ScarJo wants it all

Johansson, expecting her first child (with fiancé Romain Dauriac), says she’ll be a working mother and carry on with her movie career.
“It seems so stressful to not be able to spend time with your family because you’re constantly chasing the tail of your own success. There must exist a world in which I can balance those things,” she told the Wall Street Journal, while doing interviews to plug her new Captain America movie.
ScarJo told the paper’s magazine that she wants to “be able to raise a family and still make a film a year, or work on my own, develop things, do theatre. I want to be able to have it all. Selfishly.’’
The baby is reportedly due sometime in August.
She’s 29.
Singer Andrea Bocelli and his longtime main squeeze (and manager) Veronica Berti got married Friday in Livorno, Italy, People mag reports.
The two, a couple for 12 years, chose the date because it was also the second birthday of their daughter Virginia. Bocelli’s two teenage sons from a previous marriage were also present.
Andy was 43 and Veronica was 18 when they started dating, evidently, because now he’s 55 and she’s 30.
In Australia, a big insulated picnic cooler is known as an Esky. Put wheels and a motor and steering gear on one, fill it up with bottles of beer, plastic bags of wine, and some cans of bourbon, and you’ve got — well, you’ve got trouble, if you ride around on it while drunk.
The Fraser Coast Chronicle, my favourite among the small papers in Queensland (I read ’em all!) had the story.
The inventive 38-year-old drunk, not named, was riding his Esky down a bike path at 4:45 p.m. last Friday when he was spotted by the cops.
He blew 0.3 on the breathalyzer, and so has been charged with driving under the influence, driving unlicenced, driving uninsured, and everything else the cops could think of, once they stopped laughing.
Kaley Cuoco, of The Big Bang Theory, has had her wedding date tattooed between her shoulders, in Roman numerals.
You’ll recall that she married tennis pro Ryan Sweeting last New Year’s Eve.
She’s 28. Strange ailments of the stars: Country singer LeAnn Rimes had to cut short a show in Oklahoma the other night, because she dislocated her jaw while singing.
She later tweeted this: “Oklahoma!!!! I love you so much! I’m sorry for no encore. I had my jaw pop out of place & I can’t hear out of my left ear. #tmjsucks”
That last part refers to temporomandibular joint disorder, a medical condition involving the joint of the jaw.
She’s 33.
The Council of Fashion Designers of America will name Rihanna their “Fashion Icon of the Year” at a New York ceremony in June.
Strange choice. Ri-Ri is often photographed in micro-shorts, crop-tops, see-through everything, or beachwear.
On the other hand, Lady Gaga has won this award, too. I wonder what these people think the word “icon” means.
