    Kim Kardashian wants four children.

    The reality TV star - who is in a relationship with NFL star Miles Austin - admits she has always wanted a large family, but has lowered her expectation as she has got older.

    She said: "I do want kids. I want four. I started at six a few years ago."

    However Kim is not planning to rush into motherhood after seeing how difficult it has been for her sister Kourtney Kardashian to raise her eight-month-old son Mason.

    Referring to Mason, Kim explained: "It kind of shows me what hard work it is and it kind of makes me want to step back a little bit and not have a baby right away."

    Kim is not the only member of the Kardashian family to be contemplating motherhood.

    Her sister Kourtney has also admitted she and boyfriend Scott Disick would welcome becoming parents for the second time, though they are not deliberately trying to conceive.

    She said: "I'm not trying but I'm not not trying. Me and Khloe are on the same plan. It's a race".

    Earlier this year, Khloe Kardashian admitted she and husband Lamar Odom had stopped using contraception in preparation to have a family.

    She said: "I'm not rushing it, but I'm also not doing anything to prevent it. We both want to have children together and I think we're in an ideal situation. We're just happy together."

    Paris Hilton wants to be a school teacher.

    The 29-year-old socialite - who has starred in her own reality TV series, created several fragrances, designed purses, jewellery and clothing, as well as launching a music career - admits she has some more down-to-earth ambitions she would like to pursue out of the spotlight.

    She is quoted by gossip website Absolute Now as saying: "I have basically done everything but if I wasn't in the position I am in now I would love to be a nursery school teacher because I love kids."

    The blonde heiress - who recently adopted a pet dog named Mugsy from a pug rescue centre - would also be interested in a career in animal care.

    She added: "Or I would love to be a veterinarian because I love animals. That would be a dream for me."

    However, before she can pursue her new career paths, Paris continues to be busy with her fashion and beauty endeavours.

    She tweeted: "Just had a great meeting for the designs of my new nail and eye lash line. They look fabulous! Loves it!

    "Had a nice dinner at my parents house with my family tonight. It was lovely. Now in bed scrap booking with my creativity line. Loves it! (sic)"

     

  • Wesley Snipes

    Wesley Snipes is calling for a mistrial in his tax evasion investigation.

    The 'Demolition Man' star - who was handed a three-year sentence by US courts in April 2008 after he was found to have "willfully neglected" to file his income tax return - insists his trial wasn't fair because some jurors were prejudiced against him.

    He has already been granted numerous postponements in starting his sentence, which was most recently due to begin on September 2.

    In documents filed to a Florida court on Monday (23.08.10), Wesley claims his defense team received emails after the trial from two jurors who claimed three others "told us Snipes was guilty before they even heard the first piece of evidence."

    The 48-year-old actor believes this evidence should be enough to have a mistrial declared, but also further claims the US government didn't disclose charges brought before his former accountant and a key witness against him, Kenneth Starr.

    Kenneth was already under investigation for engaging in "criminal activities of conspiring to evade income taxes" with another client at the time of the actor's trial.

    A new date for Snipes' incarceration will only be set after several pending motions in the case have been ruled on.

    Mariah Carey is four months pregnant, it has been claimed.

    The 'Hero' hitmaker - who was pictured on stage in Brazil earlier this week with an apparent baby bump - and husband Nick Cannon have allegedly told friends how "overjoyed" they are to be expecting their first child together, despite refusing to publicly confirm the happy news.

    A source told RadarOnline.com: "Nick has been telling friends how excited he is to be a dad.

    "Mariah has tried so hard to get pregnant. She's very excited. She wants to wait as close to full term as possible before going public with the news to her fans."

    Following her show in Brazil, Mariah - who recently dropped out of her next movie, 'For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf', citing medical reasons - tweeted she had found the performance tough for "personal reasons".

    She posted: "Seriously, I really do love it here, beautiful people inside and out! Tonite was tuff 4 me 4 personal reasons, but U got me thru! L4L. (sic)"

    Nick has refused to be drawn on the pregnancy speculation this week, insisting it is a matter for his wife to tell her fans.

    He said on his radio show: "I've said it before and I'll say it time and time again - when my wife feels like talking about whatever she wants to talk about, you will hear it directly from her."

     

  • Kim Kardashian would definitely date Justin Bieber "if he was of legal age."

    The 29-year-old reality TV star - who recently took part in a magazine photoshoot with the 16-year-old pop sensation - insists she has no romantic involvement with the 'Baby' hitmaker because he is too young.

    She told US TV talk show host George Lopez: "Would I date him? If he was of legal age. He definitely has this swag to him."

    The brunette beauty - who is dating NFL player Miles Austin - recently admitted she "feels old enough to be Justin's mum" but has retained a close friendship with the star, after they first met at this year's White House Correspondents' Dinner.

    Justin recently revealed he talks to his pal regularly.

    He said: "I have her on Blackberry Messenger and we, like, talk all the time."

    Speaking about their recent photoshoot - which was styled around the movie 'The Graduate', which follows an older woman and her young lover - the singer admitted anyone his age would have jumped at the chance to work with Kim.

    He said: "It was cool. It was really cool. She's really beautiful so that was. I mean, any 16 year old would want to do a photoshoot with her.

    "Beyond just being, like, extremely hot, she's actually, you know, a really nice person."

     

  • Paris Hilton woke to find a knife-wielding intruder trying to break into her home.

    The hotel heiress called police after making the terrifying discovery in the early hours of this morning (08.24.10).

    She tweeted: "So Scary, just got woken up to a guy trying to break into my house holding 2 big knifes. Cops are here arresting him. (sic)"

    The 29-year-old star then posted a picture of police outside her house in Los Angeles, California.

    This is not the first time an intruder has tried to get into Paris' home.

    In December 2008, burglars stole an estimated $2 million worth of jewelery and other belongings from her property, though she wasn't home at the time.

    Last year, Paris took to twitter to reveal someone had tried to break into her sister Nicky's house in Beverly Hills.

    She seethed at the time: "It's unbelievable how my sister called the cops over an hour ago and they still haven't shown up. Her house just got robbed, so messed up.

    "I HATE people who steal! It's so wrong! I hope they catch whoever did this! There has been so many robberies lately. So scary! (sic)"

    Lady Gaga has become the "queen of twitter" - with more followers than anyone else.

    The 'Alejandro' singer has overtaken Britney Spears by 34,000 followers after attracting a staggering 5,735,554 people to her page compared to 5,701,236.

    Gaga has now posted a video link on her twitter account thanking fans for making her the most popular person on the micro-blogging site.

    Addressing her fans as her "little monsters", the pop star - who appears in a makeshift crown with a twitter logo on it and waves a magic wand in the video - says: "Hello world, this is Lady Gaga, queen of twitter. I wanted to thank all my beautiful little monsters for following me. Thank you for beginning my reign as twitter queen. I vow to always tweet and tweet again."

    The piece was shot backstage at a concert in Tacoma, Washington. The 24-year-old singer is currently on the North American leg of her 'Monster Ball Tour'.

    Gaga currently picks up new followers on twitter at an average of around 171,000 a week, according to website famecount.com which analyzed the data.

    Although she is the most followed star on twitter, she is not the fastest growing; that title goes to teen pop sensation Justin Bieber, who is amassing an average 800,000 new followers each month.

    Other popular tweeters include actor Ashton Kutcher and musician Taylor Swift, who both have over 3 million followers each.
