PEOPLE: Halle Berry looks totally hot at three months pregnant (“Halle’s Joy”; Page 66). The sperminator is her boyfriend, model/Adonis Gabriel Aubry — he of the smokin’ Hugo Boss underwear ads. Combine their world-class DNA, and what do you get? We’re predicting a baby who makes Shiloh and Suri look like genetically challenged also-rans.
US WEEKLY: Crocodile hunter Steve Irwin died after a stingray attack. But his 9-year-old daughter, Bindi, lives on — and on and on — in the celebrity magazines.
First, she was promoting her Discovery Kids show, “Bindi the Jungle Girl.” Now, she’s launching an eco-friendly children’s clothing line, Bindi Wear (Page 81). The boys and girls duds are made from recycled materials, sporting epigrams such as “I AM A WILDLIFE WARRIOR.”
She helped design the clothes, natch. “I’d say, ‘I think that giraffe has too much hair!'” she says in Us, which shows the mini mogul/4th grader walking in her own fashion show last month in Las Vegas.
Next up: She will reverse global warming by the time she enters junior high.
STAR: Chicago has a lot going against it when it comes to attracting starlets and celebutantes. It’s way too cold to go out without your panties, for one thing, and the long flight to Promises is a bear when you’re hung over.
But the city makes a splash in Star this week, because Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie apparently made peace in the bar at the Peninsula Chicago hotel when they were in town recently (“Starting Over!”; cover). In a “poignant and powerful moment” at the bar — Brad drank Corona, Angie sipped rum and Coke — they decided to set aside their tiffs on where to live and how to parent. “They were … talking quietly and stroking each other’s arms. … When the lights came on they walked out of the bar hand in hand and headed up to their suite,” says one of Star’s ever-reliable sources.
NATIONAL ENQUIRER: Let’s say that more than a decade after your wedding, your best friend mentions — in public — that while she was standing at the altar as your maid of honor, she “just did not think it was going to work out.”
You’d be ticked, right? But let’s say that your best friend is Oprah Winfrey — who one year famously gave you $1 million for your birthday. How ticked can you really get? Well, it turns out Gayle King is over that $1 million thing — and she is “annoyed,” “disappointed” and “upset.”
Winfrey blurted out her revelation while she and King were being interviewed by a magazine about their long friendship. The result, says a source: “Their relationship has been tense ever since.”
Get over it, Gayle — or it could be, you know, costly.
