Tim Mcgraw And Faith Hill

Tim Mcgraw And Faith Hill, Faith Hill and country singer husband Tim McGraw have once again brushed off divorce rumors which surfaced in the tabloid press recently. It was alleged that the couple’s 17-year marriage is on the rocks.

The couple told reporters, before they performed a double header of shows on Friday in Las Vegas, that they had outlasted divorce rumors which started in their first week of marriage:

“I wish people would stop buying that stuff, and I wish they’d just stop printing that stuff. Happy is good. I don’t know why happy can’t be a story.” Faith Hill said cynically referring to the tabloid press.

Hill spoke about the effect her husband has on her as well as her love and respect for him: “He has this charisma and this unexplainable presence. It’s magnetic, and it’s incredible. I just feel like an amateur every single night.”

For his part Tim McGraw also extolled the virtues of his loving wife, saying about her: “She walks out and just opens her mouth and it comes out so beautifully and soulfully. That’s what keeps me on my toes.”

The couple’s amazing chemistry was abundantly clear as they sat opposite each other performing the hit I Need You with hands on opposite sides of the same microphone and their other hands on each other’s knees.

Faith Hill spoke about the fact their latest string of shows will be ending shortly: “I think this will probably be it. It’s increasingly more difficult with the high school thing. You’ve just got to be there.”

Khloe Kardashian Blonde

Khloe Kardashian Blonde, It’s about time Khloe Kardashian made a fierce change! The 29-year-old beauty was in the Netherlands on Nov. 16 launching the Kardashian Kollection for Lipsy, but all anyone was talking about was her brand new blonde locks! Is this Khloe’s sexiest look ever?

Khloe Kardashian Debuts Blonde Hair

Khloe shed her trademark dark brown hair and showed off a newly dyed mane instead. With her hair styled in flowing waves, the new blonde locks beamed in the Amsterdam sun as Khloe posed for pictures.

Closer to her roots, Khloe maintained a shade of light brown to complete the ombre hairdo.

Suspect Blames Twin

Suspect Blames Twin, A judge says an Army officer linked by DNA to several sexual assaults on young girls will be allowed to blame his twin brother at trial for attacks in two states.

The Gazette reports (http://bit.ly/1agdX2C) that District Judge David Shakes ruled Friday it would be "inappropriate" to bar 1st Lt. Aaron Lucas' attorneys from presenting his identical twin as an alternate suspect, given their shared DNA.

Attorneys for the Colorado officer say investigators picked the wrong Lucas after discovering a DNA link to an unsolved attack on a young girl in Madison, Ala., in 2007, and another in Texarkana, Texas, in 2009. They assert those cases involve Lucas' twin brother, who hasn't been charged.

Shakes will allow the out-of-state evidence at trial.

Brian Lucas could not be reached for comment Saturday but investigators have said he has denied involvement.

Aaron Lucas also has denied luring or trying to lure 11 girls into his vehicle in Colorado between 2009 and 2012. His attorneys did not return a message left by The Associated Press on Saturday.

Nicki Minaj Satan

Nicki Minaj Satan, Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj notoriously didn't get along throughout their one-season stint on American Idol, and earlier this week she told an interviewer that her time on Idol "was like going to work every day in hell with Satan". Now, Carey's husband, Nick Cannon, is coming to her defense.

 "I told you guys she hated it," Cannon tells Billy Bush and Kit Hoover on Access Hollywood Live. Cannon isn't surprised that his wife is speaking out against her short-lived reality TV home, but he does clarify that he doesn't think Carey was talking about anyone in particular in her comments.

 "That's not a forum for the biggest superstar in the world, in my opinion," he says. "I don't even think it's about the people on the panel. If you pay attention to what she was saying, she said it's about when someone tells you something and paints a picture one way, and that's not the case."

Jessica Hart Taylor Swift

Jessica Hart Taylor Swift, Setting the record straight! Though supermodel Jessica Hart reportedly said that performer Taylor Swift "just didn't fit" at the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, the brand's chief marketing officer, Edward Razek, was thrilled with the pop singer's performance. What's more, he tells Us Weekly exclusively that Hart's comments were misinterpreted.

On Nov. 13, Hart was asked by WWD at the fashion show's after-party whether Swift could pull off being a Victoria's Secret model. "God bless her heart. I think she's great," said Hart. "But I don't know, to me, she didn't fit."

Today, Razek has come forward to clarify Hart's comments. "I have personally been in contact with Jessica Hart and she said she was 'wildly misinterpreted' and that she thought Taylor was 'amazing,'" Razek tells Us. "She is stunned that anyone would think differently. And that's something we can all agree on."

Razek continues, "I can tell you that everyone at Victoria's Secret was blown away by Taylor's performance. She could not be more beautiful or talented, that we felt extremely lucky to have her, and that she is welcome back to do the show anytime she wants."

Indeed, the Angels themselves had a wonderful time with the young songstress, 23, he says: "I know that for fact. I talked to them. If you don't believe me, look at the Angels Instagram posts. Wherever possible they posted shots of themselves with Taylor. In fact, they insisted she be in the 2013 Angels class picture that was taken at the end of the show, and nearly all asked to have a picture taken with her backstage. She is as good and strong and powerful and beautiful an artist as I've ever come across."

"Taylor's not ready to be an Angel? She's more than ready to be anything she wants to be," he says. "I could not have more respect for this woman, or be more appreciative of her participation, and I can speak for the entire VS brand, the crew, and most certainly the Angels."

He adds: "We honestly could not have been happier with Taylor. She rocked the house. Sounded great. Looked stunning. And had the best time with the Angels. Some things I let slide. But not this. It couldn't be more wrong."

Debbie Gibson Nba

Debbie Gibson Nba, Still got it! Former teen idol Debbie Gibson looked sexier than ever as she rocked the New York Knicks game on Thursday, Nov. 14 in NYC.

The singer, 42, flaunted her fierce physique in a sparkly, revealing leotard with a plunging neckline and T-strap shoes during her Madison Square Garden performance. The singer confidently held the microphone as her lean, long legs walked across the court. Gibson, who paired her sequined look with an elaborate pair of earrings, captivated the basketball crowd as her trademark, blonde locks flowed from her pretty face.

The former Celebrity Apprentice star, who suffered from acid reflux and relied on anti-anxiety meds in the past, shared in 2012 how her diet choices and lack of sleep were affecting her overall well-being. "I was constantly going to the doctor," she confessed. "I finally realized my food choices were affecting my health."

It seems that the "Foolish Beat" crooner's new lifestyle adjustment is working in her favor! Tell Us: What do you think of Debbie Gibson's sparkly leotard look?

Wes Welker Concussion

Wes Welker Concussion, The Denver Broncos’ 27-17 win victory over the Kansas City Chiefs could be costly as wide receiver Wes Welker sustained a concussion in the fourth quarter Sunday.

Welker suffered the injury during a 20-yard catch-and-run play in the fourth quarter. He started to leave and then took a knee.

Despite the hit, Welker returned on the drive and had a nine-yard catch, but did not return to the game following that play.

According to league’s concussion protocol, Welker will be limited in practice this week , meaning he could have a first full practice Friday at best even if he passes a baseline test Monday.

The Broncos play Welker’s former team, the New England Patriots, next Sunday night.

Welker was targeted 10 times in the win over the Broncos’ division rivals, finishing with eight catches for 74 yards. He has nine touchdown catches this season.

Osu Cheerleader

Osu Cheerleader, Two assistant cheerleader coaches at Ohio State University were kicked off the team in May during a sex scandal that included charges of harassment.

Eddie Hollins and Dana Bumbrey were fired on Nov. 7, according to the school's student newspaper The Lantern.

Kim Heaton, the athletic department's director of human resources, stated in a letter dated June 20 that Ohio State's head cheerleading coach Lenee Buchman did not properly report a complaint and the coaching staff was required to attend sexual harassment education session in July.

According to records The Lantern obtained, Bumbrey and Hollins were fired "for cause" on May 23.

The Columbus Dispatch reported that cheerleaders accused Hollins of making sexual jokes and at times slapping male students on the butts and tapping their testicles. They accused Bumbrey of making inappropriate remarks to the female cheerleaders, including nicknaming one "Fornicate."

The cheerleaders said Bumbrey routinely talked about the size of the female cheerleaders' butts and made remarks such as "she always has her legs spread" when one cheerleader was in a compromising position during routines.

According to records, investigators said Hollins had been investigated for similar charges in 2006 and should have known better.

"Ohio State University has no tolerance for this type of behavior," Ohio State spokesman Gary Lewis Jr. told the Dispatch. "The university conducted a complete and thorough investigation and found that the behaviors of Hollins and Bumbrey were inconsistent with university values and violated university policies."

The fired coach said that sexual joking among the coaches and team members was common, and comments they made to cheerleaders were never taken seriously.

The Lantern noted that Bumbrey was a 1995 graduate of Ohio State and had been a member of the coaching staff since August 2009 and was an OSU cheerleader from 1992-95. Hollins was in his third stint as a university cheerleading coach and was a 1994 OSU graduate.

Annette Bening Son Transgender

Annette Bening Son Transgender, Stephen Ira, the transgender son of Hollywood power couple Warren Beatty and Annette Bening, has filmed a public service announcement opposing a New York Medicaid regulation excluding transgender people from accessing healthcare.

"I grew up outside of New York, but I've always known I've wanted to move here for the city's vibrant artistic community," Ira says in the spot. "As a trans person, I would hope that I'd be welcomed but many trans people aren't because we don't have the basic healthcare coverage we need to survive."

The ad was produced by GLAAD and the Sylvia Rivera Law Project.

In 2011, state Health Commissioner Dr. Nirav Shah said that "no consideration is being given to any change in current state policy and any proposal to have gender reassignment surgery funded by Medicaid would be rejected."

California and Minnesota already use Medicaid funds for the surgery.

Kim Kanye Date Night

Kim Kanye Date Night, After a few weeks of getting his tour equipment back in order, Kanye West finally started back the Yeezus tour last night in Philly.

Accompanied by his lovely fiance Kim Kardashian, the two enjoyed a great date night before the concert…but not where you might think!

We’ve seen them hit up McDonald’s for a special fast food treat, and now KimYe have made their way to Wendy’s.

It looks like the second kick-off to the Yeezus tour was a success, since Kim posted a photo of his stage set on Instagram.

Anna Davis Arrested

Anna Davis Arrested, Former Buckwild Star Arrested for DUI, MTV‘s hopeful replacement for The Jersey Shore, Buckwild caused massive controversy with its alcoholic cast, crazy antics and more.

The show was taken off the air over a year ago, after MTV decided to cancel the show in the wake of Shain Gandee’s death. The cast were in the middle of filming season two, Salwa Amin and “Bluefoot” were both in jail and Shain had recently passed, and so producers decided to stop filming rather than continue without its most popular stars.

However, the remaining stars of Buckwild are still in the headlines. Salwa has been doing really well in her rehabilitation, and she is recovering from her opiate addiction. Although, other cast members still seem to have issues controlling their substance intake.

This time, it’s cast member Anna Davis who has been arrested for DUI (something nearly the entire cast has been arrested for previously).

Stop us if this one sounds familiar — one of the people from the ex-MTV show “Buckwild” was arrested this morning in West Virginia … this time for a DUI. Anna Davis — who the show described as a “true wild child” — was busted early Saturday morning for aggravated DUI.

It’s unclear at this point why the DUI charges were elevated since a whole slew of things could have caused it … but the same thing happened to her co-star Bluefoot earlier this year when he had a BAC higher than .15. Anna was released hours later on a $1k pr bond — meaning she didn’t have to pay … just promise to show up in court. – via TMZ.

Previously, Salwa Amin was arrested for disorderly conduct and drug offenses. Tyler Boulet was arrested for underage drinking. Michael “Bluefoot” Douglas was arrested for DUI. Joey Mulcahy was arrested for DUI. And the late Shain Gandee had also been arrested for DUI.

Mike Mccormack Dies

Mike Mccormack Dies, Hall of Fame offensive lineman Mike McCormack died Friday in Palm Desert, Calif. He was 83. During his nearly 50 years in professional football, McCormack played, coached and held several executive positions, including president of the Carolina Panthers.

Panthers spokesman Charlie Dayton said he spoke with McCormack’s wife, Ann, and was informed of McCormack’s death from natural causes.

McCormack spent 12 seasons with the Cleveland Browns, helping the franchise win NFL championships in 1954 and 1955. He played with Otto Graham and blocked for running back Jim Brown.

“The Cleveland Browns were saddened to learn of the passing of Mike McCormack,” the Browns said in a statement. “His contributions to our history are profound, not only on an individual level, but also with regard to the tremendous success we enjoyed as a team during his career. Both the Browns and the NFL are most fortunate to have shared part of his amazing life. Our deepest condolences go out to his wife, Ann, and his family.”

McCormack later coached the Philadelphia Eagles (1973-75), Baltimore Colts (1980-81) and Seattle Seahawks (1982). He served as president and general manager of the Seahawks.

McCormack was instrumental in helping the Panthers land an NFL franchise in 1993 and is the first person selected into the team’s Hall of Honor.

“It is safe to say that we would probably not have a team in the Carolinas if it were not for Mike McCormack,” Panthers owner Jerry Richardson said in a release. “He had the contacts in the National Football League and was universally respected by everyone associated with professional football.”

Richardson and McCormack have remained close friends.

“He was a wonderful man and our thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Ann, and the entire McCormack family,” Richardson said.

A native of Chicago, McCormack made his mark in the NFL long before joining the Panthers in 1989.

McCormack was a dominant offensive lineman for the Browns. At McCormack’s Hall of Fame induction ceremony, coach Paul Brown called McCormack “the finest offensive lineman I have ever coached.”

USA Today named McCormack to its 75th anniversary all-NFL team, listing him as one of the best three tackles in league history.

McCormack’s coaching career began as an assistant in 1965 with the Washington Redskins, learning under coaching legends Vince Lombardi and George Allen.

But he never experienced the same success he had as a player. McCormack was a combined 29-51-1 during his career as a head coach.

Still, he was respected enough that the Seahawks hired him to work on the personnel side as president and general manager. McCormack left the Seahawks in 1989 and Richardson hired him as an adviser in an effort to help bring professional football to the Carolinas.

He later served as team president, but left the Panthers after two seasons so he could spend more time with his grandchildren.

Richardson named McCormack to Carolina’s Hall of Honor in 1997. He is one of only two people in the Hall of Honor; the other is former linebacker Sam Mills, who is also deceased.

Dayton said the Panthers plan to hold a moment of silence prior to Monday night’s game against the New England Patriots.

Chloe Lattanzi

Chloe Lattanzi, Being the offspring of famed Aussie singer, Olivia Newton-John it seems has been a tad too much for 27 year old Chloe Lattanzi.

In a new account the doomed daughter and only child of Olivia Newton-John and her then husband Matt Latanzi explains in an exclusive with the UK’s dailymail how starting at the age of 15 she spiraled out of control in a web of depression, anorexia, self medication with cocaine, vodka and anti depressants as she struggled to become the perfect thing she thought she had to be.

While Olivia Newton John, now 65 has managed to retain the aura of a wholesome, squeaky clean girl next door, her daughter, Chloe has had to spend an eternity struggling with her mother’s legacy as she attempted to replicate her mother’s ascent.

Fresh out of rehab, Chloe Latanzi goes on to explain the resentment of being born into money, fame, privilege and how that shit messed with her head.

Tells Latanzi: ‘Fame totally messes you up. I don’t blame my mother for my problems, but I would never want to be famous or raise a child of my own around the cult of celebrity. It ruins lives.

‘If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it is that you can’t be fragile in this business, or else you end up like Lindsay Lohan.

‘That’s not meant as an insult: I know she – and a lot of celebrities and celebrities’ kids – are struggling with  demons and addictions, just like me, and not all of them are brave enough to address them. It’s disturbing that everyone wants to be famous these days. Our culture is sick.’

Lesean Mccoy Flag

Lesean Mccoy Flag, LeSean McCoy showed up at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday wearing a Raiders vest, so it only stood to reason that the Philadelphia Eagles running back would be imbued with that old school Raiders sense of disrepute.

Prior to the big divisional game against the Washington Redskins, McCoy ripped a Redskins flag away from a fan near the tunnel to the locker room.

That’s pretty shady, Shady. It’s the Eagles fans, not the players, who are stereotypically supposed to act like boors.

The Eagles came out with the same tenacious attitude on the field, to less-than-stellar results. On the first play from scrimmage, defensive end Fletcher Cox made an unnecessary shove on Robert Griffin III after the quarterback stepped out of bounds, earning a 15-yard personal foul.

Tony Picard Football

Tony Picard Football, A 400-pound running back named Tony "Big Tone" Picard, who makes his high school competitors and teammates look like little-league football players, has become a sensation as clips of him smashing through defensive lines and barreling down the field have gone viral.

According to the North West Prep Report, the 400-pound, six-foot-four Picard plays running back and nose guard for White Swan High School in Yakima, Wash., where this season he has rushed for more than 570 yards and scored eight touchdowns.

"It’s so much fun to have him go out [on the field] as a captain and see him shaking hands before the game," White Swan coach Andrew Bush told Indian Country Today Media Network. "They’re just kind of staring, like ‘Oh my gosh, you’ve got to be kidding me!'"

Picard, who is part Umatilla-Nez Perce Indian and part Sioux Indian, is currently a senior and says he hopes to be able to play college football after he graduates this year.

"Yeah I want to play college football it is my dream. I hope I can go the next level," Picard told the North West Prep Report. "People say that (I'm too big) but I try not to let it get to me."

While his size is an asset when playing high school football, it can be a disadvantage as a running back when faced with considerably larger opponents in college football where it will make him more of a target if he is not athletic enough to overpower them and gain yardage.

According to Picard's coach however, Picard is faster than you would expect and "so agile."

And when he is not rushing the ball himself, the massive running back will often serve as a decoy, distracting the other team's defense to "make a path for the smaller guys to score," Picard said

"Most teams will sacrifice five guys to stop him: four linemen and a middle linebacker. That leaves three guys on each side to stop the rest of our team," Bush told Indian Country Today Media Network. "Everything else opens up: our outside running, our play action, and our entire passing game. We average about 450 yards as a team offensively."

Mcstay Family Mystery

Mcstay Family Mystery, Four skeletons found in shallow graves in the Southern California desert are believed to be those of a San Diego County family that vanished three years ago, police said Friday, resolving one mystery and raising a host of new questions about what happened to the seemingly happy couple and their two young sons.

40-year-old Joseph, his 43-year-old wife, Summer, and their sons Gianni, 4, and Joseph Jr., 3 — were apparent homicide victims, San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon said. csmonitor

Police now will try to piece together what led the McStays to disappear and end up 100 miles from their home, not far off heavily traveled Interstate 15 connecting San Diego and Las Vegas. The family's skeletal remains were found Monday by an off-road motorcyclist.

"It's not really the outcome we were looking for, but it gives us courage to know that they're together and they're in a better place," said Joseph McStay's brother, Michael, struggling to speak through tears as other family members sobbed at a news conference.

"I know the sheriff's and the FBI and everybody wants to bring this to justice," he said. "I just want to know when it's over. That's all."

McMahon said investigators don't know many details, including when the McStays were killed, how long the bodies had been in the desert and if they were killed there or elsewhere. Evidence at the scene included some clothing, but McMahon wouldn't say if authorities found a weapon or whether a cause of death was determined.

However, he said: "There is investigative evidence that is at the scene that will help complete the investigation."

The two graves, located about 50 yards off a dirt road, were 1- to 2-feet deep, and there were two bodies in each, McMahon said. Some of the bones had been dragged to the surface by animals, he added. He declined to say how the bodies were arranged in the graves.

The parents' identities were determined through dental records. Police are awaiting DNA testing on the other remains but believe the skeletons are those of the couple's boys.

The McStays disappeared without a trace from their home in Fallbroook, about 55 miles north of San Diego, in February 2010. There were no signs of forced entry at the residence or in their SUV, which was found parked near the U.S.-Mexico border.

Neither Joseph nor Summer had told family or friends they were leaving. When they were reported missing, authorities went to the house and found eggs that had rotted on the kitchen counter and two pet dogs in the backyard, indicating the family hadn't prepared for an extended leave.

Nothing was missing from the home, and the couple's credit cards and tens of thousands of dollars in bank accounts never were touched.

Their McStays' disappearance launched what San Diego County sheriff's investigators called their most extensive missing-persons search ever.

Authorities pursued hundreds of tips and eventually came to believe the family left voluntarily for Mexico. One of the pieces of evidence supporting that theory was a poor-quality video that appeared to show four people matching the McStays' descriptions walking into Tijuana, Mexico.

Some family members doubted the video showed the couple and their children. The case was later turned over to the FBI.

McMahon said Friday there's no indication — at this point — the family ever went to Mexico.

"We're looking at all options and investigating this crime from the beginning," he said, adding that Mexican authorities were not assisting in the investigation.

The investigation, which had faded from the news, cracked open Monday when an off-road motorcyclist called police to say there were some bones in a semi-rural desert area near Victorville. The remains were identified as the McStays after local authorities contacted the Department of Justice and asked if there were any missing-person cases involving a family of four.

Russell brand helen mirren

Russell brand helen mirren, Russell Brand may have a bit of explaining to do today after photographers caught him in a steamy clinch with an older woman who wasn’t his wife – although he may just get away with it as it was national treasure

Katy Perry had arrived at the Arthur premiere with her playful husband but the minute she left the red carpet at London’s O2 arena leaving Brand to continue the media rounds, he grabbed the glamorous The Queen actress and moved in for the kill.Looking dapper in a swish Dolce and Gabbana suit, the British comedian took Mirren by her waist – who instantly obliged, wrapping her arms around his neck – and puckered up to engage In a lingering snog. The pair even shut their eyes for the moment – surely a sign they had both surrendered to the kiss.

The 35-year-old funnyman – who has recently been slammed for losing his comic edge – proved he was back on form as, according to the Daily Mirror, he later joked: ‘I’m sure Katy Perry will be irritated by that snog.’

Brand and Mirren have developed quite a relationship since working together on comedy Arthur, with him previously describing her as ‘sexy and enchanting.’And it’s evident the 65-old vixen has left quite an impact on the childlike man as he added: ‘I want Helen Mirren to bathe me like a nurse in a nursing home and then she drops the soap and something naughty happens.

‘I love my kisses with Helen. They are so erotic. Right on the Queen’s lips.’The pair kept up their playful charade all night as they posed for photos and Russell even referred to her as a ‘tiger’ in the strapless gown she had on.Mirren did manage to spare some time for her 66-year-old husband Taylor Hackford, with whom she had arrived at the event  – though she reverted back to her usual sophisticated image with him by her side.

But Katy doesn’t need to worry too much as she got her fair share of Russellisms on the red carpet before he turned his attentions to the other leading lady in his life.The Brands arrived hand-in-hand still looking like the picture-perfect Hollywood married couple, Katy laughing at his jokes and tightly hugging him while Russell stared lovingly down at her.

They showed the world another very public kiss – which is turning into a favourite hobby of the pair at red carpet events – as Russell further tried to show he still has his cheeky side by giving his wife’s behind a big squeeze.

Russell’s latest film Arthur is a remake of the 1981 classic starring Dudley Moore and Liza Minnelli. The film has been panned in the US, with one reviewer saying it should ‘put a nail in the coffin of Brand’s career as a movie comic’. But Dame Helen defended him as ‘a tornado of energy who’s also very disciplined’.

Gwyneth paltrow mario batali

Gwyneth paltrow mario batali, Gwyneth Paltrow is in the best shape of her life at 41, thanks to a healthy diet and grueling daily workouts. Paltrow, who was recently named the Most Beautiful Woman in the world by People magazine, even amazes her celebrity friends with her dedication.

"She's relentless," celebrity chef Mario Batali told Life & Style Sept. 26. "It's two hours a day of exercise."

Batali, 53, has been friends with Paltrow since the 1990s, and the two share a love of good food and cooking. Batali says Gwyneth and her husband, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, are both health and exercise fanatics, which he says is necessary in their line of work.

"They're serious exercise addicts," observed Batali. "They both know what they need to eat, and not to just go by some fad diet. They need to eat because the machinery needs it. They're both performers.”

Paltrow has made no secret of her dedication to intense workouts, admitting her rigorous exercise regimen has reduced her to tears. Like most people, the mom of two sometimes does not feel like hitting the gym, but has made exercise a part of her daily routine, just like brushing her teeth.

Gwyneth's longtime trainer is fitness guru Tracy Anderson, who also works with Kim Kardashian, Nicole Richie and Ashley Greene.

The willowy 5-foot-9 blonde beauty is an accomplished cook who enjoys preparing low-carb, gluten-free meals for her husband and two children. Earlier this year, Paltrow was slammed after revealing she won't feed her family gluten, pasta, bread, rice, dairy or chicken eggs.

She later backpedaled following accusations that she was depriving her children, but noted that every nutritionist, doctor and health-conscious person she knew extolled the health benefits of going gluten-free.

Meanwhile, Batali says Gwyneth is so skilled in the kitchen that she once cooked paella for him in a bikini without getting a single food stain on her.

"Last summer we were at her house in East Hampton, and she made paella in a bikini and didn't get one speck of oil [on her] or get any little burns because she's a patient chef," he said.

Tyra banks clay aiken

Tyra banks clay aiken, Clay Aiken is stepping back into the limelight, revealing more personality than ever.The 33-year-old singer will always be part of the permanent pop-culture lexicon after gaining fame as one of the most successful runners-up in American Idol history, dating back nine years to season two.

But he has also been fiercely private, despite flashes of outspokenness. (See: Aiken's bitter 2009 tirade against fellow Idol also-ran Adam Lambert, one of whose TV performances he slammed as "awful," "contrived" and "slightly frightening.")

For years, Aiken -- whose fans are dubbed "Claymates" -- appeared to be in hiding from his true self, dodging persistent questions about his sexuality. In September 2008, he publicly confirmed he's gay, months after welcoming a son, Parker Foster Aiken, with friend Jaymes Foster, the sister of music producer David Foster. She produced his fourth studio album, On My Way Here, released that same year.

In July 2010, Aiken dropped a disc of standards called Tried and True, and this week, he returns from a two-year album hiatus with the follow-up Steadfast, a tribute to '50s and '60s songs. It contains seven tracks from Tried and True, plus a pair of covers and one original song in a repackaging of his previous effort.

In that sense, he appears to be capitalizing on his current stint as a contestant on NBC's Celebrity Apprentice, the Donald Trump-created ego franchise from which Aiken most certainly would have shied away several years ago. He can be seen Sunday nights competing for cash (all proceeds go to charity) alongside Arsenio Hall, Debbie Gibson and Real Housewife Teresa Giudice.

Aiken marked a media appearance to promote his projects on Tuesday's edition of the Bravo chatfest Watch What Happens, hosted by Andy Cohen. The no-holds-barred tone of the show seemed to rub off on Aiken, who confessed to having plastic surgery.

"I had operative surgery on my jaw for a TMJ thing and I had them suck the fat out of my chin while they were in there," he said, not mentioning the date on which he went under the knife. "I was like, 'You know what, while I'm already down, go ahead and take the vacuum in there and suck the fat out of my chin.'"

(It's worth noting that Aiken has made a cameo on NBC's 30 Rock as the cousin of the character Kenneth (Jack McBrayer), whose weak chin is a running joke on the series.)

In another candid conversation, the singer and reality star weighed in on the tragic death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, who was shot dead by neighorhood watchman George Zimmerman while unarmed last month.

"The Trayvon Martin story has gotten a lot of coverage already but this is in memory of him," Aiken told the Huffington Post on Wednesday, sporting a hooded sweatshirt in tribute to the Florida teen. "As a father, you think about your own kid and mine is really young but this could be anyone’s child. We need to have something happen here, some sort justice and arrest. I’m not saying a conviction, I'm just saying an arrest and a jury deciding this instead of just some cops."

According to the Huff Post, citing sources, Aiken "does very well" during his Apprentice run.
Nearly 10 years since his overnight Idol fame, the once-shy performer seems to be making a concerted effort to remain in the spotlight, where he seemingly belongs -- and wants to be.
