Fans say Britney Spears bikini pic was either photoshopped, or her back learned to levitate.

Another bikini pic, another bad Photoshop job. The bikini picture Britney Spears Instagrammed on Sunday, the one where she's sunbathing next to a pool? Yeah, that's almost definitely photoshopped.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BDMLaycm8Lk/

She looks really fit. So fit! Hmmm…maybe a little…too fit? If you look at her waist, that thin, fit waist, you will almost immediately notice that she is somehow floating on water, because the bit of concrete around the pool has mysteriously vanished. Fans pointed out, "Thigh gap?? She has back gap!" (Author's note: It is killing me that I somehow didn't notice this when I wrote up this post yesterday.)

Well, what do you know, she's like a sunbathing Jesus.

Celebrities photoshopping their Instagram pictures is par for the course at this point. Last month Khloé Kardashian posted a photo in which she'd photoshopped her hips. Her sister Kim has done it, and so have Lady Gaga, Lindsay Lohan, and Beyoncé.

It's a fun game, like the kind in the Highlights magazines at the dentist's office—can you spot the error in this photo?

Listen up, celebs: you can't fool the Internet. But that doesn't mean you should stop trying.


Chris Hemsworth hugs his twins in sweet Instagram that successfully shows some arm muscle.

Chris Hemsworth, eye-candy in the upcoming Ghostbusters film, is as perfect off-screen as he is on-screen. On Monday the actor's wife, Spanish actress Elsa Pataky​, shared a photo of Hemsworth celebrating his twin sons' second birthdays.

happy birthday my little boys, there's nothing that makes me happier in life, than being a mum and watch you growing up everyday! 

Pataky's caption failed to mention Hemsworth in all his DILF glory, but then again she is married to him and, impossible as it may seem, has in all likelihood become somewhat used to his blazing hotness.

Hemsworth is also the father to three-year-old India Rose, with whom he similarly takes photos that involve his very impressive arms.

11 celebrities who have done horrific things that you've probably never heard about.

There are many celebrities that you know are scumbags—no one is going to give Chris Brown or Roman Polanski a humanitarian award anytime soon. But other people have somehow managed to keep their names clean despite allegations, whispers, or actual convictions of awful or questionable behavior. Here are some of them.

1. Mark Wahlberg

Marky Mark would really like you to forget that he has multiple hate crimes in his past. When he was 15, the actor was the subject of a civil suit alleging that he threw rocks and yelled racial epithets at black children. At 16, he was convicted for a hate crime for beating a Vietnamese man with a stick and punching a different Vietnamese man in the face on the same day. Throughout the assault and during his arrest, he called both men racial slurs. He was convicted of assault and served 45 days in prison

He's now requesting a pardon for his crimes, which is the stupidest f*cking sh*t in the world

2. Halle Berry

When actress Halle Berry was convicted for a hit-and-run in 2000, prosecutors alleged that she had already been fingered in two additional hit-and-run accidents elsewhere in the country (her lawyers disputed this). It's a matter of public record, however, that Berry fled from the scene of this last accident, in which she received a gash to the forehead and the other driver suffered a broken wrist and other injuries. Berry said, as a part of her defense, that she lost all memory of the incident because of her head injury. Hopefully she remembers to hire a driver these days. 

3. Jay Z

Everyone knows that Jay Z used to be a drug dealer—it's a part of the rapper's whole rags-to-riches mythology—but do you remember that in 1999, after he already became famous, Jay Z was convicted for stabbing a record executive in the gut with a five-inch blade because Hova believed the man had leaked his album? 

Wrote Jay Z in his book Decoded:

One night I went to Q-Tip's solo album release party and at some point in the night, I ran into the guy everyone's been telling me is behind the bootleg. So I approached him. When I told him what I suspected, to my surprise, he got real loud with me right there in the middle of the club. It was strange. We separated and I went over to the bar. I was sitting there like, "No the fuck this n*gga did not....." I was talking to people, but I was really talking to myself out loud, just in a state of shock. Before I even realized what I was doing, I headed back over to him, but this time I was blacking out with anger. The next thing I knew, all hell had broken loose in the club. That night the guy went straight to the police and I was indicted...

There was no reason to put my life on the line, and the lives of everyone who depends on me, because of a momentary loss of control..... I vowed to never allow myself to be in a situation like that again.

And hey, that was more than 15 years ago. At least he isn't asking for a pardon. Mark Wahlberg. 

4. Chuck Berry

It would be really easy to fill this list with all musicians from the mid-century, because the old days? They were awful. However, rock 'n' roll pioneer Chuck Berry is particularly noteworthy because he was sued by nearly 60 women for supposedly filming them while they used the bathroom at the restaurant he owned. Yup. The settlement cost Berry about $1.2 million.

5. Aaron Eckhart

It's not a crime, but it's pretty sh*tty: actor Aaron Eckhart joined a support group for parents who lost children when he was researching his role in Rabbit Hole. He never told any of the parents that he was an actor, and in fact lied to them and told them his child had died. "The gathering is very quiet," he told Howard Stern. "There's 10 people, couples. [Their children had passed away] very recently, it's fresh. You're sitting in sort of a circle. Then one person goes, then two, three, then it gets to me. And by that point you're just so flushed that you just start going and giving the details of the story." He just identified so much with his character, you see.

6. Laura Bush

Whatever your politics, Laura Bush has always seemed like a very nice lady. But when she was 17, Laura Bush ran a stop sign while she was chatting with her friend in her father's car, hitting the car of another teen at her high school and killing him. She wasn't charged in the death, though the incident apparently affected her for years. Still, it should be noted that First Lady Laura Bush has killed a hell of a lot less people than literally any president in U.S. history. 

7. Matthew Broderick

Bush isn't the only famous person to have a deadly history behind the wheel of a car. Matthew Broderick was on vacation in 1987 with his girlfriend at the time, Ferris Bueller's Day Off costar Jennifer Grey, when his car veered into the wrong lane and collided with an oncoming vehicle, killing two women. Broderick, who suffered a head injury in the crash, told authorities he had no memory of the entire day. He was convicted of careless driving and fined less than $200 for the accident, which the family of the deceased called "a travesty of justice."

8. Tim Allen

Before he was the voice of Buzz Lightyear and the star of Home Improvement, Tim Allen was arrested in 1978 for carrying nearly one and a half pounds of cocaine in an airport. That is a huge amount of cocaine. For instance, for example, the sort of quantity of cocaine that a drug dealer would carry. Allen pleaded guilty to drug trafficking charges and provided the names of other drug dealers in order to avoid a life sentence. And because of that bargain, we have The Santa Clause.

9. Dr. Dre

Last year's N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta Compton left out one inconvenient fact about its protagonists: specifically, that rapper Dr. Dre assaulted the female hip hop journalist Dee Barnes in 1991 after she interviewed Ice Cube, who had left N.W.A. a few years prior on bad terms. N.W.A.'s MC Ren, Easy E, and Dre himself all defended the assault, claiming she had it coming. "It ain’t no big thing —I just threw her through a door," Dr. Dre said. He was convicted of misdemeanor battery for the attack, a conviction which, again, was not mentioned in the N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta Compton.

10. Zach Braff

Remember the TV show Punk'd in which Ashton Kutcher played pranks on celebrities? Of course you do. It was by far the best thing that Ashton Kutcher has ever done. When Garden State's Zach Braff was on Punk'd, the prank involved a 12-year-old actor using fake spray paint to tag his expensive car. Braff chased down the kid and punched him in the stomach (which he admits quite gleefully!). This part was edited out of the TV version, as you can imagine.

11. Ace of Base

One of the band members was a Nazi. Really. Try not hearing "I Saw The Sign" in a different light.

One mom's tribute to stay-at-home moms has managed to anger working moms everywhere.

On March 3, Florida mom/tattoo artist/unwitting Internet instigator Ryshell Castleberry posted a tribute to stay-at-home moms on Facebook. The post, which has been shared over 189,000 times and has almost 500,000 likes, is a lengthy (so lengthy) hypothetical conversation between a psychologist (why?) and the completely oblivious husband of a stay-at-home mom. It implies that stay-at-home-moms are working moms, because they take care of the kids and the house all day.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1026867147369849&set=a.213446805378558.54282.100001397198135&type=3

The story reads:

My wife does not work
My wife doesn't work!!!
Conversation between a husband (H) and a psychologist (P):
Q: what do you do for a living Mr. Rogers?
H: I work as an accountant in a bank.
P: Your wife?
H: She doesn't work. She's a housewife.
Q: Who makes breakfast for your family?
H: My wife, because she doesn't work
Q: What time does your wife wake?
H: She wakes up early because it has to be organised. She organizes the lunch for the children, ensures that they are well-dressed and combed, if they had breakfast, if they brush their teeth and take all their school supplies. She wakes with the baby and changes diapers and clothes. Breastfeeds and makes snacks as well.
Q: How do your children get to school?
H: My wife takes them to school, because she doesn't work.
P: After taking their children to school, what does she do?
H: Usually takes a while to figure something out that she can do while she is out, so she doesn't have to pack and unpack the carseat too many times, like drop off bills or to make a stop at the supermarket. Sometimes she forgets something and has to make the trip all over again, baby in tow. Once back home, she has to feed the baby lunch and breastfeed again, get the baby's diaper changed and ready for a nap, sort the kitchen and then will take care of laundry and cleaning of the house. You know, because she doesn't work.
P: In the evening, after returning home from the office, what are you doing?
H: Rest, of course. Well, I'm tired after working all day in the bank.
Q: What does your wife do at night?
H: She makes dinner, serves my children and I, washes the dishes, orders once more the house, makes sure the dog is put away as well as any left over dinner. After helping children with HW she gets them prepared to sleep in pajamas and the baby is in fresh diapers, gives warm milk, verifies they brush their teeth. Once in bed she wakes frequently to continue to breastfeed and possibly change a diaper if needed while we rest. Because she doesn't have to get up for work.

-This is the daily routine of many women all over the world, it starts in the morning and continues until the wee hours of the night... This is called "doesn't work"?!
Being a housewife has no diplomas, but has a key role in family life!
Enjoy and appreciate your wife, mother, grandma, aunt, sister, daughter... Because their sacrifice is priceless.
Somebody asked her...
You are a woman who works or is it just "housewife"??
She replied:
I work as a wife of the home, 24 hours a day..
I am a mother,
I am a woman,
I am a daughter,
I'm the alarm clock,
I'm the cook,
I'm the maid,
I am the master,
I'm the bartender,
I'm the babysitter,
I'm a nurse,
I am a manual worker,
I'm a security officer,
I'm the advisor,
I am the comforter,
I don't have a vacation,
I don't have a licence for disease.
I don't have a day off
I work day and night,
I'm on duty all the time,
I do not receive salary and...
Even so, I often hear the phrase:
" but what do you do all day?"
Dedicated to all the women who give their lives for the welfare of their families
The woman is like salt:
Her presence is not remembered, but its absence makes everything left without flavor.
Share with all the beautiful ladies of your life.
***Picture credits go to: Ricky Mujica***

But the story continued when moms who have jobs outside the home pointed out that they also have to do all that stuff, but with eight hours a day less to do it.

And so Castleberry added a note to her post:

Let me take a minute to clarify something for people making nasty comments or sending me nasty messages. First of all, this statement is generalized ... At no point am I complaining, at no point am I not giving credit to the man who does work, the mom who does work (which I DOOOO, actually, proving how generalized this is and not to be taken LITERAL,) or the stay at home DAD," she wrote. "IF YOU are any of those things, read the message and replace the words with words that fit your situation. No one is coming on here being so specific as to say that they do not breastfeed, their husband is a laborer not a banker or they do not have a dog; IT IS GENERALIZED. You take the POSITIVE that you see from it and leave the rest.

The important things here are: 1) #allmomsmatter and 2) who is this dunce who takes his wife for granted and why is his wife putting up with his bullsh*t attitude?

Get it together, guy. You've surely got other fake issues you should be talking about with your fake therapist.

Here's what Jimmy Kimmel considers the 10 most important celebrity tweets of all time.

On Monday, Jimmy Kimmel Live!celebrated Twitter’s 10th birthday by ranking the "The Ten Most Celebrity Tweets of All Time." The segment featured hilariously nonsensical tweets from mainstream celebrities who you probably follow already, such as: Kanye West, Justin Bieber, Kourtney Kardashian, and of course, Donald J. Trump.

The most cockamamie aspect of the entire thing? Not one, but two Drumpf tweets were featured in the segment.

It's not the Oscars or anything, but come on, give the invisible celebrity tweet trophy to Biebs or 50 Cent—isn't it obvious they posted the greatest tweets of all time?

Samantha Bee's takedown on the nationwide rape kit backlog is why it's huge to have a late-night host who's female.

Samantha Bee continues to crush it on her new show Full Frontal by discussing things that no other late-night television show hosts would. This week, Bee takes on a story about the backlog of thousands of rape kits, and the politicians who aim to destroy them. Basically, rape kits are used to gather and preserve physical evidence after allegations of a sexual assault, so yeah, they are kind of handy to keep around. Somehow, Bee manages to cover the controversial topic with humor the way only Samantha Bee—late-night's only female host—can.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrxTrR5_8Zo

Of course, Bee has never been shy about covering controversial topics on her show. Much to the chagrin of the folks over at Fox News, she has covered everything from the Syrian Refugee Crisis to women's health issues

It's doubtful she's losing any sleep over a little hate from conservatives.

After Donald Trump hits on a Washington Post journalist, his trolls make sure she doesn't feel 'beautiful.'

On Monday evening, Donald Trump met with the editorial board of the Washington Post, and following the interview reportedly told a female reporter she was "beautiful." The reporter, Karen Attiah, tweeted about the incident, and wrote an article detailing the encounter. 

https://twitter.com/KarenAttiah/status/711984332622204928

Trump took a question from Attiah at the end of the interview, and she describes how the remark took place afterwards:

As the meeting ended and we were walking out of the room, I thanked Trump for taking my question. He turned to me and said, “I really hope I answered your question,” and added casually with a smile, “Beautiful.” I was stunned. I didn’t say thank you, and I don’t think I smiled. He then walked out to meet with my Post colleagues briefly before heading to the elevator. I stayed in the conference room for a few minutes as it sunk in that the potential GOP nominee for president thought it was okay to comment on my appearance. Did he just say that?

Regrettably, Internet trolls sounded their battle cry and immediately added their takes on the situation:

https://twitter.com/Cernovich/status/711995954388279296

That troll, Mike Cernovich, is the same one who tweeted the following when a "legal rape" men's rights blogger had his identity leaked in February:

https://twitter.com/Cernovich/status/695527193980436481

Several trolls felt it was an overreaction, or even faked:

https://twitter.com/AgoristArtist/status/712002813660778496https://twitter.com/adudeinaplace/status/711996352742367233https://twitter.com/ItalyGG/status/712011297806659584https://twitter.com/golfrnsavh/status/712042964932009984https://twitter.com/CitanOfDarjani/status/712014017255104512

Regardless of the trolls, Attiah was stunned that over the incident and, ultimately, saddened:

Perhaps he thought that calling me beautiful would make me ignore the fact that he brazenly lied about his polling numbers among Hispanic voters. Or make me believe that he wasn’t really a racist. Who knows? At least now I know, firsthand, that the sexism that Trump puts on display against Megyn Kelly under the lights of national TV is not that much different from how he is in real life toward female journalists.

Sad.

To any prospective trolls, realize that Attiah has simply reported what she claims Trump said to her. She should be commended for maintaining her professionalism, and avoiding such obvious comebacks as, "thanks, but I don't date frosted hams" or "I'd shake your hands but they're too small."

Cafe owner goes full Kanye on customers who skipped bill, promises 'the biggest public roasting' of their lives.

This past weekend, two café-goers allegedly dined, ditched, and then, they were blasted on Facebook for not paying their tab at a café in Dublin, Ireland. White Moose Cafe owner Paul Stenson apparently didn't want the pair to get away with free breakfast so he channeled his inner Kanye and threatened to release CCTV footage of them on Facebook in a high-powered social media rant.

https://www.facebook.com/WhiteMooseCafe/posts/1716297288650880

On Saturday, Stenson wrote a public warning to the dine and dashers, giving them “120 minutes to call us and pay by card." He continued:

If you do not pay [within that] timeframe I will share a CCTV image of you on this page and give you the biggest public roasting of your lives. 

Many thanks for your cooperation,

Paulie

P.S. Our number is 018386633. For the benefit of your mental health, I suggest you don't ask to talk to me.

In a follow-up post which was written on the same day, Stenson said the couple thought breakfast was included in their overnight stay at the Charleville Lodge Hotel (the cafe is located inside the hotel building). The couple paid their $34-something bill just in time—before Stenson released the CCTV image shaming them. 

Although the pair finally closed their tab, Stenson still seemed to be pretty heated. In the follow-up post, he attacked the pair calling them "fat bastards" because "they both had porridge as well as Full Irish breakfasts."

https://www.facebook.com/WhiteMooseCafe/photos/a.1626436094303667.1073741828.1623682991245644/1716338795313396/?type=3&theater

His message reveals the full capacity of his compassion for customers who don't pay, no matter the reason:

**BAD NEWS GUYS**

The couple who conveniently walked out without paying earlier today just rang to pay their bill. They turned out to be hotel guests and thought "breakfast was included" in their room. Likely story. I guess that's why they both had porridge as well as Full Irish breakfasts. The fat bastards.

In many ways it's a pity they called. Could you imagine the amount of fun we could have had for the sake of a lousy €31.70. They were also very rude to the staff so I was actually looking forward to roasting them publicly. You wouldn't believe how pissed off I am right now.

Undoubtedly, Stenson received backlash his posts. One person commented the entire incident was a “clear misunderstanding” and accused Stenson for making it a big deal to get “FB advertising." On the other hand, the owner also nabbed some supporters. One said that the White Moose Cafe is “on their bucket list.”

To separate the haters from the supporters, Paul also created an online poll, which he posted on Facebook after a woman told him that “nobody that has read any of your posts is ever going to bring any business to you."

The results showed 1,372 people would still dine at White Moose Cafe and 31 who wouldn’t.

https://www.facebook.com/WhiteMooseCafe/photos/a.1626436094303667.1073741828.1623682991245644/1716822498598359/?type=3&theater

"To clarify. When these guys checked in, they were told breakfast was not included. When they booked, their confirmation said that breakfast was not included. On departure when they were asked did they have any extras, they said no," he wrote on another post.

https://www.facebook.com/WhiteMooseCafe/posts/1716364918644117

"I can understand that some of you don’t have the intelligence to distinguish chancers from people who make genuine mistakes. But read my lips. These were CHANCERS."

Kudos to Stenson for getting his money back, but would you consider his publicity stunt method, classy? This isn't the first time Stenson and his little White Moose Cafe caught fire on social media. Back in January, the restaurant received backlash from folks for banning vegans. Yikes.

Kate Middleton shares the unexpectedly sweet and boring present she got the queen on her first Christmas with royalty.

In honor of the Queen's 90th birthday, a bunch of royal family members sat down for interviews for a special documentary (airing March 27) that shares such fun and mundane facts as how the Queen liked to catch leaves as a child. One of the family members who chatted ever so politely about Queen Elizabeth II—whose big birthday is on April 21—was the Duchess of Cambridge. Speaking in a television interview for the first time by her herself, Duchess Kate had only nice things to say, because that's her job.

https://twitter.com/WhatKateWore/status/711647841748389890

"I can remember being at Sandringham [one of the royal estates], for the first time, at Christmas," the Duchess recounted, "and I was worried what to give the Queen as her Christmas present. I was thinking, ‘Gosh, what should I give her?'"

That's a serious conundrum—what on earth does a simple plebeian give the matriarch of her husband's family and (symbolic) ruler of a country. 

"Look at all these people I own."

"I thought back to what would I give my own grandparents," Kate said of the 2011 visit, "and I thought, ‘I’ll make her something,' which could have gone horribly wrong. But I decided to make my granny’s recipe of chutney." How personal and uninteresting at the same time.

In the end, the chutney was a success since Duchess Kate is perfect. And because this documentary is all about praising the Queen, Kate revealed that the Queen even placed the chutney on the table for a meal the next day, which Kate found very touching. “I think such a simple gesture went such a long way for me and I’ve noticed since she’s done that on lots of occasions and I think it just shows her thoughtfulness, really, and her care in looking after everybody.”

Among other salient factoids the Duchess shared was that Prince George, the oldest of her two children, calls the Queen and his great-grandmother "Gan-Gan."

"Gan-Gan did you like my mom's chutney?"

Queen Gan-Gan has a nice ring to it.

For those who don't check up on Justin Bieber that often, his hair is quickly becoming as unruly as his public persona.

As Cosmopolitan pointed out, Bieber has been using hair ties to pull back his blonde locks—but not his own. He enjoys sliding the elastics off the wrists of celebrity friends and fans.

https://www.instagram.com/p/_2ZVhKAvph/https://twitter.com/DazzlingAsia/status/711371077767671808

He's apparently so unfamiliar with hair ties, that he brought up a fan to do his hair at a recent concert.

https://twitter.com/badlandsbiebs/status/710732125918650368

Justin Bieber, you are a very wealthy man-child who is more than able to spend $3 on a pack of hair ties. Here's a pro-tip: buy a couple packs and leave a few ties in the places you most frequent. Then, stop taking them from people who need their own hair ties just as much as you do. End the madness. 

Is it acceptable to take a stranger's hair tie?

On March 20, 18-year-old Devin Washington was interviewing for a job at a Popeyes in New Orleans when someone tried to rob the restaurant. According to Danyanna Metoyer, the manager conducting Washington's interview, a man (later identified as Pablo Ciscart, 50) came into the restaurant, asked the cashier if she could change a dollar, and then reached over and grabbed the money from the register.

According to a police news release, the assistant manager, Dominique Griffin, tried to grab the guy, but he broke free from her and ran for the door. But Metoyer blocked his exit. "My upper-body strength was stronger than his, she told the Associated Press. Meanwhile, job interviewee turned hero Devin Washington grabbed the man's arm and bent it backward. His future coworker, cook Michael Ford helped Washington hold the robber while they waited for the police to show up.

Washington got the job, of course. According to the Associated Press, Metoyer said she and Griffin were already planning on giving Washington the job, but hadn't told him yet. After he helped foil the burglary, she told Washington, "You're hired. You earned it."

Can you imagine how badly you'd have to screw up an interview to not get hired after helping stop the place from getting robbed? So, so badly.

Cartoonists around the world, particularly in France, are creating art to express the grief and emotions following the tragic terrorist attacks in Brussels, Belgium that took place Tuesday morning. People are creating and sharing art to express their sadness and to show solidarity with the people of Belgium.

Cartoonists in particular are getting involved, because Belgium is beloved for its comic books, like Tintin. Artists have been turning Brussels' famous statue of a boy peeing into a powerful symbol of defiance, and using panels of Tintin to express their grief.

Viral brain teaser challenges you to find Donald Trump's lurking face in a pile of Tribbles.

Artist Michael Rogalski recently confused your brain with an Oscar statue hidden in a sea of C-3POs, and now Mental Floss has brought him back to melt your mind with "The Trumple With Tribbles." The image features Donald Trump lurking among a mountain of fluffy Star Trek aliens (who Trump would likely vow to build a wall around the Earth in order to keep out).

Can you find The Donald faster than you can find this dog or this panda?

If you've grown Tribble-curious while completing this brain teaser, below is a clip from their origin, a Star Trek episode called "The Trouble With Tribbles." The trouble being that they're rapidly multiplying and piling up to William Shatner's shoulders.

Sneaky Trump is always watching.

Yes, Jake Gyllenhaal auditioned for 'The Lord of the Rings' and this is the cringeworthy story.

Doesn't it make you feel good when you find out that very good looking, rich, famous people sometimes have off days, too? Jake Gyllenhaal told Jimmy Fallon Monday night about his audition for Frodo in The Lord of the Ringstrilogy, and it is fantastically awkward. Gyllenhaal recounts the painful audition, including bombing during an improv section and delivering lines without an accent.

Wait, so Jake didn't audition with an accent for Lord of the Rings and then decided to use a heavy lisp for his audition for Dude, Where's My Car?

That's an interesting choice. They do say "with great risk comes great reward," but maybe leaving unnecessary vocal affectations out of your audition for high budget movies roles is the better choice.

Somehow, Gyllenhaal was able to move forward from these awkward auditions and go on to star in a few little movies like Brokeback Mountain and Nightcrawler. So it seems like he was not too deterred by the embarrassing experiences.

Diane Lane brought her eerily identical daughter to the 'Batman v. Superman' premiere.

On Sunday, Diane Lane attended the Batman v. Superman premiere at Radio City Music Hall in New York with her doppelgänger ​and daughter Eleanor Lambert. Lane plays Clark Kent's mother, Martha, in the latest film featuring Superman. In real life, she is the mother to Eleanor, her daughter with ex-husband Christopher Lambert. And mother and daughter look very, very much alike:

Superhero genes.

Here's Diane Lane with the main cast:

And here's something that might as well be leaked footage from the Batman v. Superman premiere:

Eleanor is fortunate to share her mother's youthful looks. Some mothers and daughters aren't able to pull it off very well.
