Angelina Jolie: Brad Pitt found my pregnancy sexy

Angelina Jolie has revealed that both she and Brad Pitt loved it when she was pregnant - and she can’t think of anything sexier than watching Brad be a good father to their four children.

Angelina gave birth to daughter Shiloh in Namibia in May 2006 and she told Marie Claire recently: “I loved being pregnant and fortunately I was with a man who found it sexy, too.”

“In the weeks before the birth we’d have dinner in the dunes by candlelight. We would have tents out there and we had the ocean.”

“I’m so happy [that we’re a family] for my children - especially Maddox. I didn’t know if [Brad] was ever going to have a dad. So when I watch him and Brad having real father-and-son time, it’s hot. I mean, there’s nothing sexier than a man who is a great father.”

More gossip snippets: Britney Spears; and Owen Wilson’s ex

Britney Spears

  • Legal documents from Britney Spears / Kevin Federline’s ongoing custody hearing have revealed that Britney earns an average of $737,868 a month, and Kevin receives around $20,000 of spousal support each month (but only until November). The papers also revealed that Kevin’s lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan is asking for $50,000 from Britney to cover Kevin’s costs in the custody battle and that Federline wants to shift the custody arrangement from 50/50 to 70/30 in his favour.
  • Owen Wilson’s former girlfriend has said she was shocked by the actor’s suicide attempt because he seemed “so happy” when they met up last month. Fashion designer Stephanie Conley dated Owen in 2005 and they met up in Italy in July. She has now said of the meeting: “He was on vacation and having such an amazing time. Obviously something has gone very wrong in his personal life since then but he was so happy - I just don’t understand.”

Courtney Love / Steve Coogan continues to squabble over Owen Wilson

Courtney Love has continued her war of words with Steve Coogan over Owen Wilson’s suicide attempt.

After suggesting the British comedian was to blame for Owen’s overdose at the weekend, a spokesperson for Steve said that they were considering legal action but Courtney insists: “There’s nothing illegal or wrong with saying that someone’s a bad influence. I could get into some very specific detail that I’m not going to.”

“I’m not judgmental on anyone else’s lifestyle at all. I have done everything there is to do. If someone wants to do drugs they can do drugs, if someone wants to have all the sex in the world they can have all the sex in the world - I don’t care.”

“But it starts to get to the place where it hurts people around them, and the numbers are astonishing of who it hurts.”

“I’m no the only person saying this either. I think next week you’ll see a lot more quotes.

Courtney added about the Alan Partridge star: “Hopefully [Steve] will leave us alone in this town and go back to Brighton or wherever the hell he’s from… and stay there.”

“He’s not even known over here. No one knows who the guy is. He has bit parts in movies - that’s what he does.”

In return, Steve has now told Access Hollywood: “My thoughts are with my friend Owen at this difficult time, but I do want to set the record straight and say that the allegations are completely and utterly false.”

Zac Efron: I don’t want to keep making High School Musicals

Zac EfronZac Efron has said he can’t see himself making any more High School Musical made-for-TV films - but he’ll take part in a big-screen version if it happens.

Promoting High School Musical 2 in London, Zac said recently that he’ll “hopefully not do any more” HSM sequels for TV but “I’d want to be part [in a big-screen film] because it would be a testimony to its enormous success.”

“I am going to be who I am without High School Musical. I could act, sing and fake my way through a dance. But singing and being in musicals wasn’t what I set out to do. It happened on the way, but I don’t want it to be a major part of my career.”

Zac shows off his vocal talents for the first time in the sequel after his songs in the first film were dubbed by another vocalist, Andrew Seeley: “It was definitely a sore point and disappointing for me not to sing first time round.”

“The fans are really supportive because it wasn’t my voice in the first movie and I didn’t even sing on the first album, although I wanted to.”

“I’ve got more of a raw, untrained voice and [Disney] wanted more of a pop sound.”

“I’ve not taken any lessons [and] it was a challenge, but I have actually been singing all my life.”
