Nick Lachey: Our Wedding Countdown Has Begun

While Nick Lachey is playing coy about his and Vanessa Minnillo's upcoming wedding – including the when, where and how it will take place – one thing he will share: It's not very far off.

"The countdown's begun," Lachey, 37, told PEOPLE Saturday at a Hollywood event for The Matt Leinart Foundation. "You know, the clock is ticking, so we're getting dangerously close. That's all I can say."

His bride-to-be said recently she likes the idea of a winter-themed wedding, but Lachey won't succumb to pressure on revealing further details.

Still, the groom does admit to a little (understandable) vanity about the big day.

Halle Berry: Gabriel and I Love Our Daughter 'More Than Life'

It appears the worst might be over for Oscar-winner Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry, who have recently been engaged in a custody battle over their daughter Nahla, 3.

"When there's a child involved, it's a relief when you can resolve things in a good way," the actress, who revealed that court proceedings have gone well without detailing the exact agreement, tells Extra.

"Our issues were never about fighting for her," Berry says of Nahla. "We both know a child needs both her parents. But what I want to say about it is sometimes, as a couple, you reach an impasse. We needed a court and a judge to help us work out some of the delicate issues, and I'm so happy we've arrived at that place – because for her sake, this is the best way. We both love her more than life."


Kate Hudson Thinks She's Having a Girl

If Kate Hudson's family are indeed secretly hoping she has a girl, they may get their wish.

"I'm just starting to pop," the actress, 31, who is pregnant with boyfriend Matthew Bellamy's child, says in an interview airing Friday on Britain's The Graham Norton Show.

"It feels like a girl, but I don't know. Ryder thinks it's a girl," she adds, referring to her 7-year-old son with ex-husband Chris Robinson.
Hudson and Bellamy, the frontman for the rock band Muse, even have a few names picked out. "But we're not telling anyone," Hudson says. "People tell you so much [when they're pregnant], it drives me nuts."

The Golden Globe-winning actress also puts to rest rumors that she and Bellamy recently got engaged. "No, no, not that I know of!" she says. "I don't like putting that sort of pressure on it, and I don't feel it necessary to get married."

She adds: "I am 31, I already have one child and have had one divorce, so it is not necessarily the golden ticket. I just want to be happy."

Of Hudson, an on-set source said pregnancy seems to agree with the actress. "Kate was so lovely and happy," says the source. "Everyone commented afterwards at how beautiful she looked pregnant. She was literally beaming."
