Sharon Stone Loses Physical Custody of Her Son

Sharon StoneSharon Stone has lost physical custody of her 8-year-old son, Roan, to her ex-husband, Phil Bronstein, despite her court pleas to change the arrangement.

According to minutes from a September 12, 2008 custody hearing, a Superior Court judge ruled that Stone's ex-husband Phil Bronstein "shall have permanent sole physical custody" of the child because the former newspaper editor was found able to "provide a more structured continuity, stable, secure and consistent home that...Roan needs." and "The court does not find that (a) move away is in child's best interest," say the minutes.

The order has been made permanent, unless Stone relocates to San Francisco, where Bronstein and now Roan reside, or if Bronstein moves away from the Bay Area.

On February 14, 1998, Stone married Phil Bronstein, executive editor of the San Francisco Examiner and later San Francisco Chronicle. Stone and Bronstein were divorced in January 2004, after he had suffered a severe heart attack. The couple adopted Roan in 2004. Stone has two other adopted boys, Laird and Quinn.

Jessica Simpson"I don't know what your perception is of Jessica Simpson or what tabloid you buy, but I just want you to know that I'm just a girl from Texas," Simpson told the crowd. "I'm just like you. I'm doing what I love and dating a boy."

Jessica dedicated the tune "You're My Sunday" to Tony Romo who Jessica Simpson is dating - Tony Romo is Wisconsin native - he was in the audience, Simpson performed country covers including Willie Nelson's On the Road Again and Shania Twain's Who's Bed Have Your Boots Been Under? as well as songs from her new album "Do You Know."

Jessica SimpsonJessica Simpson's first country concert was met with mixed reactions, the crowd welcomed Simpson with a mixture of boos and cheers Saturday night. "Just because she's dating Tony Romo it doesn't make her country," one of the audience said to the local paper "She doesn't fit in with country, and I'll have to drink a lot of beer to sit through her concert." Added another "She's an embarrassment to country music," But there were a few supporters in the crowd "I actually like her country songs better. She has a great voice, plus, she's adorable," said another one.

Simpson announced earlier this year 2008 her plans to release a country album despite making a name for herself as a pop star. But the singer failed to impress the crowds when she debuted her new material.

Simpson's first country album, Do You Know? is not due until Sept. 9; however, her country single "Come On Over." was released this summer.

Jessica SimpsonEarlier the Nashville Star judge offered an advice to Simpson, in PEOPLE magazine “I really like Jessica.

Be true to who you are.” If she does that, Jewel said, country fans will continue to embrace her.

Angelina Jolie Gives Birth to Twins

Angelina JolieAngelina Jolie has given birth to a girl and a boy Saturday at the Fondation Lenval hospital in Nice, France.

"are doing marvelously well." Dr. Michel Sussmann, told The Associated Press about the actress, the babies and Brad Pitt. Sussmann told PEOPLE magazine "The babies are doing well. The operation went just perfectly," Sussmann also added "Angelina is in very good spirits. Brad Pitt was at her side. He was there and all was well."

The doctor said Jolie gave birth to a boy, Knox Leon, and a girl, Vivienne Marcheline, by Caesarean section at around 8 p.m. on Saturday night. the boy weighed just over 5 pounds and the girl 5 pounds.

He said the Caesarean was moved forward from its originally planned date "for medical reasons" so that the babies could be born "in the best conditions." Sussman also said Jolie is expected to stay in the hospital for a few more days.

The first photos of the new twins are expected to fetch millions of dollars, so the hospital said it had coated the windows of Jolie's room with a special material to prevent paparazzi from taking unauthorized pictures of the star couple.

The new twins make the number of children in the Jolie-Pitt clan half a dozen. Jolie, 33, and partner Brad Pitt, 44, are already parents to Maddox, 6; Pax, 4; Zahara, 3; and Shiloh, 2. Jolie recently told Entertainment Weekly that she was surprised when she knew she was having twins. "It did shock us, and we jumped to six children quickly,".
