Nicole Kidman Admits to Using Botox

http://www.ommino.com/

Reports say that Nicole Kidman has finally admitted that she had received Botox injections, after years of denying claims that said otherwise.

The Daily Mail reports that Kidman made the confession to a German magazine when asked how she kept her wrinkles at bay. She replied, "I've tried a lot of things, but apart from working out and a good diet, most things don't help."

Kidman continued, "I even tried Botox, but I didn't like how my face looked afterward. Now I don't use it anymore – and I can move my forehead again."

The 'Rabbit Hole' actress previously told Marie Claire in 2007, "To be honest, I am completely natural. I have nothing in my face or anything. I wear sunscreen, and I don't smoke. I take care of myself. And I'm very proud to say that."
In 2008, the Daily Mail reported that Dr. Braun, a leading Botox doctor, was convinced Kidman was an "enthusiastic user" of Botox.

Braun told a cosmetic medicine conference in Queensland, Australia, "Nicole seems to get her Botox done two or three weeks before a big event, so when she, for instance, goes up on stage to collect her Academy Award she looks frozen and strange."

He continued, "She looks like a bat with too much of an (outer) brow lift. The middle of the brow's been dropped. She's crying when she accepts her Oscar, but nothing is moving."

In Kidman's latest big screen venture, 'Rabbit Hole,' she portrays a woman who is deep in grief over a lost child. As a mom of three herself, Kidman explained that the role took quite an emotional toll.

"We had to talk it through," she said. "Keith was incredibly supportive through the whole thing,"

She continued, "I had a lot of really bad dreams, which I know means my subconscious has been affected deeply. Keith would hold me. I'd wake up and be crying, and that happened a lot. But there's people going through this, and I was trying to be truthful and real."

Kidman is a hot favorite to receive an Oscar nomination for her performance in the movie.

Ryan Phillippe and Amanda Seyfried

http://www.ommino.com/

It looks like Ryan Phillippe and Amanda Seyfried are still enjoying each other's company.

Phillippe recently stopped by the LA set of Seyfried's latest film, 'Now,' for a visit with the actress, who greeted him with a hug, according to the Daily Mail. The two grabbed some food on set before going for a walk together.

The next day, the pair enjoyed breakfast with friends at Joan's on Third, where the couple "was really cute," an onlooker told the magazine. "The two of them smiled the whole time."

Though the couple have not confirmed their relationship, they have been quietly dating since being introduced by friends at Kate Hudson's Halloween party last fall.

"They're really into each other," a source told PEOPLE. "They're a really good match and just enjoying it all right now."
Phillippe's rumored romance comes on the heels of ex-wife Reese Witherspoon's engagement to Hollywood agent Jim Toth. Phillippe and Witherspoon were married for seven years and divorced in 2006. They have two children together.

Amanda Seyfried

http://www.ommino.com/

This doe-eyed "mean girl" has starred as everything from singing/dancing wife-to-be to demon slaying best friend of Megan Fox. Next up, she'll star in the Catherine Hardwicke-directed, Leonardo DiCaprio-produced Red Riding Hood. The dark, seductive take on the classic children's story features Amanda in some racy situations and the big, bad wolf is actually a big, bad werewolf. And Amanda is only getting seductive on screen, things are heating up between the bombshell and actor, Ryan Phillippe.

Britney Spears' 'Hold It Against Me' Leaks Online a Day Ahead of Official Release

http://www.ommino.com/

Leading up to the release of her new single, 'Hold It Against Me,' Britney Spears has been hinting and winking at her legions of fans, but she's kept a surprisingly tight lid on the single itself. Sure, the demo dropped last week, but unlike countless other artists, Spears had been able to keep the final version under wraps -- until now.

A day ahead of its official release, 'Hold It Against Me' has found its way online, and it seems Spears has yet another big hit on her hands.

Enjoy it while you can!

The song is produced by unstoppable hitmakers Max Martin and Dr. Luke. Martin is a Spears stalwart, having written and/or produced her hits '...Baby One More Time,' 'If You Seek Amy' and her most recent No. 1 hit, '3.'

Having had an unbelievable 2010, Dr. Luke is among the biggest producers in music right now. If you are a Katy Perry fan, you can pretty much thank Luke, who produced, ahem, 'I Kissed a Girl,' 'Hot N Cold,' 'California Gurls' and 'Teenage Dream.' His work on Perry's 'Teenage Dream' album earned him an Album of the Year Grammy nomination.

He and Martin are longtime collaborators, joining forces to produce hits for Kelly Clarkson ('My Life Would Suck Without You'), Pink ('Who Knew'), T.I. ('That's All She Wrote') and Ke$ha ('Kiss N Tell').

The demo version of Spears' 'Hold It Against Me,' with vocals by singer/songwriter Bonnie McKee, found its way onto the Internet late last week. The bass-thumping, synth-heavy dance track features lyrics like, "If I said my heart was beating loud, if we could escape the crowd somehow / If I said I want your body now, would you hold it against me? / 'Cause you feel like paradise and I need a vacation tonight / So if I said I want your body now, would you hold it against me?"

Oscar Boycott Story 'Not True,' Says Tom Cruise's Spokesperson

http://www.ommino.com/

EXCLUSIVE UPDATE: Tom Cruise's people are slapping down a Daily Mail report alleging the 'War of the Worlds' actor and wife Katie Holmes are skipping the Oscars because the event is being co-hosted by Anne Hathaway. Why would someone boycott an event because of Anne Hathaway? A source told the Mail that Holmes was not amused by her peer's recent impression of her on 'Saturday Night Live.'

But as quickly as the story has spread, a spokesperson for Cruise tells PopEater that it is "not true and made up" and that the famous pair had no plans of attending the Oscars before Hathaway's somewhat unflattering skit.
The Daily Mail quoted a now-debunked source saying, "Tom and Katie don't want to have to cross paths with Anne" after the skit. The source said that the couple used to be friends with Hathaway and supported her when she split from her then-boyfriend, Raffaello Follieri, in 2008.

Thirty Minutes in Football Heaven With Erin Andrews

http://www.ommino.com/

When Auburn and Oregon face off on January 10th in the BCS championship game, it will mark an interesting first in the history of college football: the first time a cable network will own the rights to broadcast the season's biggest game. The lucky network? ESPN. That means lucky viewers will get to spend a good portion of their evening with Erin Andrews, America's favorite sideline reporter. Andrews is just wrapping up her rookie season as the host of the first hour of ESPN's flagship Saturday program, College GameDay, and she'll be roving the sidelines on the tenth. Days ahead of the game, we spoke with Andrews to get her take on the title matchup, her feelings about the career-boosting-but-emotionally-ravaging double-edged sword of the Internet age, and her secrets for how a woman can survive and thrive in a macho man's industry.
I noticed your Twitter avatar is from your old GQ shoot.
Yeah, it is! A lot of pro football players, like NFL guys, have seen that and they're like, EA, that's awesome, your arms look jacked! Other people say I look like Jeremy Shockey. I think it looks awesome.
Agreed. So, ESPN has the BCS title game for the first time this year. Do you think the ESPN brass were happy with the game they got?
Oh, my gosh, yeah. Especially when you saw the way the season was unfolding—that, really, the powerhouses weren't going to represent themselves. It was just such a weird year—I think Oregon was ranked 11th in the preseason. Personally, I wanted to see Cam Newton in the national championship and I love to see other teams that have success go up against SEC teams. The SEC has won four straight BCS titles, so we'll see how Auburn does against Oregon. And I really am a big fan of what Oregon has done, they wear out defenses while the Duck is doing thousands of pushups a game. I think this is a perfect matchup.
Have you gotten any insight on the game?
I just spent a couple of days in Eugene and I was privy to some practices. They're trying to do anything they can to get a feel for what Cam can do on the field. He's bigger than eight of their defensive starters! They've never faced anything like him. Really, no one in college football has faced anything like him. It's going to be a big challenge for Oregon. Last year, they lost in the Rose Bowl against Terrelle Pryor, who isn't Cam Newton by any means, but he's a beast on the field, too. But Cam's on a different level.
What are your thoughts on Mark Cuban and his proposed college football playoffs?
I haven't read into it. Honestly, all these people with all these great ideas—and I'm a friend of Mark Cuban's, I like talking to him—but I really haven't looked at it. I mean, it's not going to happen. Everybody comes up with their own theory.
In this country, sports in general—and college football in particular—seems to be a unique window into the passions of men. From your vantage, as a female reporter and host, what have you learned about the American male?
They're all pretty much the same. Whether it comes to injuries, stubbornness, they're pretty much… yeah, they're all wired the same. They don't really bother themselves with complex issues in the world. They just think about the next task at hand, not a lot of overanalyzing there.
Do you think that's unique to athletes? Or men in general?
Yeah, I mean, there are the exceptions. But I tend to really look up to the athletes and coaches—I call them ballers—the ones that put everything on the line, play hurt. I have friends who play with head injuries, and you're sitting there begging them not to play.
I know it's not something you want to dwell on but part of a sideline reporter and host's appeal is openness, interacting with the fans, so I'm wondering how the hotel-room incident and the more recent death threats have changed the way you interact. Do you view fans more skeptically?
Not just the way I work, but the way I live my life has changed. I used to be the person that would run up to fans, throw my arms around them, and take pictures. And while I'll still do that, I'm not really good with people running up behind me. That frightens me. We had an incident on College GameDay this year where a kid flipped over the fence and tried to get onstage to give me a hug, and I panicked. You know, when you ve been stalked and you've had death threats your outlook is a little different, unfortunately, you're not as carefree and easy-going as you were, and you're very guarded. You gotta be safe! There are some crazies out there.
Sideline reporting has clearly become a woman's "in" to the world of men's sports. Is there camaraderie within the ranks? Do you go to the older vets for advice? Do younger women come to you?
That's really been a cool thing for me. Sage Steele, who's now anchoring SportsCenter on the weekends, was really good to me when I was 18, 19 years old. She was working in Tampa; she took me under her wing. When I was interning, other women were not as instructive to me and I understand people are always worrying about their jobs and stuff, but I vowed I would never turn my back on someone who I could tell was eager.
Does it ever concern you when new girls get in the game—that they might be stepping on your brand?

She's shedding her Disney good girl image

http://www.ommino.com/

While watching 'Hellcats' star Ashley Tisdale strut down the blue carpet at the 2011 People's Choice Awards, we couldn't help but wonder if the actress's absurdly orange skin tone was the result of her own doing, a tanning salon prank or if she had been an innocent bystander in a catfight between the cast of 'Jersey Shore.'

Either way, one thing is certain: Her very bronzed look detracted from her feminine Farah Angsana dress.

Tisdale, whose CW series was nominated for Best New TV Drama, virtually blended in with her printed floor-length gown due to her complexion.

With her dark brown locks pulled into a loose chignon, which paired perfectly with her flowy strapless dress, the former Disney diva could have been a blue carpet hit had she only taken the tanning down a notch.
In addition to 'Hellcats,' Tisdale is at work on 'Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure,' in which she plays an actress whose dog finds more acting gigs than she does.

Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens: Are They Back On?

'High School Musical' sweethearts Vanessa Hudgens, 21, and Zac Efron, 23, announced last month that they were breaking up amicably after nearly five years together.

But now, they may be singing a different tune. Eyewitnesses report seeing the two canoodling in Los Angeles this weekend, suggesting the romance may not be over, after all.

At the opening of LA nightclub Eden Hollywood, "The two showed up around 10:45PM through the back entrance with a group of friends, and were holding hands at different points throughout the night," a source on the scene tells Us Weekly.

And reportedly, more PDA was spotted as Efron and Hudgens enjoyed their night on the town with pals, including actress Brittany Snow.
"Vanessa was bopping around with her arms up, while Zac had his hands all over her," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "Vanessa had a smile on from ear to ear, and the two were inseparable after that."

When they relaxed at a table, clubgoers saw even more affection from the pair. "Zac sat in between her legs, and she wrapped her arms around him," says PEOPLE's source. "They were making out on and off for the last hour or so until closing. They acted like there was no one else in the room."

Earlier this year, before splitting with Hudgens, Efron hinted at restlessness in his love life, telling Details magazine, "Believe me, I wrack my brain thinking, 'Why am I not out there playing the field?'... But it's not in my heart."

Growing pains are common in any young relationship -- and in any young star's career, for that matter. The former Disney teen idols are both striving to succeed with more grown-up fare these days: Hudgens starred as heroin addict Mimi in a recent stage production of 'Rent,' while Efron, who recently picked up a trophy for Favorite Movie Star Under 25 at the People's Choice Awards, played a grief-stricken big brother in last year's feature film drama 'Charlie St. Cloud.' Efron is currently filming 'The Lucky One,' in which he plays a young U.S. Marine, in New Orleans. Time will tell if the couple's long romance can mature any further, or whether they'll split up for good.

Scarlett 'Devastated' by Ryan and Sandra's Budding Romance

http://www.ommino.com/

By now, everyone has heard about the rumored romance between Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. That includes the actor's soon-to-be ex-wife, Scarlett Johansson, who, I'm told by friends, isn't too happy.

"Scarlett is a deeply private person, who during her entire marriage was only ever seen and photographed with her husband a handful of times," a friend of the actress tells me. "Now, less than a month after they split that fool has gone and got himself photographed with [with Bullock] on New Year's Eve of all days. Of course she is devastated."
Images of Sandra and Ryan celebrating New Year's together at Bess Bistro, which Sandra owns in Texas, depicting the actress dressed as a flapper, showed up just over a week ago. A source at the time told me that the two were leaning on each other for support.

Bullock's rep has insisted they are "nothing more than friends," but sources tell RadarOnline.com on Monday that the pair are "very much dating" and that they've even made a trip or two to her Jackson Hole, Wyo., getaway.

No one is suggesting that Sandra, who has clearly moved on from her split with Jesse James, had anything to do with Ryan and Scarlett's downfall, but that hasn't made this any less painful for the 'Lost in Translation' starlet.

"Even if they are not a couple yet, this is very awkward for Scarlett. She too thinks of Sandy as a friend and hates the thought that Sandy is on team Ryan after the breakup, that is if she isn't already his girlfriend," an insider tells me.

Megan Fox "face of beauty"

http://www.ommino.com/

Playing the part of sultry seductress is all in a day's work for Megan Fox.

The 24-year-old actress is making her debut as the new face of Giorgio Armani Beauty, with a just-released video spot that combines a hypnotic beat with equally mesmerizing close-up shots of the bombshell.

Transforming from dewy and neutral girl-next-door to full-on smoky eyed glamazon with hot red lips to match, Fox shows that she can pull off a variety of the brand's makeup looks.

Armani says that he chose Fox as the new face of his beauty empire because, "she embodies the spirit of the women of today: free, confident and seductive. Her beautiful features reveal femininity, sensuality and strength."

'Lindsay Lohan' out the rehab and enjoy life

http://www.ommino.com/

A newly blond Lindsay Lohan sat courtside with a friend as the Los Angeles Lakers took on the New York Knicks Sunday night, according to Radar Online.

Lohan, who recently completed a rehab program, sported lighter locks in the Staples Center and looked relaxed while enjoying the game with friend and jeweler Pascal Mouawad.

Mouawad recently gave the actress a necklace that is reportedly worth $25,000 and features a 10.10 carat diamond. The sparkler, from the jeweler's Masterpiece collection, apparently resembles the famous "Heart of the Ocean" necklace from 'Titanic.'

The two enjoyed the game, and Lohan introduced her pal to director Spike Lee, who was also in attendance.

Lohan's night on the town comes after weeks of ups and downs regarding her rehab stay and possible probation violations. The actress could face further legal ramifications after a reported altercation with a former staff member at the Betty Ford Center, where she completed her rehab.
But for now, Lohan seems to be focusing on her future and moving on from her troubled past.

She recently moved into a Venice Beach house next to friend Samantha Ronson and is enjoying driving a new Range Rover, worth a reported $135,000, which she borrowed from a Beverly Hills garage, according to the Daily Mail.

"Glee" actresses get naughty 'sexy cover shoot'

GQ editor in chief Jim Nelson responded to a concerned Parents Television Council on the subject of his magazine's sexy 'Glee' photo shoot, telling The Insider: "The Parents Television Council must not be watching much TV these days and should learn to divide reality from fantasy."

According to TMZ, the Parents Television Council said the magazine's photo shoot "borders on pedophilia," adding it is "disturbing that GQ, which is explicitly written for adult men, is sexualizing the actresses who play high school-aged characters on 'Glee' in this way."

GQ's Nelson responded without mincing words: "As often happens in Hollywood, these 'kids' are in their twenties. Cory Monteith is almost 30! I think they're old enough to do what they want."

In PopEater's recap of the photo shoot and article yesterday, we noted Dianna Agron's comment, "I've never been shot in so littleclothing." We also noted she is 24 years old.

In Agron's blog, the actress apologized to all offended parties. "In the land of Madonna, Britney, Miley, Gossip Girl, other public figures and shows that have pushed the envelope and challenged the levels of comfort in their viewers and fans, we are not the first ... If you are hurt or these photos make you uncomfortable, it was never our intention. And if your eight-year-old has a copy of our GQ cover in hand, again I am sorry. But I would have to ask, how on earth did it get there?"

"For GQ, they asked us to play very heightened versions of our school characters. A 'Hit Me Baby One More Time' version. At the time, it wasn't my favorite idea, but I did not walk away. I must say, I am trying to live my life with a sharpie marker approach. You can't erase the strokes you've made, but each step is much bolder and more deliberate. I'm moving forward from this one, and after today, putting it to rest. I am only myself, I can only be me," she wrote.

Nonetheless, the PTC calls the Terry Richardson photo shoot "near-pornographic," adding, "The creators of ['Glee'] have established their intentions on the show's direction. And it isn't good for families."
