Talking points

1 Mariah Carey insists she waited so long to announce her pregnancy because a miscarriage in 2008 made her and husband Nick Cannon superstitious, she tells Hello! magazine. “I became extra superstitious and overly cautious because of what we had gone through a year and a half ago, so didn’t want to talk about it publicly for a long time during the first trimester,” she says. “It’s always difficult when you are in love with the man who is your soulmate for life, and you are both really happy and excited about a prospective child being born.”

2 Leonardo DiCaprio and Bar Refaeli sparked engagement rumors recently when his mom joined them in Israel to meet her parents, but the speculation is just that, sources tell Us Weekly. While DiCaprio’s mom got to meet Refaeli’s parents, a source insists the trip is “just a vacation,” and that they are in Israel to celebrate DiCaprio’s birthday.

3 While Lindsay Lohan has been planning to play Linda Lovelace in the upcoming “Inferno,” the film’s director says he’s prepared for the possibility that her stint in rehab gets in the way. “You know we have been through a lot with this project, and although she is still our No. 1 choice, we do have a plan B if she cannot film ‘Inferno,’” Matthew Wilder tells Radar Online. “And actually, we have had a great response from other people who really want the part, too. But we will wait until Lindsay has fulfilled all of her rehab and court obligations to see if she will be able to take her place as we had originally planned.”
