Victoria Secret model, Miranda Kerr revealed to Australian InStyle that she chose to not take any pain medication while giving birth to her son Flynn.

“I actually thought I was going to die at one point and left my body,” Kerr tells InStyle. “I was looking down on myself-the pain was so intense.”

Kerr said that she was determined; “But if other women can do this, I can do it too.”

Thankfully everything worked out okay for Kerr, her husband, Orlando Bloom, and their beautiful son Flynn.

Kind of scary to think about ‘natural’ births to be honest. But are they realistic? Just something to think about.

Orlando Bloom has been voted ‘Most Stylish Celebrity Dad,’ reports CTV.

The actor is a new dad to his five-month-old son Flynn, with supermodel wife Miranda Kerr.

In a poll conducted by MyCelebrityFashion.co.uk, Bloom beat out celebrities such as soccer star David Beckham and film hunk Matthew McConaughey for the top spot.

“With Father’s Day coming in the UK we wanted to put celebrity dads under the fashion spotlight. As a new dad, it was interesting to see Orlando Bloom fly straight into the charts and clinch the top spot as the ‘most stylish celebrity dad,’” says Andy Barr, the Marketing Director of MyCelebrityFashion.co.uk.

“The public evidently likes his eclectic style; and even though he beat David Beckham to the top spot, Beckham still managed to stay very near the top of the style charts with his ‘casual’ style.”

Bloom won by a sweeping 71 per cent, while Beckham was close by with 66 per cent.

The actor says fatherhood has changed his life, but apparently it hasn’t affected his sense of style.

“It’s awesome, I love it. I hate that word but I love being a father; it’s changed everything in so many ways… Miranda is an amazing mother.”

Here is the list of the top ten Most Stylish Celebrity Dads of 2011:

1. Orlando Bloom – 71 per cent
2. David Beckham – 66 per cent
3. Peter Andre – 59 per cent

The legendary Beastie Boys fought for their right to party nearly thirty years ago, yesterday they revisited their roots with more cameos than a season of “Entourage” would supply.

Short snippets of the video have been circulating around on TV and online, and the short-film does not disappoint. Featuring a battle-royale of sorts between the 1986 Beasties (Danny McBridge, Seth Rogan and Elijah Wood) dueling the future Beasties (John C. Reilly, Jack Black and Will Ferrell) and their acid-tripping rampage. Along the way, run in’s with various famous faces: Stanley Tucci, Jason Schwartzman, Susan Sarandon, Ted Danson, Mary Steenburgen, Jason Bateman, Amy Poehler, David Cross, Kirsten Dunst, Steve Buscemi, Rashida Jones, Rainn Wilson, Maya Rudolph and Chloe Sevigny. Oh yes, Orlando Bloom drops in for the shenanigans also.

Adam Yauch wrote and directed the footage of the trio’s short film and music video, in connection with his indie film company Oscilloscope Laboratories.

“Normally the song is king and the footage has to kind of bow down to it. With this I flipped it,” he said, explaining how he used sound effects and toyed with the track’s tempo to fit the narrative, such as it is.

The group’s ninth album, “Hot Sauce Committee Part Two,” is due May 3.

The legendary Beastie Boys have a new album “Hot Sauce Committee Pt 2″ coming out May 3rd, a new single and now a preview for the short film Fight for Your Right Revisited has hit the interweb.

Don’t like the Beasties? Well, check out the casting call: Elijah Wood, Will Ferrell, Danny McBride, John C. Reilly, Seth Rogen, Jack Black, Susan Sarandon, Stanley Tucci, Orlando Bloom, Kirsten Dunst, David Cross, Will Arnett, Amy Poehler, Jason Schwartzman, Adam Scott, Rainn Wilson, Steve Buscemi, Chloë Sevigny, Alicia Silverstone, Martin Starr, Ted Danson, Rashida Jones, R.E.M.’s Mike Mills, Ad-Rock, Mike D, and MCA.

The film premiered at Sundance Film Festival last month and received a mix of reviews. In the video, we find the Beastie Boys (Elijah Wood, Seth Rogan, Danny McBride)  in 1986 the day after the legendary “Fight for Your Right (To Party)” video took place. It is rumoured to be a long-running Saturday Night Live skit from there on out.

Judging by the preview, it appears to be some battle royale between past and present versions of the Beastie Boys. At the same time, it is between comedy of today versus yesterday. Some fascinating double-entendre, I do say.

Ch-ch-check it out!

It’s not a pirate’s life for him anymore, apparently.

When asked if he would come back for the next film, he reportedly replied, “Not this time. No. No. No.”

“Pirates of the Caribbean” director Gore Verbinski has jumped off deck and will not be directing the fourth installment of the Disney film, according to Variety.

“I had a fantastic time bringing ‘Pirates’ to life, and I am eternally grateful to Jerry [Bruckheimer], Johnny and the rest of the creative and production team,” Verbinski said to Variety. “I’m looking forward to all of us crossing paths again in the future.” 

Instead, Verbinski is set to work on “Bioshock,” based on the video game, according to Variety.The game tells the story of a man stranded in an underwater city.

Johnny Depp fans can relax because the actor is supposed to reprise the role of Captain Jack Sparrow. However, it doesn’t look like all of Depp’s cast-mates will be returning to the franchise. 

Keira Knightley has previously told MTV News that she’d like to do “different things” but outlined she had an “amazing journey” with the past three “Pirates of the Caribbean” films.

There has been no official word on whether Orlando Bloom will be returning in the movies as Will Turner.

The National Enquirer reports that Ryan Reynold’s jealous streak may be a threat to his engagement to Scarlett Johansson.

Reynolds is said to be insecure about the good-looking men Johansson works with. “He almost drove Scarlett away,” a source told The Enquirer. “Now that she is marrying him, she told him in no uncertain terms to quit being jealous – after all, he’s the one who is shattering many men’s dreams of getting sexy Scarlett down the aisle. But it drives him crazy when other guys flirt with her.”

Johansson just filmed a movie with Orlando Bloom and Ethan Hawke.

Move over, rehab. Courtney Love has credited an unlikely man with keeping her clean: Orlando Bloom.

Love told “Access Hollywood” that Bloom introduced her to the Buddhist lifestyle that finally changed her ways.

“We chant every day,” Love said. “The 12-step programme demands that you have a spiritual practice that you do daily.

“I don’t mind talking about it because it has changed my entire life, changed everything – restructured my body, restructured my physicality. Truly I can, not all the time, but I can take joy at really shitty situations.”

True to her name, Love said she loves Bloom for his influence, and that he “doesn’t mind being outed as a Buddhist.”

Orlando Bloom tried to walk away from a car crash last week, leaving his bleeding female friend, until paparazzi warned him the incident would be deemed a hit and run if he left.

Police claimed that Bloom did not appear drunk on the night of October 11, so he did not have to take a Breathalyzer test. However, paparazzi video from earlier in the evening show him acting strangely while leaving a club. He jumped into the car of a stranger and began yelling at the driver. A female then got in the back of the car and tried to separate them. Allegedly, the driver is the woman’s boyfriend, and Bloom had grabbed her inappropriately in the club.

Bloom then got into his own car with his two female friends. One woman started off as the driver, and according to reports, was so drunk that she repeatedly tried to start the car even though it was already running. Bloom later took over, and then ran into a parked car.

The injured woman was Cher Coulter, a celebrity stylist. She walked around the car holding her head before laying down on the pavement. At hospital it was revealed that the impact had fractured her neck vertebrae.

Bloom’s rep released a statement claiming Bloom called emergency services immediately after the crash.

Kirsten Dunst denied rumours that she and actor Orlando Bloom had an affair, just to set the record straight.

The misunderstanding occured during the filming of “Elizabethtown.”

Dunst, 23, told reporters at the Venice film festival these accusations were completely untrue, according to a report from The Daily Telegraph.

When asked about off screen romances in general, Dunst agreed it’s easy for actors to produce the allusion of an affair.

“There are so many charasmatic people in this industry and I can understand why people on location get together.”

About a week ago, Dunst was rumoured to have spotted looking at prenatal vitamins with her longtime boyfriend, Jake Gyllenhaal at a Los Angeles supermarket.

The couple reportedly split last year, but according to Teen Today.co.uk, Kirsten and Jake concocted stories of a break off to get away from the spotlight.

She’s described her new role in “Elizabethtown” as one of the best female parts she’s recieved in ages.

Love is back in style for twenty-something power couple Kate Bosworth and Orlando Bloom.

Bloom, 28, flew to Australia to visit Bosworth on the set of her upcoming Superman flick, Superman Returns, in late June.

“Orlando can?t stay away from Kate,” says a source from the London Mirror. “They?ve tried to be apart but it?s impossible when you are as in love as they are. He?s determined to woo her back.”

Reportedly, once Bosworth, 22, discovered he was flying in, she immediately dumped new boyfriend, model Lundi Shackleton, who is working on the Superman set as an assistant to director Bryan Singer.

Shackleton doesn’t have any hard feelings, though.

An on-set source says of Shackleton, “You can tell [Bosworth] respects him too. It’s all good – Orlando’s even met him.”

Bosworth and Bloom broke up in January because of distance issues.

Rumours flew that Bosworth had left the Lord of the Rings actor because he’d gotten too wrapped up in the Hollywood glitz.

In March, however, Bloom convinced Bosworth to join him at the exclusive Chateau Marmont Hotel to reconcile.

“Now it is a very serious relationship, and getting more serious with each passing day,” Femalefirst quoted an insider as saying.

Engagement rumours have also been circulating since Bloom visited Bosworth during two month hiatus from filming the Pirates of the Carribbean sequels. He supposedly gave her a ring worth $400,000.

Perhaps Bloom swung into action when he heard Tom Cruise was after Bosworth. She was reportedly among the young actresses Cruise had in mind while shopping for arm candy. He was also reportedly interested in Jessica Alba and Scarlett Johansson before choosing Katie Holmes.
