Preview of The Real Housewives of BH reunion special (fights! spoilers!)

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 09:29 AM PST


There’s a new preview clip out of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion airing next week, and it looks explosive! There’s a lot of yelling, blaming and shaming and I have to say these bitches bring it way more than any of their predecessors in the cheaper states.

To start, Camille tells the host guy that “this whole season was set up to make me look bad,” as if she didn’t do a good enough job of that on her own. Then they ask Kyle if she bullies her sister, Kim, and Camille gets called out by Kyle for starring in soft porn. It looks epic and will air in a two part special starting next Thursday and then Tuesday. Here are the details from Bravo:

From shopping sprees on Rodeo Drive to flying on private jets, the ladies of Bravo's "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" certainly showed how to live it up in the most famous zip code in the world. But it wasn't all glitz and glamour for these ladies. They also dealt with deep-rooted family drama and marriages falling apart at the seams all while trying to maintain the perfect Beverly Hills lifestyle. On Thursday, January 27 at 9pm ET/PT join Bravo's Andy Cohen as he brings Taylor Armstrong, Camille Grammer, Adrienne Maloof , Kim Richards, Kyle Richards and Lisa Vanderpump together for "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Reunion Special." The ladies set the record straight on some of the most talked-about moments of the season – including Camille being called "the most hated housewife" in the history of the franchise as well as details on her split from Kelsey. In the Part II of the reunion, the Husbands of Beverly Hills join Andy Cohen and the ladies for some laughs, some tears and a lot more drama – and the Richards sisters finally discuss the history behind their brutal fight that ended the season. Tune in on a new night Tuesday, February 1 at 10pm ET/PT for the supersized special.

I’ve heard before that Lisa confronted Kim about her drinking - The National Enquirer had that scoop a few weeks ago and I won’t mention more about it. Also, is Lisa’s husband talking about fighting with Cedric?! I hope not, because how could Cedric say he hated the Vanderpumps after all they did for him? Maybe it was about that fight that some drunk guy got in with Lisa at a bar. (Also, is Cedric’s life story a load of crap or is it legit?)

We still have one more Real Housewives to look forward to this Thursday even before these reunion specials. The finale will air tomorrow night and I can’t wait!

Cate Blanchett in Dries Van Noten: classic elegance, or too androgynous?

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 08:49 AM PST

It's been forever and a day since we've had new Cate Blanchett photos. She's been in Australia for a while, doing plays and being a mom and running a theatre with her husband. So these photos are so wonderful - she was in Switzerland to shill a watch, just like Gwyneth was. But notice the difference in style - where Goopy looked like a greasy mess clinging to youth through Botox and a frilly, girly dress, Cate looks stylish, classic, mature-yet-ageless and impeccable. The outfit is Dries Van Noten - I love when she wears a menswear-inspired look. So chic.

A few more people were there for this watch launch or whatever. Matthew Fox is rocking new facial hair. I kind of hate it.

And Elle Macpherson overdressed completely. She's trying to draw attention away from La Blanchett, and it's just not happening. You have to be a delusional, narcissistic bitch to think that you can draw attention away from Cate.

Charlie Sheen is back to hiring multiple hookers, but can he even get it up?

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 08:30 AM PST

CB has been doing most of Charlie Sheen stories lately, so I'll admit to being somewhat out of touch with the daily catastrophe of Charlie Sheen. There was something about an ear STD, right? And now he's not even showing up for work…? Yeah. Well, it comes as no surprise, but Radar is starting a new round of Charlie-hiring-some-hookers stories. It's all pretty much what you would expect - Charlie Sheen is coked out of his mind and hiring multiple hookers because why not? It's not like he's a father or he has any kind of personal or professional obligations. Oh, right. Anyway, as I was glancing through Radar's latest report, I noticed all of the cash that seems to be flowing like cocaine up a rolled-up $100 bill. Charlie Sheen is spending A LOT of money on his hookers. He's even buying them special presents! Such a gentleman.

A drugged-up Charlie Sheen spent $26,000 on three escorts from one Las Vegas agency during his infamous weekend bender in Las Vegas, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned. What’s more, the Two and a Half Men star was so smitten with one hooker who goes by the pseudonym ‘Ginger’ that he paid her $10,000 for a four-hour sex romp, according to a source with knowledge of the situation.

He also purchased Ginger — who he found on a website and emailed her, touting his ‘A-List’ status — a brand new pair of Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses! Sheen, 45, showered two other escorts with $8,000 each in separate and earlier trysts.

The actor booked Ginger from 9am on Monday, January 10, meeting him inside the $40,000-a-night Sky Villa that he rented at the Fantasy Tower at the Palms Casino Resort in Vegas.

“Ginger said Charlie was high on cocaine when she got to the room and continued to do drugs in front of her,” the source told RadarOnline.com. “He was totally out of it and clearly had been partying all night long.”

Ginger left the hotel at around 1pm.

Sheen’s rendezvous with the escort was during the same weekend bender in which he hung out with at least three porn stars including Bree Olson, as well as Jesse James’ ex-mistress Michelle ‘Bombshell’ McGee.

The troubled Hollywood star returned to Los Angeles the day after his wild sex session with Ginger, flying back on his private jet and to the set of the hit CBS sitcom.

“Charlie told Ginger this wasn’t just a one night stand and that he plans to reconnect with her during the next time he is in Las Vegas,” the source added. “From what she has said, she had a very good time with her and she is just his type.”

While Ginger advertises herself online as an independent escort, she actually works for a major Las Vegas agency, revealed the insider. On the website, which pimps out women to men that can afford their pricey services, Ginger asks possible suitors: “Are you looking for an unforgettable experience?”

The woman who is said to be 21-years-of-age also touted herself as offering “100% great service!”

[From Radar]

Here's my question - and you'll have to excuse me, I've never done coke - after all of that cocaine, would Charlie even be able to get it up? I know some people (coughcoughPamGriercough) get all coked up to screw, but can we all agree that Charlie is taking it to a new level? I mean, the image I have of him is with a bottle of tequila in one hand and a mountain of coke in the other. It seems like he would be too blitzed to even function in general, much less get hard (and maintain it).

So… what is Charlie paying these women for, if he in fact can't get it up? It honestly sounds like an okay deal. $8,000 for four hours of sitting around a fancy Vegas suite, watching Charlie do drugs and maybe catching up on some catalog shopping.

Justin Timberlake is still trying to hook up with Olivia Munn, allegedly

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 08:01 AM PST

wenn5585102

Back in November, Us Weekly had the "scoop" that Justin Timberlake had screwed around on Jessica Biel. What was new about this particular report? They had a name - Olivia Munn, that unfunny chick who somehow got a gig on The Daily Show. As I went through the full Us Weekly cover story at the time, it became pretty clear that the story/gossip had originated from Team Munn, if not Olivia herself. All of the quotes were about poor, betrayed Olivia and how Justin Timberlake had viciously lied to Olivia about his relationship with Jessica being over and done, and how he had just used her for sex, etc. Justin denied the story, and Olivia played some games with the other magazines, getting her rep to say stuff like "Olivia doesn't comment on her personal life" and "Who?" (I'm paraphrasing). Anyway, another chapter, via Life & Style/HuffPo:

Justin Timberlake is up to some old tricks in the New Year. Though he denied reports last fall that he cheated on longtime girlfriend Jessica Biel, 28, with actress Olivia Munn, Life & Style has learned he’s still reaching out to Olivia. Over New Year’s weekend, an insider reveals, the Perfect Couples star, 30, was showing her phone to a few friends.

“She had several new text messages from Justin on it,” the insider says. “They’d all been sent very recently, the last few weeks of December.”

And they were hardly innocent.

“One said, ‘My relationship is basically over,’ ” says the insider to Life & Style. “The other said, ‘I’m thinking about you.’ There was part of a third that said something like, ‘You don’t understand how hard it is.’ I didn’t see that entire text, so I’m not sure how that sentence ended.”

A rep for Justin, 29, declined to comment. Olivia, says the insider, is texting back - yet keeping her distance.

“She’s super flattered,” says the insider, “but she’s not stupid. She’s not expecting it to go anywhere - but she’d love it if it did!”

[From Huffington Post]

Once again, it sounds like the story is coming from Team Munn. What is it with this chick? I mean, yes, JT is a douchebag and a cheater and a liar. No question. And Jessica Biel should totally dump him, but it's pretty clear that Biel lets him do whatever and whoever he wants as long as they still get to be a "couple". So what is Olivia getting out of it? My honest-to-God theory is that she really does want to be JT's jumpoff, and she's trying to publicly push him into either dumping Jessica or getting Jessica to dump him. She really is intensely stupid.

L&S: Sandra Bullock chose her baby over Ryan Reynolds

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 07:33 AM PST

1105finalcover

Life & Style has an interesting take on all of those Ryan Reynolds-Sandra Bullock stories. I don't why this didn't occur to me, but their cover story theorizes that Sandy and Ryan were perhaps hooking up, but that Sandy called the thing off when she decided to "choose" her son over a potential lover. That… makes sense, doesn't it? I could totally see it going down like that.

Sandra Bullock is single again. After starting the new year full of promise with actor Ryan Reynolds in her adopted hometown of Austin, Texas, Sandra has made the agonizing decision to sacrifice her own happiness so she can devote herself fully and selflessly to her beloved 1-year-old son, Louis. Sandra's rep confirmed the budding relationship between The Proposal co-stars was no more on Jan. 14, telling Life & Style Sandra and Ryan "are literally nothing except friends."

It had seemed like a perfect match: Both endured painful splits in 2010 and reportedly found comfort in each other's arms during romantic jaunts to Sandra's cozy Jackson Hole, Wyo., house and a lunch date with Louis at Sandra's sister's bakery in Austin. But sadly, Sandra couldn't follow her heart and let herself fall completely.

"They like each other," says an insider to Life & Style. "While there is a spark, it's not happening now. It can't. They're done."

Instead, Sandra seems to have decided to focus all of her love and attention on Louis — who'll always be the No. 1 man in her life.

"Ryan's not my lover," Sandra confessed at the Golden Globe Awards on Jan. 16 in LA. "Louis' all I can handle."

[From Life & Style]

Sounds like Sandra is still struggling with the idea of how to date as a single mother. Which I will buy. Of course, I also bought that she and Ryan were probably hooking up, however briefly, and I'll buy that they are not hooking up currently. Maybe it's less about Louis and more about Ryan being bad in bed? Does anyone else think Ryan seems like he would be a crappy lover? Just me?

Brooklyn Decker in Esquire: dumb as a box of hair, or just really young?

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 07:14 AM PST

esquire1

Brooklyn Decker is the February cover girl for Esquire Magazine, likely to promote her debut film role in Just Go With It, that trainwreck-looking film starring Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston (which will probably do really well at the box office). Esquire even did a nipply NSFW photo too - you can see it here, at Celebslam. Anyway, normally I wouldn't give a fig about Brooklyn, but some of the interview excerpts are just too good. This chick should be thankful that she's blonde and pretty, because girlfriend is dumb as a box of hair.

On being a 23-year-old model: She sees it this way: She is twenty-three, just starting out. “I feel for you,” she says. “I really do. People are going to come up to you and say, ‘What did she do for you?’… And I’m a model. Okay? What are you going to talk about?” Here she jams a piece of bread in one side of her mouth and affects a deep, slippery Scooby-Doo kind of male voice, pinching one eye, whistling the words in mock seriousness: “How does it feel to get your hair and makeup done every day? How does it feel to be Photoshopped?” It’s supposed to be me, or Jimmy Cagney playing me. “It’s difficult for you,” she says, plucking an avocado from the grocery bag. We are early in the evening here — not one leaf of lettuce has been broken, not an onion chopped. “I’m not a politician. I’m a model. I’m not sure what I bring to the table for you.”

On not calling herself an actress yet: “Well, come on. How cheesy does that sound? I can’t say ‘actress’ unless someone says I’m halfway decent at it.”

On being told she plays a sympathetic character: “That means I did a good job, right?” “Good job” is something you tell a kid at soccer practice. And rhetorical questions, asked by a woman whose hair is the kind of blond that feels like the mother of everything blond, are generally not worth answering. But yes, good job, for what that’s worth. She plays a teacher, one who inexplicably dresses like a schoolgirl and somehow falls for Sandler’s muttering, closed-down, early-forties resignation routine. Brooklyn Decker: funny, unobligated, young. Right in there amongst Aniston, Kidman, and Sandler, each desperately tit-twisting the hell out of every laugh, Decker plays an honest-to-God clueless straight man. It’s a kind of good job, for sure. A first step, anyway. Add to that the fact that toward the end of the movie, she walks up out of the surf, rises from the surf, a towering monolith of slow-motioned, bikinied grace. Gratuitous, sure. But that really doesn’t hurt the case: good job.

On the bookshelf: a set of framed photos. Brooklyn Decker with her crew from home, pressed shoulder to shoulder, all five of them in a chin-lifted woot! to the world. “That’s really me,” she says. “These are my best friends. That’s who I am.” She nods at a photo of Roddick, standing near an arena exit with another man, seemingly out of earshot of anything like a woot. “This is my husband,” she says. Then she laughs. “Look, I’m with sorority girls, and look at him: He’s with, I don’t know, Woody Allen, or the Dalai Lama.” I lean in for a look. “Is that Woody Allen?” She turns away. She was illustrating a point. “Or Shaq. I don’t know. He meets people. He’s one of those people, you know?”

A Nicole Kidman story: “Nicole Kidman taught me how to look into the sun while shooting.” Brooklyn lays her hands flat on the counter. If this is some mock seriousness, I cannot tell. “You close your eyes,” she says. She does this much and waits. After a moment, she opens her eyes for a quizzical look at me. “Close them.” She means my eyes. She’s teaching now. We’re supposed to be looking into the sun, though I am looking straight at her face. She talks to me like a Pilates instructor: “Keep them closed, face the sun. Straight at it. Then, as soon as they call ‘rolling,’ right before ‘action,’ take your eyes down to the camera, line up your sight, and then open them.” She’s speaking to me. “Open them,” she says. “Really. Do it.” When I open my eyes, I find that she is leaning in a little, over the kitchen counter, arms folded under her breasts, smiling. “Open them like that,” she says, “and the dark of the camera should help your eyes adjust.” She is about two feet from my craggy face, staring right into my crusty, bloodshot eyes, smiling. There is no camera. And she’s right. My eyes adjust just fine, thanks.

Brooklyn's advice for men: “Men need to learn to put everything on the table,” she says. “Just put everything on the table. And when it comes to the game playing, enough… With females,” she says, then she starts again. “With women, when you’re in your twenties, it’s all about game playing. Men could get ahead of women if they’d just throw everything out on the table. Cut to the chase.”

Men in their 20s: “In their twenties men just want, want, want, want, want.” She puts a little salad on her plate with the chicken, just one leaf. “Don’t make everybody deal with your want all the time. It gets so old. You know? I don’t want to change anybody,” she tells me. “But there is that.”

Roddick is 25: “After twenty-five,” she says, “it’s just throw the ego out the door.”

[From Esquire]

Well… at least she doesn't sound mean. I would guess that there's not a cruel bone in her body, which is nice. It’s better to be dumb and sweet as opposed to dangerously and cruelly stupid. But yes, she's not very bright, and she's very young, and people have probably always just emphasized her beauty and she never developed anything in the way of an interesting personality. It's fine. But it's also a little bit funny that this girl who every guy’s fantasy can barely string two coherent sentences together.

OK!: Pregnant and Betrayed: Khloe Kardashian and Kate Hudson

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 06:48 AM PST

okmag1
When you read: “Pregnant and Betrayed!” you think that someone cheated on their poor pregnant partner, like Tiki Barber with the intern when his wife was pregnant with twins. Only OK!’s new cover story featuring Khloe Kardashian and Kate Hudson has no cheating at all, and it kind of a letdown. First, there’s Kate Hudson, whose biological dad is said to be shopping a tell all that isn’t very positive about his time with Kate’s mom, Goldie Hawn. (Goldie and Kate’s dad Bill Hudson were married from 1976-1980 and had Kate, 31, and Oliver, 34, together.) According to OK!, that’s got Kate all bummed out and all, but she’s trying to keep a level head about it for the sake of her baby. They quote a source who says “Obviously, she’s mortified. She thinks it’s a betrayal on so many levels. It’s the last thing she needs to be dealing with when she’s trying to have a calm pregnancy… she tries to wave off drama and negative energy. She thinks it’s bad for the baby.

The real detail in this story is the fact that Kate’s partner and the father of her baby, British rocker Matthew Bellamy, 32, is on board with the pregnancy and isn’t opposed to marriage. The “source” tells OK! “Matthew wants to [marry Kate] and has made his intentions known, but as of now, it’s not happening.” It sounds like a vague idea and not a real engagement, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they made an announcement soon.

The Khloe Kardashian story is unintentionally hysterical though, because Khloe wasn’t betrayed by her professional athlete husband or her jealous sisters - she was betrayed by some mean ‘ol executives at E! who made her change back her hair color for shooting purposes! I’m serious, and Khloe is supposedly super pissed off that she was told she’d have to go back to brown to make sure her reality show had continuity or whatever. This story states Khloe’s pregnancy as if it’s a fact, when all we’ve heard are rumors so far and no confirmation. Here’s the story from OK!, which cracked me up:

Title: Khloe Fights Back
Subtitle: It should be the time of her life - but expectant mom Khloe Kardashian Odom is battling those who’ve turned against her…

Khloe’s life seems the very definition of “having it all.”

So why is the star so upset? It all started when Khloe colored her hair. After carrying around a photo of a redhead for months, she finally took the leap. Khloe was thrilled with her new look - until network bosses at E! forced her to go back to brunette.

“She can’t dye her hair because it messes up filming and production,” a pal tells OK!. “They can’t shoot out of sequence or edit later if they have to match her hair. Khloe was p*ssed.”

So she tweeted to nearly 2.3 million followers: “I HATE being told what to do… So not happy right now…”

According to a source, E! even ordered her to take a Twitter time-out until she calmed down.

[From OK! Magazine, print edition, January 30, 2011]

So much drama over a haircolor change. Khloe gets paid thousands an episode and is bitching that she can’t change her hair because it messes up the fake plotlines producers are trying to create. If I worked for E! and they wanted me to shave my head I would. (Note to E!: particularly if it involves working with Joel McHale.)

I don’t mean to totally trash OK! There are some good diet and fitness tips in this week’s issue featuring Reese Witherspoon. (They don’t say it’s from her trainer, but there are still solid tips in there.) Plus they have a lot of exclusives on the new Teen Moms. I haven’t watched the new season yet.

Photos of Kate are from 11/8/10. Khloe is shown on 1/14/11. She’s back to brown now. Credit: WENN.com

Christina Aguilera ended up drunkenly passed out in Jeremy Renner’s bed

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 06:37 AM PST

wenn31710741

Have you ever passed out in a relative stranger's bed? I have. It's not a particular memory I like to relish, but one time I got so wasted, I passed out in my former professor's bed. He had to wake me up and tell me to go home. *shameface* Sigh… ah, to be in my early 20s again. That's why you go through that crap - so you won't make the same mistakes when you're 30 years old. Speaking of 30 year old alcoholics, Christina Aguilera got so wasted at Jeremy Renner's A-list 40th birthday bash that she passed out on his bed. Seriously.

Finding Christina Aguilera between his sheets was hardly a dream come true for Jeremy Renner. Popping up uninvited at Renner’s 40th birthday bash on January 8, the singer, 30, got “wasted” then lay down in the star’s bed, a source tells the new Us Weekly, out Wednesday.

A week later, Renner went on a rant about the incident at In Style’s Golden Globe party after seeing Aguilera at the fete.

“Someone comes and tells me she’s in my room,” he told pals at the Jan. 16 affair. “I run up and open the door and I’m like, ‘Um, hi. What are you doing?’ She just starts slurring. Her boyfriend [Matthew Rutler] was rubbing her back. Who comes to someone’s birthday party that they don’t know and gets in their bed?! My parents were there!”

Adds another source, “Christina was a mess at that party. She acted like a fool. Her boyfriend was shushing her and telling her to go to sleep.”

(Renner’s rep says that Aguilera “was enjoying herself, but she wasn’t in his bed.”)

[From Us Weekly]

Yeah, Christina and I are close in age, and by now, I know how to hold my liquor - for the most part, at least enough where I don't end up passed out in relative strangers' beds. At my age, if I'm getting all liquored up and getting into someone's bed, it's because I'm trying to bone them. And yes, I am looking at you, Jeremy Renner. And Michael Fassbender. And Clive Owen. And Gerard Butler. *singing “Tequila” to self*

But yeah, Christina is a hot mess. I predict a rehab announcement any day now.

Nicole Kidman’s “baby secret” takes the cover of People

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 06:17 AM PST

fp_6549993_goldenglobes_set2_rij_27_103

I'm not aiming for a repeat of yesterday's chaos and judgment and accusation-throwing. Suffice it to say, many of us have a difference of opinion on Nicole Kidman and her newborn baby girl, Faith Margaret. In any case, Nicole's happy baby news took the cover of People Magazine this week. I don't know if this was always going to happen, and TMZ just stepped on Nicole's formal People announcement, or if People Magazine just threw this cover story together quickly. The cover image certainly makes me think it happened really quickly, just because Nicole is positioned so awkwardly.

peoplemag1

For Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, the role of faith in their lives has never been more clear than since the arrival of new daughter Faith Margaret on Dec. 28.

The couple, both 43, announced their big news on Jan. 17, three weeks after the little girl was born to a gestational carrier at The Women’s Hospital at Centennial Medical Center in their adopted hometown of Nashville.

Faith Margaret takes her middle name from Kidman’s grandmother and her first from what her parents say they relied upon to fulfill their dream of expanding their family.

“They never gave up faith they’d have another child together,” says a friend of the couple. “They feel blessed.”

The new arrival, who is the couple’s biological child, joins big sister Sunday Rose, 2, and Kidman’s kids from her marriage to Tom Cruise, Isabella, 18, and Connor, 15.

Kidman has spoken openly in the past about her struggles to conceive daughter Sunday, telling PEOPLE in 2009 that she and Urban hoped to have more children if they could: “We always say, ‘If it’s God’s plan.’ ”

Now that the have added another daughter, says the friend, “they're just thrilled.”

For much more on the latest addition to Kidman and Urban’s family, pick up issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands Friday

[From People]

By the way, many of you were wondering what hot gossip commenter Camille had given me. I'm not saying this is true or anything, but Camille has an Australian source she considers unimpeachable who has basically implied that Nicole simply would not be capable to sustain a pregnancy for medical reasons. While that piece of (unconfirmed) gossip doesn't really have any bearing on little Faith's birth, it might have something to do with the (alleged) birth of Sunday Rose. I've always been a conspiracy theorist when it comes to Nicole, so I'll believe it. Some of you don't. That's fine.

Giuliana Rancic: Rachel Zoe and Posh are also super skinny and they got pregnant

Posted: 19 Jan 2011 05:57 AM PST

wenn3169739
I originally wanted to title this story: “Rachel Zoe is Giuliana Rancic’s pregnant thinspiration,” but that’s too controversial and not necessarily accurate. E! correspondent Giuliana has spoken about her pregnancy loss and covered her infertility battle and on her reality show with her husband, Bill Rancic. Last March, Giuliana was offended when Whoopi Goldberg said on The View that if she wanted to get pregnant she should follow her doctor’s orders to gain weight. Giuliana said back then that her doctor told her to gain at least 10 pounds, that she’d gained five, and that she didn’t want to gain more because she worked in an image-focused industry. Whoopi called her on it the next day, and Giuliana was pissed off.

Now Giuliana is continuing to hit back at critics who note that her thinness might be contributing to her infertility. She says that there are plenty of very thin women who conceive, like Victoria Beckham, Gisele Bundchen and Rachel Zoe, and that comments about her weight are hurtful:

Giuliana Rancic blamed herself when she suffered a miscarriage and tells RadarOnline.com that speculation her weight contributed to it is simply mean spirited and wrong.

In an emotional and exclusive new interview about her public and well-documented struggle to have a baby with husband Bill, she reveals the couple is taking a break from IVF and will consider adopting.

The TV host, 36, had a miscarriage last year and told RadarOnline.com: “As a woman you blame your body, you blame yourself, and I was riding that wave for a while and I was playing the blame game.

“Not for anything I was doing day to day, but (I wondered): Should Bill have married someone younger? Did I wait too long? Should I have had kids at a younger age?

“But that’s not what God wanted. The fact that I really do feel happier than I’ve felt in years, I feel like it really was part of a bigger plan, and I don’t know what that plan is but whatever it is, we’re fine with it.”

And when it comes to speculation that Giuliana is too thin to get pregnant, she scoffs and calls that talk “ignorant”, telling RadarOnline.com: “Look at Kelly Ripa! She’s half my size and has no body fat and has kids.

“Giselle (Bundchen) is a supermodel, and I’ve pinched her in real life just to see if she has body fat — zero body fat! Look at Victoria Beckham, she’s on her fourth child.

“It’s unbelievable to me the amount of ignorant comments that come in and it’s just uninformed ignorant people. Rachel Zoe is pregnant! To all the haters, get informed! Go Google it…it has nothing to do with anything.

“There are thin girls with infertility issues, normal sized girls with infertility issues and overweight girls with infertility issues. Unless your doctor tells you your weight is affecting you in some way…once the doctor rules it out, that’s really not it.”

Giuliana told RadarOnline.com that she and Bill are taking a break from the grueling schedule of IVF treatments they have been undergoing, choosing instead to focus on each other and their relationship.

[From Radar]

Giuliana said that she and Bill are open to adoption, but it doesn’t sound like they’ve started the process. I wish them the best, and it sounds absolutely heartbreaking to have to go through those treatments only to suffer a miscarriage. On the other hand, maybe she should stop rallying against people who say she’s too thin and just ignore it. She’s only encouraging more people to point out how tiny she is. I agree with her that it might not have anything to do with her fertility issues, but by making those issues so public of course she’s going to be criticized for her weight. She even admitted that she wasn’t willing to gain as much weight as her doctor told her to.

Giuliana and Bill are spokespeople for Fertility Lifelines, which encourages couples to get fertility treatments if they’re under 35 and have tried for a year or over 35 and have tried for six months. It’s sponsored by Merck, which has a ton of fertility drugs, so they probably got paid well for it.

Giuliana and Bill are shown on New Year’s and on 10/16/10. She is also shown on 1/16/11. Credit: WENN
