Weeklies cheat sheet: Twice the Kate MiddletonIn this week's celebrity weekly round-up, two of the covers give Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton plenty of shine, while a third tells Reese Witherspoon she looks like she's pregnant. While you were working...Today's news you might've missed:
J.Lo and Marc Anthony call it quitsJennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are splitting up after seven years of marriage. "We have decided to end our marriage," the couple says in a statement. "This was a very difficult decision. We have come to amicable conclusion on all matters. It is a painful time for all involved and we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time." Lopez, 41, and Anthony, 42, wed in 2004, according to People, and are the parents of 3-year-old twins Max and Emme. The pair also have a reality show in the works, called "Q'Viva! The Chosen," which is described as "the ultimate live show celebrating Latin music, artistry and dance." All-stars and the top 10 revealed on 'SYTYCD'Before I get to Thursday night's eliminations on "So You Think You Can Dance," I have to talk about all the news that Nigel Lythgoe and company had for us. First and foremost, it was devastating to hear that Alex Wong has injured himself once again. Still keeping my fingers crossed that he will be a part of season 9! Then, it was finally time to reveal this year's all-stars. I thought it would either be the same as last year's, or a brand new batch of them, and it turned out to be a little of both. Two from 'True Blood' headed for the big screen"True Blood" stars Joe Manganiello and Alexander Skarsgard are hailed as some of the hottest in the steamy series, and now fans can admire them on a bigger screen. According to Entertainment Weekly, Manganiello - known to "True Blood" fans as Alcide - has joined the cast of "What to Expect When You're Expecting," a romantic comedy already filled to the brim with big names. Following four couples bound for parenthood, the movie stars Jennifer Lopez as a woman having trouble conceiving, Cameron Diaz as a fitness instructor, and Brooklyn Decker as a mom-to-be of twins whose easy pregnancy sparks envy. Latest 'Potter' film brings in $43.5 millionIt's been out only a few hours and already “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2” is breaking records. Warner Bros. Pictures announced that the final film in the "Potter" franchise "smashed the domestic box office record for a midnight opening, taking in a phenomenal $43.5 million." Having already raked in $25 million domestically before even opening, the movie also broke the midnight opening record for IMAX theaters, grossing $2 million on a record number of IMAX screens. FULL POST The story behind Kate Hudson's baby name, Bingham HawnUnconventional celebrity baby names (we're still waiting on some star to say they went with John or Jennifer) always seem to spark the question of where the inspiration came from. New parent Matt Bellamy, who welcomed a son with fiancee Kate Hudson last Saturday, explained that their pick of Bingham "Bing" Hawn Bellamy is simply keeping it in the family. The Muse musician tweeted, "For those wondering, Bingham is my mum's maiden name and Bing Russell was Kurt's dad. Family connections all round!" Mila Kunis is officially going to Marine ballMila Kunis is putting this story to rest once and for all. Earlier this week it was reported that the 27-year-old star of next week's "Friends with Benefits" had accepted Sgt. Scott Moore's YouTube invitation to attend this year's Marine Corps Ball on November 18. As Fox411 reported, the YouTube invite was brought up during an interview, and at the time, Kunis said she'd do it. And then, just as quickly as that spread, so did the rumor that she really wasn't, because she had work to do. Michael Bublé: These seniors are so effing cute!Feel proud of yourselves, members of the Clark Retirement Community in Grand Rapids, Michigan, because you made Michael Bublé smile! The sassy seniors did a "LipDub" of Bublé's famous "Feeling Good" cover on YouTube and the Canadian singer was tickled when CNN brought it to his attention. (We already know how much he enjoys seeing other people perform his music.) "I love this video," Bublé told CNN. "I look at all of them with great reverence. It made me really happy and they're so effing cute." FULL POST Chris Colfer learned he's leaving 'Glee' from TwitterIf you found out that Chris Colfer isn't returning to "Glee" for season 4 from the Internet, you've got something in common with the actor - that's how he, too, discovered his eventual departure. On Wednesday, "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy told the Hollywood Reporter that the characters Colfer, Lea Michele and Cory Monteith portray are "graduating" after season 3. “We’ve never done anything by the book,” Murphy said. “We made that decision and I involved Chris and Lea and they thought that was a good idea. They both trust the writing and trust me and felt that it would be great to have an open and closed experience for them to go out while they were on top.” Emmy nominee Colfer didn't seem to know that it would be so soon, as he told Access Hollywood that he learned of the news on Wednesday from Twitter. |
