Adoptive Ambitions For Penelope Cruz

Penelope Cruz spoke to Marie Claire about her ambitions beyond showbiz, focusing on her desire to start a family.

Not only does Penelope wish to have kids of her own, but she also has hopes of adopting some day.

“Of course I want to have kids,” the 32-year-old Cruz recently told the Spanish edition of Marie Claire. “I want to have my own kids, but also adopt. For a while I’ve had the feeling that my life won’t be complete if I don’t adopt.”

Johansson Tops Alba For Glamour’s Sexiest Body

Scarlett Johansson has won a Glamour magazine poll for the sexiest body in the world. While these polls carry little real meaning, it’s always interesting to see how they rank the current “IT” girls.

With the top slot, Scarlett may indeed be redefining what men and women consider sexy by returning to an old standard of beauty.

Glamour spoke about the “Lost In Translation” actress, stating, “With curves to rival Marilyn Monroe, Scarlett embraces old-school Hollywood style and exudes body confidence. Does she ever have an off day? In a word, no. It seems that curves are in and size zeroes are not the most admired.”

Halle Berry and Parade Square Off

Being the case, it’s no wonder Halle’s up in arms over Parade magazine’s decision to highlight her suicide attempt in their recent article on the actress.

Berry recently spoke out against the publication, saying they regurgitated quotes from old interviews and “sensationalized” her story about her suicide attempts.

Nicole Kidman Denies Pregnancy Claims

Contrary to widely-spreading rumors, Nicole Kidman has adamantly denied reports that she is pregnant. The denials came after Nicole arrived home in Australia with country star husband Keith Urban, with Kidman readying to start work on a new film.

The claim that Nicole was expecting Keith’s child, first published in Britain’s News of the World tabloid, was dismissed as “100 percent not true” by Kidman’s publicist. The amount of time between News of the World’s story and the denial led more and more to believe that Kidman actually was pregnant. Not so.
