-These new photos are refuelling those rumours that Jessica Biel is expecting. It might just be an unflattering outfit though. She didn’t look obviously pregnant a few days ago.

-Meanwhile, Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake say they’re “satisfied” after a tabloid apologized for claiming JT was flirting with another woman in Paris.

Kristen Stewart is going to stop making movies for a while so she can “make art with her hands” in downtown L.A. Ok, then.

-Whoa. Keanu Reeves saw a ghost.

Brad Pitt’s Between Two Ferns episode gets good near the end, especially once Zach starts making the Aniston digs. Also golden: “Is it hard for you to maintain a suntan? Because you live in your wife’s shadow?”

Amy Sedaris tries Tinder in this new webisode and it’s as wonderful as you’d expect.

Bill Murray also talked about Tinder on Kimmel.

-I don’t usually watch reality TV but I got kind of sucked into Masterchef Junior last year (there’s just something really great about seeing 9-year-olds talk about sous vide). Here’s the trailer for the new season.

Shailene Woodley claims she’s a foodie. I’m not buying it.

-Feast your eyeballs on Martha Stewart‘s advice for throwing a “punk rock party.”

-Netflix just put out a trailer for their new show starring Kyle Chandler, Linda Cardellini and Sam Shepard. I thought I was over TV shows about good people “doing bad things,” but then I heard Coach Taylor’s voiceover and all was lost.

-Dramaz! Teen Wolf star Tyler Posey has split from his fiancee/longterm girlfriend.

Felicia Day is the human equivalent of a rainbow, so her getting doxxed just for posting this blog entry is the absolute worst.

Cobie Smulders and Taran Killam (aka – those famous people you keep forgetting are a couple) are expecting their second child.

-The latest Mockingjay: Part 1 teaser sees Katniss choosing to stand by Peeta.

-Gird your ovaries: Andrew Garfield, Joshua Jackson, and Taylor Kitsch hung out together last night.

Kat Dennings revealed her “very dark and tortured” goth past on last night’s Conan.

-Is Fifty Shades of Grey doing reshoots because of a lack of chemistry between Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson? How do you not have chemistry with this?!

-I love almost every show Greg Berlanti has made, but I’m not sure about the sounds of this Archie adaptation.

Jessica Chastain just bought her mom a food truck, ruining it for all daughters everywhere.

Beyonce and Jay Z reportedly renewed their vows. I won’t believe it until I see it on her Instagram feed.

-This first trailer for Beyond the Lights has totally won me over. Audiences loved it at TIFF. I hope this movie makes Gugu Mbatha-Raw the huge star she deserves to be.

-Speaking of movies I’m excited for, here’s our first look at Meryl Streep singing in Into the Woods.

-The Avengers: Age of Ultron trailer was supposed to premiere during next week’s Agents of SHIELD (which could have really used the ratings bump), but Marvel ended up releasing it early after it leaked online. (They also got cheeky on Twitter following the leak.) I know everyone’s super excited about it but this thing looks like it was cut together by a hummingbird with ADHD. I’ll give them points for the surprisingly sinister Pinocchio cover, though.

Tina Fey Covers Elle, Gives Modelling Tips

Tina Fey Elle cover

-Look at Tina Fey working that Elle cover like the OG boss that she is. Love it!

-At Elle’s Women in Hollywood event, Tina had some nice things to say about late comedy legend Jan Hooks. “Jan deserved a big movie career. Certainly as big as Rob Schneider’s f**king career.”

-Also at that event, Jennifer Garner gave an impassioned speech on sexism. I especially liked the part where she talks about how she gets asked about work-life balance on every red carpet, and when she asked Ben Affleck about it, he said he’s never gotten that question in his life.

Renée Zellweger says she’s glad you all noticed that she looks different. So there.

Neil Patrick Harris wasn’t the Academy’s first choice to host the Oscars. First they asked Ellen Degeneres, Chris Rock, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus(!!).

-Is Jennifer Lopez the latest star to land a residency in Vegas?

-iTunes Canada accidentally released less than 10 seconds of static, labelled it a new Taylor Swift song, and it immediately skyrocketed to number one in the charts. Sigh.

-Speaking of Taylor, in her new Esquire interview she drops this terrifying truth nugget: “We have a file [of men] who have showed up at my house, showed up at my mom’s house, threatened to either kill me, kidnap me, or marry me.”

Sarah Jessica Parker penned a lovely tribute to Oscar de la Renta.

-I loved this oral history of the yellow daisy scene from the first season of Gilmore Girls.

This Tweedy video was directed by Nick Offerman? Huh.

Aziz Ansari appeared on Sesame Street and things got ridiculous.

-The fake celebrity profiles on The Hairpin never fail to make me smile, but this one might be the best yet.

-Here’s what Johnny Depp‘s Big Bad Wolf looks like in Into the Woods. This is the first Depp movie I’ve been excited about in eons. (Mostly in spite of him rather than because of him, but still!)

-Even Jim Carrey’s SNL promos exhaust me. Even Aidy Bryant can’t save them.

-I’m very confused by Anne Hathaway‘s entire red carpet look here.

Chris Evans may have reunited with Minka Kelly, destroying our dreams of a Sandra Bullock hookup.

-Here’s the first teaser trailer for Mark Wahlberg‘s The Gambler. The supporting cast looks strong: Brie Larson, Jessica Lange, Michael K Williams.

Matthew McConaughey Talks True Detective, Rom Coms

Matthew McConaughey GQ

Matthew McConaughey told GQ that he totally understood everything Rust Cohle was saying in True Detective (sure, he did) and also defends his rom-com roles. I like that. I mean, I still don’t really get why we spent all last year celebrating the reconnaissance of a guy who made shitty career decisions for decades instead of someone who’s been consistently good, but at least he’s not hiding from his past.

Diane Kruger looks stunning (as per yoosh) on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar Australia, in which she talks about aging gracefully and why she thinks fashion should be fun.

-In other DKrug news, her show The Bridge just got cancelled. I really hope Netflix or someone picks it up, because it really found its feet this season.

-All of the hatred towards Renee Zellweger’s face on Twitter today really bummed me out. Yes, she looks totally different then she used to. But remember A) there’s a long and sad history of mocking her face, and B) she may look different now, but she also looks really, really good. This is a great take on the whole kerfuffle.

-Even though Allison Janney was in the ending of Lost, she too was confused by it.

-Some ridiculous mom wants Breaking Bad toys off shelves because she thinks it’ll led to kids trying meth or something stupid. Bryan Cranston’s response to it was priceless.

-I’m already exhausted by Blake Lively’s belly bump parade, and there’s still months and months to go.

David Arquette appeared to break up with his fiancée Christina McLarty in the middle of a street.

Shia LaBeouf admits a LOT in this new interview—including that he used to follow Alec Baldwin home and that he choked a director while on acid.

-Meanwhile, Alan Cumming was a total delight when he recounted Shia’s Cabaret meltdown on Conan.

-Also, working out next to Shia is really uncomfortable, apparently.

Anna Wintour‘s tribute to Oscar de la Renta is lovely.  “His last words to me were I love you, and I said I love you back.”

Shonda Rhimes’ response to Twitter criticism of the gay sex scenes on her shows is everything.

-The owners of Carrie Bradshaw’s brownstone were unimpressed by Sarah Jessica Parker using their stoop for an unauthorized photoshoot.

Penn Badgley will play Mary-Louise Parker‘s boyfriend in an NBC miniseries that I want in my eyeballs right now!

-I really liked these articles on why we’re a month into the fall TV season and nothing has been cancelled yet. Basically, no one knows what qualifies as a hit anymore, and the midseason shows are even worse.

Bradley Cooper and Jimmy Fallon couldn’t stop giggling during his interview last night, and it was kind of adorable. I wish they’d release more uncut interviews like this. Makes you realize how much editing is in these “off the cuff” talks.

-Uh oh. Selena Gomez has been spotted with Orlando Bloom again.

-I am going to watch the crap out of Death Comes to Pemberley. I liked the book, and that was BEFORE I envisioned Matthew Rhys as Darcy.  Matthew Goode as Wickham is just icing on the hottie cake.

-Yesterday, we had Taylor Swift being funny for Stand Up to Cancer, and now it’s Britney Spears’ turn.
