Jamie Lynn Spears Has a Baby Girl

There is a new baby in the Spears clan! Jamie Lynn Spears and her fiancé Casey Aldridge welcomed a baby girl Thursday morning.

The baby was named Maddie Briann.

“Just the family was there,” says a source about the birth around 9:30 a.m. at a hospital in Mississippi, near her Louisiana hometown. “Everyone is healthy and happy.”

Jamie Lynn’s sister Britney, father Jamie and brother Bryan flew in Wednesday to be with her for the birth; her mother Lynne had been with her helping her get ready for the baby.

Since announcing her pregnancy in December, Britney’s little sister has retreated from the bright lights of Hollywood, opting for the comforts of her hometown of Kentwood, La.

With her Nickelodeon show Zoey 101 already ended, Jamie Lynn went home to prepare for the birth of her baby. The actress, 17, and Aldridge, 19, got engaged in March. Recently, the couple purchased a three-bedroom home in Liberty, Miss., where Aldridge went to high school.

Over the last few months, Spears has kept busy by passing her GED exam, preparing the nursery and attending multiple baby showers.

Jamie Lynn’s Zoey 101 costar, Erin Sanders, said earlier this year that the actress will be a fun mother.

“She is just a very good-hearted and warm person,” he said. “We would always hang out on the set and she is a lot of fun, so I think she’s going to be an easygoing, fun mom.”

Johnny Depp Delivers on Promise to 12-Year-Old

Johnny Depp is a cat in the hat one 12-year-old will never forget.

Playing 1930’s bank robber John Dillinger – American’s Most Wanted at the time – for his upcoming movie Public Enemies, Depp was shooting on location in Wisconsin in April when he was observed on the set by local boy Jack Taylor, who especially admired Depp/Dillinger’s hat.

In fact, the boy wanted the fedora, and asked the actor if he could have it. Depp, 45, said Taylor could, once the movie was finished.

Last week, reports the Oshkosh, Wis., newspaper the Northwestern, Depp made good on his promise. Taylor received the hat.

Angelina Jolie Promotes World Refugee Day

Never one to turn down humanitarian work, Angelina Jolie recorded a public service announcement for World Refugee Day (held on June 20) to help raise awareness about the plight of millions of people at risk.

The 33-year-old “Wanted” actress first became attached to the work of the UN’s refugee agency during a February 2001 visit to war-torn Sierra Leone in West Africa, prior to filming Beyond Borders with Clive Owen.
“They have survived war, they have survived displacement, they have survived rape, they have survived hunger and disease,” says Jolie (who’s expecting twins with Brad Pitt this summer). “For those who have survived and for those who did not, we are thinking of you on this day.”

In the PSA, Jolie, who acts as a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Refugee Agency, explains what life is like for millions around the world while emotive scenes of refugees flash on the screen.

The actress and human rights activist is also planning to write an article for a major U.S. newspaper to coincide with Friday’s day of action. (World Refugee Day will be marked by events worldwide: London’s Trafalgar Square is being converted into a replica Darfur village, Rome’s Colosseum will be lit with the refugee agency’s logo, and, in Washington, D.C., Chicago Bulls basketball player Luol Deng will receive the Humanitarian of the Year award.)

Salma Hayek Honored at Crystal Lucy Awards

When asked if it was hard to be over 40 in youth obsessed Hollywood, new mom Salma Hayek quickly replied “No Way.”

The Bandidas babe was honored on Tuesday night (June 17) during Women in Film’s Crystal Lucy Awards in Hollywood, where she stated: “I’m 41 now and I have to say, it’s the best time in my life.”

What comment prompted Jada Pinkett Smith – who was also being recognized, along with her costars from the upcoming chick flick, The Women – to shout out, “You look good!”

Salma proceeded to give a big hello to fellow Latina, Eva Mendes (another star of The Women)… who responded with a loud, “I love you, Salma!”

Continuing along, Hayek told the crowd: “I have learned to enjoy time to be a woman. I have learned to enjoy how to do the most that I can with what I have. It is a good thing to be a 41-year-old Latina woman in America.”

Hayek gave birth to her daughter Valentina Paloma last September with billionaire fiancé Francois Henri-Pinault and she says she is finally coming into her own.

When it comes to balancing her busy career and motherhood, Hayek has already learned the most important lesson: “I delegate a lot more…and I’m very lucky because I have great people around me.”

Charlize Theron and Will Smith: “Hancock” premiere in Paris

Wearing a sexy cleavage-baring white ensemble with leopard print heels, South African-born American actress Charlize Theron was a red carpet stunner at the Paris premiere of “Hancock” on Monday night (June 16).

Joined by co-star Will Smith, the duo laughed amongst one another as they posed for a lineup of photographers before making their way into the theater for the screening.

The movie, which hits theaters in the States on July 2nd (France on July 9th), tells the story of “a hard-living superhero who has fallen out of favor with the public, then entering into a questionable relationship with the wife of the public relations professional who’s trying to repair his image.”

Speaking about a scene in the movie, Charlize recently told press that Will Smith slapped her for real on-set, although he isn’t quite willing to accept responsibility.

“He tried to fake slap me one time, but the fake one just didn’t happen. We’re still debating this one. I think he just hit me! But Will claims I leaned into his hand and that’s how it happened. I was so shocked! I was like, ‘He just slapped me! But he said, ‘I did not slap you. I had my hand there and you turned into it,’” she tells.

Not letting a little contact ruin their growing friendship, Charlize adds: “We’re just like kids, it’s so much fun. He’s not a woman beater!”

Amy Winehouse Hospitalized

Amy Winehouse was hospitalized on Monday afternoon (June 16) after she fainted at her London home due to unknown causes. At press time, the singer was still undergoing tests.

"Amy was at home this afternoon when she briefly fainted," read a statement from her U.S. publicist, Tracey Miller. "Fortunately, her manager's assistant was there to stop her falling. She quickly recovered, and her father, Mitch, took her to hospital as a precaution. Doctors are unsure of the cause of the incident, and Amy is currently undergoing tests. She may be kept overnight for observation."

Miller said no other information was available on Winehouse's condition or the cause of her fainting spell.

Before the incident, Winehouse, 24, had been signing autographs for Canadian fans who had been camped outsider her house all day, according to BBC News.

It is not the first health scare for the troubled singer, whose gaunt appearance, scratched-up arms and alleged drug abuse issues have caused concern for her well-being in the past. She was admitted to a London hospital last year suffering from what was called "severe exhaustion" amid reports that she was enrolled in a rehabilitation clinic to deal with drug abuse. She also checked into rehab in January.

The latest scare comes just a few days after Winehouse flew to Moscow for a reported $2 million to give a private concert at the opening of an art gallery run by the girlfriend of Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich. Winehouse arrived in the Russian capital "in no condition to appear," according to the New York Daily News. When she did step in front of the microphone two hours after her appointed time, she did it "wobbling onto the stage down a red carpet lined with red lights, which guided her like a damaged aircraft down a runway," the paper reported. Eyewitnesses called her performance "sloppy."

Angelina Jolie Is ‘A Cool Mommy’

There’s no doubt that meeting Angelina Jolie can be nerve-wracking – but her Wanted costars say the superstar mom is incredibly down-to-earth.

“It’s a little intimidating, someone like her who is presented as a goddess. [But] it takes, like, 30 seconds and you figure out she’s just a cool woman,” Wanted actor Thomas Kretschmann said at the film’s press day Monday.

The German actor, who plays an assassin in the action flick out June 27, also described Jolie as “a cool mommy.”

Kretschmann’s kids and the Jolie-Pitt youngsters “played together from time to time” on set, he said. “She knows exactly what she wants and she’s extremely smart.”

But Jolie isn’t the only “cool” person in her household. Costar Common calls Brad Pitt “a good dude.”

“We hung out and he was a cool cat,” said the rapper-turned-actor.

And Jolie? “She’s an incredible mother, a beautiful mother,” Common said. “She has so much realness to her.”
