Her affair with Rupert Sanders has already taken a toll on her personal life, as Kristen Stewart finds herself reportedly single, unshowered and generally depressed.
But a new report reveals a major professional consequence: the actress has been dropped from any subsequent Snow White and the Huntsman sequels.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, a follow-up to this summer hit - if there is one - will now focus on Chris Hemsworth's Huntsman instead of the beloved fairy tale character Stewart brought to life on the big screen. Though unconfirmed, it's likely Sanders will return to direct the film.

The original grossed nearly $400 million worldwide and Universal had strongly been considering plans for a sequel. In this same article, a spokesperson simply tells the trade that the "studio is currently exploring options to continue the franchise."

Chelsea Clinton is featured in the new issue of Vogue magazine.
In it, she muses that like her famous parents - Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former President Bill Clinton - she may seek office too one day. "Before my mom's campaign I would have said no," Chelsea said.

However, "If there were to be a point where it was something I felt called to do and I didn't think there was someone who was sufficiently committed to building a healthier, more equitable, more just, more productive world?" "Then that would be a question I'd have to ask and answer."
Clinton, 32, who married investment banker Marc Mezvinsky in 2010, said her celebrity is "something I could continue to ignore or it was something I could try to use to highlight causes that I really cared about," she told Vogue. "I believe that there are many ways for each of us to play our part. For a very long time that's what my mom did. And then she went into elected public life. Her life is a testament to the principle that there are many ways to serve."
"Historically I deliberately tried to lead a private life in the public eye," she said. "And now I am trying to lead a purposefully public life."

Zaaki Azzay's 8 year marriage ends

After 8 years and three children together, Zaaki Azzay's marriage to Hadiza Azzay has ended. The marriage actually ended four months ago but we are all getting to know about it now because the ex-couple are involved in a bitter custody battle. The police are even now involved.
29 year old Hadiza told LindaIkeji she packed out of her husband's house on April 17th after being badly battered the day before by Zaaki. She was able to leave with two of her children, but the third one, her eldest child, is still living at home.
She said he had been battering her for years, sometimes he would beat her so much she would faint, but her family kept telling her to go back to him for the sake of their children. She said she left him twice last year but returned to him after much pressure from family and friends. But when the battery continued, she made up her mind to end her marriage for good because she didn't want to be another dead wife.
Hadiza was a housewife, so since leaving her husband she has been under the care of an NGO that takes care of battered women. They've given her and her children shelter and are taking up her case.
She will issue an official press statement telling her side of the story in the coming days...right now she's dealing with the police who arrested her for allegedly 'kidnapping' her own children. She says Zaaki has been using the police to harass her.
Don't know Zaaki's side of the story yet.

My husband supports my return to acting 100% - Dakore Akande

"I want to use this medium to clear the air. I don't know why they went ahead to say because I became a wife my career was over. That is a very archaic way of thinking. Women these day and age work. We have responsibilities. But I didn't say anything because everything one says about me and I react, I won't have time to do anything with my life. I am an actor but having a family is more important to me, and I am very sure my fans appreciate that. I considered my fans and I said to myself when my daughter is old enough, I would come back to the movie industry. She's almost one now. I am back to acting and my husband supports me returning to it 100%. If he was not supporting me, I would not be doing it." - Dakore Egbuson Akande
