It’s impossible to hear Elizabeth Montgomery without hearing the tiny sparkle that preceded her character’s nose twitch on Bewitched.

Sadly, the lovely actress passed away unexpectedly in 1995. She rose to fame in the 1960s and became a global phenomenon.

Elizabeth didn’t require hair and makeup artists, unlike the majority of actors and actresses in movies and television shows. I adored seeing her in Bewitched because she was such a natural beauty.

Sharon Osbourne was rushed to the hospital Friday night following a medical emergency. TMZ has reported the incident occurred while Sharon was shooting a TV show in California. EMS workers transported the 70 year old star to Santa Paula Hospital.

Sources have reported to TMZ that Sharon was ill on the set of the unnamed show at the Glen Tavern Inn in Santa Paula, California. The details were not clear if the cameras were recording during the emergency. This very hotel appeared in an episode of “Ghost Adventures” on the Travel Channel. No further details have been reported on Sharon’s condition.

Mrs. Osbourne’s health emergency occurred months after testing positive for COVID-19 in May 2022. This was around the same time her husband Ozzy Osbourne and daughter Kelly had also fallen ill with the coronavirus. In 2020, Sharon was briefly hospitalized with COVID.

The Super Bowl showdown is over, and the Kansas City Chiefs can now proudly wear the crown of champions. But this year’s epic game has been just as much about Taylor Swift and her romance with Travis Kelce.

In the midst of the Super Bowl madness, love and football collided in a spectacle that captivated fans both on and off the field.

After the Chiefs clinched the game in overtime, Swift made her way down to the field to embrace her hero. Standing alongside Kelce’s mother, she patiently waited for her boyfriend to finish his post-match interviews.

When he was done celebrating with his teammates and speaking with reporters, the tight end made a beeline for the two most important women in his life. First, he took off his cap and kissed and embraced his mother, the person who has been there for him all his life.

Then, turning to Taylor Swift, he created a moment that everyone had been waiting for. Would he propose? Not quite, but he quickly pivoted to Swift and said, “Come here girl.” With those heartfelt words, there can be no doubt left about how much it meant to Kelce to share this joy with his girlfriend.

The couple then shared several kisses in front of the cameras. It wasn’t just Kelce, Swift, and the Swifties who savored the moment – it felt like a kiss for the ages.

Before the nail-biting game, Kelce was questioned by reporters about his relationship with Taylor Swift. CBS asked about those who believe their relationship is fake.

“You’re all crazy,” Kelce said, laughing.

The Kansas City star tight end didn’t stop there, doubling down on his strong words.

“Every last one of you, you’re crazy,” Kelce declared.

During a January 31 appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, the Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end shared his aspirations regarding how he wants the public to perceive their relationship.

“It’s a beautiful thing, isn’t it?” Kelce said and continued:

“And then hopefully everyone realizes that we’re just two people in a relationship supporting each other and having fun with it, man. It’s nothing more than that as much as the world wants to paint the picture and make us the enemy, we just have fun with it. We enjoy every single bit of it. And sure enough, I love it when Taylor comes to support me and enjoys the game with the fam and friends. It’s been nothing than just a wonderful year, man.”

Reese Witherspoon and her husband have announced a divorce just two days before their 12th wedding anniversary.

She shared their last family picture on January 1, 2023.

A source has revealed possible reasons for the divorce, which began 18 months before the actress shared the statement.

Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth have mutually decided to end their marriage after eleven years. Following news of their divorce, an insider said the pair are “best of friends.”

The source further stated that Witherspoon and Toth’s decision to dissolve their union was solely amiable as they are both involved parents to their child.

The pair are family-orientated and intend to make the divorce process less painful for everyone involved. Toth and Witherspoon announced their divorce on March 24, 2023, via an Instagram post writing:

“We have some personal news to share. It is with a great deal of care and consideration that we have made the difficult decision to divorce. We have enjoyed so many wonderful years together and are moving forward with deep love, kindness,, and mutual respect for everything we have created together.”

Their focus now is their son Tennessee and Witherspoon’s two older kids, daughter Ava and son Deacon – whom she shares with her former spouse, actor Ryan Phillippe.

The mother of three and Toth first announced their engagement in December 2010 and later walked down the aisle on March 26, 2011.

The now-estranged couple’s last family social upload was on January 1, 2023. Witherspoon shared a picture of her and Toth with their son posing at the beach during sunset while facing away from the camera.

“Welcoming 2023! Let the sun shine in!” the Academy Award-winning actress and producer captioned the Instagram post.

Witherspoon and Toth marked their 11th wedding anniversary in March 2022, and she commemorated their special day with a sweet tribute online.

The movie star posted a gallery of photos of the pair from throughout the years alongside a caption that read: “Happy Anniversary JT!! 11 years of adventures, love, and laughter. I feel so lucky to share this wonderful life with you.”

The two celebrated Valentine’s Day a month before as Witherspoon shared how they marked the day while wishing her spouse a happy Valentine’s Day.

She penned, “Love my Valentine” on social media while sharing a snapshot of the arrangement of red roses and chocolates, which Toth surprised her with.

“Jim Just Isn’t the Guy Reese Witherspoon Married:” the Reason for the Divorce Revealed
Witherspoon and the talent agent’s divorce news came two days before their 12th wedding anniversary. A friend and colleague of the pair, who has worked closely with them for the past ten years, revealed the move is not as surprising to those close to them.

The insider mentioned that despite Toth and the award-winning actress having amassed great success with their joint business ventures, including selling their production company Hello Sunshine for nearly $1 billion in 2021, they had developed different goals in life.

“It was never if with Reese and Jim but when,” revealed the source, adding the disconnection in their marriage began in late 2021.

It became apparent to those around them that they wanted to live without each other. However, they were still enjoying the celebrations of their massive Hello Sunshine deal that they sold to Candle Media for $900 million.

The deal made Witherspoon and Toth grow apart, and after sealing the agreement, they only focused on raising their 12-year-old son Tennessee. Despite them butting heads occasionally, their child is their priority.

In addition to the deal, the insider disclosed that Toth’s career change five years ago was the biggest factor in his marriage falling apart. He left the agency world and became an investor and an advisor in the production company.

The father of one became a different person, but that does not mean he would struggle to co-parent with the mother of his child. The source further divulged:

“Jim isn’t the guy Reese married and had a son with anymore.”

The booker’s persona, frame of mind, and perspective on life reportedly changed entirely after leaving the agency business world behind him.

The source added after the Pennsylvania native and Witherspoon made so much money from Hello Sunshine and did not know what to do with it, leading them to relook at their life together.

According to the insider, even though Toth would still be a part of Witherspoon’s life while co-parenting, he plans on seeking new opportunities with the money he made from their deal – something he has longed to do for a while.

Arrest, Birth of Child & Love: Inside Their Life of Almost 12 Years
Witherspoon and Toth started dating in January 2010, and they went public with their relationship in March of that same year. They wed in a California wedding ceremony a year later.

Another year later, in September 2012, Toth and the New Orleans native welcomed their only child together, a son named Tennessee. At the time of his arrival, a rep for the “Legally Blonde” star revealed the mother-and-son duo was in good health and that the entire family was delighted at the news.

Witherspoon and Toth have been through ups and downs, including being in trouble with the law. In April 2013, the two were arrested in Atlanta for disorderly conduct and DUI.

The “Big Little Lies” star paid a fine after pleading no contest, while Toth pleaded guilty and was sentenced to community service.

In a statement about the incident, Witherspoon admitted to being heavily drunk, adding she was ashamed of how she conducted herself during her interaction with law enforcement. The Emmy Award winner admitted to being wrong by insulting the police officer who apprehended her and Toth and profusely apologized.

Witherspoon has shown how much she loved Toth over the years by penning heartfelt posts on social media about him. On Valentine’s Day in February 2016, she posted a note he wrote for her that read: “Happy Valentine’s Day, beautiful! I love you! Jim.” In turn, she gushed, “Love my sweet husband!”

The pair posed together for a festive holiday photo for Christmas in December 2022, with the children, Ava, Deacon, and Tennesse, by the Christmas tree.

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s oldest daughter, Gracie, showed her weight loss progress after she was criticized for being “thick” and displaying her body.

Gracie proved she is a fashionista like her mother in the new photos.

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill revealed what they think about Gracie.

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill are arguably one of the biggest couples in country music, and during their union, they welcomed three daughters, Gracie, Audrey, and Maggie. All their daughters have built their own lives, but Gracie has recently been in the headlines.

Gracie, the eldest of McGraw’s three daughters, has often been criticized for her appearance. Hill and McGraw’s firstborn has been overweight before and was heavily judged by followers of the couple.

Gracie took to Instagram last year to share a photo of herself in a bikini. She posted the mirror selfie and said although she had never really been comfortable in a bikini, she had purchased it for a reasonable price and felt good in it.

Followers immediately began berating Gracie for her appearance and for wearing a revealing swimsuit. They asked why she would want to show off her body. Another said she should not be wearing swimsuits. While some followers called her “thick,” others said they didn’t understand why she would show her body off no matter her size. Another said:

“Probably so hard when your mom is a freaking beauty queen and looks like a model.”

Despite the hateful comments, Gracie took to Instagram once again in January this year to share a video of herself working out. She mentioned that she was at her most vulnerable when she was exercising.

Gracie McGraw Is A Fashionista
Although Gracie has received comments disparaging how she presents herself, she is a fashionista, similar to her mother. She posted a series of photos a week ago and captioned it “This week’s mood board.”

The first photo was of her dog wearing a bedazzled cap. The second photo shows Gracie in a fashionable outfit, and there are a few photos following those that show Gracie in different trendy outfits.

The first outfit Gracie wore was an all-black outfit with a high neck and colorful socks, which could be seen as Gracie propped her foot up on the bathroom counter where she took the mirror selfie.

The next outfit shows Gracie wearing brown pants and a cream-colored jacket with matching fringe. She appeared to be in a changing room with more black clothes on the rack behind her.

She also posted a photo of herself in a floor-length pink gown with sequins all over it. The dress was fitted with long sleeves, and she also took the picture in a mirror, much like all the others in the series.

The last outfit was a cute throwback of Gracie when she was much younger. She wore a matching blue skirt and shirt and a pair of red sunglasses, and her hair was pulled back from her face.

Contrary to the comments Gracie received on last year’s bikini photo, the ones she received on this post were far more complimentary and sweet. One said that the follower loved how Gracie looked in the pink gown.

Another woman simply commented with a heart emoji, and there was another follower that kindly commented:

“You are so beautiful and talented, the best of both parents.”

Many other followers simply said they loved her style and praised her for the way she put her outfits together. Some fans commented that she always looked beautiful in whatever she wore.

What Do Tim McGraw and Faith Hill Think of Their Daughter
While followers might not always have lovely things to say about Gracie, her parents remain her biggest fans and are not afraid to show her off on social media from time to time. They have mentioned how proud they are of their eldest child.

In May last year, McGraw shared a photo of himself and Gracie on his Instagram page, followed by a video of Gracie singing and acting. He mentioned how talented she was and that she had a big heart.

He told the 25-year-old to keep reaching for her dreams in life and then gushed about her further, saying:

“You inspire me every day.”

In 2021, McGraw also shared his daughter’s 24th birthday milestone on Instagram. He shared a video of the pair on a road trip, singing together. There were two videos, and in each, the duo was singing a different song in perfect harmony.

McGraw said he was proud of his daughter for being a talented and capable young woman who could do anything she wanted to do. He said she is a loving young woman who always makes time for her friends and family.

He then joked that he knew she found out her birthday coincided with Cinco de Mayo before he knew she did. The post was met with lovely comments praising McGraw for fostering a close relationship with his daughter.

Others were amazed at how beautiful Gracie’s singing voice was and said she had inherited her parents’ talents. Some followers said they would love to watch the videos all day if they could.

Although McGraw loves to show Gracie off on social media, he has also spoken about her in interviews. Last year, he said:

“Gracie, our oldest daughter, is an actress in L.A., and she makes me proud every day because she’s such a strong, independent young lady who speaks her mind. And she makes me proud every day of the way she lives her life.”

Besides Gracie’s father praising her, her mother also loves praising her eldest daughter for everything she has achieved in life. On her birthday last year, she took to Instagram to wish her daughter a happy birthday.

She posted a photo of Gracie in a beige outfit, smiling at something outside the frame, and a picture of Gracie with other women dressed up. She asked how it felt for her daughter to be “25 and smokin’ hot.”

Hill then said Gracie had always been the life of the party and told mentioned how much she loved her eldest child. However, this was not the only opportunity Hill took to show her daughter off to her followers.

On Gracie’s 21st birthday in 2018, Hill posted a photo of Gracie with a pink bob haircut and subtle makeup. In the caption, Hill talked about what it was like to welcome her first child twenty-one years prior.

She mentioned that she and McGraw found out what it was like to love someone so immensely and then said:

“She is joy; she is strength; she is true; she is loyal; she is sunshine; she is fierce; she is art; she is still our baby girl.”

Hill also shared that she and her daughter had shared many laughs throughout the years and that they always had fun together. Once again, she mentioned how much she loved her daughter.

Whether you saw her first in Smokey and the Bandit, Gidget, or Mrs. Doubtfire, Sally Field’s trademark smile and undeniable grace have made her a joy to watch on the big screen and the small screen over the years. But true to her status as a bonafide Hollywood legend (and now Kennedy Center honoree), Sally has also lived a life that’s worthy of its own on-screen portrayal.

These 40 photos from Sally’s most iconic moments and roles reveal a behind-the-scenes look at her venerable (and very much ongoing) career. Through her many award show wins, star-studded relationships, health struggles, and impassioned activism, she’s always inspired us to work hard and reach for the stars — whether on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, or otherwise.

The beautiful and well-known actress Jennifer Aniston had a difficult upbringing due to her mother’s frequent criticism.
Despite her best efforts, Jennifer’s mother, Nancy Dow, who was also an actor, did not know how to raise a young child.
Jennifer Aniston was always aware of her parents’ divorce due to the mounting problems in their marriage.

She would hear her mother say, “You’re ugly, and you have a big nose,” every day. She stayed in her mother’s care, who constantly reprimanded her and pointed out all of her physical defects, including her eyes being too far apart, her nose being too big, and the few pounds she had acquired during puberty.

Jennifer also developed an early belief that she was “terrible” due to her lack of confidence, which prevented her from integrating into the team and managing at school.
Even though his mother was quite attractive, he was unable to physically or mentally mimic her. Because Jennifer and her father didn’t have a close relationship, Jennifer was at the mercy of her mother’s unpredictable conduct.
One day, when Jen became enraged about her mother’s comments, Nancy laughed in her face. As a result, Jen learned to accept criticism in silence.
Jennifer Aniston quickly found that her reading handicap, dyslexia, was the cause of her academic problems as it hindered her ability to comprehend written content.

She realized that she wasn’t as bad as she had thought, and she started to wonder if her mother’s assessments of her were accurate.

After her first Hollywood job, Jen started to feel more confident in herself, especially after having nose surgery.

Her mother, conversely, was not ecstatic. Despite her tremendous fame from “Friends,” Jennifer Aniston’s happiness was tainted by interviews with her mother, who persisted in publicly criticizing her.

With her classmates all around her, especially Courtney Cox, Jen vowed she would never talk to her mother again. She did not attend Brad Pitt’s nuptials.
Even though living with her mother was challenging, Jennifer now feels that it contributed to her development into the strong woman she is today. The trauma gradually subsided after years of treatment.

“My mother spoke to me in this way because she loved me and wanted the best for me.” Her ignorance of the suffering she was causing me, which would require years of treatment, prevented her from being malicious. Because of her background, Jennifer Aniston became the person she is now. She discussed this with Elle magazine.

  • Jeff Bridges and his wife, Susan, celebrated their 46th year of marriage in 2023, which is a beautiful achievement! 😍🙏
  • For Jeff, it was love at first sight despite Susan being a waitress and having a facial injury.

Jeff Bridges has been in the entertainment industry for over 60 years and has served as an American actor, producer, and singer. While shooting a hot tub scene for 1975’s “Rancho Deluxe” at Montana’s Chico Hot Springs, the star met his future wife, Susan “Sue” Geston.

When he saw the waitress, he couldn’t take his eyes off her with her broken nose and black eye. The actor later learned that the woman had just been in a car accident resulting in her facial injuries. Regardless, he was still enthralled by her appearance.

Jeff recalled being riveted by “her beauty and disfigurement.” For him, it was “love at first sight.” Like a fascinated child, he kept sneaking peeks at her while shooting a scene, but each time, she caught him in the act. He confessed:

“I didn’t know what she was, a maid or a waitress; I couldn’t take my eyes off her.”

He thought she was gorgeous, and the contrast between her beauty and disfigurement interested him. After filming, the “The Big Lebowski” star found the courage to approach her and ask for a date.

Susan hilariously refused but noted that it was possible they’d run into each other later because she lived in a small town. As fate would have it, the pair did, and they went out dancing, and the celebrity fell in love.

The following day, the actor had a meeting with a local real estate agent to see some property, and he invited Susan. They went to a ranch house by the river, and that became their first date. Something told Jeff right then that he was looking at his home with his “future wife.”

The thought worried him, but he realized he couldn’t lose the love of his life, though he was also afraid of knowing she was the one for him! The star was in love, but he was also worried he and Susan wouldn’t have the staying power his parents had. He admitted:

“For a while, I was scared of getting married. It was like it brought me one step closer to death.”

Eventually, Jeff learned to face his fear as part of life and came to terms with it. He admitted his biggest fear was losing his freedom, but after two years of doubt, he finally proposed. He figured he could always get a divorce if things didn’t work out.

However, he didn’t expect to build a deeper bond with his wife, to include children, grandchildren, and other unattainable things without marriage. Although the move was scary for Jeff, his heart was deeply open.

In 2020, the actor, then 70, had been married to Susan for 43 years, and he revealed that they were different people who went by with mutual respect. They celebrated what made them opposites instead of allowing it to separate them.

One of Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck’s daughters was seen with a new hairdo in a recent public outing. The former couple’s daughter sparked online chatter from people who saw pictures of her.

 

On Tuesday morning, the 15-year-old daughter of ex-Hollywood couple Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner was photographed as she waited for her school bus with her mom. Photos shared online depicted Seraphina Affleck, who wore jeans, a beige sweater, and an olive-colored backpack, sporting a buzzcut.

The edgy hairstyle change comes after the teenager, who also had earphones in her ears, was seen rocking a bob late last year. Images of Seraphina, born on January 6, 2009, prompted different comments from the public.

Of the young girl’s appearance, one person noted, “She looks like her dad with that shaved hair.” Similarly, another reiterated, “She looks like her father.” Someone else stated, “Sad what happened to this kid.”

Other social media users praised Seraphina’s hair, citing their opinions that she looks good with a buzz cut. In this regard, one fan gushed, “It looks so cute on her!! So many women shave their heads in fashion.” An admirer swooned, “Very adorable 💜.” Another social media user expressed, “Paying homage to Demi Moore! Showing her own style! I say a little color will make it pop!”

Although Seraphina, whose doting parents revealed her lovely name to media outlets seven days after she was born, has garnered significant traction online, she does not have a social media account. This decision was previously discussed by Seraphina Affleck’s mom, Garner, who has kept her children off of social media.

While discussing the matter last year, Garner shared a conversation she had with her kids—in addition to Seraphina, she is a mom to Violet and Samuel Affleck. The “13 Going on 30” star divulged, “I just said to my kids, ‘Show me the articles that prove that social media is good for teenagers, and then we’ll have that conversation.’”

Garner went on to say that so far, her eldest daughter, Violet, has been appreciative of her mom’s decision not to allow them on social media. As a mother of two daughters in their teens and a son on the verge of teenagehood, the loving mom understands how “hard” it is “to be an adolescent.”

As far as how Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel’s doting dad feels about social media, the “Air” talent previously expressed, “I got to a place where [the public perception] was so different from who I am that I just stopped reading and stopped caring.”

However, Ben also spoke about the difficulty he experiences as his children get older and get more exposed to the internet. He specifically mentioned the false rhetoric that he is miserable based on pictures of his facial expressions.

 

Nancy Sinatra, the daughter of legendary crooner Frank Sinatra, was born on June 8, 1940, as the eldest daughter of Frank Sinatra and his wife, Nancy Barbato Sinatra.

In Sinatra’s early years, the family moved to Hasbrouck Heights in New Jersey.

“We had a lovely little house there, but you could get to the windows from the street—once people knew he lived there, they would come to get a glimpse, which worried my mother because I was a tiny little toddler, and she didn’t want anybody stealing me from the front yard,” Nancy recalled in an interview with The Guardian

The little girl grew up surrounded by stars and wealth, locked in the ever-present spotlight of fame – so you’d think her transition into being a singing sensation in her own right would have been smooth.

But her first singles were a failure, and she was close to being dropped by her father’s record label, Reprise Records. Then, however, after some vocal training and an image change, Nancy enjoyed the success we all remember her for.

When her family moved to California, so her father could pursue his acting career in Hollywood, Nancy took dancing, acting, piano, and voice lessons.

She’s best remembered for wearing her iconic go-go boots and singing “These Boots Are Made For Walking.” The song even had a music video to go with it, a rarity in the days before MTV.

”I knew it was a hit the first time [writer-producer] Lee Hazlewood played the bass line on his guitar in my mother’s living room. When I heard the track in the studio, I knew then and there it would be a number-one record. I even told Lee to release the track without the vocal! The fact that it has been embraced by generation after generation of little girls is proof of its staying power. I was the lucky one to record it and I think the fashion helped it along. Girls always want a pair of boots,” Nancy Sinatra told Los Angeles Magazine in 2016.

But before the hit that earned her three Grammy nominations, she had dropped out of college after a year, had married and divorced and was nearly dropped by her father’s record label.

Thankfully, songwriter Lee Hazlewood taught her to sing in a lower tone; she adopted the “Carnaby Street” look, and in 1966, she released her best-known single, which reached No. 1 in the United States Billboard Hot 100 and in the U.K. Singles Chart.

Following her success, she had other hits, including “How Does That Grab You, Darlin’?” and “Sugar Town.” She even appeared on the silver screen playing lead roles alongside Peter Fonda in 1966’s The Wild Angels, and Elvis Presley in Speedway in 1968.

The fashion icon stepped away from the limelight in the 1970s to raise her children from her second marriage to Hugh Lambert.

But came back with a bang by posing for Playboy at the age of 54, and released her third album, which includes musicians such as Bono and Morrissey, which she says acted as a mentor to her.

She released two books about her father and was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

And as for her iconic go-go boots she can’t recall what happened to them, believing she gave them away at some point.

Nancy Sinatra’s love life
In 1960, Sinatra married teen singing idol Tommy Sands – but they divorced just a few years later.

In 1970 she was ready for a new marriage when Hugh Lambert came into her life. Nancy briefly stepped out of the spotlight to raise her two daughters. Unfortunately, Lambert died from cancer in 1985.

Today, Nancy keeps herself busy and has no plans to slow down. In 2020, she opened Nancy’s Bootique, an online shop where fans can order CDs, exclusive merchandise, and signed items.

In addition, during the pandemic and until 2021, Nancy hosted a weekly radio show called Nancy for Frank, where she shared details on her life and her relationship with her late father.

Such a fashion icon that still inspires us today.

Please share with all the Sinatra fans you know.
