Scarlett Johansson Writes Congressman Miller

Time after time celebrities use their notoriety for a good cause. This is one of them. Scarlett Johansson has written Congressman George Miller in order to ask him to support the Healthy School Meals Act of 2010. This act, initiated by Representative Jared Polis, would reward school districts for offering plant-based vegetarian options and healthful non-dairy beverages. Johansson has been an advocate for feeding hungy children and in the letter states the importance of providing children with heathly lunchroom meals filled with more fruits and vegetables in order to promote a healthy lifestyle and to combat childhood obesity.

Johansson wrote, "School is an environment where children develop life skills, skills that help them to become responsible young people who will one day be able to care for themselves. A means to a healthy diet and nutritional education must begin in the school cafeteria, on the lunch line". We should all follow her example and push for this act.

Octomom Homeless?

It appears Nadya Suleman or "Octomom", has fallen behind on recent mortgage payments and may lose her house. The house she bought in 2009 in La Habra is in jeopardy since she has not made the recent mortgage payment of $4,139 or paid the mass amount of $450,000 that was owed on March 10, 2010. The seller, Amer Haddadin, originally sold the house to Sulemen and put the title of the house in Suleman's father's name with the agreement that she would make the monthly payments for one year and pay the large sum on the due date. Now it seems he is pretty upset and a rep for him has been speaking to the media. This isn't the first time either. She has been late on a couple of other payments as well.

Poor kids! It doesn't look like any of the 14 children will ever have a sense of stability because of their mother's choices.

Was Another Woman The Reason Kate Winslet & Sam Mendes Split?

Kate Winslet is a beautiful and talented actress. She seemed to have it all, the career, two children, and a husband. So news of a divorce struck most people by surprise. Apparently, the two split in the beginning of this year and it was amicable. However, there are those that suggest it may have something to do with the amount of time Mendes has been spending with an actress by the name of Rebecca Hall. Although he is currently in New York with the actress, Mendes has stated that the two are only friends. Winslet is currently in Mexico with her children and has said to be leaning on her dear friend Leonardo DiCaprio for support.

The two were married in 2003 and have a son together. Winslet has a daughter from a previous marriage.
