Prince William Hints At Baby Number 2
It may only have been a quip, a classic well-meaning comment made during a royal outing, but Prince William set off speculation that he and wife Kate are planning for baby no. 2 imminently.
The hint came as William told a woman who'd made a gift for his son: "You might have to make another one soon."
The remark came as William and Kate, who are on a three-week tour Down Under, were chatting to Cynthia Read, who had knitted them a shawl for their son, Prince George, on behalf of the New Zealand government.
Read told reporters on Saturday, "The way William said it was like he was dropping a hint, letting me in on a secret."
The couple has made no secret of their desire give their 8-month-old son a brother or sister. But William's comment Saturday came just a month after he told an army veteran at the Irish Guards' St. Patrick's Day parade that "one's enough for now."
Shawl-maker Read was asked if she believed the prince meant another royal baby would soon be on the way. "Maybe," she replied. "I couldn't possibly comment. Obviously if I'm asked to do another one I would be honored, but we'll wait and see."

Steven Spielberg just listed his beachfront Malibu home for rent for a whopping $150K a month.
The director and his wife Kate Capshaw must have good luck with the market, because just last summer they were offering it for a slightly more modest $125K a month. We guess if people are willing to pay, raise your price!
The Craftsman-style abode boasts 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms, as well as a detached 2 bedroom guest house. There is a wrap around courtyard with an indoor pool and attached spa. The master suite has a private library and a massage room that overlooks the ocean.

Lisa Vanderpump's Husband Sued For Alleged Sidewalk Attack

Two construction workers claim Lisa Vanderpump's husband Ken Todd attacked them ... then accused them of blackmail ... all because of a construction beef last year at Todd's West Hollywood restaurant.
The workers -- brothers Kevin and David Cazaref -- claim they were demolishing a sidewalk with a concrete chipper ... when Todd approached them "in a rude and aggressive manner" to complain about their work.
According to the lawsuit, Todd got even angrier when Kevin asked Todd to show him the right way to do it -- and eventually shoved Kevin. David then flagged down a Sheriff's deputy to report the incident.
According to docs, the deputy talked to Todd, who apologized ... and offered Kevin "a sum of money as a gesture of good faith" -- but when the brothers rejected his offer (while standing at an ATM) ... Todd got mad and started yelling he was being blackmailed.
The Cazarefs are now suing for assault, battery and slander.
If all of this sounds a little familiar ... it's because Todd sued the brothers last October, claiming he was the one who was attacked. The brothers say that case was dismissed ... because Todd never showed up to court.
Debbie Rowe: I'm Going to Court To Get Michael Jackson's Kids
Debbie Rowe will wage legal war to get guardianship of the 2 kids she had with Michael Jackson ... and if she could she'd gladly take all 3.
Sources familiar with the situation say... Rowe is deeply concerned about the environment in the Jackson home. She likes Katherine Jackson but believes she has gotten way too old to serve as guardian ... "Katherine's not connected with the kids or involved in their lives" Rowe told a friend.
Rowe is also concerned Michael's brothers are hanging around the Calabasas house a lot and have been a terrible influence. She's complained Prince has developed a filthy mouth and is rebellious because no one is even trying to keep him in line.
Rowe is especially upset with Jermaine, who will appear on "Celebrity Wife Swap." Rowe thinks he's just plain creepy and extremely inappropriate, and wants him as far away from the kids as possible.

We're not sure how she was able to keep this one under wraps, but apparently Sofia Vergara purchased this 11,400-square-foot mansion in Beverly Hills back in February for a whopping $10.6 million.
The gated Italian-style villa sits on .6 acres of land, and it has 7 bedrooms and 11 baths. The home was built in 2006, so it won't be needing renovations any time soon either. When you first walk in the door there is an ornate stone entryway and a spiral staircase, and the formal living and dining rooms both feature coffered ceilings with intricate carvings.

Elia Kazan's Private Letters: Sleeping With Marilyn, Chastising Beatty and Discovering Newman
Director Elia Kazan remains one of Hollywood's most polarizing figures. He directed such classics as A Streetcar Named Desire (1951), On the Waterfront (1954), East of Eden (1955) and Splendor in the Grass (1961). The native New Yorker's career began on the stage and, as such, Kazan was an actor's director; he discovered Marlon Brando, James Dean and Warren Beatty. He also loved writers and proved a nimble collaborator for such icons as Tennessee Williams and John Steinbeck.
But when he testified before the
House Un-American Activities Committee about being a member of the
Communist Party in the '30s, he "named names" -- an act that drew scorn
from some of his contemporaries and colored his career and his 1999
honorary Oscar (some of the attendees, like Kirk Douglas, steadfastly refused to applaud).
While a look at the correspondence he left when he died in 2003 at 94 -- collected in The Selected Letters of Elia Kazan,
out April 22 -- can't form a complete portrait of the man, it offers
invaluable insight into the mind of one of the 20th century's great
cinematic artists.
He was a man who admitted to various marital infidelities, including one with Marilyn Monroe ("a touching pathetic waif," see full letter below), recognized the appeal of Paul Newman
("plenty of power, insides and sex"), scolded Beatty for being a diva
and fought tooth-and-nail with censors and studio heads to preserve his
directorial vision. He was a man who loathed much about Hollywood --
writing his wife, Molly Day Thacher, that he hated it
"in a shrieking insane way. … It's like the grave, the tomb, the charnel
pit -- except it's all very fancy … full of really very fine people,
all in various stages of decomposition, without knowing" -- but came to
Tinseltown anyway because that's where movies are made.
Selena Gomez Fires Mom & Dad As Her Managers
She's 21, but Selena Gomez has just fired her mother and stepfather -- as her managers anyway.
Sources close to the singer say, Selena axed her p-units Mandy and Brian Teefey last month, permanently relieving them of all duties related to the management of her career. Selena's parents had managed her since her big break at Disney.
We're told Selena feels she's outgrown her parents. She believes she's now old enough -- and famous enough -- to have a seasoned professional manager with other A-list clients.
Selena has argued plenty with her parents over the direction of her career -- not to mention over dating Justin Bieber -- but we're told family friction was NOT the reason for the split. We're told Selena remains close with both of her parents, although they're not happy about the decision.
As for who Selena wants to rep her, sources say she's still looking for the perfect candidate.
Paul Stanley of KISS Calls Hall of Fame Induction ‘a Farce’

KISS frontman Paul Stanley does
not mince his words when talking about his band’s induction into The
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year.
“It’s a farce.”
KISS has endured for four decades
and sold 100 million albums as rock and roll legends, yet Stanley says
the hall of fame induction is a grudgingly given honor.
“These guys, these people behind
the scenes, decide who they want in their club,” he said. “Because they
don’t think that we meet their criteria for rock and roll. I guess I’m
too smart, too healthy, and I have somewhat of a business head on my
shoulders. It would be much more to their liking if I was washing cars
at this point. These people find credibility in you doing drugs, or
having a hard life, or tattooing yourself from head to foot or putting
pins in your eyes, those people don’t do it, but that’s what they deem
to be credible. They don’t have the guts or stupidity to live like that
but they champion the people who do.”
Though Stanley will attend the
induction ceremony Thursday night in New York City, KISS will not be
playing. Stanley said he refused to perform with drummer Peter Criss and
guitarist Ace Frehley, two of the original members who are no longer
part of the band but who are honorees that evening.
