Actress Scarlett Johansson opened up about the men in her life’s past and present in an interview with Vogue, including her painful split from actor Ryan Reynolds. Although the We Bought a Zoo actress is happy and in love once again with boyfriend, Nate Naylor, she says the memory of her divorce from Reynolds was devastating and painful, but something she doesn’t regret, according to The Daily Mail. The couple, who split in December of 2010, led a private and love-filled marriage, but their busy careers got the best of them. ‘This was something I never thought I would be doing. And there’s no way to navigate it,” said Johansson of her divorce. “Nobody can give you the right answer. It’s never anything you want to hear. It’s a very lonely thing. It’s like the loneliest thing you’ll ever do, in some way.”

Bad Boy Attraction Can Quickly Burn Out
At first, part of the attraction stems from the fact that things are so spontaneous and exciting. He doesn’t call four times, but rather just shows up unannounced. But after a while, this can become a bit tiresome and a woman wants someone she can rely and depend on.

NCIS actor Michael Weatherly has some big news: he recently welcomed a daughter with wife Bojana Jankovic. Their baby name of choice, you ask? Olivia. “My wife Bojana is Serbian and her name means war or warrior,” Weatherly said, according to People. “And when you give someone an olive branch, that’s an offering of peace so Olivia is peace. I think we have a Tolstoy novel going on now: Mother and daughter, war and peace!?” Although this is a happy coincidence and not necessarily a planned deeper meaning, the couple is thrilled to have found stumbled upon the connection.

The ladies of Generation X were some of the first to trade the domesticity of the housewife for the slacks of Corporate America. Powerful and confident women are sexy, but society hasn’t completely caught up with us yet, and it’s still uncommon for a female salary to outweigh that of her spouse’s. That’s where Hollywood comes in with a good message for once, as stunning starlets are throwing off the national average by earning more than their celebrity loves. Below is a list of sexy female celebs empowering themselves through healthy relationships and hefty paychecks: …Ready for the rest? Click here!

In actress Chloe Moretz’s upcoming film, Hick, she runs away from her abusive parents, but her real life family is far from that in the movie. Not only are her parents very involved, so are her big brothers, and she blames them for her nonexistent love life. “Because of my four older brothers, it just doesn’t go down,” she said according to People. “I had a lot of friends and guys that I think are cute and stuff, but it doesn’t really work out with the family and all. My family’s a bit too big and a bit too abrasive.” As for now, the 15-year-old star spends her time playing video games instead of dreaming about boys.

For the past decade, the world has become infatuated with reality TV shows. However, most people are less interested in the everyday lives of the featured stars, but rather their drama-filled love lives.
There have been beds flying across rooms, as seen on MTV’s Jersey Shore with Ron and Sam, and a couple of weddings on The BachelorandThe Bachelorette. We’ve been in shock, we’ve laughed and we’ve cried with reality stars as we sit on our couches and watch them make the same mistakes over and over again. No matter how many times the things happens, we’re drawn in and simply cannot take our eyes off the screen.
Through all of the deceit and drama, most reality relationships end in failure; however, there are a few couples that beat the trend and have ended up happy and successful together:

Britney Spears’ father is making an extra effort to bond with his future son-in-law in an unusual way. Jamie Spears is asking a court to add Jason Trawick as a co-conservator over his daughter, a source confirmed to People. Jamie Spears, who’s has had legal control over his daughter’s multimillion dollar fortune since February 2008 after the pop singer suffered a psychological breakdown, plans for Trawick to have shared legal control over his Spears’s well being, but not her finances, according to the source. While a conservator can make decisions over a person’s clothing, food and medical care, Spears will still have plenty of personal freedom.

This time though, Messer is convinced the marriage will last. “We have a really good connection…It’s different from Corey and my relationship, because we were kinda like forcing it… With Jeremy, you know when you’re supposed to be with somebody and you’re not,” Messer said, according to UsMagazine.com.

Cibrian is already the father of two boys, and Rimes has made it clear she isn’t expecting any time soon. Turning to Twitter, Rimes has answered back to these false rumors in January, “I have never even tried. Please stop discussing my ovaries.”
