Jennifer Lopez: Promoting in Spain
Jennifer Lopez: Promoting in Spain
Her husband Marc Anthony has been wowing audiences on his tour around Spain. And Jennifer Lopez has been making the most of her time on the road by doing a little promoting.
The “Waiting for Tonight” songstress was spotted out in Barcelona yesterday, launching her new swim suit and lingerie line for Italian brand Yamamay.
Dressed in a very sexy black cleavage-baring black ensemble, complete with medallion necklace, the mommy-of-two waved graciously to the crowd of fans and paparazzi as she exited her car.
Back home in the States, Lopez is being sued by a flight attendant to the tune of $5 million over an alleged dog attack. Lisa Wilson is claiming Jennifer’s German Shepherd attacked her, causing injuries that prevented her from being able to work.
Heidi Klum: NYC Mommy
Heidi Klum: NYC Mommy
We’re used to seeing her on the sun kissed West Coast, but yesterday Heidi Klum was spotted making her way around the Big Apple. And she had plenty of company.
The German supermodel was happy to push her son around in a stroller as she, along with her mother and nanny, did a little sightseeing and shopping in the West Village.
Midway through their day, the Klum crew stopped into a local Starbucks for a caffeine boost before Heidi parted ways with her family to head over to the Project Runway set.
She looked cute and casual in a black floral printed t-shirt underneath a thin green cardigan sweater with a pair of denim cutoffs and some strappy sandals.
Nickelodeon: Mad About Jamie Lynn’s Maddie
One kid-friendly cable net just got a little kid-friendlier.
“We wish her and her family well,” a rep for Nickelodeon tells News about this morning’s birth of former network star Jamie Lynn Spears’ daughter, Maddie Briann.
Spears’ former Zoey 101 crew also wasted no time in sending best baby wishes to the 17-year-old new mom.
“I wish her the best,” onetime costar Erin Sanders tells News. “I know she’s going to be a great mom. She’s always been really great with kids, from what I’ve observed. Jamie Lynn is a wonderful girl. I’m really excited for her. I know she’s going to have a wonderful time.”
Faced with a pregnant star and the resulting P.R. crisis, Nickelodeon pulled the plug on Zoey’s four-season run in May, despite big ratings.
Spears, accompanied by fiancé Casey Aldridge and several family members, including sister Britney, gave birth at the Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center around 9:30 a.m. The new mommy will be taking some maternity leave before heading back to work.
Sanders agrees that some mother-daughter bonding time is definitely in the cards.
“I think she knows the importance of having a new child and being around. She’ll be able to weigh out what will be right. I think she will [return to TV], the question is just when.”

Katie Couric has her own YouTube channel - VIDEO
Lately, the only Katie Couric most people have been seeing is the one that’s depicted in the picture to the right: serious, sober, possessing whatever gravitas she can muster in her role as anchor of the CBS Evening News. But where can you see the goofy Katie, the one that people came to know — and some got sick of — for fifteen years on the Today show?
Why, on YouTube, of course! In fact, Katie has her very own page on the leading video sharing site, where she posts extended Evening News interviews and behind-the-scene footage. The behind-the-scenes stuff is where you see Katie at her most impish, doing things like snapping Larry King’s suspenders as he leads her to the set of his show, singing with Bette Midler, and meeting with mommy bloggers in her office (check out the huge Warhol-esque portrait of herself she has hanging near her desk!).
The LA Times explains that Couric started filming and posting the videos in response to the clips of her that Harry Shearer posted on his My Damn Channel website; she even says “Harry Shearer, I’m gonna get you” on her introductory video.
The videos aren’t bad, though it’s alarming how big of a “posse” Katie drags around with her everywhere. But at least she shows some warmth, as the video below shows. Before and after she was on Larry King Live, she chats up some paparazzi on the way in and a family on the way out, all the time plugging the YouTube channel. So, even if she’s playing it up for her YT camera, it still shows a side of her we haven’t seen in almost two years.
