Jaden Smith with dad Will Smith (Han Myung-Gu/WireImage)Parents do all sorts of things to incentivize their children -- bribes with candy, allowance for chores -- but in the case of Jaden Smith, he gets his independence when he's a bigger star than his dad.

Will Smith and his multi-talented son dropped by Ellen DeGeneres's talk show on Wednesday to promote their new sci-fi flick "After Earth," and Will took the chance to clear up some talk about Jaden flying the coop.

Turns out a misinterpreted quote was to blame for starting rumors that 14-year-old Jaden was seeking legal independence from Will and mom Jada Pinkett Smith.

"I think I made a joke in Tokyo," Will told Ellen of their father-son press tour. "My baby boy, he's never leaving me ever. No emancipation for the Smith kids."

Jaden elaborated, adding that he's got it pretty good at his dad's place.

Carey Mulligan and Leonardo DiCaprio (Warner Bros)Baz Luhrmann's "The Great Gatsby" may have made $51 million in the U.S. last weekend, but it wasn't so popular at the Cannes Film Festival.

At the morning press screening, the movie was met with silence when it ended. Many in attendance didn't stay until the end, leaving before the end credits rolled so they could get a seat at the press conference or perform other personal duties after two hours and 20 minutes.

The hope was that the black tie audience in the Palais later on Wednesday would embrace "Gatsby." Alas, the reaction at the end of that screening — which followed the introduction of the all-star jury, a clip reel saluting Steven Spielberg, and an opening speech given in French by Audrey Tatou — was not much better. "Muted response" is how the polite applause might be described. Indifference would be another. To be quite honest, "Gatsby" received one of the milder receptions in the history of Cannes opening

InstagramPractice makes perfect. Jessica Alba's really taken these words to heart as she works on her Street Fighter moves.

The actress has been posting Hadouken photos to her Instagram account since early April.

Inspired by Japanese schoolgirls, the meme features people posing for photos as if they were carrying out special-effect attacks on opponents in a video game.

Jess's most successful effort was posted April 13 and features the Honest entrepreneur engaged in a virtual battle with her husband, Cash Warren.

Mother’s Day is supposed to be a lovely way to honor the moms we love, but LeAnn Rimes and Brandi Glanville somehow managed to ruin even that special day! The country star is now a stepmother to Mason and Jake, Brandi’s sons with her ex (and LeAnn’s current hubby) Eddie Cibrian and on Sunday, the singer extended an olive branch by sending the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star a bouquet of flowers.

And while the flowers may have been a kind gesture, it quickly lead to yet another vicious Twitter feud between the two blondes! Brandi wrote on Monday, “I thanked @leannrimes on twitter4my flowers. Our relationship is that we still don’t even say hi at baseball. I don’t have her number – that’s it.” Rimes quickly responded with her own tweet: “This was actually the first acknowledgement of my gesture I was made aware of. I didn't see anything else sent to me. It wasn't for the 'thank you.' It was to just simply say Happy Mother's Day. ” But the war of words didn't end there.

Check out the vid to see what else LeAnn had to say about the flower diss!

If residents of the Hollywood Hills feel things are getting a little serious in the neighborhood, they’ll be happy to know some comic relief just moved in.

Anna Farris and Chris Pratt. (Lester Cohen/WireImage) Married actors Anna Faris and Chris Pratt (you’ll recognize her as the ditzy blonde in movies like “Scary Movie” and “Take Me Home Tonight” and him as star of NBC sitcom “Parks and Recreation”) just dropped $3.3 million on a new pad, according to real estate website Zillow.

And they must have really wanted the place. The home was initially listed for $2.975 million back in January, which means the couple paid $325,000 over the asking price.

According to the listing, the four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath Mediterranean-style home totals 4,700 square feet and sits on more than a half acre of land in the picturesque Nichols Canyon, near Sunset Boulevard.

When Faris, 36, and her hubby, 33-year-old Pratt, aren’t cracking each other up, they’ll probably be getting their exercise. The gated property includes an outdoor gym perched above a regulation tennis court.

Christy Turlington (Daniel Jackson)These days, anybody who walks down a runway seems to be labeled a supermodel. But Christy Turlington has the distinction of being one of the original catwalkers to first earn the label – and she has the juicy stories to prove it.

At 44, Turlington is more focused on family and her charity, Every Mother Counts, than she is modeling, which she has now been doing now for 30 years. But when she does strike a pose -- as she does in the June issue of Harper's Bazaar – she enjoys being in front of the camera.

Hottie alert! Chris Evans was spotted on the set of "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" on Tuesday in Washington, D.C., showing off his seriously buff bod. The 31-year-old Hollywood hunk has clearly embraced the superhero role ― he's looking bulkier and better than ever.

But he did admit that getting those mighty muscles wasn't so easy. The actor told Pop Sugar that his grueling training schedule for "Captain America: The First Avenger" back in 2011 was pretty brutal. "I'd walk out and I'd be like, 'I need to vomit. I hate this trainer. I hate this movie. I want to go to sleep for a week.' It was just relentless. I've got a fast metabolism and I lose weight very quickly, so for me to get big, it was just eat a lot."

He might have hated it, but we are very appreciative of the results!

Kanye West is having a tough week. Actually, more like a blunder-filled one.

The 35-year-old made headlines last Friday when he slammed his head into a street sign with baby mama Kim Kardashian (and then got really mad at the paparazzi for causing the clunk), documented in the video now seen 'round the world.

So far, so good ... (Splash News)

Whoops! (Splash News)

Then on Tuesday, the father-to-be's Lamborghini Aventador (worth a reported $750,000) was hit by a closing gate outside his baby mama Kim Kardashian's house in Beverly Hills. But this time West (who owns a whole collection of fancy cars) really can blame someone else: The guy who was behind the wheel of the car – reportedly returning it from a service appointment – took a few seconds too long to drive it through the electric gate after it opened, and it ended up shutting right on the pricey set of wheels. Yikes!
