Kelly! Happy Birthday with love from Mags!

Congratulations are in order for Kimora Lee Simmons and Tim Leissner.

The model-entrepreneur, 39, and her financier husband, 45, have welcomed their first child together – son Wolfe Lee Leissner – PEOPLE reports.

“We are filled with joy, adoration and gratitude as we celebrate the birth of our son,” the proud parents gush in a statement.

No further information – including the baby’s birth date – has been announced at this time.

Mom and baby are doing well, and Leissner is “ecstatic,” according to the rep.

Simmons is already mom to daughters Ming, 15, and Aoki, 12, with ex-husband Russell Simmons, as well as 5½-year-old son Kenzo with Djimon Hounsou. Also, Leissner is dad to two daughters, ages 9 and 12, from a previous relationship.

Zayn Malik has been laying low for a few good weeks. My daughter asks daily whether Zayn has returned to One Direction, and she’s always disappointed at the answer. Media coverage tells me that Zayn doesn’t regret quitting the band and immediately starting his solo career. It will be okay, despite what millions of heartbroken tweens still feel at this moment.

The future of Zayn’s musical career is still unknown. His personal life, on the other hand, is on the up and up. Zayn has dated singer Perrie Edwards (of Little Mix) since late 2011. Despite a cheating scandal and continued rumors, their 2-year engagement is still going full force. He’s 22, and she’s 21. What could go wrong? A new report says Zayn and Perrie are very serious about getting married this summer. Granted, the source (Heat magazine, via the Irish Mirror) isn’t the greatest, but they’ve gathered up a number of breadcrumbs that point towrads a June wedding …. at Disneyland Paris. Here are the clues:

1. Zayn’s sister Safaa shared a picture of Perrie in a wedding dress which was captioned “Cinderella #loveweddings”

2. Perrie surprised Zayn with a trip to Disneyland Paris for his 21 birthday in 2014- the pair have never looked happier in pictures.

3. Pictures linked to Liam Payne’s girlfriend Sophia Smith showed Perrie standing in front of a carriage – just like Cinderella’s AND a bunch of cream invites.

4. Perrie’s best mate Katherine Spires told a Little Mix fans that she was going to Disneyland in June

5. The Little Mix singer LOVES Disney – just recently a picture of Perrie, Trisha and Zayn’s sisters Doniya, 22, Waliyha, 16 and Safaa, 12, was circulated on Twitter with the suggestion that they had watched Disney movie Cinderella in VIP seats at a Vue cinema.

6. Everyone wants them to have a happy ever after – a source said. An insider says, “Perrie is a huge Disney fan. So what better way for Zayn’s family to support her and encourage her to press on with wedding plans, than reminding her of her favourite fairytale. The family are hell-bent on Perrie and Zayn having their own happy ever after.”

[From Irish Mirror]

All of this could be fanfiction because all of the alleged Instagram evidence has been erased. But it could be true. I think that Perrie is eager to tie down this marriage for whatever reason. She seems to be in denial over Zayn’s cheating, and he’s now a free agent (in search of an anchor) after leaving One Direction. If they get married, it will never last more than a few years. They’re both internationally famous pop stars and so young. I also agree with Gawker when they say getting married at Disneyland is a sign that you’re not ready for marriage.

P.S. Here’s the first official 1D photo without Zayn.

I’m in love. WITH THIS COAT. This coat is amazing, right? It’s Armani. It looks like Game of Thrones-meets-Star Trek. I don’t even want to look up the price. Don’t even tell me, I’m sure it’s thousands of dollars. Anyway, Cate Blanchett covers the new issue of Harper’s Bazaar Australia. It’s a great cover because A) Cate actually looks like herself and not some Elizabeth Banks fem-bot, B) the coat and C) Cate looks sassy. In the Bazaar interview, Cate talks a bit about the #AskHerMore campaign, which was introduced during this past awards season. I’ll rant about it after we read Cate’s thoughts:

Cate on the way the red carpet has changed: “Since I’ve been struttin’ the red carpet, things have changed a lot. The way women are asked about those red-carpet moments. Oh my God. It’s just a dress! People forget the fact that women are up there [at the Academy Awards] because they’ve given extraordinary performances. It’s a wonderful excuse to dress up and have F.U.N. But let’s not forget the work.”

On E!’s now-defunct mani-cam: “Next it will be, ‘What brand tampon are you wearing? How much more intimate can they get? ‘Show us your knickers’? There is a line.”

[From Bazaar Australia via TooFab]

I ranted about #AskHerMore during the Oscars recap this year and I’ll do it again here. I think it’s fine for a woman on the red carpet to refuse to answer certain questions or to hit back and say “Are you asking the men the same thing?” Do some red carpet interviewers cross the line into sexism? Sure. It’s not acceptable to ask an actress to “twirl”. But having watched the red carpet shows recreationally and professionally for years, I tend to think most of the red carpet interviewers are just trying to create interesting, watchable moments in between ID-ing the dresses. Most will just get the dress ID out of the way quickly (and believe me, the actresses are trained at this point to list all of their IDs at the top of the interview) and then ask some fun questions.

I also think that the Oscars are a HUGE international deal that can make or break designers, and millions of dollars are on the line every time an actress walks on a red carpet that significant. Most of those actresses are wearing borrowed clothes and borrowed jewelry too – part of the now-standard give-and-take system, where the celebrities get to keep or borrow thousands of dollars’ worth of clothes and jewelry because it’s worth millions’ in advertising for the designers/jewelers when the actress says “This dress is Armani, the jewels are Neil Lane.” If you don’t want to be part of that, fine. No one is forcing you to walk the red carpet!

Oh, and having watched hundreds of hours of red carpet coverage, let me tell you: there’s nothing that ruins a fun night more than an actor who wants to give a ten-minute lecture on their “process” in the middle of the red carpet. The red carpet is not Inside the Actor’s Studio. Lighten up and have some fun. But I take Cate’s point. The next time she comes onto the red carpet and says her gown is Galliano (like at the Oscars this year), ask her about Galliano’s hate speech conviction and whether wearing his clothing is her way of implicitly aligning herself with anti-Semitic hate speech. Then ask her about Woody Allen and the accusations made by Dylan Farrow. I mean, she wants to talk about something deeper, so let’s go deeper.

Tracy Anderson covers the new issue of Health magazine. The interview is made of lies. Too harsh? Perhaps. It just feels like Tracy has a sketchy relationship with the truth and what she really does (and has done in the past) to keep herself “in shape.” She’s also a close-minded fraud and a shade-throwing, name-dropping starf—ker. How’s that for harsh? Anyway, Tracy talks to Health Mag about the “disease” of vanity (ARE YOU JOKING), name-dropping more celebrity clients, and how she used to love to dip cookies in icing before Gwyneth Paltrow told her that only peasants eat cookies.

The fad that’s hurting women: “One hundred percent: It’s called celebrity. We should love their work. But to blow up their importance to the level of obsession takes away from our own beauty and our own gifts. There’s a disease here—the disease is vanity, insecurity and the lengths of unhealthy behaviors people go to to achieve what they think is beautiful. The disease of ‘I’m not worth anything unless I look like that person over there.’”

The change in women’s bodies: “I think it’s changing, and that excites me. You take a Kim Kardashian, who is a curvaceous, voluptuous, petite woman—and she’s on the cover of Vogue! I like that. I think that’s progress. Lena Dunham, who is a buddy of mine, is on the cover selling magazines with her beauty and her light.”

She’s not all about giving women the same body: “I want to get away from ‘Tracy Anderson is going to make you teeny-tiny.’ I’m not trying to make everyone the same. To me, ‘hot’ is not defined by a height or weight or measurement; hot is going to the root of who you are.”

Cookies with icing: “It involves Gwyneth. I was so good at designing bodies, including my own, that I could eat a pizza and a tub of ice cream every day and you wouldn’t see it; it was like a free card to eat whatever I wanted. And I was in London, dunking cookies in frosting. And she looked at me and was like, ‘What are you doing?’ And I was like, ‘What do you mean? It’s so good!’ And she’s like, ‘Do you know how toxic that is?’ I said, ‘Yes.’ And she’s like, ‘And you’re still eating it.’ I was like, ‘You know what? She’s so right.’ That was almost nine years ago. That was the last cookie dunked in frosting I ever had.”

Creating her method: “… It was very apparent to me that being a ballerina wasn’t going to happen. But I’ve always been, like, ‘Welp, there’s a different purpose for me. There is something else I’m supposed to be doing.’ Then at 21, I gained 60 pounds while pregnant with my son, and that’s when I started creating my method.”

She really hates juice cleanses: “Anybody is going to lose weight if they drink liquid all day long. That’s like lunchtime liposuction or freezing the fat cells off. You don’t own that change. The weight is coming back.”

[From Health]

The only consistency here is that she’s always hated juice cleanses. Seriously, she’s always said that juice cleanses are stupid if your aim is weight loss (and I tend to agree with her on that and that alone). Her talk about needing more diversity in the body types represented in the media is not really consistent though. She’s been talking about that, on and off, for a few years (like when she took Kim Kardashian on as a client), but she always shoots herself in the foot by publicly criticizing the “problem areas” or “disaster bodies” of various women who dare to not fulfill their size-2 glory. As for her comments about “the disease of vanity” – bitch, you’re the one taking on beautiful celebrity clients and telling them that they need to lose weight to look more like [fill in the blank].

CB also pointed out that Tracy’s cookie-and-icing story has changed over the years – Tracy told the story back in 2009, back when she was partnered up with Madonna (before Madonna had a falling out with both Tracy and Gwyneth). In Tracy’s original story, Madonna witnessed Tracy eating cookies dipped in icing and Madonna called Gwyneth. This is the quote from Tracy’s Hello interview in 2009: “Madonna called Gwyneth and said, ‘I am sitting here with Tracy and she is dipping Oreos into Pillsbury icing,’ and Gwyneth was like, ‘Please, Tracy, nothing processed.’ So I have cut out processed but I will not deny my sweet tooth.’” So why didn’t Tracy mention Madonna this time around? Perhaps because of Tracy’s old relationship with the guy who defrauded Madonna’s Malawi charity?

What will it take for Kim Kardashian to wear the correct size? I feel like we should take up a collection to get her some comfortable t-shirts in a medium-to-large. Here are some assorted photos of Kim and North arriving in Paris, plus photos of Kim and Kanye out and about in Paris. Kim was wandering around in what was basically a too-small bra. Ugh. Her face is even more cat-like these days too.

Meanwhile, Kim is giving interviews to promote the Kardashian Kids’ Collection AND her book of selfies. She did a “Day In the Life” piece with Harper’s Bazaar which came out yesterday – you can read the full piece here. I learned some stuff about Kim’s life, which surprised me. Some highlights/interesting factoids:

Sleeping arrangements: She wakes up at 6:00 A.M. and she sleeps “with my Blackberry, my iPhone, and the baby monitor next to my bed, and at first I can hardly see the screens because they’re so bright and my room is so dark. I check the monitor, and then I kind of squint on eye and look at e-mails. I don’t respond to them right away; I scroll through. The first person I talk to is Kanye because he’s right there next to me in bed. I’ll say, “Do you want to go for a run?” And he usually does. Or he won’t because he has a workout, so we’ll just talk about that, then kisses.

She runs nearly every day? She says when she gets up, she checks on North for a few minutes and then goes for a run on the horse trails by her house or on her home treadmill.

Workout music. She puts her iPod on shuffle and ends up listening to classical or slow R&B more often than not.

North wakes up at 8 am. Kim says mornings with North are her “favorite time.”

Kanye is always dieting: “Kanye loves to eat really healthy and is always on different diets. He has a chef who comes in the morning and cooks breakfast for both of us and gets our meal plans together for the day. We just started seeing a nutritionist who changes our diet every 10 days.”

Hair & makeup: it takes Kim an hour and a half to get her hair and makeup done at her house. Then another 15 minutes to get dressed.

Selfies: “I don’t have a selfie stick; I just take photos with my iPhone.”

Kim’s sweet tooth: “If I need a sweet-tooth fix, I’ll have those Justin’s peanut butter packs; the almond butter is also really good. I’ll just eat it plain. I used to drink a ton of iced tea, but I’ve cut back. I had the craziest addiction to Equal—I’d put 10 Equals in every iced tea. My sister Kourtney would always say, “You can’t have that much sweetener!” I’ve trained myself to have just one iced tea a week, and I’m down to three Equals. I’m not really a coffee drinker. I like it, and I’ll have some when I’m really jet-lagged, maybe once a month. I try to drink water.”

Desserts: “I don’t really have cocktails or desserts—I mean, I wish! Haagen-Dazs is my biggest indulgence—their Dulce de Leche flavor is my favorite thing in life.”

TV: “I don’t watch a whole lot of TV or movies, but when I do it’s typically murder shows or Dateline NBC.”

Bedtime: “I go to bed around 10, 11 at the latest. I always fall right to sleep. I’m usually so tired, I just pass out.”

[From Harper’s Bazaar]

I’m shocked to discover that Kim and I have somewhat similar schedules. I tend to get up around 6 am and I go to bed between 10 and 11. I eat light throughout the day. The biggest difference is that I hate morning workouts. I prefer to work out in the afternoon, when I’m really awake. I think working out is more painful first thing in the morning (for me at least). And is it just me or is it kind of weird that North sleeps until 8 am?!

I’m not a dancer at all. Not even when I was a kid – I didn’t take any dance classes, I took gymnastics. I could probably still do some impressive tumbles, but can I dance properly? No. Never. So I’m easily impressed when someone, anyone can manage to casually bust a move without A) falling down, B) looking like an a—hole or C) accidentally hitting themselves or someone else. Like, I was genuinely impressed with Cressida Bonas’ Mulberry commercial, even though most people threw shade.

What’s my point? I don’t actually think Robert Pattinson’s Coachella dancing is mind-blowingly terrible. Is it good? No. But it’s not so awful that I have second-hand embarrassment for him either. Sparkles was at Coachella throughout the weekend, catching his fiancée FKA Twigs’ performance, and then Sparkles and Twigs caught Drake’s performance Sunday night. Which is where some undercover fans took some videos of Sparkles’ rhythm-less moves. Here you go:

You can see more of his dancing here. I don’t even think we should say this is “dancing”. It’s more like he knows he can’t pull it off, so he’s just smoking his cigarette (I don’t think it’s a joint, although he probably is high) and bobbing his head like a typical dude. So, is Rob’s dancing a dealbreaker for you?
