Quote Of The Day

"We would drink together and smoke together . . . and it's just a bad deal. It's not something that is conducive to being a role model—no iconic actors that I know of have problems like that. And I don't know how to do it like a gentleman. I don't know how to have one drink." - Shia LaBeouf in the September 2008 issue of Details mag, coming out just after his recent arrest for drunk driving.

It's All Sunny For The Dark Knight (With The Exception Of Christian Bale)

I know I'm not the only one out there who waited in HUGE lines this past weekend to catch the premiere of the amazingly clever and the darker than ever batman movie, The Dark Knight. Obviously not, because the latest in the series broke records in the U.S. with an opening weekend of $155.3 million. And I have a feeling that the number will keep on rising in the weeks to come.

As for batman, now that's a different story. Christian Bale appears to be going through a slightly darker time. The actor is denying allegations, after being arrested, that he assaulted both his mother and sister. Calling the matter "deeply personal," the actor is denying all allegations, cooperating and asking the media to respect his privacy. Bale made his first appearance since the claims were outed with wife Sibi at the movie's premiere in Barcelona.

They're Here!

Question: What were you doing last night?

Answer: Awaiting the news of Angie and Brad's twins, duh.

Well, no need to await any longer! They have arrived! Just last night Angie gave birth to a boy and a girl. The names. Yes the names. These babies' names have been speculated about in every newspaper and on every entertainment show recently. I'm not sure if they were what people were expecting, but I would really love to know where they came from and why they were chosen. Little Knox Leon was born first weighing 5.03 lbs followed by sister Vivienne Marcheline weighing 5 lbs (Marcheline I do know is her mother's first name). Born by Cesarean section in the Nice hospital, Dr. Sussmann stated that the "babies are doing well. The operation went just perfectly. Angelina is in very good spirits. Brad Pitt was at her side. He was there and all was well."

And how did the doting dad of six do during the birth? (Speaking of doting hottie dads, what a week it's been, first a mini Matthew and now a Brad junior!) Always by Angie's side, talking and laughing, the doc called him his "assistant." And he even cut the babies' umbilical cords! The doc went even further describing him as being "perfectly calm, totally determined, very pleased to be at the birth of his children, very moved and very emotional."

Awww, I'm so excited for them!! Congrats!

And The Name

What I assume will be one hunk of a little boy, Matthew and Camila have named their new bundle of joy Levi Alves McConaughey. The name seems very fitting, I like!

What Matthew had to say after the birth: "'Levi' was another name for the apostle 'Matthew' in the bible...they were, in fact, two names for the same person...our son was born at 6:22 pm, and this particular 'time' represents my favorite verse in the book of Matthew in the bible...Camila's last name is 'Alves'...We wanted to incorporate her family name, so we decided to make our child's middle name 'Alves'..."

"We welcome 'Levi Alves McConaughey' into this wonderful life and look forward to livin it with him, in the mean time all times, just keep livin..."

Maddie Makes Her Debut

As the baby boom of '08 continues, (just a few left, Angelina, Gwen, Ashlee) OK! mag is revealing the first photos of Maddie Briann with Jamie Lynn. Cuteness!

Deets about the delivery: "Once I got in there, my doctor was just so calm and so good it was not bad at all. I was just talking to Casey. And you know what's so weird? I was asking him if he was okay. He was like, 'Yeah.' We were both so excited."

And of course, how is little Maddie: "She is very good. She'll feed every two or three hours. When she wakes up in the middle of the night, I'll feed her and she goes right back to sleep. There's no screaming and crying. We get up in the morning, and she gets her little bath. Then I get my bath. We have a routine, and I love routines. I've worked one out with her, and we're happy going about our little life."

Weeks Away

Angelina may have a ways to go before delivering her babies (who by the way have just been granted honorary citizenship of Nice with the mayor referring to them as "two little Nicois"). During a press conference, her obstetrician Dr. Michel Sussmann assured the world that she is doing fine, something Brangelina wanted to share with everyone. (How nice of them!) "Everything is normal," he said in both English and French. "She is very well, and she's okay...Brad and Angelina want everyone to know that everything is going well." According to the doc, the twins' arrival will be "in the weeks to come." Throughout the past week, Brad has brought Shiloh and Zahara to visit their mom, as well as Maddox who made a trip to the hospital with a bodyguard.

Thanks Spencer, I Guess





















Surprise, surprise, Spencer has stirred up yet another feud, but this time he's actually apologizing. The lucky girl is yes, MKO.

“I apologize for getting caught up in trash talking, but she brought up an emotional subject when she mentioned the soccer stuff...I know Dave was just doing his job in asking her...He’s the best in the game at that...I respect Mary Kate as a business-woman...I’m secretly jealous of her. I want my face on a lunchbox, too!”

Good choice Mr. Pratt!

Her Guy Is Back

Madonna's life has been drama-filled the past few weeks, but not to worry, the Queen of Pop and her hubby Guy Ritchie put the divorce rumors to rest, at least for now, when they stepped out together for dinner in NYC.

As for her her so-called affair partner in crime, the Yankees' third basemen A-Rod (who has reportedly been visiting her apartment during late hours of the night, as well as giving her his seats for his home games and studying Kabbalah) has split with his wife, who is said to be in Paris with rocker Lenny Kravitz, but of course just as friends. And the solution to all of this, all three, Kravitz, Madonna and A-Rod, share the same manager.

Phew, that was a mouthful.

Quote Of The Day

Pete Wentz is revealing a little more about himself in the upcoming issue of Out magazine. He's made out with boys.

“When I said that I make out with dudes, there was a slight sense of sexual rebellion in that. And I probably even made it a bigger deal than it was.”

And the last time he has locked lips with another man, "“Probably when I was 22?”
