Brad Pitt: Raising Six Kids is Hard
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Weddings, Celebrity Babies, Child Stars,
Brad Pitt admits looking after six children is tougher than starring in action movies.
The Hollywood heartthrob - who raises, Maddox, 11, Pax, nine, Zahara, seven, Shiloh, six, and four-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne, with fiancee Angelina Jolie - gets a lot more bruises being hands-on father than he ever did doing the stunts for new film Killing Them Softly.
"Does it ache? Sure. The knees have gone, the back is crunchy. Getting the kids ready for school is every bit as painful as anything I had to do in this film," he said.
Brad and Angelina are in the process of organizing their wedding, but he admits best friend George Clooney won't be his best man because "he doesn't believe in institutions." However, Brad has confessed they haven't set a date yet, even though the children are pressuring them to do it, and could tie the knot in the UK, after spending the summer in London: "We are going to do it. We haven't set a date yet, though. We are getting a lot of pressure from our kids. We could do it in the UK. It has been such an amazing summer here, with all your events - the Jubilee and the Olympics. I've watched everything."

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Pregnancies, Parties,
Sienna Miller held a baby shower in London on Sunday.
The actress and rumored fiance Tom Sturridge were seen leaving the shower with a friend, who carried boxes which appeared to house cakes and balloons for her baby, due later this summer.
Sienna wore a flowing dress and sandals and witnesses say she had a "pregnant mother's glow" about her as she smiled as she left the party. The couple had just flown back from the Cannes film festival in France, where Tom had been promoting his latest film On The Road.
In April, sienna spoke to Vogue magazine about her pregnancy, saying, "I'm feeling fine. It's all progressing nicely and it's very exciting. I'm in my second trimester, so I'm 'I-can-talk-about-it' pregnant."

Kim Kardashian Slaps Rihanna Ban on Kanye
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Dating, Rivalries, Rumors,
Kim Kardashian banned Rihanna from Kanye West's dressing room during his recent London concerts.
The reality TV starlet doesn't want her 34-year-old boyfriend hanging out with other women on his own and with Rihanna's flirtatious reputation, she wasn't taking any chances when she wasn't at The O2 arena for his Watch the Throne tour shows with Jay-Z.
Kim is believed to have not been a fan of the "You Da One" singer since she was romantically linked to her brother Rob Kardashian several months ago. "Kim doesn't want women near him unless she is there - even friends. The fact Rihanna was linked to Rob probably didn't help," a source said.
However, it's not just Rihanna that Kim, 31, is jealous of. She is also said to have ordered him to leave a party in London last week after he spent too much time with other revellers instead of her. "Kim was all over Kanye at the start, but when he started to mix with other people she had a stern word and took him away from the party. He followed her orders with minimum fuss. He knows the deal," a source said.

Will.i.am says carrying the Olympic torch was a dream come true. The Black Eyed Peas star was chosen as one of the 8,000 inspirational people to become a torchbearer as the flame makes its way across the UK ahead of the London Games this summer and he admits it was a thrill to be involved.
Speaking in Taunton, Devon, South West England, where he carried the torch today, Will.i.am said, "It feels like a dream. This is something you've always seen growing up so to be here today in the UK with all the hard work it took me to be able to get to this level and do that, it's just pursuing my dreams. And now I'm in the UK and running with the torch and it's great."
After running with the torch, the "I Gotta Feeling" hitmaker then took to his Twitter account to speak of his joy at being involved: "A great memory in the town of tauton today...#tweetthetorch... Taking off in the hip.hop.copter...i loved tauton...great people...#tweetthetorch (sic)"
The torch arrived in Britain from Greece on Friday with soccer star David Beckham being one of the people to help bring it into the country.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Planning UK Move
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Rumors,
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are planning to move to England for two years. The couple - who lived in the London suburb of Richmond last year while Brad shot World War Z - want to return to the pretty town while Angelina shoots three England-based movies back-to-back.
Filming starts on drama Maleficent next month, then the mother-of-six will join Brad in Ridley Scott's The Counselor before working on a Danny Boyle movie.
"They loved it when they were in the UK last year. They like the culture and are happy for their children to receive schooling here. They think Richmond is a beautiful part of the world. Angelina starts work on her next film, Maleficent, in about three weeks so Brad will look after their brood over summer as he won't start work on the Ridley Scott film until September," a source said.
But with such a hectic work schedule line up, the loved-up pair - who announced their engagement on Friday - still haven't decided when to tie the knot. "No date has been set yet but they'll probably go back to their home in France to get married," the insider said, talking to The Sun.

An "overzealous" fan has allegedly broken into Simon Cowell's home.
The accused is said to have entered the 52-year-old music mogul's $14 million west London house on Saturday night through a downstairs window, before going to lie on his bed while Simon was in the lounge. The woman is believed to have been caught and detained by Simon's staff and security while they waited for police to arrive.
According to a source, The X Factor boss told a friend, "It was an absolutely terrifying experience. Seeing this woman standing there in my house was like something out of a horror movie. It was frightening but I'm going to take it as a warning. In some ways I've been lucky. You have to look on the positive side because it could have been a whole lot worse. I now know that I need to improve my security."

David and Victoria to Sell Beckingham Palace?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Sports, Rumors,
David and Victoria Beckham are planning to sell their British mansion.
The couple bought the $28.7 million estate - dubbed Beckingham Palace - in Hertfordshire shortly after tying the knot in 1999. Having relocated to Los Angeles in 2007 so David could play football for LA Galaxy, the Beckhams - who are worth more than $255 million - reportedly want to sell off their properties in England and France and focus on life in America.
"David and Victoria have been wanting to sell up for a couple of years now but the timing was never right. They didn't want to lose money, putting their homes up for sale during a slump in the property market. So, after getting it valued two years ago, decided to hold off until now," a source said.
They are believed to have lavished $28.7 million on the 22-acre home - which they bought for $4 million - so that it now features a petting zoo, indoor and outdoor pools, studio, gym and tennis courts.
