Brooke Shields: Ready for more kids!

Feb 26, 2010 by BabySwags

For someone who scored her first modeling gig at 11 months old, Brooke Shields sounded stunningly normal when she opened up to Life & Style about her life during New York Fashion Week. Whether she’s bumming around in sweats with her hubby, Chris Henchy, and daughters Rowan, 6, and Grier, 3, or filming Furry Vengeance with Brendan Fraser, the 44-year-old actress and model seems to have found the perfect balance.

On having more kids:
Brooke: I’d love more kids. I don’t know how much longer my clock is going to tick, so it’s going to depend on my egg age.

On balancing career and family:
Brooke: I don’t think you ever feel you’re balancing anything. My kids are great, and I have a good husband. You’ve just got to keep everything in the air.

On Valentine’s Day with the family:
Brooke: I had a Donna Karan dress all laid out because I was going to go on a date with my husband, and I looked at him and said, “I just can’t do it. Let’s just hang around with the kids.” We were all in sweat pants and made cookies all day!

KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN’S DEAL WITH THE DEVIL

Feb 26, 2010 by BabySwags

“Kourtney has never been more rich and famous in her life, but unfortunately, she’s never been more miserable,” her friend tells In Touch.

Appearing together recently, Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick seemed more like co-stars than a couple. “Kourtney was sitting with her girlfriends, but Scott barely paid any attention to her,” says a witness from the February 19 event. “He partied with his guy friends and let the hot cocktail waitress light his cigarette.” Until a group of photographers arrived — and the stage show began. “Suddenly, Scott and Kourtney were all lovey-dovey,” the witness marvels. After the photographers were through, though, Scott walked away, paying little attention to her. As deep as Kourtney’s problems run with Scott, he’s proven to be Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ breakout star — and so she’s forced to stay with him and continue the act, no matter how unhappy she is. “Kourtney has never been more rich and famous in her life, but unfortunately, she’s never been more miserable,” says her friend. “Staying with Scott is good for her bank account, but he treats her like dirt, and she’s growing unhappier by the day.”

Jolie-Pitt twins are out of hiding!

Feb 24, 2010 by BabySwags

Tourists out for a stroll in Venice, Italy, on Feb. 22 were in for a surprise: The biggest movie stars in the world, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, were also walking around town. But the bigger shock was who was with them. The couple, who have kept twins Vivienne and Knox almost completely hidden since their July 2008 birth, proudly carried the 19-month-olds in their arms. “It was such a surprise to see the twins,” one eyewitness tells Life & Style. “They’ve gotten so much bigger since the last time the world saw them — they’re like little kids and not babies anymore. And I couldn’t believe how much they look like big sister Shiloh, especially with those lips!”

Despite the raft of recent reports that Brad, 46, and Angie, 34, had met with a lawyer to arrange their split (which the lawyer denied), Brad, Angelina and their brood spent about a week out and about in the Italian city. On Feb. 16, they stopped for ice cream — lemon for Angie, black cherry, vanilla, caramel and strawberry for the kids, nothing for Brad — at La Gelateria Lo Squero. “They seemed very peaceful, happy,” co-owner Beatrice Zennaro tells Life & Style. “I read in the newspapers that they were having problems, but it didn’t seem the case.”

So why have the twins been hidden for so long? Brad and Angie haven’t felt the need to show them off. “Friends and family see the twins all the time,” notes a family insider. “Brad and Angelina have large homes that allow for playing and running and exploring. If you had a château in France or a mansion in LA, you wouldn’t need to take the kids out much either.”
