Spiderman star Tobey Maguire says it is ‘challenging’ to juggle a film career and time with his family.

Maguire, 36, became a dad for the second time last year when his wife Jennifer Meyer gave birth to their son Otis. The couple also have a three-year-old daughter Ruby.

Talking about new flick Brothers, he told The Boston Globe: “You’re working on the movie 12 to 14 hours a day, and then going home and preparing for the next day, memorising lines, reflecting on what you did, and thinking about what you have to do the next day.

“It wasn’t easy. Put it this way, my wife told me I wasn’t much fun to be around for those few months.”

Maguire added that the intensity of filming can sometimes be tough when you have a young family.

He said: “It’s always challenging. It does create tension [in the relationship]. But my wife, she understands, and we both do the best we can to get through those experiences.”

Rihanna elaborates on relationship with her father

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

The singer recently made even more unveilings as to the nature of her relationship with her father and why they became more and more distanced from each other. Rihanna related the following about how her father reacted after the incident with Chris Brown:
“He kind of did something that was really upsetting. He turned his back on me and went to the media. He got paid to talk about stuff – all these little interviews he was doing after the whole situation in February. I hadn’t spoken to him and he was speaking as though we did. It was so disappointing to me.” Well, well… isn’t this an interesting new story for Rihanna to tell her grandchildren. Why now? Wouldn’t it just have been better for Rihanna to leave this in the shadows… doubtfully coming clean now will solve anything. But as for making matters worse… well, now there’s a possibility!
