“I was like, ‘This is going to be the coolest thing one day when I have kids.’ . . . Then I realized: I die.” On why her son, Aleph, 5, hasn’t seen her turn in the Star Wars prequels, NATALIE PORTMAN “There’s a pile of mail that belongs to the rest of the building, and then there’s a pile just for our house of diapers and butt cream.” On apartment living with expectant wife Hilaria, daughter Carmen, 3, and son Rafael, 14 months, ALEC BALDWIN “When he refills your toilet paper supply.” On her idea of “real love,” GINA RODRIGUEZ “Honey, these hips are a size 14, and they are not going anywhere.” On rumors she lost half her weight, ASHLEY GRAHAM “Seriously, what’s the difference between being in love and being kidnapped?” WHITNEY…

For Jussie Smollett, dueting with Mariah Carey on Empire was like a sweet, sweet fantasy. “It was a dream come true!” the actor, 33, says.On season 3 of the hiphop soap opera (Fox, September 21, 9 p.m.), Carey’s character, Kitty — like the singer, also amegastar — counsels Jamal about his fractured family. (Her episode airs October 5. Other guest stars include Taye Diggs, Romeo Miller and French Montana.) Smollett takes Us inside the drama. How is Jamal recovering from being shot last season? He’s having a much easier time healing physically than emotionally. He’s dealing with PTSD. Being on stage with the flashing lights, the crowds yelling his name, sends him into panic attacks, so he can’t perform. Tell Us about the day Mariah filmed her appearance! She was…

Time is standing still at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. The drama’s 13th season reverses a trend and picks up right where it left off — “a train already doing 70 miles per hour!” says star Jason George. After Karev (Justin Chambers) gave DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti) a beatdown upon finding him with drunk Jo (Camilla Luddington), “there’s a ripple effect across the entire hospital,” Luddington tells Us. “People take sides.” She also hints that Jo’s just-revealed abusive ex may find her: “Grey’s characters seem to have a hard time escaping their past.” As for that brewing love triangle with Maggie (Kelly McCreary), Riggs (Martin Henderson) and Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) can’t even get their own romance in gear — despite Riggs’ best efforts. “Already, in the first few episodes,” Henderson…

Chew on this: Sorghum — an ancient African grain — is loaded with filling fiber and protein (3 and 6 grams per quarter-cup, 160-calorie serving, respectively). The combination “is nice for satiety,” says L.A.-based dietitian Sharon Palmer. “You don’t feel so hungry when you eat this food.” The Plant-Powered for Life author suggests replacing rice with the gluten-free carb or popping it (like Jessica Seinfeld does) for a snack. Another option: this recipe from eatery Le Pain Quotidien, frequented by Jessica Alba and ReeseWitherspoon. BODY BUZZ INGREDIENTS 11/4 cups organic corn (thawed if frozen) 1 cup grape tomatoes, quartered 1/4 cup chopped cilantro 1 jalapeño, diced ¹/³ cup thinly sliced red onion 3 tbsp, plus 1/2 cup fresh lime juice 1 tbsp, plus 1/2 cup olive oil Sea salt to…

Jackson tries to talk AHS and music “I literally can’t say anything.” Cheyenne Jackson, 41, upholds the American Horror Story vow of silence when talking to Us. (Sigh.) He had a juicy part to keep quiet last season: Lady Gaga married his character and had him killed! In his second turn on the FX anthology (September 14, 10 p.m.), his only confidant is entrepreneur husband Jason Landau, 39. “That’s it!” the actor says. “Not my agents, not even my parents know.” SINGING OUT Jackson can talk about his new album of standards, Renaissance. Growing up in “very, very rural” Idaho, he says, he was shy about loving “superold-fashioned” artists like Billie Holiday. “It took me 40 years to really find what I love to do the most.” WEDNESDAY 9/14 Blindspot…

Trina is the Diamond Princess, but she also loves her pearly whites. “I’m a dental-floss freak,” the rapper, born Katrina Laverne Taylor, reveals. “I hate the dentist, so I take care of my teeth.” The single Miami native, whose new EscapeX app dropped in August, cleans out her quilted Chanel satchel for Us. TOTAL SUCKER “I like the Blow Pop because it’s a candy, and then it’s gum. I have one when I’m about to go to my show. It makes my tongue red, so when I’m performing, you just see red, and I just love that.” TALENT SCOUT “At shows, people always hand me CDs or little USBs. Someone will say, ‘Hey! I’m an artist. Listen to my music.’ I usually have a lot of them and once…

Onscreen lovers Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander took their roles in The Light Between Oceans to heart. “We met on that job,” the Irish-German actor told Good Morning America of filming the romance together in 2014. “We’ve been seeing each other ever since.” Fassbender, 39, is regularly struck by the 27-year-old Oscar winner’s uncanny talent. “She’s such a fierce performer,” added the X-Men: Apocalypse star. “She’s so brave.” TOM&RITA He’s With the Band At wife RitaWilson’s concerts, Tom Hanks has no shame. “I’m the biggest groupie,” the Sully actor, 60, tells Us of the “Forgiving Me Forgiving You” singer. “I start the riots. I instigate the fistfights demanding more when she goes off stage. I hold the cigarette lighters up, dozens at a time, and scream, ‘More Rita! More Rita!’…

Hide your golf clubs, Gavin Rossdale. Elin Nordegren (ex-wife of TigerWoods) and the rocker (ex-husband of Gwen Stefani) went on a first date in L.A. August 27, a source tells Us. Set up by friends, the Florida-based mom of two, 36 and the dad of three, 50, are planning round 2. “Elin flies to L.A. a lot,” says the source. “They want to make it work.”…

SoleilMoon Frye gets a big hand from her little helpers. “I feel blessed that I have the older kids to help with the younger ones,” says the mom of Poet, 11, Jagger, 8, Lyric, 2, and Story, 4 months (with TV and film producer husband Jason Goldberg). “The girls make their beds, keep their rooms clean and change diapers.” The 40-yearold cofounder of children’s toy and craft company Seedling shares more parenting strategies with Us. Q: How do you split your attention? I love taking the kids on individual dates. They get to pick someplace special they want to go to, and we get to talk and just have quality time. Q: Do you and your husband share similar parenting styles? He very much believes in letting kids make their…

Time to slow down: Selena Gomez announced August 30 she’s canceling her Revival tour to deal with lupus-related anxiety, panic attacks and depression. “I want to . . . focus on maintaining my health,” the singer, 24, diagnosed with the chronic autoimmune disease in 2012, explained.

Lupus Foundation of America CEO Sandra Raymond appreciates Gomez’s candor: “Selena is highlighting hidden challenges people with lupus face.”…

1. As a kid, my nickname was “Boomer.” I would bang my head on my crib. My sister said I was “booming.” 2. Sometimes I eat junk food in the middle of the night and have no recollection — until I see the wrappers by my bed. 3. I hate rats. I hope this doesn't inspire any practical jokes. 4. My fantasy job is tight end for the New Orleans Saints. 5. I like packing. I like my suitcase to be very organized. 6. I love gadgets — anything electronic. 7. My older sister, Suzanne, is amazing. She’s a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army. 8. I love to cook — New Orleans food and BBQ. 9. I fell asleep on a treadmill once for a split second. I woke…

They found love in a once-hopeless place! Despite her unwillingness to commit to Drake during seven years of off-on dating, Rihanna now calls the rapper her boyfriend, sources tell Us. The 29-year-old Canadian’s public declarations — he took out a billboard congratulating her on her MTV VMAs accolade and told the crowd August 28 he’d been in love with her since he was 22 — won over the Barbadian, 28. “He was always too nice for her, but she softened when she saw how much he pursued her,” says a Rihanna source. “Plus, he’s really beefed up. She says he looks hotter than ever!” The couple took their romance on the road, hitting her NYC afterparty August 28 and his Miami tour stop August 30. There, they treated concertgoers to…

“BITE SIZED” JOWhat is the carb count in a tarantula? A little L.A. joke there . . . I actually caught a tarantula the other day! NN Did you put it in your mouth, Jerry? JO I didn’t even touch it. But this is someone’s mouth. Shows how powerful [cocreator] Ryan Murphy is. NNWhen he called me [for Queens], I didn’t even know what I was saying yes to. “LULLABY” JO It’s not enough that that s‑‑t’s a scary mobile. Then Ryan Murphy’s gotta put a hand in that thing. NN I thought it was a hint that Lady Gaga was going to have the devil’s baby. A very fashionable baby, but the devil’s baby. JO These devil children are loosely based on my own children. Ryan Murphy told me…

Everyone knows what happened to US Airways Flight 1549 on that winter day in New York City, and yet watching it all transpire on the big screen is still a heart-stopping wonder. Too bad the rest of this film is grounded in mediocrity. Sully is Captain Chesley Sullenberger (Tom Hanks, forever first-class), the pilot who, after birds struck both engines of his airplane, landed in the Hudson River. All 155 people aboard survived. The entire ordeal lasted just 208 seconds, though. Director Clint Eastwood must fill 96 minutes, and he does it by dwelling on the dark side. Sully is haunted by nightmares, is aloof to well-wishers and must defend his actions to officials. Even if there’s truth to this aftermath, it plays like trumped-up drama. (Recap: Everyone lived.) The…
