Christina Aguilera 'Beams with Pride' For Son Max

Chistina Aguilera “beams with pride” every day because of her two-year-old son Max.

The Burlesque star — who recently split with Max’s father Jordan Bratman after nearly five years of marriage — loves being a mother and enjoys the “little things” they do together as well as regular trips to Disneyland.

“Being a parent allows you to beam with pride on a daily basis. Even the little things bring us so much joy … like singing as I put Max to bed or going trick-or-treating and seeing Max dress up on Halloween,” she said.

“Max and I go to Disneyland often. It really is the happiest place on earth.” Family is very important to the 29-year-old star, and she enjoys spending time with her mother.

“I go home to Pennsylvania a lot to see my mom and brother,” she said. “There is no place like home. It means the world to me to have such a supportive family.” Christina recently revealed her split from Jordan was because she was hunting for “spontaneity” in her life.

“My life is cyclical. I’m not a nine-to-five woman who has the same kind of lifestyle for years on end. I couldn’t do it. I need the spontaneity, that thrill of change. That’s part of how I get inspired,” she said.

Katy Perry Is Forgetting She Is Married

Katy Perry tied the knot with comedian Russell Brand, 35, in an intimate ceremony in India last month but still can’t get used to calling him her husband. She said: "I forget to call him 'my husband' sometimes and still say 'my boyfriend'. But I'll get there."

Katy and Russell spend yesterday’s Thanksgiving with the singer’s parents in Santa Barbara, and though she had promised their celebration would be as “wild” as usual, the family were making one change a tofu turkey to please the vegetarian funnyman.

She said: “We're gonna cook a tofu turkey!” Speaking about the family celebrations she added: "We're gonna put him through it again. Ha!"

Though Katy keeps forgetting she is married to Russell, her parents Keith and Mary Hudson are thrilled to have welcomed him into their family.

Keith said recently: "I could not have wished for a better son-in-law in Russell. He makes my girl so happy. She's so happy and he makes her light up. They're going to be just fine.

Denise Richards has two daughters, Sam and Lola, with her ex-husband Charlie Sheen, and she admits she sometimes tells them white lies when she goes out to meet men.

She said: "When I go on dates, I tell Sam and Lola I have a meeting."

The 39-year-old beauty also confessed she has a "soft spot" for unwell and injured animals, and is currently looking after three canine cuties.

She added to Us magazine: "I have a three-legged dog, a blind dog and one with terminal cancer. I have a soft spot for hard-to-place animals!"

Despite not always being truthful about her romantic liaisons, Denise recently explained she likes to be a "hands-on" parent to Sam and Lola, because they are always her number one priority.

She said: "I'm definitely a hands-on mom. For me it's about priorities, and my girls always come first. I look at it as having a harmonious house more than balancing -- it's never quite balanced!

"I have a rule -- I won't introduce my girls to anyone I'm dating unless it's very serious."

Jessica Alba: Problem With Family

Jessica Alba the actress who stars in upcoming comedy sequel Little Fockers  says she was regularly embarrassed by her parents when taking boyfriends home during her dating days.

“My family is actually pretty out of control,” she said. “Whenever I would bring boyfriends home I was always there cringing knowing they were about to say that thing they always say.

“My mom would always say, ‘I brought you into this world and I can take you out too.’ I’m like, ‘Mom! That’s so embarrassing.’” And Jessica says her parents would also like to tell her suitors about the day the actress was conceived.

“My grandparents still live in the house where I guess that happened,” she said. “I don’t need to know!” Alba who has a two-year-old daughter, Honor Marie, with her husband Cash Warren recently revealed she wants to have “more children”.

“Honor’s so beautiful and I feel so enriched by being part of her life,” she told the UK’s Look magazine. “She’s my main priority now and I want to give her the best life possible.

“Before she was born I was totally focused on my career, but now with Cash and our daughter I feel that I’m building a wonderful family. I would like to have more children at some point.”

Kylie Minogue Dreaming For White Christmas

Kylie Minogue will ''be like a five year old'' with excitement if she gets to see a white Christmas this year, because December is summertime in her home country Australia.


The 'All The Lovers' singer is releasing a festive single - a cover of 1945 classic 'Let It Snow', originally recorded by Vaughn Monroe - which she admits is somewhat ironic, because it is always summertime in her native Australia in December.

She told Perezhilton.com: "I think it's kind of ironic that I'm singing 'Let It Snow' being an Australian - we don't have snow at Christmas time. So if in fact it does snow whilst I'm in New York this year, I'll be like a five year old kid, I'll be so excited.

"It's always a big thrill for me to be on the side of the world where it's a white Christmas."

Although 'Let It Snow' is considered a festive song, its lyrics never mention Christmas and it was written in conditions Kylie could appreciate - on one of California's hottest days on record by lyricist Sammy Cahn and composer Jule Styne .

The 42-year-old has previously recorded a version of Eartha Kitt's Christmas hit 'Santa Baby', which has also been covered by Madonna, Sugababes and Reverend Run of rap group Run DMC.

Romance Over For Kate Winslet And Model Boyfriend Louis Dowler

Kate Winslet has split from her model boyfriend Louis Dowler.

The British hunk had been credited with helping the Oscar-winner mend her broken heart after her marriage to director husband Sam Mendes fizzled earlier this year.

Dowler and Winslet are said to have met a mutual friend’s party, hitting it off from the get-go. The loved up duo was spotted soaking up the sunshine together in New York and strolling hand-in-hand.

Dowler, who has fronted campaigns for Burberry, Paul Smith and Paco Rabanne, was rumoured to be temporarily moving to Chicago to be with his A-list squeeze while she filmed her latest flick, Contagion.

But, according to a friend, it was a classic case of a rebound relationship drawing to a close according to the Daily Mail. Start of sidebar. Skip to end of sidebar. End of sidebar. Return to start of sidebar.

“Louis was just the tonic Kate needed after her painful split from Sam and they had a wonderful time,” the friend says.

“However, they have realised their relationship isn’t working and Kate needs space to be on her own. She is very grateful to Louis for helping her pick her life back up after her marriage ended and they had a lot of fun together, but she felt it had come to an end and wants to concentrate on her career and children.”

Winselt and Mendes are parents to Joe, seven. The Titanic star is also Mum to daughter Mia, ten, from her first marriage to director Jim Threapleton.
