Hilary Duff is first wedding anniversary is extra sweet: she and Mike Comrie announced they are expecting a baby!This weekend, Mike and I are celebrating our one year anniversary! In memory of the special day, we decided to post some of our favorite pictures from our wedding!"

She wrote on her official website Sunday.I can't believe it has already been a year. Time really flies when you're having fun! We also want to share the exciting news that baby makes three!

We are extremely happy and ready to start this new chapter of our lives. Thanks to everyone for the continued love and support throughout the years!

Duff, 23, wed pro hockey player Comrie, 30, on August 14, 2010 in an intimate sunset ceremony at a $29 million estate near the San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito, Calif.

"We both love kids and we're really excited," Duff told Us Weekly Wednesday at the Kendra Scott jewelry event in L.A.

Just days before sharing her pregnancy news with the world. "It was a big deal for us because we had a year to be married."

Jessica Alba was born on Saturday, weighed 7 lbs and was 19 inches long. Healthy and happy!" Alba wrote. "Big sister Honor couldn't be more excited about the new addition to our family."

Thank you for all of your support during my pregnancy. It means the world to me.This is the actress' second child with hubby Cash Warren. In July, the Spy Kids 4 actress told Us Weekly that Honor, 3, was "as excited as a kid can be even though she doesn't really know what it means just yet."

As of last month, Alba was still getting things ready for her family's newest addition. "The nursery isn't ready. It's not even close, but I'm accumulating things," she told Us.

In the beginning the baby stays with me in the room, so you don't need the nursery ready so soon. We're remodeling our house, so it's going to take a few months. I'm really taking my time."

The actress admits she wasn't very "chill" during the birth of her first child, so she took "hypnobirth classes" to prepare for the delivery of baby number two.

It's not like the clock in front of your face and you go out and you wake up and you got a baby," she joked on the Ellen DeGeneres Show in May. "Basically my husband takes me through sort of a meditation.

He'll say, 'You're relaxed, and you're floating on clouds' while you're going through labor and your contractions.

I'm just concentrating on breathing and staying relaxed because it's when you get tense that makes the whole labor worse and more painful. That's all it is. It's not like a weird thing."

She had an older sister named Haylie who started acting and singing in preschool.

Kristen Bell and Anna Paquin stepped out in the same LBD with a sheer bodice less than two months apart. Both wowed on the red carpet in the creation by Versace's more moderately-priced line, Versus, from its Fall 2011 Ready to Wear collection.

A-line version of the frock at a Television Critics Association bash in Beverly Hills on August 2. The former "Veronica Mars" accessorized with black pumps, round silver earrings, and a sparkly Ferragamo clutch.

"True Blood" star Anna Paquin donned the dress a few inches shorter for the season premiere of her HBO hit in Hollywood on June 21.

The 29-year-old's version featured purple glitter on the bodice and a tank-style top. She completed her ensemble with black pumps, a cuff bracelet, and a metallic bag.In this fashion battle, picking the winner is easy: Anna.

Kristen's look was sweet, but a tad boring. Meanwhile, the Oscar-winning Anna took a chance by injecting some color into the equation -- and by flaunting her fabulous figure (which Kristen has, too) in a shorter style. For this, Anna wins plenty of props from me! What do you think?

Bridget Jones is Diary and its sequel, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, Renee Zellweger plays the working-class heroine who has a fondness for food, drinking and smoking and laments about the "Smug Marrieds" who plague her singleton life.

The original was very loosely based on the plot of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, while the second has elements of Austen's Persuasion.

In both films, Colin Firth played the "good guy" love interest, Mark Darcy, while Hugh Grant portrayed the "bad boy," Daniel Cleaver.

Although no other details about the third film are available, Firth had once told Access Hollywood one possible plot: Bridget has trouble conceiving children with Mark, and thus turns to Daniel for help.

Which of course, does not end well. Fielding began writing a third book in the series earlier this year.

Who is a bit frustrated at the world. The Birchums would expand that universe, focusing on his interactions with family and friends as he puts up with an increasingly unmanly world.

It's a character that's similar in some ways to Hank Hill, the patriarch of King of the Hill, which Altschuler and Krinsky oversaw as showrunners for several years.

Altschuler and Krinsky are also currently working on MTV's revival of Beavis and Butt-head, which comes from Hill co-creator Mike Judge.Altschuler and Krinsky's other credits include ABC's animated series The Goode Family, as well as the screenplay to Blades of Glory.

Carolla is hosting The Car Show for the Speed Channel, hosts a popular podcast and recently wrote the book In Fifty Years We'll All Be Chicks, And Other Complaints from an Angry Middle-Aged White Guy.

The Birchums is one of several animated presentations in the works at Fox; Deadline.com reported on Thursday that comedian Demetri Martin has also just sold a project to the network.

While promoting her two new flicks, The Change-Up and Cowboys and Aliens, Olivia Wilde, has been showing off her impressive sartorial skills in everything from red-hot structured sheaths to custom-made beaded creations.

But the star's flawless style tour came to a screeching halt when she turned heads for all the wrong reasons at the London premiere of Cowboys & Aliens on Thursday night.

Wilde covered up in a black polka dot printed chiffon dress by Gucci, paired with a white bow at the neck and a slim belt.

Even the side boob-revealing sheer panels and choice of bright red lipstick couldn't sex up the matronly look.

Despite the rare fashion misstep, the 27-year-old actress is having a pretty amazing week.

She was just named the new global ambassador for Revlon (along with Emma Stone) and on Monday,

Her extra-long ponytail dressed up with clear elastics, garnered tons of praise from beauty critics who loved the unique summer 'do.

Maria Bello was born on 18th April 1967 and raised in a Polish/Italian household in working class Norristown, PA, where she attended a Catholic school which did not have a theater department. In fact, acting was not even on Bello's radar until she took a drama class at Villanova University as an elective in a schedule otherwise filled with political science and pre-law courses.

In 1992, she combined her dedication to the arts with a passion for social causes that had previously informed her law career, by co-founding Harlem's Dreamyard Drama Project. The Dreamyard was a nonprofit arts and education program that paired working artists with at-risk kids, eventually giving a voice and a better chance at academic achievement to thousands of kids across the city.

She subsequently began getting better offers, playing complicated women who were typically hard-as-nails on the outside but warm and vulnerable on the inside. She went mainstream with two memorable roles in quick succession: starring as a hooker with ties to Mel Gibson in Payback.

Kevin Costner and Tommy Lee Jones in a timely examination of the lives of downsized executives, "The Company Men" (2010). Bello also had the chance to flex her comedic muscles as Kevin James' long-breastfeeding wife in the crowd-pleasing comedy "Grown Ups" with Adam Sandler and Salma Hayek.

While no additional details were immediately available, Colin Firth - Bridget Jones plays the lovably noble Mark Darcy in the hit movies -- spilled plot details to Access Hollywood guest correspondent Dave Karger last year.

I can tell you that Bridget and Mark can't have children, I think that's the way it goes on," Colin said at the time.

So then she makes the huge mistake of going back to Daniel Cleaver [played by Hugh Grant] for long enough to get pregnant.

I think he dumps her, and she's left stranded, and guess who comes back to rescue her?"

Additionally, back in March, the London Evening Standard reported that Helen Fielding (author of the wildly popular "Bridget Jones" novels on which the films are based) had begun working on a third book.

"I will be working on both the book and the film but I don't know if they are the same thing yet. It's not been decided," Helen said.

The first film, "Bridget Jones's Diary," released in 2001, grossed $281 million internationally, while 2004's sequel.

"Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason," took in $262 million, according to EW.

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.
