People (the most reliable of tabloids) and US have reported that Amy Adams and fiancé Darren Legallo are expecting their first child together!

The couple, who have been together seven years, met in acting class in 2001 and became engaged in July 2008.

“I probably won’t have a big family,” Adams has said. “I can barely manage my own life! But I do want to have a family.”

We want to extend out most heartfelt of congratulations to the adorable couple! This is wonderful and exciting news, we wish them all the happiness in the world on their growing family!

Amy is on Empire magazine’s Sexiest Movie Stars list at #25. Before Eliza Dushku and after Sienna Miller. View her entry here.

So button-cute that, when Disney needed an actress who could play a cartoon princess come to life, she was the only serious option, Adams is arguably the world’s hottest ginger, ahead of Her From Girls Aloud and, erm, Ginny Weasley.

Most alluring as… Adams doesn’t generally do alluring, but she does cute-as-all-get-out, wholesome, girl-next-door and aw-shucks-ain’t-she-sweet in all manner of films. That said, her ditsy bed-hopping chanteuse in Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day is pretty irresistible.

Interests include… Apparently, she’s been so focused on her career that she hasn’t really had time to develop any hobbies. Goddammit, get this girl some hobbies, people! Even stamp collecting will do!

On behalf of the fans, we want to wish Amy Adams a wonderfully happy (belated) birthday! She turned 35 yesterday, August 20th.

I didn’t have time to organize another birthday project this year, but feel free to leave your comments in the comments field portion of the update.

Happy Birthday Amy!

Amy Adams will star opposite Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale in The Fighter, which David O. Russell is directing for Relativity Media and Paramount.

The drama revolves around the life of boxer “Irish” Mickey Ward (Wahlberg) and trainer-brother Dick Eklund (Bale), chronicling their early days on the rough streets of Lowell, Mass., through Eklund’s battle with drugs and Ward’s eventual world championship in London.

Adams will play Charlene, a tough, gritty bartender and former college high-jumper from Massachusetts who ends up dating Mickey.

Melissa Leo also has been cast as Wahlberg and Bale’s mother.

The movie begins shooting next month in Lowell.

As most of you know, Miss Adams is gracing the cover of W magazine’s May issue! And how gorgeous is the shoot! It’s also quite unlike an previous shoots to date so that’s super cool. The article is yet another fascinating read, it’s available here in our library so be sure to check it out. I don’t know when I’ll be able to purchase the magazine myself, but I will try and get scans up as soon as possible.

“She is so transformative in her acting, and that’s the hardest thing to be,” says Shawn Levy, director of Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, out in May, in which Adams plays Amelia Earhart. “It’s rare among younger actors and especially rare among attractive actors. It’s the domain of so-called character actors. Amy never got the memo that she’s superhot.
