Kate Hudson's romance with baseball star ALEX RODRIGUEZ is getting serious - she has scrapped her annual celebrity Halloween party so she can concentrate all her efforts on cheering her boyfriend on in the World Series.

The slugger will be stepping up to the plate at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on Saturday (31 Oct 09) as his New York Yankees play the Philadelphia Phillies and Hudson would rather cheer her man on than hang out with stars.

A pal tells Life & Style magazine, 'Kate looks forward to her Halloween party and always tries to outdo herself, but it wasn’t even a question to do it this year. As much as she would love to invite everyone to her house, Alex is much more important.'

And Rodriguez needs all the support his team can get - the Yankees are down one game after losing to the Phillies in New York on Wednesday night (28 Oct 09). Game Two is in New York on Thursday night (29 Oct 09).

Two months without an update on this page... I'm ashamed!!! I hope you can understand that it's sometimes difficult for us to work on the site when we have so many things to deal with in our personal lives. You know... Priorities and all that! Oh well, I'll do my best to bring you a few things here and there whenever I can, and for today I have screen captures of "Bride Wars", scans of "New Woman" (2007) and "Shop 'til you drop" (2004). The thumbnails below are just a preview, don't hesitate and click on them to view all the pictures we have. See you soon!

Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson are planning to marry in June.

The couple - who have had an on/off relationship since 2006 - decided they were ready to commit after enjoying a romantic holiday together in France in February. A source said: “They realized how devoted they are to each other. They don’t want to ever be apart again. Kate and Owen don’t feel the need for flashy engagement rings, they’re planning to tie the knot in June.”

The couple are said to be torn between having their wedding at Kate’s mother Goldie Hawn’s house in Aspen or Owen’s home in Hawaii. They have decided to keep the ceremony small, and Kate - who has a five-year-old son Ryder with her ex-husband Chris Robinson - is shopping for a wedding dress.

A source added to the National Enquirer magazine: “She looked at some designers when she and Owen were in Paris. She’s really into Dior but hasn’t chosen anything yet. She’ll probably wear something simple and flowing. Owen and Ryder have bonded so well since he and Kate first started dating. Owen already thinks of Ryder as his son. Owen is ready to have kids of his own with Kate, his biological clock is ticking.”

Hey! I didn't have much time to keep an eye on what Kate was working on but Camila sent in this new picture of NINE and I thought you too might want to see it! I also added some old scans, several COSMOPOLITAN magazines scans to be exact.

The 2009 Tribeca Film Festival, presented by American Express, the founding sponsor of the Festival, today announced its line-up of short films. The Festival received 2463 short film submissions this year, and 46 have been selected for participation to be presented in six thematic programs. Among the highlights is a short narrative written and directed by Tom Everett Scott, as well as a documentary narrated by Richard Gere. Directors making return visits to the Festival include Jason DaSilva, Brian Durnin, Paula Gaitán, Ken Jacobs and Mark Street.

This year’s Festival shorts are a culmination of works from across the globe, including Cuba, Brazil, Norway, Italy, South Korea and Australia. The voices behind these works range from first-time to veteran filmmakers that include animators, graphic artists and actors taking the helm behind the camera. Collectively, through captivating narratives and gripping documentaries, they tell stories about life’s lessons drawn from dreams, desires and the coming-of-age experience.

“The films in this year’s program represent a strong showcase in the craft of short filmmaking. It's exciting that as digital content platforms continue to emerge, short films are accessible to, and being watched by an increasingly larger audience.” said Maggie Kim, Tribeca Film Festival shorts programmer.

"These six thematic programs contain elements that everyone can relate to - from growing up to dealing with work issues to being faced with irrevocable decisions. It's a solid line-up with narrative, documentary and experimental short films all of which express a unique way of storytelling in this format,” said Sharon Badal, Tribeca Film Festival shorts programmer.

Their relationship has had more twists and turns than any movie either have starred in – but KATE HUDSON and OWEN WILSON are firmly back together and planning to start a family.

After going public with their renewed romance in Paris earlier this week, the pair are ready to take the relationship to the next level.

Owen tried to kill himself after they split in 2007, but has now put his troubles firmly behind him and is ready to settle down.

A pal of the Wedding Crashers actor said: "Kate and Owen initially got back together three months ago after realising they couldn't live without each other. Now they are ready to become parents.

Kate has been desperate for a brother or sister for RYDER - her first child with ex-husband CHRIS ROBINSON - for some time. It was a stumbling block previously with Owen. He's always had a difficult time committing, but this time it's different.

Kate was with him throughout his recovery and that made Owen realise how much he loves her. They've discussed the idea of becoming parents at length and Kate has seen a change in Owen.

He is now is truly committed and is showing a new-found maturity. He loves the idea of being a dad and has told Kate that he's ready when she is, but the sooner, the better!"

The source added: "Kate is over the moon and really wants to start a family with Owen now she feels that he has finally grown up. The fact that he is ready to make that commitment to her has given her faith in the relationship.

Kate's family are all really behind the relationship as well after seeing how Owen has turned it around. Everyone is now confident the relationship will work out long-term and they will be together forever."

Yesterday, Kate Hudson spent a bit less than 10 minutes on "Live with Regis and Kelly" to promote her movie "Bride Wars". It was a short but cute interview, and I made a few screen captures for you :

A stellar cast of Kate Hudson, Penelope Cruz, Nicole Kidman and Marion Cotillard gathered to pose for a Vogue shoot.



Clad in elegant eveningwear, the four A-listers must have been craving a cooling dip in the sea as they waited in the sun for the crew to get the equipment ready. At least they had an umbrella-wielding Nicole keeping the stifling rays out of harm’s way.
