Kate Middleton Won't Be Making it to That 'Hobbit' Premiere

 

Hopefully Kate Middleton isn't too bummed she'll be missing out on The Hobbit's big red carpet premiere on Wednesday. Less than a week after leaving the hospital, the Duchess still requires some rest. Also in today's celeb news, Nick Cannon and Fergie both revealed intimate details about their relationships, and Lindsay Lohan is facing jail time again. More below.

Kate Middleton to Miss Hobbit Premiere
After canceling a week's worth of scheduled appearances following her hospitalization last week, it was unclear whether Kate Middleton would make it to the London red carpet premiere of The Hobbit. But unfortunately she won't have a chance to partake in the pleasures of Middle Earth on Wednesday.

The Duchess has been suffering the effects of an acute morning sickness known as Hyperemesis Gravidarum. During a weekend appearance, husband Prince William (who will be at the Hobbit premiere as scheduled) joked, "I don't know why they call it morning sickness -- they should call it all day and all night sickness. [Recovery is] a long old process but she is getting there. She feels like it is going to go on forever."

Minka Kelly Could Possibly Be Dating Wilmer Valderrama

From MLB superstar to a notorious Hollywood womanizer most recently connected to Demi Lovato, Minka Kelly looks to have found herself a new man in Wilmer Valderrama.The picture perfect brunette and Kelly have reportedly been getting real cozy together in Australia, an island nation neither celeb calls home. People reports the two went Down Under to celebrate the grand opening of Sydney's Marquee nightclub.

But don't worry, this isn't just another purely speculative piece involving questionable sources and anonymous quotes. No, they were definitely spotted strolling about Balmoral Beach. Really, there's picture proof.

Kelly, who last dated Yankees slugger Derek Jeter, hasn't commented on the rumors. But she did retweet an Instagram photo the actor posted online, and what would you know, both her and Valderrama appear in the poorly cropped shot. So clearly something's going on.

William and Kate to Open a Children's Cancer Center

Prince William and wife Kate Middleton (that's the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to us common folks) announced today that they will open a children's cancer center at the Royal Marsden Hospital. Princess Di was the former president of the London hospital, and Prince William was appointed to the position in 2007.

Wills and Kate have reportedly been quietly researching various charitable organizations in an effort to decide which cause is most near and dear to them. The royal couple will visit the center on September 29, where they will meet staff and patients and take a tour of the facility.

Kate seems to have plans for other major charitable endeavors as well. "The Duchess is using the next few months to get to get to know a number of charitable and other causes better, so she can make well-informed decisions about her future role," a palace spokesman said in a statement.

In a world filled with daily Lohan shenanigans and celebs who take themselves way too seriously, it's great to see this classy couple using their influence to help make the world a better place.

Look of the Day: Jennifer Lopez

It's official—tie-tops are back! This weekend Rihanna performed in a denim crop top and scandalous hot pants, while Jennifer Lopez filmed her new music video in a pair of high-waisted pleated shorts and a knotted chiffon blouse.

JLo's day chic ensemble was paired with two pendant necklaces and a white leather hobo bag. Stacked ivory Gucci platforms with ankle wrap straps and black piping made us take note of exactly why she is the Gillette Venus spokesmodel.

Thick highlighted waves and neutral makeup topped off the diva's subdued style. We're eager to see what show-stopping style Jennifer has in store for the next season of American Idol.

Poll of the Day: Katy Perry's Blonde Hair - Yay or Nay?

It's not clear what took her so long, but Katy Perry has finally gone blonde -- at least for the moment, anyway. So the question is: did she pull it off? 

But first, last week's poll: You may love the socialite, but the clear majority of Zimbio's readers feel Kim Kardashian has no right seeking $20 million in damages from Old Navy over their look-a-like "Super C-U-T-E" ads. Considering the reality star gets paid thousands just to Tweet and has an engagement ring worth more than a small fleet of Ferarris, we understand if it's a bit hard to sympathize with Kim. 

Back to Perry's new blonde 'do... If you religiously follow the pop star on Twitter like we do, you'd know she's been working on lightening her hair for weeks now. But it wasn't until we caught a glimpse of the California Gurl at the premiere of The Smurfs last night in NYC that we could stop and fully judge her freshly dyed locks.

This much we do know: the pop star's new hair is infinitely more appealing than her creepy, plastic doll / Disney princess look. But we'll leave it up to you to decide whether or not Perry the blonde was a good idea. 

Emma Watson Will Fall in Love with a 'Beast'

Emma Watson just can't seem to distance herself too far from Fantasy Land. The break-out Harry Potter star is set to co-headline yet another film adaptation of Beauty and the Beast according to film producer Denise Di Novi, who mentioned the project during a press junket for Crazy, Stupid, Love.

The producer says Watson will be teaming up with Pan's Labyrinth director Guillermo del Toro, which means the end result will definitely look creepy. But before Emma ever hits the set on a Beauty and the Beast project, she's still got two movies lined up for theatrical release.

First up is My Week with Marilyn where she'll play a supporting role alongside Michelle Williams who is playing Marilyn Monroe coming off her Oscar-nominated performance in Blue Valentine. Next Emma will have a central role in the film adaptation of Stephen Chbosky's popular young adult coming-of-age novel, The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

Paris Hilton and Cy Waits Break Up

Looks like Paris Hilton is single again! The reality star and her beau Cy Waits have reportedly called it quits.There was buzz last week about the two going through some rough times, and apparently it was true -- even though Cy denied it at the time. A source tells Us magazine: "They are broken up. It's sad, she cares about him a lot and thinks he's a great guy but they really hit a rough patch."

There's no crazy affair story or drama associated with the split (yet), it apparently comes down to one simple thing: Dating a reality star is tougher than it looks! "[Cy's] found it difficult to live his life with her in the spotlight and that's what caused their split. No drama, it's amicable, but things didn't work out," an insider said.

These two have been dating for about a year after getting together shortly after Ms. Hilton and Doug Reinhart split in spring 2010.

We have a feeling this isn't really the end of the road for these two, but, for now, Paris is back on the market!

Jennifer Lopez Reveals the Key to Body Confidence

Jennifer Lopez is smokin' hot at 41. The mom of 2 still flaunts her midriff, wears dresses as tight as Kim Kardashian's and even higher heels, and is an overall bombshell -- but, she doesn't always feel that way. The singer says it's easy for her, and women in general, to forget their self-worth so she has a few tricks of her own to keep feeling good about herself.

She said: “I know it’s hard for women to tap into that feeling of self-worth. We need to get the message out that you are valued, you are a goddess and don’t forget that. It’s about stopping those thoughts of negativity and insecurity. I think changing that and really recognizing yourself triggers control of how you feel, so you’re able to go, ‘No, I’m awesome man, I’m amazing, there’s nobody like me.’ I think that’s the big secret to body confidence.”

Despite her positive outlook, Jennifer admits she can’t help but worry about negative opinions and responses to her work. She told Britain’s Cosmopolitan magazine: “It’s easy to let negative stuff get to you. I’m no different to anybody else. If I’m performing for 200,000 people and there’s one person near the front row who’s not enjoying themselves, it’ll be that one person who’s going to bother me. That’s why it’s important to remember you’re special, so those messages register more than the few negative ones.”

Avril Lavigne Catches Waves Down Under

Avril Lavigne has been putting her time in Australia to good use by brushing up on her surfing skills. The "What the Hell" singer (and StyleBistro guest editor!) has been down under promoting her new album, Goodbye Lullaby, but she found time to catch a few waves today.

Avril wrote on Twitter: “Just surfed on a 4 ft wave on a 7ft board in manly OZ. My smallest board and biggest wave to date !!! I'm tired now haha. Gonna upload WTH.TV soon of me surfing :)"

A couple hours later she made good with a picture of her waiting for a wave on a lime green surfboard while wearing a baseball cap and (unbelievably) her signature dark eyeliner. She wrote: "Here is a picture of me surfing today in Australia at Manly Beach."

Avril also found time to hit Sydney's famous Taronga Zoo, where she was overjoyed to get an up-close and personal introduction to some Australian wildlife. She wrote: “Omg just went to the zoo and got to touch koala bears and kangaroos!!!!!"

Next Up for Jennifer Aniston: Directing!

Jennifer Aniston is used to being in front of the cameras, and now she's going to get another chance to make some magic behind the lens. She's slated to direct a short film about breast cancer for Lifetime's five-part anthology, Project Five.

Four other stars will also get to try the directing thing for the same project, and three of them have been named: Alicia Keys, Demi Moore, and Monster's Patty Jenkins. The fourth gal has yet to be revealed.

Jen is definitely excited about the project -- both the new gig and the film's message. "Our hope with Project Five is to entertain, inform and inspire dialogue, research and prevention. Otherwise, our goals are small," she said in a statement (via Us magazine). "We want these films to move people and empower those affected by breast cancer to stand tall through this challenge, which impacts all of our lives, no matter who we are."

This is her second time in the director's chair: She worked behind the camera on 2006's Room 10, starring Robin Wright Penn and Kris Kristofferson.  "After you get enough movies under your belt you sit back and go, 'What's next?'" she said about the gig in a past interview. "It's getting to a time where creatively I want to turn in a different direction."

Robert Pattinson Calls Justin Bieber Out on a Lie

You might think Robert Pattinson and Justin Bieber are brothers in much-beloved hair, but it appears it just isn't so.

Bieber recently told UK tabloid The People that he and Pattinson bonded at an industry party over their famous locks, saying, "One day Robert Pattinson came up to me at a party and said, 'For whatever reason, people love our hair and it's always a great ice-breaker with girls.'"

"He is like, 'Hey, my name's Robert. Want to touch my hair?' I thought he was joking, but it really works."

Now Pattinson, who is hard at work promoting his upcoming film Water for Elephants, says that encounter never happened. He told MTV (via EOnline) on Friday, "I've never met this guy. I saw that as well. I was like, 'You're really famous, man—what are you doing? You don't need to use me to make up stories!"

Maybe Bieber was just embellishing for the sake of avoiding talking about his private life. Which is something you'd think Pattinson would understand, given the constant speculation about his relationship with his Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart.
