The superstar's confession, Amanda Peet's insult to parents who don't vaccinate, and Eva Longoria's bump.
Will and Jada Smith's open marriage: The blockbusting superstar told Britain's Now that he and his wife of of 11 years, Jada Pinkett Smith, talk about their attractions to other people. He says, "Our perspective is, you don't avoid what's natural, and you're going to be attracted to people...So sometimes we have the discussion: 'Wow, this or that girl is freaking gorgeous.' I'm not going to say anything to my buddies that's any different than what I say to my wife." Although he doesn't admit they've actually done this, he goes on to say that they would be honest about their intentions to stray and wouldn't do it if the other didn't approve.
Amanda Peete's shocking vaccine statement: The actress and mother of 18-month-old daughter, Frances, told Cookie magazine, "Frankly, I feel that parents who don't vaccinate their children are parasites." We smell future feuds with Charlie Sheen and Jenny McCarthy!
Eva Longoria's baby bump?: The actress was recently spotted yachting in Italy wearing a skimpy orange bikini that revealed a small belly bump. Rumors are flying Eva is pregnant, but sources close to the star say "no." Check out the picture in People, and decide for yourself.

Well my respect for Will Smith, and his wife, just plummeted! Maybe they could live their lives that way if they didn’t have kids but they’re supposed to be teaching their cildren how to develop and sustain adult relationships - that’s what responsible parents do. What the hell are they thinking??? And how in the world will they explain this to their children? And what if another child is “accidentally” brought into the world because of some straying activity. Didn’t they take vows when they got married?????
- Huh
Are you Christian? I’m guessing that’s why this bothers you. I don’t know a single non-Christian/non-religious person who is offended by two married people being completely okay with something like that as long as they’re open and honest with each other. Although I’m sure that’s because we’re thought of as nothing but horrible, sinful heathens, of course. (We’re not, by the way.) You know why? Humans are not naturally monogamous. Cheating happens for this reason. We, like all animals, are designed to reproduce. Spread our genes. But then because of some cultural ritual, we strap ourselves into a completely monogamous relationship. It’s just asking for trouble! Not to mention, we’re living longer, and therefore in monogamous relationships for longer than people 50, 60, 70 years ago were. If two people in a relationship are completely consenting about “straying” and participating in SAFE SEX with other consenting adults, who are you to say that’s wrong? Oh, right, you aren’t. And they’re not teaching their kids to go and screw whoever they want, regardless of whether they’re in a relationship or not. That is so not the case AT ALL here. You’re also assuming they’ll be obvious about it to their children, or tell their kids about it when it happens before they’re too young to even understand it. Don’t be so judgmental about something you don’t even know! Most people only disapprove because it’s outside of the norm and is taboo. If both of them are completely honest about it (if for some stupid reason one of them is lying to the other about it, then of course it’ll cause problems, mainly jealousy), don’t do it without the others’ approval (as they said), then it can be perfectly healthy. They’re still committed to each other. And I highly doubt they’re going to have unsafe sex with anyone. Good grief! They’re not idiots. I don’t think it’s ever something I would do, but that doesn’t mean other people shouldn’t. Your post radiates ignorance on the subject. So please, read up on it before so completely and blindly judging people on something you know NOTHING about! Keep in mind most of the world doesn’t agree with your religion, either. Speaking of which, doesn’t your bible say something about not judging people? Oi.

I read in some magazine YEARS and years ago this story about Will and Jada. I thought it was common knowledge when it suddenly came out again. Oh well for them. I don’t understand why people would get worked up about it. Does it affect your marriage what other people do in their marriage?
- Amber
Talk about judging - wow! Did that poster say anything about religion? Newsflash - monogamy isn’t just a Christian concept. I know plenty of people who practice other religions, as well as those who practice none, who are monogamous. Of course I also know two couples whose marriages failed as a direct result of the open marriage concept blowing up in their face. Why bother getting married at all?

I don’t think that they meant that they are having an open relationship. I think that what he was saying was that they were attracted to other people but wouldn’t act on these feelings…they were just putting it out there. I know that in most relationships there are attractions to the opposite sex, like common people who are attracted to famous people but don’t act on those impulses.
- CGH
I agree with CGH. They weren’t saying the sleep with other people. They were just saying that other people are attractive. Completely different. They’re not dead…just married.
- Hollie
Neither Will nor Jada said anything about actually acting on their attractions. What they said is they actually openly discuss and admit to one another when they do find someone attractive which is healthy because they follow up by saying if they decided that they actually wanted to do more about it than talk that they would inform one another first. Now that is open, honest, loving, mature, and responsible.
- Donna
I don’t believe this crap because it was rumoured before and jada said it wasn’t true
- Linda
so now you have to be a christian to advocate a monogamous marriage?! you are the one who is ignorant! and your post so proves it! i am a christian by the way and the bible does say judge not but it doesn’t say ignore what God has already said- pointing out the truth -and what God has already said- isn’t judging- it’s reminding! i thought the comments were supposed to be about the celebrities, not christian bashing. what’s your chip on the shoulder?

I know a married, protestant couple who have been in an open marriage for several years - they’re friends of my parents. They took a long time to decide this, and obviously had a few jealousy problems at first, because they didn’t set out ground rules properly. They went to have marriage counselling, and now they’re doing fine. They’re very discreet about it. They have two kids; the eldest is fifteen and realized what was going on a year ago, but because she hadn’t been brought up to think it was bad, she didn’t think much of it. Her brother is seven and, like most seven-yr-olds, knows very little about the sex-life of his parents. I’ve also met two couples for whom open relationships haven’t worked - one split up and the other just went back to monogamy. So open relationships don’t work for everyone, and I’m pretty sure religion has nothing to do with it. If you want to know more, try looking it up in Wikipedia and click on the reference articles at the bottom of the page. Very informative.
