Is something going on with Anna Faris?

She looks emphatically GLOWING!

Oh yeah, that's right, she's preggers - that's why she looks so good!

Her and hubby Chris Pratt were just a-walking down the street singing do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do.

That baby bump is looking good AND fine.

Anna Kournikova stopped by the Grove in El Lay yesterday to get in some much deserved table tennis time!

Ha! We're sure she's playing it ironically, right??

Either way, gurl looks incredible, even in those casual clothes! Hope being a trainer on Biggest Loser is going well!

Check out the rest of the pics, guys!

Hi AJN,

Detox programs are not for the faint of heart, and it can be tough to separate the borderline irresponsible programs from the holistically challenging. They take a lot out of you physically and emotionally, so you have to be prepared. I did a 27-day detox, and the first two weeks were extremely rough and almost cost me friends and co-workers — I was such a mopey so and so. I followed Dr. Joshi’s holistic detox program. This was years ago and now there are parts I really question as I do not believe in eliminating natural food from your diet — moderation is key.

I see an amazing acupuncturist and we have discussed detox programs and cleanses and she is not for it. She spends a lot of time with clients correcting issues that arise from the programs. You can wipe out a lot of friendly bacteria and actually put your body under a lot of strain while detoxing, and it monkeys with your digestion long after the detox is over. The body itself is a pretty awesome detox weapon. Nothing really beats your kidneys and liver.

What I do now when I feel the urge to detox (and start having elaborate juice cleanse fantasies) is eat super clean. Nothing out of a box, nothing refined — only fresh produce, fruit, and super lean proteins. No refined sugar, red meat, alcohol, and as little caffeine as possible. If you drink coffee, you may need to subsitute green tea to reduce the caffeine withdrawal headaches. I like to think of it as a caveman detox. Yoga also has many detox properties with moves designed to literally squeeze toxins out of your organs.

If you are dead set on doing a detox program, I would recommend finding an ayurvedic center, holistic natural food store, or acupuncturist in your area who could guide you through the process and help you find the detox that would address your specific concerns. I do not suggest going rogue on this, and if you start a program and it is not working for you or is making you feel ill do not feel bad about stopping. There are no awards or parades for finishing a detox, so listen to your body — It is usually right about what it needs and what does not work for it.

For those of you who haven't seen Pascal Laugier's French horror film Martyrs, don't see it under any circumstances unless you're not partial to sleeping at night.

For those of you who HAVE seen the film, you know there's no way that the American remake will come close to it…but even despite that, it will still be very disturbing.

Twilight producers have teamed up with The Last Exorcism director Daniel Stamm to introduce this upsetting horror film to America.

The film tells the story of Lucie and Anna, two orphans who develop a strong bond with each other, until one of them seeks revenge on a family who may or may not have abused her as a child. We won't even tell you what happens from there, because it's too damn disturbing!

Here's what director Daniel Stamm had to say about the movie:

"Martyrs is very nihilistic. The American approach [that I'm looking at] would go through all that darkness but then give a glimmer of hope. You don't have to shoot yourself when it's over."

Stamm also dismissed rumors that Kristen Stewart would star in the remake.

Hmm…could have been inneresting to see K-Stew take on this role. Then again, her involvement might encourage kids to find a way to see this movie, and if it's anything like the original, they definitely should NOT.

Do U think U could handle the Martyrs remake? How about the highly disturbing original?
