Milla Jovovich Writes About Her Daughter

Pregnant actress Milla Jovovich is enjoying her pregnancy so far and is finding some humor in her mom's reaction to her unborn daughter. Jovovich is expecting her fist child with director fiancé Paul W.S. Anderson in November.

Jovovich writes on her website, "I can feel her moving. That feeling is like nothing else in the world. I truly understand now how motherhood changes woment. To imagine that little body formin, to see her in my mind nestled inside me floating in her own little self-contained eco sphere makes me feel so special. Like I know some incredible secret about life that has always eluded me in the past. My little tiny baby just right there, no matter what I do or where I go, she is always right there and now I can feel her."

"I can't help but start dreaming about our future together and all the things I want to show her. I want to be there for her whenever she needs me, I want to take her all over the world and show her all the amazing places through my eyes, especially Mongolia, Peru, Nepal, places that will give her a totally different view of reality. I want her to be in yoga and martial classes from birth! I don't ever want her to know what being stiff feels like! I want to take her up into the mountains in the snow, I want her to climb pyramids and love this earth, so she can help the next generation preserve it. I want to take her to see the African national parks, show her how special this work is. How special she is to be alive in this world. I feel that once I see her, my own reality will come to a grinding halt and everything will just fall into perspective..."

She also writes about her mom's excitement to meet her granddaughter: "(My mom) feels like because my daughter will be born a Scorpio, that they are soul mates and she will be my mom's ally. She's convinced that her granddaughter will be exactly like her. It's so hilarious because of course she's implying that I am not.

"Thank goodness! She already wrote the baby a letter telling her what an incredible connection they have and how alike they are, a little wishful thinking, huh? It's too cute. I told her I was kind of jealous, I mean she never wrote me such a sweet and thoughtful letter!"

Antonio Banderas Refuses to Spoil His Kids

Antonio Banderas wants to make sure his kids with Melanie Griffith realize that the whole world isn't like Hollywood and he refuses to let them be spoiled.

He said, "I don't give them whatever they ask for. They have to earn it. I tell the kids the world is not Hollywood. I've taken them to Mexico and Argentina when I've been making movies there so they could see how kids in different countries live. They've seen the shanty towns.

"I don't want them to think that the world is just full of beautiful cars and houses and everything you want."

Banderas and Griffith have one daughter, Stella, 10. He is also stepfather to Griffith's two children Dakota, 17, and Alexander, 21.

So far it looks like his parenting style is working with Stella.

He said, "My little baby, Stella, is a straight A-plus student. I don't know where she came from because I wasn't like that at all and neither was her mother.

"She plays and is sociable but when she gets home from school, she goes to her desk and does homework. I keep telling her, 'You don't have to study.' "

Giving birth can have some wild emotional swings -- some women cry, others laugh.

Angelina Jolie found herself laughing her way though baby Shiloh's birth and Brad Pitt has some home video footage to prove it. The actress admits she couldn't stop laughing as medics performed the Caesarian surgery prior to baby daughter Shiloh's birth, and partner Brad Pitt caught her hysterics on film.

She adds, "I was on the phone with my mom, who was also in the hospital. We were laughing because we were both under the same assumed name, and we both had been given a dose of morphine."

Samantha Harris Loves Michael Stars Dresses!

The soft and comfy tees by Michael Stars have long been a celebrity must-have. Their maternity tees have been seen on stars Courteney Cox-Arquette and Jennifer Garner.

Earlier this year, Michael Stars expanded their line to include a collection of super style and comfortable dresses. Their dresses have captured all of the characteristics that have made their tees a must-have. Style, comfort, and quality combined with simple feminine silhouettes are the trademarks of the dress collection.

Over the weekend Dancing with the Stars host Samantha Harris was spotted out at the Colette Jewelry part at Republic in Los Angeles wearing the Michael Stars "Natalie" dress in Begonia. The sheer comfort of the dress transitions pefectly from a summer party dress for any stylish gal to the perfect red carpet dress for a stylish celebrity mom.

I personally snapped up one of their "Chrissy" dresses earlier this year and it has become a staple of my summer wardrobe!

Courteney Cox-Arquette Won't Work With Her Husband Ever Again

Courteney Cox decided to stay away from working with her husband David Arquette because of the extra pressure that working together would put on their marriage. The couple previously shared the screen together in the Scream trilogy, but now that they have daughter Coco she says she wouldn't ever juggle her family and professional life again.

She says, "It's just asking for trouble. If you're living with someone, it's not a good idea to place the kind of strain on your marriage that comes from being on set together for 14 hours a day. I think we hang out together enough. This way, at least one of us is home in the evening without being totally exhausted."

Rosie O'Donnell Won't Host The Price is Right

Despite making a high profile run for the job, Rosie O'Donnell says that she will not be replacing Bob Barker as host of The Price is Right.

In a video posted on her Web site, O'Donnell responds to a fan's e-mail asking: "Why is it such a problem that The Price Is Right shoots in L.A? A lot of people move their families because of a new job."

O'Donnell responds: "Here's the thing. I don't really need a job. I'm in a weird position. I don't need the money.

"I know you're not allowed to talk about money in America," she continues, "But I'm just saying I don't. So to get my entire family uprooted from their lives and move them across the country so that I can have a fantasy childhood indulgence job just doesn't seem fair."

O'Donnell, 45, and wife Kelli, 40, live outside New York City with sons Parker, 12, and Blake, 7, and daughters Chelsea, 9, and Vivi, 4.

"They all are in school, they have friends, we love their school, we love our community, our house, our life, our home," O'Donnell says of her family. "If they were able to do it in New York it would be a different story. But it looks like it ain't gonna happen."
