Jennifer Aniston Covers InStyle March 2012


Her new film "Wanderlust" makes its way into theaters on February 24th, and as part of her press efforts Jennifer Aniston offered up her star power for the March 2012 cover issue of InStyle.

The soon-to-be 43-year-old struck enchanting poses for the Michelangelo Di Battista shot magazine's dual covers while dishing on topics ranging from misconceptions about her and her obsession with 'laser porn' to her hunky boyfriend, Justin Theroux.

Highlights from Miss Aniston's interview are as follows. For more, be sure to visit InStyle!

On her culinary skills:
"I'd love to say I'm an accomplished cook, but I don't have any signature dishes. I'm good at breakfast - I make great eggs. My father gave me a little recipe. It's all in the seasoning. But it's a Greek secret. I won't give it away!"

On the most annoying misconception about her:
"Which one? There are so many. I would say the triangle with my ex-husband - and that there's a feud there. It's constant. It's a story headline that won't go away, but it's a money thing - [people make money off] a story that has nothing to do with reality."

On her favorite thing about boyfriend Justin Theroux's style:
"First of all, he has great style - it's very specific, and it has been his style forever. Has it influenced mine? No, but I know people say it has.'Oh, look, you're dressing alike.' And I think, no I'm not. I've had this jacket for three years!"

On what career she'd pick if she had to change:
"Directing. I was very proud of producing and directing for the beautiful project 'Five.' Or I'd love to be a dermatologist. I'd be so obsessive about it. I'm fascinated by skin, products, and lasers. I go on the Internet and read all about it. I call it 'laser porn.'"

On the biggest risk she's taken in life:
"I'm not sure. Just walking out of the house can be a risk!"

Kim, Kourtney & Kris Have a "Perfect Sunday"


Joining up for a spiritually focused start to the day, Kim Kardashian attended a Sunday service at the family church with sister Kourtney, nephew Mason and mother Kris Jenner this morning (February 5).

The E! reality stars looked well put together as they took in the sermon before heading off to grab a bite to eat for lunch at a local eatery.

Keeping her fans up to date on her weekend doings, Kim tweeted, "Early morning workout done now off to church with the family... Have a great day everyone!"

Quite pleased with the family togetherness, Kourtney added, "Church and family brunch...perfect Sunday!"

The Kardashian ladies' outing comes just two days ahead of Kim's scheduled appearance as a guest star on the ABC series "Last Man Standing".

With the cameo airing at 8/7c on Tuesday night (February 7), the brunette beauty told ET, "I play myself, so if I do bad at this, I have some issues. It's fun to play the more dramatic version of myself."

Emma Stone's Rio de Janeiro Arrival


Back on the road for press duties, Emma Stone made her way to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on Saturday (February 4).

The "Help" hottie looked worn down from the overseas flight as she deboarded her aircraft before being escorted through the crowded South American terminal.

Miss Stone is in town to attend a press junket for her upcoming movie "The Amazing Spider-Man" - which hits theaters in the States and Brazil on July 3, 2012.

Co-starring her real life beau Andrew Garfield (who didn't make to trip to Rio), the Marc Webb directed picture sees "Peter Parker find a clue that might help him understand why his parents disappeared when he was young. His path puts him on a collision course with Dr. Curt Connors, his father's former partner."

Elizabeth Banks Goes Red For Women


Stepping out to support National Heart Month, Elizabeth Banks donned a bright red and white polka dot dress at Macy's Herald Square in New York City on Friday (February 3).

The "Man On The Ledge" actress was there for the American Heart Association's Go Red For Women National Wear Red day and was joined by Nick Verreos and Star Jones.

As part of the Go Red For Women celebration Ms. Banks appeared in a short film titled "Just a Little Heart Attack".

Talking about the clip the blonde beauty says, "This little film is about a super mom who takes care of everyone except herself and learns the lessons that she better look at herself, as well."



"The Voice" Judges Fire Back at Randy Jackson


Closing out the week with a trio of talents, Ellen DeGeneres welcomed the coaches of "The Voice" to her daytime TV program for a pre-taping of an episode airing on Friday (February 3).

Grabbing seats on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" couches were Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton - who are trying their best to build up interest for their music competition series' second season debut airing after Super Bowl XLVI on February 5th.

In a preview of the sitdown interview found below, Christina, Adam and Blake voiced their resentment over critical comments made by "American Idol" judge Randy Jackson, who dubbed "The Voice" as a “second chance place."

In response, the always-outspoken Levine said, “Shame on Randy Jackson for saying that, because he, out of anybody, should know that if you’re in this business you need second, third, fourth and fifth chances. So we love and embrace that being part of the show.”

“You know, God bless Randy. He was a working musician for a long time and had a lot of success and then the show Idol kind of blew him out of the water. And he is a household name now. It was an irresponsible thing to say that," the Maroon 5 rocker added.

Crutched-Up Halle Berry Added as 2012 Oscars Presenter


Not letting her nagging foot injury keep her from tending to her motherly duties, Halle Berry hobbled her way out for a pre-school pickup in Beverly Hills, CA on Thursday afternoon (February 2).

The crutch-wielding 45-year-old actress was joined by a helping hand, as the family nanny toted little Nahla in her arms as Halle slowly but surely followed along to load into their nearby ride.

The outing comes just as it was announced earlier in the day that Miss Berry has been added to the lineup of celebrity presenters set to take the stage and dish out a trophy at the upcoming 84th Annual Academy Awards ceremony.

Halle, who won a Best Actress Oscar back in 2001 for her work in “Monster’s Ball,” joins fellow presenters including Tom Cruise, Jennifer Lopez and the cast of "Bridesmaids" as planned participants in the February 26th Tinseltown showcase.

Emma Watson Tapped for Your Voice in My Head


She spent the first ten years of her career starring in the blockbuster “Harry Potter” film franchise, and now Emma Watson has been selected for a role in a much smaller film, titled “Your Voice in My Head.”

Interestingly enough, Watson’s former “Potter” director David Yates is helming the adaptation of the Emma Forrest memoir, with the screenplay written by Forrest.

Per the official synopsis, “Emma Forrest, a British journalist, was just twenty-two and living the fast life in New York City when she realized that her quirks had gone beyond eccentricity. In a cycle of loneliness, damaging relationships, and destructive behavior, she found herself in the chair of a slim, balding, and effortlessly optimistic psychiatrist-a man whose wisdom and humanity would wrench her from the dangerous tide after she tried to end her life. She was on the brink of drowning, but she was still working, still exploring, still writing, and she had also fallen deeply in love. One day, when Emma called to make an appointment with her psychiatrist, she found no one there. He had died, shockingly, at the age of fifty-three, leaving behind a young family. Reeling from the premature death of a man who had become her anchor after she turned up on his doorstep, she was adrift. And when her all-consuming romantic relationship also fell apart, Emma was forced to cling to the page for survival and regain her footing on her own terms.”

While nothing has been made official yet, reports indicate that Warner Bros. is in talks to produce the project. Stay linked to the GossipCenter for the latest on this developing story.

Jake Gyllenhaal s London Stroll


Opting for some fresh air and exercise, Jake Gyllenhaal was spotted out for a walk in London, England this afternoon (February 1).

The “Brokeback Mountain” stud looked well-dressed and in good spirits, sporting a black ballcap, olive green winter coat, and khaki trousers.

And though they broke up over a year ago, Jake’s ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift is still feeling the effects of the split.

A source close to Swifty told press that she is still “haunted by that relationship,” and that Jake “totally screwed with her mind.” Don’t worry, there’s a song on Taylor’s upcoming album all about it!

Penelope Cruz Strikes a Pose for PETA


Stripping down for a cause she feels very passionate about, Penelope Cruz is the latest celebrity to be tapped for PETA’s newest ad campaign.

The “Pirates of the Carribean: On Stranger Tides” beauty’s ‘Give Fur the Cold Shoulder’ billboard is set to debut today (February 1) near New York City's Penn Station.

PETA’s Senior VP Lisa Lange released a statement to UsWeekly, saying, "Penelope has appeared on every 'best-dressed' list in the world, and the one thing you'll never see her wearing is fur.”

“PETA couldn't ask for a more fitting emblem of the modern, glamorous woman who knows that there's nothing more beautiful than a woman who has a look that kills without anyone having to die for it," the statement went on to say.
