Jessica Simpson is looking FAB here! This is her latest Weight Watchers commercial. You would never know she gave birth within the last year to look at her here. Okay, I’m going to go there. Looking at those slightly grainy pictures of Jessica as a bridesmaid at BFF Cacee Cobb’s wedding, it looks like she’s picked up a little weight. Maybe the rumors are true.

For her first pregnancy, Jessica reportedly kept quiet because she was trying to negotiate a deal with a magazine to make the big announcement. Apparently a deal couldn’t be negotiated before she started showing. Maybe Jessica’s trying to negotiate a deal to announce baby #2? Or perhaps she wants to be married to Eric Johnson before announcing a new pregnancy. Then again, Weight Watchers could want her to keep quiet for as long as possible so they can run these commercial. Whatever the reason, I will not be surprised AT ALL if Jessica ultimately announces she’s expecting (or starts flaunting a baby bump). Check out the commercial below.

It sounds like things are getting serious between Taylor Swift and Harry Styles! Taylor reportedly has introduced Harry to her mother, Andrea. She is said to have made the introductions yesterday after Harry spent the night at Taylor’s home on Tuesday night. The three were seen leaving Taylor’s place to do some grocery shopping.

Taylor was also on hand when Harry got inked. Somehow, she managed to evade the paparazzi. Taylor reportedly chatted with a friend and played pool while Harry got his new tattoo.The tattoo was done by an artist who’s a good friend of them both: Ed Sheeran.

Katy Perry sent ex-husband Russell Brand a congratulatory message for having stayed off drugs for 10 years. A source told The Sun:

“Although they’ve broken up, Katy knows how important this milestone is for Russell. She wanted to let him know that she was thinking of him and that she was still proud of what he has achieved. She also wanted to drop him the email to wish him a happy 2013 and to let him know that her heart was finally healing.”

That was nice of Katy! Ten years of sobriety is a HUGH accomplishment for anyone in recovery.

Five years after writer/director Judd Apatow introduced us to Pete and Debbie in Knocked Up, Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann reprise their roles as a husband and wife both approaching a milestone meltdown in This Is 40, an unfiltered, comedic look inside the life of an American family.

After years of marriage, Pete lives in a house of all females: wife Debbie and their two daughters, eight-year-old Charlotte (Iris Apatow) and 13-year-old Sadie (Maude Apatow). As he struggles to keep his record label afloat, he and Debbie must figure out how to forgive, forget and enjoy the rest of their lives…before they kill each other.

In his fourth directorial outing, Apatow’s new comedy captures what it takes for one family to flourish in the middle of a lifetime together.

What emerges is a deeply honest portrait of the challenges and rewards of marriage and parenthood in the modern age. Through the filmmaker’s unblinking lens, we follow one couple’s three-week navigation of sex and romance, career triumphs and financial hardships, aging parents and maturing children.

The all-star cast portraying the family and friends, colleagues and neighbors represents an ensemble of actors from many of Apatow’s previous projects, as well as new comedy players who have been welcomed into the fold. They include John Lithgow, Megan Fox, Chris O’Dowd, Jason Segel, Melissa McCarthy, Graham Parker, Lena Dunham, Annie Mumolo, Robert Smigel, Charlyne Yi, Lisa Darr and Albert Brooks. www.thisis40movie.com

‘Playing For Keeps‘ really made an impact on Gerard Butler! In the movie his character is a man who tries to rebuild a relationship with his son after not being very involved in his life. Gerard admitted playing the role, and having a girlfriend, have inspired him to settle down and start a family.

“I have a girlfriend and she’s very nice, and I would love to settle down at some point for sure. Especially doing a movie like this, you play a father and you hang out with these kids and they’re awesome.

“I mean genuinely awesome! To the point where you go, I want a kid, I want a kid just like you.”

Gerard even joked he was desperate to adopt his on-screen son, Noah Lomax, the 10-year-old actor who co-starred with him.

“It was a crazy bunch of kids, but to be honest that’s what made the movie so much fun, playing with them every day. Even my kid, he was just a dream. He became my best buddy at the end of the movie. I wanted to adopt him! I tried to buy Noah I thought maybe I could take him with me but his mom said he’s not for sale. He’s just a diamond little kid.”

Hmmm… could we be hearing wedding bells for Gerard in 2013? Tomorrow is the last day on the Mayan calendar: it’s supposed to herald in a major transition… LOL.

This is actually a sad situation. One celebrity’s illness with an eating disorder is threatening her marriage. Here it is:

Remember that scene in Legally Blonde where Reese Witherspoon goes to get the alibi of Ali Larter’s character? It turns out that the aerobics queen would rather have people think she offed her husband than know that she got liposuction.

With that in mind, let’s talk about this celebrity’s troubled marriage. The public fights will be about egos and money and infidelity. The private fight is the real one. It’s all about the wife’s rampant eating disorder. The wife is purging multiple times every day, and the husband can’t take it anymore. It’s making her ill and it’s completely stressing him out. Most importantly, he doesn’t want that kind of sick behavior around their impressionable child/ren. However, if they talk about the real problem, will the brand be destroyed, and does the fortune go with it? Quite the conundrum.

Take a guess. Then go see the answer at Blind Gossip: this one has been solved! The answer isn’t all that surprising.
