The News That's Everywhere - Kate and Wills

And it's done, 5 short months after the announcement of their engagement, Kate and William are married. I know there were mixed emotions about it, some people cared, some people didn't, others just moaned about the money spent on it.
I love a good wedding, and what could be better than a Royal one? And it didn't disappoint. The Abbey looked amazing, William looked so smart on his arrival with Harry, who was my favourite of the day, especially when he nearly cracked up during the ceremony.

Almost more exciting than the actual wedding ceremony, is the arrival of the guests and the family, mostly to see what and who everyone is wearing. Queen Elizabeth looked eye catching as ever in bright sunshine yellow, the bride's mother was very simple, very understated, but beautiful in pale blue, and Camilla was stylish in champagne.

On a celeb note, Victoria Beckham was the one I wanted to see, and she looked as stylish as always, in amazing 6 inch Laboutins.

Other notable guests included Elton John and his partner David Furnish, Ben Fogle, long time friend of the groom, Joss Stone, who performed at the Diana memorial concert, as well as socialite and Royal friend, Tara Palmer Tomkinson

Kate's sister Pippa, who was also her maid of honour, looked beautiful in a white dress also designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen, who, it was finally revealed as Kate emerged from her car at Westminster Abbey, had designed the bridal gown. The back of Pippa's dress was the prettiest part, with little buttons all the way down the spine.

All of this paled into insignificance as soon as the future Princess arrived though. I know some people weren't fans of the dress, but I think on the whole, it's agreed that she made a fantastic choice.

So beautiful, so classic, and it flattered her slim figure perfectly, she couldn't have looked better. William obviously thought the same, mouthing 'You look beautiful' to her at the altar.

Almost stealing the show from the balcony kiss, was the tiny little grumpy flowergirl, how amazing is she? So cute.
My second favourite part of the whole day? The couple leaving the Palace in Prince Charles' old Aston Martin, Wills driving them, complete with balloon, a Just Wed licence plate, and a Learner sign on the front. I can't help it, I love them.
Whatever anyone else's view was of today, I for one loved it. It was everything a royal fairytale wedding should be and seemed so much more genuine than Charles and Diana's 30 years ago. There's no doubt that Catherine and William are completely in love, and long may it last.

One Step Closer To Global Domination

They're at it again, or so the Hollywood gossip mills would have us believe.
Apparently Brad and Angelina are planning on adding to their ever growing brood yet again, this time, with a little girl from Mexico.
Rumours started when Angelina recently added a seventh line to her tattoo that shows all the coordinates of her children's birthplaces. After visiting orphanages in Peru and Mexico, the couple settled on the girl in Mexico, who was born last year.

It has been said that they will introduce their newest addition at the Cannes Film Festival next month.
Brad and Angelina have definitely worked on building their family since they got together 6 years ago, and have 6 children so far: Maddox, from Cambodia; Zahara, from Ethiopia, Vietnamese born Pax, and biological children Shiloh, Knox and Viviene.

Kimberly Stewart's Expecting...

And the father is none other than the Wolfman himself, Benicio Del Toro.

I'm not sure why I find their pairing so odd, in fact their entire relationship passed by without me even noticing. If there even was one, were they properly together or was it a ships passing in the night sort of thing?

Either way, although they're no longer together, Benicio has said he will be supportive and play an active role in the child's life. Glad to hear it, as so many men would not do the same thing. I won't mention any names of course, but let's just say Stewart was lucky it's Del Toro, rather than one of her ex's.

This is the first child for both Kimberly and Benicio, and will be the first grandchild for Rod Stewart, who welcomed his eighth child into the world earlier this year.

Neil Gaiman in The Simpsons

I'm not ashamed to admit I have a huge soft spot for Neil Gaiman. I love his books, although I haven't read every single one (i'm getting there, they're on the list), I follow him on Twitter, as well as his awesome wife Amanda Palmer, as their banter is some of the most entertaining on there, especially when Kevin Smith gets involved too.
I'm also a fan of The Simpsons, who isn't really? So it was double happy news day for me when I found out that Neil Gaiman is appearing an upcoming episode of the long running series. He will play a version of himself, although with an American accent, rather than his usual British one.

Website geeksofdoom.com reported that Gaiman revealed a teaser sketch at the end of his time at the Doctor Who panel at WonderCon 2011, where he talked about writing an episode for the new season.

Gaiman has also been in China recently, and what he was up to there has finally been uncovered. He's writing a screenplay adaptation for the classic Chinese novel, Journey To The West, which they're planning on making into a series of big budget 3D films, following the template of Peter Jackson's Lord of The Rings Trilogy.

Along with all that, Neil is also planning on writing his own non-fiction work on China, having visited the country numerous times over the past few years.
