Ellen DeGeneres has denied claims that she is planning to adopt a child with Portia De Rossi. The talk show host insisted that she has no plans to have children and praised De Rossi for making her life "almost perfect". "We're not adopting and we don't want to have children," she explained. "No babies - neither of us want children. My life with Portia is almost perfect. Portia has a special, unique personality - she makes me laugh." Maybe they don't like to join the bandwagon or it just hinders their current lifestyle. One thing's for sure; Ellen will never be carrying anything for 3/4 of a year.






There will definitely be millions out there brushing up on their Brit accent after hearing this. Scarlett Johansson is getting over her split from Josh Hartnett and is desperate to find new love with a British man. They broke up late last year, and now she has already found a suitable replacement. She explains: "I'd love to go out with a tall, dark, handsome Brit with piercing blue eyes and cut-glass London accent. That's on my to do list." Some peeps out there may just consider a makeover on the UK streets.







This could be interesting. Hugh Grant has earmarked George Michael to play him in a potential biopic of his turbulent life. The actor insists Michael holds a burning ambition to play him. Grant told radio station Heart, "I know that it's something that George has always wanted to do. He sent me a script the other day actually. It's not my whole life - just really the years between 20 and 25 - and it's very flattering." Well.. Hugh does have huge 'faith' on the Wham guy.

Jessica Simpson buying roses for herself? (09/02/2007)




Wolfmother have started writing on a second album! The Aussie rockers are anxious to make the record heavier than their debut. Andrew Stockdale said: "Songs like 'Joker & The Thief' and 'Woman' were just relentless and totally in your face. I feel like there's an element of that in the new songs. A lot of bands that I've heard, after the first record they kind of soften up, but I definitely don't want to get softer on the second record." The band refused to speculate on when recording would take place or when the album would be released. Retro rock is always good.

A spicy tribute coming soon.. Girls Aloud plan to cover some of the Spice Girls' greatest hits when they go on tour later this year. They are currently working on the set list for the tour before rehearsals start in April. A source told the Daily Star: "Girls Aloud will sing several of the Spice Girls' hits when they go on tour in May. They'll do a medley of the Spice's most well-known tunes like Wannabe, Spice Up Your Life, Stop and maybe one of their ballads." Maybe they will also take on the different personas?




LOST Season 3 Ep 7 - "Not In Portland"
What an episode!!! Juliet Burke, the fertility doctor, was not born on the island. She is actually from Miami and has a sister with an unknown medical condition. The intro really fooled everyone with Juliet sitting alone on the beach, then walking past Ethan Rom in a creepy hallway plus that I-Ching clock beside her sister's bed. Only when she opened the curtains did we know it was a flashback scene. Juliet is medical researcher who impregnated her sister with experimental drugs, had some problems with her ex-husband and used to be meek. On the island, Kate and Sawyer escaped from Pickett's gang but found out there wasn't a way out without a boat. But help came through Alex, nicknamed both 'Sheena' and 'Lollipop' from Sawyer, who promised to supply them a boat if they helped save her boyfriend Karl. She brought them to an area with a hatch guarded by some guy reading "A Brief History of Time". After scaring tactics, they went into room 23 where Karl (Cheech) is currently being brainwashed with some weird techno beats and watching creepy film clips containing pics and messages like "Plant a good seed and you will joyfully gather fruit," "Everything changes," "We are the causes of our own suffering," "God loves you as he loved Jacob," and "Think about your life." Jacob's list.. who is this high ranking guy? In the surgery room, Juliet calmly ordered Jack to complete the operation because he will not let Ben die no matter what. Shocking moment came when Ben woke up and requested to speak to Juliet in private. After that chat, Juliet told Jack that she will save his friends and told him to continue the operation. She then went out to find K & S, first going to the brainwashing hatch and then to the seaside where she shot Pickett(woooo!) three times just as he was about to shoot Sawyer. After some emotional moments telling Jack the old story, Kate was released together with Sawyer & Karl on a small boat. Alex didn't join them because Juliet told her that the only reason they will let Karl off is for Alex to stay behind. So.. does Alex know about Danielle or has she always believed that Ben was her father? In the flashbacks, Juliet was approached by Mr Alpert from Mittelos BioScience who was really keen on appointing her as a member for their project that is located just outside 'Portland' which she rejected because her ex-husband will not allow it to happen. She flippantly suggested that if Edmund Burke somehow got hit by bus, maybe she will change her mind. Well... it did happened! In front of her own eyes as well.. Of course those Mittlelos had something to do with it. At the morgue, Ethan and Alpert somehow appeared while Juliet was grieving and asked her to reconsider the offer. How did he know about Juliet's successful experiment on her sis Rachel? Juliet has impregnated a male field mouse once and that was also another factor these Dharma related guys were so eager to recruit her. And of course she accepted the position but was told not to bring her sis along because the location is not really in Portland but "somewhere more remote". After the operation on Ben has ended, Juliet told Jack she has been on the island 3 years, 2 months and 28 days. What about the island making everyone infertile if that is indeed the reason they brought Juliet there?




Looks like Halle Berry and her boyfriend Gabriel isn't too bothered about V-Day this year. He told People mag: "I don't think it's about gifts. It's more about presence. You have to be there. You can't really spend Valentine's Day apart. I can't be in New York if she's in L.A. It doesn't work. So I try to be there most of the time and that's more precious to me." It's just another one of those hyped up days for them.

Sandra Bullock at the "Music and Lyrics" Premiere in L.A. (07/02/2007)




Drew Barrymore is the worst singer ever? She sings in her new film 'Lucky You' and had to have lessons with a vocal coach. Drew said: "I have been told my whole life that I have positively the worst voice that any human being ever had bestowed upon them. The list of people who've said that is long! Everyone from loving and supportive friends to other people I have worked with." Even after months of singing lessons Drew's voice was still only just "passable". She added: "That was like climbing Mount Everest for me." How difficult was it for the people who encountered those vocal sessions you might wonder. Perhaps it is 'hard to explain'.




JFL - Things To Do In an Elevator
1) When there's only one other person in the elevator, tap them on the shoulder and then pretend it wasn't you.

2) Push the buttons and pretend they give you a shock. Smile, and go back for more.

3) Hold the doors open and say you're waiting for a friend. After a while, let the doors close, and say, "Hi Greg. How's your day been?"

4) Drop a pen and wait until someone goes to pick it up, then scream, "That's mine!"

5) Pretend you are a flight attendant and review emergency procedures and exits with the passengers.

6) Ask, "Did you feel that?"

7) Swat at flies that don't exist.

8) Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and muttering, "Shut up, all of you, just shut up!"

9) Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside, ask, "Got enough air in there?"

10) Stare at another passenger for a while, then announce in horror, "Your one of THEM!" and back away slowly.
