Isn’t he still married?? Ashton Kutcher Says He Hopes To Be Married With A Child In 5 Years Despite the fact that he’s still in the middle of a messy divorce that has barely even begun yet, former Demi Moore Hollyweird boy toy Ashton Kutcher is already planning for the future that doesn’t include his bitter and betrayed ex-wifey. via Celebrity Cafe Tabloid fixtures Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis were spotted in Rome on Friday night, holding hands and leaving Checchino in the Trastevere quarter, where they enjoyed a romantic, intimate evening together. According to the New York Daily News, the couple is hitting up the ancient location because Kunis is filming her latest flick, The Third Person. Kunis and Kutcher have been dating for over five months now, following the Two and Half Men star’s split from Demi Moore, 50. Kunis told Glamour magazine in August, “In five years, I do hope to have a family. I’d rather be in love and have a baby than a movie.” Word on the street is that Ashton is stalling on moving forward with the divorce proceedings because he doesn’t want to break Demi off with that good ol’ gwap since he was the one who cheated. Mila must not mind being in the middle of it all…
Yesterday, People anointed Channing Tatum Sexiest Man Alive . Without a doubt, 2012 was Tatum’s year, with three successful movies in The Vow, Magic Mike , and 21 Jump Street . But People has its share of critics just the same. The main complaint? With a singular exception – Denzel Washington in 1996 – the magazine has picked a square-jawed white guy (usually an actor) EVERY year. In 2008, Hugh Jackman took the top honor. In 2009, Johnny Depp was selected for a second time. Last year, Bradley Cooper walked away with the crown. The year before that, it was Ryan Reynolds, perhaps in anticipation of his film Green Lantern . Should they rename it Sexiest Milquetoast White Man Alive? Asks the Daily Beast: Where are the Blair Underwoods, the Taye Diggses, the Morris Chestnuts? The Terrence Howards, the Jesse Williamses, the Idris Elbas? Inside. And if you believe People ’s official line, it is what’s inside that counts. A representative for the magazine wrote: “ People is sensitive to representing people of color in its pages; our Sexiest Man Alive issue is no exception. Every section in this year’s issue includes a diverse group of men.” Brett R. Johnson, associate editor of The Root, said, “That response is expected … They can’t come out and say black men don’t sell magazine covers.” Though there are some sports celebrities, most of the picks skew toward Hollywood, and actors rather than musicians. Perhaps that’s part of the issue. Jay-Z, Kanye West, Kobe Bryant, or Michael Jordan during their primes would’ve been fine cover stars, no? A rep for People explained of the criteria: “Is he hot at the moment? Is he sexy? Is his career on fire this year? Channing Tatum fits that criteria this year, which is why he was named 2012 Sexiest Man Alive.” The list, then, said Jezebel ‘s Jessica Coen, isn’t truthfully the “sexiest man in general, just – ‘handsome man who’s getting the most work right now,’ “And what makes that so strange is that People is not a trade mag.” “People’s response places the blame on Hollywood. That’s a copout. They have a lot of power as a media outlet, but their response is akin to throwing up their hands.” “Hollywood and the media – and that includes People – have a highly symbiotic relationship.” “Putting a man of color on the inside is like saying, ‘He’s hot, sure, but just not hot enough for the cover. Only a white man can be number one.’” “Which is kind of how the world has worked for the past couple centuries.” What do you think?

Harry Styles covers the latest issue of OK! in Great Britain, opening up to the tabloid about something rather personal: His first time having sexual intercourse. How did it go? “I was scared I got the girl pregnant,” Styles tells the magazine. “And that was despite the fact we were safe. Luckily, we were fine.” In light of the incident, and just based on common sense, Harry also used this platform to send his fans a message. A very important one: “I would never risk not wearing a condom, it’s too much of a risk. If you’re not ready for a child, then don’t risk it.” Take notes, kids. And also remember: Styles is NOT dating fellow One Direction member Louis Tomlinson.

How does Taylor Lautner feel about the cheating scandal that has surrounded co-stars Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson ? The actor doesn’t directly say in the latest issue of Cosmopolitan . But he basically does. Asked about infidelity and how he’d respond if a girlfriend ever cheated – we wonder from where the magazine got that question – Lautner responds: “To be honest, I’ve never been involved in any of those situations… [an answer] would be just a guess and a shot in the dark, and I don’t want to give that if I haven’t even been there myself.” Fair enough. But how does Taylor view Stewart? Any differently after her affair with Rupert Sanders was exposed? “Kristen is fantastic at everything she does,” the man behind Jacob Black says. “I’m always proud of her.” By all accounts, Stewart and Pattinson are an item again – and Lautner concludes that he absolutely see how they are making it work. “It depends on how long you were with that person. If it was a long, serious relationship, I think it’s quite easy to rekindle. I guess it depends on what damage has been done. There’s no ex out there who I’m not friends with today, and I’m extremely thankful for that.”
Gabriella Toth is a nude model who you won’t find much on if you google her…and she is modeling nude in a magazine called fART that I am posting because I like naked girls….especially when they are combined with something called fART cuz I find fART funny…especially when it stands for Fashion & Art….when they probably should re-worked their name into something I little less frat boy….but maybe that’s the “irony” of the whole thing…you see cuz fashion people are obnoxious cunts like that….and Gabriella Toth is hiding her cunt in their magazine…and that is really what matters.
Life may seem like fun and games for Khloe Kardashian these days. It may appear as if she’s happy and carefree, Tweeting nipple slips of her mother like all is well and good at home. But it’s not. Not by a long shot. Not if recent tabloid stories are to be believed. Star Magazine makes it clear: Khloe and Lamar Odom are about to divorce. And the latest issue of Life & Style brings the troubled relationship into focus, detailing how Kardashian’s problems with conception are creating a major riff between wife and husband. “Khloé is still undergoing fertility treatments,” a friend tells the tabloid. “And she has decided that if she is not pregnant by Christmas, she will start adoption proceedings.” So wherein lies the problem? Odom has allegedly soured on having more children, an insider claims: “Lamar’s over it. He has kids already from a previous relationship, so he’s not dying to have more.” As a result, “there have been big fights and arguments lately,” adds this source. Will it actually lead to a split? We doubt it. What about more misleading cover stories and headlines? For sure.
Male students at a California high school recently began a “Fantasy Slut League” in which they “drafted” female students and earned points for … well, you can figure that out. The sex game was exposed and brought to the attention of officials at the highly-regarded Piedmont High School, who launched an investigation earlier this month. In a letter to parents, Principal Rich Kitchens described a ritual “in which our female students (unbeknownst to most of them) are drafted as part of the league.” Male students then “earn points for documented engagement in sexual activities with them.” Many teenagers, both male and female, knew about the league – which is not in its first season – and participated willingly or because of peer pressures, he wrote. Kitchens went on to write: “Students expressed concern that the fallout could result in discipline and affect their college applications, suggesting there is something wrong with a ‘Fantasy Slut League.'” Ya think? The high school is now planning assemblies and hopes the letter will create a discussion, assistant superintendent Randall Booker was quoted as saying. No word on who’s the #1 seed heading into the playoffs later this fall.
