Saldana and her sister Cisely rode (what looks like) the F train subway at West 4th Street Subway in New York City this past Mothers’ Day.
Pretty decent work in roles for films like Star Trek and Avatar have slowly but surely elevated Zoe Saldana to the bottom tier of the celebrity A-list.
As she continues to scale the heights of fame, Saldana is apparently refusing to forget to go cray cray. She’s never shown an ego trip. She rarely drools for the swag other celebrities die for. And she still values family.
The sisters look quite close, sharing headphone ear buds as they sat on the steel grey benches. Bitches we are at Rich Crib, we can’t help but think her recent breakup with Bradley Cooper has encouraged Saldana to cling to those who’ll never desert her.
The thirty-something actress (Rich Crib doesn’t reveal real ages, RESPECT, people!!) maintained her calm among the commoners; she donned a breezy sleeveless white top and billowy floral dress with sandals and hoop earrings.
Coincidentally, Zoe has just wrapped up her work on the Star Trek sequel, due in theaters next summer. Next up for her is “Blood Ties,” along with Clive Owen and Mila Kunis. The film tracks two brothers who battle community-wide Brooklyn crime in the Seventies.
Is Will “Getting Jiggy With It” Smith taking an athletic turn in his career?
Sportive new photos have emerged showing the very, very, very well paid superstar performing alley-oops, scaling a series of hurdles, and sparring like the goofy nut that he is. All of this serves as evidence that the Men in Black juggernaut could potentially be taking to the London Games this summer.
It wouldn’t be the worst career move in history; the recently released trailer for the latest (and blatantly unnecessary) entry in the Men in Black series completely underwhelmed us at Rich Crib, and I’m sure you were none too pleased either.
Although the 6-foot-2-inch actor appears able to hang with real Olympic hopefuls with the greatest of ease, he in fact won’t really be participating in the London ceremony. He merely clowned around with some member of Great Britain’s olympic team at London’s Ethos Gym. Among those graced by the presence of Mr. Smith include heavyweight boxer Anthony Josha and basketball team lead Drew Sullivan.
We should have known that Will wasn’t really serious about earning Olympic gold from a look at his outfit. Casual black pants and a checkered dress shirt aren’t exactly staples in the wardrobe of champions.
So then what the heck was Will doing, distracting these gifted athletes from their daily workouts and practice? Take a wild guess: He was in London Town merely to promote Men in Black III; he showed on a red carpet alongside Alice Eve and Josh Brolin later in the evening.
Will you watch Will Smith in Men in Black III? I’ll save my popcorn money and wait for the London Olympics instead. More entertaining. 
Life after Twilight is fabulous for Robert Pattinson. Perhaps too fabulous. Reportedly, he had put on ten pounds since the film wrapped, as a result of hitting the booze with friends and eating cheeseburgers. Insiders say that his girlfriend, Kristen Stewart wasn’t happy when he packed on the additional weight.
According to insiders, Stewart asked him to get himself together. Robert hates the gym, so she asked him to take up paddle surfing to attempt to work off the excessive calories. And you know what, it may sound a bit harsh, yet I am all for Kristen laying out the law here. If your significant other cannot tell you that it is time to begin shaping up, who can?
So Pattinson lost the weight and dropped back down to his regular size. He’s been working out a TON lately — and boy it shows! Robert is not pale and pudgy anymore! Earlier this month, television personality Wendy Williams criticized Pattinson’s body (who is she to talk?) and asked him to go to the gym and obtain a fake tan. Well, the twenty-five-year-old Twilight star must’ve taken her words to heart because Pattinson appeared fully toned and tanned as he stepped out at Coachella.
Alicia Hunter, author of The Accidental Diet and weight expert said that it really looks as if he has snapped out of that party mode and back into his discipline mode. She adds that Robert is young, so she bet it did not take a lot of work to get back that washboard waist all of those Twi-hards have come to love and know.
Alicia guessed that Robert has lost about ten pounds via a combination of exercise and diet. Alicia says he possibly reduced his empty carbohydrate intake and increased both his cardio and lean proteins. He absolutely appears as if he has been running on the beach and catching a few waves, as well as a shave! (Thank goodness)!
KELLY ROWLAND’s representative has blamed her departure from the U.K. version of THE X FACTOR on the singer’s hectic schedule.
The former Destiny’s Child star won’t be returning as a judge for the new series of the hit show, with her spokesperson citing “global commitments coupled with the show’s increasing demands” as the reason for her exit after just one season.
In a statement, Rowland says, “I love the U.K. and being part of the show last year. Mentoring the girls was such an incredible experience I will never forget. I would like to thank Simon for the great opportunity and asking me to be a judge last season.”
No further details of Rowland’s departure from the show were revealed, but shortly before her official statement, she posted a cryptic comment on her Twitter.com page, writing, “Only God can judge me.”
A spokesperson for the show says, “Kelly’s immense experience in the music industry shone through in both her judging and mentoring on The X Factor and we would like to thank her for being a part of the country’s number one show and wish her well for the future.”
Earlier this month (Apr12), music mogul Simon Cowell confirmed Rowland’s fellow judge Gary Barlow was returning for the new series, and singer Tulisa Contostavlos hinted on Monday (30Apr12) that it looks “likely” she will head back to the show.

The pop superstar’s Born This Way Ball world tour has been greeted by protests in Seoul, where kids under 18 were banned from attending a Friday night show.
Members of a Christian group called the Alliance for Sound Culture In Sexuality held a mass prayer meeting in Seoul last weekend (22Apr12) to rally against the singer, and they also placed posters around the city accusing Gaga of “spreading unhealthy sexual culture” through “lewd lyrics and performances”.
The posters were subsequently removed by city officials, but that didn’t stop campaigners from another organization, the Civilians Network against the Lady Gaga Concert, from showing their disapproval of the Poker Face hitmaker by gathering outside her show at the Olympic Stadium on Friday.
But their presence didn’t faze the 45,000 fans who flocked to see Gaga in concert and many donned versions of the elaborate costumes their pop idol has become known for.
Gaga will brush off the opening-night controversies and head to Hong Kong, where she will stage her next show on Wednesday (02May12).
