People mag reports that J-Lo, a first-time mom at 39, was "thrilled" at the babies' arrival. Papa Anthony, 38, has three other children.
If you hated the way "The Sopranos" ended their finale last season - with Tony and his family sitting around a diner and the screen cuts to black - then you'll be interested to hear that some of the cast members would be willing to keep it going.

Speaking at the launch of her new wine, Lorraine Bracco called on creator David Chase to bring 'The Sopranos' back for another season - or a movie.
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony famous twins have reportedly been given names - Max and Emme.

According to Lopez' manager, Simon Fields, the names have been confirmed by People magazine last Friday. The magazine also paid $6 million for the first photos of Max and Emme.
British supermodel Naomi Campbell was released from Sirio Libanes Hospital on Friday after recovering from an abdominal surgery.

Soap star Hunter Tylo is continuing with her malpractice suit against the therapist who was treating her 19-year-old son, Michael Tylo II, who drowned last year at the family home. A judge in the case ruled against Tylo's move to include her deceased son as a party in the legal action on Friday. Young Michael drowned last October in the family pool while his parent and siblings were out for the day. An autopsy revealed that the teen had a seizure near the pool, fell in and drowned.

"A Las Vegas judge has dismissed a portion of a lawsuit filed by actress Hunter Tylo against a therapist who was counseling her 19-year-old son, Michael Tylo II, prior to his drowning last October.

The Bold and the Beautiful star filed the suit in the form of a Jan. 24 amendment to an April 2006 malpractice lawsuit filed against Henderson, Nev., therapist Shanna Downing, who was working with several members of the Tylo family in 2004 and 2005.

Downing countered the wrongful death lawsuit with a motion to exclude Michael Tylo II as a party in the legal action, and Tylo was required to respond to Downing's motion by Feb. 11, but she missed the filing deadline."

"To date, no opposition has been filed," court papers state.
Sophie Monk says her breakup with rocker Benji Madden was amicable and she wishes her ex and his quickly found love Paris Hilton all the best.

"Let me make this as plain as possible ? Benji did not leave me for Paris Hilton " Monk, 28, said in a statement, according to Australia's Herald Sun. "Benji and I did not break up badly or anything like that. We both decided, as adults, our relationship had run its course and decided to move on. I feel no animosity towards Benji and Paris at all and am very happy with life at the moment."

Less than two weeks after Monk, an Australian native, and the Good Charlotte guitarist called off their engagement, Madden, 28, was seen with Hilton. On Friday, Hilton, 27, left the jewelry store XIV Karats of Beverly Hills wearing a ring on her engagement finger, but declined to reveal whether she had wedding plans.
Britney Spears has dumped her photographer lover after finding racy text messages from other women on his phone.

The 26-year-old singer became convinced Adnan Ghalib had cheated on her when she discovered the series of raunchy texts and threw the snapper's $600 iPhone into her pool at her Hollywood Hills home before ordering him to leave.

A source said: "There were about a dozen text messages from one girl, all sent on one day. They were pretty saucy stuff with sexual references - certainly not the sort you'd send to just a friend."

"Britney lost it and started yelling. She was demanding to know who sent the texts and shouting, 'What's this about? You're cheating on me.'"

Britney decided to confront Adnan after two video clips showing him out with two women, one of which he was seen briefly holding hands with, were posted on the internet.
With David Beckham away with LA Galaxy yet again, Posh Spice was certainly not wasting any time pining at home.

The former Spice Girl was spotted enjoying a late night out with friends in Hollywood, where she emerged from a restaurant looking rather worse for wear at 2am.

And while the self-appointed fashionista is not usually one to be seen in the same outfit twice, she was seen wearing her grey cropped T-shirt, complete with a sheer gauze layer and matching pencil skirt for the second time in a month.

Posh is now footloose and fancy free after wrapping her much-hyped Spice Girls reunion tour in Toronto last week.

The tour ground to a premature halt in the Canadian city, following reports the fivesome locked in a bitter feud and had suffered flagging ticket sales.

The 33-year-old mother quickly resumed promoting her dVb fashion line - she is expected to earn £15million from her brand, which now sells sunglasses, denim and handbags.
Surprisingly, Paris Hilton didn't spend her Saturday night clubbing, but instead she spent it with her new buddy.

The only thing better than escaping the winter blahs in sunny Miami, Florida is doing so with a hot guy! And it appears that Kate Hudson has already figured that one out.

The "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" actress has been spotted all over the city as she's in town for the film festival being held there. And she's not alone... her "You, Me, and Dupree" co-star Owen Wilson is said to be staying at the hotel next door to hers.

Last week, the platinum pair was spotted visiting each other's houses several times, as well as at Madonna's exclusive post-Oscar party. And according to witnesses, it was more than a "friendly" encounter.
Mariah Carey is scared of motherhood.

The 'Touch My Body' singer - who is currently dating record executive Mark Sudack - definitely wants to start a family in the future, but only when she is in a position to devote herself entirely to a child.

She said: "Obviously having a kid is a commitment for life. I really would have to be very, very positive that I was in a place where I could completely focus and put everything into the job of being someone's mommy because it's hard enough to have a puppy."

Mariah, 38, also spoke about Britney Spears' current troubles - which include drug and alcohol addiction rumours and a bitter custody battle with ex-husband Kevin Federline.
Paris Fashion Week went out with a bang with this weekend's star studded front rows galore. Jessica Alba covered up her baby bump standing next to a much taller Rihanna to check out Fendi. You guys seemed pretty evenly split as to whether Amy Winehouse deserved the $1 million paycheck to perform for the runway show, but at least she showed up. Mary-Kate Olsen was out without her twinsie but still showed off that, um, quirky fashion sense in an aggressive studded leather jacket. Kanye and his fiancée Alexis were just there to have a good time and made sure to get right to his blog to talk about how fashion will always be his first love.
Sunday afternoons are perfect for couples whose busy work schedules typically fail to permit a lot of duration together. And Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal took advantage of a break in their normally hectic routines to go shopping in Soho.

Catherine Zeta-Jones claims she's getting too old for sex scenes.

The 38-year-old actress admits she can't compete with Hollywood's younger actresses for sexy roles anymore.

The 'No Reservations' star - who has two children, Dylan, seven, and four-year-old Carys, with 63-year-old husband Michal Douglas - said: "I think it's a natural progression. I'm 38 years old and I'm going to play more mums than sex symbols.

"That's a gradual thing for me because I'm too old to play younger characters."

Although she is one of the world's biggest movie stars, Catherine doesn't think she is a great actress.
