Dude to dad

Matthew McConaughey is getting all warmed up to become a father this summer. Often spotted doing crazy stuff like dancing at a bar, running on the beach or sporting a funky bandana, he’s sure going to make for one interesting daddy. His Fool’s Gold co-star Kate Hudson was heard vouching for him too and said that he would be “one responsible and absolute blast of a dad!” Well, with that kind of support from friends and family, guess half the battle is already won. Good luck Surfer Dude!! ‘Hot’ chocolate

Ali Larter was seen helping to unveil the Godiva Decadence Suite, a hotel room decorated with chocolate from top to bottom at the Bryant Park Hotel in New York City. This Heroes hottie looked great in her brand new hair-do and was very honest about the Godive chocolate pearls being “a perfect bit of sin” for her. Well, we wish this new face of the Belgium-based chocolatier a sweet and chocolaty year ahead! A different beat

Guess now who is talking about taking up films that are original and challenging? Well it’s Bollywood's item girl Yana Gupta. This one-song wonder and fashion magazine’s favourite cover girl apparently has no projects in her kitty right now and with such high expectations from the Bollywood film makers, we’re sure we won’t get to see her for some more time! Still, do look out for her forthcoming book on nutrition and also her pop album for which she’s written, composed and sung all the numbers. Smokin’ matters

Actor and smoker Shah Rukh Khan has turned down health minister Anbumani Ramadoss’ request that he quit smoking cigarettes, at least on screen. While the health minister thinks that such bad habits endorsed by celebrities like the King Khan have a huge influence on youngsters, Shah Rukh, who's been trying to kick the butt since more than two years, begs to differ. He believes that this would restrict his creative freedom and it should not become such a huge censorship issue. Well the argument continues and so does the rise in deaths caused by smoking-related diseases. Stretching the story

No good deed goes unpunished. So here is Ms Malaika Arora Khan, according to rumours in the industry, punishing her producers for allegedly doing a neat cover up job with the promos for Welcome, where the glamour babe's mile long stretch marks left the men in the audience dejected and the women smirking. No one’s holding the stretch marks against the usually sizzling mother of one, but did she really have to do such a poor job with the make up and torture the audience with those unsightly gashes? So, delectable diva you may be, but next time, do touch up before you show up, gal. Religion vs fame

A fatwa was issued against Salman Khan for allowing his life-like image to be placed at the Madame Tussauds wax museum. Now according to Muslim law and religion, the depiction of living creatures is illegal and as per rule a fatwa, i.e. an Islamic ruling, is issued against anyone who doesn’t abide by the law. Though surprised by the reaction, nothing could stop Salman from going ahead and unveiling his statue at London… Trust Salman Khan to never dissapoint! A brake on break-up rumours

Major Movie star Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo were spotted enjoying a romantic date at the West Hollywood Italian restaurant sometime back and that too days after strongly refuting their alleged break up. The couple seemed to be incredibly comfortable in each other’s company and were having a great time exchanging sweet nothings. The question is, where then did the news about their break-up arise from?
