What the Kiwi gossip mags say

The world's most beautiful family just got bigger as Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt introduce their newborn twins to the world. Put your sunnies on - their combined hotness is blinding.



New Idea is the envy of their competitors as the mag shows off an exclusive 16-page photo banquet featuring Brad and Ange with kids Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh, and recent arrivals, twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline.


They're starting to sound like the spew from a bad Mexican version of The OC.


"Viv is quite an elegant, like her mother," Brad tells NI when asked if there ar any similarities - apart from their overbearing hot pants - the twins ploughshare with their parents.


"Knox likes a bit of music, like his dad. When he was born he looked like Putin."


Did Brad just compare ruthless Russian leader Vladimir Putin to a baby? Best be sleeping with one eye open, buddy.


Despite the overwhelming coverage, Brad and Ange aren't the only celebs celebrating all things little, cute and smelly this week.


Bernice Mene and Dion Nash have welcomed daughter India Lily to the family, although it's dubious the couple got anywhere near the rumoured US$14 million Brangelina got for their baby snaps.


That $25 Briscoes voucher should 'NiceNash'�a new sauteing pan though.


The former international netballer tells Woman's Weekly little India has created an unlooked-for problem in the pattern of�a covetous pet cat.


"He (feline friend Jim Morrison) has in spades struggled with the new addition and has been really attention-seeking," Bernice says.


"During our manic times, when (son) Sol's crying and India's clamant too, he will land a black eye or half a bird into the house to try and prove his worth."


This is just a guess, Bernice, but perhaps the kids are egregious because in that respect are beheaded animals lying around your house of horrors?


Elsewhere, married TV One presenter Pippa Wetzell has been through seven work force in just two months.


No, stop beingness dirty. Pippa is talking about the multiple co-hosts she's been paired with�on morning goggle box show Breakfast while Paul Henry is away.


Pippa calls it "professional dating" and tells Woman's Day her husband finds the situation awkward.


"I cogitate he's a little bit disturbed that he wakes up every Monday morning to rule me with another valet," Pippa says.


That's not surprising. After the hand-holding antics of Mike Hosking and Kate Hawkesby, anything canful happen on that couch.


Other stars wHO hit the headlines this week:


* Jennifer Aniston is convalescent from ex-hubby Brad Pitt's twins by announcing her own baby news.�She's not pregnant yet, but WD reports she's very, very keen. "Seeing Brad with his kids hasn't been easy for her," a friend says. "It's made her all the more determined to be a mum." Better bust out sextuplets straightaway smart, Jen, or you'll never catch up.


*�Peter Williams met his wife at a gay mardi gras. The TV One news reader tells WW he met his married woman Sarah Shandley at Auckland's now defunct Hero Parade. "She was this strong-willed, professional, unattached woman and she was swooped upon by me," he says. Like an eagle catching its prey.


* In the latest from Hollywood, Katie Holmes loves to wear her hubby's baggy jeans and could possibly be pregnant, a definitely significant Lisa Marie wants to give birth to her twins in her dad's former home in Graceland, Gwen Stefani is set to drop baby No. 2 any day now, and an almost certainly not pregnant George Clooney has been spotted holidaying with Cindy Crawford and her hubby Randy Gerber. Three's a crowd, buddy.


Finally, the quote of the week comes from Scarlett Johansson, world Health Organization claims her lesbian love scene with Penelope Cruz wasn't sexy at all:�"There were like 60 crewmen eating salami sandwiches and staring ... it's really the least sexy thing you can ever imagine."


Nope, the least sexy thing we can ideate is Michael Jackson pashing Robert Guest. Nice essay though, Scarlett.


* What do you think of this week's rumormonger? Post your comments below.

Flashpoint , a Canadian-produced cop drama that CBS picked up during the writers' strike when production of U.S. shows had shut down, placed first in its 10:00 p.m. time period Thursday night and retained virtually all of the audience of its lead-in, a rerun of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.

Duffy set for first Hub gig

Let�s font it: Calling Duffy the next Amy Winehouse isn�t much of a compliment.


While Winehouse struggles with do drugs addiction, Britain�s latest white soul sensation is into clean surviving. Ten years ago, the Wales-born Aimee Duffy was placed in a safe home when police learned her stepdad�s alcoholic ex had hired a hit man to kill him. The murder plot was foiled, but witnessing that sort of madness has kept Duffy, who ditched her showtime name five-spot years ago, scared straight.


The only comparison that holds water is between the delectable soul-pop of Winehouse�s �Back to Black� and that of Duffy�s major label debut, �Rockferry,� which brings her to the Wilbur Theatre tomorrow nox for her Boston premiere. But regular then, Winehouse�s retro-soul is steeped in reggae, ska, beat-box and jazz, patch Duffy�s sound is considerably less splintered.




We caught up with 24-year-old Duffy during a earphone call from London.


Boston Herald: Hip-hop babe Estelle mouthed off around you and other white River soul singers in the British entreat not long ago, but then you sang at Harlem�s Apollo Theater - a classical soul locale. Was that vindicating?


Duffy: I felt no sense of judgment in that room. It was one of the most spectacular moments in my life, really. No one can ever so take that away from me. When the lights went up and the show started, I thought process, �This is how it�s meant to be.� I didn�t put forbidden this record to then sit endorse and be judged. The bottom line is, you can�t help what colouring material you�re innate; every person has emotion, and that�s what soul music is - emotion.


BH: Rumor has it that a game plan existed to groom you and your CD to create a retro sound; is there whatever truth to this?


Duffy: Not really, no. And I don�t often like the word �retro� - I�m not sure what that is, actually. I made loads of songs over three and a half years, and at the end of the recording process, these are the ones that fit together best. I felt wish a curator for an art gallery.


BH: Coming from humble beginnings, does success feel strange?


Duffy: Success is very personal to me. I felt a degree of success in making a quaker cry when I played her one of my songs, it was such a real emotional response. The roost is all dollars, dates and diaries.


BH: Is it unnerving to be repeatedly compared to a isaac Bashevis Singer who, contempt being talented, is view of as a train wreck in progress?


Duffy: It�s like anything else. A young male child may crash his elevator car somewhere or a baby dies throttling, but you can�t waste energy bedevilment if you�ll meet the same fate because of some similarity between you and them. We have control over our have lives and what we do with them, merely bad decisions can rob us of those very freedoms. I�ve seen it happen to other people. You instruct from watching.


BH: What�s succeeding for Duffy? Do you feel the pressure of expectation?


Duffy: Plans fail. It�s best to just go with what�s in front of you. Life has a funny way of making us feel like we get to adhere to rules and schedules - simply all that�s just etiquette and social boundaries. I can�t business organisation myself with what anyone expects of me. I�ve got to just listen to my heart.

Artist Lisa Ross Takes a Gravely Moving Photo

Lisa Ross' Unrevealed, site 3 (sufi shrine 2), 2008.Courtesy of the Artist and Bellwether, New York
Lisa Ross's shimmering image captures a spile of ornamented twigs and branches that appear to have landed rather elegantly, like a delicate game of peck sticks, in the abandon. It's not, as you might think, a nifty pile of leftovers from last year's Burning Man. It's actually an adorned burial cumulus of the Uyghur people from the Xinjiang area of western China, designed to reverence local saints and mystics (scrappy flower people: Do non disturb). The image is part of a group show of images of death and the culture surrounding it at Bellwether, New York, through August 8. —Emma Pearse
