Alessandra Ambrosio walked the red carpet three months after giving birth to her first child in 2008, and this weekend she walked the runway at the Colcci fashion show while five months pregnant with baby No. 2!

The Victoria's Secret supermodel looked uber haute in two separate looks at Sao Paolo Fashion Week: a gray shift mini dress and a loose knit sweater paired with hot pants. Fellow Colcci spokesperson Ashton Kutcher was notably absent from the catwalk, but was spotted showing his support from the front row.

Alessandra and fiancé Jamie Mazur will welcome their second child in late spring. We're guessing that sharply dressed tot Anja Ambrosio Mazur is looking forward to being a big sister!

Looks like it's going to be a great 2012 for Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler. The couple just announced they're expecting their first baby! "We are thrilled to announce we are expecting our first child together," they told People in a statement Sunday. "It's an amazing time in our life and we can't wait to meet the new addition to our growing family."

The reality star and Bears quarterback have yet to release any other information about her bun in the oven. However, the former Hills actress was seen out shopping in Beverly Hills earlier today and there were no signs of a baby bump under her flowy shirt, so we imagine the 25-year-old is still in the beginning stages of her pregnancy. They'll have a summer baby, perhaps.

No word either on what this means for their wedding date. The two got engaged in early 2011, only to call the whole thing off at the end of July. They reconciled soon after and confirmed the wedding plans were back on just after Thanksgiving. "Sometimes, in order for things to get better, they have to end – even if it's momentarily," she explained when they announced their re-engagement.

Actor Kajol, last seen in Toonpur Ka Superhero, says she is extremely happy with the way her life has shaped up and the doting mother of two can’t stop gushing about her kids. “I am having a blast, I am having a great time, a fabulous time with my life right now.

I have two wonderful kids, I am enjoying myself thoroughly. I am glowing because I am spending so much time with my kids,” the 37-year-old said here while launching a bag store, Malaga Bespoke.

The actor admits she is not considering any new projects for the time being, but hopes to be part of a good project in the near future. “I hope so (to do a film)… but only when the right time comes, when the right offer comes, not before that,” said Kajol, who won the Filmfare award for best actress for her film My Name is Khan in 2010.

Kajol recently lent her voice for Karan Johar‘s Koochie Koochie Hota Hai, an animated version of her 1998 film Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. She will also be seen in a guest appearance in Johar and Shahrukh Khan’s co-production Student Of The Year.

With another blockbuster success under her belt, actress Kajal Agarwal sure is ruling the roost in Tollywood. The actress, who seems to be the director’s first choice, has bagged her second B’town film. High on the success of Bodyguard, she talks to us about her link-up with actor Prabhas and other rumors.

The actress agrees to have signed another Bollywood venture, but will wait for the production house to announce the project first before naming it. She says, “I have signed a nice movie, and am excited about the film. The shooting will begin in March. More details will be announced in February.”

Talking about the rumour doing the rounds that she was spending time with Prabhas in Bangkok, she says, “It’s not true. I was with my family for New Year. If there is something, I will surely reveal it. It's just that I have two films with him that linked me with him. If I work with people it doesn’t mean I am dating them. We are good friends and he is a wonderful co-star to work with, other than that there is nothing. We were not hanging out together anywhere,” she says adding, “I don’t have many friends in Tollywood. Only Samantha is close to me while others are mostly my school friends. I am a very private person,” she concludes.

On being involved with and excited about Genelia’s wedding she says, “I am not that close to her, but am excited and happy for her finding a great life partner.” The actress has five releases this year and is working with Surya, Vijay while her Hindi co-star is yet to be announced.

Cindy Crawford has handed her 10-year-old daughter Kaia to the racy Italian luxury brand Versace to model it’s new children’s line. She looks over-sexualized in heavy makeup. Welcome to the latest modeling trend.

Kaia is one of a handful of pre-teen and early-teen models posing for fashion shoots for a number of top designer brands. The issue isn’t so much their age; rather the girls often wear adult-style makeup and clothes, even though they are modeling for children.

Anais Gallegher, the 11-year-old daughter of former Oasis singer-songwriter Noel Gallagher is also modeling professionally. Gallegher is signed with Select Model Management, which also represents top models like Agyness Deyn, Natasha Poly and Victoria’s Secret model Erin Heatherton.

Kate Moss Sis Lottie Debuts as Model
Anais has already posed for a shoot with renowned fashion photographer Mario Testino, who has photographed Kate Moss, Princess Diana and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, William and Kate. Anais, who turns 12 on Jan. 27, is featured on the agency’s Web site.

Supermodel Moss’ half-sister Charlotte Moss, known as Lottie, has also debuted as a professional model, and she’s only 13. Kate was a year older than Lottie when she started modeling. Lottie posed for her first “test shoot” last October with up-and-coming fashion photographer Andrea Carter-Bowman.

But not all pre- and young-teen models are children with celebrity connections. Thylane Blondeau is one of the hottest new models in French fashion. She’s 10 years old. Blondeau caused an uproar when she posed for an adult style fashion spread in Vogue Paris.

Kaia, Crawford’s daughter with husband Rande Gerber, has an in with Versace. Cindy was a favorite of the late-Gianni Versace during the 1990s. His sister, Donatella, now runs the brand.

Thylane Blondeau  Uproar Over Kiddie Models
For her part, Crawford is delighted with Kaia’s campaign. “I’m so thrilled that Kaia was chosen to be part of the first Young Versace Campaign,” she said in a statement. I have so many fond memories of the times I spent with Gianni and Donatella. There is something so very special about the House of Versace.”

Crawford said she was at the shoot throughout.
“Like her mother, Kaia has a very special gift. The camera really, really loves her,” Donatella added. “Having Cindy on-set for the shoot took me back to all the amazing Avedon shoots we worked on together. It was such a special treat watching Kaia walk in her mother’s footsteps!”

Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott were behind the lens. The campaign coincides with the opening of the first Young Versace boutique in Milan.

Want to watch Katharine McPhee's new musical show Smash before its February 6 premiere? Just head on over to iTunes. Starting today you can watch the full pilot of NBC's buzzy new series by downloading it for free on Apple iTunes, Amazon Video on Demand, Xbox/Zune, Playstation, Samsung MediaHub, or Vudu. The premiere episode will also be streaming for free on NBC.com and Hulu starting January 23.

So why is NBC, which struggled in the ratings last fall, giving everyone the Smash goods for free? The network is hoping that positive word of mouth will help get people excited for the show's real premiere, which airs following the Super Bowl. NBC really (really) needs this Spielberg-produced series about the behind the scenes drama of a Marilyn Monroe-themed Broadway show to be a big hit, and they're hoping that an unconventional promotion campaign will help Smash have a stellar opening.

American Idol alum Katharine McPhee plays a musical theater newcomer that desperately wants to nab the starring role. She hit up the red carpet at the Golden Globes last night and chatted with MTV about the big name guest stars that Smash has in store for viewers this season.

"Well, we have Uma Thurman, who's not a pop star but a movie star. She's actually shooting with us already," McPhee revealed. "[One Republic frontman] Ryan Tedder is a guest star. So he's a pop star and an amazing writer. Oh god, and Nick Jonas. We're doing pretty good for the first season."

When asked about comparisons to Glee, the other big time musical television series, McPhee had nothing but nice things to say. "We're just actually really grateful that Glee has opened the door and has made music work on television."

Smash also stars Debra Messing and Anjelica Houston. Check out a preview of the series below, then head on over to iTunes to watch the full premiere episode!

Providing much-needed funding to a few fortunate individuals, the 2012 Film Independent Filmmaker Grant and Spirit Awards Nominees Brunch took place at BOA Steakhouse in West Hollywood, California.

The non-profit arts organization's pre-awards show event was attended by stars including Nikki Reed, Elizabeth Olsen and Shailene Woodley, while Mark Duplass and Sarah Paulson hosted the casual gathering.

During the course of the brunch, the winners of four Spirit Awards filmmaker grants were announced - as writer/director Mark Jackson, producer Sophia Lin, director Heather Courtney and directors Benjamin Murray and Alysa Nahmias of "Unfinished Spaces" were bestowed with funding from Film Independent.

Talking about the initiative, Film Independent Co-President Josh Welsh said, “We’re so appreciative to Audi of America, Nokia, Piaget and Jameson Irish Whiskey for funding cash prizes as part of the 2012 Film Independent Spirit Awards. In addition to industry recognition the Spirit Awards provides, this kind of direct financial support makes a meaningful difference. It allows our grant winners to pay some bills as they take the next natural step in their careers, and it brings extra attention to their compelling and provocative stories."

“At Film Independent, we exist to provide a community for independent filmmakers, and the brunch is one way we bring together current and past Spirit Award nominees to, first celebrate them, but also to introduce them to one another prior to awards ceremony. The event especially shines a spotlight on the talented group of emerging film artists, selected by our blue-ribbon committees, who should be on the radar of the film industry. The grant nominees and winners are part of the next generation of filmmakers we expect to inspire film lovers for years to come,” added Co-President Sean Mc Manus.

The first red carpet arrival event of the year did not disappoint. There were so many great gowns (Vanessa Hudgens, Lea Michele, Miley Cyrus even had a nice dress) and so many not great ones (Demi Lovato, Ginnifer Goodwin and oh dear, Ashley Greene).

Jane (Erica Dasher) had to pull the ultimate “Fred Flinstone” on the Jan. 10 episode of Jane By Design when she realized her school formal was on the same night as Donovan Decker’s huge spring fashion preview show. And as if that wasn’t bad enough, the big event also marked Gray’s (Andie MacDowell) return to New York! That’s right — there’s no longer a computer screen to protect little Jane from Gray’s fiery dragon-lady breath.

Fortunately, things ended up working out pretty well for Jane. Again. When the final model’s dress came undone at the last minute, she ended up wearing one of Jane’s own designs — and the crowd loved it! So for those of you keeping score at home, that’s two weeks in a row now that Jane has gotten totally lucky and avoided Gray’s wrath. (Am I the only one waiting for her to screw up?)

Jane’s love life, meanwhile, didn’t fare quite as well as her career this week. The super-dreamy Nick Fadden (Matthew Atkinson) asked her to meet him at the dance — thus giving her more attention in one night than she’s gotten from since their awkward “seven minutes in heaven” experience in middle school — but because she had to run back and forth to the fashion preview, she ended up missing him at the end of the night. She returned to the dance to find an empty ballroom. (Maybe she can’t have it all.)

But Nick wasn’t the only guy showering Jane with attention. Jeremy (Rowly Dennis) managed to detach himself from India (India de Beaufort) long enough to spend some quality time with Jane — which almost immediately meant him trying to attack her mouth with his own. But Jane wasn’t having any of it, and she totally earned my respect by brushing him off. I see a nice friendship evolving between those two, and considering it would be illegal if they did anything sexual together, let’s hope it stays strictly platonic.

I’d also like to take a minute to lavish Billy (Nick Roux) with all the praise he deserves. Just when I thought I couldn’t love him more after the show’s premiere, he totally stepped up his awesomeness in two ways this week: Not only did he help Jane pull off her night-long marathon between the dance and the preview, but he also finally stood up to Lulu (Meagan Tandy.) He was sick of her keeping their “relationship” a secret, so he broke things off before she got a chance to break his heart.
