Nick Lachey: 'Vanessa Lachey and I want more kids'


Nick Lachey has said that he and Vanessa Lachey are looking forward to having more kids.

The 98 Degrees star and his wife will celebrate their son Camden John Lachey's first birthday in September.

Nick recently revealed to Extra that he and Vanessa have plans to expand their family in the future.

"We definitely want to have more kids," the musician declared.

The 'Thank God I Found You' singer also discussed the prospect of turning 40 years old in November.

"Maybe it is because I'm incredibly immature, but 40 doesn't intimidate me the way even 30 did," he said. "It is actually the best time in my life, so turning 40 is going to be a celebration and life has never been better or more exciting."

Lachey recently suggested that becoming a father completely changed his outlook on life.

Cameron Diaz Engaged to Benji Madden

Did Cameron Diaz get a ring for Christmas? The Annie star is reportedly engaged to Benji Madden!

The 42-year-old actress and Good Charlotte rocker, 35, were first spotted together in the spring of this year. While it's unknown when during their seven-month courtship Madden popped the question, Diaz has been seen sporting various mysterious rings on that finger for a while now.

Most recently, Cameron has been consistently rocking a thick gold ring with dazzling stones. Next to it sits a thin gold band.
"It happened a few nights ago," a Madden source told People of the proposal. "All of Benji's friends are aware and happy for him. ... Her mom is a fan of him as well and gave her blessing."

"Everyone thinks it's wild but are so happy for them," a source told Us Weekly late last week. "Benji always tends to fall in love easily, but this time it's for real and he landed a great girl. They obviously both make each other incredibly happy and there's nothing better than that."

In the January issue of Cosmopolitan, Cameron deflected engagement questions, but discussed her thoughts on love (her previous high-profile relationships include Justin Timberlake, Alex Rodriguez, and Jared Leto).

"You have to find someone in the same place as you are. Timing is everything," she said. "If you get into a relationship where you want something the guy doesn't want, it's never gonna work. You're never going to get him to be in that place. No matter how old you are, finding the guy who's in the same place as you are and wants to show up is the only way a relationship works, period."

Months earlier, the actress discussed her views on kids and marriage.
"I'm not looking for a husband or marriage or not not looking for that stuff," she explained to Marie Claire. "I'm living, not thinking what I should or shouldn't be doing with my life."

She continued, “We live in a society where everyone has kids, so they want other people to have kids. There is this culture that says celebrities are supposed to be just like us, so people think, 'I have children, why doesn't she?' But I'm not going to do something because it’s expected. If a family happens, then it happens. If children come to me, then I would do that, but I'm not someone who feels like she has to do something because it's expected."

Nicole Richie played matchmaker for the couple, although they knew each other for years before giving their relationship a go.

"I approve of anything that's going to make Benji happy," Richie told Andy Cohen back in July (she is married to Benji's brother, Joel Madden). After divulging she was the one who set them up, Nicole added, "I'm going to take responsibility for everything!"

Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have sparked rumors of marriage after a recent police filing.

A romance between the pair has been heavily suggested, with reports that they are currently shopping for a home in Connecticut.

According to TMZ, Reynolds recently filed a police report in the town of Bedford Hills, New York after being followed by a photographer.

In a subsequent police report, an officer who investigated the incident wrote: "Upon arriving, I spoke with Ryan Reynolds and his wife... They explained that this individual was a photographer attempting to take pictures of them."

The officer continues to refer to Lively, whose name is redacted from the report, as Reynolds's wife, adding: "Mr Reynolds and his wife were advised to contact police should any persons enter their property or act in an aggressive or illegal manner while attempting to obtain photographs of them."

Law enforcement officials would not comment on the report, though sources close to Reynolds say that the report was merely a mistake and that he and Lively are not married.

"In honor of Kan Bonfils, Craft Theatre will continue with plans to stage their production of Dante's Inferno, which Mr Bonfils was due to perform in and would have opened on January 8th 2015," reads a statement from the theatre.

"Ryan Prescott, a close friend, will be stepping in to represent Mr Bonfils's work, alongside other company members yet to be confirmed".

Rodriguez added that the company wants "to finish the journey that Kan was on".

The Transformers actress's publicist Leslie Sloane Zelnick confirmed that she is expecting another baby with husband Brian Austin Green.

Zelnick told The New York Post: "I can confirm Megan is expecting her second child with her husband Brian. They are both very happy."

Fox and Green - who married back in 2010 - are already parents to 9-month-old son Noah.

Her pregnancy is in the early stages, and has reportedly not interfered with her work filming the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot.

Megan Fox is reuniting with Transformers director Michael Bay for the project, in which she is playing April O'Neil. It is scheduled for release on May 14, 2014.

Back in January, Fox claimed that being a mother is better than being famous, and provides the "ultimate satisfaction".

Kevin Jonas Opens Up About Jonas Brothers Breakup: 'The Friction Was Too Much'

image
Since The Jonas Brothers called it quits after canceling their fall tour back in 2013, pop sensations Kevin, Joe and Nick are on amicable terms, the eldest brother told HuffPost Live on Tuesday.

The breakup was reportedly the result of a rift among the brothers, who disagreed on their sound and direction. Eventually the tension between the siblings came to a head, and the trio chose to go their separate ways.

“Being able to play shows and travel together was great, but then once at the end there, the friction was too much and we just really needed to break away and kind of do our own things for some time,” Kevin told host Josh Zepps.

Without the dealing with the “constant butting of heads” among band members, the brothers were able to save their relationships outside of the music, Kevin added.

“I think that’s why we’re close now, because we’re not in the band,” he said. “We chose to be a family, not a band.”

Kate Gosselin Is Dating a Millionaire

image

Looks like Kate Gosselin can toss those money problems aside for now.

The 39-year-old controversial reality star and famous mother of eight is currently dating millionaire Jeff Prescott, Us Weekly reports.

Prescott, 51, is COO and co-founder of Dreamstine, a microstock photography agency. He's also a father of three from his previous marriage.

"Jeff and Kate have known each other for over a year," a source tells Us about the new relationship. "They like each other."

"Jeff is a really, really good guy," another source adds. "He is very respectful of Kate and her family."

And do Kate's children approve?

According to the new report, Prescott has yet to meet 14-year-old twins Cara and Madelyn, and 10-year-old sextuplets Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah and Joel, though he did get them Christmas gifts.

Gosselin was of course famously married to ex-husband Jon Gosselin for 10 years before divorcing in 2009. The Jon & Kate Plus 8 stars didn't exactly split on an amicable note.

"I don't have a relationship with Kate. There is no relationship. Text and email. That's it," John told ET last September about his estranged ex-wife, when he explained why he wasn't currently paying any child support for his eight kids. "[Kate and I] both support [the children] financially because she takes care of school and all that stuff, but I take care of the exact same things she takes care of. I buy their own groceries, they have their own groceries at my house, their own bedrooms, their own stuff, it's doubled."

"He lives his own life," Kate also told ET last September about the current status of their relationship. " I'm my kids' sole supporter, and I'm supporting them and concerned about their safety, and he lives his own life."
