Celine Dion's Struggle for a Second Baby
Originally posted 02/10/2010 07:00AM
After four unsuccessful rounds of in vitro fertilization, Céline Dion is not giving up hope for a second child, she tells PEOPLE in an exclusive cover story.
"I'm going to try until it works," says Dion, 41, who has been giving herself daily hormone shots – and enduring the roller-coaster ride of emotions they bring – after the heartbreaking loss of a pregnancy in August and three other failed IVF attempts last fall.
"Five's my lucky number," she adds, "so this is the time it's got to [work]."

Johnny Depp's Girlfriend Wouldn't Change a Thing About Him
Originally posted 02/10/2010 06:35AM
He's not PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive for nothing. From the long, stringy hair and goatee to the layers of offbeat accessories and everything in between, nobody can quite pull off a look like Johnny Depp – especially as far as his longtime girlfriend Vanessa Paradis is concerned.
"I love his style, yeah, yeah, yeah!" Paradis told PEOPLE Tuesday in New York at a Chanel dinner honoring her as the new face for Rouge Coco lipstick. "I love him, and I don't have to say I like this and I don't like that. When you love somebody, you take them as they are. I would not change him."
Besides Depp's eclectic style, the French singer and actress, 37, is attracted to all the qualities of her beau (since 1998). "I like him very much in all terms and every sense of the way," she said. "He makes me happy. We are many things – we are together and, in a way, one person."

Nicole Richie & Joel Madden Celebrate Opening of New Playground
Originally posted 02/09/2010 06:05PM
Nicole Richie and Joel Madden's daughter Harlow had to take her very first rain check on Tuesday in Los Angeles. With hail and rainstorms sweeping over the city, the 2-year-old couldn't play at the new playground her parents raised funds to build at downtown L.A.'s low income housing, Beyond Shelter.
"One raindrop, and she'd melt," joked her playful dad.
Despite the uncharacteristically bad weather, the opening was a meaningful accomplishment for Richie and Madden, who pledged to raise $35,000 to build the playground in September 2008 through the Richie-Madden Children's Foundation.
"When we first started coming here, there were no kids outside," says Richie. "To see the place come to life and have a place to come outside and be kids, and have their imaginations run wild, it's really awesome."

Movie Wife: Vince Vaughn to Make 'Wonderful Real Husband'
Originally posted 02/09/2010 06:00PM
She's already been married to Vince Vaughn – albeit in a movie – so Malin Akerman knows the actor made the right decision when he wed real estate agent Kyla Weber in real life.
"We're all in love with his wife," Vaughn's Couples Retreat costar tells PEOPLE. "She's an amazing person."
Akerman and the rest of the cast, which includes Jason Bateman, Kristen Bell, and Jon Favreau, bonded with Vaughn's future-bride while shooting the romantic comedy in Bora Bora, where many of the cast brought along their families and significant others to what Akerman described as a "big family event."

Naomi Judd Defends Taylor Swift
Originally posted 02/09/2010 04:25PM
Don't let Naomi Judd catch you saying anything bad about Taylor Swift. The veteran country singer has jumped to Swift's defense after she was heavily criticized for her performance at the Grammy Awards last month.
In a letter to the editor of The Tennessean, Judd, calls Swift a "dazzling performer" and lauds her for single-handedly introducing "country music to a much-welcomed younger demographic."
She attributes Swift's less-than-perfect Grammy duet with Stevie Nicks to having an off night. "Having sung many times at the Grammys, I can tell you that the stress and anxiety of performing in front of the world's top artists in every genre of music is tortuous for even the most seasoned singer," Judd writes.

Nancy Kerrigan's Father's Death to Be Treated as a Homicide
Originally posted 02/09/2010 01:45PM
An assault, compounded with an already-compromised medical condition, led to the death of Olympic skater Nancy Kerrigan's father, Daniel Kerrigan, according to the Middlesex, Mass., District Attorney – who also announced Tuesday that the death would be treated as a homicide.
The statement from the office of DA Gerry Leone said, in part: "The Medical Examiner determined that the cause of death was cardiac dysrhytmia following a physical altercation with neck compression causing injury to the neck in the form of a cartilage fracture to the larynx area, in a person with hypertensive and atherosclerotic cardiovascular heart disease."
It also stated: "The corresponding manner of death has been ruled a homicide."
Daniel Kerrigan, 70, was found unresponsive at his Stoneham, Mass., home on Sunday morning, Jan. 24. He was later pronounced dead at Winchester Hospital.
