway. What is wrong with this planet? Not that there's anything inherently bad about porn (if it's done right, of course), but come on. She's been 18 for two days. Let her breathe, for heaven's sake! I know all of the offers are mostly just halfhearted stabs in the dark and don't really mean anything, but still. Still! Ease up, everyone. Stop competing to see who can be the sleaziest. I don't get why anyone is competing for that title, but they are, all the time. Mostly in Los Angeles. I'm sorry, but that's true. San Diego too. The whole of Southern California, really. Face facts. [TMZ]
Oh dear. Kerry Washington's husband Nnamdi Asomugha was cut from the San Francisco 49ers yesterday. Or "waived." That's the nicer-sounding term. Whatever you want to call it, they decided they do not want him playing on the team anymore. So he is without a squadron! And this is after getting unceremoniously dumped by the Eagles in 2012 after a disappointing season, only two years into a supposed five-year, $60 million agreement. Asomugha's been around a long time and has earned his money, but still. This has got to be a disappointment. Oh well. Kerry's doing well and there's a baby on the way, so there's stuff to be excited about. And there's always the XFL! Hm? What's that? The XFL was a horrible debacle and was thrown into the garbage after one season, twelve years ago? Oh, OK. Never mind. Sorry. [Us Weekly ]
Dolly Parton, Miley Cyrus's godmother, says she's not worried about the young pop singer's recent controversial antics. "I know that she has thought this all through. We'll let her go and do her own thing," she told the London Evening Standard. So, Dolly has spoken. If you wouldn't listen to anyone else about leavin' Miley alone, you gotta listen to Dolly. Her word is law. Everyone reading this lives in Pigeon Forge, right? Because her word is only law there. But I'm pretty sure you all live there, so. Listen to Dolly. Heed Dolly. [People ]
Alexandra Paul, who played the Baywatch lifeguard who wasn't blonde with huge boobs, has had a restraining order put out against her by her own stalker. Yes, now they both have restraining orders against each other. It all has something to do with a community pool? Fitting that it would involve swimming, I guess. Anyway, the whole story sounds like a big creepy mess. [TMZ]
Look, Nick Jonas, the "cute one" from the now-defunct Jonas Brothers, is in a very short new movie trailer and in it he is shirtless and Us Weekly is very excited about it, writing "the former Disney standout can be seen in all his shirtless glory around the 14-second mark, as he emerges from a lake." Yeah, some adult somewhere wrote that. Which is kind of funny to think about. [Us Weekly ]
OMG PATRICK SCHWARZENEGGER WENT ON A DATE!!!! [Daily Mail ]
