The couple welcomed their daughter into the world this past Thursday, May 30th at a hospital in London. "I thought my body was going to change so quickly with pregnancy that I'd freak out. But it was really gradual. There's a reason women are pregnant for nine months; by the end, you're ready to have this baby." Jenna told Glamour Magazine in their May issue. Tatum and Dewan-Tatum met on the set of "Step Up" in 2006. After dating for three years, the couple tied the knot in July 2009 and announced that they were expecting a baby together last winter.

The film is about Mike (Channing Tatum) who is an entrepreneur. A man of many talents and loads of charm, he spends his days pursuing the American Dream from as many angles as he can handle: from roofing houses and detailing cars to designing furniture from his Tampa beach condo.But at night... he's just magic. The hot headliner in an all-male revue, Magic Mike has been rocking the stage at Club Xquisite for years with his original style and over-the-top dance moves. The more the ladies love him, the more they spend, and the happier that makes club owner Dallas (Matthew McConaughey). Seeing potential in a guy he calls the Kid (Alex Pettyfer), Mike takes the 19-year-old under his wing and schools him in the fine arts of dancing, partying, picking up women and making easy money. It's not long before the club's newest act has fans of his own, as the summer opens up to a world of fun, friendship and good times. Meanwhile, Mike meets the Kid's captivating sister, Brooke (Cody Horn). She's definitely someone he'd like to know a lot better, and it looks like he has a chance...until his lifestyle gets in the way. "Magic Mike" also stars Alex Pettyfer, Matthew McConaughey, Cody Horn, Olivia Munn, Matt Bomer, Riley Keough, Joe Manganiello, Kevin Nash, Adam Rodriguez and Gabriel Iglesias. The hunky actor has four films in production and 7 more in development! Jenna has stated that the two became friends first and then something blossomed.

Congrats to the happy couple! These two seemed to be so in love and happy, we're sure their daughter will be beautiful as ever!

Ok, well sort of, the actor received an honorary degree from Brown University over the weekend. The star did attend a graduation ceremony and was honored for his work as a director, producer, writer and actor. The Rhode Island Ivy League school awarded him a Doctor of Fine Arts degree. His longtime friend and Good Will Hunting partner received the 2013 Harvard Arts Medal last month. Damon attended the school from 1988-1992. The actor did not graduate. While at Harvard, Matt studied English. The actor took part in student theater appearing in plays such as Burn This in Winthrop House and A... My Name is Alice (in one of the three male roles usually performed by women). Damon dropped out of the university to pursue his acting career in Los Angeles because he expected Geronimo: An American Legend to become a big success. Damon has said "By the time I figured out I had made the wrong decision, it was too late. I was living out here with a bunch of actors, and we were all scrambling to make ends meet." Back to Affleck, The Academy Award-winning actor was among six artists, writers, scientists and educators selected to be given degrees. His film "Argo" won this year's Oscar for Best Picture. Others who received honorary doctorates were author and MIT Professor Junot Diaz, retired Stanford University bacteriologist Stanley Falkow, Tougaloo College President Beverly Wade Hogan, medical doctor and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation President Risa Lavizzo-Mourey and Miami Dade College President Eduardo Padron. Ben was born on August 15, 1972 in Berkeley, California, USA but raised in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. He started his career back in the 1981 in the film The Dark End of the Street. He then appeared, with Damon, in the 1992 film School Ties after appearing in smalls roles in tv series and tv movies. A year later he played the jerky high school bully O'Bannion in the cult hit Dazed and Confused. The actor appeared in several cult classics like Mall Rats and Chasing Amy before he and Damon catapulted their careers with the film they wrote and won Academy Awards for Good Will Hunting. Affleck won our hearts over in his portrayal of A.J. Frost in the film Armageddon. He went on to appear in Shakespeare in Love with then girlfriend Gwyneth Paltrow. His career just kept growing. He appeared in Forces of Nature with Sandra Bullock, he teamed up with pal Matt Damon again and director Kevin Smith (Chasing Amy) in the film Dogma. He starred in the films Boiler Room, Reindeer Games, and the Michael Bay hit Pearl Harbor. A few of his other memorable films are Changing Lanes, He's Just Not that Into You and The Town. Affleck's film Argo, in which he starred in and directed took home 3 Academy Awards this year including the top honor of Best Motion Picture of the Year. While the actor won the Golden Globe for Best Director-Motion Picture, everyone was surprised he was shunned by the Oscars not even getting a nomination. All in all, the actor has appeared in 56 projects, produced 14 titles, directed 6 and written 5 making him one of Hollywood's top actors. He has earned the name Dr. Affleck, don't you think?

The Oscar winning actress made the decision to undergo a double mastectomy upon learning she carried a gene that made it extremely likely she would develop breast cancer. She lost her mother to the disease back in 2007. In an exclusive interview with USA TODAY just hours after his fiancee went public, mega movie star Brad Pitt said he's "quite emotional about it, of course." He went on to say why her coming forward was important. "It doesn't have to be a scary thing. In fact, it can be an empowering thing, and something that makes you stronger and us stronger." Angie and her longtime partner Brad Pitt made the announcement in the form of an op-ed she authored for Tuesday's New York Times under the headline, "My Medical Choice." She writes that between early February and late April she completed three months of surgical procedures to remove both breasts. This is what the 37 year old had to say. "My mother fought cancer for almost a decade and died at 56," Jolie writes. "She held out long enough to meet the first of her grandchildren and to hold them in her arms. But my other children will never have the chance to know her and experience how loving and gracious she was." Striving to inspire women everywhere she continued "My own process began on Feb. 2 with a procedure known as a ‘nipple delay,'" she writes, "which rules out disease in the breast ducts behind the nipple and draws extra blood flow to the area." She goes on to describe the major surgery saying it felt "like a scene out of a science-fiction film," then writes that nine weeks later she had a third surgery to reconstruct the breasts and receive implants. "I do not feel any less of a woman," Jolie writes. "I feel empowered that I made a strong choice that in no way diminishes my femininity." She also wrote that Brad was at the Pink Lotus Breast Center in Southern California for "every minute of the surgeries." The actress is one of the biggest movie stars in the world, but at the end of the day, she is just human like everyone else. She and her partner Brad, have six children together. Three of whom they adopted, Maddox, Pax and Zahara and three of their own Shiloh and twins Vivienne and Knox. Angie has acted in 45 films, produced 3 films and has directed 2. She took home the Academy Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role in 2000 for her unbelievable portrayal of Lisa Rowe in the film Girl, Interrupted. She was nominated again in 2009 for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role for Changeling. The actress has been nominated for three Golden Globe Awards for the films The Tourist, Changeling and A Mighty Heart. She also took home 3 Golden Globes for Girl, Interrupted, Gia and George Wallace. It is no doubt she makes very strong film choices and coming from both a mother and father who are actors (her father is Jon Voight) it is not surprising how talented the actress is. We send our love and well wishes to Angie for her brave decision and commend her for going public inspiring women everywhere.

Last season of the X Factor was a thrilling one for us here at One Source Talent. If you didn't already know one of our talent Diamond White was a contestant on the show and made it to the Top 5! Diamond became a talent with us back in 2006. At just 8 years old, the soulful cutie came into our office shining like a star and totally blew us away when she belted out a song. We just knew she had something special and as it turns out a lot of other people agreed. We sent her information, headshot and a dvd of her singing to casting associates for the Broadway production of The Color Purple in New York City. Casting directors were impressed and asked Diamond and her mother to attend a casting in the city. She and her mom hopped in the car and headed out. While the casting team though she was amazing, they also thought she was a bit too young for the role, so they decided to send her to Chicago to audition for their production of the show. They jumped back in the car and headed straight to Chicago for another audition. Diamond blew the casting director away and she was offered a one year touring contract with the show. She renewed again for a second tour. When she was finished, she headed to Las Vegas and appeared in the show The Lion King. Once she was finished, her mom wanted to move to Los Angeles so Diamond could pursue other opportunities. Diamond was auditioning but wasn't getting a whole lot of work. She had done several voice over jobs including voice work for the tv shows Phineas and Ferb, Transformers: Rescue Bots and most recently Sofia the First. Diamond's mom decided to take her to an open call for Fox's the X-Factor. Who would have known what was to come!? Diamond made all of the cuts. She was chosen to be a part of team Britney (mentor Britney Spears). She was cut shortly after making it to the top 10. That didn't mark the end of her time on the show however as the judges saved her and brought her back! Diamond held on and made it to the Top 5. We don't know if Diamond will make any special appearances on this year's show, but we what do know is host Khloe Kardashian will not. Fox announced on Monday that Season 2 co-host Mario Lopez will return for Season 3 of "The X Factor" while E!'s "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star Khloe Kardashian won't be back. "I'm looking forward to returning to 'The X Factor' team," said Lopez. "We're coming back stronger and better than ever and I'm excited to check out all the new talent." "I'm thrilled Mario is back for Season Three of 'The X Factor,'" said executive producer and judge Simon Cowell. "Hosting a live show and keeping the judges - especially Demi - in line, is not an easy job, but Mario is a pro and we are glad he's coming back." Regarding the Keeping Up with the Kardashian's star Fox released this statement "Khloe Kardashian will not be returning to co-host 'The X Factor.' We really enjoyed working with her and wish her all the best in her future endeavors."

 We have lost long time film critic Roger Ebert. Ebert had been a film critic for the Chicago Sun-Times since 1967. He had announced on his blog Wednesday that he was undergoing radiation treatment after a recurrence of cancer. What is most notable about other than he and Gene Siskel being the most well known film critics was their Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down film rating system. Ebert has many accomplishments. His 1975 Pulitzer for distinguished criticism was the first, and one of only three, given to a film reviewer since the category was created in 1970. In 2005, he received another honor when he became the first critic to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He soon began doing interviews and profiles of notable actors and directors in addition to his film reviews - celebrating such legends as Alfred Hitchcock, John Wayne and Robert Mitchum and offering words of encouragement for then-newcomer Martin Scorsese. Ebert's television career began the year he won the Pulitzer, first on WTTW-TV, the Chicago PBS station, then nationwide on PBS and later on several commercial syndication services. Ebert and Siskel even trademarked the "two thumbs up" phrase. Ebert was also an author, writing more than 20 books, including two volumes of essays on classic movies and the popular "I Hated, Hated, Hated This Movie," a collection of some of his most scathing reviews. He attended the university and was editor of the student newspaper. After his graduation in 1964, he spent a year on scholarship at the University of Cape Town in South Africa and then began work toward a doctorate in English at the University of Chicago. Back in 2006 he underwent surgery which removed part of his jaw. The critic lost his speaking voice along with the ability to eat and drink. He did come back and continue writing reviews and commentary. Roger Ebert was just 70 years old. He will be missed in the entertainment community but he will always be remembered, his legacy will live on forever. Roger, we give you a Thumbs Up.
