The debate on whether it’s okay for pregnant women always arises and recently Kate Hudson was spotted sipping on a drink during her pregnancy, because of this Babble have come up with a list of 10 celebrities who have either been caught or admitted to drinking while pregnant.

Alex Mccord
This Real Housewives of New York reality star wrote in her book, Little Kids, Big City, “Throughout my pregnancy, I gave into every craving I felt. When I wanted to have a drink, I did.” She even sipped on champagne while her husband drove her to the hospital to have her son Francois.

Belinda Carlisle
In her memoir, Lips Unsealed, this pop/punk princess gave the shocking confession that she drank daily in 1992 while pregnant with her son, James Duke Mason.

Britney Spears
Brit reportedly downed amaretto sours, champagne, and a cosmopolitan at K-Fed’s birthday party in 2006, and a month later announced she was five-months pregnant with her second child. Cringe.

Jamie Lynn Spears
Jamie Lynn followed in her big sister’s footsteps, reportedly partying, drinking, and smoking throughout the first trimester of her teenage pregnancy. Luckily, Jamie Lynn cleaned up her act and seems to have a healthy little girl, but this story could have easily had a not-so-happy ending.

Kate Hudson
Kate took a classier approach to drinking while pregnant — sipping on a glass of wine while out to dinner in Buenos Aires with boyfriend Matt Bellamy, but the public outcry was similar to as if she had been doing shots at the bar. Was Kate in the wrong?

Gwyneth Paltrow
Guinness does a baby good? Gwyneth seemed to think so during her pregnancy in 2006. She was seen downing a cold one while out with hubby Chris Martin in 2006. Some defended her choice of drink with the myth that Guinness’s “high” iron content helps pregnant women.

Nicole Kidman
According to Cindy Adams of the NY Post, Nicole requested a glass of white wine — which she received and drank — backstage at the 2008 Oscars. Nicole’s rep later claimed she drank nothing that night but water and ginger tea. Was Nicole the victim of the celebrity rumor mill or was her rep covering up a decision to drink in moderation while pregnant?

Brooke Mueller
Nothing screams “celebrity train-wreck” like a pregnant woman checking into rehab, which Brooke did while five-months pregnant with her and Charlie Sheen’s twins. Hey, better late than never, right?

Rachel Weisz
This Oscar-winning actress caused an uproar soon after giving birth to her first child in 2006 after she told fans it’s “fine” for expectant mothers to have a glass of wine after the first trimester.

Kerry Katona
After an early miscarriage scare during her fourth pregnancy in 2007, this former Atomic Kitten singer was photographed smoking a cigarette outside a pub. It was reported that she had also drank four martinis and vodka, which Kerry called “nonsense” — and then she admitted to having a drink or two.

Celebrity gossip, news and paparazzi photos linked with Afternoon Insights: Candice Swanepoel Nude at the CFDA Awards « INF Daily
Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz were spotted together over the holiday weekend — and they were getting pretty darn cozy. People reports the pair were spotted in the countryside of Dorset in southwestern England.
News of the romance comes only one month after Weisz announced her split from director Darren Aronofsky after nine years together. They have a 4-year-old son, Henry.
Craig is rumored to have recently ended a long-term relationship with movie producer Satsuki Mitchell, though he’s never confirmed the split.
Photos of the couple walking hand-in-hand were first published in Britain’s News of the World and featured a story titled “For Your Weisz Only.” It was reported that after taking a walk together, Craig and Weisz stopped by an Edwardian pub, where they spent the afternoon.
The co-stars — both appear in the upcoming movie ‘Dream House’ — also reportedly stayed in a little cottage hideaway together.
They “looked like a romantic couple in a film,” News of the World quoted an onlooker as saying. “They were laughing and chatting and hanging on to each other’s words and stopping to take photos of each other.”
A pub customer also told the paper, “They were clinging to each other like honeymooners. The chemistry was obvious.”

Yet another celebrity couple bites the dust if TMZ are to be believed because they report that Rachel Weisz and her fiancé, Darren Aronofsky, have called it quits.
Like with most Hollywood break-ups it seems that there is a third person involved and it’s apparently none other than Daniel Craig, with who Rachel worked with on their upcoming movie Dream House. A rep for the couple confirmed the split saying…
“Rachel Weisz and Darren Aronofsky have been separated for some months. They remain close friends and are committed to raising their son together in NYC.”
No word on whether or not it’s true that Rachel has been doing the dirty with Mr. James Bond hiimself, but he is in a relationship with girlfriend Satsuki Mitchell.
Damn, I’ve lost count of how many Hollywood couples have split up this year.

A lot of celebrities are asked to take all their clothes off, of course they have no problem doing it if they are guaranteed to be on the cover of the magazine. MTV have come up with a list of their all time favorite nude magazine covers. Take a look for yourself and see if you agree.

Lindsay Lohan, New York
In their “Spring Fashion” issue in 2008, Lindsay Lohan stripped down to her birthday suit and re-enacted a classic Marilyn Monroe photo shoot with only a few sheer scarves to keep herself warm.

Jennifer Aniston, Rolling Stone
Rolling Stone has a history of nude and nearly-nude cover subjects (including John Lennon, Christina Aguilera, Brooke Shields and Britney Spears), but the one that really shook the planet was Aniston’s. She appeared completely stripped on the cover of the magazine during the height of “Friends”-mania and with her rear end completely exposed for the universe to gawk at.

Demi Moore, Vanity Fair
Demi Moore might just be the godmother of stars who strip for magazine covers (especially Vanity Fair), but her first nude cover was her most eye-catching. Coming off the success of “Ghost,” Moore appeared completely nude on the cover of Vanity Fair save for one key accessory: her very pregnant belly.

Tom Cruise & Nicole Kidman, Time
Who knows if Hollywood’s hottest couple (at the time, at least) were dressed from the waist down, but they certainly suggested total nakedness when they appeared together on the cover of Time to promote “Eyes Wide Shut.”

Rachel Weisz, Esquire
Not only did the Oscar-winning star of “The Constant Gardner” take off her clothes for her cover of Esquire, but she also allowed herself to be covered only by a giant snake.

Britney Spears, Harper’s Bazaar
Spears has appeared scantily-clad on just about every magazine cover she has ever done, but for the cover of Harper’s Bazaar, she took a cue from Moore and allowed herself to be photographed both naked and pregnant.

Serena Williams, ESPN The Magazine
For their annual “Body Issue,” ESPN The Magazine recruited a number of professional athletes to wear little more than skin. Orlando Magic center Dwight Howard, MMA fighter Gina Carano and Minnesota Vikings running back Adrien Peterson all participated, but the true headliner was superstar tennis sensation Serena Williams.

Beth Ditto, NME
In one of the boldest naked-on-the-cover initiatives in history, the British music weekly NME featured the Gossip lead singer Beth Ditto, a plus-sized performer who has helped to make it safe for big girls everywhere.
Thoughts? Any infamous covers that you think are missing?

The hot spec script Jackie, about the immediate days following President Kennedy’s assassination, is getting the big screen treatment with Academy-Award winning actress Rachel Weisz attached to play the late first lady.
Weisz’s fiancee, director Darren Aronofsky (The Wrestler), will direct and produce, along with his producing partner Scott Franklin and their Protozoa Pictures film company. The script had been rumored as a Steven Spielberg-produced telefilm for HBO, but Spielberg is not involved in any way, though his agency, CAA, has put together the package that they are now shopping to the major studios.
CAA declined to confirm, but the script, from Noah Oppenheim, head of development at television production company Reveille, has been a hot commodity at the agency since it came in last month. Jackie, written over period of nights and weekends by Oppenheim, catalogs the four days between JFK’s assassination and his burial, showing the beloved Jackie at both her most vulnerable and her most graceful. Oppenheim heads Reveille’s unscripted department and previously served as the senior producer on The Today Show, running the 7 a.m. hour.
It will be interesting to see how the British-born Weisz will take on the iconic role. I’m certain she’ll be amazing.

There has been rumors going around about who will play the next bond-girl in the upcoming James Bond movie, Bond 23, but the latest casting rumor is Rachel Weisz.

Weisz has joked in the past about playing a bond-girl but the producers apparently know that she is too good an actress to just play a bond-girl so they are thinking of making her the head of the evil organization Quantum, which has been going on for the past two movies.
The last woman to play a villain in a Bond movie was Elektra King, played by Sophie Marceau, in The World is Not Enough but that was 11 years ago so it’s about time they had a hot woman play some evil character in my opinion.
What’s working in Weisz’s favor is that she is friends with Sam Mendes, who is set to direct Bond 23, and she is also friends with James Bond himself Daniel Craig. As for when the movie is going to go ahead, it is still unknown because MGM has yet to be sold off and all of their projects are pretty much on hold at the moment.
Do you think Rachel Weisz would be a good choice to star in the next James Bond movie?

Rachel Stevens and David Schwimmer are the hottest Jewish woman and man, respectively, according to a recent survey. TMZ:
PEOPLE has its beautiful people and Maxim has its Hot 100. And now UK dating service SomeoneJewish.com has a list of the hottest Jewish celebrities.
The news from the web site’s survey is A LOT better for men than it is for women. On the list of 10 Jews whom other Jews would like to date, British pop star Rachel Stevens tops the female list, followed by Caprice from VH1′s ‘The Surreal Life’ and Oscar-winner Rachel Weisz. The male ranking is a much more mixed bag. ‘Friends’ star David Schimmer tops that list, followed by … Woody Allen. ‘Ali G’ star Sacha Baron Cohen comes in third.
SomeoneJewish, whose tag line is “It’s easy to make simchas happen and your mother happy,” interviewed 200 men and women on the streets of popular Jewish neighborhoods in London.
Not exactly a scientific study. But, surely, there are some hotter Jews than this?
Hottest Jewish Women
* Rachel Stevens
* Caprice Bourret
* Rachel Weisz
* Gwyneth Paltrow
* Lisa Loeb
Hottest Jewish Men
* David Schwimmer
* Woody Allen
* Sacha Baron Cohen
* Anthony Costa
* Jeff Goldblum
I’ve never even heard of Caprice Bourret. And there’s not a more desirable Jewish man on the planet than David Friggin’ Schwimmer? With Woody Allen nipping at his heels?!
Oy veh.

Steve Ryfle wonders whether being pictured nude in magazines can help an actress’ career.
There’s nothing like a little exposed skin to boost a starlet’s public profile. Plaster a titillating image of her nude frame on the cover a glossy monthly, and she’s instantly grabbed the attention of millions. When 20-year-old Scottish diva Keira Knightley and 21-year-old Scarlett Johansson stripped and strategically struck PG-13 poses for the cover of the March issue of Vanity Fair, the press types deemed it a risky and risqu? move (one British tab called the pic “shocking and provocative”). But it’s nothing new: from Marilyn to Madonna and beyond, lots of actresses have flashed a little flesh in mainstream mags as a way of upping their, ahem, visibility.
If you’ve been perusing the newsracks in recent years, you may have noticed Rachel Weisz, she of the “Mummy” movies fame, clad only in a boa constrictor for the April 2004 cover of Esquire. You may have been nonplussed by the sight of a topless Paris Hilton (covering her assets, of course) on the October 2005 cover of Vanity Fair. Sharon Stone graced the cover of December 1999′s Esquire in the buff, while in 2003, Britney Spears went pantless for Esquire and topless for Elle. And if you got past the cover of the Knightley-Johansson issue of Vanity Fair, you’d have found a photo inside of Angelina Jolie, reclining nude in a bath tub. In May 2003, all three Dixie Chicks dropped their drawers for the front of Entertainment Weekly.
Yes, it’s legal eye candy for adolescent boys of all ages, but other than a momentary blip on the tabloid radar, do stars reap any long-term benefit by baring it all?
“Keira Knightley and Scarlett Johansson can only benefit from their recent unclothed appearance on the cover of Vanity Fair,” says Mr. Skin, otherwise known as James McBride, a movie nudity expert who runs MrSkin.com and author of “Mr. Skin’s Skincyclopedia.” “After all, here we are talking about them. Both Keira and Scarlett, although they’re young, are established Hollywood stars and this blast of bare flesh is going to propel them upward into the next echelon of fame. That cover is being, well, covered all over the world, and it will be collected, fussed over and looked back on fondly for decades to come. As to which woman will benefit more, well Scarlett actually shows more skin in the photo.”
   
In another column, Ryfle considers the issue of celebrities getting naked for the silver screen.
In this day and age, few celebrities are shy about baring it all onscreen. So when bashful Natalie Portman asked director Mike Nichols to cut her nude scenes from the upcoming flick “Closer,” it was newsworthy. Portman — for now, at least — is that rare star who chooses to keep herself under wraps, while much of Hollywood, male and female, is dropping its drawers.
Almost every actress currently on the A-list has done a nude scene or two. Some of them did it a few years before becoming mega-famous, like Reese Witherspoon (“Twilight”) and Catherine Zeta-Jones (“The Mask of Zorro”). A few actresses used an attention-grabbing nude scene to help catapult their careers — witness Halle Berry (“Monster’s Ball”) and Kate Winslet (“Titanic”) — while others have continued taking it all off long after their star status was cemented, like Angelina Jolie (“Taking Lives”) and Nicole Kidman (“Cold Mountain,” among others). And then there was Meg Ryan, trying to rekindle her career by letting it all hang out (“In The Cut”).
“Halle Berry proved that one could garner high accolades while getting down and dirty with her naked sex scenes in ‘Monster’s Ball’,” says Mr. Skin, otherwise known as James McBride, a movie nudity expert who runs MrSkin.com and author of an upcoming book, “Mr. Skin’s Skincyclopedia.”
[...]
What are the benchmarks by which all nude scenes are measured? McBride says the first on-camera nudity by a major celebrity occurs in the “Ecstasy” (1932), in which Hedy Lamarr skinny-dips “and her chest is clearly visible,” he says. Another historic scene, he says, is the wet-dream sequence in “Fast Times at Ridgemont High,” when Phoebe Cates takes off her bikini top. “In my skin-pinion, all previous celebrity nude scenes led to that moment and its greatness looms permanently over all that have come since.”
Some photos from the films in question are thumbnailed below.

Even though I run at Hollywood-dedicated blog, I didn’t watch the Oscars. Frankly, I don’t care what movies insiders think are good. I seldom agree.
Now, if you want to talk about how the hotties looked on the red carpet, that’s a whole ‘nother matter. AP Fashion Writer Samantha Critchell has a great roundup of who wore what and who shoulda worn something different. She thiinks Keira Knightley stole the show:
Keira Knightley proved to be fashion royalty at the Academy Awards. She wore a wine-colored, one-shoulder gown by Vera Wang that hit the right balance between youthful funkiness and movie-star glamour. The 20-year-old wore her strawberry blond hair in a loose ponytail, and she had on a one-of-a-kind necklace with emeralds, rubies and diamonds from the 1960s she chose from the Bulgari archives.
Knightley looks good, to be sure:
So do Charlize Theron and Salma Hayek. But then, what else is new?
 
One suspects Helena Bonham Carter was trying to distract attention from her escort:

The rest of Critchell’s roundup below the fold.
Michelle Williams modeled herself after classic screen sirens, wearing a yellow chiffon gown with tulle pleats surrounding the V neck. On her arm was Heath Ledger in a classic bow-tie tuxedo, down to the white pocketsquare.
Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillipe looked like a superstar couple — she wore a gown with rows of silver beads and he was dressed in a three-piece suit with a black tie.
Felicity Huffman wore a supersexy black gown by Zac Posen with a plunging V neck, keyhole back, sheer panels on the side and pleated bodice and hem.
For Rachel Weisz, who is 7 months pregnant, comfort was important in picking her long, slinky black gown with cap sleeves — which also showed off significant cleavage. “My friend Narciso Rodriguez made me three dresses and I chose one this morning,” she said. Her Chopard emerald-cut diamond demi-drop earrings had round white diamond studs.
Jessica Alba, who was caught by the cameras touching up her Dior lipgloss, chose a tight gold Versace halter gown with floral beading that she said “fit like a glove,” and Jane Seymour was in a champagne satin halter gown with jeweled accents on the bodice by Pamella Roland.
Sandra Bullock and Amy Adams both picked gowns with pockets. Bullock’s navy gown was by Angel Sanchez and Adams’ chocolate brown gown with ribbon applique was by Carolina Herrera. Adams even borrowed Herrera’s own aquamarine dangling earrings.
Charlize Theron’s forest-green, handpainted gown with a bow on one shoulder was designed by John Galliano for Christian Dior. She said the leather silk satin fabric was “insane” — but some might have said that about the too-big bow.
Jennifer Lopez was in a lighter green gown with a fitted bodice that laced up in the back like a corset.
Ziyi Zhang picked a Giorgio Armani gown fresh off the runway: a black scalloped seashell-shaped lace bustier with jet beading worn with a gray Swarovski crystal encrusted full crinoline skirt. Hilary Swank was in a sweetheart-style black strapless gown by Versace.
Jennifer Aniston was in a black tank gown by Rochas with a long train and a vintage platinum-and-diamond Bulgari necklace from the 1930s. Makeup artist Angela Levin, calling Aniston “a sun-kissed angel,” emphasized her eyelashes with a not-yet-available Chanel mascara.
Nicole Kidman was in a cream-colored strapless gown with beautiful delicate embroidery, and Naomi Watts wore a nude-colored, one-shoulder gown with frayed fabric on the top by Givenchy. As the model in jeweler David Yurman’s new ads, Watts’ rose quartz-and-diamond earrings and a rose quartz ring were made especially for her.
Jennifer Garner wore a halter-style, hand-embroidered Michael Kors gown in nude-colored tulle featuring Swarovski crystals and sterling silver flowers.
Jada Pinkett Smith was in a bright blue strapless column gown by Roberto Cavalli. “I just wanted to be a little vibrant and a little sexy on the carpet,” she said. Husband Will Smith chimed in, “That’s my wife in the dress. It becomes difficult to notice the dress itself.”
Salma Hayek had on a slate blue gown, and her hair was long and loose.
One of the biggest misses of the night was Helena Bonham Carter. Her off-the-shoulder, tea-length blue satin gown was fine but her bed-head hair and clunky white shoes were not.
Oscar.com fashion analyst Tom Julian was a fan of Meryl Streep’s plum V-neck gown with long sleeves that she wore with dangling earrings. Julian also noted that the shape of the Oscar gowns shifted to full skirts from the more formfitting styles at the award shows earlier in the season.
As for the men, George Clooney was trying to be sarcastic when he told E!’s Isaac Mizrahi “I’m very stylish,” but he indeed was in his Armani two-button peak lapel tuxedo.
Nothing wrong with Armani.
