Jennifer Lopez is one of the hardest workers in show business, what with all her acting, singing, dancing and designing, but we also know that these days she's all about her privacy as an expecting mom. That doesn't mean she won't sit down for a high profile interview, like this one with Harper's Bazaar. She gushed about her 8th fragrance, Deseo, Marc and that battle of love vs. money. Here's more:
On her work: "Being an artist is about baring your soul. If you're not doing that, you're not creating anything worth anything. I always see myself as a performer first, so I will always want to make music, act in movies, even onstage."
On working for love, not money: "I've been lucky that because of what I do as a performer, I've also been able to do stuff like fragrances that I love. I'll never look at it as a money thing. I'll always look at it as a creative outlet."
On her husband Marc: "Marc is a really private person, and he's been singing onstage since he was really young. He made me realize you can be an artist, and have credibility and success, without your life being on public display 24 hours a day."
It is true that we see less of J Lo these days, but it's a welcome break after those years of seeing the ups and downs of Diddy, Ben Affleck and Jenny from the Block. Now we're settled in to sit tight and wait to see J Lo the mama.

Johnny Depp, your four-years running People's Choice Favorite Male Movie Star, showed off that chest that makes the ladies swoon on the cover of Rolling Stone. In the magazine, the topic at hand is his musical career rather than acting, since he made such a splash showing off his pipes in Sweeney Todd. Plus, he's been playing the guitar since he was a kid. Here are highlights:
How did listening to music become making music?
When I was twelve, I talked my mom into picking up a Decca electric guitar for me for twenty-five dollars. It had a little blue plush amp. And then, this is horrible, the first thing I did was steal a Mel Bay chord book. I went to this store, stuffed it down my pants and walked out. It had pictures — that's why I needed it so badly, because it was immediate gratification. If I could match those photographs, then I was golden. I conquered it in days. I locked the bedroom door, didn't leave, and taught myself how to play chords. I started learning songs by ear.

Looking Back: Golden Globe's Best-Dressed Ladies Since the writers' strike is putting a damper on the Golden Globe's red carpet (sniff), I thought it would be fun to go back and reminisce about the best-dressed ladies of the Globe's red carpet. I selected a few obvious and some not-so-obvious picks. They run the gamut from long to short, bright to dim, dramatic to simple.
Josh Duhamel showed off his adorable smile at Improv Comedy Club in LA yesterday. Looks like that Cabo sunburn has transitioned into a nice bronze and we'll give him bonus points for trading in his silly beach hat. Fergie wasn't around to join in on all the comedic fun, but maybe she wasn't in the mood for fun after landing in the top 5 of Blackwell's worst dressed list. Luckily she has hottie Josh to help cheer up.
Kate Moss was all smiles leaving the SingStar Take That Extravaganza in London. She took a casual approach to the night, opting for patent leather flats and mixed-matched blacks.
