Beyonce
It seems like Beyonce's wish to expand her family has come true. The pop star is reportedly pregnant with her second child. Multiple sources claim Queen B and her husband Jay-Z are preparing to welcome a little one later this year.

Rumors started circulating that the singer was pregnant after she was spotted a couple of weeks ago at the Met Gala (above), wearing a Givenchy gown that strategically covered her stomach in a way that made it impossible to tell if there was a baby bump underneath.

Then there was the canceled concert. Beyonce, 31, axed a show in Antwerp, Belgium, earlier this w...

Gwyneth Paltrow
Gwyneth Paltrow has done a 180 on her comments about the Costume Institute Gala in New York.

After the event last week, where dozens of stars tried on their best punk looks, the decidedly un-punk Paltrow later called the even "un-fun" and "too crowded." She later said she probably wouldn't be back the following year.

Paltrow also called the stars in costume "a bit old to be trying to dress punk" in a radio interview. However, she is now praising the event on her website Goop.com.

She writes, "The Met Ball, at NYC's Metropolitan Museum of Art, is always the year's most elaborate display o...

Kim Kardashian
It's one of Hollywood's best kept secrets - is Kim Kardashian expecting a girl or a boy? Her baby shower invitations may hold the answer.

According to Eonline, when the boxes are opened her boyfriend Kanye West's song "Hey Mama" starts to play. How cute! (Or vomit worthy, depending on how you feel about the couple).

Many are now assuming the fancy invitations prove that Kardashian is having a girl. Plus, in April photographers snapp...

Here are the top five TiVo-ed moments from the program:

1. 9:00 pm - The very beginning of the episode shows Dwight driving in his car where he derides PBS: "The propaganda wing of Bill and Melinda Gates and (looking right at the camera) viewers like you."

Justin Bieber
German officials say Justin Bieber is facing a massive bill from an animal sanctuary for looking after his pet monkey while he was on tour.

In March, the international pop superstar was forced to hand over Mally the capuchin to customs officials in Munich, Germany after failing to secure permission to take the primate into the country.

Earlier this month it emerged Bieber has decided not to reclaim his odd pet and to allow it to be re-housed at a German zoo instead - but he is still facing a huge bill for Mally's care.

A spokesman for the customs department in Munich tells Billboard.c...
