Beyonce and Jay Z 'to learn genders of twins in March'

OHMYGOSSIP — Beyonce and Jay Z will reportedly learn the genders of their expected twins “in two weeks”.
The 35-year-old singer-songwriter – who revealed earlier this month via Instagram that she is pregnant – was apparently overheard telling guests at a pre-Oscars bash on Saturday night (25.02.17) that she and her rap star husband will know the genders of their twins in March.
A source told the New York Post newspaper: “She was telling people they’ll know the genders of the babies in two weeks.”
Despite the excitement and speculation surrounding Beyonce’s pregnancy announcement, the chart-topping star has so far declined to reveal when she is due to give birth.
However, the celebrity duo are planning to buy a 123-room mansion to accommodate their growing family.
The couple – who have five-year-old daughter Blue Ivy together – secretly viewed an £85 million Hollywood abode belonging to heiress Petra Stunt and her businessman husband James Stunt earlier in February.
A source said: “Beyonce and Jay Z are actively hunting for a house, something they can settle in for the next decade or so, and Petra’s place seems to be very appealing to them.
“They were shown around two weeks ago and are thinking about whether it works for them.
“They know with their expanding brood it’s time to get serious about laying some roots, and having a statement pad in Hollywood is at the top of their list.
“They loved the space and the size, they just need to work out if it’s the right fit for the future.”
But Beyonce and her 47-year-old husband are said to be reluctant to pay the asking price for the house, despite their vast wealth.
The source explained: “They said they want to get a good deal though, so they were keen on getting the price down.”

Jennifer Aniston remembers Bill Paxton in Oscars tribute

OHMYGOSSIP — Jennifer Aniston was moved to tears as she paid tribute to Bill Paxton before introducing the In Memoriam segment at the Oscars.
The ‘Cake’ actress took the time to honour the ‘Twister’ star – who died aged 61 on Saturday (25.02.17) after suffering complications after surgery – at Sunday’s (26.02.17) ceremony as she introduced the video tribute to those lost from Hollywood over the last year.
Speaking on stage at Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre said: “Whether a Prince leading the musical revolution, or a princess leading a rebellion in a galaxy far far away.
“Every one was a cherished member of our Hollywood family… as was beloved friend and actor who left us just yesterday, Bill Paxton.”
She then broke off to compose herself as she choked up before continuing the introduction.
She added: “Let us remember their lives and their beautiful work. All were loved, and all will be missed.”
Sara Bareilles gave a heartfelt performance of Joni Mitchell’s ‘Both Sides Now’ while images of film industry stars, including Anton Yelchin, Prince, Gene Wilder, Carrie Fisher and her mother Debbie Reynolds, John Hurt and Mary Tyler Moore were projected on screen.
The segment ended with Carrie in her most famous role as ‘Star Wars’ Princess Leia saying: “May the Force be with you.”
Shortly after the performance, the Academy posted a photo gallery of more than 200 recently deceased Hollywood professionals on Oscars.com.

Moonlight wins Best Picture Oscar

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Moonlight’ was the winner of the coveted Best Picture award at the Oscars on Sunday (26.02.17) – but ‘La La Land’ was initially read out as having scooped the honour.
Chaos reigned at Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre when veteran actor Warren Beatty mistakenly announced the winner of the night’s most prestigious honour had gone to the musical – which had been favourite to take the accolade – only for the acceptance speeches to be interrupted and the real winner revealed.
The ‘La La Land’ team were told: “I’m sorry, no, there’s a mistake. This is not a joke, ‘Moonlight’ has won Best Picture. This is not a joke. Moonlight has won Best Picture.”
Warren then said: “This is not a joke, I’m afraid I read the wrong thing.”
Host Jimmy Kimmel then took to the stage and said: “This is very unfortunate what happened. I would like to see you get an Oscar anyway, why can’t we just give out a whole bunch?”
Warren – who was presenting the award with Faye Dunaway – had taken some time to read out the winner and explained he had been given the wrong envelope.
He said: “I opened the envelope and it said Emma Stone, ‘La La Land’ – that’s why I took such a long look at you and Faye.
“I wasn’t trying to be funny.”
He then re-presented the prize to ‘Moonlight’ but director Barry Jenkins appeared too stunned by the turn of events to give a proper speech.
Earlier in the evening, Mahershala Ali – who stars in the film opposite Naomie Harris – picked up the Best Supporting Actor prize, while the film also took the Best Adapted Screenplay award.

La La Land leads Oscar winners

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘La La Land’ was the big winner at this year’s Academy Awards, taking home six prizes.
The blockbuster musical had been nominated for a record-breaking 14 awards and had a very successful evening at Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre on Sunday (26.02.17) with a string of honours, including Best Actress for Emma Stone and Best Director for Damien Chazelle.
However, though the production was announced by Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway as having won the night’s biggest prize, Best Picture, as the ‘La La Land’ team took to the stage to accept the honour, they were then told there had been an error and ‘Moonlight’ was the actual winner.
But the film did win prizes for cinematography and production design, Best Original Song for ‘City of Stars’ and Best Original Score.
As he picked up the Best Original Score prize, Justin Hurwitz thanked “all the LA musicians” for bringing his work to life, and also praised the film’s director and stars Emma and Ryan Gosling.
He said: “Thanks to the LA musicians who worked on the film. I just put notes on the page – they’re the ones who made it sound beautiful.
“This film was made with so much love, passion and struggles and it was all thanks to you, Damien.
“You’re a poetic genius and I’m so happy I met you and I really love you man. Emma, Ryan, I think you’re incredible, thanks for all the collaboration.”
As Emma picked up her award, she paid tribute to her fellow nominees Meryl Streep, Ruth Negga, Isabelle Huppert and Natalie Portman in her speech.
She said: “To the women in this category – you were all so extraordinary and I look up to you and admire you.
“It has been the greatest honour to stand alongside you..”
She also thanked director Damien and Ryan for the “crazy adventure” of making the movie.
She added: “I realise a moment like this is a huge confluence of luck and opportunity so I want to thank Damien Chazelle to be given the opportunity. Ryan Gosling, thank you for making me laugh and always raising the bar and being the best partner on this crazy adventure.
“To all the people that worked on this movie, I’m going to find you all individually and I’m going to thank you. I’m going to hug the hell out of you when the feeling re-enters my body. I still have a lot of growing and learning to do, and this guy (the Oscar statue) is a really beautiful symbol of continuing to do that.”
Damien, 32, is the youngest person to ever win Best Director and said he was “floored and honoured” to be nominated.
He also paid tribute to his partner Olivia Hamilton.
He said: “This was a movie about love, and I was lucky enough to fall in love while making it.”

Viola Davis makes awards history

OHMYGOSSIP — Viola Davis has made history as the first black actress to win at the Oscars, Emmy and Tony Awards.
The 51-year-old star picked up the Best Supporting Actress prize for her role in ‘Fences’ at Sunday’s (26.02.17) Academy Awards and became one of just 22 stars to reach the feat.
While Whoopi Goldberg has also achieved the honour, her Tony award was for producing.
In her speech, Viola tearfully spoke about her life as an actress as she praised playwright August Wilson for writing ‘Fences’.
She told the audience at Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre: “People ask me all the time, what kind of stories do you want to tell, Viola? And I say, exhume those bodies, exhume those stories, the stories of the people who dreamed.
“I became an artist, and thank god I did, because we are the only profession that celebrates what it means to live a life. So here’s to August Wilson, who exhumed and exalted the ordinary people.”
And she touchingly also praised her “captain” and co-star Denzel Washington.
She said: “Oh captain, my captain. Thank you for putting two entities in the driving seat: August and God. And they served you well.”
Meanwhile, ‘Moonlight’ star Mahershala Ali became the first Muslim actor to win an Oscar when he picked up the Best Supporting Actor prize.
The 43-year-old star hailed his career as being a “servant” as he thanked all the “teachers” in his life.
He said: “I want to thank my teachers, my professors, my so many wonderful teachers. One thing that they consistently told me… Ron van Lou, Ken Washington, said it wasn’t about you. It’s not about you. It’s about these characters. You are a servant. You’re in service to these stories and these characters and I’m so blessed to have had an opportunity.”
And he also praised his wife Amati Sami-Karim, who gave birth to their daughter Bari a few days ago.
He said: “Lastly, I just want to thank my wife, who is in her third trimester during award season. We just had our daughter three days ago. I just want to thank her for being such a soldier through this process and help and really carrying me through it all, so, thank you, really appreciate it. Peace and blessings.”

Casey Affleck and Emma Stone take top acting honours at Oscars

OHMYGOSSIP — Casey Affleck and Emma Stone have picked up the top acting honours at the Academy Awards.
The 41-year-old actor beat off competition from the likes of Andrew Garfield, Ryan Gosling, and Viggo Mortensen to pick up the coveted Best Actor honour for his role in Manchester by the Sea at the Oscars on Sunday (26.02.17) and in his speech, he opened by thanking fellow nominee Denzel Washington.
The emotional star said: “It means so much to me, thank you. Dammit. One of the first people who taught me how to act is Denzel Washington and I just met him tonight for the first time.
“I’m only here because of all the talent and goodwill of so many people impossible to name.”
And Casey – who also thanked the film’s director and producer Kenneth Lonergan and producer Matt Damon – admitted he was “dumbfounded” to even be nominated for the award.
He said: “I wish I had something bigger and more meaningful to say. I’m just dumbfounded that I’m included.”
Meanwhile, Emma picked up the Best Actress prize for her role in ‘La La Land’, and paid tribute to her fellow nominees Meryl Streep, Ruth Negga, Isabelle Huppert and Natalie Portman in her speech.

Beyonce and Jay Z view 85m home

OHMYGOSSIP — Beyonce and Jay Z are planning to buy a 123-room mansion to accommodate their growing family.
The couple – who have five-year-old daughter Blue Ivy together – recently announced they are expecting twins, and as part of their preparations for the new arrival, they secretly viewed an £85 million Hollywood abode belonging to heiress Petra Stunt and her businessman husband James Stunt earlier this month.
And the ‘Lemonade’ singer and her rap mogul spouse were said to have liked what they saw.
A source said: “Beyonce and Jay Z are actively hunting for a house, something they can settle in for the next decade or so, and Petra’s place seems to be very appealing to them.
“They were shown around two weeks ago and are thinking about whether it works for them.
“They know with their expanding brood it’s time to get serious about laying some roots, and having a statement pad in Hollywood is at the top of their list.
“They loved the space and the size, they just need to work out if it’s the right fit for the future.”
However, despite the vast fortune of Beyonce, 35, and her 47-year-old husband, they are reluctant to pay the asking price for the house.
The source told The Sun newspaper: “They said they want to get a good deal though, so they were keen on getting the price down.”
The property is spread over 57,000 square feet and boasts 14 bedrooms and 27 bathrooms, and also has plenty to keep the family occupied, including an aquarium in the study, a bowling alley, swimming pool, a nightclub in the basement and even an entire room dedicated to giftwrapping.
The insider added: “There’s an amazing pool for the kids, gift-wrapping rooms, a screening room and a top-notch gym space, so it has everything they’re going to need.
“More than anything they just want a pad that gives them the calm and serenity they need in their lives.”

Lily Collins' infertility fear

OHMYGOSSIP — Lily Collins feared her eating disorder would leave her infertile.
The 27-year-old actress used to binge on “every type of junk food possible” and then force herself to vomit, and her problem took its toll on her health and appearance.
She wrote in her autobiography ‘Unfiltered: No Shame, No Regrets, Just Me: “My hair and nails became brittle. My throat burnt and my oesophagus ached. My period stopped for a couple of years. I was terrified I had ruined my chances of having kids.
“I was convinced that I had f***ed myself up beyond repair.”
In the upcoming tome, the ‘To The Bone’ star explained how she felt her eating disorder began when her famous father Phil Collins divorced his third wife Orianne Cevey and a “terrible disconnect” grew between them as she got older.
In an extract, published in The Times Magazine, she said: “Many of my deepest insecurities stem from these issues with my dad.”
The ‘Mirror, Mirror’ actress wrote a loving letter to her father but she insists he hasn’t seen it yet.
She said: “It’s not something I really want to email. I want to present it physically. I want to be in the room, you know? That’s the kind of thing that you don’t just send off willy-nilly.”
Lily previously admitted writing her book and playing a young woman gripped by an eating disorder in her new movie ‘To The Bone’ helped her face her “fear” of eating disorders “dead on”.
She said: “This was definitely a more dramatic role for me. I suffered with eating disorders when I was a teenager as well.
“I wrote a book last year, and I wrote my chapter on my experiences a week before I got [writer-director Marti Noxon’s] script. It was like the universe putting these things in my sphere to help me face, kind of dead on, a fear that I used to have.
“It did require a different set of emotional skills, to go back in time for me, with my experiences. So definitely a different type of film for me to do, very, very personal.”

Jamie Lee Curtis remembers Bill Paxton

OHMYGOSSIP — Jamie Lee Curtis thinks Bill Paxton’s death is “terribly sad”.
The 58-year-old actress is very upset that her ‘True Lies’ co-star passed away on Saturday (25.02.17) at the age of 61 due to complications from surgery and has paid tribute to her friend.
She said: “It’s always unexpected when someone is young and not seemingly ill. It’s just so terribly sad.
“I’ve been in communication with [‘True Lies’ director] Jim Cameron today and Bill had – Bill had that rare ability to be a really serious kind of stupid person.”
And Jamie praised Bill’s talent, insisting ‘True Lies’ would never have been the film that it was without his involvement.
She told People: “[In ‘True Lies’] he played this guy with such commitment to his conviction to try to basically score on women, but created that entire world that he believed so strongly would land him some women and just his conviction in that is what made it so funny.
“With anyone else, it would have been a joke, but it wasn’t a joke to him. That knucklehead was so committed and that’s why [my character], an intelligent woman, would fall pretty to him. If I was not a smart person, you’d go, ‘This would never work. Why would Helen ever fall for him?’ It was his gift. His commitment in whatever it was – he was someone who threw himself into whatever he was doing.”
And the actress admitted she often tries to “emulate” the “investment in truth” that Bill – who is survived by wife Louise Newbury and their children James and Lydia – always showed in his work.
She added: “My memory, of course, first thing went to that scene in his trailer where he’s trying to woo her and Arnold [Schwarzenegger] and everyone shows up.
“His commitment to that truth as an actor was really what made him so unique and special.
The specificity of truth. I try and emulate that in my work but his investment in truth – be it a drama or a comedy – is what set him apart.
“And he was a talented filmmaker and a writer and a creative – and when you have a creator, you have an energy that is very special.”

Gillian Anderson's parenting struggle

OHMYGOSSIP — Gillian Anderson doesn’t find being a parent “easy”.
The ‘Fall’ actress – who has daughter Piper, 22, with ex-husband Clyde Klotz and sons Oscar, 10, and Felix, eight, with former partner Mark Griffiths – admits she feels a constant “pressure” to either be with her kids or do something else, and sometimes can’t bear the noise and chaos of her household.
She said: “[Maybe other mothers have] tougher nerve endings.
“[I do the] right thing [and play but] my kids can sense it’s not easy for me. I struggled when Piper was little as well.
“I remember getting restless and feeling this pressure that I should be doing something else, but when I was doing something else feeling this pressure that I should be with my child.
“It’s that constant tug of war…and I don’t think I’m alone with that. I try to be tolerant and patient.
“How I am in the house depends on my time of the month: I’m either embracing of the noise or it’s nails on a chalk board. But they know that it’s just Mum. There’s an acceptance and a lovingness.”
The 48-year-old actress is much older than her siblings, the late Aaron – who died from a brain tumour in 2011 aged 30 – and Zoe – and it was “really important” to her that she had a third child as there had been a similar large gap between Piper and Oscar, and Gillian is fascinated by watching her boys interact because it is nothing she has ever experienced.
She told You magazine: “It was really important to me that Oscar had [another] sibling because Piper felt like an only child, Oscar’s dad was an only child and I didn’t want to repeat that with Oscar.
“So his relationship with his brother is something new to me. I’ve never observed similar-age sibling relationships before and it’s really fascinating and beautiful.
“Independence-wise being an only child is good, but there are traits that I have seen in other only children: being quite selfish, not really wanting to share.
“It’s taken a long time for me to push the boundaries of those and be less controlling, less protective of my world and my space.”
The former ‘X Files’ star regrets “missing out” on her younger years of fame because she was so obsessed and worried about her appearance to enjoy herself.
She admitted: “For years I was very self-centred and focused on my body, my weight, and it caused so much sadness. That really moves me now, just how much of my younger life I missed out on because I was so focused on my thighs or my outfit; it was such a waste of time.”

Kate Bosworth wants kids

OHMYGOSSIP — Kate Bosworth wants to have children “soonish”.
The ‘SS-GB’ actress is ready to start a family with her husband Michael Polish – who she married in 2013 after two years of dating – and is hopeful she’ll get pregnant in the near future.
She said: “[Having children I hope] will be coming soonish. I don’t know when, but at some point.”
But before she does have a child of her own, Kate enjoys being a stepmother to 19-year-old Jasper, Michael’s daughter from his marriage to Jo Strettell, and they have a “very close” relationship.
Discussing how relieved she feels about being out of her 20s, Kate said: “I’m so glad they’re in my rear-view. I have a 19-year-old stepdaughter who’s going into that phase.
“She and I are very close. We spoke the other day and I said, ‘Look, I’m not going to sugarcoat this for you, but 19 to 23 – it’s a rough ride.’ ”
And when Kate first met Michael, 46, when he directed her in ‘Big Sur’, she wasn’t put off by the fact he had a daughter, who was 14 at the time.
She told Stella magazine: “I was thrilled; I’ve never had a sister, so I was hoping I’d experience something I’d not had before. I felt very protective of her – when we met it was an immediate click.
“Although recently I heard her tell this story from her point of view, and she said, ‘Oh, yeah, I was ready to go into that meeting hating her.’
“I had no idea, she’s so nice! The idea of her hating anyone is unthinkable. I think she was nervous of the ‘actress’ element… so I understood that.
“That’s a part of my life, but when I’m home, that’s not me at all. I think she appreciated that pretty quickly.”
The ‘Still Alice’ star admitted she felt like she’d been “punched in the face” when she first fell for Michael.
She said: “For me it was like having a mentor, and I’d never had that. I went to meet him for a coffee, and when he walked in, I felt like I was going to fall off my chair. Love punched me in the face. From that moment, that was it.”
The blonde beauty also hadn’t even thought about ever getting married until she met her director partner.
She recalled: “I never really thought about it very much. I wasn’t the type of person who thought about the dress… It wasn’t until I met the man that all those details fell into place.”

Jay Z and Beyonce late for Harvey Weinstein's party

OHMYGOSSIP — Harvey Weinstein had the entertainment at his pre-Oscars party re-started because Jay Z and Beyoncé arrived late.
The couple – who have five-year-old daughter Blue Ivy and are expecting twins together – made a surprise appearance at the movie mogul’s lavish bash at the Montage Beverly Hills on Saturday (25.02.17), but when they got there, Cynthia Erivo, Chris Jackson and Corbin Bleu were already in the middle of their ‘In the Heights’ medley.
According to the New York Post newspaper’s Page Six column, Harvey urged the singers – who had been introduced by the show’s creator Lin-Manuel Miranda – to stay on stage and perform “the first five minutes” again, much to the delight of the star-studded crowd.
Harvey poked fun at the rap mogul’s lateness, but added: “He’s got a good reason if you look at his wife.”
And Jay will have been keen to hear the performance as The Weinstein Company are making a film of ‘In the Heights’, and Harvey revealed on stage at the party that the ’99 Problems’ hitmaker will be one of the producers on the movie musical.
According to People magazine, Beyonce enjoyed the chocolate dessert being served at the party and was seen chatting with Harvey’s wife, fashion designer Georgina Chapman, but she and her husband left the celebrations just 30 minutes after they had arrived.
The party was held in honour of ‘Lion’, which has six Oscar nominations, and the movie’s stars Dev Patel and Nicole Kidman were in attendance, alongside the likes of Matthew Morrison, Kelsey Grammer, Zac Posen, Salman Rushdie and Diane Warren.
In addition, Nicole Scherzinger and ‘Lion’ composers Dustin O’Halloran and Volker Bertelmann, aka Hauscha, also performed at the bash.

Stars pay tribute to Bill Paxton

OHMYGOSSIP — Tom Hanks, James Cameron and Rob Lowe are among the stars to have paid tribute to Bill Paxton following his death.
The 61-year-old actor passed away on Saturday (25.02.17) after suffering complications from surgery and his ‘Apollo 13’ co-star will always remember him as a “wonderful” man.
Tom wrote: “Bill Paxton was, simply, a wonderful man. A wonderful man… Hanx. (sic)”
Meanwhile, James previously directed Bill – who is survived by wife Louise Newbury and their two children, James and Lydia – in a number of movies, including ‘Titanic’, ‘The Terminator’ and ‘True Lies’ and paid a heartfelt tribute to his friend, admitting he is stunned by the news of his passing.
He said in a statement to Vanity Fair: “I’ve been reeling from this for the past half hour, trying to wrap my mind and heart around it. Bill leaves such a void.
“He and I were close friends for 36 years, since we met on the set of a Roger Corman ultra-low budget movie.
“He came in to work on set, and I slapped a paint brush in his hand and pointed to a wall, saying ‘Paint that!’ We quickly recognised the creative spark in each other and became fast friends.
“What followed was 36 years of making films together, helping develop each other’s projects, going on scuba diving trips together, watching each other’s kids growing up, even diving the Titanic wreck together in Russian subs.
“It was a friendship of laughter, adventure, love of cinema, and mutual respect.
“Bill wrote beautiful heartfelt and thoughtful letters, an anachronism in this age of digital shorthand. He took good care of his relationships with people, always caring and present for others.
“He was a good man, a great actor, and a creative dynamo.
“I hope that amid the gaudy din of Oscar night, people will take a moment to remember this wonderful man, not just for all the hours of joy he brought to us with his vivid screen presence, but for the great human that he was.
“The world is a lesser place for his passing, and I will profoundly miss him.”
And Rob, who starred with Bill in ‘Frank & Jesse’ is “devastated” by the news.
He wrote: “Devastated by the sudden loss of my close friend and one of the finest actors in the business, Bill Paxton.
“Renaissance man, raconteur and uniquely American national treasure. His filmography speaks for itself. His friendship was a blessing. My love to Bunny, James and Lydia.
“In his memory, on this Oscar Sunday, watch “One False Move” or “A Simple Plan” to see this lovely leading man, at his finest.(sic)”
Bill’s former ‘True Lies’ co-star Arnold Schwarzenegger praised him for both his talent and kindness off screen.
He tweeted: “Bill Paxton could play any role, but he was best at being Bill – a great human being with a huge heart. My thoughts are with his family.”
Charlize Theron also paid tribute to her “great friend” and ‘Mighty Joe Young’ co-star.
She posted: “You were a great friend to me, Bill. AND one of the finest actors to share a set with. Sending so much love to Bill Paxton’s family.”

Jimmy Kimmel didn't confide Oscar news in Neil Patrick Harris

OHMYGOSSIP — Jimmy Kimmel told Neil Patrick Harris he wasn’t presenting the Oscars – “right before” he was confirmed as host.
The 49-year-old star will front the star-studded ceremony on Sunday (26.02.17) but didn’t ask the 2015 host for any advice before his role was confirmed.
Neil recalled: “The last time I talked to Jimmy was right before he announced he was doing it. I had gone to L.A. to do a kids show sponsored by RED, the AIDS Foundation, and I saw him afterwards and I said, ‘Are you going to do it or what? You’re on ABC, the show is on ABC,’ and he said ‘No, I’m not going to do it.’ Then a week later he announced he’s doing it.”
But the ‘A Series of Unfortunate Events’ star doesn’t mind not being let in on the secret and thinks Jimmy will do a great job.
He said: “I couldn’t be happier, I can’t wait to see what he does.
“I hope he brought his tap shoes … I hope he’s doing a tap number because of ‘La La Land’. I assume there will be not a lot of singing and dancing by Jimmy Kimmel but he could surprise us all.
“He could rap! He could do a Lin-Manuel Miranda-esque rap about all the shows.”
The 43-year-old star also suggested Jimmy could give out alcohol to the attendees, following previous hosts Chris Rock and Ellen DeGeneres delighting the audiences with Girl Scout cookies and pizza – but he quickly realised that wasn’t the best idea.
He told People: “Maybe [he could give out] airplane bottles of alcohol. It seems like the crowd would appreciate that more than a thin mint/
“Although, the crowd fills in with non-winners at the Oscars. So, it gets a little surly by the last half hour.”

Olivia Culpo's glass dress

OHMYGOSSIP — Olivia Culpo will wear a dress made from glass to the Oscars.
The 24-year-old model-and-actress will don a custom creation from Marchesa designers Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig on the red carpet at Sunday’s (26.02.17) academy awards, with the gown helping to raise awareness for Stella Artois and Water.org’s campaign to bring clean water to developing countries.
The designers have used elements from the drink’s company’s limited edition chalice in their ideas for Olivia’s gown, with the shimmer, gold accents and silhouette proving a source of inspiration, and their finished creation will incorporate one-of-a-kind glass beads made from the chalices.
Keren said: “We wanted to use the red carpet as a platform to get this important message across.
“So when we started designing we asked ourselves, ‘how can we make a dress for Olivia that’s beautiful, Oscar-worthy, and yet still really shines a light on this cause?'”
They then spent three months talking to the former Miss Universe about their idea, and came up with three possible designs and Olivia was delighted to be involved in the campaign.
She told Celebuzz: “I always like to try something new on the red carpet and this is such meaningful way to do it. The fact that it’s going to help provide water for people across the world is incredible.”
Olivia refused to reveal which of the three designs she has chosen for the event but promised it will be “fairytale”-like.
She said: “It’s easy to pinpoint a Marchesa dress because it’s always ethereal, whimsical, and looks like it’s almost out of a fairytale.”
For every limited-edition chalice sold, Stella Artois will assist Water.org in providing five years of clean water for one person in the developing world.

The ‘Crazy Stupid Love’ hitmaker – who is expecting her first child with the former One Direction singer – has reportedly had the last of her belongings taken from the Hertfordshire home she previously shared with second husband Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini as the couple want to raise their child in the 23-year-old star’s Surrey home.
The 33-year-old singer’s mother Joan Callaghan and brother Garry Tweedy were pictured helping out with the move as Cheryl’s belongings were taken away from the property by a van.
According to the Daily Star Sunday newspaper, Cheryl’s old six-bedroom home is now on the market and could be rented out for a staggering £18,746 per month.
It was reportedly last month that Cheryl and Liam had decided to make the ‘Little Things’ singer’s house their base.
A source previously said: “Cheryl spent all of Christmas at Liam’s, and she loves it there. That is going to be where they live together in the UK. They already have lots of amazing memories.”
And the couple will be free to raise their baby away from prying eyes because the house – which boasts an all-weather tennis court, cinema, heated outdoor pool, and a ballet studio – has “insane” security installed throughout.
When Liam moved into the house two years ago, a source said at the time: “The security is insane. Every part of the house and grounds are in camera isolation zones, many heat and motion monitored.”
While Cheryl has never officially confirmed her pregnancy, pictures for a new charity campaign for The Prince’s Trust with L’Oreal released earlier this week showed off her huge baby bump, and it has been claimed she is due to give birth next month.
A source said: “Cheryl is getting very excited to meet her baby. Her due date was mid to late March but she knows there is a two week window on either side so her baby could literally be here any day now!”
