Three-time Olympian Cat Osterman came out of retirement to play softball for Team USA this summer in Tokyo. “I was working at the University of Texas as a pitching coach, but I knew I could still throw,” the 38-year-old athlete tells Us. “So I decided, well, if I think I can do it, I should probably go ahead and give it a try!” Q: How did your friends and family react to you unretiring? My husband and stepdaughter were so supportive. He knows that I only have a short window to make sure I’m at the top of my game, so sometimes that means dinner is fast food! And a lot of my friends were elite athletes, so they understand what I’m going through. Q: What’s it like being an…

Jenni “JWoww” Farley got engaged to Zack Clayton in February, but the Jersey Shore: Family Vacation star tells Us that she isn’t planning to have kids with the wrestler, 26. “I think I’m done,” confesses Farley, 35, who shares Meilani, 7, and Greyson, 5, with ex Roger Mathews. “I want to borrow Deena [Cortese’s] baby. I want all the newborns. I hope Nicole [“Snooki” Polizzi] has another too.” Farley says that Polizzi’s daughter, Giovanna, 6, is friends with Meilani — and she wouldn’t be surprised if the girls end up following in their footsteps. “[They] love being on TV,” explains Farley, adding that Meilani is a natural in front of the camera. “As a parent, you want your kids to be better than you and different than you and prosper,”…

CANDACE CAMERON BURE “[My older son] Lev is named after my husband’s grandfather. It means heart in Hebrew and is the direct translation of lion in Russian.” HILARIA BALDWIN “Eduardo was our boy name for [our daughter] Carmen. I had a friend when I was younger named Eduardo, and he was just such an incredible person.” WHITNEY PORT “[My son] is named after a Paul Simon song, ‘The Obvious Child.’ There’s a lyric that says, ‘Had a little boy going to call him Sonny.’ It’s just the cutest name.” LALA KENT “I was in the Bahamas and walked past a yacht called the Ocean Alexander. I was like, ‘The name Ocean is fantastic.’ [I] knew whether it was a boy or a girl, that was the name.”…

Nobody does everyman like Matt Damon. Now, the actor submerges himself in a genuinely affecting adult drama. He’s Bill, a straight-shooting oil rigger who uproots from Oklahoma to a tiny port city in France to exonerate his imprisoned daughter (Abigail Breslin) on a murder charge. (Insert obvious Amanda Knox comparison here.) Amid frustrations with the cultural differences and language barriers — Americans don’t exactly come off like heroes — he forms a friendship with a local actress (Camille Cottin) and her little girl. This tender dynamic is the beating heart of the story: A scene in which the three slow dance together is all shades of lovely. And to Damon’s credit, he never flashes his smile and shakes off Bill’s essence. Alas, the “A” plot threatens to drag down this…

I have to elevate myself to his…

Well that’s one way to embrace another year around the sun! Jennifer Lopez, who turned 52 on July 24, celebrated her birthday (and her super-toned bikini body) on a $130 million yacht in St.-Tropez surrounded by loved ones, including boyfriend Ben Affleck, 48. “Jen and Ben were packing on the PDA,” an insider tells Us, adding that the couple couldn’t keep their hands off each other. In fact, they even made things Instagram official, posting a steamy kissing shot on Lopez’s social media page. “They’re in a great place, and wanted to share their love with the world,” the insider explains. “Jen called it her best birthday yet.” A source previously told Us that Lopez and Affleck, who reunited in April, are thrilled to be back together. “They’re aware some…

Even though Melissa Gorga’s marital issues with husband Joe played out on the recent season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, she never expected it to get back to their daughter, Antonia, 14. “It broke my heart,” says Melissa, 42. “She would be like, ‘Why are [social media users] saying you’re getting a divorce? Why are they saying you’re fighting? What is this?’” she continues. “I had to explain to her, ‘Antonia, we’re on reality TV. It’s the littlest thing, and they make it a big thing. So everything is not what it seems.’” Here the Bravo personality, who’s also mom to Gino, 13, and Joey, 11, tells Us more. How did your conversation with Antonia go? She’s not a child.

Filming between Norway and the North Pole is no easy task! Jack O’Connell, who leads AMC+’s The North Water, stars as Patrick Sumner, an army surgeon turned ship doctor who’s forced to face his dark past while on a whaling expedition to the Arctic. Here, O’Connell details his journey — including what it was like shooting a drama series in the furthest point north, ever. Q: How would you describe the atmosphere? We were… shooting in extreme conditions. It was tough, arduous and very uncomfortable at times. [However,] our reward for that was we were in these phenomenal settings. There were times that we were really treated to once-in-a-lifetime experiences, like polar bears strolling around the ship trying to figure out ways to get on board. Q: Sumner butts heads…

Jennifer who? Despite being in St.-Tropez at the same time as his ex Jennifer Lopez during her birthday celebration, Alex Rodriguez, 46, didn’t seem to have a care in the world as he hung out nearby on his own megayacht surrounded by a bevy of bikini-clad women. “A-Rod is living his best single life,” a source tells Us. “Jen and Alex had always intended to go to the French Riviera for her birthday this year, and neither of them changed their plans.” While Rodriguez had no idea Lopez would be so close by with current beau Ben Affleck, the source insists the former MLB player wasn’t fazed. “He was distracted with his own guests,” notes the source. “He is really enjoying being a bachelor.”…
