The "30 Rock" star and her husband, Jeffrey Richmond, welcomed baby Penelope Athena on Wednesday, the actress' rep confirmed to Access Hollywood.Penelope Athena is the couple's second daughter. Their first child, Alice, is 5.It was back in April, while appearing on "The Oprah Winfrey Show," that Tina first confirmed she was pregnant.

The new baby will give husband Jeff a second chance at diaper duty.In GQ's May issue, the "Bossypants" author said her husband was good at everything to do with Alice, everything but diaper duty."My husband was really good about helping out. The problem was diapers. He never got past the poop," Tina previously told the mag. "He would do these 'Oh God, I'm gonna vomit.' Never got over it."

Kristen Stewart was born on 9th April 1990 in Los Angeles, California, USA, where her father worked as a stage manager, producer and director on numerous Fox television shows and her mother was a scriptwriter. Her performance in a grade school Christmas play caught the eye of a talent agent in the audience, so at the age of eight, Stewart began auditioning for film and television roles.

She landed a bit role in the Disney Channel TV production, "The Thirteenth Year" (1999) and snared a more substantial part two years later in Rose Troche's challenging independent drama "The Safety of Objects" (2001), in which she played the tomboyish daughter of troubled single mom Patricia Clarkson. Stewart found herself at the center of a major Hollywood production in 2002 when she was cast as the juvenile lead in David Fincher's Panic Room.

She portrayed a high school freshman who stops almost all verbal communication after being raped by an upperclassman, but retains a vivid and often sardonic running commentary in her head. She handled the complexities of the character with her customary skill and segued into Jon Favreau's underrated space fantasy "Zathura" (2005), which, despite requiring her to remain in a state of suspended animation for part of the film, gave her a showcase for her comic skills.

It was while working on the sequel "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" (2009) - that rumors began swirling that the much beloved onscreen coupling of Stewart and her co-star, Robert Pattinson - her seductive vampire love, Edward Cullen - was becoming a lovefest off set.Blogs and teeny bopper magazines dissected every photograph and interview the two participated in, all in order to get to the bottom of the question at hand: was the couple dating? Neither officially said, but the furor only added more luster to the highly anticipated "Twilight" sequel.

Kristen Stewart can definitely work it on the red carpet, she usually seems most comfortable in a pair of skinny jeans and Converse kicks. But in the September issue of W magazine, the "Twilight" star looks utterly gorgeous thanks to the retro glam "Valley of the Dolls"-inspired styling.

She reveals that although she never realized the "Twilight" franchise would become as big as it did, she's personally always had an interest in vampires. "I love me a vampire," she laughs. "I was 17 when I read Twilight, and at the time it was so perfect for me. The script was about young kids who think they can handle stuff that they just can't. And they're going to do it anyway.

The last 'Twilight' book is filled with BFDs, things that people have been waiting for for so long," she notes. "For me, it was ridiculously dramatic: I get married, give birth, the baby has an incredibly accelerated growth rate we're all very concerned about, and I say goodbye to my dad for the last time ever.

I'd been anticipating that end-of-Bella moment. I was going, 'Oh, my God -- I wonder how I'm going to feel," shares Kristen. "And the last scene of the shoot was at the wedding. Every single character was there on set. At the end of that day, I was kind of whacked. And so I never really had that moment then. Instead, it happened later. We needed to film one more sort of honeymoon scene and we went to the Virgin Islands.

She still hasn't found a way to lighten up when it comes to her star status. "It's a funny thing: You want so badly for people to see what you do -- you're proud of it -- and I like the effect that movies have on people. But the attention can also make me uncomfortable.

Isabel Lucas was born on 29th January 1985 in Melbourne, She is an Australian actress perhaps best known for her role as Tasha Andrews on the Australian television soap opera Home and Away (2003–2006) and for her active role in various environmental awareness organisations including Greenpeace International.

Lucas enrolled in the Victorian College of Arts but had never pursued commercial roles. Sharron Meissner, a Sydney talent agent suggests she 'discovered' Lucas strolling on the beach at Port Douglas. She auditioned for the role of Kit Hunter in Home and Away although the producer of the show, Julie McGauran, felt that role was not right for Isabel.

Lucas and actor Shia LaBeouf (who was driving while intoxicated) were involved in a car crash, at the intersection of La Brea Avenue and Fountain Avenue in Los Angeles. His Ford F-150 was hit from the side by a vehicle running a red light.Authorities arrested LaBeouf at the scene for misdemeanor drunk driving, and his driver's license was suspended for one year.Lucas suffered only minor injuries but LaBeouf had his hand crushed and had to undergo three hand surgeries.

Taiji's fishery cooperative union argues that these protesters and that the protesters' agendas are "based neither on international law nor on science but rather on emotion for economic self-interest.Lucas is a spokesperson for the Australian National Breast Cancer Foundation,and supports many organisations including, World Vision,The Humour Foundation,Women Against Violence,Oxfam Community Aid Abroad, Global Green Plan,Save the Whales Again.

Hilary Swank was born on 30thJuly 1974 in Lincoln, Nebraska, USA, which the actress referenced frequently when expressing astonishment over her journey to earning her first Academy Award win years later. A self-described "outsider" in school, the athletic young Swank competed at a state-ranking level in both swimming and gymnastics but felt most comfortable when she was lost in a movie or novel.

She learned to escape into characters on stage, and became active in school and regional repertory theater. Her mother was supportive of her daughter's talent and dreams of becoming an actress, so when Swank's parents separated in her teens, she and her ambitious daughter moved to Los Angeles.

Just weeks later, Swank auditioned to portray Brandon Teena in "Boys Don't Cry" (1999), the fact-based story of a transgender young man from the Midwest whose murder made headlines. The beautifully realized independent film from director Kimberly Peirce presented numerous challenges for Swank, who cut off her long hair, worked with both an acting coach and a trainer, and created a male alter ego which she adopted full-time for close to a month prior to production.

She followed up with another heroic leading role in "Conviction" (2010), playing a woman who spends a decade putting herself through law school in order to represent her brother (Sam Rockwell), who is incarcerated after a wrongful murder conviction. Swank's solid performance earned substantial critical praise, as well as a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for Best Actress in a Motion Picture.

Julia Stiles was born on 28th March 1981 in New York City, New York, USA, She was raised by her father, John O'Hara, a businessman and educator, and her mother, Judith, a potter. When she was 11 years old, Stiles was prescient enough to write a letter to a stage director convincing him to hire her for an avant-garde production, leading to performing with the La MaMa Theatre Company in New York.

She offered a strong supporting performance as Phoebe, a young girl coping with an abusive home in the Oprah Winfrey-produced "Before Women Had Wings" (ABC, 1997). While her character was peripheral, she made the most of the part as the ambivalent older sister of an innocent and trusting girl (Tina Majorino), both of whom suffer at the hands of their mother (Ellen Barkin).

She made it seem as if none of the Bard's work could be modernized without her participation after she was cast as Desi in "O" (2001), a retelling of "Othello" set in a prep school, and starring Mekhi Phifer and Josh Hartnett. Filmed in 1999 but not released theatrically until 2001, thanks to its theme of teen violence and the rash of real-life incidents, "O" was somewhat lost in the shuffle despite its powerful storytelling and strong performances.

She next turned to the small screen for a 10-episode guest starring stint, playing the new love interest of everyone's favorite serial killer (Michael C. Hall) on the popular "Dexter" (Showtime, 2006- ). Hailed by critics, her performance earned the young actress a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actress in late 2010.

Kate Moss was born on 16th January 1974, is an English model. Moss is known for her waifish figure and, popularizing the heroin chic look in the 1990s, which made her a supermodel. She is also famous for her controversial private life, high profile relationships, party lifestyle, and drug use. Moss changed the look of modelling and started a global debate on eating disorders, and her role in size zero fashion.

She was born in Addiscombe, Croydon, London to Linda Rosina (Shepherd), a barmaid, and Peter Edward Moss, a travel agent.[4] Kate has a younger brother named Nick and a half-sister named Lottie and half-brother.[citation needed] Moss' parents divorced when she was 13. She attended Ridgeway Primary School and Riddlesdown Collegiate, but most commonly known as Riddlesdown Highschool, in Purley. She was not noted for her academic success, while she did excel at sports.

She was discovered in 1988 at the age of 14 by Sarah Doukas, the founder of Storm Model Management, at JFK Airport in New York City,[7] after a holiday in the Bahamas. Moss's career began when Corinne Day shot black-and-white photographs of her, styled by Melanie Ward, for British magazine The Face when she was 16, in a photo shoot titled The 3rd Summer of Love.

Her gold statue was made of Moss in 2008 as part of a British Museum exhibition. Entitled Siren, the 50 kg (110 lb) hollow statue was made by Marc Quinn, who described Moss as "the ideal beauty of the moment". The statue is said to be the largest gold statue to be created since the era of Ancient Egypt.Quinn had previously unveiled a painted-bronze, life-size sculpture of Moss in a contorted yoga pose, titled Sphinx.

Ali Lohan also made her acting debut in 2008, playing Traci in the straight-to-DVD kid's horror flick Mostly Ghostly.

The Kardashians yet -- and you secretly can't help but respect their business savvy -- snap up some of their new designs for the Kardashian Kollection at Sears. The line seems pretty affordable compared to most, priced at $22 to $99 regularly, but you can land a 30 percent discount during the store's 72-hour presale, going on now through August 10.While it's less expensive than most of the Kardashians' couture costs, the fashions do look like garments the girls would wear.

The collection includes a leopard-print jumpsuit that I could definitely see on Kourtney, a black-and-white one-shoulder dress in the style of Khloe, and fancy footwear that is very similar to the spiked heels Kim often wears.The trio is also selling notice-me jewelry, chain handbags, and lacy lingerie.Of course, the big question is whether or not fans will want to buy the glam Kardashian sisters' looks at a discount store where I'm almost certain the trio never shops.

Emmanuelle Chriqui was born on December 10, 1977 in Montreal, Quebec, CA.Chriqui (pronounced "Shreeky") moved with her family from Montreal to Toronto at an early age, spending her childhood in the suburb of Unionville. The acting bug bit after she was cast in a local theater production at age seven, and by 10, she logged her first job in a Canadian commercial for McDonald's.

Her first major Hollywood film role came in 1999 with a supporting turn in the goofball comedy "Detroit Rock City," which was quickly followed by the popular Nickelodeon big-screen kids' flick "Snow Day" (2000). Chriqui next shot scenes for three major film and television productions - Steven Spielberg's "A.I." (2001), Todd Solondz's "Storytelling" (2001), and the series "Manchester Prep" (1999).

Chriqui soldiered on and began paying her dues in a string of largely forgettable theatrical releases, including the grim "On the Line" (2001), starring 'N SYNC's Lance Bass and J y Fatone, as well as the wretched horror flick "Wrong Turn" (2003). In 2005, she witnessed a turn in fortune in regard to the quality of her projects - an appearance as herself on HBO's short-lived improvisational series "Unscripted" (2005) was followed by a two-episode turn on "The O.C.

It was for a much more auspicious occasion - to join Mark Wahlberg's Hollywood series "Entourage" in a recurring role as Sloan Mackewich, daughter to Malcolm McDowell's Terence Mackewich, nemesis of agent Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven). Initially targeted by lothario lead Vince (Adrian Grenier), Sloan took a shine to his friend and manager Eric (Kevin Connolly) and introduced a little happiness into his high-pressure life.

Hilary Duff was born on 28th September 1987 in Houston, Texas, USA. Her father, Robert Erhard Duff, owned a chain of convenience stores, while her mother, Susan Colleen, was a homemaker. She had an older sister named Haylie who started acting and singing in preschool.

She wanted to follow in her sister’s footsteps, and after the pair booked a few commercials in Texas, Susan decided to move with her daughters to Los Angeles for pilot season. When Duff was nine, she worked on a pilot with her sister titled “The Underworld” that never came to light. She had minor roles in the films “True Women” (1997) and “Playing by Heart” (1998) before getting her first starring role in the direct-to-video project “Casper Meets Wendy” (1998).

She was also in control of a business empire, as CEO of the clothing line “Stuff by Hilary Duff.” In September 2006, she released the fragrance “With Love,” a Hilary doll for Mattel, and appeared in the Electronic Arts video game “The Sims 2: Pets” along with her dog Lola.

It was reported that she was offered the lead role in the CW Network’s remake of “Beverly Hills, 90210” (2008 - ), but she turned it down because she wanted to move away from the teen genre. Duff instead worked on the independent film “Greta” (2008) with Academy Award winner Ellen Burstyn and the dark comedy “Safety Glass” (2009).

Before Joel Madden and Nicole Richie became parents and got hitched, they kicked back in a four bedroom, four bathroom bachelor pad located in Glendale, Calif., which is now seeking a lessee who's willing to pay a cool $5,950 a month!

No word if Madden is one of those landlords who is including utilities in the near $6,000 rent, but E! Online reports that the cost for a gardener is part of the hefty monthly price tag. In addition, the home, which was featured on MTV Cribs, comes fully furnished and has three fireplaces, plus a sprawling backyard.

Taylor Lautner, 19, recently dropped some serious cash on a star-worthy sexy new ride - a 2012 SLS AMG Mercedes-Benz priced at more than $200,000.

Taylor told Access Hollywood of his impressive new wheels at the 2011 Hollywood Foreign Press Association Luncheon in Beverly Hills on Thursday.

I've been driving my first car for the past four and a half years and I've always had my eye on this car."

The heartthrob - who looked dapper in a suit by Calvin Klein - said the privilege of being able to afford a car of such high caliber has not been lost on him.

In addition to the incredibly highly anticipated upcoming "Breaking Dawn" films, Taylor will next be seen in John Singleton's action thriller, "Abduction," alongside Lily Collins, Alfred Molina and Sigourney Weaver.

I'm super excited -- it's coming out in like a month and a half now," Taylor told Access of his "Abduction" anticipation.

It was a fast process -- we filmed it last summer," he added. "But it's been a journey since then.

It's coming together really well. I can't wait for everyone to see it."Catch Taylor on the big screen when "Abduction" hits theaters on September 23.

Cheryl Tweedy was born on June 30, 1983 in Newcastle Upon Tyne, England, UK. She is a young singer. Cheryl began her modeling career at the tender age of 6 when she won the prestigious World Star of Future Modeling competition. And she didn’t stop there. In the years that followed, she was named “Best Looking Girl of Newcastle,” “Most Attractive Girl” at the Metro Square, and she starred in a string of popular commercials seen throughout the British Isles.

Despite her success as a dancer, Cheryl’s true love was singing and she longed for the opportunity to show off her dazzling vocal prowess.Luckily, she was given a chance to do just that in 2002, when ITV1 held an open audition for their new reality show, Popstars: The Rivals. “I was working as a waitress at the time,” Cheryl recalls. “I saw Popstars would be about two new bands, so I just thought I’d give an audition a go.”

Unfortunately, Cheryl made news for all the wrong reasons later that year when she was convicted of assaulting a toilet attendant at a nightclub in Guilford. Although she was cleared of all charges of racially aggravated assault, Cheryl was found guilty of occasioning actual bodily harm and was sentenced to 120 hours of community service. According to Cheryl, the incident brought her down to earth.

The disc was also equally popular with the group’s loyal fans who made Chemistry Girls Aloud’s third consecutive platinum-selling record.Girls Aloud hit the charts again in September 2006 with the release of their first greatest hits compilation, The Sound of Girls Aloud. The album debuted at No. 1 on the U.K. charts, and went on to sell an impressive 84,000 copies in its first week.
