Christina Shows Off Her New-Mom Body

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

christina-aguilera-post-pregnancy-body.jpg

It looks like Christina Aguilera is one of few celebs not opting for the “post baby touchup” that starlets like Nicole Richie look like they’ve had. Still carrying a bit of baby weight and hefting around even larger (if that’s even possible!) breasts than she had when she was pregnant, Christina looks the way most new moms look … tired, more out of shape than they’d like, and happy.

The ever-present drag makeup just serves as a reminder that this is not a regular new mom, but a pop star new mom.

I’m quite proud of her, actually. I expected her to turn up like Nicole Richie, looking like she’d never even been pregnant, her body back to it’s super-petite pre-baby size. But she once again proves she’s much more normal than she’s given credit for.

When I go to the airport, I’m in sweats and most likely haven’t showered. When Dita Von Teese heads to the airport, it’s like a fashion show! (source: Just Jared)

Patrick Swayze was checked into the hospital over the weekend for a “serious gastro-intestinal procedure”, but sources close to the actor say he’s home now and resting comfortably. Wonder what was wrong? (source: Hollywood Grind)

Despite being proud of her 32G’s, Jordan’s looking to just be a mommie now, I guess. She recently had them reduced, and while she claims she wanted them to go down to a 32C, they’re still at a 32F. Poor girl! (source: D Listed)

Jamie Lynn Leaving Her Mom?

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

e_spears_325.jpg

Jamie Lynn Spears might just be getting sick of her momma! Rumor has it she’s looking to move to LA before she has her baby, wanting to live with her father and get into movies as soon as she’s lost her baby weight. She may also be jealous of all the attention her big sister is getting, and thinks that moving to LA will help get her on more tabloid covers.

In reality, if she were spotted out and about with her baby bump, she’d be almost guarranteed to make several tabloid covers, but it’s probably not in her best interest to follow in her sister’s footsteps.

As to whether or not her mother or father is a better parental figure in this moment, I think what the courts have decided speaks volumes. Despite Lynne Spears being the more vocal parent during all of Britney’s drama, it’s her father that’s been given custodial rights. While Lynne’s been trying to get a parenting book published, it’s Jamie that’s been doing the taking care of his kids, it would appear.

So if Jamie Lynne wants to go live with him, she can’t be any worse of than she is with controlling Lynne!

Angelina Jolie left LAX yesterday solo, to head to Jordan for some UNHCR work. Here’s hoping if she *is* pregnant she’s taking precausions. And hopefully Brad’s got some extra nanny’s on board for the time she’s gone. Four kids by yourself is hard to handle! (source: Angelina Jolie Watch)

Paris Hilton sat down with Parade and hammed it up, yet again. This time she let us all in on her little hockey secret … she’s apparently really good at ice hockey, even playing defense! Sure, Paris. Plus, she “confirmed” she’ll be a guest on The L Word next season. Making it the first time since the show’s inception fans across the globe are hoping the show is cancelled after this season is done. (source: Just Jared)

Looks like we’ll be seeing more of Lindsay in print than just in UK Glamour; she’s also been paid $2 million to write her autobiography by Simon & Schuster. Maybe. The longer this story sits out there on the internet, the more convoluted it becomes. For now, file it under “unlikely”. (source: Cele|bitchy)

Lindsay Lohan Opens Up In UK Glamour

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

I keep trying to like Lindsay Lohan, to get behind her and support her. I even rented “I Know Who Killed Me” and tried to see some merit to it (besides those stripper scenes. someone missed her calling!). But every time I’m almost on board, Lindsay goes and does something like talk to UK Glamour, and ruins it all for me.

Without any projects in the works, Lindsay’s had to resort to selling photos of herself to “Make ends meet”, and now she’s spilling her guts to magazines to try to drum up some new interest in herself. Here’s a few choice quotes:

‘I’m fine being alone during the day, but I hate being alone at night. I like having friends around me, but now I’d much rather be at home,’ she says, pointing out that she now suddenly has more hours of the day to fill, which she tries to do by writing in her journal and watching TV.

‘That’s not to say I’ll never go to a club again,’ she says, ‘because I’d be lying.’

Finally, asked what she believes is the biggest misconception others have about her, Lohan replies, ‘that I don’t have my head in the right place. That, and probably that I’m not a good person … because actually I am.’

“If I’d been with every man I’ve been linked with I’d probably be dead by now! Generally speaking, my friends are much worse - I’m the goody-goody one by comparison. I’ve had to grow up fast. I’ve had a lot of responsibility from a young age.�

On what or who she is allergic to aside from dogs:
“Liars and mean people. I’m a Cancerian so I’m sensitive and emotional, but very honest - so I don’t like liars. Also I don’t understand people who are mean for no reason.�

That last quote might be my favorite, if only because she calls herself a “cancerian” … it’s Cancer, bitch!

At any rate, Lindsay’s back to saying she’s learned her lessons, that she’s totally grown up and has her head on straight, and that her experiences are just like everyone else’s growing up years. I know for a fact that my “growing up years” were NOTHING LIKE THAT, despite how hard I may have partied.

Also, filling your time with watching tv and journaling? How about going out on job interviews or trying to get modelling gigs?

Bottom line: I hate that her life is so publicized. It’s got to make it hard to lead any sort of normal post-rehab life. But I have lost any sense of feeling bad for her, because she could choose to lay low, work on new projects, instead of heading off to Capri and making out with several men while paparazzi are present. If she’s upset at the things people say about her, she could change her public appearance. Unfortunately, that’s part of being a celebrity today.

The Bluths Are Coming To The Big Screen!

It’s still in the rumor stage, but it sounds like Arrested Development will be coming to a theater near you! Jeffery Tambor stopped into a radio station recently and told them that Ron Howard has been hinting at bringing the banana stand back in business and picking up where the tv show left off … with Michael and George Michael heading off to Mexico on the family boat. If this actually happens, I’ll be taking off work to be there the day it opens!

With it being Super Bowl Sunday and all, I’m going to be tied up most of the afternoon and the evening. But before I go, here’s some gossip to get you through your Sunday.

Songstress Lily Allen and her boyfriend Ed Simons have split, and just weeks after she miscarried. Poor thing! Apparently she’s throwing herself into her music to cope. (source: Hollywood Grind)

The Spice Girls have taken themselves off tour! The group have cited “family commitments” as reason to not finish their tour, but I’m betting it has more to do with their lack of ticket sales. Time for these ladies to find new jobs. (source: Just Jared)

In Britney News: her father has been given custodial rights over her finances and affairs, which is a good thing. Sam Lufti is super pissed, not just because he’s been cut off financially, but also because he’s been slapped with a 22-day restraining order keeping him away from Britney! (source: Cele|bitchy)

George Clooney might just be settling down after all! He’s officially started moving 29-year-old girlfriend Sarah Larson into his Hollywood Hills home. (source: D Listed)

Katharine McPhee got married to her boyfriend Nick Cokas over the weekend! (source: Hollywood Grind)

Brad and Angie showed up at the Santa Barbara Film Festival with Angie wearing another super-flowy outfit!!! Althogh, with at least one of the pictures NOT looking like she’s got a baby bump, who knows what gossip columns are going to be saying Monday morning about it all! (source: Brad Pitt Watch)

I swear I have a ton of Really Important Things To Say ™, but right now all I can think about is that it’s Friday and in a few hours I’ll be having drinks and dinner with one of my bestest friends. So all you get is this link list. Again. I know, I know, bad Robyn. Where’s the commentary, yo?!

First Lindsay went to rehab, then Paris went to jail. Now Britney’s in a psych ward. But Eva Mendes proves all things old are new again, by checking into Cirque Lodge for an undisclosed issue. Someone wants to be like Lindsay when she grows up! (source: D Listed)

What better way to celebrate your boyfriend’s tv show anniversary than to make a video with Matt Damon? In Sarah Silverman’s opinion? None. (source: Just Jared)

Freaking Brilliant!! Mollygood claims Lindsay Lohan has stepped in to save Starbucks in Britney’s absence! I love it!

Jennifer Lopez is in the hospital birthing her twins? Nope! Turns out she’s in New York bikini shopping. Someone’s on the post-birth lipo plan for sure!

According to Courtney Love, there is a short list of celebs who are “cool enough” to have been strapped to a gurney. That list is herself, Marilyn Monroe and one Britney Spears. Marilyn is rolling over in her grave at the comparison that makes! (source: D Listed)

Amy Winehouse’s detox isn’t going so well for her, it would seem. She got so dehydrated during the detox process that she had to be admitted to a hospital and put on a fluids drip! (source: D Listed)

It’s not a happy time for Scientolgoy, that’s for sure. First there’s “anonymous”, and now they’re getting mysterious white powder packages delivered! (source: Mollygood)

Katie Holmes is FINALLY denying the rumors that Chris Klein is truly Suri’s daddy. I still think he is. (source: Tom Cruise Watch)
