Penelope Cruz confirmed she’s pregnant

Spanish actress Penelope Cruz has confirmed she’s pregnant with her first child with husband Javier Bardem. The 36 year-old beauty released a statement through her spokesperson after rumors skyrocketed a few days ago. She was spotted on the beach filming “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” with Johnny Depp, sporting a baby bump under a flowy top. The “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” co-stars married in July of this year in a secret ceremony in the Bahamas.

Penelope Cruz’s Scenes in “Pirates of the Caribbean” had to be ”tweaked” so people would not see her baby bump. The actress is four-and-a-half months pregnant. She previously said she wanted to have her own children and also adopt.

“I’d love to have kids. Maybe I’ll adopt about 20 children – that’s been my dream since I was a little girl. 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,” she said. Then she added: “I think I would be a perfect mother. I love babies.”

Nicole Kidman promotes her new movie Rabbit Hole

Actress and now producer Nicole Kidman sits on the panel at the press conference promoting her new film “Rabbit Hole”, during the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival held at the Hyatt Regency in Toronto, Canada. The movie premiere was sold out and received a standing ovation at the end.

“Rabbit Hole” is a Tony Award-winning play by David Lindsay-Abaire, and examines a couple mourning the loss of a child after a hit-and-run accident. Kidman, who won an Academy Award in 2002 for her portrayal of English novelist Virginia Woolf in “The Hours,” literally sweated through a news conference at the Toronto film festival. She said: “The reason I’m wearing this jacket is because I’m sweating under here and I can’t take it off ’cause this shirt shows it”.

“I feel very exposed, very nervous,” she explained. “It’s a whole different ball game because it’s so personal when you’re in a film but you’re not responsible for the film.

Aaron Eckhart, best known for his role in “The Dark Knight”, co-stars with Kidman in the film directed by Director John Cameron Mitchell.

Jared Leto’s 30 Seconds To Mars wins Best Rock Video

American actor and musician Jared Leto at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards held at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live on Sunday, September 12, in Los Angeles. The 38-year-old artist was accompanied by his “30 Seconds to Mars” bandmates: Tomo Milicevic and Shannon Leto. 30 Seconds to Mars picked up Best Rock Video for “Kings and Queens” Music Video. Jared said: “This award belongs to the most amazing family of friends and fans around the world that we could have ever imagined.”

Directed by Jared Leto, the music video takes place in an abandoned downtown Los Angeles and shows kids riding bicycles. It’s a transfixing clip and certainly deserving to be put on a pedestal with the rest of the rock video elites.

Lady Gaga may have her Little Monsters, but the Echelon (The fans of 30 Seconds To Mars) are as devoted as any hardcore fan group out there, and as Leto said during his acceptance speech, the victory was as much theirs as it was his. Congrats!
