Halle Berry is one lucky lady!
The very pregnant actress celebrated her 47th birthday with her adorable daughter Nahla and new husband Olivier Martinez.
The gorgeous star ditched the makeup and donned a flowy white dress to dine with her family at Craig's in West Hollywood. Her actual birthday was on August 14. Olivier carried Nahla as she held on to her mom's colorful present. We wonder what they bought the woman who has everything.
Regardless of how old she is, she will always be ageless in our book.

Lindsay Lohan may have dropped some bad habits, but she apparently still smokes ... at the worst possible times.
The actress Instagrammed a photo of herself on Friday brushing her teeth while holding a lit cigarette in the other hand. Ummm, that kind of defeats the purpose of brushing, Linds! Unfortunately, we've seen her do much more bizarre things in the past.
"Oh to brush my teeth on set @ #workhard -never felt so good! Lol," she wrote in the caption. Lilo is filming a
guest appearance on HBO's
Eastbound & Down for its upcoming fourth and final season. She reportedly plays an adult version of Kenny Powers' illegitimate daughter and will be shooting a wedding scene set in the future.
Aside from cleaning her teeth, it looks like she's also cleaning up her act. She crated a new website (lindsaylohan.com) on Friday, featuring photos, videos, and a style blog. Let's hope this guest spot helps relaunch her once thriving career.

Jennifer Lopez is still Jenny from the
American Idol block.
After months of speculation, her boyfriend Casper Smart confirmed that J.Lo will be returning to the reality series next season.
The dancer was promoting his new nuvoTV show
A Step Away when he told
E! News Jen was coming back to
Idol. He mistakenly thought Fox had already made the announcement.
However, Fox president Kevin Reilly did say that the network had made Lopez an offer. "Jennifer has been a close part of the show all along … there have been discussions there," he said at the Television Critics Association summer press tour.
Lopez, who served as judge in 2011 and 2012, has reportedly signed a $15 million contact. She will join another familiar face -- Keith Urban -- for
AI's 13th season.
Former contestants Jennifer Hudson, Kelly Clarkson, Clay Aiken, and Adam Lambert have all been courted to replace Mariah Carey, Randy Jackson, and Nicki Minaj. Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, and Fergie are also allegedly in the running for the final one or two slots.
Auditions are underway for Season 13, which premiers in January.

We can already hear the wedding bells!
Kanye West went shopping for wedding bands for girlfriend Kim Kardashian at Cartier in Beverly Hills on Friday. Although he checked out several rings, the rapper ultimately left the jewelry store empty-handed. However, he did pay for something, so he must have ordered a custom ring. We wouldn't expect anything less from the over-the-top musician.
An X17 photographer on the scene said Kanye was eying the biggest rocks the jeweler carried.
"Kanye was looking really carefully at wedding bands, like he was making a big decision. And by big, I mean, BIG — the stuff he was looking at was the most expensive, biggest diamonds in the whole store."
It looks like rumors about the couple's upcoming over-the-top Paris wedding may be true, after all.
Us Weekly reported last week that Kimye has a French destination wedding "in the works." "He wants something really cool and big and over-the-top," a source told the mag. "They'll most likely have a destination wedding. Kanye has never been married before and wants a big wedding. So Kim is getting used to the idea again."

#MayIHumblySuggestYouKissAndMakeUp
Katie Couric is speaking out about Kim Kardashian's insinuation that she's two-faced. The journalist told
E! News that her gift is genuine and she didn't mean to offend Kim Kardashian when she questioned why the reality star was famous in an
In Touch article.
Her remarks prompted Kim to
Instagram a photo on Friday of Katie's gift for baby North West and card that read, "Dear Kim and Kanye, Congratulations on the birth of your baby girl! ... And may I humbly suggest you continue the K tradition ... Fondly, Katie Couric." She captioned it with the hashtags #IHateFakeMediaFriends and #MayIHumblySuggestYouNotSendGiftsThenTalkS--t.
"I've met Kim before and I think she's a really sweet person," Katie said in a statement. "I was responding to a reporter's question, and explaining how I'm intrigued by the public's fascination with her family. I didn't mean to hurt her feelings. The gift is genuine, and I'm happy for Kim and Kanye."
Sister Khloé Kardashian had applauded Kim's post, tweeting, "God I love this new side of u!" Kanye seems to be rubbing off on her.

Chris Brown made progress in court earlier this week when a judge dropped his hit-and-run charge, but he's now suffered a setback regarding his assault case against Rihanna.
The R&B bad boy has been sentenced to complete 1,000 more hours of community service. The Los Angeles District Attorney accused him Friday of fudging his records.
The D.A. had revoked Chris' probation last month in the wake of the hit-and-run allegation, but reinstated it yesterday ... and then some. Chris essentially has to start over from scratch; he didn't receive any credit for work completed since his 2009 conviction. The singer was originally sentenced to 180 days of community service -- 1,440 hours of labor.
His service must also now be supervised by L.A. County officials so he can't complete the labor in his home state of Virginia. He has the choice between highway cleanup, beach cleanup, probation alternative work services, and graffiti removal. We have an inkling he won't choose the latter.

Kylie Jenner grabbed sushi with two gal pals at Sugarfish in Calabasas on Friday, and the ladies were awfully dressed up for a lunch date!
Despite reports that Kylie and her sister Kendall have been "out of control" and throwing wild parties at their Malibu beach pad, the other day Kylie wrote on Twitter, "I honestly don't know where these beach house party rumors came about. haven't thrown ONE 'party' there..."
Well, wait ... what was that big bash on the
4th of July then? It does seem like they've had a few fiestas there this summer, and
Radar reports, “All hell has broken loose at the summer rental house. Kendall and Kylie are completely out of control -- they host ragers all week. The parties fill the house and boys are definitely invited ... Neighbors find teens passed out on the sand. The beach is littered with cans and spent fireworks." Um, when are we gonna see that on their reality show?!

With Eddie Cibrian and "bonus mom" LeAnn Rimes out of town, it looks like this reality star is making the most of her time with her brood!
Brandi Glanville took sons Mason and Jake on a shopping trip to Toys R Us today, and the
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star showed off her model body and trim legs in a short floral dress, which she dressed down with a pair of flip flops.
We're dying to know how the
Drinking & Tweeting author feels about her ex-husband's new show with the country singer? After all, the controversial couple threw a fit about making sure that Jake and Mason didn't appear on
her Bravo show, but now they intend to have actors portray the single mom and her children on
LeAnn & Eddie.
Looking good is the best revenge, and LeLe doesn't hold a candle to Miss Glanville!
