Jennifer Aniston dons tiny bikini while packing on PDA

Jennifer Aniston recently said it feels like she and fiance Justin Theroux are already married, so this must be the honeymoon.

On Tuesday, photographers snapped photos of the couple as they packed on the PDA in the pool at their resort in Cabo, where they are staying with Aniston's "The Switch" co-star Jason Bateman and his wife, Amanda Anka.

For months there have been rumors that the couple had postponed their wedding after reports that their relationship had fizzled, but these photos seem to suggest otherwise.

As for the 44-year-old actress, she looked fantastic as always in her red bikini, but we couldn't help getting a sense of déjà vu. We're pretty sure it's because she broke out the same tiny two piece the last time the couple hit up Cabo in December 2012. Source - huffingtonpost.com

Beyonce ate $2,200 worth of Nando's Chicken

If there was ever any doubt in your mind, rest assured that Beyonce loves her chicken.

Queen Bey's receipt from Nando's went viral this weekend when she ordered $2,264 worth of chicken after performing at V Festival in the U.K. Granted, the 58 wing platters, 48 whole chickens, 12 veggie burgers and 24 coleslaw orders weren't all for her, but we love how her entourage gave the lady's real name to the hostess (note "Beyonce K" on top).

According to the BBC, the restaurant's manager confirmed a member of Beyonce's posse called in with the order.

According to E!, Beyonce is a big fan of the fast-food chain: She raked up a $1,144 bill at an Ireland Nando's branch last May. Source - huffingtonpost.com

Lindsay Lohan skips pants in New York city

The newly sober starlet was spotted in SoHo Aug. 20, baring her legs in nothing but a white button-down and some gold ankle booties. In some photos, a pair of teeny black briefs can be seen peeking out from under the top.

The 27-year-old was seen walking with a female friend and hotelier Vikram Chatwal, according to the photo agency that obtained the pics. Chatwal was arrested back in April after attempting to board a plane with cocaine, marijuana and prescription pills in Florida. Earlier this month, TMZ reported he was completing a court-ordered rehab stint, just like his "Canyons" star pal.

Lohan left rehab on July 30 after finishing her 90-day treatment. In a recent interview with Oprah Winfrey, the actress said she feels different this time around. She said she is prepared to "work really hard and stay focused and prove myself in the way that I did before in the past and I lost. I have to regain the trust of people in my career that have their doubts and I fully respect that on their behalf." Source - huffingtonpost.com

Kelly Brook is reportedly looking stunning in her new Lynx campaign in which she is seen rubbing ice cubes on her bikini clad body before going topless.

The 33-year old English model is heading up the campaign which is set to send one lucky Lynx space academy lover into space via a global competition, the Daily Express reported.

Lindsay Lohan tells Oprah about her alcohol addiction and cocaine use

Four days after completing her sixth stint in rehab, Lindsay Lohan sat down with Oprah for a highly anticipated interview. During their candid conversation, the actress opened up about her time in rehab as well as her public court battles, family feuds and addictions.

In this clip from the interview on "Oprah's Next Chapter," Oprah focuses on Lohan's addiction, beginning with a direct question for the troubled star. "Are you an addict?" she asks Lohan.

"Yeah," Lohan answers.

"What is your drug of choice?" Oprah asks.

"Alcohol," Lohan says. "That, in the past, was a gateway to other things for me… I tried cocaine with alcohol."

After Lohan's first arrest for possession, she had said that she had only done cocaine three or four times. During her conversation with Oprah, though, Lohan reveals it was more. "I really haven't done it more than 10 to 15 times," Lohan admits. "Of course, I said three or four. I was terrified of being judged… [But] I've done it 10 to 15 times."

Lohan explains that her cocaine use went hand in hand with her drinking. "[Cocaine] allowed me to drink more," she tells Oprah. "I think that's why I did it when I did it. It was a party thing."

"Would you snort it? Inject it? Smoke it?" Oprah asks.

"Oh, my, no. I snorted it," Lohan responds.

Also in the video, Lohan describes her addiction to chaos -- stemming from dysfunction in her childhood -- and discusses her current healing process.

A cause of death for actress Lisa Robin Kelly will not be revealed for another two months, despite the fact that an autopsy has already been performed, CNN reports.

Los Angeles County Coroner Lt. Cheryl MacWillie told the outlet that Kelly's autopsy was completed on Saturday, but toxicology results will not be available for another eight to 10 weeks.

The former "That '70s Show" star died Wednesday, Aug. 14 in her sleep at a rehabilitation facility in California. She was 43 years old.

TMZ previously reported law enforcement called Kelly's cause of death "a mystery." There were allegedly no drugs in her room and no signs of trauma.

Earlier last week, Kelly voluntarily checked herself into rehab to deal with "the addiction problems that have plagued her these past few years," her agent told People magazine.

"I spoke to her on Monday, and she was hopeful and confident, looking forward to putting this part of her life behind her," Craig Wyckoff said.

The actress has had several legal issues in recent years. In June, she was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after her car stalled on a freeway in Burbank, Calif., the Los Angeles Times noted. Source- huffingtonpost.com

Brad Pitt too 'dumb' for museum board?

Hollywood star Brad Pitt has been snubbed by a museum after they reportedly decided he was too stupid for a place on their board.

The 49-year-old actor has been a long-time supporter of the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, but bosses have apparently decided he isn't smart

enough for a place alongside the intellectual elite, reported Daily Star.

"Brad has always supported the museum, so he asked if he could participate on a higher level. But while the committee admires Brad's ambition, the fear is that he might be a little on the dumb side to serve on an art board. He doesn't even have a college degree," a source said.

Taking on a role on the museum's board may have been ambitious for Pitt as it was recently reported he and partner Angelina Jolie could be set for a move to the UK while he shoots a sequel to zombie blockbuster World War Z.

"Brad and Angelina are already planning for next year and have put the feelers out for properties. They would like to stay in Surrey like last time. Their kids are home-schooled so it won't cause much disruption," the source added. Source- Hindustan Times

Will Smith’s unlikely romance

Justin Bieber and Will Smith are so close, they're practically family. On Wednesday, the "Beauty and a Beat" singer shared a pic on Instagram of the unlikely pair captioning it, "Me and uncle Will."
Judging from the photo, Smith is equally as fond of the 19-year-old. The 44-year-old Hollywood vet has his arm around Bieber's shoulder and is flashing a peace sign at the camera.
Back in April, Will defended Justin against critics who scrutinize his every move, telling U.K.'s Capital FM, "There are things that are just simple and normal for a 19-year-old to do. When I was 19 there was no Twitter, the things that I was doing — I was able to have privacy because everybody's phone didn't have a camera on it."
The Biebs was quick to acknowledge Smith coming to his defense, tweeting, "Will Smith is the Man."
But this isn't the first time the young megastar has paid tribute to the "After Earth" star. Source-Yahoo news.

Kourtney Kardashian slams 'ridiculous lies' about Scott Disick paternity suit

Kourtney Kardashian's paternity nightmare is over. The reality star and mom to Mason, 3, and Penelope, 13 months, is once and for all putting an end to speculation about her son's genetic line, telling Us Weekly in a statement she can prove that her boyfriend of seven years, Scott Disick, is definitely Mason's dad.
"After three-and-a-half years of rumors and lies being spread by an individual I met briefly at a photo shoot, I am setting the record straight that Scott is Mason's father," Kourtney said on Thursday. "While it saddens me to have to address these ridiculous lies -- especially when the truth was never in doubt -- this story must be put to rest."
The story, according to TMZ, first came to light when male model Michael Girgenti filed legal documents claiming that he was the biological father of Kourtney's son. Girgenti claimed he had unprotected sex with the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star in 2009, after meeting her at a photo shoot in 2008.
Per TMZ, Girgenti believed that Mason -- born nine months after their alleged encounter -- bore a striking resemblance to him. He reportedly tried to contact his alleged former fling; when that failed, he went to L.A. County Superior Court to request a paternity test and joint custody of the 3-year-old little boy.
"This individual has been selling false and fabricated stories to the tabloids for years about Kourtney Kardashian and her son, Mason. Scott Disick is Mason's father," Kourtney's attorney, Todd Wilson, told TMZ after the allegations surfaced on Aug. 9. "His claims are absurd and this is simply another shameful attempt to gain publicity and profit from fictional stories about my client. Source- Wonderwall.msn.com

Once Upon a Time Spin-Off Tells Different Wonderland Tale

Like its predecessor, Once Upon a Time in Wonderland adds new details to a familiar fairy tale to tell an entirely different story.

To wit: This Alice (Sophie Lowe) has to escape from an insane asylum to make her way back to Wonderland, where she hopes to reunite with the love of her life, a genie named Cyrus (Peter Gadiot).

Once Upon a Time in Wonderland taps Naveen Andrews as Jafar and more scoop from Comic-Con

"It's honoring what came before and leaping off and trying to do our own spin," executive producer Adam Horowitz said at the Television Critics Association fall TV previews on Sunday. The producers note that the 13-episode first season is a contained and complete story that, should it prove successful, could continue with a new tale in a potential second season.

Unlike her literary counterpart, this Alice isn't the weak-willed girl who followed the White Rabbit down his hole. "She's tough, mentally and physically," Lowe said. "She can kick a-- and look after herself." Added executive producer Edward Kitsis: "You'll realize that Alice was an ignored girl growing up, so in a lot of ways, Alice is trying to prove this to her father so she can get his love."

Once Upon a Time heads to Neverland, welcomes Peter Pan, Tinker Bell and Ariel!

But who is this genie? "We love the idea of a genie who thought, 'If only one day I could get free, I could live [my own] life.' Alice had a really tough growing-up process, so they kind of complete each other in a way." Kitsis noted that it seemed very plausible that a girl who could follow a rabbit down a hole would love a genie who can travel to many different lands.

The producers say that Wonderland won't be nearly as dark as Once. "It has its own unique vibe," Kitsis said. "For us, Wonderland is a psychedelic romance. It's trippy and weird and intense, but it also has some real characters and romance." Levity will come in the form of the hookah-smoking Caterpillar (voiced by Roger Daltrey), the White Rabbit (voiced by John Lithgow) and the introduction of the Cheshire Cat. As for the return of the Mad Hatter, the producers noted they're not recasting Sebastian Stan, but they hope he'll have time to return to their world.

Further, fans of the flagship series will get a deeper experience knowing some of the characters who cross over, including the Queen of Hearts (Barbara Hershey), who the producers teased would likely appear in flashbacks. The show's main villains, however, will be the Red Queen (Emma Rigby) and Aladdin's Jafar (Lost's Naveen Andrews), both of whom will have backstories that expand upon their existing personas. "What we want to do is present the audience with something they've never seen before," Andrews said. "There has to be ambiguity."

But you don't have to have watched Once to get it. "This show exists concurrently with Once," Horowitz said. "We hit the ground running in the pilot of this show and hopefully you can come right in."

Once Upon a Time in Wonderland will premiere Thursday, Oct. 10 at 8/7c on ABC. Source- yahoo news
