Pregnant Jennifer Garner shows off her growing baby bump while collecting daughter Violet from karate

By Laura Schreffler


Blooming: Jennifer Garner showed off her growing baby bump as she collected her daughter Violet from karate class today


She and husband Ben Affleck announced they were expecting their third child just over a couple of months ago.

And it seems Jennifer Garner's baby bump is blossoming fast.

The 39-year-old actress showed off her growing tummy in a white T-shirt and bright red cardigan as she picked up her daughter Violet from karate class this afternoon in Los Angeles.


A short denim skirt and flat black ballet pumps completed the look.

The hands on mother smiled broadly as she walked with her five-year-old who skipped alongside her happily.

At one point, the little girl even kept her mother amused by demonstrating a few martial arts moves.

Hands on: Garner is regularly seen taking her two children on fun family outings together in Los Angeles

However, there was no sign of the actress's other daughter, two-year-old Seraphina today.

Earlier Garner had stepped out for a coffee at the Brentwood Country Mart in California, where she strolled along chatting on her phone.

The star, who is thought to be around five or six months pregnant, recently told Ellen DeGeneres that she wouldn't mind having a third daughter as she grew up in a household of three girls.

'It would be so weird to have a boy,' she said, before adding that it would also be 'cool' and 'different.'

The lone man of the household, husband of six years Ben, is also currently hard at work filming Argo in Los Angeles.

Meanwhile, Olivia Wilde, co-star in the actress's forthcoming film Butter, said Garner should 'keep breeding.'

'She makes pretty babies,' Wilde raved to Us Weekly this week, before adding, 'She was such an awesome co-star and a wonderful producer.'

Both actresses appear in the upcoming film about a young orphan who discovers an odd talent for creating butter sculptures in the Iowa town where her adoptive family lives.

She's pitted against Garner, who plays the ambitious wife of reigning champion Bob Pickler (Modern Family star Ty Burrell) in the annual butter sculpture competition.

Ashley Greene, Alicia Silverstone and Hugh Jackman also appear in the ensemble comedy, which hits American theatres October 21.

Single girl Jennifer Lopez goes hell for leather in skin tight leather trousers and a sexy

By Laura Schreffler


Dayglow J.Lo: Jennifer Lopez stepped out wearing a racy outfit in NYC today

The On The Floor singer looked stunning in skin tight leather trousers, black flats and a white top, through which a bright dayglow green bra was clearly visible.

A pair of 1950s style white sunglasses completed the look, along with a couple of cuff style bracelets.

The singer strolled arm in arm with a female friend as they hit Madison Avenue for some shopping and famous Italian eatery Nello.

Fur real: The I'm Real singer wore a fur stole while leaving a Soho recording studio with Will.i.am

Twinset: The 42-year-old singer and her pal match on their day out

Later, the star threw on an ultra-glamorous fur shrug while stepping out of a Soho recording studio with Black Eyed Peas singer Will.i.am.

Lopez has clearly been making the most of her single status since splitting from Anthony in July.

She recently displayed some sexy moves on the dance floor at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas after performing at the iHeartRadio music festival where she drew admiring glances from male revellers.

Blinding grin: The American Idol judge is wearing a huge grin. Is it because of her bling or Bradley Cooper?

Furry good: The star later sported a fur stole around her white top

Rumours surfaced earlier this month when the I'm Real singer was caught having dinner with ladies man Bradley Cooper, although he has since denied it was a date.

The newly single star will get even steamier when she and Enrique Iglesias release a new duet, Mouth 2 Mouth.

The song is all about desire as the two trade sultry lyrics over a dance beat.

The spicy pair will be heard jointly singing the lyrics: 'I can't catch a single breath, baby.

'Help me now, help me now/Hurry up it's killing me the way I need your mouth to mouth, mouth to mouth. I swear you make me feel alive. I swear you bring me back to life.'

Unemployed Spencer Pratt heads to university after being shunned by Hollywood (and Heidi Montag tags along too)

By Jade Watkins


A new reality: Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt were spotted at the University Of Southern California today, where he is said to have enrolled in a political science degree


He once starred in the most popular reality show on TV, but Spencer Pratt is getting used to life as a Hollywood outcast.

The 28-year-old, once the confident and conniving villain in the MTV show The Hills', has enrolled in a political science degree after conceding his television career is over.

He was seen roaming the grounds of prestigious college University Of Southern California this week.

His wife and former Hills co-star Heidi Montag, who clearly has plenty of time on her hands following her own failed pop and TV projects, tagged along for support.


In their dressed down attire, the pair could have easily passed as any regular college kids.

Make-up free Heidi wore a light blue tank T-shirt, a pair of ripped jeans and some converse shoes for the occasion.

Meanwhile Spencer, who once boasted a $1 million wardrobe, was in a pair of navy cargo pants and a light blue shirt.

He paired the look with a USC baseball cap and attempted to look studious carrying a backpack.

Student: The 28-year-old was seen strolling around the college grounds with his 25-year-old wife Heidi after finishing his classes for the day

Their outing comes as it was reported this week that Spencer has a huge mounting debt and his agents are refusing to get him work.

According to Us Weekly, the villainous reality star owes many of his agents commissions to the tune of 'hundreds of thousands of dollars'.

It was reported that Spencer is so unliked in the showbiz world, that his agents never answer him when he calls.

'They just laugh at him or pick up and hang up,' a source told the magazine.

But Spencer friends have told TMZ that the claims are untrue, the former reality star never had an agent in the first place.

Party time: Earlier this month Speidi were spotted in Las Vegas to celebrate her 25th birthday

According to sources, Spencer only ever hired a lawyer to negotiate his contracts for The Hills.

Heidi on the otherhand does have an agent, who is currently helping the blonde negotiate 'a couple of projects in the works.'.

And it appears that she's going to need it, as the couple are quickly running out of their short-lived fame and have tried anything and everything to hold onto it.

Last month, in an interview with the Daily Beast, they admitted their break-up, divorce petition and eventual reconciliation was all staged in a last-ditch effort to hold on to their fame.

Voluptuous: Heidi Montag looked considerably curvier at her birthday party held at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas

'At that point, we were pulling our last cards,' Spencer told the website. 'We felt the hot-air balloon losing its gas. And at that stage, our income would be selling the photo that would go along with the divorce.

Speidi earned thousands at one point for creating staged photoshoots with paparazzi but as interest in them and their bizarre antics dwindled they began to run out of funds fast.

Heidi estimated she spent $2million on her ill-fated pop career, while her husband has a $1million wardrobe.

Spencer claimed that he once bought an expensive truck that he was filmed driving in one episode of The Hills that he never used again.

Can you hear me: Heidi seems to shout at her husband but he appears oblivious

The couple, who used to dine at the most exclusive Hollywood restaurants and party at the hottest clubs, now spend their days holed up in Santa Barbara watching movies and eating Mexican food.

And Heidi said she regretted her infamous ten procedures in one day plastic surgery saga.

Heidi found fame in 2006 as the sidekick of star Lauren Conrad on the MTV reality series.

Spencer joined the show in season two as Heidi's love interest, driving a wedge between Heidi and Lauren's friendship But by season six the show's ratings had dropped, and Spencer had fallen out of favour with the show's producers.

He was banned after getting into a highly-publicised fight with producer Sara Mast.

In the Daily Beast interview he told his side of the story, describing an incident where he claimed Mast encouraged him to become violent with his sister and co-star Stephanie Pratt, allegedly referencing the infamous Jersey Shore incident in which Nicole 'Snooki' Polizzi was punched by a male stranger in a bar.

'That’s when I snapped,' Spencer told The Daily Beast. 'To the point when I said - and this is when the producers got scared of me -

"You want me to punch my sister in the face? Are you trying to get me to kill you?" I didn’t say, "I’m killing you." If I did, MTV would have had me arrested.'

MTV declined to comment on the claims.

Spencer said he tried to encourage his co-stars to copy the Jersey Shore formula and make the show more real.

Antics: Last year Spencer grew an unmanageable beard in a bid to get attention

'I was always, like, "Audrina, you hate Kristin [Cavallari]! You guys were just screaming at each other before the cameras turned on! The second the camera turns on, you guys are hugging and being all civil!

If you guys just were real, we’d have the No. 1 show on TV!"

Pratt said he was cautioned by producers for trying to encourage his castmates to 'be more entertaining,'

Kim Kardashian has a whale of a time (in impossibly high heels) as she joins Kourtney and little Mason at the aquarium

By Laura Schreffler


Keep up! Kim Kardashian wore seriously high heels for a day out with sister Kourtney and nephew Mason Dash Disick at the Mystic Aquarium in Connecticut yesterday


Kim Kardashian may now be a married woman who wants children of her own, and today got a taste of parenting life on a family trip to an aquarium.

The 30-year-old reality star enjoyed some time away from New York City yesterday when she, sister Kourtney and nephew Mason Dash Disick took a field trip in Mystic, Connecticut.

From the sound of things, the brunette beauty had a fabulous time away from the hustle and bustle of Manhattan, though she may have not have been dressed entirely appropriately to play with marine animals.


She wore a floor-length, brightly-coloured paisley dress with a gaping neckline; a brown belt accentuated her tiny waist.

While her dress may have had a 'mystical' flair, her outrageously high heels must have made walking nearly impossible.

Still, the newlywed seemed to have had an amazing time, if her tweets were any indication.

'Drove out to Mystic, CT & took Masey to the Aquarium here! I love it here! We touched penguins, sharks, sea lions & even a whale!!!' she wrote.

Animal magnetism: The newlywed got to bond with Rocky the Beluga whale

She also tweeted a photo where she appeared to be ready to smooch a seahorse, writing: 'All I want for Christmas is a sea horse! I've always wanted one!'

Her older sister Kourtney also enjoyed the day, though she was dressed far more properly for the outing.

The 32-year-old wore comfortable yet chic black boots over black leggings. She also paired a floaty white blouse under a cropped blazer, a thick red necklace her only accessory.

Nearly two-year-old Mason was also fashion-friendly in adorable red booties, a green sweatshirt, white T-shirt and tiny blue jeans.

Let me touch him! Kim took a hands on approach

'Thanks for the memories Mystic, Connecticut! The aquarium and seaport were very special! @KimKardashian and I enjoyed,' the diminutive Kardashian tweeted of her day.

In addition to playing with seahorses, the trio got to see seals up close and even stroke 'Rocky' the Beluga whale.

After their adventure, they wandered over to a local toy store to check out Halloween goods before heading back to the Big Apple.

Yes, you will definitely be seeing their fun day trip on an episode of their E! reality show, Kim and Kourtney Take New York: every moment of their journey was filmed.

Kristen Stewart flashes some Snow White flesh as she films soaking wet beach scenes for new adventure movie

By Eleanor Gower


It has been billed as a re-imagined and slightly twisted version of the fairytale classic.

And judging by today's on-set photographs of movie Snow White and the Huntsman, it certainly seems pretty far removed from Disney's fluffy cartoon take on the story.

Still smiling: Despite being wet Kristen Stewart was seen with a big smile as she filmed scenes from Snow White and the Huntsman

Leading lady Kristen Stewart spent the day soaking wet and showing a good few inches of flesh as she shot scenes for the film on a Welsh beach.

The actress looked to be taking part in some particularly dramatic scenes on the sands, and hoisted her soaking wet gown on as she walked along.

Wet and wild: Kirsten was being sprayed with water and wet costume stuck to her body showing off her curves

Flesh flash: Kristen Stewart shows off her shoulders as she filmed new movie Snow White and the Huntsman in Wales earlier today

After one scene, she was sitting alongside a stunning white horse, which was attended to by crew members.

In a contrast from yesterday in which she was seen sporting heavy armour, Stewart wore a long medieval style gown over long brown boots, with her hair loose around her shoulders.

Her hair also looked to be a darker shade than familiar to fans of the Twilight franchise.

Drama: The actress looks to be sitting alongside her white horse on the beach as part of a particularly dramatic scene on the beach


Life's a beach: The 21-year-old actress strolled along the beach in a soaking wet gown, at one point, holding up the dress as she strolled along some rocks

The white stuff: Stewart is shot filming a scene with the magnificent white horse

She seemed more than comfortable on horseback, although may have used a stunt double to canter across the beach for one bareback shot.

The actress was clearly having to maintain a wet and dishevelled look, with an assistant spraying her down with a water gun at one point.

Never with with children or animals: Kristen turned away as the horse relieved himself

Horse power: The actress sat astride her white horse as she waited for the scene to begin

Epic: The film promises to be an all-action telling of the classic fairytale

She also needed the crew's help to clamber over a rocky incline.

It wasn't all intense focus for the star though. She was later spotted breaking into a smile in a rest between scenes on a rocky section of the shore.

In another scene, she was spotted emerging from the sea in her gown - perhaps after a very refreshing dip, considering the cold Welsh waters.

New movie: Stewart stars alongside Chris Hemsworth and Ian McShane in the fantasy style film

Striking scene: Stewart, or possibly her stunt lookalike rides bareback across the sands for a stunning scene in the film

Stewart stars as Snow White alongside Australian actor Chris Hemsworth, who appears as male lead, The Huntsman.

In a twist on the children's fairy tale, the film follows the story of the Huntsman ordered to take Snow White into the woods to be killed.

However, he winds up becoming her protector and mentor in a quest to vanquish the Evil Queen.

Time for more water: Kristen achieves the wet look with the help pf a crew member

Staying soaked: At one point a member of the crew sprays a rather shocked Stewart to make her stay wet for the seaside scene

Rock climbing: Stewart gets some help walking over the rocks from several members of the crew

Clamber: The Twilight star looked intensely focused as she walked over the rocks in one scene, although she broke into a smile when the footage was finished

The movie stars Charlize Theron as the Evil Queen and Ian McShane, Eddie Izzard, Bob Hoskins, Toby Jones and Ray Winstone among the dwarves.

Stewart recently revealed that she was not initially attracted to the role of Snow White, but became interested after realising the new version was a very different take on the classic character.

And action! The star is filmed with her dress sleeveless around the shoulders on the rocky incline

The sea the sea! Stewart wore a long black coat over her gown as she strode through the cold Welsh waters

'She truly does not let her heart cloud her mind,' the Twilight actress told Entertainment Weekly earlier this summer. 'Also I get to have a sword and stuff, and really cool weapons.

'This girl has the amazing ability to channel fear, things that people are typically afraid to do, into this really focused, really charged, driving energy,' she added.

Drenched: Stewart emerges from the ocean soaked to the skin, with her wet hair bedraggled down her back

Morning light: Stewart shares a joke with a female crew member as the sun starts to come up over the beach

The film - the first in a planned trilogy - is slated to be released in cinemas next year.

Stewart also appears as MaryLou in the adaptation of Jack Kerouac film On the Road, and stars in penultimate Twilight instalment Breaking Dawn, which will be released in November.

All dried off: The actress was also spotted with her hair and gown dry, in what was surely a more comfortable look, along with walking down the beach in a large black wrapped

'Eaten and spat out!' Dannii Minogue reveals her true thoughts on the X Factor as she promotes her new fashion book

By KIRSTY MCCORMACK

My Style: Dannii spoke of her fashion blunders during an interview on ITV1's This Morning

She may have moved on from her role as panel judge, but it seems that Dannii Minogue still has the X Factor on her mind.

The Aussie star has claimed that there is never a happy ending for the show's judges and that her and Cheryl Cole are proof of that.

The 39-year-old singer songwriter, who gave birth to her son, Ethan, in July 2010, never wanted to leave the UK show.


Looking good: Aussie star, Dannii Minogue, promoted her new book at Waterstones in Bluewater wearing navy blue maxi dress

The star revealed her feelings during an interview on Heart FM.

‘It does eat all of us up and spit us out at the end,' she said.

Dannii, sister of pop star Kylie Minogue, went on to explain why she never returned for this year's talent show.

'The dates of the filming got put back twice and I'd already started Australia's Got Talent by the time they said, "Ok, here it is - let's do the show",' she said.

'It would've meant me flying back and forth from Australia once a week for ten weeks with a one-year-old child.


Mother-of-one: Dannii arrived at the ITV studios wearing a midi-length blue dress that was covered in a bird print


Front and back: Dannii looked radiant as she stepped out in the sunshine wearing a summer dress

‘I'd just got out of hospital three days before having my appendix out and I was like, "I'm sorry but it's not possible.

Dannii's blunt ending to her X Factor career bears many similarities to Cheryl Cole's - who left the UK to join the U.S. panel, only to be struck off after a few weeks.

The statement will be a shock to members of the new panel - Gary Barlow, Kelly Rowland and Tulisa Contostavlos - who all seem to have settled into their new roles very well.


Happy to talk: the singer took time to speak to fans and sign autographs when she was in London today


Mummy's boy: Dannii, pictured here with her son Ethan on the Australian X Factor, said on This Morning that she is constantly doing video calls with the tot


In the past: the former X Factor judge told Heart FM that her and Cheryl Cole had been 'eaten and spat out' by the show
