By Sherry Amatenstein, LCSW, and author of The Complete Marriage Counselor It sounds simplistic, but the primary key to a successful marriage, whether the couple are superstars or just plain folk, is for the pair to make each other a priority.
From Tom Cruise to John Travolta to Jake Gyllenhaal, gay rumors are certainly nothing new for Hollywood's leading men—and James Franco is no exception. Yet amid frantic denials and strategic avoidance by other stars, Franco's not shy about discussing his sexual preference—on-screen and off.
Special delivery! After months of anticipation, a boy bundle of joy arrived yesterday for actors John Travolta and Kelly Preston. Born in a Florida hospital, the couple's new son Benjamin weighed in at a healthy eight pounds, three ounces.
We’re not sure what John Travolta did to the National Enquirer, but the in this week’s issue, the tabloid rag is calling him out, not only for cheating on his currently 7-months pregnant wife Kelly Preston, but for cheating on her with men! The magazine has published quotes from writer Robert Randolph, who recently wrote a book about the Hollywood gay spa culture and insists that John has engaged in “lewd sex acts with other men” on multiple occasions: “I met John in 1998, after he had married Kelly. I believe the marriage is a total fraud because John is totally into guys and has been having sex with them behind Kelly’s back for years. He came on to me a number of times. I always turned him down. But there was always some guy who was willing to have sex with him. And John didn’t stop cheating on Kelly after either of their children was born. John’s a cheating dog. It’s just been wrong, because his wife seems like such a sweet woman.”
Kelly Preston and John Travolta have been together for almost 20 years, which (Scientology and Battlefield Earth aside) already makes us root for them. Sadly, the pair has been through a pretty rough time lately, so we're thrilled to report that they're expecting! And it's a boy!
The latest issue of Star announces that John Travolta and Kelly Preston are having a baby—news that the Travoltas have confirmed on their official website with this statement: "It's impossible to keep a secret...especially one as wonderful as this. We are expecting a new addition to our family."
In a city where partners are constantly changing, there are a few pairings that have proven to be a real teammates. We've found even more star-crossed lovers that have stayed together while romances among other elite have burned out.
Celebs are under constant pressure to look their very best, and even though what's attractive is entirely subjective, the general opinion is that "the very best" equals "the very thinnest." And while it may seem that that pressure to be skinny is only directed at women, men feel it too. But we hope the following 7 guys don't change a thing, because we love them just the way they are: cuddly and cute!
There has been a lot of hubbub lately about sex and love in the workplace, thanks to the David Letterman and Steve Phillips scandals. However, office romances aren't always tawdry affairs. And with people working longer hours these days, co-working couples are very common. It makes perfect sense—getting to know someone in a work environment takes a lot of the pressure off of those awkward first date situations and helps create "insta-relationships." And if it's so easy for us Average Joes and Janes to fall in love at work under harsh fluoroescent lighting, can you imagine how it must be for beautiful, perfectly-lit celebs? Although some of those on-screen and on-stage celeb hook-ups end when the lights go down, many have true staying power.
