A BAD BOY GOES GOOD
?Fatherhood has changed Colin Farrell in ways you wouldn't believe.
Not only has the actor supposedly given up his hard-partying ways, he
also says parenting has made him reconsider the types of movies he
chooses to make. "There are things I may have done before my son was
born that I won't do anymore. He's given me a will to live I never had
before. A will to stay around for a long time because I want to see
him grow up," the star explained World Entertainment News Network.
"We're in the process of working out custody details and, please God,
there will be shared custody. There will have to be timetables and
schedules, but I will always be in his life for ever. He'll always
know who his dad is. I adore him. For me, fatherhood is the ultimate
success." Here's more proof that the former wildman has reformed:
Colin says he's planning on taking a six month break after his next
movie so that he can spend more time with his son.?

A good dad now
?Bad boy Colin Farrell is a reformed man now that he has a son, James.
The hard-partying actor reportedly also begged ex-girlfriend Kim
Bordenave to give him joint custody of the boy.
The 28-year-old also insisted that he's done with his drinking and
womanising ways and just wants to be a good father now. He will even
be more selective of his film roles.
Said Farrell at an interview: 'There are things I may have done before
my son was born that I won't do anymore. He's given me a will to live
I never had before... For me, fatherhood is the ultimate success.?

?Farrell has even eschewed his wild-man image to sign up for training
in how to be a good father. He and Kim have booked a five-month course
at Hollywood's Parenthood Clinic, where they will be taught breathing
techniques, how to change a diaper and even how a woman breast-feeds.?
"I want to be a real hands-on dad and be there for my kid," he says.
"I want to learn all about being a good dad and put 100 percent into
it."

FARRELL: MY SON HAS GIVEN ME A WILL TO LIVE
Jul 12 2004
?The arrival of his son James brought into sharp focus the way the
young Irish actor's life was heading. "There are things I may have
done before my son was born that I won't do anymore," he says.
"He's given me a will to live I never had before... a will to stay
around for a long time because I want to see him grow up."
?James was born 10 months ago to 34-year-old model Kim Bordenave, a
former girlfriend from whom Farrell is now separated.?

"My baby boy was in bed with me last night and he went down about nine
o'clock," the 28-year-old recalls tenderly. "I read to him and we had
a laugh and I fed him another bottle and went back to bed.
"It's the most gorgeous, gorgeous thing. He's just my friend. He's a
little human who can't quite speak and say what he wants yet and it's
wonderful.
"I adore him. For me, fatherhood is the ultimate success."

Eminem
======
?Bad boy rapper Eminem, formerly woman beater and gay hater, has
suddenly cleaned up his act and become America?s golden boy ? but
should we forgive him? Until recently, it seemed only teenagers and
some music critics had a good word to say about the star, real name
Marshall Mathers.?
(..)
?But all of a sudden the bad boy seems to have grown up. His album is
top of the US charts and his new movie, 8 mile, is packing them in
when the other bad girl from Detroit, Madonna, saw her latest
celluloid masterpiece go straight to video. The film, 8 Mile, directed
by Curtis Hanson has definitely done Eminem lots of favours. His
on-screen counterpart is much kinder and gentler than the
foul-mouthed, tattooed white rapper we?ve come to know. Missing are
his tales of wife beating and much publicised homophobia.?

Eminem?s greatest gift: Hailie Jade
?Hailie Jade Scott was born on December the 25 1995 in Detroit. She is
the one who gave Eminem the strength and the faith to go to the end.
Her birth has been a wake up call for Marshall who really felt
devastated after Ronnie?s death and who nearly gave up his dream to be
a rapper. Hailie made Eminem conscious of his responsibilities towards
his family.?
?Marshall also wanted to be a good and devoted father to his daughter
unlike his own Dad.?
Gavins Blog

--------------------------
"They asked for a fan who thought Eminem was a good father and got a
response from Jessica. "He is a hell of a father," wrote Jessica.
"When Hailie was 1 year old ...he could not afford to even buy
diapers. ...He started working hard and finally made it. It was all
for his little girl. He would give the world to Hailie if he could.
What more could a daughter ask for? A daddy who loves her with all his
heart."

--------------------------
?He might pick fights with dog puppets and certain petit, bald electronica
stars, but Eminem is trying to change. Really.
"I had a wakeup call with my almost going to jail and s--- like, slow down," he
tells Vibe magazine, referring to his trial for carrying a concealed weapon.
(He walked away with two years probation.) "That was me letting my anger get
the best of me, which I've done many times. No more." Instead, he is trying to
be a good dad to Hailie, his 6-year-old daughter - including recording
cleaned-up versions of his songs. "My experience with women has not been great,
man. All I can do is be the best father I can," he says.?

jealous of his relationship with his seven-year-old daughter HAILIE.?

Eminem did not attend the American Music Awards; however it doesn?t
say if it was to care of Hailie.
?Eminem upstaged newcomer Ashanti at the 30th annual American Music
Awards early today, collecting trophies in all four categories in
which he was nominated.
Eminem didn?t attend Monday?s show, which was broadcast from Los
Angeles on the ABC television network, but his 8 Mile co-star Mekhi
Phifer accepted the hip-hop album prize on his behalf.
?Hey y?all, this is Eminem on the phone!? Phifer said as he carried a
mobile phone onstage after the rapper?s first win.?

Dave Navarro
============
?But this former bad boy's got a new outlook on life. ?
Dave says, "I want a happy life. I want a healthy life. I want to feel
good. I want to be able to do my craft the best I can and the gym is
part of that."
It's also a part of his life with Carmen. Dave says, "It's an activity
we can share together."
"Extra" caught up with Dave at Crunch Fitness in Los Angeles, where he
works out with personal trainer Will Thompson. Dave says, "I do seven
days a week, that's the goal."
