The Dishing Diva

Actress Julia Roberts says being a housewife fills her with ‘absolute joy’ and she doesn’t mind not having any time for herself.

The 42-year-old is mum to three young kids – twins Hazel and Phinn, five, and three-year-old son Henry.

She told UK newspaper the Daily Mirror: “My life at home gives me absolute joy.

“There are some days when as soon as you’ve finished cooking breakfast and cleaning up the kitchen it’s time to start lunch, and by the time you’ve done that you’re doing dinner and thinking: ‘There has to be a menu we can order from’.

“But then there are some days when it’s just so creative and so much fun and my kids will help me.”

Hollywood actress Catherine Zeta-Jones has said she wants to prove that ‘40-year-olds can do it just as well’ as women in their twenties.

The 40-year-old star said she is playing different roles as she is getting older.

She said: “It’s a natural progression… I’m going to play more mums than sex symbols. A lot of people talk about how hard it is to find good roles for older women but I, frankly, haven’t found that.

“I’ve actually seen an influx of interesting and compelling roles that makes me confident that the over-40 myth in Hollywood is just that.

“I’m out to prove 40-year-olds can do it just as well as 20-somethings ever did. I’m not going out to pasture. I’m going after the juicy roles and I intend to prove older women have just as much strength in Hollywood as young women and men.”

Although she hasn’t spoken about the tragic event since it happened, Jennifer Hudson opened up about the 2008 murders of her mother, brother and nephew on VH1’s ‘Behind the Music’. The R&B singer said “It’s all a blur, it was surreal. It was like I was outside of myself. For almost two weeks straight . . . [I was] inside one room with just family and friends coming in and out. I prayed when I’d get up in the morning and prayed before I laid down at night.” Jennifer said that it was her performance at the 2009 Grammys, singing ‘You Pulled Me Through’, that gave her strength. She explained “I was definitely thinking of my family when I was singing that song. I could hear my brother in my head, like, ‘Jennifer, you need to kill this, you need to get up and do it.’ I knew he would be disappointed if I didn’t do it justice.”

Director Sofia Coppola has become a mum for the second time after welcoming a little girl last month.

The 39-year-old Oscar-winning filmmaker welcomed her second daughter Cosima in New York ‘within the last month’, according to PEOPLE.

She also has an older daughter Romy, three, with her long-term partner Thomas Mars, who is the frontman of French rock band Phoenix.

It was thought Coppola had given birth as she has recently been seen several times pushing a pram around.

The couple have been dating for five years and announced they were expecting again in December.

Cosima must be a popular name at the moment as model Claudia Schiffer recently named her new baby the same.

Killers actress Katherine Heigl has said motherhood has changed the type of movies she wants to make.

The 31-year-old former Grey’s Anatomy star became a mum for the first time last year when she and husband Josh Kelley adopted baby Naleigh, 17 months.

Talking about the type of films she now wants to make, she said to UK newspaper Daily Record: “I’m not going to only do children’s films. But I won’t do anything that’s shocking and horrible in terms of playing someone totally despicable.

“My work now is so about Naleigh, I don’t want to do anything that will take me away from her for too long. The worst part is leaving her to work, but I love to work and I love what I do.”

Model Heidi Klum said she and her children "roll in and out like groupies" when husband Seal is on tour.

The 36-year-old star has four young children with the British singer and said they always join him on tour.

She said to Redbook magazine: "We roll in and we roll out like the groupies. The kids watch him perform every night and we have the best time.

"It also makes them understand better when he is on the road by himself and they ask where he is."

She added: "We try to go on adventures and outings: to the movies, the circus, Disneyland. It’s important for children to see what’s out there and learn that it’s fun to go."

Supermodel Heidi Klum has revealed that she and husband Seal don’t need to resort to dressing up to keep things interesting in the bedroom because they are “nice and spicy in that department”, according to reports

The mum-of-four, 36, told US Cosmopolitan: “I’m not big on costumes in bed, to be honest.

“I wouldn’t say no if he [Seal] wanted to try, but it seems so inorganic.

“Maybe it’ll come later – in five or ten years. I’ll start buying funny outfits. But for now, we’re nice and spicy in that department.”

In fact, Klum admitted that she prefers to see her husband wearing “nothing”.

The couple have been married for nearly five years and have three children together – sons Henry, four, and Johan, three, and six-month-old Lou Sulola.

Klum said that she keeps the romance alive with her 46-year-old husband by making sure they have time alone together.

She said: “I’m like, ‘Let’s go to dinner’. And he’ll say he’s really tired.

“But then, when we’re there and talking, he’s like, ‘I’m really glad you dragged me out.’”

Kris Jenner says she’s surprised her daughter Kourtney Kardashian is so “calm and patient” with baby son Mason.

The baby is the first for Kourtney, 30, and her partner Scott Disick, 26, and the reality star’s mum Kris says she’s amazed at the way she has dealt with becoming a mum since Mason was born 11 weeks ago.

She told PEOPLE: “She’s just a great mom. It’s incredible to see how calm and patient she is.”

Jenner added: “I’m not a calm person. It’s like, where did she get that? It’s not from me.”

Jenner admitted that she is loving her new role as grandma and said: “It’s fabulous and I’m just having the best time. [Mason] is the most delicious baby.”

Former Playboy star Kendra Wilkinson has said she knows she’s a great mum.

The 24-year-old reality star was recently seen crying as she made her way through crowds at the Super Bowl with her then eight-week-old son Hank IV.

A week after the event, Wilkinson hosted a Valentine’s Day party and said to Life & Style: “I know that I’m a great mum – my No.1 priority is my child. We had good intentions.”

Wilkinson added that she had thought twice about taking the baby to the game, where his father Hank Baskett was playing for the Indianapolis Colts.

She said: “I thought: ‘This is probably the only time he’ll go to a Super Bowl, and it’d be so cool to have pictures of him there in his jersey’. I didn’t know I was going to walk half a mile to get to the stadium seats. I was actually really scared because it was the first time out with my son. He slept through everything.”

The singer is none too happy with her father, Mitch Winehouse, for talking about her issues in public. This is what Amy Winehouse allegedly wrote on twitter regarding her father’s comments about her life: “Why don’t my dad write a song when something bothers him instead of going on national tv? And you thought your parents were embarrassing.” Well, Amy Winehouse’s father should apparently check his list of priorities. Rather than talking about his daughter on TV, Mitch Winehouse might want to see about teaching her proper grammar. After all, they are British and they do have values to uphold.
