And even though Paltrow and Diaz have been friends for years, she has recently turned her into a closer confidante. 'Gwyneth is a nurturer,' the source explained of Chris Martin's wife. '(Cameron) is bummed about being single, so Gwyneth sees her as a project.'

Apparently, Paltrow – who's been married to the Coldplay frontman for six years - is making it her mission to find Diaz a man.

The What to Expect When You Are Expecting actress was most recently linked and had an on-off-again relationship with New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez, who famously broke Diaz's heart. - entertainmentwise.com

Fergie not pregnant

Poor women of Hollywood: You eat a cheeseburger (or pizza, a la Lady Gaga) and all the world puts you on a baby bump watch.

Fergie, 37, is the latest star compelled to quash pregnancy rumours: '(People ask if I'm pregnant) every time I fluctuate a few pounds.

'Like right now, I'm a couple pounds up. Sometimes I go a couple pounds down and I wear the clothes that are more fitted, but people kind of look at me because they're expecting (that) it's that time.

'(Husband Josh Duhamel and I) do hope for children and that will be coming up, but it's not yet.' - aceshowbiz.com

Protecting fertility

A discovery about how cells die could lead to ways to protect fertility in women having cancer treatment, researchers suggested.

Australian scientists found two specific proteins caused the death of early egg cells in the ovaries.

Blocking them meant cells survived the effects of radiotherapy, according to the study published in the journal Molecular Cell.

A UK expert said the research was an 'encouraging starting point'.

This causes many female cancer patients to become infertile. Low numbers of egg cells can also lead to a woman going through an early menopause. - bbc.co.uk

The Making of Madonna’s First Album Cover

Carin Goldberg — the art director behind Madonna’s debut album cover — spoke to the Cut about her first experience with the then-unknown pop star. It’s the first question that anybody asks me, even today: What was it like to work with Madonna? People think that maybe something dramatic or interesting or kind of wild might have happened, based on, you know, Madonna’s persona. But I would say that Madonna was probably the easiest job I ever had — the most cooperation from a recording artist I think I ever had. She was a true professional, even at that young age. It was ’83, and at that point I had my own small design firm. Warner Bros. called and asked me to do her cover as a freelance designer. When I got the call, I rolled my eyes, because it was another [musician with a] one-word name. At that time it had become cliché to have a one-word name, because of Cher, so I remember thinking, God, it’s going to be one of those. So I really went into it with very little expec...

On July 10 1985, The Playboy magazine issue of nude Madonna photos was released !!

Playboy publishes nude photos of Madonna taken before she was famous. The singer did a number of nude photo shoots from 1977-1980, starting when she was an 18-year-old student at the University of Michigan looking for some extra cash and trying to form a band. Now a huge star, Playboy publishes some of the shots taken in 1979 and 1980 in a revealing spread. A year earlier, the magazine turned down nude photos of Miss America winner Vanessa Williams , which their rival Penthouse published. "We think Vanessa genuinely didn't know what she was doing, didn't know her photos might be published," the article states. "Madonna, on the other hand, posed repeatedly for two noted photographers who routinely publish what they shoot." One of the photographers, Lee Friedlander, says of the shoot: "She seemed very confident, a street-wise girl." Madonna has little to say on the matter, but doesn't shy away. "I'm not ashamed,...
