Newlyweds and reality TV stars Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag (now Mr. and Mrs. Pratt) cut their honeymoon short in Mexico because of the swine (now H1N1) flu. They were planning on staying a week but they left right after making the video for Heidi’s new single at Cabo.

“After the best day of both our lives, Heidi and I left LA Sunday for Cabo to shoot the music video for Heidi’s new single, “Blackout.” We planned to stay through Sunday. Unfortunately, due to the pig flu epidemic, the Pratts are headed home this evening. Heidi’s new EP is available on iTunes today — check it out! ” Spencer reveals to Life & Style. [Source]

What I don’t get is why they left for Mexico in the first place. Surely they must have known about the threat before they left. Why did they go? Why didn’t they honeymooon somewhere else? WHY ARE THESE TWO EVEN FAMOUS?

Actress and model Rebecca Romijn has reportedly lost nearly 60 pounds after giving birth without the help of a gym. She gave birth last December to twins Dolly and Charlie. Without a proper workout plan, she managed to lose around 35 pounds the first three weeks after birth and she never stopped! How did she do it?

“Breastfeeding is the very best diet I’ve been on. It’s amazing,” she says. “It’s like you have to eat 5,000 extra calories a day or you can’t produce enough food for them. So, that’s been fun as well.”

But she admits she isn’t completely back to her pre-baby bod.

“I’m not pretending to be back to the shape I was in beforehand anyway. I still have a ways to go…We’ve got Spanx underneath almost everything…” she says. [Source]

Tsk, tsk. Some girls have all the  luck. What happens if she finally finds time to go to the gym? Will she blow us all away with how amazing her body will look? Well, I guess she will. Even though I am 90% envious, I can say with utmost honesty that I am excited to see her post-pregnancy bikini body.

Top Gun actress Kelly McGillis has finally admitted that she is gay. After two divorces and two children, she revealed to lesbian website, Shewire.com that she is now looking for a woman. She also said that she has been struggling with her sexuality ever since she was 12. She is now 51.

“It was a long, arduous journey for me,” she went on. “I had a lot of things happen that convinced me that God was punishing me because I was gay. That was a hard process.”

“Life is a freaking journey. and it’s about growing and changing and coming to terms with who and what you are and loving who you are,” added the actress, who had a guest role on Showtime’s lesbian drama The L Word last year. [Source]

Good for you, Kelly!

Jennifer Garner has been dressing down lately and it looks like she might be getting her inspiration from her 3-year old daughter. The “Ghosts of Girlfriend’s Past” actress claims that hubby Ben Affleck is responsible for Violet’s bohemian look and describes how she knows when Ben has been at Violet’s hair.

“Ben [Affleck] will do the school run. He dresses her and does her hair. It’s pretty funny,” she tells May’s InStyle (via JustJared). “You can always tell when he has been at it, just two random barrettes hanging in there. It’s so sweet.”

As for herself, Garner, 37, says, “I never go nuts with my look. It’s easy to feel like you’ve gone into caricature territory when you do.”

These days, the actress adds, “I wear less makeup than earlier in my career, but I know a lot more about it now.” [Source]

Such is the life of a busy mom. Garner still knows how to glam it up though. She always seems to look great when she needs to.

Now, this is weird. Rupert Everett has basically completely reinvented himself. The actor is in New York doing a Broadway play right now and unveiled his new look on a recent episode of The Martha Stewart show.

According to Dr. Brian S. Glatt, founder of the Premier Plastic Surgery Center of New Jersey, Rupert, 49, has had a comprehensive series of facial procedures. “I think Rupert had a face-lift,” Dr. Glatt tells Star. “His cheeks are fuller and lifted, and his jawline and neck are pulled back and smoother.”

As for his forehead, Dr. Glatt says it’s simply Botox. “I think he’s definitely using it. He is very animated, and there are no lines visible on his forehead.”

The last element in Rupert’s new look, says Dr. Glatt, is a chin implant! “The shape and projection of the chin is drastically different. It’s much more pointed,” he says.

In all, the surgeries could have set Rupert back almost $25,000!

But it was worth it. Dr. Glatt, who has not treated the actor, observes, “This is an impressive difference. He looks 10 years younger!” [Source]

Sure, he looks younger. He looks like a younger, completely different person. I don’t know how people can get this amount of surgery and then wake up every morning, look at themselves in the mirror and think, “yep, that’s me!” Why do we all hate ourselves so much?

Josh Hartnett is blaming bad water for his recent trip to Cedars-Sinai. The actor was rushed to the hospital a few weeks ago after complaining of persistent GI distress (read: diarrhea and cramping) and is saying that his trip to Mexico and a few other third-world countries might have been what started it.

“It’s been reoccurring because I have been spending a lot of time in Third World countries, and I occasionally drank the water when I shouldn’t have — and sometimes it catches up with you,” the actor said on Wednesday. “I was so dehydrated that I needed to be on a couple of IVs.” [Source]

Apparently, the gut bomb didn’t slow Josh down too much. He’s been spotted out and about partying in both Miami Beach and NYC. Let’s hope he’s just drinking ginger ale and bitters.

This was definitely a difficult week on The Biggest Loser. Laura was sent packing because of the injury she suffered to her hip, bringing everyone, including tough-trainer Jillian Michaels, to tears. But even though Laura was always a bit difficult to motivate on the show, she’s working hard back home. She recently sat down with People.com to discuss life off the ranch and how The Biggest Loser has changed her.

How is your hip feeling and what are your workouts routines like?
I’m much better. My workouts mainly consist of going to physical therapy and cardio, which is limited to spinning on the bike or doing sit-down cardio because I can’t put any pressure or weight on my hips. My hip is still fractured. … So mainly, it’s just upper body weights, the bike and swimming, but I prefer being in a gym and listening to my music.

With Jillian’s help, were you able to work through the emotional issues and get to the bottom of why you gained weight?
Yes, one thing was my father passing away from cancer when I was 15. I was filling that emptiness with food. My parents were divorced since I was 5 and being on my own as an only child, I was always looking for food as a comfort. I always related food with my emotional self and now I’m learning that I can’t use food as an emotional crutch anymore. [Source]

Can’t wait to see Laura on the last episode.

Real Houswife Jill Zarin is taking a load off. I never realized her boobs were so big but apparently they were and Zarin was fed up. The reality TV star opted for reduction surgery and sounds pretty happy about her choice.

Jill Zarin ended up getting a breast reduction surgery recently, cutting her G-cups down to…well, something smaller. She said she feels 20 pounds lighter. Bravo and Jill were trying to keep it a secret so they could reveal it on the next season of Real Housewives of New York, but the secret slipped out. [Source]

Don’t these people know that when you opt to expose your life on national TV, your rights to privacy go right out the window? Zarin and her cronies don’t get to keep secrets anymore and the quicker they come to terms with that, the better.
