Jen Aniston's Longtime Friend: "She'll Be An Adoring Mom!"

She?s in love and longing for a child, and when Jennifer Aniston?s baby dreams finally come true, the actress? parenting skills will be top-notch, her close pal tells In Touch. ?She?ll be an adoring mom,? Jennifer?s producing partner and confidant of more than 20 years, Kristin Hahn, gushed at the Lifetime and Sony Pictures Television premiere of Five in New York. ?She?s very big on boundaries with kids, and respect. She would have boundaries, but the adoration would be big!?

And Jen can rest easy, because Kristin gives the star?s man, Justin Theroux, her coveted seal of approval. ?I like him, very, very much!? she exclaimed. ?I love seeing her happy.?

As In Touch has reported, Jennifer and Justin are already trying to conceive and planning a beach wedding. Kristin agrees that an oceanside ceremony would be perfect for the couple?s nuptials. ?She loves the sun and moisture and heat. That?s her element!? she says. ?And she looks great in a bikini!?

Emma Watson, 'Perks' Co-Stars Do 'New Class' Boogie In Exclusive First Look

'I was waiting for this story, for this script, for this moment, for these people to do it with me,' Watson says of 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower.'

The post-"Harry Potter" education of Emma Watson began, in a way, at Brown University. Searching for her first film after completing the boy-wizard franchise, the Ivy League actress found some unlikely career advisors in the form of her fellow college students, who told her that she simply had to sign up for "The Perks of Being a Wallflower," an adaptation of Stephen Chbosky's seminal novel.

"Honestly, I had never read the book before, but a lot of my friends at Brown were hugely into it, and when I told them I had this script, they were crazy excited," Watson told MTV News.

And just that like, through the pop-culture schooling of her peers, she'd found a flick to carry her away from Hogwarts and toward a Hollywood second act. It's fitting, then, that with "Perks" on her résumé, we've selected Watson as a member of MTV News' New Class — actors and actresses about to graduate toward greatness. The 21-year-old finds herself in good company on the movie, whose cast contains so many soon-to-break-big talents that we selected a bunch of her co-stars as her New Class cohorts.

We've dubbed Watson "Most Likely to Win an Oscar." Nina Dobrev ("The Vampire Diaries") is our Next Style Icon. Logan Lerman ("Percy Jackson & the Olympians" and the upcoming "Three Musketeers") is Most Likely to Make You Swoon, and Ezra Miller (Sundance eye-opener "Another Happy Day" and Cannes selectee "We Need to Talk About Kevin") is Most Likely to Win an Independent Spirit Award. Together they're bringing a beloved teen novel to the screen. And when we visited the film's Pittsburgh set earlier this year, all four of them were well aware of the expectations surrounding the project and professed themselves lucky to be involved.

"I feel incredible about it. I feel like I've been waiting for 'Perks,' " Watson said. "I was waiting for this story, for this script, for this moment, for these people to do it with me. I'm so glad I didn't do anything that I didn't care about."

Watson plays Sam, a high school senior who, along with Miller's Patrick, introduces Lerman's freshman Charlie to a world of sex, drugs and awkward adolescence. "I definitely tapped into some awkward childhood memories for this movie," Lerman explained. "It's been a year and a half since I first signed on to the project, so to be out here making it is a pretty big deal for me. It's cool to be working with this great cast of young actors."

Dobrev, on a break from "Vampire Diaries," echoed those sentiments. "Every hiatus, my goal is to try something different, and this is a small part in a great, fun indie that has a great script," she said of playing Charlie's sister. "It's been fun to meet such great new people. Everyone really gets along and is really friendly and fun."

Their subject matter, it should be said, is not all fun or funny. When when we showed up on set the stars were filming a raucous school-dance sequence set to "Come on Eileen," but "Perks" takes on potentially controversial material about suicide, drug use and sexuality. These may be divisive topics to some, but ask any teen and he or she will say it's all part of their world.

"I don't think there will be one teenager who will watch this and not have one story or one moment that they don't deeply feel they can relate to," Watson said.

'Twilight' Newcomers The Joy Formidable Surprised By Spot On Soundtrack

'I haven't seen the films,' frontwoman Ritzy Bryan confesses, despite landing lead-off track on 'Breaking Dawn' soundtrack.

There are some bands prepared for the increased attention that a spot on a "Twilight" soundtrack brings. And then there are bands like voluminous rockers the Joy Formidable who, despite snagging the opening slot on the upcoming "Breaking Dawn" soundtrack, remain blissfully unaware of everything to come. Or, really, everything about the "Twilight" series, for that matter.

"I can't say I've ever read one. I haven't seen the films either, but I have heard the soundtracks, and I was familiar with some of the songs, you know, Metric and the Black Keys," frontwoman Ritzy Bryan told MTV News. "So I was more aware of the musical side of 'Twilight' than I was the books or the movies. Actually, I know very little [about the books]. I know they're about vampires, and I know they've connected very much with an audience ... so they're obviously much enjoyed by a lot of people."

And yet, despite all that, their contribution to the "Breaking Dawn" soundtrack — a ringing, downright desperate song called "Endtapes" that will be the album's lead-off track — fits seamlessly; mostly because, as Bryan explained, it is very much about the themes that remain central to the "Twilight" series.

"The song was written at the same time as our album, and because of that, it has a lot of the tone and the feel of the album. And those songs, there's a lot of turbulence going on, and it definitely chronicles a year that was very turbulent on one hand, but you know, it's me trying to push for that hope and that sense of optimism," she said. "It's a song that captures that spirit. It's a song about the frustration of not being able to have closure on a difficult situation."

And given that, unlike fellow "Breaking Dawn" artist Christina Perri, she's basically oblivious to the entire "Twilight" phenomenon, Bryan has no idea where "Endtapes" will be used in the upcoming "Breaking Dawn" film ... shoot, she's not even sure she and her bandmates will get invited to the premiere. That doesn't mean they wouldn't go, of course.

"I don't know anything about that! If we get an invite, I wouldn't mind going to the cinema. I haven't been to the cinema for such a long time," she laughed. "We've been perpetually on the road for about a year and a half, and we watch lots and lots of DVDs in our van, but a trip to the cinema would be wonderful. I would have to do some laundry, but that would be fine!"

Lady Gaga Rehearses for Sting Anniversary Concert

Gearing up for tomorrow night's big ado, Lady Gaga made a colorful arrival to the Beacon Theater in New York City on Friday (September 30).

Clad in an all-yellow ensemble, the "Judas" singer was on-hand for rehearsals for Sting's 25th Anniversary Concert - as the show will benefit the Robin Hood Foundation, which fights poverty in NYC.

Meanwhile, we're also just days away from the release of Gaga's collaboration with Cher on "The Greatest Thing".

Of the much-talked-about track, producer RedOne told MTV, "I think it's timeless. The beautiful thing about this song is, it's very uplifting, very uplifting. It's emotional, but it has dance on it, and it has a dance vibe on it. It's just a timeless song. You can play it with the guitar, the piano, with whatever instrument you want. You can sing it a cappella, you know what I mean, it's that kind of song.

"I'm very excited about that song," RedOne added. "And it's an event. Cher and Lady Gaga: How big can it get?"

Ryan Gosling's Taking Over Hollywood

From co-starring with Hollywood heavy hitters like George Clooney to filming his newest movie, The Gangster Squad, with Emma Stone, Ryan Gosling looks poised to be the next big name in movies. In Touch caught up with Ryan to talk about his latest film, Drive.

?When I read this script and I was looking at this character?s behavior ? he was going around acting like a maniac ? I thought, ?This is somebody who has seen too many movies,'" he explained. "He basically started to become the hero of the movie of his life. I thought that could be implemented into this script, but I needed a director that could help me achieve that.?

Ryan, with the support of producer Marc Platt, was given the opportunity to produce and find the right director for the film. He chose Nicolas Winding Refn. ?I wanted this movie to be something that had personality and an identity, and that you wanted to be in the movie theater to see. I was watching his films and seeing that they were like the Grimm?s brothers fairy tales. They?re also very personal. I appreciate how personal his films are, and that they have a real identity.?

But it wasn?t easy getting Drive made. ?This movie wouldn?t have happened, if REO Speedwagon hadn?t come on the radio when I was driving Nicolas home from our first terrible meeting. No one was getting any action. So, we wanted to just go home. Suddenly, REO Speedwagon [?Can?t Fight This Feeling?] came on the radio, and he started crying, and then he started singing the song, at the top of his lungs. He said, ?This is it. This movie is about a guy who can?t feel anything, unless he?s driving around, listening to pop music.? The movie was conceived in my car. It had this dreamlike quality, while we were shooting it. It was a very unique movie-making experience.?

Drive is in theaters now. And watch out for Ryan?s next film, The Ides of March, starring George Clooney, opening October 7.

ET's Nancy O'Dell Does It All

Nancy O?Dell knows how she wants to balance her work life and her personal life. After 13 years on Access Hollywood, Nancy quit her job in 2009. Now two years later, she?s co-hosting on Entertainment Tonight ? and she couldn?t be happier. "Balancing work and family is always tough, but fortunately, I have a great boss who understands how important family is to me.?

And Nancy makes sure to carve time out of her busy schedule for her family, which consists of husband Keith Zubchevich, their daughter Ashby, 4, and Keith?s sons Tyler, 15, and Carson, 12. ?This week was the first week of the new TV season," Nancy explains, "but I also had several events at school for my kids ? and my executive producer helped me do my work schedule around those, as she and I have talked about how important that is to me!? Not only does her new job at ET let her make time for her loved ones, but they are supportive of her family being a part of the action! ?I had to be in London for two weeks for the royal wedding, and I took my whole family with me," she says. "We had a great time! It was educational for the kids and, most importantly, we were together."

A lot of the time Nancy spends with her family is done so outdoors at her home. ?I?m obsessed with the outdoors ? we?re outside all the time! In fact, we just added a fire pit and a theater out by our pool, complete with a Runco television made just for the outdoors," she says. Nancy says she loves bringing the indoors out, and even designed an outdoor furniture line around that concept. Red Carpet by Nancy O?Dell is ?a high-end outdoor furniture line worthy of the red carpet ? it's A-list furniture, so to speak." And it decorates her very own backyard! The line can be found at redcarpetfurniture.com.
