BROUGHT TO YOU BY ONE HOUR HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING:

Claire Danes is pregnant and expecting her second child with her husband, Hugh Dancy, the actress revealed this morning. “I am pregnant. I’m seriously prego … I’m deep into my second trimester,” the Homeland actress, 39, revealed in an interview, but did say she’s keeping the gender private. Danes and the Path actor, 42, met on the set of the 2006 drama Evening and tied the knot in 2009. They welcomed son Cyrus, now 5, in December 2012.

An obsessed Taylor Swift fan, who traveled from Colorado to the singer’s home in Beverly Hills last weekend, had a knife and rope with him when he was arrested. Police say 38-year-old Julius Sandrock was arrested after Taylor’s security guards spotted him on the property. Taylor was not home at the time. Officers say the man was wearing a mask and a search of his car turned up a knife, rope, ammunition, gloves and other masks. There were also prescription medications found inside the vehicle. Despite the disturbing findings, police released Sandrock from custody while they continue their investigation but have obtained a restraining order preventing the man from possessing guns. Talk About It: He had a knife and rope in his car and police released him?

Will KHLOE KARDASHIAN ever be able to kiss and make up with TRISTAN THOMPSON? Not if her family has anything to do with it! Sources tell TMZ that the new mom hasn’t spoken to the Cleveland Cavaliers star for “several days,” their relationship is hanging by a thread and she’s simply putting on a brave face for the sake of their daughter, TRUE. Word is KRIS JENNER has been at her baby girl’s side since the scandal broke, sisters KIM, KOURTNEY and KENDALL flew in on Monday, then hightailed it back to Los Angeles on a private plane yesterday.

Ain’t gonna happen: actor JAKE GYLLENHAAL revealed during an interview with China News Asia that he would not be the next actor to play Batman. “The answer to that question is ‘no’,” he said, dispelling a rumor that’s been going around since late last year. So it’s back to ground zero in the search for the new Caped Crusader.

Barbara Bush will be laid to rest on Saturday in a private, invitation-only funeral. The former first lady died Tuesday at the age of 92. Her family says she will be buried on the grounds of the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library at Texas A&M University, which is where the Bushes’ daughter Robin was buried in 1953. Robin was only three-years-old when she died of leukemia. A funeral will be held at St. Martin’s Episcopal Church in Houston where she and former president George H.W. Bush attended regularly. She will lie in repose on Friday so that the public can pay their respects.

AND FINALLY, TODAY’S CELEBRITY TWEET OF THE DAY, ONE OF MANY ABOUT BARBARA BUSH’S PASSING:
