Adam Levine and his wife, Behati Prinsloo, already have two daughters — but if it was up to Behati, she’d have three more…at minimum.

The Maroon 5 frontman and the model already share Dusty Rose, 5, and Gio, 3, but Behati tells Entertainment Tonight, “I do also want five kids…we want a big family, who knows, we’re leaving it up to fate and just what happens. What will happen, will happen. So there’s no limits to it.”

Behati says that during lockdown, she started thinking that perhaps she and Adam should start expanding their family.  “With COVID too, I was just seeing them together, I’m like, ‘Maybe we should have a third just to have more kids,’ because it was so sweet to see [them together],” she explains. “But then, I don’t know. Never say never.”

Back in 2018, Adam told Ellen DeGeneres, “[Behati] was an only child, so she wants, like, 100 babies. I don’t know if I can do that. That’s a lot of babies.”  However, last year in an interview, Adam joked that his wife would “punch me in the f***ing face” if he asked her for another child, “because she’s not ready.”

In addition to parenting their kids, Behati and Adam are also working together on their new tequila brand, Calirosa Tequila.  “It’s honestly been really fun for us,” she says. “I think at the core of it, we’re truly best friends…we have so much fun together that we always want to be together. So we make that happen…we’re just a good team.”  Aww.

Brothers Osborne’s Vocal Duo of the Year win at Wednesday night’s CMA Awards was extra sweet for band mate TJ Osborne in one big way. The singer, who came out as gay early in 2021, got to bring his boyfriend, Abi Ventura, to the show.

The couple even shared a celebratory kiss before TJ and his brother and band mate, John Osborne, took the stage for their acceptance speech.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight after the show, TJ admitted that he had some doubts about whether or not he should bring Abi to the CMAs this year. “I was like, ‘I hope this doesn’t make anyone uncomfortable, but this is how I feel,’” he recounts.

Abi was nervous about their public appearance as a couple, too, TJ adds: “He was probably more nervous than anybody and he probably felt incredibly uncomfortable.”

Still, the singer was excited to attend country music’s biggest night on the arm of someone he loves, and he was excited to share this part of his life with his fans.

“I love this person, and I want to be open in every way,” TJ continues. “Hopefully [it can] show people that they also don’t need to hide or alter themselves in any way.”

Brothers Osborne also performed their song, “Younger Me,” at the show. Onstage, TJ spoke about watching the CMA Awards as a younger person, and how he thought he could never be a part of the show because he was gay.

The emotional highlight of Will Smith‘s appearance Tuesday night in New York City to promote his self-titled memoir was the thunderous ovation received by one of the original stars of The Fresh Prince of Bel-AirJanet Hubert.

The actress left the series in 1993, after three seasons in the role of Aunt Viv, and was replaced by Daphne Maxwell Reid. Since then, Hubert had a bitter public feud with Smith for over 25 years, but finally made peace last year on the show’s 30th anniversary reunion on HBO Max. During Will Smith: An Evening of Stories with Friends at Brooklyn’s Kings Theatre, hosted by Spike Lee, the rapper/actor introduced Hubert, who was sitting in the audience.

“The original Aunt Viv! Get your flowers! Take it in! Take that in!,” Smith said as the 65-year-old actress cried while acknowledging a standing ovation.

“Janet and I a few months ago at the 30th anniversary of The Fresh Prince, for the first time [we] talked out the issues we had and it was one of the most healing experiences of my life,” Smith continued. “It was a big part of the place that working on this memoir got me into.” 

“I just want to thank you, Janet, for being open,” the King Richard star added, blowing her multiple kisses of thanks. “That’s a big part of the exploration I wanted to do in this book.”

“I will remember this moment for the rest of my life,” Hubert commented on Instagram. In words addressed to Will, she wrote, “You have grown into such a gracious, and humble man. So proud of you baby boy…yeah I know you are a grown a** man now. But you always felt like a son. Still do. Thank you sweetheart, luv you!”

“Doin’ This”: Luke Combs unleashes his new song + music video after debuting it at the CMAs

Newly minted CMA Entertainer of the Year Luke Combs shared a new song from the stage of the 2021 CMA Awards last night, and fans didn’t have to wait to hear the studio version, either. Directly after his performance, Luke dropped both the official track and music video for “Doin’ This.”

“Someone asked me once in an interview / ‘What was growing up like? Where’d you go to school?’ / ‘And what would you do if you weren’t doin’ this?’” Luke sings in the first verse of the song.

As the story line continues, “Doin’ This” imagines Luke’s life without stardom. He works a “dead-end job” to pay his bills, and drives “an old worn-out Dodge,” but through it all, he’s still a musician at heart, whether he’s playing to an empty room or a sold-out show. Even if he weren’t a famous country star, Luke explains, he’d still be “doin’ this.”

Luke also shared a music video to match, following the life of a small-town guy who never made it big as he goes about his day. At the end of the day, the man winds up sitting on his couch with his acoustic guitar and playing a show for two VIPS: His wife and young daughter.

Meanwhile, in real life, Luke’s “doin’ this” at the highest level in country music. He nabbed the CMA’s top prize at the awards show last night with his Entertainer of the Year win.

Taylor Swift and her fans love Tumblr, so it’s no surprise she’s used the platform to debut a clip of one of the “From the Vault” tracks we’ll be hearing Friday on Red (Taylor’s Version).

The song she’s previewing is “Babe,” but unlike some of the other “From the Vault” tracks, this song’s actually been released, albeit by another artist.  In 2018, the country duo Sugarland released their version of “Babe,” with guest vocals by Taylor, and it reached the top 10 on Billboard‘s Hot Country Songs chart.  Taylor also appeared in Sugarland’s video for the song.

“Babe” was originally co-written by Taylor and Pat Monahan of Train for the original 2012 version of Red, but didn’t make the album.

In other Taylor news, she’s revealed on Instagram that the “short film” she’s made for the 10-minute version of her fan-favorite song “All Too Well” will be out at 7 p.m. ET.  In addition to Sadie Sink and Dylan O’Brien, Taylor co-stars in the film, which she also wrote and directed.

Missing Hawaii girl’s adoptive parents arrested and charged with murder

(NEW YORK) — The adoptive parents of missing Isabella “Ariel” Kalua have been arrested and charged with second-degree murder after more than two months of investigations, according to the Honolulu Police Department.

Isabella would have turned 7 years old last week.

“It’s clear that [Isabella] was loved and missed by many people,” said Rade Vanic, HPD’s interim police chief. “Unfortunately, what began as a search for a missing girl turned into a murder investigation focused on the Kaluas. We believe that the evidence leads to the Kaluas and no one else.”

She was first reported missing on Sept. 13 in Waimanalo, Hawaii. HPD, the FBI and community members searched for Isabella for more than a week.

“Her photo and story touched the hearts of many in the community,” Vanic said. “We thank all of you for your efforts and concerns.”

Isaac and Lehua Kalua were arrested Wednesday. Investigators allege the couple murdered Kalua in mid-August, a month before she was reported missing. Police claim the Kaluas lied in their initial report, saying they last saw Isabella on Sept. 12 — a day before she was reported missing.

The Kaluas are being held without bail and will make their first court appearance on Friday.

Isabella’s four siblings have been taken into the custody of Child Welfare Services, according to police.

Isabella’s remains have not yet been recovered.

Lawyers for the Kaluas couldn’t immediately be reached by ABC News.

Investigators are urging anyone with information, including witnesses or people who had contact with Isabella and the Kalua family between August and September, to come forward.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crimestoppers at (808) 955-8300.

Anyone who may have witnessed neglect or abuse against the Kalua children is urged to call Child Welfare Services at 1-888-380-3088.

Why Adele isn’t interested in going on tour right now: “It’s too unpredictable”

Why Adele isn’t interested in going on tour right now: “It’s too unpredictable”

Now that Adele’s new album, 30, is a little more than a week away, fans want to know if the singer plans to bring them her new music live with some kind of tour, or even a Las Vegas residency. Well, sorry, but it’s not happening — at least not right now.  And you can blame the pandemic for that.

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Adele explains the idea of touring right now is “too unpredictable, with all the rules and stuff,” adding, “I don’t want anyone coming to my show scared. And I don’t want to get COVID, either.”

As for those rumors of a Las Vegas residency, Adele says she hasn’t lined one up “because there’s f***ing nothing available.”  Presumably, she means that all the venues where she might have considered playing are booked up.  However, Rolling Stone says next year, Adele plans to do “a few big shows,” including the two already announced for London’s Hyde park.

Elsewhere in the interview, Adele says 30 goes in chronological order, unfolding the story of “the emotional development she faced as her life was rapidly changing at the dawn of her thirties.”  One song, “My Little Love,” includes voice memos of her son Angelo, asking her questions about her divorce. 

Two other songs — “Woman Like Me” and “All Night Parking” — are about the first relationship Adele had after she and her husband Simon split up. “[It] was a great learning curve and nice to feel loved, but it was never going to work,” she said of the now-defunct romance.

As for Adele’s current boyfriend, Rich Paul, they met on the dance floor at a friend’s party. She describes that relationship as “incredible, openhearted, and [the] easiest” one she’s ever been in.
