Dwayne The Rock Johnson and his longtime girlfriend, Lauren Hashian, are expecting their first child together. The Rock recently gushed about Hashian during an interview with Esquire. He says, “We do these stories and we talk so much about the business end, the success end, but then Lauren isn’t mentioned and my daughter Simone isn’t mentioned. I always like making sure we find the balance and my home life is in there and Lauren Hashian is in there and my daughter is in there. You gotta get the better half in there,” Johnson is already dad to 14-year-old daughter, Simone, with ex-wife Dany Garcia.

 

Jennifer Garner is leaning on one of her famous pals to help her move on following her split with Ben Affleck earlier this summer. Jennifer Aniston has reportedly been very supportive of her friend during such a difficult time. Aniston knows what it’s like to have a broken heart because her ex-husband Brad Pitt left her for Angelina Jolie.  A source says, “They first met at the Oscars nearly 10 years ago, so when Ben and Jen’s marriage fell apart, she sent Jen flowers and a bottle of wine, telling her she was there for her.” Garner, who was married to Affleck for 10 years, has also had to deal with the fall out surrounding the actor’s alleged affair with the nanny.

 

Fans of “Saturday Night Live” will remember Turd Ferguson on its parody version of “Celebrity Jeopardy!” Wednesday night Alex Trebek was forced to say Ferguson’s name during “Final Jeopardy.” The category was Oscar-nominated songs, and the clue was as follows: “This song from a 1999 animated film about censorship had a word censored from its Oscar performance.” A contestant named Talia, who had only $600 left, didn’t come up with the right one. But she DID offer the next best thing: “What is the love ballad of Turd Ferguson?” Ferguson is an alias for Burt Reynolds, or at least as he was played by Norm Macdonald on the famous “SNL” skit.
