Jake Gyllenhaal has been spotted engagement ring shopping. The "Brokeback Mountain" actor spent four hours in a New York jewelry shop last week in search of the perfect band to propose to his girlfriend Reese Witherspoon.

A source said: "Jake spent most of his time in the room where they keep the rings. He looked really serious and was taking his time."

Reese Witherspoon used to dare her brother to touch dead, skinned raccoons in their freezer.

The 'Four Christmases' actress was terrified of the dead animals her doctor father sometimes received as payment from his Tennessee patients, but the animal corpses inspired a popular game between her and sibling John.

Reese Witherspoon only buys her children "one or two" Christmas presents.

The "Four Christmases" star - who has nine-year-old Ava and five-year-old Deacon with ex-husband Ryan Phillippe - admits she limits the amount of gifts her family receive on the festive holiday because she doesn't want them to be spoiled.

Reese Witherspoon is an "incredible trampolinist." The "Four Christmases" star has revealed the secret talent which she has spent hours developing since she was a child.

She said: "I'm an incredible trampolinist. I had one in my back garden when I was a kid and I used to be on it for like three hours a day."
