Talk about teamwork. In the weeks surrounding Angelina Jolie's preventive double mastectomy and subsequent reconstructive surgery, her fiancé, Brad Pitt, served as her No. 1 support. At the bustling home they share with their six kids in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles, "Brad did everything he could to keep things secret and protect Angie," a family insider tells People in this week's cover story. Using early morning appointments and rental cars to avoid discovery, "They really wanted Angie to be able to recover and rest before they shared the story," says the insider. The actress's medical ordeal only deepened the bond between Jolie, »

Angelina Jolie to Play Mother Marcheline Bertrand in New Movie?

21 May 2013 8:57 AM, PDT | National Ledger | See recent National Ledger news »

Will Angelina Jolie play her late mother Marcheline Bertrand in a new movie? The Oscar-winning actress - who revealed last week she had undergone a double mastectomy after discovering she carried the BRCA1 gene, which meant she had an 87 percent chance of contracting breast cancer and a 50 per cent chance of suffering from ovarian cancer - will portray Marcheline Bertrand, who died of cancer in 2007 aged 56, in the movie, which will be made by her partner Brad Pitt's Plan B production company. According to reports, the biopic will go into production in 2014, but does not yet have a release date. Like Angelina, 37, Marcheline was known for her humanitarian work and helped female Afghan refugees and also launched the Give Love Give Life organsation in an effort to help fight gynecological cancers.

Hillsborough: How They Buried the Truth; The Somme: Secret Tunnel Wars – TV review

20 May 2013 11:00 PM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »

Panorama offered few new Hillsborough revelations, but there were nuggets of gold in the interviews with people who were involved at the time

It took the best part of 25 years for campaigners to get the police and the government to admit the truth about the Hillsborough stadium disaster in which 96 Liverpool football fans died, so you can understand the desire to have every last wrong righted, but it does now feel as if the cover-up has been well and truly exposed. The damned have been damned. Hillsborough: How They Buried the Truth (BBC1) was a Panorama investigation that promised previously unseen television footage, but told me very little about the disaster that I hadn't already seen in several other television documentaries over the last few years.

There's nothing wrong in reminding people about the lengths the police and legal system went to in order to shift the blame from themselves »

If reports are to be believed, the biopic will go into production in 2014. But a release date is yet to be locked for it.

Jolie is much like her mother when it comes to humanitarian work. Bertrand helped female Afghan refugees and also launched the Give Love Give Life organsation in an. »

'All-Star Celebrity Apprentice' winner: Trace Adkins or Penn Jillette, who took home the prize?

19 May 2013 9:08 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

Donald Trump launched his 13th season of "The Apprentice" on NBC in 2013 with another celebrity version -- but this one was an all-star season. Which former contestant came out on top this time around?

It was Trace Adkins, who previously finished as runner-up to Piers Morgan on the original season of "Celebrity Apprentice." He ended up raising over $1.3 million for the American Red Cross.

Penn Jillette came in second, after previously finishing seventh during the fifth season of the show. He ended up raising over $700,000 for Opportunity Village, a charity that serves people in southern Nevada who have developmental disabilities.

The final task, the first part of which aired a week ago, was to create a new flavor of ice cream for Walgreens, along with making a promotional video and raising money for a launch event. In the end, Jillette said he was no match for Adkins' super-human fundraising abilities. »

‘Vampire Diaries’ Season 4: Death, Sex & More — 10 Most Shocking Moments

18 May 2013 12:07 AM, PDT | HollywoodLife | See recent HollywoodLife news »

Vote for the biggest surprise from the past season, while getting scoop on what’s to come in season five.

From the moment Elena (Nina Dobrev) first bore her fangs, we knew The Vampire Diaries‘ fourth season was going to be something special. Relive the 10 biggest shockers of season four, and get the latest season five spoilers. Just think: There’s more of this madness to come!

1. Elena & Stefan Break Up

We’ve seen this play out before, but that was all a show for Katherine. This time, it was really for real — and it resulted in a super-weepy, unappealing Stefan (Paul Wesley) for most of the remaining season.

2. Elena & Damon Have Sex

Before the experience was ruined by news of the alleged sire bond, this was the show’s hottest hookup ever. Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Elena made that entire mansion their bitch, and an endless number of gifs were born. »

50 Cent Explains Why He Raps About Drugs

16 May 2013 6:58 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

As he adds more business ventures and philanthropic efforts to his resume, 50 Cent has found himself in a curious spot. Battling not only album delays but also a rapidly shifting hip-hop landscape, the man who exploded onto the scene with the inescapable night-out anthem "In Da Club" is once again hungry, and acutely aware that living legend-status doesn't necessarily come with influence or relevance.

Consider this: When 50 Cent dropped "Get Rich or Die Tryin,'" it was still vaguely acceptable for his mentor Eminem to refer to homosexuals using gay slurs, rap was becoming the dominant music of American party and radio culture and Snoop Lion was still a Dogg.

So, yes, time files. In an interview about his upcoming performance at the X Games, I asked 50 to lay aside all album delays, business stresses and take a look at his own legacy. If he never released another song, would »
