Superstar Couples

Larry Birkhead and his daughter Dannielynn spent Saturday May 30, 2009 having fun at a Studio City Scott Baio charity event. Dannielynn is the daughter of the late Anna Nicole Smith who died in 2007. Larry Birkhead is a single father to little Dannielynn who is the spitting image of her famous mother. One reporter grabbed a quick interview with Larry Birkhead, here’s the clip:

Things sure aren’t settling down for the Gosselins. Jon & Kate Gosselin who star with their eight children in the TLC reality show “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ have been plastered all over the magazine and tabloid covers for the past month, and it’s only getting worse.

During their season premiere episode of “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ the couple admitted that they are having major marriage problems by saying that they don’t know where their relationship is heading. But Kate Gosselin’s brother Kevin Kreider and his wife Jodi are telling the public that their marriage was over 6 months ago.

Uncle Kevin and Aunt Jodi have appeared on many of the “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ episodes while they were watching the sextuplets. Kate often criticized “Aunt Jodi’s” babysitting skills on the show when the children returned home. In one episode Kate (who is known for being a perfectionist) freaked out after Jodie gave the kids bubble gum and even threw out one of the kids teddy bears because there was gum stuck on it.

About a year ago Kate Gosselin stopped asking the couple to babysit the children and Aunt Jodi and Uncle Kevin say they miss their nieces and nephews. They are also worried about their well being when they are spending so much time living their lives in front of the TLC cameras.

In a recent CBS Early Show interview with Harry Smith Kevin and Jodi Kreider voiced their concerns saying that what started out as an innocent TV documentary has evolved into a money making venture and that Jon and Kate care more about the fame and fortune than they do about what is best for their eight children. They even go as far as to say that the couple “are lost.” Check out the CBS Early Show interview to find out what else Kate’s brother and sister-in-law have to say about their way of life:

Former wild child Nicole Richie, 27, appeared on CNN’s Larry King Live show with her father Lionel Richie, 59, and her baby daughter Harlow. Nicole and her father talk about their up and down relationship, and share some little known facts about events they’ve had to deal with.

Check out the Larry King Live interview clips of the Nicole Richie interview which aired on May 27, 2009:

Jon and Kate’s season premiere show of reality show “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ gave fans a peek into the disastrous state of their marriage. Since the couple has been accused of cheating on one another their already bumpy relationship became rocky. There’s even been rumors of the couple living and open marriage and the Jon is living in an apartment above the garage.

In the season premiere episode of the show the couple barely spoke to one another during the sextuplets birthday party but they did answer a few questions about their relationship within the hour. Jon showed little emotion and looked pretty defeated as he said that he was “there for the kids.” Kate became teary eyed as she talked about how the divorce rate of couples with multiple children triples.

Both Kate and Jon Gosselin admitted that they don’t know where they stand when it comes to the marriage, it was really sad to watch the two and the way they are now interacting with one another. They both look so unhappy when in previous show seasons they joked with one another playfully.

I wonder if this couple who is known for bickering back and forth would have survived if they’d never featured their family on television. Is it the pressure of raising eight small children or the intense scrutiny of the public watching their every move that’s caused added tension.

If the divorce rate between married couples with multiples is already triple that of an ordinary family than adding in fame, fortune, and paparazzi can’t be good thing. There are many fans of the show hoping that these two will somehow make it work, whether it be getting therapy, shutting down their reality show, or hey, even speaking to one another about how they feel.

The season premiere of the reality show “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ is only days away and for the first time the married couple is not sitting together in the show’s opening clips as they have always done in the past. Usually the couple sits on the two seater sofa lovingly talking about their children and sometimes even their relationship. But this season it’s different.

Could it be that they can’t bear to be in the same room together after both parties have been accused of cheating? Or perhaps it was just scheduling conflicts, after all Kate Gosselin has been away for weeks on a busy book tour.

Some even noticed the tension between the two during their sextuplets 5th birthday party. I’m just hoping that these two will shut down the cameras long enough to try to work things out for the sake of their 8 beautiful kids.

Only a week after appearing on CNN’s Larry King Live show in defense of her husband’s affair allegations, Kate Gosselin has decided she’s not so sure that Jon Gosselin is innocent after all.

Kate Gosselin is featured on the front cover of this week’s People Magazine with a headline that reads “Jon and Kate a marriage in crisis - We might split up.”

In her interview with People magazine she said that she and Jon’s relationship has been a private struggle for months now. In regards to the possibility of her husband Jon Gosselin having an affair 23-year-old teacher Deanna Hummel, Kate said “I remember where I was the first time I heard her name. It’s one of those things where you can try to make it go away, but there’s blaring, red flashing lights.”

Many Jon & Kate Plus 8 fans are wondering what affect Jon and Kate’s marital problems will have on their children and whether or not theire show will continue if the couple decides to divorce. The 5th season of the show will continue as scheduled on May 25, 2009.

45-year-old comedic actress Wanda Sykes is the proud new mom of twins. Sykes, who plays the role of “Barb” on the sitcom “The New Adventures of Old Christine” was married to record producer David Hall from 1991 to 1998. In 2008 she married female partner Alex and came out publicly as a lesbian. Now the married couple is welcoming baby Olivia Lou and Lucas Claude to the family. Alex gave birth to the twins on April 27, 2009.

Hearing the story of how Wanda Sykes married a man and then later married a woman reminds of the recent Oprah Winfrey Show that featured the topic of women leaving their husbands for other women. At least in this day in age women have the opportunity to do whatever they want no-matter what their sexual preference.

“The New Adventures of Old Christine” is on every Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. on CBS. You can find out what Wanda Sykes has been up to lately on her official website WandaSykes.com.

Wow, I honestly didn’t think it could get any worse for the Gosselin family, who are the stars of the reality show “Jon & Kate Plus 8. Just a few weeks ago Jon Gosselin’s questionable behavior began making headlines and now it’s Kate Gosselin who’s being accused of stepping out on her husband Jon and cheating with her bodyguard Steve Neild.

Kate is furious at the accusations and completely denies this latest rumor which if I’m correct was started by paparazzi who’s been following the family. I personally believe that Kate is innocent, seriously, the mom of 8 is too busy with her kids and work to even think of having the time for an affair.

I can’t imagine Kate Gosselin exposing her kids to that sort of thing either. Although I do believe there me be something up with Jon Gosselin and his women “friends” this latest rumor about Kate is just ridiculous.

According to Kate she is most definitely friends with Steve Neild and he often travels with the family and even spends holidays with them. But it’s nothing more than pure friendship, a friendship she now fears will be ruined thanks to the tabloids.

I can’t help but notice how quickly Kate spoke out publicly to let the world know that she did not have an affair, she was much more adamant about this latest rumor than she was when she weakly defended her husband Jon during her interview with Larry King. She seems much more upset over the accusations that she and Steve Neild have been having a fling than over the accusations of her husband cheating on her.

I think now would be a good time for the Gosselin family to step back from the spotlight and spend time together without the cameras rolling until the tabloid rumors die down. Otherwise like any celebrity couple they are putting their privacy and ultimately their relationship at risk.

37-year-old champion cyclist Lance Armstrong is finally revealing what exactly led to the break-up between he and girlfriend Sheryl Crow, 47. In his new book “Lance” he talks about Cheryl Crow wanting to marry and have children but he just wasn’t ready to begin a new family at the time.

The couple even went to counselling at the time to try to work things out but the two were at different places in their lives and wanted very different things. Lance Armstrong’s latest “tell all” book will be out this July 2009.

Lance Armstrong married his ex-wife Kirsten Richards on May 1, 1998. The couple had three children together, a boy named Luke, and a set of twins, Isabelle and Grace.  The marriage ended when they filed for divorce in 2003 and Armstrong began dating Sheryl Crow around that same time period.

Sheryl Crow and Lance Armstrong became engaged to married in 2005 and to everyone’s surprise broke up in February 2006. Fans of Armstrong and Crow were shocked by the sudden split because the couple seemed to be so much in love.

After the break-up Lance Armstrong dated fashion designer Tory Burch and actress Kate Hudson. In December of 2008 Armstrong announced that his girlfriend Anna Hansen was pregnant. Lance Armstrong believed he wasn’t able to conceive children naturally because of the cancer treatments he’s received in the past. The “miracle baby” is due in June 2009.

Sheryl Crow publicly announced that she adopted  a baby boy she named Wyatt Steven Crow on May 11, 2007. Wyatt was born on April 29, 2007. She and her son live on a farm near Nashville, Tennessee and the singer remains single.  I’m curious to know what Sheryl Crow thinks about her ex’s book and the fact he’s including her personal information in it.

Happy Mother’s Day to mother’s everywhere, and that of course includes celebrity moms. For those of you who can’t get enough of watching the stars with their children check out the following videos which include famous mom updates:

“Spiderman” star Tobey Maguire and his wife Jennifer Meyer welcomed their new baby boy on May 7, 2009. The couple met at Universal Studios in 2003 and married on September 4, 2007. This is the second child for the couple who already have a 2-year-old daughter named Ruby Sweetheart Maguire who was born on November 10, 2006.

Jennifer Meyer, 31, is the daughter of  Ron Meyer, the President and CEO of Universal Studios. Meyer runs her own successful Jewelery company and her unique jewelery designs are worn by many celebrities including Julia Roberts, Nicole Kidman, Kate Hudson, Jennifer Aniston, Demi Moore, and Katie Holmes.

Actor Tobey Maguire, 33, is currently working on the movies “Spiderman 4” and “Spiderman 5″ which are expected to be released in 2011 and 2012.

Congratulations to the happy couple on their latest family addition!

Kate Gosselin of the reality TV series “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ recently appeared on CNN’s Larry King Live show to talk about her large family and primarily about the rumors of her husband Jon Gosselin cheating.

The rumors started after Jon Gosselin was seen (and photographed) out on the town drinking and flirting with College aged women.

Then this spring paparazzi snapped photos of the reality star with teacher Deanna Hummel in the middle of the night.

Tabloids quickly picked up on the story and even claimed that the “Hummel’s” brother had come forward, saying his sister had in fact been dating Jon Gosselin for a while now. Judging by what he has said it sounds like he does not approve of the relationship.

Although Jon Gosselin issued a public statement denying that he has ever cheated on his wife, many feel that the photographs taken of him with the other woman at 2:00 a.m. (not to mention the video clip of Jon sneaking out of her house early one morning) are enough evidence to prove he is lying. At the very least Jon’s latest actions have embarrassed his wife and put her in an uncomfortable position.

In her interview with Larry King, Kate Gosselin somewhat defended her husband, but still, after watching her carefully answer the interview questions it seems as though she may not be 100% sure of his innocence.

With her sextuplets having their 5th birthday celebration this Mother’s Day (Sunday, May 8, 2009) and a brand new book coming out the last thing that Kate Gosselin needs is to have to deal with infidelity rumors. Thankfully Kate’s number one priority is her children and so far they are unaware of whatever difficulty their parents are going through right now, hopefully for the kids sake it will stay that way in the future.

Watch Kate Gosselin on Larry King Live:

Julie Chen made a surprise baby announcement on this morning’s April 21, 2009 episode of “The Early Show” where she works as a co-anchor.

The 39-year-old also hosts the hit reality show “Big Brother” and married President and Chief Executive Officer of CBS Corporation Les Moonves in 2004.

60-year-old Les Moonves has three adult children from a previous marriage but this baby is a first for Julie Chen. The baby is due on October 4, 2009 and Chen said that she will continue to host “Big Brother.”

Julie Chen is obviously very career driven because these two have more than enough money (they’re worth millions)  if Chen decided to take a leave of absense and throw herself into a full time mothering role.

Congratulations to the happy couple on their upcoming bundle of joy!

Jon and Kate Gosselin have been living happily with their children, a set of twins and a set of sextuplets. The couple turned their parenthood story into a reality show titled “Jon and Kate Plus Eight.” But rumor has it that there could be trouble in paradise. Shortly after the couple moved their large family into a brand new mansion pictures of Jon Gosselin partying with college aged girls surfaced on the Internet.

Rumor has it that he was drinking (and flirting) at a local bar. Kate and Jon don’t hide the fact that they argue with one another on their reality show. Some say Kate’s “snippiness” will eventually push her husband away. The flirtatious pictures have started rumors that Jon Gosselin could be cheating on Kate. Let’s face it when you have 8 kids and a tough wife, flirting in bars is a major no-no. Especially when the locals are posting your every move on the Internet. But there has been no divorce announcement, it’s strictly a rumor.

While Jon has been getting in trouble, Kate Gosselin has not only been busy with the children but she’s also been busy doing interviews on the talk show circuit. Since the birth of Octuplets catapulted Nadya Suleman to fame the public is interested in what experienced multiple mom Kate has to say. Gosselin talked about how extremely hard the first year of the sextuplets lives was for her when she appeared on the Dr. Phil show in February 2009. Kate told Dr. Phil that it took a team of 40 people a week working around the clock to care for the babies and that she literally did not sit down and relax for a year.

Check out this video clip of  the Gosselin family from their show “Jon and Kate Plus Eight:”

UPDATE: Jon Gosselin is in trouble again after he’s photographed while out with a mystery woman - read the full story here.

Joel Madden made a suprise baby announcement on his Good Charlotte blog yesterday, February 21, 2009 at 11:00am. He and Nicole Ritchie are expecting their second child, and daughter Harlow Winter Kate Madden will be a big sister soon.

Harlow Winter was born on January 11, 2009 and Nicole Ritchie, 27, gave up her party lifestyle to settle down and become a mom. With the second Madden baby on it’s way I’d say it’s time for Joel Madden to pop the question. Congratulations to the happy couple on their growing family!
