While on the subject, lets have a look at what some of these celebs have been up to lately...

It was announced last week that Kournikova will take over from Jillian Michaels as the head trainer on The Biggest Loser.
Shakira, who's seeing defender Gerard Pique, invited the player and a couple of his teammateson stage while performing a show in Pique's native Barcelona.
And the routine ended with Gerard wrapping his arms around his girlfriend, ten years his senior, in front of her audience at the Lluis Campanys Olympic Stadium.
Singer/actor Justin Timberlake couldn't believe his luck when the race car sponsored by his William Rast clothing line won the Indianapolis 500 today.
The car was driven by British racing veteran Dan Wheldon who beat a field of other drivers for the coveted Borg-Warner Trophy.
Justin, who last year co-starred in the Oscar-winning movie The Social Network, also tweeted a shout out to the car's driver: 'Congrats to Dan Wheldon, the WR racing team and everyone else who put in the hard work for this victory! Unreal!'
