Jessica Simpson told the ladies of “The View” that while she doesn′t “really know about wedding bells” with boyfriend Tony Romo, she is still smitten with him.

The singer, 27, performed “Come On Over,” a single from her upcoming country album, and talked with the hosts about her relationship with Romo, 28, the quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys.

“I still love him, and I’m still with him, so that’s a good sign,” the singer, 27, told Barbara Walters when the host asked about the possibility of marriage. Simpson, who has been dating Romo for almost eight months, was previously married to singer Nick Lachey.

As for her younger sister Ashlee, who is expecting a child with husband Pete Wentz, Simpson said “she sent me a picture of her belly. She’s popping, it’s so cute!”

The hot leather jacket that Angelina Jolie wears in her new movie Wanted is up for grabs. The sexy wardrobe piece is up for bidding today at CharityFolks.com.

The jacket has a diagonal zipper across the front with tassels on the zipper pulls. It is valued at $1,000 but it is expected to fetch about $3,000. That’s cheap!

Proceeds will go to Plan!t Now, an organziation created by Angelina′s costar in Wanted, Morgan Freeman. The charity assists families and communities prepare for natural disasters.

Off course the jacket is a size extra small, so hopefully the winner is either tiny or just a collector — but I think that jacket is just too sexy to sit on a mannequin or shelf.

Paul and Rosalie Walken immigrated to America as adults. They met in New York, married and had three children: Ken, Glenn and Ronald (who later changed his name to Christopher). Ronnie was born on the opening night of Oklahoma! on March 31, 1943. The family resided in Queens and Paul owned and ran a bakery. When the boys were tots, Rosalie would bring them to television show auditions and photography shoots. She belonged to an organization called The Stage Mother’s Society and was very involved with her sons’ young careers. By the early 1950s, all three boys were enrolled in tap dancing classes and were performing regularly on television shows such as Ernie Kovacs, Philco TV Playhouse and The Colgate Comedy Hour. Ronnie appeared on a television series called The Wonderful John Acton, playing the part of Kevin Acton. As the boys got older, they would take the subway by themselves to Manhattan to work in television and theatre. Ronnie attended PCS (Professional Children’s School) and was friends with the world-renowned composer, Marvin Hamlisch, Brandon de Wilde, and Gypsy Rose Lee’s son, Eric. In their free time, Ken, Glenn and Ronnie would help their father out in the bakery.

Ronnie made his off-Broadway debut at age fifteen in Archibald MacLeish’s J.B. and around that time, he took a brief stint acting as a lion tamer’s son in a circus. Ronnie’s job was to bring out an old, extremely docile lion and “tame” him. Ronnie graduated from PCS and attended Hofstra University for about one year. In the spring following his first year at college, Ronnie’s tap instructor, Danny Daniels cast him and his brother, Glenn in the off Broadway musical he was directing and choreographing; Best Foot Forward. Ronnie suggested that Daniels also audition young girl he was taking acting lessons with. That girl was Liza Minelli and she got the part. Over the next two and a half years, Ronnie worked mostly in musical theater. He worked in a touring production of West Side Story and danced opposite Georgianne Thon.

The two were married later in 1969. At age 22, Ronnie was renamed Christopher by Monique Van Vooren, a singer he was working with. He decided to keep it and was billed as Christopher for the first time when he performed in the1965 musical Baker Street in which he danced next to Tommy Tune. Later he came to do numerous dramatic roles, his first being The Lion In Winter, in which he played the part of King Phillip. This was his first speaking (not singing) role and he has noted that he wrestled with extreme stage fright, nervous shakes and broken concentration. Christopher nearly got fired, but begged the show’s producer to give him a chance. He was given three days to find a solution to these dilemmas. Somehow, someway, he overcame his fears and actually went on to win the Clarence Derwent Award for that performance. He was then cast for many other Shakespearian roles and more dramatic stage roles in plays such as The Unknown Soldier. In 1966, he won the Theatre World Award for his performance in the revival of Tennessee Williams’ The Rose Tattoo.

At about age 25, Walken began his film career, with small roles in the films Me And My Brother, the Sidney Lumet-directed The Anderson Tapes, and his first starring role in The Happiness Cage. Christopher then had a small but memorable role in Woody Allen’s classic Annie Hall, in which he played Annie’s brother, Duane. Shortly after that, Christopher was cast as Nick in Michael Cimino’s The Deer Hunter, for which he won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor and the New York Film Critic’s Circle Award. Soon after, he appeared in Cimino’s critically trashed follow-up picture, Heaven’s Gate with Kris Kristofferson. It was shortly after returning to New York after filming Heaven’s Gate that Christopher was assaulted on the street on which he and Georgianne lived. He had asked two men on the street to turn down their music. The men, in turn, attacked him and broke his nose. But, Walken’s career carried on without a break. He continued to get roles in films such as the western with Margot Kidder, Shoot The Sun Down and the last MGM musical movie, Pennies From Heaven with Steve Martin and choreography by Danny Daniels, Walken’s former tap teacher. Christopher received rave reviews from critics regarding his dancing scene in Pennies From Heaven- and compliments from toe-tapping legends Fred Astaire and Gene Kelley.

A gregarious actor with a smile that lights up the screen, Cuba Gooding Jr experienced the highs and lows of show business growing up as the son of his famous singer father. As he explained to the LOS ANGELES TIMES (January 5, 1997): “We lived in a big house and had chauffeurs, we’d go backstage at the concerts and then in the fifth grade . . . bang! Rock bottom.” When his parents divorced, he moved with his mother, brother and sister out of the limelight and began facing financial hardships, which included stretches of being evicted and living in a car, as well as time on the welfare rolls. While the family was staying in a cheap motel in suburban Orange County, Gooding befriended future personal assistant Shawn Suttles and production company partner Derek Broes, and the three perfected their breakdancing moves, christening themselves the Majestic Vision Breakdancers. Their routine was “phat” enough to get them into the breakdancing extravaganza that was part of the closing ceremonies at the 1984 Olympic Games, and the gig landed Gooding an agent, opening the door a crack to the world he had known as a child.
Gooding landed his first professional role as a thug in an episode of NBC’s “Hill Street Blues″, then stole some hubcaps when guesting on “Jake and the Fatman” (CBS). Other series appearances (i.e., “The Bronx Zoo” and “Amen”, both NBC) and commercials followed before he made his feature acting debut as Boy Getting Haircut in “Coming to America” (1988). His breakthrough came with a starring role in John Singleton’s celebrated directorial debut, “Boyz N the Hood” (1991). Playing the troubled Tre Styles, who finds the strength to rise above the self-destructive violence of the ghetto, Gooding sensitively conveyed the pressures and contradictions attendant upon young black men growing up in South Central Los Angeles. He was on top of the world, a media darling, and then the offers started to come in. As he told Entertainment Weekly in February 1997: “The scripts I got were Boyz N the Hood 2, 3, Boyz N the Hood Goes to Heaven, Boyz N the Hood Goes to the Laundromat, Boyz at the Supermarket. ‘Can I help ya? Yes′m. I’ll take two loafs of bread, cuz.’ I wasn’t into it.” After landing in the high-powered supporting cast of the blockbuster court-martial drama “A Few Good Men” (1992), Gooding stumbled as the star of that year’s “Rocky″ wannabe “Gladiator” (1992) and as the mute sidekick of Paul Hogan in “Lightning Jack” (1994, in a role that purportedly was intended for a dog). Having managed to stand out in “Judgment Night” (1993) as part of the youthful ensemble forced to battle for their lives after witnessing a crime in Chicago’s inner-city, he kept his career on life-support with small roles in “Losing Isaiah” and “Outbreak” (1995) as well as one of the titular “The Tuskegee Airmen” (HBO, 1995). When Damon Wayans left the producers of “Jerry Maguire” (1996) scrambling for a last-minute replacement for the role of Rod Tidwell, Gooding stepped into the breach and delivered what Owen Gleiberman in Entertainment Weekly called a “ferocious star-making performance.” As the strutting but ultimately principled pro-football player, he provided a highly sympathetic, multi-faceted portrayal of an egomaniacal but insecure athlete. The part earned him a Best Supporting Actor Oscar, and cries of “Show me the money!” his catchphrase to the titular agent played by Tom Cruise, greeted him wherever he went.

Gooding had finally delivered on the promise of “Boyz”, and though good supporting roles as Greg Kinnear’s gay buddy in “As Good As It Gets″ (1997) and as Robin Williams′ tour guide in “What Dreams May Come” (1998) followed, it was sobering to learn that Columbia, which had released “Boyz”, “Jerry Maguire” and “As Good As it Gets″, still considered Martin Lawrence more bankable when it came to casting “Blue Streak” (1999). To raise his profile farther, he appeared in a series of Pepsi One commercials showcasing his high energy and neon-bright smile. Some critics faulted him for doing them, but the pesky ads certainly increased his exposure, helping with that all-important name recognition that powers Hollywood clout. In his first leading role since his Oscar win, Gooding broke out of the rut of outgoing, flamboyant characters with a much more cerebral turn as an ambitious psychiatrist trying to draw out Anthony Hopkins′ psychotic killer (equal parts Hannibal Lecter and Lear). Thrilled by the color-blind casting, he earned positive reviews, though the thriller itself left little else to recommend it. That year he also portrayed a small-town guy trying to prevent a chemical weapon from detonating in “Chill Factor” and took his first crack at producing with “A Murder of Crows″, an independent feature broadcast on Cinemax. A further sign of his growing clout came when he was cast opposite Robert De Niro in “Men of Honor” (2000), the biopic of the US Navy′s first black salvage-and-retrieval expert.

Chris Klein, Posessing the sort of apple-cheeked, translucent-skinned All-American wholesomeness that has made him a natural for the pretty boy jock roles which began his career, Chris Klein started a minor sensation after appearing in only two films. The actor, who is a testament to both good PR and the American appetite for all that is young, athletic, and bearing no discernible acne scars, was born in Chicago on March 14, 1979. After spending the first thirteen years of his life there, he moved with his family to Nebraska. It was while he was in high school that Klein was discovered by director Alexander Payne, who was busy casting his upcoming film, Election (1999). Klein won the role of Paul Metzler in Payne’s film, which opened to enthusiastic reviews. As Paul, Klein played the dim but sweet football player persuaded by Matthew Broderick’s Jim McAllister to run against the unopposed Tracy Flick (Reese Witherspoon) in the school’s student council election. Klein played a similar character in his next film, the 1999 summer smash American Pie. As Chris “Oz” Ostreicher, Klein was again seen as a sweetly dim high school jock, who, rather than wanting to win an election, channeled his energies toward losing his virginity. The success of the film was great enough to lead Klein to drop out of Texas Christian University (where he had been a freshman) to follow an acting career that had certainly gotten off to a serendipitous beginning.
