| Kate Hudson: Beau Matt Bellamy Is "Lovely" |
 |
Kate Hudson is finally musing out loud about Muse singer Matt Bellamy, her beau of a few months.
"He`s lovely," Hudson, 31, says of Bellamy, 32, in the new issue of Elle UK. But she`s not a hardcore Muse fan just yet, she admits. "My favorite Muse song? Ha ha ha! I`m not well-versed enough on that," she tells the mag. "I`m getting there, though. Matt and I are just learning about each other and it`s wonderful."
But the ex-wife of rocker Chris Robinson -- other former lovers include Alex Rodriguez, Owen Wilson and Lance Armstrong -- isn`t feeling the marital vibe just yet.
Marriage is "definitely not something I`m looking for," she says. "But the divorce doesn`t put me off. I`ll just see what happens. I think a lot of times people are terrified of love and stop themselves from experiencing it. I don`t ever want to get that jaded. I do believe in love."
Hudson and Bellamy stepped out together in June. A month later, Bellamy told Britain`s Daily Mirror that he was meeting Hudson`s parents (mom Goldie Hawn and stepdad Kurt Russell).
"Things are going great at the moment. I am very happy," Bellamy told the paper. "It`s a little bit too soon to talk about weddings and stuff. Ask me again in a few months, though. I`ll let you know how it went with Goldie – and then who knows?"
According to UK`s The Times, the pair met a long time ago in Australia, when Hudson was still married to Robinson, and Bellamy was dating another woman. "But this time we met and we weren`t," he said.

| Nate Berkus Gives Us a Tour of His Home |
 |
He`s designed hundreds of spaces for the Oprah Winfrey Show, but now Nate Berkus is taking UsMagazine.com behind the scenes of his latest makeover -- his own New York City apartment!
Relocating to the city from Chicago to tape his syndicated design series, The Nate Berkus Show, premiering Sept. 13, Berkus, 38, moved into a two-bedroom apartment in NYC`s Chelsea neighborhood.
To give the ultra-modern 1,700-square-foot rental a cozy feel, Berkus relied on natural materials, antiques and "things that have meaning, like gifts from friends," he says. (Take a video tour of his space, above.)
One of Berkus` favorite pieces: a leather rhinoceros that was a wedding gift to the designer`s parents, who divorced when he was 18-months-old.
"It ended up in the basement of my mother`s house in Minnesota," Berkus says of the item that is now displayed in his foyer. "I looked at it one day when I was home and 10 years ago, my mother gave it to me. It`s always been with me in every home I`ve moved to."
The designer`s top tip to furnish your digs on a budget?
"The flea market is the best place in the world," he tells Us. "When you`ve got that bookshelf that seems so intimidating [to fill], you can buy things for $3 or $4 -- whether they`re vases or little storage boxes or vintage coffee table books -- those are the things that really rise up in your home and tell the story of who you are. I would never go in and design something with all new things."

| NJ Housewives` Caroline: "Crazy" Days Are Over |
 |
The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Caroline Manzo says she expected "yelling, screaming, and tears" on Monday`s reunion.
"I NEVER expected Andy to get tossed like a rag doll," she writes on her Bravo blog. "I was in complete shock when that happened."
When Teresa Guidice flipped out on Danielle Staub -- screaming two inches from her face -- Manzo, 49, says, "I wanted to cry. Seriously, I did."
Luckily, after that moments passed, "it never got to that level again," she says.
She says Monday`s reunion was "the last time we were all going to be together." (Staub, 48, reportedly was fired from the show`s third season, which begins filming soon.)
Now, Manzo says she can begin "exiting the `crazy turnpike` and finding the `sunshine and lollipop highway.`"
