It is the universal language!

Gisele Bundchen appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on Monday, and the supermodel talked all about how she learned to speak English by listening to music after moving from Brazil to N.Y.C. to pursue a modeling career.

"My wonderful cassette tapes, Boyz II Men and Mariah Carey, saved my life!" she confessed.

"They were great teachers, so I have to thank them one day if I ever meet them in person. They were very inspiring," she added.

The Victoria's Secret stunner isn't ready to ditch her native tongue for good, though, and has decided to teach her 4-year-old son Portuguese. As for husband Tom Brady?

"He tells me that he speaks two languages... football and English," she joked.

Beautiful, smart, and a sense of humor?! This girl's got it all!

Wendy Williams famously shed a ton of weight a few years back so we knew the 49-year-old talk show host had a hot bikini bod, but we had no idea she was rocking a giant tattoo on her stomach!

Before her flight to New York got delayed, Williams posted the above shot on Instagram and wrote, "I know it's FREEZING, but I'll be BACK TOMORROW with all NEW SHOWS and JUICY, JUICY#HOTTOPICS...get ready...I AM!!! Happy New Year! Weather in #NYC got me stuck and I couldn't fly home."

After a long day of connecting flights, Wendy finally made it home and tweeted, "The EAGLE has landed!!!! See you in the morning honey child!!"

But is one of her juicy topics going to be her tummy tat? We're dying to hear more about it!

Aloha!

Reese Witherspoon and husband Jim Toth touched down at LAX last night after spending time in Hawaii for pal Justin Bartha's wedding, and the couple seemed glad to be home from their tropical getaway.

The Oscar winner was all smiles as she made her way through the terminal, and was even nice enough to stop and take some pictures with fans. She really is America's sweetheart!

We wonder if the bubbly blonde actress knew Mr. Bartha's new bride Lia Smith was expecting the couple's first child?!

Well that's bad news!

Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn just announced she will no longer be competing in the upcoming Sochi Winter Olympics due to a right knee injury.

"An MRI showed an MCL sprain, which coupled with the torn ACL, has made it impossible to stabilize her knee and be ready to safely ski again next month," said her publicist in a statement this morning.

On Dec. 21 in Val d' Isere, France, Vonn reinjured her right knee. The Olympian has been plagued with knee injuries over the past year -- she tore the anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament in her knee last February and then partially tore the same ACL in November. The competition in Val d' Isere was the 29-year-old's second World Cup stop since the injuries.

"Vonn will have surgery shortly and is expected to make a full recovery in time for the 2014/15 World Cup season and the 2015 World Alpine Ski Championships in Vail-Beaver Creek," the statement said.

"In looking ahead, I have every ounce of confidence that Lindsey will be in the starting gate next World Cup season ready to compete," said Bill Marolt, president of the U.S. Skiing and Snowboard Association.

The news is sure to come as quite a blow to the gold medalist. Tiger Woods' main squeeze She has won four overall World Cup championships with three consecutive titles in 2008, 2009, and 2010, and then again in 2012. At the 2010 Winter Olympics, Vonn came home with the gold medal in downhill skiing. The sports star has also won six consecutive World Cup season titles in the downhill (2008–2013), four consecutive titles in Super G (2009–2012), and three consecutive titles in the combined (2010–2012).

The 2014 Winter Olympics will occur in Sochi, Russia from Feb. 7-23.

Leonardo DiCaprio makes an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Tuesday, and the 39-year-old actor chats about shooting The Wolf Of Wall Street and (gasp!) getting stuck IN a cage with a great white shark.

On shooting the scene in which Jonah Hill's character hurls ham onto his face, Leo tells Ellen:

"I appreciate that and it all resulted in this insane sequence in the end where Jonah decides to stuff ham into his mouth as well and crashes into a plate glass table and we were doing this CPR sequence and you know the big challenge that day we had to do 70 takes because they couldn't get this ham to stick on my face and they had to put K-Y Jelly and there's literally a guy there behind this giant window with a plastic spoon just flicking ham on my face all day long as I'm doing this insane sequence. But it was almost, it was one of the most surreal things I've ever done in my entire career."

Leo doesn't touch on the criticism the film has received for its excessive nudity, but he does talk about something even more interesting -- nearly dying in South Africa when a great white shark busted into his cage. "I went scuba diving looking for sharks and I had a huge fear of sharks and when I did Blood Diamond in 2006 -- I actually got stuck in a cage with a great white, which was awesome."

Ellen asked, "What do you mean it was in with you? How did you survive that?" to which Leo replied, "They actually said in 30 years this is has never happened but the tuna kind of got stuck in the top of the cage and the great white kept on and tried to bite it and went into the cage with me and half of it's body was in and out and I flattened down at the bottom and it was this far away and it chomped a few times, but I survived it. And the work that they're doing is great, they're protecting sharks as well so I don't want to, you know ... I don’t wanna do that anymore but I don't want to discount their work because they're doing great stuff, but it was absolutely terrifying."

We're glad Leo made it out in one piece! Check out his chat about the shark incident below:

He's known for his bad temper, so this was probably for the best!

Sean Penn grabbed dinner at Craig's in West Hollywood last night, and the actor was escorted to his car by three police officers after his meal! We guess they were making sure he didn't try to give any photographers a beat down!

The Gangster Squad star's rumored new lady love Charlize Theron didn't come along for the outing, and we hope she's not the jealous type, because the Hollywood bad boy was spotted sharing a cigarette with none other than Paris Hilton!

After movie dates and sleepovers and Hawaiian vacations, we're pretty sure the I Am Sam star and the South African blonde beauty are definitely an item, so we think it's time to give them a celeb couple name!

Has Gwen Stefani had an off day with her fashion at all during her pregnancy? We're hard pressed to find a photo of the singer looking anything less than fabulous, and seeing as she's over seven months along, that's quite a feat!

Yesterday Gwen made her weekly visit to get acupuncture, and when she emerged from her appointment she looked relaxed and in a very pleasant mood.

Over the weekend Gwen and her two sons returned to L.A. after a week-long ski trip up north in Mammoth Lakes, and it doesn't matter whether she's in snow gear or Marc Jacobs, she always looks incredible!

Not only is this picture absolutely adorable, but we can't get over how great Rachel Zoe looks -- she gave birth to her second child less than three weeks ago!

The celeb stylist and her oldest son Skyler ran errands in Beverly Hills on Monday, and the two fed a parking meter and went about their business. Even though Rachel totally covered up her body in a black maxi dress, we're fairly certain that she's already lost the 5 pounds she appeared to gain during her pregnancy.

Rachel and hubby Rodger Berman welcomed son Kaius Jagger on December 22, and last week the proud parents shared a photo from the newborn's bris. Wonder when she's going to bring the little guy on his first shopping trip? Skyler got started pretty early...
