Still haven't slept Is that Chris Brown underneath Rihanna's sheets? New Year's Instagram pic reignites rumors about pair

Smitten superstars Chris Brown and Rihanna may have rung in the new year between the sheets.
The singers both posted Instagram photos on New Year's Day showing the same black-and-white polka-dotted comforter, suggesting the pair may have spent a low-key holiday together in bed.
Good morning! Still haven't slept lol #hello2013," Rihanna wrote Tuesday.
Brown's post came an hour later - perhaps a coy way to announce to fans the on-and-off-again couple is back on for the new year.

The former couple - who first split in 2009 after Brown brutally assaulted Rihanna - was spotted together on Christmas day, at the Knicks-Lakers game at Los Angeles' Staples Center.
Brown, 23, and Rihanna, 24, have yet to publicly confirm their reconciliation, but haven't been shy about communicating on social media.
Last week, the "Diamonds" singer posted a photo of her perched on the hood of a car alongside Brown, with the message, "ThugLife #merryChristmas."

Kourtney Kardashian drops 44 pounds in six months after her second pregnancy

Kourtney Kardashian managed to drop 44 pounds in six months after the birth of her second child, but it was not easy.
"It was harder to lose weight the second time around," Kardashian said. “I gained 45 pounds with Penelope."
The 33-year-old reality television star posed in a skimpy yellow bikini beside a Miami pool Dec. 13. The picture of her tiny frame of only 106 pounds just landed on the cover of US Weekly. The magazine says that the image has not been retouched.
Kardashian attributes her rapid weight loss to fighting off the craving for large portion sizes as well as working out regularly. She danced off the weight, she says, through the cardio-heavy dance exercise routines of fitness guru Tracy Anderson.
The socialite may be flaunting her new figure for the media, but she says that her top priority is being a good mother to her children with Scott Disick, 29. She says her primary role is being there for her 6-month-old daughter, Penelope, and 3-year-old son, Mason.
"This time, the focus is really on being a mom and being present, knowing my priorities," she said.
 Kardashian will appear in “Kourtney & Kim Take Miami” with her more famous sister, Kim, who still manages to go to the gym despite the pains of pregnancy.

Jennifer Lawrence Acting is stupid'

She may be a virtual lock for an Academy Award nomination, but Jennifer Lawrence says acting “is stupid."
"Everybody's like, 'How can you remain with a level head?' And I'm like, 'Why would I ever get cocky?” the 22-year-old actress asked Vanity Fair. “I'm not saving anybody's life. There are doctors who save lives and firemen who run into burning buildings. I'm making movies. It's stupid.'"
It’s also a completely surreal profession, says the Kentucky native who was discovered as a 14-year-old tourist by a model scout in Manhattan’s Union Square. Sure the money is great after crashing the A-list with last year’s “The Hunger Games” — to which she’s currently shooting a sequel, “Catching Fire” — but there is a price to all those millions.
I call my mom sobbing all the time … dealing with the repercussions of having no more anonymity. You lose privacy," Lawrence says in the cover story for the magazine’s February issue. "As much as this is a curse, as stupid as it sounds, to make as much money as I am by doing something that I love, it's hard not to regret it when you're being chased by 15 strangers."
Lawrence says she’s still cowed by meeting her Hollywood peers.
“One time someone was introducing me to Bill Maher, and I saw Meryl Streep walk into the room, and I literally put my hand right in Bill Maher's face and said, 'Not now, Bill!,' and I just stared at Meryl Streep," Lawrence told Vanity Fair. “I just creepily stared at her.”
There are plenty of perks, however, like the intense physical training she endured to play Katniss in “The Hunger Games” that turned her into a real life action hero of sorts.
(Lawrence told The News last March she estimates she fired some 1,500 arrows during training.)
She was ready to put those skills to one day when she parked in her garage and heard strange male voices coming from her home, she told Vanity Fair.
Fetching her bow and quiver from the trunk, “I had my bow and I loaded it and I'm walking up the stairs. And I look, and my patio doors were open, and there were guys working right there, and I was like, 'Heyyy, how you doin'?'
"(My friends) were like, 'We've got to stage someone to break into your house and you can kill them!' That would be the funniest news ever. Katniss Everdeen actually kills someone with a bow and arrow!"

Former ‘Dancing with the Stars’ pro Julianne Hough says physical and mental abuse she endured as a child ‘sucked the life’ out of her

It has been a long road to recovery for Julianne Hough, who says the physical and mental abuse she sustained as a child “sucked the life” out of her.
“The light about me was gone,” the former “Dancing with the Stars” pro told Entertainment Tonight. “I was just a dark person."
The 24-year-old actress revealed her shocking history of abuse in February’s issue of Cosmopolitan.
The abuse began when she was just 10 while she was training to become a dancer in London at the world-renowned Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts.
“I was a tormented little kid who had to put on this sexy facade because that was my job and my life,” she told the magazine.
Hough told ET that she doesn’t like to speak about the ordeal and has since learned to put the past behind her.
“I had to leave that situation and kind of come into my own again, and I did,” she explained.
The young starlet continues to move forward. She’s set to star in the upcoming Nicholas Sparks flick “Safe Haven” as Katie, a woman also dealing with an abusive past.
Hough says the role was bittersweet.
“Being Katie, I relate a lot to her,” Hough said. “The fact that she had been in one situation that just sucked the life out of her – and it was a bad situation – and she needed to change and move on and kind of find her own again.
“And through that you find love and everything."

Apple tests iPhone 6 and gives sagging stock a needed boost

Apple Inc has started testing a new iPhone and the next version of its iOS software, news website The Next Web reported.
Apple shares were up 2.6 percent at $546.06 in premarket trading. The stock closed at $532.17 on the Nasdaq on Monday.
Application developers have found in their app usage logs references to a new iPhone identifier, iPhone 6.1, running iOS 7 operating system, the website reported.
Apple's iPhone 5 bears the identifiers "iPhone 5.1" and "iPhone 5.2" and is powered by iOS 6 operating system.
Developer logs show that the app requests originate from an internet address on Apple's Cupertino campus, suggesting that Apple engineers are testing compatibility for some of the popular apps, the website said.
"Although OS and device data can be faked, the unique IP footprint leading back to Apple's Cupertino campus leads us to believe this is not one of those attempts," the website said.
Apple launched iPhone 5 in September and it has been reported that the new iPhone will be released in the middle of 2013.

Miz Right New kid in town Samantha Barks scores breakout role in Les Misérables

Third place made Samantha Barks a winner.
Barks, who plays the lovelorn Éponine in the new film version of “Les Misérables,” got her break on the British reality contest show “I’d Do Anything.”
She finished third in a competition to play Nancy in a West End revival of “Oliver!” — but was launched into a musical theater career that led to her featured role in the Golden Globe-nominated film and potential Oscar contender.
In a movie that touts Anne Hathaway and Amanda Seyfried (as Fantine and Cosette), Hugh Jackman (as Jean Valjean) and Russell Crowe (as Inspector Javert), it’s the unknown Barks who turns out to be the revelation of the French Revolution poperatic drama.
Even though she played Eponine for a year in London’s West End — and for a 25th anniversary concert at London’s O2 Arena — Barks had to go through four months of auditions before she landed the role in Oscar-winner Tom Hooper’s (“The King’s Speech”) film, reportedly beating out Taylor Swift and a handful of other Hollywood starlets.
“It was a grueling audition process,” Barks tells The News. “But then, I’d never done a film.”
She learned she had won the role in “Les Miz” during a curtain call with a different stage production of “Oliver!” in Manchester. Cameras caught the young actress’ look of shock, relief and amazement.
Having played Éponine in front of live audiences for a year, Barks had no problem with Hooper’s decision to have the actors sing live for the camera, rather than prerecording vocals and lip-synching for the camera.
“It’s not like I was going into an unknown role,” she says. “The main difference in doing it for the camera is that, while you still need the same emotional scale and climax, you don’t have to heighten it to hit 2,000 seats. You can rely on the beauty of the text. You can be more real, more subtle, more intimate.”
Barks, 22, started dancing at 3. At 10, she discovered singing and acting as well, always performing in something within the comfortable confines of the Isle of Man — population 84,000 — off the British coast. “I did plays and straight acting in school during the week and sang with rock groups at the weekend,” Barks told The News.
At 16, her parents sent her to London to study professionally. “In hindsight, it was probably scary,” Barks says. “I couldn’t believe how lucky I was that my parents supported me doing it.”
When Barks was 18, she landed on “I’d Do Anything,” whose judges included composer Andrew Lloyd Webber and “Les Miz” producer Cameron Mackintosh. After coming in third on the reality show, Barks almost immediately went into a U.K. touring production of “Cabaret” for a year, before playing Nancy in an “Oliver!” tour and then Eponine.
“I wasn’t disappointed that I didn’t win,” she says. “I came third and I couldn’t believe how lucky I was to be third. I thought the whole thing was a fantastic opportunity. And I ended up playing the role, eventually, anyway. But it came around at the right time, when I was ready to play it.”
The competition, she says, helped her focus on a direction for her quickly budding career.
“I’ve found that musical theater is my passion,” she says. “I would love to have a varied career, like Hugh Jackman. He started in musical theater, then established himself in film, but he still does a lot of stage work. And he does it all beautifully.”
Jackman, a potential Oscar nominee, proved to be both mentor and role model. His work ethic in the demanding role, Barks says, was stimulating. “He’s such a hardworking person and he does it with such grace,” Barks says. “To have him as our leader was very inspiring for the whole cast.”
Barks’ turn in “Les Miz” has earned her big buzz as the film won the Christmas box office — the biggest-ever opening day for a musical.
But she says she wants to pick her next projects carefully.
“It’s a new world for me,” she says. “I want to make smart choices.”
Her dream role?
Barks laughs.
“I’d love to be a Bond girl.”

Tom Cruise took Queens native Cynthia Jorge on dream date

Tom Cruise cast a normal Queens gal in a starring role - his leading lady on a wild night on the town.
Less than six months after his divorce from Katie Holmes, the 50-year-old “Jack Reacher” star had a passionate pas-de-deux with Cynthia Jorge, a brunette Fresh Meadows native half his age, including some dirty dancing at the trendy Mulberry St. club, Le Baron, on Dec. 18.
The hookup came two days after Jorge attempted the “Mission: Impossible,” slipping her card to Cruise after a lunch at Beauty & Essex, the lower East Side restaurant she manages, according to In Touch magazine.
"He was mesmerized by Cynthia," a witness to the salsa dance interlude told In Touch, which broke the story. "She had her hair in a bun, wore tight black pants and looked gorgeous.
"At one point, they began grinding together. It was straight out of ‘Dirty Dancing.’ Tom seemed to be in his own world, completely smitten."
He wasn’t only in his own world — he was just a few subway stops from the apartment of his ex-wife Katie Holmes in nearby Chelsea.
But the head doorman at the Le Baron nightclub, who refused to give his man, doubted the dirty-dancing episode ever occurred.
"I was here all night and I didn’t see him," the doorman told the Daily News. "I read about it and I was surprised. If he was here, I would have seen him. I don’t believe it. It didn’t happen here.”
A source said the action hero and Jorge, 26, are not currently an item — and a relative of Jorge’s expressed surprise at the news of his cousin’s close encounter with the Hollywood hunk.
“I don’t know what to say. What would you say if your cousin was dating Tom Cruise?” said Pietro Jorge, 25.
He wouldn’t comment on whether the pair are in a relationship, but he did say Cruise would be the lucky one if there is: “She's nice. She's outgoing. She's a people person," he said.
Jorge’s also not seemingly ready for her closeup. After news of Jorge’s star-studded dance date went public, her bosses at Beauty & Essex asked her to stay home Wednesday night.
"She's a sweetheart,” a restaurant worker at the posh eatery told the News. “She's not working tonight. They called her off work because of (the media scrutiny)."
Jorge may not be a regular on the red carpet, but the 2008 Boston University graduate has made a name for herself in a few short years in New York City’s culinary world.
“As a New Yorker, I have learned that in order to succeed, one must work fast, strike hard and make every move count,” she wrote on her Linked In profile.
Jorge previously worked at Benvenuti Public Relations firm and as the marketing director at Benjamin’s Steakhouse in midtown.
“She was a hard worker," said a floor manager at Benjamin’s.
She told Joonbug.com six months ago that she liked her job at Benjamin’s because she enjoyed, “meeting new people, from CEOs to celebrities to just really interesting people in the industry.”
And, apparently, dating them, too.
In the topsy-turvy world of silver screen romances, it’s not uncommon for stars to connect with civilians. Indeed, Matt Damon dated and later married bartender Luciana Barroso, who he met in Miami. Nicholas Cage met his current wife Alice Kim, 21 years his junior, when she waited on him at a Los Angeles restaurant.
“We have seen this with a lot of people in Hollywood where they say, ‘Maybe it’s better if I date someone who’s not famous,’” In Touch Weekly senior editor Dorothy Cascerceri told the News.
“She’s just an average kind of girl from Queens, but she’s beautiful and Tom Cruise seems to be very taken by her.”
At the end of night, the witness said Cruise played the role of perfect gentleman, ordering a private car to whisk her home to distant Queens.
It had been a rough year off screen for Cruise, who had been reportedly blindsided and “devastated” by Holmes’ divorce filing in June - his third strike after failed marriages to Nicole Kidman and Mimi Rogers.
“Kate has filed for divorce and Tom is deeply saddened and is concentrating on his three children. Please allow them their privacy,” Cruise’s rep said in a statement to the Daily News at the time.
Then an explosive cover story surfaced in the October issue of Vanity Fair, claiming the Church of Scientology had auditioned Iranian-American actress Nazanin Boniadi to be his girlfriend before his courtship with Holmes. (Cruise vehemently denied those rumors through a rep.)
Cruise’s luck with the ladies, however, may finally be changing.
“People love these kind of stories because it gives them hope that it could happen to them. It’s like winning the lottery,” says Cascerceri.

Meet Hollywood's 'most bankable' actors

Black Swan” was the dark horse Natalie Portman rode to the top of Forbes’ Most Bankable Actors list.
Films in which Portman stars reportedly earn $42.70 for every dollar she earns on average.

With a budget of about $13 million, “Black Swan,” the critically acclaimed juggernaut, grossed $329 million worldwide.

Her roles in “No Strings Attached” and “Your Highness” were also taken into account. “No Strings Attached,” a romantic comedy with Ashton Kutcher, earned $150 million at the global box office and only cost about $25 million to produce.

“Your Highness,” on the other hand, was a veritable flop. The $50 million budget produced a movie that only grossed $25 million, failing to cover expenses. But that was not enough to topple her ranking as the actor who provides studios the best bang for the buck.
Coming in second place, Kristen Stewart is part of movies that rake in $40.60 for every dollar she is paid. Since the “Twilight” films grossed $3.3 billion worldwide, her return on investment was high.

Stewart received the same salaries as her Twilight co-stars Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner for the final films. But Pattison ranked the fourth most-bankable actor, and Lautner placed sixth.
This happened because “Snow White and the Huntsman” – which grossed $400 million with a $118 million budget – pushed her ahead to become the list’s runner-up.

Forbes assembled the rankings by comparing actors’ earnings from the magazine’s Celebrity 100 list with movie grosses and budgets from Box Office Mojo.
We looked at the last three films each actor starred in over the last three years that opened in more than 2,000 theaters, calculating the return on investment for the studios who pay his (or her) salary,” explained Forbes writer Dorothy Pomerantz, who oversees the Celebrity 100 list.

Forbes did not take into account supporting roles, so Portman’s part in “Thor,” for instance, did not come into play. Even with this money-making marvel omitted, Portman still skyrocketed to the top.

Land a starring role in 'The Great Gatsby' for only $15,000

You can  watch “The Great Gatsby” when it opens on the silver screen next year, or you can live like Fitzgerald’s greatest character with a Roaring Twenties getaway reminiscent of the fictional East Egg.
The Oheka Castle hotel on Long Island is offering a $15,000 “Romantic Evening Package” this holiday season, putting the hotel that’s located inside what was the second-largest private home in the country at your beck and call.
This Gatsby-esque one-night hotel stay in Cold Spring Harbor begins with a limo drive from anywhere in the five boroughs to the 127-room Oheka Castle, which is named from the letters in original owner Otto Hermann Kahn’s name.
Kahn, by the way, not only inspired “Gatsby” author F. Scott Fitzgerald, but also the makers of Monopoly, providing the look for the board game’s fictional capitalist, Rich Uncle Pennybags.
Upon arrival, a white-gloved butler will carry your bags to your luxury suite. Then you can take over the entire ballroom: It’s been reserved for just you and your date. If the Charleston isn’t your thing — heck, Gatsby wasn’t such a great dancer — the hotel includes a lesson and a string quartet.
Follow that up with a dozen roses and a seven-course menu designed in consultation with your private chef.
You also get a personal photographer to record it all.
Long Island was home to more than a thousand such castles in America’s Gilded Age — six are now open to the public. Kahn’s summer home on 443 acres cost $11 million a hundred years ago. That would be roughly $110 million by today’s standards.
Original plans were found and checked for historical accuracy. Slate roof tiles were cut from the same Vermont quarry that formed the original ones. More than 250 windows and doors were replaced.
Oheka again has eight reflecting pools and three fountains. No wonder it’s a popular wedding and event venue and has been home to countless movie and advertising shoots.
The USA Network’s show “Royal Pains” filmed there, too.
Oheka fell into disrepair after Kahn’s death in 1934, becoming a summer retreat for New York City sanitation workers, a training school for the Merchant Marines and a military academy. Abandoned in the 1970s, vandals stripped the plumbing, plundered ornate chandeliers and even stole most of the 39 gigantic fireplaces right from the walls.
In 1984, Gary Melius bought the shell of the glorious estate and 23 acres around it for $1.5 million.
He restored the mansion and gardens to grandeur, investing $30 million in the painstaking process.
 If the Jay Gatz-like price of $15,000 a night is out of reach, old sport, you can still visit Oheka, where $25 guided tours are offered every day.

Jennifer Aniston shows off bikini body that looks like a Christmas miracle during holiday with fiance Justin Theroux

Jennifer Aniston’s fiance received the perfect Christmas gift — the chance to spend the holiday on the beach staring at the love of his life in a itsy-bitsy hot pink bikini.
The star turned heads in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico with the love of her life, Justin Theroux, lounging at her side.
Theroux, 41, didn’t look so bad himself, showing off his washboard abs and full-back Asian tatto.
There have been rumors circulating in the glossy gossip tabloids that the 43-year-old actress was pregnant, but Aniston showed no sign of a baby bump Monday.
Cabo San Lucas’ high-end resort community has become a winter wonderland for many celebrities during Christmas week. George Clooney and girlfriend Stacy Keibler also opted for sunnshine over sleigh bells, according to gossip site TMZ.com.
Aniston and Theroux have been one of Hollywood’s hottest couples since they met on the set of this summer’s “Wanderlust.” The screenwriter behind “Tropic Thunder” proposed to his girlfriend on Aug. 10, his birthday, during a dinner at Greenwhich Village eatery Blue Hill.
“Everyone is really excited for them," the source told People magazine at the time. "It's amazing to see how happy Justin makes Jen, and everyone was always hoping that he would propose."

Bar Refaeli has taken her lingerie modeling talents to new heights or, in this case, to the North Pole.
In the Victoria's Secret model's latest commercial, the 27-year-old Israeli model dressed up as Santa Claus and took to the streets of New York before slowly stripping down to her skivvies.
Her strip starts when she returns home: First she pulls off her Santa beard as she walks into her building then her Santa hat when she's inside her apartment. Then it's her Santa boots and finally her baggy Santa pants as an amused man from across the street eyes her holding an Under.Me box through his apartment window.
The commercial closes after she slips on her new Under.Me lingerie, struts across her apartment and lies down in her bed, winking to the camera before Under.Me presents its 20% off Special Christmas Edition deal.
