Hollywood couple Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are expecting their second child, confirms actor Victor Garber.

Earlier this month, reports surfaced the actress was pregnant - but Affleck's spokesperson refused to confirm or deny the reports.

But now Garner's former Alias co-star Garber - who officiated the couple's 2005 wedding - has confirmed the news, insisting, "Yes, she is".

And a source tells Usmagazine.com that Garner is already five months into her pregnancy.

The insider adds, "She and Ben are still deciding whether they'll ask the sex of the child."

The pair welcomed daughter Violet in December 2005.

Kevin Kline was horrified to hear his death speech in a performance of Cyrano De Bergerac last year was ruined by an audience member on the phone.

The thespian was so into the scene he blocked out the chatter in the third row as one thoughtless theatregoer talked to a pal about dining out after the production.

But, when he came offstage, co-star Jennifer Garner told him what was going on as he was `dying' onstage.

He says, "Apparently this lady's cellphone rang just as I was doing my last speech about my life being meaningful because of panache, and what have you.

"As I'm going on, she hears the phone ring; she picks it up and she says, `Yeah, no, I'm still here... He's lying down. It's going to be over soon. Yeah, it's Jennifer. Yeah, Kevin Kline and Jennifer Garner. Yeah, no, he's dying. I'll be a couple more minutes. I'll be there. I'll be there. Just wait. You can order for me. Yeah. Okay. He's dead. He's dead. Oh, the curtain came down. Okay. I'll be right there.'

"If I had heard that, I would have sped up the whole death thing. It's annoying as all hell."

Hollywood couple Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are expecting their second child, according to new reports.

The pair welcomed their two-year-old daughter Violet in December 2005, and are expecting a second addition to their brood with Garner set to give birth next year, reports the National Enquirer.

A source tells the tabloid, "A few days before the Fourth of July, Jen began calling close pals with the news that she was pregnant again. Jen said she's three months along - and she and Ben are 'ecstatic'."

The source adds, "She and Ben are still deciding whether they'll ask the sex of the child."

Affleck and Garner wed in June 2005 after meeting on the set of 2003 film Daredevil.

Affleck's spokesperson, Ken Sunshine, is refusing to confirm or deny the reports, telling WENN: "We don't comment on the personal lives of our clients."

All the star power in the world couldn't keep the Lakers from blowing a 24-point lead in their devastating loss to the Boston Celtics Thursday night at L.A.'s Staples Center. "Good for Boston," Will Smith graciously conceded to People after the Celtics' 97-91 win. He was followed to the exits by a grim-faced Jack Nicholson, a dejected Penny Marshall and disconsolate Justin Timberlake. But the crowd – which included L.A. supporters Denzel Washington, Tobey McGuire, David Beckham, Nicky Hilton, Ryan Seacrest, Randy Jackson, Dustin Hoffman and Fergie – did contain a few Boston fans.Boston boy Ben Affleck was

Jennifer Garner was almost sent into a panic during a shopping trip on Thursday, when she accidentally locked her two-year-old daughter in the car with her keys.

The Elektra star had just arrived at the Brentwood Country Mart in California when she climbed out of her Lexus without her car keys and closed the door behind her - forgetting the car doors had been set to auto-lock, according to celebrity blogger PerezHilton.com.

But Garner was able to breathe a sigh of relief when she was able to instruct clever Violet - her daughter with husband Ben Affleck - how to open the doors, freeing herself from the vehicle within minutes.

The tot emerged triumphant, clutching the car keys as she smiled at a delighted Garner, before mother and daughter continued with their girls' day out.

Propects for Emmy acting awards

From drama, comedy and miniseries, these actors are up for the part.

By Tom O'Neil, The Envelope

June 4, 2008

Emmy's winners for acting are chosen in a three-tier system by actors who belong to the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. During the first two weeks of June, they participate in a popular vote that determines a Top 10 runoff in each race. Finalists submit a sample episode of their best work to judges, whose scores are combined by accountants in a 50-50 mix with results of the original popular vote. The five nominees in each category are then announced July 17. Winners are decided based on judges' scores of the sample episodes and are revealed at the awards ceremony to

Jennifer Garner appreciates her fans – even when they ask the tough questions. Asked, "When are you going to have another [child]?" during a break in filming This Side of Truth last Friday, the 36-year-old actress laughed off the unexpected query. "Sometime," she replied. "I don't know. I have to think about that one."Garner – who was in Lowell, Mass., shooting the flick (costarring Tina Fey and Ricky Gervais) – made sure to spend quality time with fans of all ages. But she paid special attention to her youngest admirers. "I have to say hi to the girls," she said, heading over to sign autographs for a crowd.

It was tough to tell who needed more security at Saturday night's annual White House Correspondents' Association Dinner in Washington, D.C. – the President or the Jonas brothers. "It's crazy," Nick Jonas said of the Beatles-like frenzy that erupted when the pop trio – also made up of Jonases Joe and Kevin – arrived. "We never expected this." The evening's emcee, Late, Late Show star (and, as of January, a newly minted American citizen) Craig Ferguson, told People he was "thrilled but shocked" to receive the invitation to host because he "assumed his first invitation as a citizen would be to Jury Duty.

Latest: Actor Gary Busey has gone public with his less than healthy home life as the owners of his Malibu, California pad attempt to evict him for not paying his rent.

The Point Break star allegedly owes $50,000 (GBP25,000) in back rent but he's refusing to pay up because he claims "unclean air conditioning vents" were posing a health risk to him.

And that's not all - in an exclusive interview with U.S. news show Access Hollywood, the actor rages, "I'm living in a house that's had mold in the air and asbestos in the air, and the lights don't work and the fixtures are falling out of the wall.

"The patio wood is crumbling so people could trip and fall."

Busey insists his landlord didn't need to officially evict him - because he had already moved out of the home, accusing the managers of neglecting crucial repairs.

He adds, "They didn't care about that house or the tenant... I said, 'Woah, I'm outta here!"

Busey insists he's in a much better place now and even told the news show he blames his life in former home for his odd behaviour at the Oscars in February - where he terrified Jennifer Garner by pouncing on her and kissing her while she was in the middle of a live TV interview.

The actor has since apologised for his actions.

He says, "That was simply the excitement of being out of the house I was in."

One of 2007's breakout indie hits, "Lars and the Real Girl" was just high-profile enough, profitable enough, acted-by-Ryan-Gosling- within-an-inch-of-its-life enough and conspicuously life-affirming enough to, in the end, warrant a substantial backlash. But a backlash descends every year on overpumped movies as naturally as autumn comes to summer, inevitably, and we need to keep in mind that backlash is as irrelevant to the movie in question as is the hype and popularity that spawned it. In an ideal world, we'd see movies in a vacuum unpoisoned by publicity plague dogs and self-aggrandizing bloggers and clueless critics. Instead, we're inundated with cant that is predominantly interested in itself and its opponents, not in the movie as it would be seen, by itself, a year or ten down the road. We need to remember, for instance, that while "Juno" didn't deserve any sort of Oscar, and was

The movie, which will be the comedian's feature directorial debut, sets up a world where the human race can only tell the truth. A writer (Gervais) patents the first lie and uses it to become a star.

Matthew McConaughey took to his MySpace Celebrity blog Wednesday to vent about the "ghosts of girlfriends past." But don't worry, Penélope Cruz and Ashley Judd – these exes were all strictly fictional. The 38-year-old actor – who's expecting his first child with girlfriend Camila Alves – said he's also tackling the issues of "love, women and family" for his new role in the adult comedy Ghosts of Girlfriends Past. "It's cool being in a very edgy comedy where the dialogue and situations skirt that R-rated innuendo," he wrote. "My character ... is cynical about the promises of [marriage] ...

During the star-studded event in Boston, Massachusetts, Affleck heaped praise on Obama before making a joke about his raunchy music video, which chat show host Jimmy Kimmel called I'm F**king Ben Affleck.

He joked, "I think I'm just grateful he didn't ask me to do a sexy YouTube video with him."

Gary Busey has publicly apologised for his bizarre behaviour on the red carpet at the Oscars last month when he lunged at a terrified Jennifer Garner and planted an unwanted kiss on her neck.

The actress and pal Laura Linney were in the middle of a live interview when Busey approached the pair and embraced and kissed them.

Nervous Garner had to struggle to maintain her composure as Busey then stood right next to her for the remainder of the televised interview with U.S. TV and radio personality Ryan Seacrest, before Linney dragged her away to safety.

Busey has since revealed he had no idea the ladies were being interviewed live, and now he's making a public apology on TV.

Speaking on U.S. TV show Extra, he says, "I got very excited and I did not know Ryan Seacrest was doing an interview. I apologised to Jennifer, I apologised to (husband) Ben (Affleck), I apologised to Ryan."

Hollywood star Tom Cruise's marriage to Katie Holmes was set up by the Church of Scientology after a series of fake casting calls for actresses including Jennifer Garner and Jessica Alba failed to deliver a suitable wife, according to sensational new claims by a former Scientologist.

Cruise and Holmes wed in a fairytale ceremony in Italy in 2006 after a whirlwind 20-month romance and have one-year-old daughter Suri together.

But ex-Scientologist Marc Headley - who used to produce promotional films for the controversial religion - claims Holmes was set up with the Mission: Impossible star after he split from Penelope Cruz in 2004 after three years together.

Headley alleges Scientology leader David Miscavige organised an audition process for potential wives disguised as a casting call for a new movie in which Cruise was the leading man.

He tells British tabloid News of the World, "After that (splitting from Cruz), he started complaining to his best buddy David about his luck with girls. So Miscavige assigned a high-ranking official with the order: 'Find a wife for Tom Cruise.'

"The official put out a casting call to female actresses, including Scientologists, saying, 'There's an upcoming Tom Cruise movie you might get a part in. Come for an audition.' But in the end no movie was made. They had to be single, they had to be pretty and in their 20s.

"First they rounded up Scientologist actresses like Erica Christensen, Erica Howard and Sofia Milos. But they were all rejected."

The unnamed official then tried to lure Electra star Garner - who had just started dating Ben Affleck at the time - with the beauty ranked top of the priority list, before Holmes was spotted gushing about Cruise and called to Los Angeles to meet the actor.

Headley adds, "Then... they went for Jennifer Garner, Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Alba, in that order. They came up with the same plan. Jennifer and Jessica didn't bite but Scarlett took the bait and came in for an audition. When she arrived at the audition address and found out it was the Scientology Center in Hollywood she freaked out and didn't do a tape...

"So they worked the audition tape on Katie, got her to L.A. and introduced her to Tom. The moment he meets her, he's enthralled with her and he told Miscavige later, 'I knew immediately she was the one.'"
