Reese Witherspoon goes out on a long jog this morning with her assistant and sticks her tongue out at the photographers in a very playful mood when passing them on Tuesday (November 30) in Brentwood, Calif.

The 34-year-old actress covers Glamour magazine's January 2011 issue and talks about what life has been like for her in the past few years.

On how her goals have changed since making Legally Blonde: "My ambition has sort of broadened. I'm more interested in literature, art, public policy. And I'm really interested in doing more philanthropic endeavors."

On her life: "I'm really, really lucky. I've got a lot of love in my life. I've got great friends. I have two great kids whom I make pancakes for every Sunday. I'm very blessed."

On dating a celebrity: "…what I'm finding out is that it's very comfortable to be with somebody who understands my career, but doesn't do what I do. [Jim Toth]'s a great guy. He's wonderful."

Mandy Moore speaks out about her efforts to help fight malaria with Nothing But Nets in a new piece for HuffPo.

The 26-year-old actress and signer wrote, “My experience was life-changing, and the many special moments and people from my trip are always on my mind.”

“Our goal was to launch the second of three phases of a distribution campaign to cover the entire country [of the Central African Republic], providing a net to every family to protect them from malaria. Even though a net sounds so simple, insecticide-treated nets can prevent malaria transmission by up to 90% if used consistently and correctly,” Mandy added.

A donation of $10 can make a difference to a family - find out how you can make a difference at NothingButNets.net! You can also read Mandy’s full piece over at HuffPo.

Britney Spears‘ team has released a statement about tapes alleging physical abuse by Jason Trawick. Check it:

“Every aspect of the story published by Star Magazine is completely and utterly false and Star Magazine was informed of the falsity of this story before it was published. The statements attributed to Jason Alexander are a complete fabrication as Britney has not had any form of communication with Mr. Alexander in years. The audio recording posted on Radaronline this morning purporting to be between Britney Spears and Jason Alexander is so obviously fake as to be laughable. Suffice it to say, that Jason Trawick has never laid a hand on Britney. This is just another example of the irresponsible nature of the tabloid media relying on shoddy sources and false information for the sole purpose of selling magazines, without regard to the truth and without regard to who they hurt in the process. These irresponsible statements are defamatory and Britney Spears’ legal team will be taking legal action against all of the appropriate parties.”

There you have it!

Christina Aguilera has opened up for the first time about her boyfriend Matthew Rutler.

The 29-year-old Burlesque singer insists they didn’t begin dating until after she filed for divorce six weeks ago. Here’s what Christina shared with People (via Daily Mail):

On Rutler being the set assistant on Burlesque: “Matthew is a special person. We had a really strong friendship on the movie. He’s the kind of person you could spend hours on the phone talking to and all of a sudden it’s daylight.”

On not rushing into things: “Once I filed for divorce, we started dating. I’m not trying to jump into anything. I just left a five-year marriage. I’m taking it slow and trying to be happy.”

On Christina and Matthew’s relationship: “There’s a love there, yes. I’m having fun, I’m dating and it’s something I haven’t had in a really long time.”

On her marriage to Jordan Bratman starting off well: “We were great the first year after [our son] Max was born. Jordan was amazing. He was the first to change Max’s diaper. Then things turned. I was nurturing Max and felt independent in the relationship.”

On maturing as a woman: “I went right into filming Burlesque [in Autumn last year]. As a musician you’re with your posse all the time, and during the movie I removed myself from mine. So I had an independence I’d never felt before. I was growing leaps and bounds daily. I went from being a girl to a woman. When I finished filming, I didn’t feel right in my own shoes [at home]. I had a lot of things stirring inside of me that I felt were being suppressed. We tried to work on the marriage and figure out a common ground, but the problems were obvious.”

Wow, what a candid interview!

Here’s what the 21-year-old Glee star had to share:

On whether he’ll bring his Nashville influence to the show: “I would like to eventually do that. The writers and creators pick the music, so it depends on what they pick. If they pick a Justin Timberlake song, I am not going to put a country twist on that, but it would be great to do it one day.”

On a typical work day: “Work. Work. Work. I wake up, take a shower, go to work; then go to dance rehearsal and then to the gym and back home at night.”

On whether there’s competition between cast members: “No. Everyone gets along really well. We are all working toward the same goal, which is a great show.”

The 26-year-old Tron star, who modeled clothing by Prada and Louis Vuitton, chatted about how he knew acting was for him and what’s next.

On growing up hoping to be an actor: “I was raised on a farm in Minnesota. Television and movies were our only escape. It was always a dream to be an actor and live in the city.”

On what’s next for him: “Country Strong is coming out soon and I play a young country music singer, then later, On the Road where I play the character Dean Moriarty from the book. This has been a dream project. I have been cast for On the Road since 2007 and have been hoping for it to be made one day. Every day has been such an incredible experience. Working with [director] Walter Salles has just been incredible. This shoot has been the closest thing to a guerrilla-style shoot. We have been constantly moving from one city to another, from one country to another. It has been the experience of a lifetime.”
