ICYMI, the Jolie-Pitt twins — a boy and a girl Knox and Vivienne — were born Saturday in Nice, France. While we've yet to see any members of the now eight person family, both Christian Estrosi, the mayor of Nice and Dr. Michel Sussmann, who performed the C section, are more than happy to talk. The mayor visited the hospital to officially sign the twin's birth certificates, telling the press that it is "a pride to Nice and all its citizens." In a press conference Dr. Sussmann described the birth:
On the birth: "[Angelina and Brad] were talking, they were together...It was an epidural, so [Angelina] was awake and speaking and laughing. They were happy."
On Brad's role: "He was my assistant!" Sussmann said jokingly – and even cut the babies' umbilical cords. "He was ... perfectly calm, totally determined, very pleased to be at the birth of his children, very moved and very emotional."
On when Angelina will go home: "I don't know...She will stay for a few days. You know, in Europe it isn't like in the United States, where the patients go home after three days. They will stay a bit longer until everything is okay."
On the babies overall: "The babies are fine. The babies are with the mother and father and they are fine." Asked whether the birth had been a textbook delivery, Sussmann replied, "absolutely no problems."
Needless to say, we can't wait to see little Knox and Vivienne, but we're happy to hear that it all went well welcoming the two new Jolie-Pitts into the world!
Heidi and Spencer put their guns down long enough to show off their twin style at a launch event for A. Tiziano in LA on Friday. Heidi didn't look like her usual cheery self, but maybe it's just because the aspiring fashion plate would rather be wearing something a little fancier than a baseball cap. Regardless, it looks like the designer has found two new sponsors whether or not there are tons of people out there who want to dress just like Heidi and Spencer.
Blake Lively and Penn Badgley had another night out, grabbing some delicious dessert at Serendipity III in NYC before heading home on Thursday. We're all for life imitating art when it comes to celebrity relationships, but sometimes it can be a little too much. What do you think of Blake and Penn together — cute or annoying?
Ryan Phillippe and Abbie Cornish put on their matching hats and grabbed their matching Starbucks to run errands around LA on Friday. Thankfully Abbie was looking cute again after a couple questionable dresses, though it's a little hard to see her face underneath the brim of her hat. These two have been sitting pretty in Ryan's new digs enjoying a relaxing Summer so far and now that his kids are overseas with Reese, it's all about romantic one on one time for this newly public couple.
Josh Hartnett enjoyed a champagne lunch in NYC on Friday, thanks to his gig as the face of Emporio Armani Diamonds for Men. We already know that Mr. Hartnett is more than just a pretty face, and he's been busy making time for both Armani and his new movie, August. Keeping a balance isn't anything new to Josh, who recently said, “I am incredibly ambitious, but I think my ambitions lie some in work and some in my personal life, you know? I kind of try and work hard at both. I work hard at playing hard sometimes.” A few drinks with a business lunch seem like a good step in that direction.
Rihanna bundled up for her appearance on The Late Show and looked perfectly chic while waving to her New York fans. She kept things simple in all black but mixed patterns and textures to create a unique look.
