I keep forgetting that Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello are engaged. Hell, I keep forgetting that they’re together. At first their relationship seemed cooked up by publicists, but after several months passed, it seems more like they’re just another boringly attractive couple. For what it’s worth, I thought she was more interesting with Nick Loeb, even though Loeb seemed like a total toolbox. But there was passion and heat and rage there.
Speaking of, back when Loeb and Vergara were together, he kept talking about how he wanted babies with her. She always sounded like she wasn’t interested – she already has an adult son, Manolo, and Sofia’s career motto seems to be “strike while the iron is hot.” She doesn’t want to put her career on pause to have anyone’s baby. But still, when she was with Loeb, she went and had her eggs frozen. There were even stories that she had a surrogate all lined up and everything and it was happening. But nothing happened. She broke up with Loeb and got with Joe Manganiello and now they’re engaged. And I guess they want a baby?
After Sofía Vergara and her fiancé, Joe Manganiello, spent nearly two months of searching for a surrogate, ‘In Touch’ has learned that the duo finally found a match!
“It was hard, because Sofía wanted to make sure that the woman was someone she could trust,” an insider exclusively says in the new issue of ‘In Touch.’
While ‘In Touch’ will not release the name of the surrogate, it can reveal that she works closely with the ‘Modern Family’ star. “Sofía is friends with this woman and spends a lot of time with her,” says the insider, “so she can watch the pregnancy firsthand as if it were her own.”
And while another source says the reason Sofía (who is already mom to Manolo, 23, from her first marriage) won’t carry the baby herself is “a closely guarded secret,” the pair aren’t hiding their excitement. “Sofía’s said from day one that Joe is the perfect dad,” adds the source. “They can’t wait to be parents.”

There has never been a confirmation from Sofia that she A) really does want another kid or B) can’t naturally conceive again. I think it’s pretty much a case of Sofia not wanting to be pregnant and not wanting to put her career on hold for any reason. To me, that sounds like the wrong way to bring a kid into the world, but whatever. I’m not doubting that Sofia will take care of her gestational surrogate in every way, and if that’s what she really wants, God bless. It just feels like Sofia gets with these guys who don’t have kids and she thinks she has to just give in and have a baby some way instead of just saying “No thanks, I’ve done that already and I don’t want to do it again at this point in my life.”

Rita Ora covers the March issue of Nylon to promote her role in 50 Shades as Christian Grey’s sister. Never let it be said that Rita doesn’t push her projects. She’s been talking about this role for over a year. Those who have seen 50 Shades are poking Rita on Twitter because she’s barely in the movie. People say she’s got anywhere between 3 and 90 seconds of screentime. That’s tough. Rita IS full of herself, so it’s funny that she may have ended up on the cutting room floor. Is her role very large in the books? I don’t know.
I’m ignoring the 50 Shades bits in this interview because ugh. Rita talks about other stuff like fashion and her new music. She never mentions Calvin Harris’ name, but the claws are out. After their bad romance ended, Calvin tossed epic shade at Rita and yanked his songs from her album. It’s going to be fine. Rita can throw shade too!
She’s matured as an artist: “It was a process to be like, ‘F*** it! I’m just gonna be me.’ With the first album, I was so hyped up to be signed with Jay Z. I was like, ‘Whatever! Jay f***in’ Z!’ Two, three years later, I was like, ‘You know what? People are actually interested in what I’m saying and how I’m dressing and how I’m acting.’ It’s like, ‘Yeah, I grew up and I looked at my a**, and it got a bit bigger and I’m sexier now.’ Might as well flaunt it! I feel more womanly.”
Her changing vision: “I had a breakup, or whatever, and it really made me realize what I was trying to do. I had been fixated on this love fantasy, but really it wasn’t like that, and I had to take myself back. For me, this was my moment where I had to be real and tell the truth and be honest. I love my pop songs, and I’m still gonna be pop, but this has just got a lot more depth to it.”
Rita is “punk”: The fashion world “needs confidence. It needs a massive boost. It needs a kind of, like, ‘F*** you.’ It needs another Madonna … which it’s not gonna get. But it needs a person who takes chances. You have amazing girls like Emma Watson–glamorous, gorgeous, clean, beautiful girls. But where’s that punk energy? That fun, crazy, respected but still like, ‘S–t, she’s just doing her thing’ person? That’s who I am!”

Rita is a “punk” fashionista now? I don’t understand what she’s saying about maturing as an artist. Her tush got bigger, so she’s more of a woman and therefore more mature? Maybe something got lost in journalistic translation. Rita recently twerked in a bikini for Instagram, which wasn’t very mature.
Anyway. I’m sure Calvin will catch wind of Rita dissing his shallow songs. I wonder who’s writing her new tunes because it isn’t her.

Actress Drew Barrymore shared a precious new photo with daughter Frankie, 9 months, via Instagram Wednesday.
While promoting a new contest for her cosmetics line, Flower Beauty, the E.T. star, 39, captioned the photo: “The question is…’Who are YOU Kissing this Valentine’s Day? Ps…I’m kissing Frankie Kopelman.”
The actress – who is gearing up to turn the big 4-0 later this month – recently opened up about the flexibility within the beauty biz.
“I love the beauty industry because even on a workday I can wake up with my kids, go to work, come home, bedtime—there’s a normal life there,” said the actress, who is also mom to 2-year-old daughter Olive.
She added: “And it’s exciting when you have to go on a business trip, as opposed to a film where you’re gone for months. I can’t do that right now. As you add more onto your plate, particularly family, things have to fall off, or you won’t be a good parent.”

Rihanna was out for dinner last night at her favourite restaurant, Giorgio Baldi. She was photographed carrying her cousin’s baby wearing a coat with faces all over it. It’s faux fur. And it’s MAGNIFICENT. Click here for the designer. Of course it’s seen on her first.
