DC/X17online.comBen Affleck's "The Town" topped last weekend's box office, and wife Jennifer Garner has been busy filming a remake of "Arthur" and has signed on to star opposite Jeremy Renner in "Better Living Through Chemistry," but life goes on as usual for their two daughters. Case in point: Garner was spotted taking her adorable 4-year-old Violet -- who sported sparkling red shoes and a pink tutu -- to dance class on Tuesday.

It's amazing -- and refreshing -- to see two A-listers like Ben and Jen managing to have such a relatively normal family life. Sure, they make a lot more money than most people, but for them, family really does seem to come first. Affleck gushed about his girls while promoting his new flick on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show."

"I am madly in love," he smiled. "I have the best family. I really have come right to the place that I was supposed to be at."

Of course, even sweet little girls in tutus can be sassy. Affleck explained to Ellen that he recently asked Violet to do something,

Katherine Heigl opens up about motherhood in InStyle . - Jenny Gage and Tom Betterton/InStyleIn March, Katherine Heigl announced that she was leaving "Grey's Anatomy" to focus on raising her 20-month-old adopted daughter Naleigh with her singer-songwriter husband Josh Kelley. Of course, while the 31-year-old actress may not be starring on the small screen anymore, she's not shying away from any big-screen roles. Her new movie, "Life As We Know It," which she not only stars in but executive produced, hits theaters on October 8. In the film, Heigl portrays one of two single adults who unexpectedly become caregivers to their goddaughter Sophie when the child's parents die in an accident.

"My experience as Holly in ["Life as We Know It"] was my experience as Katie in real life," shares Heigl in the October issue of InStyle. "There's this thing where, as a new mother, you're just constantly going, 'Am I doing this right? Am I handling this right? Am I playing with her enough? Should I be talking to her more?' You're just nervous, so you're

Nick Jonas will celebrate his birthday with fans while performing in the San Diego area tonight. - Anthony/PacificCoastNews.comNick Jonas turns 18 today, which means now he can vote in addition to all of the other adult-like things he's been doing for years such as recording albums, making movies, performing on Broadway and London's West End, starring in a TV series, and even speaking in front of Congress about diabetes!

While turning 18 is a milestone occasion, it looks like Nick will be having a relatively low-key celebration. He was spotted boarding the JoBros tour bus this morning, which was headed to San Diego. (The musical trio performs in Chula Vista, California, tonight.)

Fortunately, birthdays don't seem to be all that important to Nick. "You know, birthdays for me, I always feel like they're kind of ridiculous," he told MTV News at the "Camp Rock 2" premiere. "But it's fun. I'm excited."

Check out the cute interview with Nick and his brothers below!

Kourtney Kardashian, Scott Disick, and their son Mason get ready to board a yacht at the Manhattan Pier. - Swarbrick/Donnelly/INFphoto.comWhile Kourtney Kardashian's relationship with her baby daddy Scott Disick is far from perfect, the couple seems to have been happily spending a lot of quality time together in Scott's hometown of NYC. (OK, he actually hails from Long Island, New York, but probably knows more about the Big Apple than Kourt!)

Over the weekend, the duo and their son Mason were spotted hopping on a private yacht, but earlier in the day they had reportedly been scouting locations for a new outlet of the family's fashion boutique, Dash. Kourtney recently told Cupcake Mag that "New York exudes fashion. It is the place for everything and anything fashion in America, so it is the next natural place to open a Dash. I am hoping to make this dream come true -- as if I don't have enough going on already, especially being a new mom."

As for the negative buzz surrounding her relationship with Disick, the oldest Kardashian sister had this to say to Wonderwall at the Style 360 Beach Bunny Party on Saturday: "I'm really

Matthias Vriens-McGrath/GlamourIt's been a quite a week for Lea Michele. On Sunday, the "Glee" star rocked the red carpet at the Emmy Awards, where she was nominated for Outstanding Actress in a Comedy and was busy celebrating her 24th birthday. Now, the petite performer -- she's only 5'2" -- is gracing the cover of Glamour's October issue.

Despite her small size, the little girl with the big voice makes it clear that she loves food when asked how she stays in shape.

"I love being healthy," she notes. "I get a lot of sleep. [But] I'm a girl who eats. And I feel beautiful no matter how I look. I have my family to thank for that. I'll have a big Italian dinner, and I don't give a crap because it makes me happy."

Growing up in a big Italian/Jewish clan, meal time was pretty important to Lea -- as was the support she got from her family when it came to pursuing a career in entertainment.

Although she's only in her early 20s, the starlet got her start in

Whether she likes it or not, Nicole Richie has become the poster child for boho chic. Inspired by the flower child styles of the late 1960s, it's fairly easy to capture the earthy, free-spirited look, which is an eclectic mix of hippie, ethnic, and vintage elements. While the style has become synonymous with many other celebs such as the Olsen twins and Sienna Miller, nobody seems to rock it better than Richie. Even while pregnant, the former "Simple Life" star managed to incorporate Bohemian bits into her maternity wardrobe. She simply glowed in her vibrant flowing frocks and pretty headbands.

Now, the groovy fashions are being embraced by a new generation of stars who are attempting to put their spin on a fairly old trend. Let's see how they compare to Ms. Richie.

Although Miley Cyrus was born about 23 years after Woodstock, she definitely digs hippie chic. From maxi dresses to big boho bags to suede boots, she even has a habit of flashing peace signs at the paparazzi.

The Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato teamed up for Arthur Ashe Kids' Day. - Gary Gershoff/WireImage.comDo the Jonas Brothers ever take a break? On Saturday, the musical trio, along with Demi Lovato and David Archuleta, were the headliners at the 2010 Arthur Ashe Kids' Day in Queens, New York. The 15th annual event, which honors the memory of the late tennis champ/humanitarian Arthur Ashe, not only kicked off the U.S. Open, but benefitted the National Junior Tennis and Learning Network as well. Ashe founded the organization in 1969 along with Charlie Parasell and Sheridan Snyder in an effort to "develop the character of young people through tennis and education."

In addition to taking part in plenty of fun tennis-related activities, kids in attendance got to see exciting matches between professional tennis stars like Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. But the highlight of the day probably had to be the sold-out live concert, where the JoBros performed "L.A. Baby" for the screaming crowd, and Archuleta sang his new single, "Something 'Bout Love."
