Marisa Miller on Making Her Film Debut in R.I.P.D: "It's So Exciting"

Get ready to see Marisa Miller's big-time acting debut!

The beautiful Victoria's Secret angel is taking her talents from the catwalk to the big screen with her upcoming film R.I.P.D, which costars Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds and hits theaters this Friday.

"It's so exciting, and for my first film to be a part of such an amazing cast is such an honor," she tells E! News' Terrence Jenkins

So what role does Miller play in the funny crime flick?

"R.I.P.D stands for the Rest in Peace Department, so Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds are cops of the underworld and when they come to earth fighting these bad guys, they're dead, so people on the street would see me—I'm Jeff Bridges' disguise—and Ryan Reynolds has his disguise who is Grandpa Chen [James Hong]. So the visual of us two together…a lot of the comedy plays out within that," she explains.

The blond bombshell even did her own stunts!

"Originally the stunt where I get hit by the bus, it was really dangerous and they were gonna have a stunt woman do it but the shot was really tight and they asked me to do it," Miller told us.

"I'm pretty athletic, and I was actually really excited that they asked me to do it because it was one of the best memories I had of shooting and it was really intense and hard but it was really funny."

(That's a better reaction than Reynolds almost barfing during his stunts.)

Speaking of the actor, Marisa shared that his charismatic attitude while shooting definitely helped lighten the mood for what she anticipated would be a nerve-wrecking experience.

"He is so funny, naturally. And that was so great about being on set with him. I mean, me working for the first time on set with Kevin Bacon, Jeff Bridges, Ryan Reynolds—I mean, this is an all-star cast so I thought I was gonna be really nervous and intimidated but having someone like Ryan make you laugh was just the best."

Watch the clip to find out how Miller got back to her pre-baby body!

Royal Baby Flashback: Princess Diana Was Induced, See Baby Prince William's Debut

by Brandi Fowler Fri., Jul. 19, 2013 6:56 PM PDT

While the Great Kate Wait continues, we took a look back at details behind Prince William's birth.

The Duke of Cambridge was born on June 21, 1982, and when Princess Diana gave birth to him she "had to be induced."

"I couldn't handle the press pressure any longer, it was becoming unbearable," Diana later told her friend journalist Andrew Morton, according to People. "We went in very early. I was sick as a parrot the whole way through the labor, very bad labor."

Kate, too, was not feeling her best at the beginning of her pregnancy, suffering from bad bouts of acute morning sickness for the first few months.

Although a source told E! News exclusively that Kensington Palace has been operating under the assumption that Kate is two to three days past her due date, doctors in the U.K. don't usually rush their patients into being induced unless they are a week to ten days overdue, according to the mag.

As far as what we can expect when the royal baby does make his or her debut, there might be some clues in a video that aired on Today on June 22, 1982 after Prince William was born.

In the video, Prince Charles stepped out of St. Mary's Hospital and talked calmly to a group of reporters following the royal baby's birth, saying, "I'm honestly relieved and delighted. It's marvelous," when asked how he felt.

"It's rather a grown-up thing, I've found," he continued. "It's rather a shock to my system."

While he and Diana were still deciding on a name for their son at the time, he told the crowd their little one was in "marvelous form," with "fair, sort of blondish" hair.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge left Middleton's family home in Bucklebury today, and while it's believed the duo is heading back to London, there's been no sign yet of them at St. Mary's hospital, where Middleton is expected to deliver the couple's first child together (and don't be fooled by those of lookalike pranksters earlier today).
