Natalie Portman: Square One Ring-Wearing Woman
She's had people curious over her marital state these days, and Natalie Portman was spotted feeding the meter in Los Angeles on Wednesday afternoon (February 29).
The Oscar-winning actress was looking chic, wearing a long trench coat with jeans and black heels as she toted papers in-hand while en route to a business meeting at Square One Dining.
Meanwhile, the major focal point was once again the jewelry adorning that all-important finger - as a rep for Jamie Wolf wedding rings confirmed having put together the marital bands for Portman and her babydaddy Benjamin Millepied.
“As with the engagement ring she designed for Natalie, Wolf created the eco-friendly rings with recycled platinum and conflict-free diamonds,” the rep told.

Melanie Brown Talks Post Baby Pounds
She may have welcomed her third daughter Madison only six months previously but that hasn't stopped former Spice Girl Melanie Brown - A.K.A Mel B - from getting her pre-baby body back. The 36-year-old singer - who put on 30 lbs. during her latest pregnancy - claims she has already reached her goal weight and proudly shows off her curves on the cover of Australian magazine Woman's Day.
"The six-pack is back!" the pop singer exclaims, relishing in the fact that she has shed 33 lbs. thanks to Jenny Craig in Australia. "I'm the same girl from 15 years ago...losing weight has made me the best mum possible."

John Mayer Announces Spring Tour
His new album, Born and Raised, is also slated for the spring.

John Mayer announced he needed vocal surgery last fall, and now he's back and ready to hit the road.
On Monday (February 27), the Grammy-winning singer/songwriter announced plans for a spring tour, his first outing in nearly two years. The 18-date trek will kick off April 9 in Bloomington, Indiana, before wrapping up May 6 in Phoenix. The tour will be in support of his forthcoming new album, Born and Raised, which will be released sometime around the outing. The album's lead single, "Shadow Days," hits radio Monday.
The tour will help raise funds and awareness for the Northern California Institute of Research and Education, which "provides veterans with a healthy reintegration into civilian life." Mayer will auction off tickets to the shows to help raise money for the organization.
Born and Raised will feature production from Don Was, and Mayer will get some vocal and instrumental help from singers David Crosby and Graham Nash, keyboardist/pianist Chuck Leavell, bassist Sean Hurley and drummer Aaron Sterling. On tour, Mayer will be joined by guitarist and vocalist David Ryan Harris, guitarist Doug Pettibone and percussionist Michito Sanchez.
Previously, Mayer described the album as having "organic cowboy guitar sounds," adding that he had this very romantic thought when it came to the album's vibe: "What would it sound like if I wrote an album of cowboy songs on this guitar under the stars?"
"Every new record I start, a new aesthetic comes in. I can't help it," he said about the project. "I think it's gonna be more organic, more natural lyrics and chords and artful simplicity."

Madonna Drops New Single 'Girl Gone Wild'
Pop icon's inner dance-floor vixen comes out on second MDNA single.

Madonna's "Girl Gone Wild"

Madonna kicked the party off with "Give Me All Your Luvin', " and she's keeping it going with her second MDNA single, "Girl Gone Wild." The thumping song, released Monday (February 27), proves that this era of Madonna will certainly be focused on pumping out dance-floor anthems.
"Girl Gone Wild" is all about the heat of letting loose and dancing, certainly themes that Madge fans will find familiar. Produced by Benny Benassi, the track, though fun and funky, is a bit darker than her first single, which seemed to pay homage to the '80s version of the pop icon in its bright nature.
"I got that burnin' hot desire/ And no one can put out my fire/ It's coming right down through the wire/ Here it comes/ When I hear them 808 drums/ It's got me singing," she proclaims on the catchy, sing-along chorus. "Hey, ey, ey, ey/ Like a girl gone wild/ A good girl gone wild/ I'm like, hey, ey, ey, ey/ Like a girl gone wild/ A good girl gone wild."
The song chugs along thanks to more dance-floor confessions from the singer, which include, "The room is spinning/ It must be the Tanqueray/ I'm about to go astray/ My inhibition's gone away/ I feel like sinning/ You got me in the zone/ DJ play my favorite song/ Turn me on."
The video was shot earlier this month and was directed by fashion photographers Mert and Marcus, who also shot the colorful artwork for the album. It had been rumored that Britney Spears would be featured on the track, but that rumor was shot down by Madonna herself.
MDNA will drop on March 26. It features production from collaborators like Martin Solveig and William Orbit, Demolition Crew, Alessandro "Alle" Benassi, Hardy "Indiigo" Muanza and Michael Malih.

Adele: March 2012 cover girl of Vogue
On her 'loud' personality: “I am quite loud and bolshie,” she says (British slang for unruly and clamorous). “I’m a big personality. I walk into a room, big and tall and loud.” Indeed. There is no doubt when Adele is in the building. The rule of thumb for protecting one’s vocal cords, she tells me, is: If people are more than an arm’s length away, you shouldn’t talk to them. “But I am like, Wah! Wah! Wah!,” she says, laughing. “It’s really bad.”
On giving up drinking last May: “Don’t like drinking anymore. I think I got it out of my system. D’yaknowhaImean?”
On her vocal troubles: “I’ve been singing properly every day since I was about fifteen or sixteen and I have never had any problems with my voice, ever. I’ve had a sore throat here and there, had a cold and sung through it, but that day it just went while I was onstage in Paris during a radio show. It was literally like someone had pulled a curtain over it.” She flew to London the next morning to see her doctor and was diagnosed with acute laryngitis. After a couple weeks’ rest, she continued her European tour, came to America, and then her voice went again in May. “That was a hemorrhage... a burst blood vessel on my vocal cord. That healed, I did a tour, and then it happened again at my best friend’s wedding on October 1.”
On getting support through her surgery from other artists: “John Mayer had it done at the same time as I did and he really helped me be chilled out about it. Roger Daltrey’s had loads of stuff done; Steven Tyler reached out; Elton John. Lots of artists have had problems with their voices, but you don’t know about it. And they are still singing incredibly well in their 50s and 60s.”
On her six Grammy nominations: “I burst into tears when I found out. And I would love, absolutely love, to win. This record is coming to an end, and that would be the final brick on it.” [gallery=821]

Bethenny Frankel: Miami Beach Bikini Babe
Kicking off her week with some fun in the sun, Bethenny Frankel was spotted out on the beach in Miami today (February 27).
The former “Real Housewives” hottie looked absolutely fabulous in a skimpy two-piece swimsuit as she struck a few poses for the paparazzi.
And it sounds like Ms. Frankel’s Skinnygirl Cocktails lineup has just expanded to include a variety of vodkas.
Bill Newlands, president of Beam (they acquired Skinnygirl from Frankel for $100 million in 2011) told press, “Ten million women in the U.S. drink ready-to-serve cocktails, 26 million consume vodka and 42 million enjoy wine. So why not broaden the Skinnygirl line to give women everything they want across the cocktailing spectrum?”

'In Memoriam' montage also pays tribute to Steve Jobs, Sidney Lumet, Jane Russell and more fallen stars.

Billy Crystal introduced this year's "In Memoriam" montage with personal, heartfelt words about two Academy Awards producers who passed away in 2011, one of whom was Laura Ziskin, who produced on films like "Spider-Man" and "As Good as It Gets."
Esperanza Spalding, backed by the Southern California Children's Choir, sang a restrained and powerful version of "What a Wonderful World" as the clips played. The audience was asked to hold their applause until after the montage concluded, which they respectfully abided by. This prevented the morbid "applause-meter" phenomenon of years past, which seemed to unwittingly measure one fallen industry person's popularity against another.
The montage included a number of producers, costume designers, sound technicians and other departed industry folks, in addition to writers, directors and film stars. Among those honored were Whitney Houston and Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, who was awarded a posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award at the Grammy Special Merit Awards ceremony held in Los Angeles earlier this month.
The montage also included Jane Russell (who died shortly after last year's Academy Awards), Farley Granger (who starred in two Alfred Hitchcock films, including "Strangers on a Train"), Hal Kanter, Jackie Cooper (the former child actor who also famously played newspaper boss to Christopher's Reeve's "Superman"), Sidney Lumet (director of classic movies like "Serpico," "Network" and "Twelve Angry Men") and Oscar winner Cliff Robertson (best known to modern audiences as Spider-Man's Uncle Ben).
The "In Memoriam" at the 84th annual Academy Awards closed with a clip of Elizabeth Taylor as "Cleopatra."

Joined by boyfriend Sauli Koskinen, the "For Your Entertainment" hitmaker mingled with guests including Katy Perry and Sir Elton John at The City of West Hollywood Park venue.
The appearance comes just after it was announced that Lambert will again take the stage with Queen to headline the U.K.'s Sonisphere Festival on July 7, 2012.
The performance will have particular significance as its location at Knebworth Park marks the site of Freddie Mercury's final performance with the band in August, 1986.

Trekkies everywhere rejoiced as Zachary Quinto and J.C. Chandor were among the first of the big-name celebrities to arrive on the red carpet for the 2012 Oscars. Quinto spoke to MTV News about the behind-the-scenes pictures that surfaced a few days ago from the still-untitled "Star Trek" sequel, saying the shot of himself and Benedict Cumberbatch "fighting" isn't an actual scene in the film.
"The cameras weren't even rolling so ... imagine what it'll look like when we're actually doing it," Quinto quipped in response to the leaked photos. "That happens, I guess. We're on incredibly big set pieces in the middle of somewhere and people sort of got wind of it."
Chandor was quick to reply that, for a moment, he thought his daughter, who had been visiting the set that day, would be blamed for taking the picture — however, she signed a non-disclosure agreement and is only 6 years old.
Quinto confirmed that the highly anticipated sequel will be shot in both 3-D and IMAX. "It's definitely bigger, and it requires a different kind of energy. It's been really challenging, but in the best way," he shared.
On Saturday, both Quinto and Chandor won big at the Independent Spirit Awards for their newest film, "Margin Call." Taking home both the award for Best First Feature and the Robert Altman Award, Quinto called their victory, "Every bit as exciting as the Oscars, but in a different way." "Margin Call" is about a group of investment bankers over a 24-hour period during the onset moments of the current financial crisis.
Check out everything we've got on "Star Trek 2."

Oscars 2012: How 'The Help' Got To The Academy Awards
Movie's success proves that powerful audience support can buck Oscar stereotypes.
By Kevin P. Sullivan
Emma Stone in "The Help"

Of the nine films nominated for Best Picture at this Sunday's Academy Awards, the only two that came out before the fall movie season, where Oscar bait runs rampant, are probably the most unlikely nominees.
The inclusion of "The Tree of Life" on the short list, despite its loose structure, makes sense because of the prestige of its director, Terrence Malick. "The Help," on the other hand, found Oscar success with an untested director and a racially charged subject matter.
Before "The Help" was a nominated film, it was a best-selling novel by writer Kathryn Stockett. While looking to sell the novel, Stockett queried 60 agents, all of whom rejected her request for representation. When the novel finally did find a home with an agent and eventually a publisher, it became a best-seller soon afterward.
But the before the novel found a wide audience, Stockett's childhood friend and former roommate Tate Taylor agreed with the author to pen the screen adaptation and direct the eventual film. Despite pressure from DreamWorks, Stockett insisted that Taylor direct the film of her book.
The connection between Stockett and Taylor was not the only one on set. Taylor and Best Supporting Actress nominee Octavia Spencer met while working as production assistants on "A Time to Kill."
As with all high-profile novel adaptations, "The Help" had a built-in audience going into its August release, but it wasn't until strong reviews and an A+ CinemaScore that people began to realize the potential for Oscar nominations.
Two of the film's actresses, Spencer and Best Actress nominee Viola Davis, received the earliest and most unanimous accolades after the film's release and rode that praise to Oscar nominations. They were both favorites in their respective categories, and as we head into Oscar night, they remain so.
The story of the movie's road to the Oscars demonstrates that the power of the audience can buck old Oscar stereotypes and push a loved film to the forefront of the competition. "The Help" won audiences over and in doing so, secured a big night at the Academy Awards.

Oscars 2012 Predictions: Best Picture
While we appreciated the risk-taking 'Tree of Life,' safe bet is 'The Artist.'

Heading into Oscar night, a collection of safe nominations and clear favorites has led to a distinct lack of drama. For the past few months, no other film has led the awards conversation quite like "The Artist." An unlikely favorite, yes, but Michel Hazanavicius' ode to the silent-film era moved to the front sometime before the Golden Globes and stayed there.
In the days leading up to the ceremony, the biggest questions aren't who will win, but whether there will be any major surprises at all. Most Oscar analysts have locked their picks in by now, and the apparent answer is a resounding "probably not."
Is "The Artist" unstoppable? Who would we like to see win? Here are our picks for Best Picture:
Who Will Win: "The Artist." After stealing the early lead as favorite from "The Descendants," nothing has stood in the way of "The Artist." Even the most British movie of all time, "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy," couldn't beat the silent film at its own awards show, the BAFTAs. Oscar gold for Hazanavicius' feel-good love letter to cinema is essentially a foregone conclusion at this juncture. If you're looking for an Oscar-night surprise, look elsewhere.
Who Should Win: "The Tree of Life." Terrence Malick's all-encompassing look at life on this little blue ball is not only the most ambitious film of the nine nominees, but the only one that took any risks at all. Yes, "The Artist" goes without sound for most of its runtime, but the silence rarely goes any deeper than gimmick and relies on an already-established style of filmmaking. Malick, instead, went in an entirely different direction and made a movie on his terms, using his own unique sensibilities. Complaints about pretension are valid and should be acknowledged, but when the rest of the field plays out like safe bets, you have to respect that Malick is swinging for the fences.

Anthony Bourdain and his 4-year-old daughter Ariane were seen playing in the pool at their hotel in Miami on Friday (February 24). The celebrity chef's wife Ottavia wasn't seen with them.
The No Reservations star once said, "As a parent I finally joined the worldwide cult; the majority of the world who knows what it's like to love a little child. It's life changing. …I regularly find myself doing things I would never do."

'American Idol' Top 24: How To Tell Hallie Day From Heejun Han
We break down this year's remaining 'Idol' hopefuls, from Aaron Marcellus to Skylar Laine, and everyone in between.
By James Montgomery
Members of the "American Idol" Top 24

On Thursday, after approximately 4,256 hours of auditions, callbacks, comparisons, falsettos and fainting spells (not to mention the occasional bit of nudity and some stuff on a battleship), "American Idol" finally whittled the masses of dreamers down to the Top 24.
It was a ride, to say the very least, but at long last, we know the names and faces of the folks who will battle it out to become the heir to Scotty McCreery's crown. Of course, keeping track of all the hopefuls can get rather difficult (especially since so many of them are country singers), which is why we've once again taken it upon ourselves to break down each of them in handy-dandy bios. Because how else are you supposed to tell your Hallie Days from your Heejun Hans?
So here's our guide to the Top 24 — we're not even going to get into the whole "Surprise Save" that'll be unveiled next week ... haven't we been through enough already? — alphabetized and cross-referenced for your perusing pleasure.
Aaron Marcellus: Throwback soul singer too frequently overshadowed by groupmates (and fellow Top 24ers) Creighton Fraker and Jen Hirsch. Seems like he could have a moment at some point during the live shows. Sort of looks like Godfrey.
Adam Brock: Secretomotoristic father/crooner/possessor of magical handkerchief who barely made it to the Top 24. Kind of a combination of Casey Abrams and Ruben Studdard, only with better facial hair.
Baylie Brown: Pop-country pinup who returns to the competition after making a run as a teen. Could charitably be described as "Carrie Underwood Lite." Probably gets lots of dirty looks from Skylar Laine.
Brielle Von Hugel: Empirically named progeny of cloying stage mom, who, not surprisingly, carries herself as a diva-in-training. Wearer of impressively knitted half-blouses. Capable of putting some stank on it.
Chase Likens: Unassuming country dude who sort of recalls Neon Bible-era Win Butler. Vest enthusiast. Uh, yeah.
Chelsea Sorrell: Small-town gal whose childhood dreams included being both "a mom and a country singer." As far as we can tell, she's halfway there. Had some rough patches, still made the Top 24. Dropper of many "Y'alls."
Colton Dixon: Sorta-emo guy who looks like a Tim Burton illustration. Outlasted his sister during Hollywood Week, none too happy about that fact. Gives off a slightly Christian vibe, which, coupled with the fact that he's from Tennessee, probably means he knows Hayley Williams.
Creighton Fraker: Lithe-voiced/creatively haired cabaret singer who flaunted his lack of employment for maximum impact. Seen wearing fuzzy rabbit ears during "Idol" vignettes. Slightly odd, yet may be one of the best male singers in the competition.
Deandre Brackensick: Lion-maned teen with equally epic moniker, he's been down this path before. Finally made the Top 24, yet needs to find his zone to advance in the competition.
Eben Franckewitz: Polite 15-year-old Bieber-ite who bested David Leathers Jr. to nab the final guy's spot (outrage!) Overall lack of confidence nearly as glaring as his bad posture. Proud recipient of the coveted "You're cute!" endorsement from Jennifer Lopez.
Elise Testone: Likeable lifer who absolutely kills it every time she takes the stage. Raspy/sultry notes for days. Can put some stank on it. Still, will probably will get voted off early. If you squint, she kind of resembles Ke$ha.
Erika Van Pelt: Effervescent wedding singer with brassy voice. Kind of a surprise addition to the Top 24. Has a massive back tattoo, ala Crystal Bowersox, yet will probably not make it as far as the 'Sox.
Haley Johnsen: Vaguely indie smokeshow from the Pacific Northwest. Voice like a steam kettle, yet also capable of some stank when the situation demands it. Like Megan Joy, minus the tattoo sleeve.
Hallie Day: Former girl-group member/cautionary tale who appropriately owned Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive." Dark horse. Lips single-handedly keeping Blistex in business. Choice of husband a source of inspiration for slightly chunky dudes everywhere.
Heejun Han: Buttery-voiced, slightly catty people's champ. Seems to understand the inherent ridiculousness of this entire contest. Frequent hugger. Deflects any perceived criticisms (i.e. "He's kind of a jerk") by working with the mentally challenged. Cunning.
Hollie Cavanagh: Last girl in. Scouser/Southern accent makes her sound like Paul McCartney running a cattle auction. Good voice. Appears to be very nice, also appears to be channeling every single girl who sat behind you in Social Studies, neither of which bode well for her chances of winning.
Jen Hirsch: Big (big!)-voiced belter who may very well be the one to beat. Miles of stank. Likeable. Kind of recalls a supercharged Haley Reinhart, yet could definitely out-Reinhart Reinhart herself. We hope she wins.
Jeremy Rosado: Only member of the highly touted Leathers/Sprague/Carruba contingent to make the Top 24 (until Leathers gets in as the "Surprise Save" next week). R&B-esque upper register, yet may not possess the, uh, fortitude to impress voters.
Jessica Sanchez: Supremely driven 16-year-old who can sing the phonebook. Age belies her supreme diva-tude. Could see her winning the whole thing, could also see her flaming out when producers fail to secure correct shade of white linens for her dressing room. Maximum stank.
Joshua Ledet: Twitchy balladeer/preternaturally old soul with talent to spare, yet appears to lack the self confidence required to make a deep run. Makes goofy faces whilst singing, which only makes him more likeable.
Phillip Phillips: Oddball dreamboat/pawnshop employee whose bizarre name seems to suggest he had really mean parents. Probably wants to read you his poetry. Definitely owns hemp garments. Could conceivably win this whole thing if he stops with the whole "Dave Matthews foot shuffle" thing.
Reed Grimm: All-grown-up stage kid who is eternally on. Name recalls Marvel Comics supervillan. Occasionally breaks into ill-advised bouts of scatting. Made sure everyone knew he could play the drums. Sort of looks like Ethan from "Lost." Is annoying.
Shannon Magrane: Talented offspring of former MLB pitcher with career .460 winning percentage. Unwilling target of Steven Tyler's creepy (and borderline illegal) advances. Has undoubtedly met Harold Reynolds, which makes us jealous.
Skylar Laine: Sparkplug Southern gal who keeps getting compared to Bonnie Raitt. Can effectively handle an ATV, yet was also hospitalized during Hollywood Week. Will probably be outshined by both Brown and Sorrell, despite being more talented than either of them. Reminder that sometimes life isn't fair.
