fiancé with a curvy new frame. With the help of a trainer, Nicole
has adopted a new weight training regime that aims to accentuate
her thighs and buttocks.

her diet, says the insider, opting for protein shakes and
steaks. She’s also upping her carb intake with pasta dishes and
lots of vegetables.
“The media always joked that Nic existed on a lettuce leaf a
day, that’s definitely changed. She wants to make Keith happy,
and if her can manage to lay off the booze for her, she can put
on a few pounds for him.”
And what better way to highlight her new curvaceous bod? Sexy
new lingerie of course. According to a source, 38 year old Kidman

his future wife, a Brooks and Dunn cover titled Brand New Man.
The song recounts the tale of a former drug addict's wild days,

sung. "Then I met you, now my heart beats true. Baby you
and me together, feels more like forever.

“Now he has accepted a new outlook along with a new responsibility.
He knows that he wont get away with wayward behavior with Michelle,
and he definitely doesn’t want to lose her.

Britney’s Acting Ambition
After nurturing a singing career since the age of 11 and selling
albums in excess of 60 million, popette Britney Spears is set
to focus on an acting career
With huge buzz created over last week’s announcement that
Brit will guest on a forthcoming episode of TV show Will &
Grace on April 13, playing a Christian conservative, sources
say Mrs Federline aims to develop her acting over the next
year.
According to an insider, Britney has taken inspiration from
former boyfriend Justin Timberlake and hopes to nurture a serious
working option as an actress. “Britney realizes she can’t be a
teen queen forever and she also knows that crossing over
to appeal to an older market as a singer has limited scope.”
“She has spoken to Justin about acting and she’s realized it’s
a logical step,” the source added. “Britney really wants to evolve
as a performer and even cash in on her quirkiness.”
The insider claims Brit has already had several meetings with
her agents who are currently devising a strategy for her serious
reinvention as an actress, scoping out prospective movie and TV
roles.
Meanwhile, says the insider, Britney is in the process of organizing

Eva’s Long Distance Loving
Desperate Housewife Eva Longoria has a novel approach to maintaining
her long distance relationships, adopting regular phone sex as
a way to maintain intimacy with her men.
According to an insider, the sultry 30 year old Latina isn’t all
about looks, with a liberal sexual philosophy also a key part
of her raunchy persona.
Eva explored wild sexual boundaries with all her past men,” the
source claimed. “Tyler Christopher (General Hospital actor) JC
Chasez (NSync member) Mario Lopez (actor) and basketball player
Tony Parker all had long distance relationships with Eva at one
time or another.”
“Eva is a very sexual person. She’s also very broad minded and
has used phone sex with all of her partners as a way to cope with
the tyranny of distance. As all of her men were in the entertainment
business, there were big stretches when they were apart, so they
used phone sex as a way to keep things spicy and maintain their
bond.” The source said.
Meanwhile, underscoring Eva’s brazen sexuality was her recent
public declaration about her use of sex toys. In an interview
last year, she told a UK newspaper “Its important for womenb to
be in touch with their sexuality, and that sex toys are a 21st
century way of doing this.”
In another interview with a womans magazine (Cosmo), Eva also
extolled the virtues of the Brazilian wax,” Every woman should
try a Brazilian because the sex you have afterwards will keep
you coming back for more. The first time I did it after the wax
I was like, 'What's going on with my body? Oh, my God!'

five month old romance.
According to sources, a seven year age difference and contrasting
personalities has seen repeated instances of temper tantrums,

Recent incidents of public squabbling include new years eve,
when the couple erupted into a screaming match while attending

Adler’s discomfort with Mischa’s younger friends.
A December skiing trip to Aspen also took an ugly turn, when
Cisco erupted following Mischa’s apparent interaction with a
mystery man. According to a source, the argument started while
the couple ate a hamburger meal at the Aspen Club.
“Cisco was screaming at her, though the guy had already left,
either due to embarrassment or fear of Cisco’s wild temper. People
were staring and he was really out of control, yelling loudly.”

at Aspen Club Cloud 9, where Mischa and Cisco headed after their
meal. “They took a ride over and everything seemed to have calmed
down, though after a few drinks, things again took a turn for
the worse, Mischa stormed off and he followed.”

Jolie hides the strain of her cancer stricken mother, a pressure
that has weighed heavily on her emotions and on her relationship
to Brad.
According to insiders Marcheline Bertrand’s cancer has effected
Angelina deeply, prompting much soul searching in terms of her
perception of family and her current relationship.
Insiders say Angelina’s biological mother, Marcheline is at the
core of Angelina’s resentment to her father Jon Voight, whose
neglectful parenting and constant womanizing fuelled eventual
estrangement from Angelina.

clear cut reasons to resent him. During the years they were married
1971-78 he had continual affairs, and was seldom at home, all
of this before Angelina was ten years old.”
According to the insider, now that French /Canadian Marcheline
is ill, Angelina is gutted, and is determined to ensure her natural
mom is there to see her create the tight knit family she never
had.
“Angelina is very committed to having a balanced family, and
doesn’t want to repeat the dysfunctional mistakes her parents
made. She wants to be compassionate and devoted, definitely not
another showbiz mom,” the source said.
According to the source, Brad’s strong commitment to family has
seen him sympathetic to Angelina’s vision, “yet he is concerned
she may spread herself too thin emotionally at a time when he
and her kids really need her.”
“Angelina’s idyllic idea of family has put pressure on Brad,
who can see she has a lot of baggage, he’s hoping to be the ballast
she needs to ensure their future family stays on the right track.”
Sources say Marcheline Bertrand is currently is receiving specialist
cancer treatment from Beverly Hills clinic, while convalescing
at her Hollywood Hills home.

and has even led her to problems with others holding and feeding
him.

difficulty with others touching him,” the source said. “Brit has
even had problems with other’s changing his diapers, fearing they
will harm him in some way.”

just minutes from her Malibu mansion to lunch with her cousin
Laura Lyn Covington, sources claim Brit coddled Preston throughout

step at a time. Brad’s adoption last December was definitely a
symbol of their longevity, but they don’t feel the need to undertake
any other gestures just yet.

reservations. “They have both been in marriages before and so
feel that additional ceremony would be too contrived and unnecessary.

see them maintain their mutual career obligations, while nurturing
their family and continuing their philanthropic activities.
They are stars and command much attention, but in reality, for
Brad and Ange right now, its more about intimacy. At present they’re
happy with what they have and don’t feel the need for grand public
gestures of their union,” the source revealed.

family and friends stricken by the hurricane.
Britney has a number of family members based in Kentwood, including
aunts, uncles, cousins and a grandmother, and while all of them
have evacuated the sleepy town to nearby Texas, she is understandably
upset by the disaster.

riveted to the storm coverage. “She is not so much concerned
for her property as she is her family and friends. Louisiana is
her birthplace and she holds it very close to her heart. “

get in touch with her family and friends. Not knowing the extend
to the damage and what she can do about it, the last week has been
a big load, particularly in her condition,” the source added.

Earlier this year on her her official website Britney told fans:
“I think when Kevin and I start a family we might build our
dream home right behind my mom’s. It’s true; home is
where the heart is. For some reason, I can relax so much better

Wildchild Lindsay’s bizarre approach to family bonding might
better be translated as constant partying. Her month long party-thon
started on in early August when she visited a range of Alist hotspots
in the Hamptons, partying until the wee hours before continuing
at rented house until well past dawn the next day.
Hitting LA a week later, Lindsay has since been spotted at a hot
