Emmy winning actor Chad Lowe is about to embrace a new role: Dad.
Lowe, who split from ex wife Hilary Swank in 2007, will welcome a baby with producer Kim Painter in early summer, his rep said in a statement, adding "The couple is overjoyed and could not be happier."

Taylor Swift may be starting her own dress line but she doesn't want to be called a designer.
The singer is teaming up with l.e.i. to create a collection of $14 dresses that will launch at Wal-Mart in February of this year. (Wal-Mart also sells clothes from the Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen collection).
"Sundresses are my favorite things to wear," Swift tells New York magazine. "In the summer, I automatically want to look bohemian."

On Wednesday, the stunt double for Daniel "Harry Potter" Radcliffe sustained severe injuries from an on-set explosion.
The Harry Potter crew were doing some pre-production work for the seventh wizard flick at the Leavesden studios in England, where the stuntman was rehearsing a flying sequence using a harness. He was apparently sent plummeting by an on-set blast, which was part of the mocked up stunt. He was conscious after smashing to the ground but told horrified colleagues, "I can't feel my legs."

In the wake of Entertainment Weekly's having speculated Wednesday that Joaquin Phoenix - with the aid of his brother-in-law, Casey Affleck - was performing an elaborate ruse regarding his transition from Oscar-nominated actor to falling-off-the-stage rapper, Affleck's rep said this career switch is no hoax at all.
My guess is this is a very smart way of him getting free publicity. And that we should be expecting something true and talented in the future.

"The View" co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck made a special announcement on today's show!
Hasselbeck, 31, revealed on "The View" that she is expecting baby No. 3 in August. "We are thoroughly happy with the surprise of it," Elisabeth said. "We are thankful for such great news and will begin planning our zone-defense strategy immediately," she joked.

Kelly Rowland has split from her manager Matthew Knowles.
Rowland, 27, has worked with Knowles - the father of her former bandmate Beyonce - since she joined Destiny's Child in 1990.
Both Rowland and Knowles - who still manages daughter Beyonce - called the split amicable. Both say they will always be family.

Kate Beckinsale insists she's in no hurry to learn how to drive - because she loves being a passenger too much.
The Underworld actress - who doesn't have a driver's license - says her actress mother always used to strap her into the back seat of the family car and drive her for miles whenever she was upset as a teen, and still finds it comforting to let someone else do the driving.
