Natalie PortmanJust as Daniel Radcliffe professes his want to venture into fatherhood, Natalie Portman reveals she wants to be a mother.

The 28-year-old actress feels she has grown up and is finally responsible enough to settle down and start a family.

“I feel like I’m coming into my womanhood, and I’m less afraid or maybe I’m just getting old. I think about having kids, but I think you can’t plan for that sort of thing. It’s not like you can work at it.”

The Star Wars actress recently played “strong” and maternal Grace Cahill in the war drama Brothers, alongside Tobey Maguire and Jake Gyllenhaal. Natalie has reconsidered her views on motherhood since starring in the movie.

“It was such a fantastic opportunity because so many parts written for females my age are just like the cute, girlish love interest. To get to play a real woman who’s really strong and a good mother was really a great opportunity. It was not that challenging to be mother-ish because I have the most maternal mom in the world. So I’ve had a role model for my entire life.”

Daniel Radcliffe ready to become a parentDespite his young age, Daniel Radcliffe is already pining for kids!

The Harry Potter actor is determined to settle down and start a family and plans to take time away from the film industry when he does become a parent.

“I’ve got kids to have at some point. They’re going to keep me busy if I do - which I hope I do at some point. I’m not planning on it soon, but that’s one of the things I’m really looking forward to doing.”

The 20-year-old actor - who is in an on/off relationship with Laura O’Toole - is not the only Harry Potter star wondering about life after the film series finishes.

Daniel’s co-star Rupert Grint - who portrays Harry’s best friend Ron Weasley - is scared about spending the rest of his life in the real world: “It is quite scary when this all ends because we’re stepping out into the real world - it is quite a bubble I suppose, we’ve had these films to do every year and it’s become quite a routine. I’m definitely going to miss it. It’s been a great 10 years. I am quite keen to move on and see what else is out there.”

Suri CruiseKatie Holmes spends $25,000 a month on her daughter’s clothes (let’s not fool ourselves—Suri Cruise is Katie’s career now).

The Romantics actress is reportedly determined for three-year-old Suri - her child with husband Tom Cruise - to be the “most fashionable kid in Hollywood,” and her recent purchases for the youngster have included a $5,000 ruby pendant and two dresses priced at $1,500 each.

A source told Britain’s Grazia, “Dressing Suri in amazing outfits has become Katie’s favorite hobby. She’ll scour the internet and Beverly Hills shops to find items and get inspiration for different looks. One of Katie’s favorite looks is 80s-inspired - she puts Suri in leggings and long sweatshirts or bright dresses. Suri loves getting involved and choosing things too.”

Katie caused controversy recently when pictures were published of the star and Suri, with the youngster wearing a pair of high-heeled shoes, and the insider admitted that the tot had problems walking in them. The source added, “Suri can’t always walk in her heels, sometimes she just steps right out of them.”

Shakira with boyfriend Antonio de la RuaShe Wolf

Shakira wants to have a baby.

The 32-year-old singer, who has been engaged to Antonio de la Rua, 36, for the last four years, admits that her biological clock is ticking and she’s desperate to start a family.

“I’m dying to have a baby. We both are. I’d like two and Antonio would like three. So probably after my next album, which comes out next year. I don’t think it could be sooner because in 2010 I’ll be touring as well. In fact, my biological clock is already ticking and I don’t know how to describe it. It’s just becoming a physical need now.”

The pop star, who met Antonio nine years ago in a restaurant in Argentina, knew straight away he was “The One”: “The minute I walked in, I saw him sitting, and I thought, ‘That man is for me, he’s the man of my life.’ I kept staring at him until I got to meet him that night. And then I just followed my intuition and everything worked out. Frankly, meeting him that night was like winning the lottery.”

Although Shakira is engaged, she doesn’t plan to marry Antonio anytime soon. She said, “I think it’s more romantic to be that eternal girlfriend. We’re happy the way things are. Our relationship is strong and steady.”

Some families have the looks. Others have style. Then there are those who make us want to cry because they’re blessed with both.

Now, I don’t know about you—but I can’t recall the last time my husband and I looked runway ready, let alone color-coordinated, the last time we walked off an airplane. But , Gabriel Aubry and their daughter Nahla somehow managed to pull it off during their flight to LAX yesterday.

Is there something besides free alcohol that I’m missing up in first class?

Suri Cruise drinks from a bottle in New York

It looks as if parents Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise spoil their daughter Suri Cruise a little too much, allowing her to continue to drink from a bottle… despite the fact that she’s already 3 years-old. Here I thought that the heels were bad for the tot!

Snapped up by the paparazzi on the set of Katie’s new movie, The Romantics, little Suri doesn’t seem to mind drinking from the bottle; however, experts say that she should have been weaned from it years ago:

“She should have been weaned off the bottle by the time she was one year old… By the time kids are nine months old, they have the physical development and mouth coordination necessary to be able to drink out of a sippy cup or a cup with straw. That development comes pretty early,” said Dr. Jennifer Shu, a pediatrician and co-author of Food Fights.

With all of the money between the two actors, one would think that they could afford a how-to parenting book or two.
