Superstar Couples

Okay, okay. So not another post of the famous Hollywood couple, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.

The two were spotted on the streets of Manhattan, New York, last Thursday. Young Maddox’s school, the exclusive Lycee Francais, is just located there. This time the actress was wearing all black and beige ballerinas compared to her beau’s grey outfit.

Despite ugly reports that they are going separate ways, the two simply manage to appear very much together. In one photograph Brad showed how gentleman he is by opening the door for his love.

They might not hold hands in front of the paparazzi’s expensive cameras but can you tell me is this the picture of a troubled couple?

Recently, Angie told Cosmopolitan (via Entertainmentwise) that she only had sex with four men and married the two of them. Still, doubting Thomases couldn’t believe that the actress is telling the truth. She is often portrayed as a sex bomb, a man eater, who can break your heart whether you are a man or a woman.

We know the chapter between her and ex-lover Jenny Shimizu, who is very sure that her attachment to Brad is just a facade and that in the end she would return to her old wild ways.

Enter Bai Ling.

Angie’s latest admirer is the Chinese-American actress, whose first American film was the cult favourite “The Crow” with the late actor Brandon Lee as the avenging angel.

The naturalised American, who admitted in interview that she has had also affairs with women, said that she and Angelina had a “spark” when they worked together in two movies, “Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow” in 2004 and the documentary “A Place In Time.”

“I felt this energy between us, when we look at each other there’s an energy, an attraction. Her eyes transfer a sexual energy to me that makes her irresistible.”

She also mentioned that Angelina felt the same connection too.

“Angelina said, ‘Next time we’ll play lovers.’ We could have hooked up, but it just wasn’t the right time or place. But she told me, ‘My heart’s open to you.’ She is like me. She is totally open sexually.”

And now that the Angie and Brad have gotten together, she was also hoping to bed Brad together with Angie.

“I’ve always thought Brad was the sexiest man on the planet. So now that Brad and Angelina are together, now maybe I could experience both at the same time!”

Menage a trois! Way to go Bai!

I am still reeling from sickness (flu and colds) that clouds my mind. Nevertheless, I am excited to give you the latest happenings in the Tinseltown when it comes to celebrity couples.

“The Darjeeling Limited” hasn’t landed yet to Austrian shores but is breaking news in the United States. One of the leading actors Adrien Brody was spotted at the French restaurant La Grenouille together with his girlfriend, the Spanish actress Elsa Pataky on Thursday.

The polyglot beauty, whose mother is from Romania, speaks English, her native tongue Spanish and is also fluent in French and Romanian. She accompanied Adrien to New York to attend Louis Vuitton’s exclusive dinner to honour “Darjeeling” director Wes Anderson, the one who is responsible for the epic “The Royal Tenenbaums.”

The two hooked up in 2006 after Adrien broke up with his then girlfriend of three years Michelle Dupont. During this time the award-winning actor was rumoured to have dated Keira Knightley. His breakthrough came in 2002 for his superb portrayal of the Polish-Jewish pianist Władysław Szpilman, a Holocaust movie “The Pianist” directed by Roman Polanski. Not only he won an Oscar won an Oscar he was also the first-ever American actor to have garnered its French equivalent, Cesar Awards.

After more than a year, Adrien and Elsa are still very much in love.

The anti-feminists would have a field day reading Madonna and husband Guy Ritchie’s exploits. Imagine, they could finally prove their absurd theories about the myth between career woman and housewife? That feminism destroys the traditional women role (taking care of the family and the house) and emasculating the men. Or the equality between a man and a woman is against the nature.

Personally, I am grateful that women’s emancipation exists. Thanks for all our grandmothers, mothers and aunts who exerted a great effort to make this concept a reality.

Discrimination against women unfortunately happens even in the most successful country. But, there’s a strong but.

As much as I despise physical violence among the female population by their partners or the unfair treatment of the society towards them, I don’t find it admirable when they, just because they are women or the one who brings home the bacon, treat their men like nothing. Anyone who treats a human being like dirt regardless of sex is not worthy at all.

I am not saying that Madonna has a habit of belittling her husband. Or Guy has a problem with a successful woman like the trend-setting superstar slash pop icon slash one-time fashion designers, and so on and so forth.

She must have huge sense of humour and he isn’t hurrying up to take over the world even though he has three projects in a row.

Talks persist that these two people have a problem on who wears the trousers in the family. And the press loves spotting these troubles. Daily Mail is one of them.

For all his mockney posturings, Guy has always felt slightly inferior about his wife’s massive earning power and domineering nature. Madonna on the other hand is said to enjoy occasionally bating him on that point. And this latest birthday gift - a strap-on - is, it seems, no exception.

A photographer snapped the couple coming out from the fashionable Claridge’s Restaurant to celebrate Guy’s 39th birthday. Madonna was spotted carrying a see-through bag and inside is Ann Summers Purple Penetrator (a sort of strap-on dildo). The writer immediately suggested that it is a sign of who really takes over the driving seat.

Even the website that carries the cheeky sex toy has the same thoughts.

We wonder what it is about the Penetrator that Madge, or is it Guy, finds so appealing? Is it the six inch dildo (she’s a powerful woman of course), the choice of multispeed (we know she likes a change) of the adjustable waist and back strap (she is a slender lady)? Looks like the couple, who got wed in December 2000, are having a good go at spicing up their marriage and in the pic, released by Holy Moly, Madge is looking a little sheepish to say the least. We wonder if Guy is so keen for her to take the driving seat? Well…he’s probably used to it!

Is he?

What’s up with Joshua Jackson? It seems that the actor is content accompanying girlfriend Diane Kruger instead of making movies. While Diane is busy promoting herself in Europe and the United States, Joshua isn’t hurrying to make more than one film a year.

The actress was in Venice with “I’m Not There” cast Richard Gere.

On Friday night, Diane and Joshua were spotted leaving the trendy Waverly Inn in New York City, a restaurant owned by Graydon Carter of Vanity Fair.

Other celebs include the Waverly Inn Habitué Demi Moore. Sisters Jessica and Ashlee Simpson were there too.

She might be on the “say-no-to-diva list” of the famous surreal photographer David La Chapelle and had survived the ire of the traditional Muslims in Malaysia but Gwen Stefani has bounced back.

Yesterday she launched her new spring collection, overseeing the models and making sure her ideas are well received by the audience at Tent at Bryant Park, New York City. While her husband, the rock star Gavin Rossdale and ex-Bush front man, took care of their son, Kingston James.

Can’t help it but my crush on Gavin surfaces again. Not because his profile reminds me of my own husband but it is nice to see that he doesn’t mind being the house man and Gwen’s fame overshadows his.

We need more men like Gavin. Yes?

What a hectic life it is to be a star. Is it not?

One day you are in Chicago shooting a film. The next day you are in France promoting it. Of course, this happens.

Angelina Jolie after wrapping up her latest project, “Wanted,” accompanied partner Brad Pitt to Deauville, France to take part in the 33rd Deauville American Film Festival, a yearly film festival devoted to American cinema, taking place since 1975 in Deauville, France. Fresh from their trip to Venice, the couple also graced the Biennale attendance.

Compared to my friends, I wasn’t really a fan of Emmy-nominated “Doogie Howser, M.D.” So imagine their surprise when news broke out that their beloved teen prodigy doctor forced to come out from the closet due to media’s pressure. It was called “lanced,” a term created by Reichen Lehmkuhl, the boyfriend of ‘N Sync star Lance Bass.

Neil Patrick Harris was spotted here with his Broadway boyfriend, David Burtka, taking a peaceful walk with their dogs.

This is not the first time the couple was seen walking their pets.

The couple met on the set of “How I Met Your Mother.” Last November, there was a report that Neil and David had a romantic relationship via www.Canada.com. Later on, he went on to reveal that he never denied that he was gay. He just didn’t have the need to tell the public.

The public eye has always been kind to me, and until recently I have been able to live a pretty normal life. Now it seems there is speculation and interest in my private life and relationships. So, rather than ignore those who choose to publish their opinions without actually talking to me, I am happy to dispel any rumors or misconceptions and am quite proud to say that I am a very content gay man living my life to the fullest and feel most fortunate to be working with wonderful people in the business I love.

It is up and about at the Venice Film 64th Venice Film Festival, a.k.a. Biennale.

Like every splashy movie festival, Biennale isn’t short of glamour and is regarded as one of the institutions in the film industry.

The opening ceremony took place at the Palazzo del Cinema around 7 p.m., and was hosted by Ambra Angiolini, an Italian actress. “Atonement” by UK director Joe Wright was the first film to be screened in competition. This is the second time Joe and Keira worked together. They did “Pride and Prejudice” before.

According to Hollywood Reporter, the film got quite a “strong” reception. It stars Keira Knightley, who is the darling of the press at the moment. She tagged along her boyfriend Rupert Friend.

Weight shouldn’t be an issue. It is a matter of a personal choice. As long as you are happy with it then go for it. But I am sorry to say that the appearance of Keira and her bf Rupert tandem is a big exaggerating. They look unhealthy to me.

One has to be careful with Cameron Diaz. I guess.

Look at Demi Moore. Is she spying on Ashton Kutcher after curious lips reported his eventual meeting with Cameron and three other male friends? That’s how it appeared.

One witness said that the crew “was seated discreetly in the back” and feasting on a 400-dollar bottle of Mouton Rothschild 9. The source looks like a wine connoisseur that he or she was able to spot it. But the wine is simply über expensive! A good wine doesn’t have to be this costly. What’s in a name, really?

Anyway, even though there are paparazzi rumors that Cam and singer John Mayer are having almost daily dates, Demi has to check out her husband on the set of his new comedy “What Happens in Vegas.” Or so it seems.

Whatever. The movie sounds like crap, anyway.

The paparazzi caught up with the couple as they looked around the location at the Grammercy Park in New York City yesterday.

While Demi doesn’t seem to be bothered of having babies with him, her man has reportedly written a fashion advice in the form of an essay to Harpers Bazaar via Hollyscoop.

One of his tips: “When it comes to getting dressed, men are a little bit more important than handbags but less important than shoes. At any rate, we are merely accessories.”

Tell me if you agree.

Jude can’t keep his pants on. A pretty boy like him has to have a regular supply of girls, whatever size or background. He shags whoever comes his way. Man!

Guess what, British heartthrob Jude Law was spotted dating a German actress. He flew to Germany just to be with her. The 26-year-old Susan Hoecke, who was born in the former communist part of Berlin, is known in Germany via her teenie TV series, “18: Allein unter Mädchen” (18: Alone amongst the girls”).

According to Daily Mail, Jude, 34, strolled through a park with the starlet and spent a romantic evening together enjoying a cosy candlelit dinner at a trendy Japanese eatery, Shiro I Shiro. Jude played the classy gentleman style after Susan insisted they split the bill two ways.

“Jude and Susan seemed really happy and were pretty tactile with one another,” said an onlooker.

“Over dinner, initially they both appeared pretty nervous and fidgety but, after tucking into a second bottle of wine, they really loosened up, giggling, at times, loudly and uproariously.

“Susan is a strikingly beautiful girl and not surprisingly, Jude could barely keep his eyes off her.”

The two have known each other for two years, when Susan was asked if she was dating Jude.

She might be a complete unknown in Britain and the US, but her TV series is breaking through in the German-speaking world. Susan is said to be a former Miss Germany and has rumoured to have dated Ben Affleck. It was documented that she stayed for half a year in the USA to fulfill her modelling job. Aside from her native German, she also speaks English, Spanish and French.

Susan admits that she loves variation in her relationship:

“I like it being dominant. But If ever I am always the dominant in the affair it becomes boring afterward.”

Or, that she loves challenges.

“I want to fight for a man. But when the man tries too hard or he makes too many compliments, that turns me off.”

She is the latest found of Jude. Apart from Susan, he also dated Cameron Diaz, the American magazine editor Kim Hersov and of course, Sienna Miller. He also had a brief liaison with his children’s nanny that caused his relationship with Sienna to break apart. There was even a report that he and and former wife Sadie Frost had a session of partner-swapping cum orgy with Pearl Lowe and her longtime partner Danny Goffey, Supergrass drummer. The father of Pearl’s daughter Daisy is none other Gavin Rossdale.

Jude has three children with Sadie–Rafferty, 10, Iris, six, and son Rudy, four.

The actor was claimed to have a massive grin on his face as he and and Susan left his hotel room together last Sunday.

What a difference a day makes…

“3:10 to Yuma” is a remake of the award-winning Glenn Ford film in 1957 with the same title, from a short story written by Elmore Leonard.

Lead actors Russell Crowe and Christian Bale showed up with their stunning wives at the Los Angeles premiere yesterday at the Mann National Westwood in California.

The 43-year-old Australian heartthrob married fellow Aussie actress and singer Danielle Spencer on his 39th birthday. They met while filming “The Crossing” in 1990and have two sons–Charles “Charlie” Spencer Crowe, born December 21, 2003 and Tennyson Spencer Crowe, who was born on July 7, 2006.

Christian, 33, is happily married to Sandra “Sibi” Blazic, who is four years his senior. She is a one-time model, make-up artist, and personal assistant to Winona Ryder, who happened to be Christian’s co-star on “Little Women.” They have a named Emmaline, who was born on March 27, 2005 in Santa Monica, California.

Other stars include Peter Fonda and Ben Foster.

I still don’t dig Matt Damon’s Bourne series, his own version of James Bond, but you have to take credit for the man who wrote and starred in “The Good Will Hunting.” It was really a nice movie.

So, the latest installment of Bourne Trilogy is now out dubbed “Bourne Ultimatum.” This time without German actress Franka Potente. The cast attended yesterday night’s London premiere at the Odeon Leicester Square.

Matt is pictured together with his wife, the Argentine-born Luciana Bozan Barroso, whom he met in Miami where she was working as a bartender.

The two married in a private civil ceremony on December 9, 2005, in New York City Hall. Damon has become stepfather to Luciana’s young daughter, Alexia, from her previous marriage. The couple’s first child together, daughter Isabella, was born on June 11, 2006.

The actor previously dated Winona Ryder, Odessa Whitmire, Billy Bob Thorton’s personal assistant and Ben Affleck and “Good Will Hunting” co-star Minnie Driver. Their breakup spawned an urban myth when Damon reportedly ended the affair via “The Oprah Winfrey Show.” Both actors have repeatedly denied this. According to reports, Damon mentioned that he was “sick and tired” of hearing the story, saying it was false.

Flynet paparazzi spotted North Londoner Amy Winehouse and hubby Blake Fielder in SoHo, New York City on Wednesday shopping at American Apparel, sipping some Jamba Juice, and then checking out a spa.

Despite the many reports from gossip and tabloid sites, Amy is not going to grace Anna Wintour’s Vogue for September. Jezebel.com has this to say:

Despite what you may have read in the Daily Mirror or on Jossip, Amy Winehouse will not be appearing on the September cover of U.S. Vogue or anywhere in the magazine, for that matter. Bummer, right? A Vogue rep, however, informs us that in fact, Amy will be in the Conde Nast supplement ‘Fashion Rocks’ so we guess there’s that to look forward to. (Or, not!). Anyway, later this afternoon we’ll be posting our interpretation of what a Winehouse/Vogue image would look like. If Anna Wintour had the balls to put her on the cover, that is.

Big-haired Amy, a “botched” fashion icon?

Academy-award winning actress Marisa Tomei (1992 Best Supporting Actress for the comedy “My Cousin Vinny“) was spotted in a New York book shop with her boyfriend. Looks like the actress, who was more bankable in the 1990s and early 2000, is really keen on not being seen much. Perhaps, in order to continue her studies at the New York University? In a 2005 interview, she said that she had aspirations to return to NYU in the near future to study civics. She is not that active anymore and is pretty staying behind the limelight.

Her boyfriend reminds me of a mature actor Jake Gyllenhaal. She dated Robert Downey (her costar in the romantic movie “Only You” and Dana Ashbrook in the past.

Hopping for books, I wonder what she got.

After surviving the wedding hoopla, Eva Longoria and Tony Parker have been spotted leaving Cafe Med Sunset Plaza Drive, an Italian-styled restaurant in the heart of LA, yesterday. Every press person lauded the couple’s way of playing with the media, that is the way Eva handled and managed their nuptials like a real A-list star.
Hopefully, their marriage wouldn’t be a Tinseltown cliche and wouldn’t end up as one of the most expensive divorces in the Hollywood history.
