Jessica Simpson is taking a bit longer to lose the baby weight than originally planned!

Just a few weeks after giving birth to baby Maxwell on May 1, the new mom had her first Weight Watchers weigh-in, and she's gained about 70 pounds, according to US Weekly.

Jess has been hired as the new spokesperson for the weight-loss company, and her $4 million contract requires that she shed 20-30 lbs -- at least! -- by the end of August, or she misses out on the big payday. If that 's not enough motivation, we don't know what is!

"Jessica has always had issues with junk food," a Simpson pal told the mag, and she's enlisted her mom, Tina, and a few pals to do the program with her, "to help keep herself in check," the insider says.

Simpson, who celebrated her 32 birthday on July 10, has also been breast-feeding to help slim her down, and is given up those high-calorie margaritas she loves so much.

You can do it, Jess!

Looking drop-dead sexy in a skimpy pink and white striped bikini, Tara Reid was more than happy to pose for an impromptu photo shoot for boyfriend Joshua Darval while on a private yacht in Saint Tropez, on Friday afternoon.

The American Reunion star is currently vacationing in France with her beau and with actor Stephen Dorff, after spending time in Cannes and Portofino, Italy last month.

Reid is becoming quite the sexy jet setter!

Showing off her fabulous figure in a black Yves Saint Laurent blouse and skintight black & white striped pants, Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie looked gorgeous while treating her mom to dinner at Mr. Chow's in Beverly Hills, on Friday night.

The sexy singer is currently being considered for a judge's spot on the next season of American Idol, after Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler announced this week that they will not be returning to the show.

It's also been reported that Adam Lambert, Miley Cyrus, Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry and Fergie's band mate Will.i.am are all being considered as potential judges for next season.

Who would you like to see fill J. Lo's spot?

After Sylvester Stallone's son Sage was discovered unresponsive in his home in Studio City just shortly before 3pm on Friday afternoon, Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter arrived with police at the scene and confirmed the 36-year-old was dead.

No suicide note was found, Winter said, but prescription bottles were recovered from the home on Mulholland Drive, though Winter could not say what kind of medication bottles or how many, and no suicide note was found.

Winter said an autopsy will be performed within the next few days and while investigators will begin looking into Stallone's medical history, the toxicology tests will take several weeks to come back.

The Rocky actor was at Comic-Con in San Diego to promote Expendables 2 with co-star Arnold Schwarzenegger when he received the devastating news, saying in a statement through his publicist: "Sylvester Stallone is devastated and grief-stricken over the sudden loss of his son. His compassion and thoughts are with Sage's mother, Sasha."

George Braunstein, Stallone's attorney, said friends and acquaintances had become concerned about the 36-year-old when they hadn't heard from him in several days, and a housekeeper was the first to discover his body. It is believed that Sage had been dead for several days before being found, and was living in a room cluttered with trash which the staff was instructed never to enter.

Sage Moonblood Stallone was the oldest of Stallone's children with first wife Sasha Czack, and co-starred with his father in two films; 1990's Rocky V and 1996's Daylight.

You know what they say... a couple that plays together, stays together!

Miley Cyrus and her fiance Liam Hemsworth took advantage of the California heat today and went skating around their Toluca Lake neighborhood. The former Disney starlet upped temperatures in mini jean shorts, a grey tank, and girlie pink Vans sneakers. Not to be outdone by his lady love, The Hunger Games actor sported a blue beanie, Converse, and a white tank that showed off his muscles.

These lovebirds seem to prefer a low key valley lifestyle! We always spot the engaged pair on walks with their many dogs, so it doesn't surprise us they've decided to venture into street surfing together.

Maybe the mysterious marks on Miss Miley's arms were just a bad case of road rash caused by a nasty spill on the pavement?

If this was Suri Cruise, we know there would be heels in that bag, but we're guessing Violet opted for something more sensible!

Jennifer Garner took her eldest daughter to get some new kicks at Harry Harris in Brentwood today, and little V looked pleased with her purchases on the way out! This supermom sure has her hands full these days with three young kids, but if you believe the recent reports, she and Ben are thinking about adding a fourth member to the family!

"Jen is happy with three now that she has a boy. Ben wants four. The marriage is rock solid," a source revealed to Us Weekly.

The 40-year-old actress and her hubby Ben Affleck have a busy couple months ahead, so if that's the plan they better have a nanny! The brunette beauty is gearing up to promote her new film The Odd Life of Timothy Green, and the Argo actor is currently filming Runner, Runner with Justin Timberlake in Puerto Rico.

Plus, Ben's lady love just got her pre-pregnancy body back!

We love how Gwen Stefani is comfortable rockin' old school Doc Marten boots. But we'll admit, the No Doubt singer looks fabulous no matter what she's wearing!

Gavin Rossdale's wifey and her bandmate Tony Kanal arrived at the recording studio in a great mood. We have a feeling they're ecstatic that they're new album Push and Shove will be dropping on September 25th.

The video for their first single “Settle Down” will be released next week. Can't wait to hear their new sound!

Break out the bubbly and cigars!

Kelsey Grammer and his wife Kayte welcomed baby girl Faith Evangeline Elisa today, but the arrival was bittersweet. The couple, who wed in February 2011, announced they were expecting twins earlier this year, but sadly miscarried the other baby.

"Tragically, we lost the little boy shortly thereafter. This was not something we cared to make known publicly at the time. It was unspeakably painful and we know that people will understand our desire to keep the news private then, as we know they will respect our privacy in this matter now," the new parents said in a statement to Us Weekly.

The Frasier star and his British spouse are still grappling with the tragic loss, but insist they are focused on the future with their little one.

"A glorious birth with a lingering sadness is ours today. We choose to celebrate the life that has been given to us. We proudly announce Faith to the world today looking forward to the days ahead and the child yet to come," they shared.

Welcome to the world Faith!
