Following the Aug. 8 birth of his son Parker, singer Clay Aiken is following through on a promise he made to himself as a new dad: to publicly acknowledge that he’s gay.
“It was the first decision I made as a father,” Aiken, 29, tells the upcoming issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands Friday. “I cannot raise a child to lie or to hide things. I wasn’t raised that way, and I’m not going to raise a child to do that.”
Aiken says he expects the news may overwhelm some of his fans. “Whether it be having a child out of wedlock, or whether it be simply being a homosexual, it’s going to be a lot,” said Aiken, who returned to Broadway last week as Sir Robin in Monty Python’s Spamalot. continue reading "People’s Exclusive with Clay Aiken: I’m a Gay Dad"
Jennifer Aniston reportedly met ex-husband Brad Pitt for dinner.
The former couple - who finalised their divorce in 2005 after three years of marriage - are said to have had a business dinner in Toronto, Canada, last week, where they are both appearing at the Toronto International Film Festival.
Jennifer, 39, who is promoting her new film Management, reportedly visited the 44-year-old actor’s hotel for the meal - the first time they have seen each other since their divorce.
Prior to the festival, where Brad is promoting Burn After Reading, Jennifer was said to be “terrified” of bumping into her ex-husband.
A source said: “Her people are checking and double checking her schedule to make sure she doesn’t go within a mile of Brad, let alone bump into him.
“She’s already concerned about her break-up with John Mayer overshadowing her movie, so the last thing she wants is another ex in the picture.
“It’s inconvenient having to duck and dive but more than anything she finds it embarrassing.”
As if the cast of The Hills wasn’t annoying enough, now come reports of the idiots’ wages per episode (spoiler alert: they’re overpaid).
In a world where Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox are raking in seven-figure salaries for a single movie, it should come as no surprise that LC makes a cool $75,000 per episode — totaling over $1.4 million for this season alone. Spencer and Heidi are a close second with $65K per episode; Audrina, $35K; Whitney, $20K; Brody and Lo (!!), $10K.
Daniel Radcliffe won the “Newcomer of the Year” prize at the Whatsonstage.com Theatregoers’ Choice Awards at the Lyric Theatre in London on Sunday night. The awards was less of a shock for Radcliffe than what happened when he went to go collect it:
“But no one was more surprised than the actor himself when, as he approached the microphone to give his acceptance speech, Awards co-host James Corden passionately – and to wild applause – locked lips with him. Before he said his thank-yous, Radcliffe confessed to having a ‘Madonna and Britney Spears’ flashback.”
The kiss is around the 3:00 mark.
The “Friends” actress and ex of Brad Pitt has reportedly decided to have some of her eggs chilled, should she decide to have babies at a later date. According to Star magazine, Aniston is so busy working and hasn’t yet found the right guy with whom to build a family, and so she’s bought herself some time by freezing her eggs.
Aniston’s PR peeps have dismissed the rumor, but the tabloid’s source revealed, “She’s giving herself a big break from the intense pressure to find Mr. Right and have kids. She’s in a good place now.” The tipster also said that Jenn had received advice from her friend, Sheryl Crow, that she should consider adoption as a possibility, but Jennifer was hoping to keep open the option of conceiving her own baby. I almost feel like this is a romantic-comedy premise waiting to happen. continue reading "Jennifer Anniston Puts Her Eggs On Ice"
