They are some of Hollywood’s cutest and best-known kids – and here’s how a forensic artist predicts these celebrity offspring will look in 10 years’ time.
The forensic artist used sophisticated age-progression computer technology to see how tots including Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, her adopted sister Zahara and Tom Cruise’s daughter Suri could look as they grow up.
Singer Gwen Stefani’s son Kingston Rossdale and the latest addition to the Kardashian clan, Kourtney’s baby son Mason Dash Disick, were also age-progressed to give a glimpse into the future.
The signature features of the children’s famous parents were also taken into account in creating the images.
Shiloh, who will be 13, is set to inherit her mum Angelina Jolie’s full lips and high cheekbones.
Adopted Zaraha will be blossoming into a young woman at 15, while blue-eyed Suri will be turning 13.
Blonde-haired Kingston, whose dad is Brit rocker Gavin Rossdale, will also be entering his teens.
Baby Mason is set to be a real mummy’s boy at the age of 10, with the same olive skin and deep brown eyes as mum Kourtney and aunt Kim Kardashian.
It seems the drummer from Blink182 didn’t have himself too neat a Sunday as he got in a confrontation with some paparazzi who he claims threatened him and his children. This is part of what Travis Barker related on his twitter about the whole mess: “When I’m out at breakfast at 8am in the morning the last thing i appreciate is some photographer threatening me 2 a fight while he’s 3 deep When i defend myself/my kids that don’t make me a tough guy .I was outnumbered and threatened so i did what any man would. Paparazzi cried like young girls when it was no longer 3 of them against me and my kids. Didn’t they remember threatening me an hr ago??” The damned things do have a tendency to become violent when in herds, but Travis Barker discovered for himself that they can be scattered very easily if you show them what you’re made of. Hopefully he will insist that this information be included in the police report since it will prove invaluable in the trial that is to come.
The march of a toddler was the inspiration for the Red Queen, a part played by Helena Bonham Carter in Alice Wonderland.
Bonham Carter, 43, said she modelled the character on her two-year-old, Nell. “I thought, well, she’s a toddler, because she’s got the big head, she’s a tyrant – a toddler tyrant, toddlers are tyrants. The no sympathy for any other living creature – that’s our toddler, in fact. No empathy, just commands. She just bosses us around – dictatorship. No please, no thank you. ‘Mummy come here’, ‘Mummy go’, ‘Mummy! Watch telly.”
Bonham Carter, who is married to the film’s director Tim Burton, added:”And another toddler quality – it’s all about me, it’s all about her, never considers us, ask, ask, ask. So the toddler thing was a big inspiration.”
In Burton’s interpretation of the Lewis Carroll tale, a 19-year-old Alice returns to Wonderland to find it is under the rule of the Red Queen. The flick was set to premiere in London’s Leicester Square on Thursday night.
George Clooney put the kibosh on reports he is selling his Lake Como villa in Italy.
The Up in the Air star has come crashing down on the rumour that buzzing paparazzi were forcing him to sell. The word was that Clooney had already moved to a new home on Lake Iseo’s Loreto Island.
But the actor, 48, issued a statement saying: “To complete the news cycle: I am not buying an island and am not selling my house in Italy. The story was made up, then picked up and now denied. End of another riveting day of false news.”
Clooney is dating Elisabetta Canalis, an MTV News presenter in Italy.
American actress Lisa Rinna has revealed her nanny is looking after Charlie Sheen’s baby sons.
Sheen, 44, and his wife Brooke, 32, are both currently in rehab and Rinna, 46, revealed that their 11-month-old twin sons Bob and Max are being cared for by her former nanny.
She said on Twitter: “Good news is the sheen babies r being well taken care of by our beloved nanny that was with us for 6 yrs she is a god send.”
Rinna and hubby Harry Hamlin are parents to two daughters – Delilah, 11, and Amelia, eight.
A rep recently told UsMagazine.com that Sheen has ‘entered a rehabilitation facility’ as a ‘preventative measure’.
Brooke was reportedly recently moved from rehab The Canyon in Malibu to an ‘undisclosed facility’.
A leading Irish fashion designer lashed out at celebrities using their names to jump to the top of the rag trade.
Paul Costelloe told the media at his opening show at London’s Fashion Week that celebrities should be content with their luxury lifestyles.
“I object to celebrities sticking their toe in and stepping out again, like Victoria Beckham and Sienna Miller’s sister – they’ll be here for a couple of seasons and then they’re off, and we’re still hanging around,” he said.
He particularly targeted Beckham, whose fashion credentials are solid, compared to other design-by-association celebs. But Costelloe went in for the kill.
“She (Beckham) should be happy enough living with David Beckham – or maybe not, but stop competing with us struggling fashion designers,” he said.
Victoria Beckham, a former Spice Girl, has earned kudos since launching her label.
Other celebs have picked up her designs, which have an authentic Victoria Beckham look. Her fourth collection, shown during New York Fashion Week, was well received.
Model Kate Moss broke down in tears as her Alexander McQueen dress was sold for £100,000 at a charity auction.
Earlier in the evening Moss, 36, had strutted down the catwalk wearing the short printed dress at the Fashion For Relief Haiti charity show at Somerset House in London.
The dress was designed by Moss’s close friend McQueen, who was recently found hanged in his London apartment.
It then went up for auction but as her friend and Topshop boss Sir Philip Green got the final bid of £100,000, she started crying and was consoled by friend Annabelle Neilson.
Sandra Bullock’s Oscar nomination has left her feeling like she has reached all her personal peaks.
She told reporters at the Academy Awards Nominees Luncheon: “It scares me more than anything, because you think, ‘What do I do now? What do I do now that I don’t step backwards – I step forward.’ I’ve been thinking a lot about that – what do I do next? I feel like because of this honour and what I’ve been given these last couple of months, I really have an obligation not to step back even the smallest bit.”
Bullock, 45, who was just awarded a Golden Globe and a SAG for The Blind Side, is up for Best Actress at this year’s Academy Awards to be held in the heart of Hollywood on March 7. She vowed to not step backwards and told the luncheon she hoped to work hard for 10 or 15 more years.
She said: “I know I work very hard. But just because I work hard doesn’t mean the elements come together to make a good performance or a good film. So when all that happens and all those elements do come together, I’m always shocked and so happy and amazed. It’s always unexpected to me because I expect to fail – and that’s why I work even harder.”
Bullock also revealed her motto for success. “I had a little Post-it by the side of my bed for many years that said, ‘Expect as good as you give’. And that’s really been helpful. You either step up your game or expect others to match your level, so that’s a good one, I think.”
