We used to see photos of Cameron Diaz out and about all the time but since she married Benji Madden we don’t even see her going to the gym. What HAS she been up to? Rumor has it she’s doing some serious research and conducting interviews to find the right surrogate to carry her and Benji’s baby! Cameron wants a family and after careful consideration, has decided this is the best way to achieve her dream.

Hopefully those rumors about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner splitting are not true – and they will turn out to be just headlines made up by tabloids lacking real scoops. Not being photographed together for a few weeks is hardly evidence of imminent divorce. Jennifer continues to be the mother everyone would like to have – above, she walked her rambunctious son Samuel, 3, to school in Brentwood along with her nanny and another mom with her child.

Boy, were we relieved to hear that George Clooney looked at and quickly passed on buying this indulgent palace near Beirut, Lebanon! He’s looking to buy a home for his wife Amal’s family, and this house was just TOO MUCH at 40,000 sq ft and 32 bedrooms, but it has an interesting past. (Star magazine is calling Amal a goldigger because of George’s apparent generosity.) This house is owned by Las Vegas billionaire Ramon DeSage, who lived there with his model exwife Debra DeSage and their 7 children, plus a staff of 100! When Ramon was arrested for tax evasion, Debra and the kids scrammed to Beverly Hills to start a new life. Appropriately, they are being wooed to appear on a reality show with Debra’s new best friend John Luciano.
LOVE this photo of Taylor Swift leading the pack like the Pied Piper in New York. And she just doesn’t LOOK important, she has been named the youngest female ever to be included in Forbes “The World’s Most Powerful Women” list, just released. Besides that honor, Taylor is one of the few women who can wear shorts in the city without looking trashy.

You’ve got to give Melissa McCarthy credit- not only did she crack up costar Jude Law, but she made her OTHER costar Jason Statham laugh – and it’s hard to even make him smile. The happy threesome showed up for the London premier of “Spy” in which they all play CIA agents. Melissa looks exceptionally pretty. Spy is a comedy with good reviews – usually we find Melissa’s movies rather vulgar, but this one looks interesting.

Rita Ora is one of those female performers who manages to look snappy every time she leaves the house. (It must be exhausting at times!) She’s right up there with Taylor Swift, who knows the paparazzi are always outside the front door of her New York building. Rihanna is another one who rarely disappoints in the fashion department. It so happens Rita is loyal to her boyfriend Ricky Hilfiger – she’s wearing a sweater from his father Tommy Hilfiger’s collection. (Above, Rita is leaving a London office building after a meeting.)

Kristen Stewart and her girlfriend Alicia Cargile had a cozy lunch together on Memorial Day, but something here looks weird. It’s that intrusive guy right behind them – too close for comfort. Should we assume he’s an eavesdropping fan or a dressed-down bodyguard? Does Kristen NEED security? She compared paparazzi to “rapists” but hasn’t had any stalkers lately. The guy above remains a mystery, but the Twilight star has been working nonstop and is gearing up to star in Woody Allen’s next film.

Once upon a time, even celebrities served in the armed forces! Probably the most celebrated (besides Clark Gable and Jimmy Stewart) was Elvis Presley. When he got his military haircut it made the front pages! However, Memorial Day is not to be taken lightly – we do appreciate every soldier who helped this country remain free. It’s a good day to watch American Sniper again
Our colleague in gossip, CJ, reporter for the Star Tribune, had an encounter at Comic Con Minnesota with former Hercules Kevin Sorbo. In fact ,we have often wondered what happened to that star of the popular 90’s TV series. Sorbo was a hot commodity at the convention, raking in big bucks – $40 for an autograph and $45 for a photo. But he laments the fact that he is NOT in demand in Hollywood and claims it’s his Christianity that makes him unpopular there. (He does lots of B movies, but not in Hollywood.) Whether it’s atheists or people of other religious persuasions who blackballed him he doesn’t specify – but it’s not cool to be Christian in Hollywood, according to Hercules.

We’re not sure WHAT she did Saturday night, but Rihanna arrived at a Manhattan recording studio looking like THIS at 4 AM Sunday morning. And she appeared to be ready to get some work done. We love her “devil horns” hair style – it looks naughty and goes well with the fiery red color…
