Photo of Willow Smith in bed with older, shirtless actor raises concerns A PHOTO of Willow Smith is raising eyebrows. The 13-year-old daughter of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith was photographed lying in bed next to “Hannah Montana” alum and “Ender’s Game” star Moises Arias, 20. The “Whip My Hair” singer is dressed in pants and a top, but Arias, who played Rico on the Disney series, is shirtless in the shot, which he posted on Instagram. While there is no contact between them in the black and white photo, social media was on fire with comments branding it inappropriate. Arias — who is friends with Willow’s 15-year-old brother, Jaden, as well as his sometimes gal pal Kylie Jenner, 16, and her 18-year-old sister Kendall — deleted the photo from Instagram. While Arias hasn’t spoken out about the photo directly, a source close to him told Gossip Cop that Willow is “like a sister” to him, and he finds the speculation over a romantic relationship between them “disgusting” and “laughable.” Whether or not something inappropriate was happening between Moises and the just-barely-a-teen Willow, it’s her lesson to learn, according to the parenting style of her famous mom and dad. “We don’t do punishment,” Will told Metro last year during a joint interview with Jaden. “The way that we

deal with our kids is, they are responsible for their lives. Our concept is, as young as possible, give them as much control over their lives as possible and the concept of punishment, our experience has been — it has a little too much of a negative quality.” He continued, “So when they do things — and you know, Jaden, he’s done things — you can do anything you want as long as you can explain to me why that was the right thing to do for your life.” Both Will and Jada have long been letting Willow call the shots in her own life, including when she shaved

off most of her hair in 2012. It was a topic that Jada found herself publicly addressing when her parenting was called into question. “The question why I would let Willow cut her hair, first the let must be challenged,” Jada wrote on Facebook. “This is a world where women [and] girls are constantly reminded that they don’t belong to themselves — that their bodies are not their own, nor their power or selfdetermination. I made a promise to endow my little girl with the power to always know that her body, spirit and her mind are her domain.”

Jolie never thought she’d ‘be in love’ or ‘have children,’ ANGELINA Jolie has a successful career, a loving fiancé and six beautiful children. However, the A-lister didn’t always see her life turning out that way. “I never thought I’d have children, I never thought I’d be in love, I never thought I’d meet the right person,” Jolie told the June issue of Elle. “Having come from a broken home — you kind of accept that certain things feel like a fairy tale, and you just don’t look for them.” The 38-year-old actress, who stuns on Elle’s cover and inside the fashion mag, continued to open up about her personal life and relationship with actor beau, Brad Pitt. “You get together and you’re two individuals and you feel inspired by each other, you challenge each other, you complement each other, drive each other beautifully crazy,” she gushed. “After all these years, we have history — and when you have history with somebody, you’re friends in such a very real, deep way that there’s such a comfort, and an ease, and a deep love that comes from having been through quite a lot

together.” The Hollywood stars infamously got together after co-starring and meeting on the set of 2005’s “Mr. and Mrs. Smith.” The effortlessly chic brunette beauty said that while her future may

have looked blurry when she was young, she learned a long time ago to live life to the fullest. “(If) you don’t experiment, or you’re afraid, or you hesitate, or there are things you know you should do but you just don’t get around to them, is a life that I’d be miserable living, and the only way to feel that I’m on the right path is just to be true to myself, whatever that may be, and that tends to come with stepping out of something that’s maybe safe or traditional.” Jolie added that in her 20s she was “misinterpreted as wanting to be rebellious.” “And in fact it wasn’t a need to be destructive or rebellious — it’s that need to find a full voice, to push open the walls around you,” she explained. “You want to be free. And as you start to feel that you are being corralled into a certain life, you kind of push against it. It may come out very strange, it may be interpreted wrong, but you’re trying to find out who you are.” Next up for Jolie is her role as the villain in Disney’s “Maleficent.” (NYdailynews)

Swearing off bad language: Russia bans cussing in films, books, music THINKING about making a film? Better leave out the foul language if you want it to be seen in Russia. The same goes for plays. Even rock stars will need to leave their potty mouths at home. Russian President Vladimir Putin signed off on a new law Monday that bans swearing at arts, cultural and entertainment events in the country. Any new film containing obscene language won’t be granted a distribution certificate, so there’s no chance of seeing it at the movie theater. And copies of books, CDs or films containing swearing can only be distributed in a sealed package labeled “Contains obscene language,” a Kremlin statement said. According to state news agency ITAR-Tass, individuals

caught using foul language face a fine of up to $70, while officials can be fined up to $40 and businesses nearly $1,400. They face a higher fine and a three-month suspension of business for repeated offenses. Determination of what counts as profane language will be done through “an independent examination,” the news agency said. According to the Kremlin, the legislation “bans the use of obscene language when ensuring the rights of Russian citizens to the use of the state language, and protecting and developing language culture.” The law could come into effect as soon as July 1, ITAR-Tass said, but it doesn’t apply to cultural and artistic works that have already been issued.
