Maddox Jolie-Pitt: Movie Star?

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comAugust 16, 2011 //

Will and Jada Pinkett-Smith aren’t the only parents in town who can turn their oldest son into an action star before his 12th birthday. Apparently, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have the same path in mind for Maddox Jolie-Pitt. Brad has apparently named Maddox for the lead role in “Battling Boy,” his production company’s adaptation of a graphic novel about a kid who is the son of a god. The movie is on track to be in theaters by 2013. I could squawk, call this nepotism, and say, “Hey Brad, let some other kids audition,” but the truth is that I’ve always thought Maddox was the awesomest with his mohawk and rad style. I’ll just hope Shiloh is next for the action star treatment. [Huffington Post] Keep reading »

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comMay 13, 2011 //

Celebrities come up the most insane baby names. Where do they ge their inspiration? Duh! From Gary Busey. In this sketch for “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” Gary consults with famous folk over the phone for $2.17 a minute to come up with names like “Papaya Aquarium” and “Snuggie Hammerhead.” “I’m Gary Busey and I name babies,” he explains. I wonder if he’s available to the non-famous among us? [NY Daily News] Keep reading »

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comMay 11, 2011 //

Katie Holmes has a new apprentice over at her super pricey label, Holmes & Yang. And her apprentice’s name is Bella Cruise. Yes, as in Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman‘s adopted daughter, who is now 18. And Tom couldn’t be prouder. “Kate’s designing and [Bella] is just working her way up. She’s an artist, Bella, so it’s really great that she gets to work with it. She’s loving it,” he said. Even though Tom isn’t exactly sure what “it” is. “This is my wife’s company, so you talk about movie sets with me, I can tell you [about] that,” he joked when asked exactly what Bella does. Judging by the term “apprentice,” I’m going to assume that she’s using magic to make mops dance? Also, here’s hoping that her new job doesn’t lead her to gt rid of the blue hair.

“This was a result of a horrible relationship that went sour. I was in love—he was in love with money … A former very dear person to me did this. Set me up to make it look exactly what it looks like. God will smite them yes. But it’s really not what it looks like. People will do anything for money which is extremely sad, and I’m very hurt by this … All I can do now, is keep my head up high, keep looking towards the lord.

—Bobbi Kristina Brown, the 18-year-old daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, responds to the images of her allegedly snorting cocaine that ran in the National Enquirer this week. If it’s not what it looks like—what exactly is it? [Vibe Magazine] Keep reading »

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comFebruary 9, 2011 //

“She gave a boy in her class my cellphone number. He calls me and says, ‘Hey, Mr. Wahlberg, I’m taking your daughter to the movies.’ I’m like, what? Seven years old! I say at least seven more years. He’s seven too and I’m like, ‘Okay, let me talk to your father.’ So me and the father talk. We take them to the movies. They don’t say a word to each other.”

—Mark Wahlberg tells Jay Leno about how his daughter, Ella Ray, is starting to get interested in boys. I want to note that it takes one ballsy second-grader to ask Marky Mark if he can take out his daughter. Also, Mark revealed that he cried at “Toy Story 3″ and “Tangled.” Awww.

Nicole Richie Is Pissed That Paps Stake Out Her Daughter’s School

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comOctober 14, 2010 //

“THANK YOU so much for posting the video of your employees sitting outside of my daughter’s school, because now the entire world can see how creepy and disgusting you are. You do not get to spend 200 dollars on a camera, and think that gives you a free pass to shadow my child. These are strangers, grown men, stalking young children. You think that’s ok? Here’s a better visual: Pulling up to school and seeing grown men slouched in black windowed cars outside of a preschool, all day. I’m not even there, so you cannot say you are following me as you always do.”

—Nicole Richie has declared war on X17 on her blog, after getting sick of seeing photographers outside Harlow’s preschool. She’s vowed to do a background check on every photographer there. You go, Nicole! [NY Daily News] Keep reading »

Has Willow Smith Started A Painted Ear Trend?

Annika HarrisJuly 26, 2010 //

Willow Smith hit up her brother Jayden’s “Karate Kid” premiere with one outer ear painted a pewter color. She inherited her father Will Smith’s ears, but instead of rushing to pin them back or covering them with a lock of hair, Willow has decided to accentuate her ear with paint. As someone with an ear tattoo, I like the idea of decorating ears in non-traditional ways. [7/25/10] Keep reading »
