    The cause is one that's close to her heart. "I lost my grandmother to breast cancer and at one stage I had five friends all under40, all mothers and all with breast cancer," Hurley revealed. "I'm happy to tell you that all those five ladies survived, and the reason they did is because they found their own lumps through self-detection and they went to their doctor.

"But the adoption took two years, and there were times I felt discouraged, times when I got close to adopting a baby and it fell through. But I knew the right baby would

I can’t get away with what I used to," the actor says of his regimen. - James FisherHugh Jackman's ability to transform himself into tip-top shape for a role is about as impressive as his list of "X-Men" blockbusters.

    "People say it's addictive, but I'm like, 'not so much,'" he says in the magazine's October issue. "If I weren't getting paid or didn't have a character like 'Wolverine' to maintain, I would just be a tall, lean, fit guy."

  • Barry Manilow: Indie Rocker?

    Music icon Barry Manilow may be 68, but he doesn't seem at all familiar with the word "retirement." The singer/songwriter currently has a running gig in Las Vegas, just released a new album, recently launched his own wine label, and is just as comfortable updating fans on Facebook as he is playing tunes on the piano for them. He's also begun lending his voice to something other than singing, working to raise awareness of a chronic heart disease called atrial fibrillation, which he was diagnosed with 15 years ago. The "Copa Cabana" crooner talked to omg! to share his thoughts on everything from "American Idol" to Twitter to how he's become an unlikely indie rocker.

  • Mark Ruffalo the ‘Accidental Environmentalist’

    Getty ImagesActor Mark Ruffalo isn't about to let his fame go to waste.

    "I have a voice that just happens to go farther than some people's," he says, "and so I have a responsibility to use that to talk about the things that I think are important."

    One of those things is climate change. But it wasn't always. "The Kids Are All Right" star admits to being "an accidental environmentalist." Sure, he'd always thought of himself as environmentally conscious, but he used to contribute to causes simply by writing checks. Then something changed for the 43-year-old, who lives on an Upstate New York farm with his wife and three children.

    "I saw this mass industrialization of Upstate New York and Pennsylvania for hydraulic fracturing [a process known as"fracking," which breaks apart rock to release natural gas]. And that sort of opened my eyes," he says.

    Now Ruffalo has joined other celebs including Adrian Grenier, Orlando Bloom, Serena Williams, and Kyra Sedgwick to support the non-profit Global Green USA's
