Jennifer Lopez covers the October issue of
Cosmopolitan, and not only does the 44-year-old superstar amazing, but she shares a sweet smooch with beau Casper Smart and opens up about their relationship!
When asked about her romance with Casper, who is 18 years her junior, she says:
"For me, it’s about having a great partner to walk this life with. I have my own high standards for what I want in a partner and how I want to be treated. I bring a lot to the table. I’m not talking about material things but what I have to offer as a person – love and loyalty and all the things that make a good relationship ... It's funny, early on with Beau, I remember telling him how I have a real button on being ignored. And he was like, ‘Listen, if somebody ignores you, then forget them. They don't deserve to have your attention.' But it's funny. Sometimes when we don't get it, we try to get it in a negative way, you know?"
On admitting that performing at the Turkmenistan president's birthday party earlier this year was a huge mistake, J. Lo says:
"I know that being seen as a role model means taking responsibility for all my actions. I am human, and of course, sometimes I make mistakes. But I promise that when I fall, I get back up. When I am wrong, I will learn the lesson and move on to face other challenges. For me, that’s what creating your own life is. Doing your best work while being your best self."
On becoming confident with herself, she says:
"It was after I had kids to be honest…The biggest insecurity I had was my singing. Even though I had sold 70 million records, there was this feeling like, I’m not good at this. And while I was married to Marc, he helped me get over it. He kept telling me, ‘You’re the only one holding yourself back from reaching your full potential as a singer. You have to let go’…I was always so insecure and just kind of going along. Then I grew, little by little, and realized, wait a minute, this is not a fluke. I’m not a mistake – I work my ass off. And I know what I’m doing."

Despite rumors stating that Jada Pinkett-Smith and Will Smith were selling their $42 million Calabasas compound, the couple has come out to deny the claim. A rep for the Smiths told the
Daily Mail that the couple was
not moving and in fact staying in the home that they took seven years to build.
The much-talked about possible listing has sparked divorce rumors for the duo, who has been married since 1997 and who have two celebrity children, Willow and Jade, together. But looks like it was all just talk and the the Smiths are staying in the lux home.
The 25,000-square-foot home was featured in the September 2011 issue of
Architectual Digest. At the time, Pinkett-Smith told the publication that building the home was a "spiritual endeavor."
The Smith's Calabasas estate sits on 150 acres of land. Other impressive features include a recording studio, a sunken trampoline, a sand volleyball court, basketball and tennis courts, a lagoon-style pool that comes right up to the side of the house and there is even a meditation lounge. While the home took seven years to build, the Smiths have only been living in it for two years.

Superman?! More like super dad! Ben Affleck was spotted taking his girls Violet and Seraphina to get frozen yogurt in Brentwood, Calif., on Monday. Wearing a plaid shirt, dark jeans and boots, Ben was looking good while on daddy duty. The Oscar winner held on to his little ladies hands while en route to pick up their sweet treat!
That same day, Ben's bride took the girls and son Samuel to the park. The mom of three seems to be having just as much fun as her wee ones! Even wearing a cardigan and a dress, Jen was all over the playground twirling the girls, pushing Samuel down the slide and helping Seraphina balance herself on a beam.
We love how hands-on this couple is with their children. Looks like the everyone in the Garner/Affleck clan had a great day Labor Day!

Is there anything she can't do? Well, this might be a first...
Gisele Bundchen sings her version of The Kinks' song "All Day & All Of The Night" in a new behind-the-scenes clip for her ad campaign with H&M, and we love the Brazilian bombshell, but we doubt she's going to be cutting a record anytime soon!
Gisele's cover will be available on iTunes and H&M's website on September 12, and proceeds from each download will go to UNICEF. “I am so excited to be the face of H&M this autumn. I love the street style look, and that we can raise funds for a good cause. I hope everyone downloads my song!†Gis said in a statement.
Hey, at least it's for a good cause!

Scarlett Johansson attended the photo call for
Under the Skin at the Venice Film Festival, and while
she looks amazing, we're not so sure about the film she's promoting...
And it sounds like we're not the only ones. Johansson stars as an alien seductress in Jonathan Glazer's new sci-fi flick, and when it screened at the Telluride Film Festival last week, it left critics scratching their heads.
The Hollywood Reporter reports that a number of folks in the audience walked out of the theater and yup, the flick (which took NINE years to make) is still seeking a U.S. distributor. Scott Feinberg at
THR writes, "To me,
Under the Skin is a lot like another visually beautiful but plotless and pretentious film from a director who is capable of so much more." Eeks!
Fanboys will be delighted over the full-frontal nudity, but we have no idea how the special effects are and we felt like we were squinting the entire time we watched this brief teaser:
Thoughts?

We're not sure if Ireland Baldwin is missing beau Slater Trout or she just loooooves ice cream cupcake cups from Sprinkles, but this is quite a passionate pic!
Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger's 17-year-old daughter posted an Instagram video (see below) of herself seductively licking an ice cream cup and she wrote, "@sprinkles and I getting sloppy like two hormonal teens at a school dance ... MADE OUT WITH A CUP?! IT WAS ONE TIME!"
While she is quite the gym rat, we love the fact that the model indulges her sweet tooth -- and isn't shy to talk about it. In fact, earlier this year she posted an open letter on her Tumblr account slamming people who made nasty remarks about her weight. "I understand that I am not a size .008. What I don't fully understand is, what is the good in commenting on a photo of a 17-year-old girl calling her fat, ugly, etc?" she wrote. "I didn't expect it. It was really surprising to see how negative people can be towards someone they don’t even know."

If we were Liam -- we'd leave Miley at home too! Liam Hemsworth got sexy in a suit and tie while attending the world premiere for his brother Chris' new film
Rush at Leicester Square Gardens in London on Monday. Maybe the 23-year-old Aussie was sans his wild child fiancee because he didn't want her to pull a VMA and upstage him? Or maybe he was afraid she was going to twerk all over his married brother's crotch? Or maybe Liam finally kicked Miley to the curb? Whatever the reason -- we are glad to see the
Hunger Games star looking so studly and alone.
While Liam was dateless, big bro Chris certainly wasn't. The 30-year-old Hemsworth got snuggly with his wife, Spanish model Elsa Pataky, while on the red carpet. Showing some major PDA, the twosome, who are parents of daughter India, certainly seemed to use the premiere as a date night. At least one Hemsworth appears to be lucky in love!
Following the premiere, the Hemsworth boys and Pataky reportedly partied the night away at the premiere's after party at Marylebone One. Is Liam trying to forget his romance troubles? It certainly seems like it.
Rush, which is directed by Ron Howard, follows the 1976 rivalry between Formula One rivals James Hunt (Hemsworth) and Niki Lauda (Daniel Bruhl). The film races into theaters on Sept. 23.
