Bearing the most politically charged cover of the week, inTouch has an “exclusive interview” with Sarah and Bristol Palin, who are “glad [they] chose life.” In a situation straight out of Father of the Bride Part II, the younger Palin says having infants at the same time brought the mother-daughter pair closer. The former Alaska governor admits that upon learning Trig had Down syndrome, “my husband was much more accepting and optimistic than I was.” But the Palins are all smiles now, though there aren’t current plans to extend their family further. “We have very candid talks with Willow now…. Saying, ‘Don’t screw up,’” Sarah Palin says of her younger daughter. Speaking of sisterly influences, inTouch also draws comparisons between Ali and Lindsay Lohan from style, to drinking, the crying fits on the phone—they are just like us! The magazine also places Eva Longoria Parker on bump watch and Angelina Jolie as well, claiming she’s “acting” pregnant by hiding behind purses, resisting alcohol, and seeing her French OB-GYN. On the rocky relationship front, Alex Rodriguez reportedly has a new non- Kate Hudson blonde on his arm, 25-year-old design consultant Elaine Spottswood. According to friends, the Nine star “feels like an idiot now.”
Ever the publicity magnet, Heidi Montag freely discusses her escalating plastic surgery habit with People this week, and admits to getting 10 procedures done in just one day, including liposuction, Botox, fat injections, and having her ears pinned back. “I am absolutely beyond obsessed,” she explains. “My ultimate dream is to be a pop star. I’m competing against the Britney Spearses of the world.” Husband Spencer Pratt is surprisingly down to earth about the whole thing and according to Montag he’s “very resistant” to her penchant for operations. Friends and family of Casey Johnson are still spinning from the heiress’ unexpected death last week, and are now discussing what’s best for her adopted daughter Ava, and Johnson’s sister Jamie says that their mother has been “teaching Ava about angels.” Outside of Hollywood, President Obama and his wife Michelle Obama talked to People about their first year in the White House. The president spoke optimistically about health-care reform and improving the economy, and even Tiger Woods. “I’m sure he feels terrible about what happened, and I suspect that he will try to put his life back together again,” said Obama. Among the president’s goals for 2010? “Resisting pie.”
In what appears to be a 2007 flashback, Britney Spears has allegedly gone wild, while her father reportedly threatens to send her to the psych ward again. “She literally pulled out her hair, cut her hair and then called someone to put more hair extensions in only to pull or cut it all out again,” a source says of her latest alleged fit. Leonardo DiCaprio is reportedly taking his mom’s advice not to let Bar Refaeli get away—he will allegedly propose on Valentine’s Day. On the wedding beat, The Enquirer reports Derek Jeter couldn’t marry Minka Kelly until Alex Rodriguez dumped Kate Hudson. The younger actress reportedly said of Hudson, “There’s no way that woman is coming to my wedding!” In baby news, Robert Pattinson’s mom is allegedly hoping he knocks up Kristen Stewart. Although Sarah Palin told inTouch she’s firm with daughter Willow after one family teen pregnancy, a friend tells The Enquirer the 15-year-old hangs out “with the wrong crowd,” drinking alcohol and smoking pot. Despite the serious baby-mama drama that erupted the last time John Edwards cheated, he is reportedly back on the prowl, allegedly trying to pick up bartenders and elementary school teachers younger than his own daughter in North Carolina.
Can nothing go right for Kate Gosselin? The newly single reality-TV mom recently changed up her trademark wedge haircut with some pricey extensions, but sources say that she “hates” the new look: “She’s afraid people will think she’s one of Tiger Woods’ bimbos,” said an insider. In the on-again-off-again department, Kate Hudson is reportedly back in touch with ex Owen Wilson (they’ve dated and split three times before) in the wake of her breakup with A-Rod. Things seem to have fizzled out as quickly as they started between mismatched couple Jessica Simpson and Billy Corgan, and Corgan reportedly told a friend “I just got bored. I like talking about philosophy, the meaning of life and deeper issues, and she had nothing to say.” Photos have once again surfaced of stylist Rachel Zoe looking scary skinny as she vacations in a too-loose bikini, re-heating rumors of an eating disorder. Though Zoe claims to be naturally thin, a friend told the mag about her questionable diet habits, saying, “She never eats. She moves food around her plate and only drinks nonfat lattes.”
The end may finally be in sight for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie as rumored tensions between the power couple continue to escalate. Pitt is reportedly fed up and planning an exit strategy from Jolie, who he believes is obsessive in seeking photo ops for the couple and their six kids. Meanwhile, Jolie is convinced that Pitt is cheating, and allegedly considered hiring a private detective to track him. “Angie feels like she’s losing control, and she doesn’t like it,” said a source. After dumping three-years younger Taylor Lautner, has Taylor Swift moved on to 12-years-older John Mayer? Swift was seen having a cozy dinner with the notorious serial dater, and while Mayer sipped on wine, the underage 20-year-old abstained. While some rumors have it that Tiger Woods has entered rehab for sex addiction, Star reports that Woods has been secretly meeting up for middle-of-the-night sex with his favorite mistress, Rachel Uchitel, and that the two even wear disguises to avoid being seen. “She brags about how she’s going to be the next Mrs. Tiger Woods,” said a friend. “She even talks about having little Tiger cubs.”
Five years after the most famous love triangle exploded in the news, Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie are still feuding, pushing the latter and her boyfriend and baby daddy Brad Pitt to ditch the Golden Globes on Sunday. “As strong as she may look,” a Jolie source says, “she’s actually very scared of Jen.” The feeling is seemingly mutual—“They despise each other and it’s always going to be that way,” another insider says. Lindsay Lohan did not have much fun in the sun in St. Barts when she broke down upon hearing Casey Johnson died. But a friend says the news didn’t scare Lohan enough, as some had hoped it would end her partying ways. In their version of the Kendra Wilkinson and Kourtney Kardashian baby “ exclusive,” the former Playboy pinup says she hopes to keep the curves her pregnancy gave her. “We have a mirror over our bed… We were like, ‘Look at this booty!’” Wilkinson tells Ok! On the Kardashian front, while Kourtney dotes over her reportedly newly attentive boyfriend Scott Disick, sister Khloe tells Ok! she hopes to add a boy to the female-dominated family.
For this week’s “exclusive,” despite also sharing Ok!’s cover, Kourtney Kardashian and Kendra Wilkinson dish to Life & Style about their latest additions. Kim Kardashian says of her nephew Mason, “Sometimes I kiss him so hard he cries.” Former Girls Next Door star Wilskinson, however, got something else from her son, Hank Jr. “He almost peed in my face today,” she said. Speaking of tough times, Sandra Bullock told the People’s Choice Award audience that “life is hard,” a reference, Life & Style claims, to the custody battle over her stepdaughter. Five-year-old Sunny’s reportedly unfit biological mother, Janine Lindemulder claims her ex, Bullock’s husband Jesse James , refused to give up Sunny on Christmas Eve, while another source says Lindemulder relinquished her visit. Tension is also mounting for the cast of Jersey Shore, as “The Situation’s” head is catching up with his abs. The MTV reality star showed up four hours late for a Life & Style shoot and cracked open two beers instead of apologizing to the rest of fist-pumping housemates. Although Casey Johnson’s tragic death brought old friends Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton back together, it’s tearing MySpace superfriend Tila Tequila apart. ‘She will be next if she doesn’t help herself,” an insider says of the late heiress’ fiancée.
