The fun and flirty Eva Mendes has expressed her aspiration that she wants Russell Crowe as her next leading man.

Eva Mendes, 34, who is famous for her hot onscreen kissing with fellow stars like Denzel Washington, Will Smith and Johnny Depp, has also said that kissing the fellow stars is one of the perks of the job. She joked, “Kissing - it’s legal cheating.”

The actress is in Australia for 30 Days of Fashion and Beauty Festival. Eva was also furious on US Censor authorities for banning her Calvin Klein fragrance commercial featuring a naked Mendes rolling around on the bed, exposing a little too much.

She said, “I’m completely American, I was born and raised in America and I love it but I think we are too quick to censor nudity.” She also added, “Meanwhile, it’s OK to blow things up and our films are so violent and our television is so violent, I would rather see tasteful nudity than violence any day of the week.”

On Friday, it was announced that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin was chosen to be Republican presidential nominee John McCain’s running mate. The 44-year-old Idaho-native claimed to be the mother of five children, the youngest of whom was diagnosed with Down Syndrome. Palin’s decision to have the baby was applauded by the pro-life community.
However we have incriminating evidence that suggests Sarah Palin is not the mother of four-month-old Trig:

– Trig is not Sarah’s son, but grandson. It was her 16-year-old daughter Bristol who was carrying.
– Family had taken Bristol out of Anchorage High School due to contracting “infectious mononucleosis”. Reports say she was absent from school for five to eight months. Mono can last anywhere from two weeks to three months.

I say this counts as a really good skit for the hit TV show! Tina really resembles Sarah, plus this picture is good enough reason for her to come back!

It is a common maxim that after a couple spends a long time together, they start looking more like each other. If you think it will take longer to look alike than you can follow the footsteps of your favorite celebrities.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are trying to follow the same saying as they were seen on the night of 24th August 2008 wearing the identical pairs of jeans. They were both seen in New York City with their daughter Suri. They had accelerated the process of looking alike by sporting the same vintage washed, sand-blasted jeans.

Probably Katie Holmes had to borrow her hubby’s jeans due to some unavoidable reasons. The fans can only pray that they do not see the couple wearing one of her dresses in a quest to look identical.

Stripping down to her bra and panties is just another day’s work for hot Brazilian model Adriana Lima. And now the 27-year-old hottie, who is one of the well know Victoria’s Secret angels, strips down to her underwear for their new coffee table book.

Victoria’s Secret is set to release its coffee table book called Supermodel Obsession. Adriana is one of the many Victoria’s Secret’s angels featured in the catalog, Adriana was featured in some photo shoot. Another angel featured in the book is supermodel Doutzen Kroes.

Adriana was also recently featured in a very provocative commercial for a Samsung. The video features the supermodel stripping down for a lucky guy via camera phone.

Fashion Weekly Daily reports that, last week, Brad Pitt photographed Angelina Jolie last week for the November cover of W magazine.

The awesome dad Brad shot Angelina at the Chateau Miraval in the South of France along with their kids, Maddox, 6, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, Shiloh, 2 and 6-week-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

In other news from the world of the Jolie-Pitts, Brad and Angelina are eligible for almost $2,600/month as part of France’s generous parenting subsidies. They are not, of course, interested in accepting the subsidy as because that amount is just chunk change to them.

Spokesperson from France’s Brignoles council tells People, “We do not discuss individual benefits cases, but [we] can confirm that all resident local families with young children are eligible for certain benefits.”

In the Picture: the Jolie-Pitts for the July 2005 cover of W Magazine

Britney Spears was spotted escorted by sheriffs as she met up with her mom at celebrity lawyer Barry Tarlow’s office last week. The recovering starlet is set to go back to court regarding her custody case with a hearing scheduled for September 16. Her custody battle could reportedly cost her over $700,000. Her father and conservator, Jamie, is said to be wanting to contest the high price of attorney’s fees. With a price tag like that, who wouldn’t? It’s not like her lawyers were able to do anything good anyway. Her conservators did all the work. Boo for the lawyers.

To be able to reach his $100 Million earnings throughout his career, Michael Phelps has decided to write a book.
Michael Phelps, who was also recently featured in Sports Illustrated and the newest endorser of Kellogg’s, plans to write a memoir. The book will contain the behind the winning of his eight gold medals at the Beijing Olympic games.
The book entitled, “Built to Succeed”, which will be out in December, will cover his philosophies on training and competition. It will also contain details about childhood, how he was raised by a single mother and how he coped with an attention-deficit disorder.

TV chef Jamie Oliver outraged Germans last night — by making a crass joke about the holocaust. The Cockney cook, 33, made the jibe in front of a 300-strong audience — many of them German.

He was talking about his Jamie’s Fowl Dinners show being broadcast globally and a scene in it where chicks are killed. He said: “We had a lot of complaints about the gassing of chicks . . . in Germany. It’s gone all round the world and the one country that had a problem with it is Germany. I thought f****** hell!”

But German writer Udo Seiwert-Fauti who was at the talk for the Edinburgh TV Festival, said: “It was a very unwise thing to say — I was shocked.”

Jamie’s spokesman last night confirmed “half a dozen” people complained. He added: “We love all Germans and I am sure he did not mean to offend them.”

The 36 year old mother was interviewed by the newspaper in honor of the 10th anniversary of Baby Einstein products. When she was asked by the paper about her upcoming projects, she simply pointed to her growing belly and said with a smile, “this”.

Although, Jen wouldn’t reveal her due date to the paper, we’re sure she’s due sometime in the winter.

Jennifer already has a 2-year-old daughter, Violet (who is one of the most adorable celebrity babies), with actor husband Ben Affleck.

The final film of the Harry Potter heptalogy – “Harry Potter and the deathly Hallows” will also feature a scene of Harry Potter without clothes.

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe was stunned by the idea, “At first I thought I had pants on. Apparently not”. But he further added, “It is all old hat now, really”.

He will not have much of a problem as he recently removed his trousers on stage for the London West End version of “Equus”. So having done so on stage successfully, he should not have any trouble doing it on screen.

Keep it up Daniel!!! You are the man….

Jennifer Aniston is reportedly determined to “behave like a lady” over her split with ‘Gravity’ singer John Mayer.

Despite John saying over the weekend that he was the one who ended the relationship with the former ‘Friends’ star, the actress is also claiming she was the one who made the decision. However, she is refusing to be drawn into a war of words with the musician.

A source close to the 39-year-old actress said: “Jennifer will never kiss and tell, but it’s she who ended the relationship. John’s childish behaviour only confirms she was right to dump him. Now he’s acting like a spoiled child. Expect Jennifer to behave like a lady.”

The actress was also angered by John’s constant demands for money, it has been claimed. The source added: “Jennifer was tired of paying for everything. Cobwebs come flying out of John’s wallet when he opens it. John liked living like a movie star when he was with her. Jennifer would never say anything, but you could tell it irritated her.”

The revelations come after John’s claim on Saturday: “I ended a relationship to be alone, because I don’t want to waste somebody’s time if something’s not right.”

But the Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels director made sure it was one his missus wouldn’t forget on Saturday night by making an emotive speech that helped dispel rumours the couple are on the brink of splitting.

Guy got up in front of 90 of his wife’s pals at the Volstead nightclub bash in London’s West End and paid tribute to her amazing career.

He spoke of his pride at being her husband before adding: “She looks better now than she ever has done. I’m so proud. I love her so much.”

And just in case there were any dry eyes left in the house, Madge’s daughter Lourdes stepped up to sing. The 11-year-old belted out Never Alone from the musical Fame, proving she could follow in her mum’s giant footsteps if she chooses.

Touched Madge then composed herself enough to say her thanks to friends and family — in a speech that lasted almost 30 mouth-drying minutes.

I’m surprised she had the energy for the speech after a night of dancing — to her own music.

Madge appeared to be using the party as a final run-through for her world tour, which starts in Cardiff on Saturday. She gyrated along to her back catalogue and kids Lourdes, Rocco and David joined in too.

Of the guests at the $200,000 party, 40 were Madonna’s dancers. A friend said: “She loved it when her songs came on. Her dancers were pulling out all the moves, breakdancing around her. It was like a final rehearsal for the tour.”

Entertainment was provided by creepy American magician David Blaine. I suppose it beats a bloke making animals out of balloons.

Say goodbye to Mike Myers as you know him. The funnyman is set to wipe smiles off faces by playing a military mastermind who plots to wipe out Nazi leaders.

And after his last efforts in The Love Guru flopped, a change of direction is probably not a bad thing.

Quentin Tarantino has hired the Austin Powers star to join Inglorious Bastards, his new film which starts shooting in October.

Brad Pitt recently confirmed he would be starring in the flick, opposite Eli Roth. The Pulp Fiction filmmaker clearly has a thing for turning comics into thespians, with hopes to recruit Hot Fuzz star Simon Pegg and The Waterboy legend Adam Sandler.

The swaggering singer, 38, bragged he’d still be romping long after rivals had dropped out.

Asked which Olympic sport he’d excel in, the New Yorker said: “Who could have sex the longest. I think that’s an event I can do well in. And probably who could stay up the longest.”

The music mogul said he would be willing to take on “whoever’s up for the challenge”.

Any volunteers?

The singer is reportedly desperate to have a baby with her American football player beau and was delighted when a home pregnancy test revealed she was expecting a child. The couple were so excited by the news they immediately decided to tell Tony’s family, and were shocked by their furious reaction.

A source said: “There was a huge fight on July 18 at the Romo home. Jessica and Tony thought she was pregnant and happily announced it to the family. The news resulted in dead silence. Then Tony’s dad Ramiro said, ‘You’re not married. This is crazy!’ Tony’s mom Joan joined in, demanding, ‘How can you do this to us?’’

Jessica, 28, is said to have been devastated at the family’s response, especially as she was later forced to admit she had made a mistake after allegedly misreading the test.

Allegedly being the operative word. I mean it’s not exactly complicated to read a pregnancy test is it? And don’t you get the instructions twice…once on the box and once of the little pamphlet inside? Perhaps it was more like wishful thinking, or something.

The admired pop star Britney Spears is getting back on track after a break down in public in the start of 2008. In her interview to America’s OK! Magazine she said that she wants her boys: Sean Preston and Jayden James to stay away from the entertainment industry for as long as possible. She also narrated that her life was greatly affected because of entering the entertainment industry at an early age. It was her first interview in more than a year.
It should also be noted that she joined the entertainment industry when she was just eleven years of age. Her first shot at fame was “The New Mickey Mouse Club” produced by Disney.
