What a week: Teresa Palmer became a mum, Simon Cowell became a dad, Charlie Sheen got engaged to a porn star, Footloose turned 30, Reality Bites turned 20, I separated from my husband …
Yup, it was all happening …
>> Aussie actress Teresa Palmer and husband Mark Webber welcomed a son, Bodhi Rain on Monday.
Teresa announced the happy news and shared the pic below via Instagram.
“Thank you God for blessing us with the most divine gift of our baby son. Introducing Bodhi Rain Palmer born safely, lovingly and naturally last night. 8 lbs. even. Bodhi means ‘Enlightened one,’ Rain means ‘Abundant Blessings From Above’ and we chose Palmer as his last name as Mark’s [5-year-old] son Isaac didn’t take his dad’s name either. Thanks for all the blessings and love everyone.”

>> Congratulations (I think) to Charlie Sheen, who got engaged for the fourth time over the weekend. He took his porn star girlfriend Brett Rossi to Hawaii for Valentine’s Day and surprised her by popping the question. “Perfect day,” Rossi tweeted. She later E! that her ring is “classic and beautiful,”
>> I love the story behind this pic. Ben Affleck thanked talk show host Jimmy Kimmel for getting behind a charity contest he and Matt Damon are running to benefit the Eastern Congo Initiative and Water.org on Twitter with the message: “@JimmyKimmel — I thank you buddy. And @easterncongo & @water thank you! Matt, on the other hand? Matt, you there? Right. We will fax you.”
The dig was a reference to Matt not having a Twitter account. Twitter CEO Dick Costolo added: “@BenAffleck, @JimmyKimmel, @water, we have printed out this tweet and placed it in a suitcase that we will have couriered over to Matt.”
As revenge, Matt photocopied his butt, and wrote a message saying: “Dear Ben and Jimmy, here’s my fax: Love MD.”
Kimmel shared the memo via Twitter, writing: “@BenAffleck — did you see what your ‘friend’ Matt faxed to us? NSFW.”
>> The Baftas were on last week and Tom Hanks was there to cheer on his Captain Phillips co-star, sharing this pic on WhoSay captioned: “Barkhad Abdi! BAFTA winner! He IS the captain now ! Somali champion !!! Hanx”

Grrrrrrross.
>> Nicole Ritchie went to see Britney Spears perform in Las Vegas and got pulled up on stage. While she shared a pic of herself hugging her old friend, she sadly didn’t include one of her crawling like a dog on stage while Britney walked her on a leash. Damn.
