Bruce Jenner Is ‘Transitioning Into a Woman’ CONFIRMED


A source close to the former Olympian confirmed he's making a big lifestyle change

People have been talking about Bruce Jenner’s changing appearance for months, and now Beverly News reports, “the former Olympian will soon be living life as a female.”

“Bruce is transitioning to a woman,” says a source close to the family. “He is finally happy and his family is accepting of what he’s doing. He’s in such a great space. That’s why it’s the perfect time to do something like this.”

And according to a different Jenner insider, the 65-year-old reality star is filming his momentous journey, to be shared with viewers on a docu-series this year. "It will air when he is ready to be open about his transition," the source said. "But he's acting more and more confident and seems very happy."

Jenner's much-documented physical appearance (he's been photographed with longer hair, manicured nails and wearing makeup) has led to much speculation, but according to the insider, Jenner's decision to transition slowly was made in part so that his family would have time to adapt to the change.

Justin Bieber Stalks Larry King, Says He Wants To Be On His Show


Justin Bieber was just driving through Beverly Hills -- when he had his driver flip a bitch in his pimped out Rolls Royce and put down the back window so the 20 year-old pop star could meet 81 year-old talk show host Larry King and shake his hand.

A photographer witnessed it all -- in fact, as Larry walked across the street, the photographer yelled out, "Hey, Justin Bieber's trying to meet you!" King gave the guy a quizzical look and the photographer explained, "That's Justin Beiber in that car -- he just turned around to come back to meet you!"

Larry's pretty good at keeping up with the news (it's his job, after all) so we assume he knows who the chart-topping musician is and we also assume he'd KILL to have the young music mogul on his Hulu show Larry King Now.

Shakira Gives Birth To Second Son


Hip-shaking singer Shakira and her boyfriend, professional soccer player Gerard Pique, are now the proud parents to a second baby boy. On Friday, the popstar announced on Twitter that she gave birth to her son in Barcelona, Spain.

The birth news was also on the "She Wolf" singer's Facebook page: "We are happy to announce the birth of Sasha Piqué Mebarak, son of Shakira Mebarak and Gerard Piqué, born January 29 at 9:54pm, in Barcelona. The name Sasha is of Greek and Russian descent and means 'defender of mankind' and 'warrior.' The hospital confirmed that both mother and child are in excellent health."

The 37-year-old Colombian and her younger man (he's 27) first met at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, when she attended the games to perform the World Cup's anthem "Waka Waka (This Time For Africa"). Looks like she did more than steal the show at the soccer fest!

The duo welcomed their first son, Milan, in January 2013.

Chelsea Handler Takes Her Top Off For Peace In The Middle East


Chelsea Handler may start a war with this Instagram.

On Wednesday, the 39-year-old, who is currently on vacation in Israel, posted a snap of her sitting atop a camel wearing blue-and-white Star Of David pasties.

The often-topless comedian posted the pic to her million plus Instagram with the caption, "A Muslim allowed a topless Jew to sit on his camel. And we say we can't live side by side? I say we try and we can and we will. And, You don't even have to be topless. L'chaim."

This isn't the firs time Chelsea's shown her tits for social media. In December, the late night host posted a topless skiing photo. Only the classiest locations for the classiest of girls.

Scarlett Johansson was dressed casually as she carried daughter Rose while out and about in Beverly Hills on Wednesday.

The newly blonde actress is currently in Los Angeles to shoot her latest film, Hail Ceasar!.

For the outing, Scar Jo donned a pair of black jeans, a white t-shirt and a plaid over shirt. The actress, who is married to French journalist Roman Duriac, dressed the four-month-old in orange t-shirt and an adorable pair of navy pants and brown slippers.

On Tuesday, the 30-year-old star grabbed some lunch with her baby girl at her side in the oh-so-hip Los Feliz area of Los Angeles.

In a recent interview with Barbara Walters, the Avengers actress talked about being a hands-on mom, "I do the whole bit. I'm nursing and I love it. It's the best way to get back in shape."

She also said, "[Motherhood is] wonderful. It's very, very magical - and exhausting. The love is just unbelievable. It's very overwhelming.'

Kate Hudson And Goldie Hawn Look Less-Than Glamorous After Mother/Daughter Trip To Paris


Kate Hudson and mom Goldie Hawn's travel outfits are a far cry from the stunning looks they wore the Versace show during Paris Fashion Week on Sunday.

The mother/daughter duo landed in Los Angeles on Tuesday night after a trip to the City of Love. While there, newly single 35-year-old made headlines when she wore a daring, cut-out Versace dress to the label's runway show on Sunday night. Looks like she wanted to put on her comfy clothes for the international flight -- and we can't blame her!

For the flight, the Nine star opted for a ripped pair of jeans, a grey Bobby Top from Heartloom and suede boots by Sarah Flint. And while her look may be low-key -- she still manages to show off her Hollywood star status with her pricey jewelry -- she's wearing a $6750 gold turtle necklace by Jennifer Meyer.

Angelina Jolie Manages To Look Glamorous Even After Stepping Off A Flight From Iraq


On Tuesday afternoon, the Oscar winner, who is a UN Envoy, touched down after a two-day trip to Iraq. For the flight, Angelina suited up in an all-black ensemble, consisting of black jeans, black boots. A flight from the Middle East to Los Angeles usually takes over 23 hours -- so we definitely understand why Brad Pitt's lady love would want something comfy! But she certainly isn't sacrificing comfort for style in this understated, but still sexy ensemble.

During her charity trip, the mother of six visited refugees living in an abandoned school in Al Qosh, Iraq. During her whirlwind trip to war-torn country, the 39-year-old visited the Iraqi refugees, who are members of the minority Christian community.

In addition, Angelina traveled to the Kurdistan Region of Iraq to offer support to 3.3 million displaced people.

At a press conference at the Khanke Camp for Internally Displaced People (IDPs) in Dohuk Governorate, the A-lister spoke about what has happened to the middle eastern country since she last visited in 2012. "Since I was last here in Iraq, another two million people have been forced from their homes, mostly in the last six months – this time Iraqi citizens," said Jolie.

Melissa Rivers Files Multimillion Dollar Lawsuit Against Clinic And Doctors Who Performed Surgery On Her Mom Joan Rivers


Melissa Rivers filed a lawsuit against the Yorkville Endoscopy clinic and the doctors who operated on her mother Joan last year, claiming gross medical malpractice. It's not yet known exactly how much money Melissa is seeking in the settlement, but it's in the 8-figures.

"The level of medical mismanagement, incompetency, disrespect and outrageous behavior is shocking and frankly, almost incomprehensible," Melissa wrote in the lawsuit. “Not only did my mother deserve better, every patient deserves better."

The lawsuit claims that another doctor took photos of Rivers when she was unconscious. "Had doctors acted as physicians for Joan Rivers instead of groupies, Joan Rivers would have been doing Fashion Police last week," Melissa’s attorney, Jeffrey Bloom, told the New York Daily News.

Emile Hirsch is currently under police investigation for an alleged assault on a woman during the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, reports Us Weekly.

The woman, who is executive at Paramount Pictures, is flaming that the Into The Wild star, assaulted her at 3:30 AM at TAO nightclub on Sunday.

"Last night, Emile Hirsch got into a fight with an executive at Paramount at TAO Sundance … and the executive was looking into pressing charges against Emile this morning," a source told the mag.

The Park City Police Department gave a statement to Us, "We are still investigating the case and cannot provide details at this time."

Page Six first reported the story, which said that the police were first called to the scene at the time of the alleged incident but was not arrested. A source told the New York Post's gossip page, "Something happened between the movie exec and Emile, and she said she had been assaulted and asked security to call the police … Emile didn’t leave the scene, and calmly waited for the police to arrive, and spoke with them until around 5 a.m., after which he went home with his friends. No arrests were made."

The actor, who is at the film fest to promote his new film Ten Thousand Saints, has a 14-month-old son.

Kris Jenner Tries To Steal Kendall Jenner's Spotlight During Paris Fashion Week


Over the weekend, Kris and Kendall hit Paris for Paris Fashion Week -- and we can tell by the size of her outfit, Kris definitely wants to steal her daughter's spotlight. Kendall is in the City of Lights to walk the runway in several fashion shows.

It seems that the two are having a busy couple of days together. On Monday, the 19-year-old donned leather skinnies and a white leather jacket to grab a bite at L' Avenue restaurant. Last night, Kendall and her mom took to the streets of Paris in vastly different styles. Kendall covered up when she wore her leather pants, which she topped off with a chic, fur-trimmed coat. On the other hand, the aging reality star wore a very skimpy outfit, which raised more than a few eyebrows.

Amal Clooney Parts Way With Husband George, After Two Weeks Together In LA


Amal Clooney said goodbye to her new husband George as she headed back to London to get back to work as a barrister at Doughty Street Chambers.

The human rights attorney donned a blood red coat with buckles, accentuating her thin frame and her hair -- as always -- was impossibly shiny and perfectly curled. Alas, who cares! Because these brainy beauty has serious work to do and prancing through international airports in haute couture has nothing to do with it!

Amal enjoyed a rare two weeks along with her love George Clooney, after the pair jetted into town for the Golden Globes and then stayed, holed up in the actor's home, hardly being seen out on the town at all, save the single time the pair were snapped running errands in Santa Monica, Amal in a $5000 Giambattista Valli dress.

Nick Cannon And Amber Rose Are Doing A Bad Job Of Looking Like They're "Just Friends"


While Amber Rose insisted on social media that she and Nick Cannon are "just friends," the two continued to fuel dating rumors when they showed up together at a house party on Saturday.

The "pals" headed out to a house party in Malibu on Sunday. We are glad that Amber covered up that banging bod' of hers and didn't wear a see-through bikini this week, but she definitely wanted to show off those curves. Wiz Khalifa's famous ex highlighted her notable form in a very figure-hugging dress -- and added a pop of pink with faux fur pink clutch. She certainly likes to get noticed!

If Nick and Amber haven't hooked up yet -- we can't imagine that the newly single celebs won't get it on at some point.

Amber also took to Instagram to post a pic of the twosome, "U guys like me and @nickcannon's matching Ferraris? #HisandHers #Ncredible."

Chris Martin And Gwyneth Paltrow Consciously Recouple At Giorgio Baldi


Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow consciously recoupled in Santa Monica at their favorite restaurant, Giorgio Baldi, last night. These two just can't quit each other!

The former couple stopped at the Italian eatery for a quick bite, arriving together at 6:15 PM and leaving together by 7:30 PM. The Coldplay frontman chauffeured Gwyneth, Apple and Moses around in his Jeep.

A photog on the scene said the foursome looked like the picture-perfect family. "It's rare to see Gwenyth and Chris like that, playing family with the kids. There is usually some distance between them, like they take separate cars to meet up at a restaurant. But here they were all together, back together like one big happy family," said the camera man.

He also added, " they all seemed really happy to be together. It was like this is the way they're supposed to be, together."

Kate Hudson And Michelle Rodriguez Show Some Leg At Versace Show In Paris


Kate Hudson showed off her body at the Versace show at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week on Sunday night, as she posed with the label's designer, Donatella, and with her mom Goldie Hawn.

Kate's red cut-out number revealed half her body, basically -- including the upper region of her ass. Loves!

Donatella wore some seriously-flared pants and a cropped jacket ... and we won't go any farther with the description of her look. We'll just stop here ...

And who's that woman in the other picture? What? You mean you don't recognize the Fast and the Furious star in a short dress? Well, yes -- that sexy-legged beauty is the sometimes tomboyish Michelle Rodriguez who glammed it up for the event.

Billy Ray Cyrus Lists The Family Compound For $6 Million


Billy Ray Cyrus has put his family's Toluca Lake mansion on the market for $5.995 million, and we're very curious as to why! He owns several properties in Nashville and daughter Miley has two of her own pads nearby, so either he's looking to upgrade or something is going on with the family...

The "Achy Breaky Heart" singer purchased the 8,700-square-foot-pad in 2007 for $5.8 million, but at the time of purchase the square footage was listed as 8,200, so it seems as though he added a few upgrades.


Josh Hartnett Lists Minnesota Home For $2.39 Million


Josh Hartnett just listed his Minnesota home for $2.39 million, as his real estate agency revealed the actor plans "to downsize locally as he will be spending less time in the region."

Fox Searchlight’s Birdman made it two nights in a row for a top honor, taking home the SAG Awards’ cast ensemble award that stands as the guild’s closest award to the Oscar Best Picture. The win tonight over awards-season rivals Boyhood, The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Imitation Game and The Theory Of Everything puts the Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu-directed quirky comedy in the driver’s seat for the Best Picture Academy Award, after winning the PGA Awards’ top honor on Saturday.

On the TV side, Netflix’s Orange Is The New Black scored a couple of Actor trophies, taking the Comedy Ensemble and Outstanding Actress awards for Uzo Aduba, who plays Crazy Eyes in the prison-set series.

Oscar Winner Dianne Wiest: I'm Struggling To Pay My Rent


Despite bringing new opportunities in the short-term, the sheen of an Oscar victory can sometimes only go so far. Just ask two-time winner Dianne Wiest.

The 66-year-old actress, who begins previews Tuesday for off-Broadway production Rasheeda Speaking, told the New York Times she is facing money issues due to a lack of high-paying work.

"I have to move out of my apartment soon," Wiest said of her struggle to cover her rent.

She earned Oscars for best supporting actress for 1986's Hannah and Her Sisters and 1994's Bullets Over Broadway, both directed by Woody Allen. But after that, she found she was only getting offered roles to play "a nice mom, and that's it. That's all that ever came, except in theater."

Wiest, who was the focus of one of the vignettes in 2007's David Wain-directed comedy The Ten, added that she doesn't plan to try writing her own roles. "I think that if it's meant to happen, it will happen,” she said. “Which is I guess a real sign of stupidity."

She has recently been seen on screen in the Al Pacino-starring The Humbling, released Friday, and in 2012's The Odd Life of Timothy Green, along with a 2014 episode of NBC's The Blacklist.
