We know that it can be hard to keep up with what’s happening in the land of Hollywood. That’s why we’ve gathered this week’s best in one oh-so-convenient location for you. Make yourself a cup of tea, put your feet up and enjoy.
1. Beyonce has spoken about her miscarriage for the first time, describing it as “the saddest thing” she’s ever been through.
“About two years ago, I was pregnant for the first time,” the pop star, 31, reveals in an upcoming HBO documentary about her life, called Life is But a Dream.
“And I heard the heartbeat, which was the most beautiful music I ever heard in my life. I picked out names. I envisioned what my child would look like . . . I was feeling very maternal.”
Beyonce lost the baby in the early stages of her pregnancy, receiving the heartbreaking news during a check-up in New York. The former Destiny’s Child star says she found solace in songwriting.
“I went into the studio and wrote the saddest song I’ve ever written in my life … it was the best form of therapy for me.”
Beyonce and her husband, rapper Jay-Z, 43, are now parents to one-year-old Blue Ivy. While this is the first time Beyonce has publicly spoken of the miscarriage, Jay-Z made a reference to it in his track ‘Glory’, which was recorded within days of Blue’s birth in January 2012.
2. Nicole Kidman has admitted to experimenting with botox. And has explained that she has since sworn off the treatment because she likes being able to actually move her face.
The 45-year-old’s uncreased face has been the target of media speculation for years. Yet Kidman has always insisted her appearance was ‘all natural’, crediting sunscreen for her lack of wrinkles. In a 2008 interview, she flatly denied having used facial treatments, saying “I have nothing in my face or anything.”
Despite the botox, Kidman says she really is “completely natural” now. “I wear sunscreen. I don’t smoke, and I take care of myself. And I’m proud to say that. Anybody can do anything to themselves; I don’t judge,” Kidman said.
Take a look at how the actress has changed over the years:
4. Hollywood heavyweights Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Stewart and Marion Cotillard have posed without makeup for W Magazine. Bravo, ladies.
W’s annual Best Performances February issue features some of the best actors and actresses in Hollywood at the moment – but instead of presenting them in typical glitz and glamour, photographer Juergen Teller has captured the stars in their natural state. They are all sans make-up, looking natural and un-groomed. Cotillard is even photographed having just stepped out of the shower, wearing nothing but a towel.

5. OMG! Dolls that give birth. You have to see these to believe them (but not while there are kids in the room or even while you are at work).
The pop star, 24, has discussed her heavily scrutinised relationship in the latest issue of Rolling Stone, confirming she is back together with her 23-year-old boyfriend Chris Brown.
“I decided it was more important for me to be happy,” Rihanna told the magazine. “I wasn’t going to let anybody’s opinion get in the way of that. Even if it’s a mistake, it’s mymistake.”
The couple made headlines worldwide in 2009, when Chris brutally assaulted Rihanna and a photo of her battered face was published online. Chris remains on probation after pleading guilty to assault and performing community service.
Rihanna insists that the relationship is “different” now and that the pair value one another and don’t have “those types of arguments” any more.
“He doesn’t have the luxury of f*cking up again. That’s just not an option … He made a mistake, and he’s paid his dues … sometimes people need support and encouragement, instead of ridicule and criticism and bashing,” she said.

9. Australian actress Rebel Wilson has designed a line of t-shirts, ranging in size from “12 to beautimous”. Love.
“The shirts are just a little experiment – I had a dream I created them, and so I felt like I had to do it!!” Wilson tweeted.
The two t-shirt designs, were part of Wilson’s Fat Mandi collection, cost $20 each and feature cupcake and doughnut motifs across the bust. Delicious.
The shirts are available in sizes 12 to 18 (or size “beautimous”, in Rebel’s words).
And if you’re wondering, the shirts have a specific purpose: “They are excellent T’s for horizontal running or just bludging on the couch,” Wilson explained on Twitter.
Just because she’s so awesome, here’s a whole gallery dedicated to Rebel.
