Jesse Tyler Ferguson celebrates 1 year wedding anniversary by eating


Jesse Tyler Ferguson and his husband celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary by eating "a lot" of food.
The 'Modern Family' star and his spouse Justin Mikita - who got married last July - spent their romantic occasion gorging on delicious dinners.
Speaking to PEOPLE.com, Jesse said: "We made a few reservations and we had a chef come over to our house on our actual wedding anniversary and cook us something. So we ate a lot."
The 38-year-old actor admits it doesn't feel like a year ago he tied the knot with his 28-year-old beau as time has just flown by.
He explained: "We can't believe it's already been a year. We do sort of feel like newlyweds."
Despite their new marriage, the couple have already started thinking about expanding their family but insist they're not sure when they'll start the process.
Jesse said: "We are very excited to start a family. We don't have any sort of timeline right now. When you have to look for alternate means, there's a little more planning that has to go into that so who knows. When we start the process it might still be a three-year ordeal. We'll see what happens."

Becca Tobin thanks fans for support after boyfriend’s death


Becca Tobin has thanked her fans for their "love and support" following her boyfriend's sudden death.
The 'Glee' actress has spoken publicly for the first time since her beau Matt Bendik was found dead in his hotel room at Philadelphia's Hotel Monaco last month.
She posted a picture of her cuddling up to Matt on her Instagram account today (02.08.14), which she accompanied with the caption: "Thank you all for he love and support. Matt was the most extraordinary man I knew and he will live in my heart forever."
Matt's cause of death is currently unknown, but an incident report taken by a detective at the scene stated no drugs, drug paraphernalia, alcohol, medication or weapons were located in his hotel room, and his body did not appear to have suffered any physical harm.
Becca - who plays Kitty Wilde in the musical TV series - had joined her beau on the business trip, but it is currently unclear where she was when the 35-year-old nightclub owner's body was found by a maid.
Matt's death happened just before the first anniversary of Cory Monteith's death, who died from a heroin and alcohol overdose in Vancouver, Canada, last June.
Matt ran several major clubs around the US and was Director of Operations at DBA Nightclub in Los Angeles.
The nightspot posted a tribute to Matt outside the venue following his death, with a board reading: "We love you Matt."

Mike Smith has died aged 59


Mike Smith has died aged 59.
The former BBC Radio 1 DJ passed away in hospital on Friday (01.08.14) after suffering from complications following major heart surgery, his aerial filming company, Flying TV, has confirmed.
Sarah Greene, his wife of 25 years, has thanked the hospital staff who treated her husband for their care and compassion, and has now asked that her family and friends be allowed to grieve in peace.
A Flying TV spokesman added: "Mike founded Flying TV ten years ago and the company says his legacy will be FTV continuing to go from strength to strength."
Noel Edmonds, who worked with Mike on the 'Late, Late Breakfast Show' said in a statement: "I am totally stunned and heartbroken for Sarah and his family.
"He was so much more than simply a presenter. Mike was that rare individual - the consummate broadcaster in an era when professionalism, dedication and hard work were truly valued."
Aled Jones took to his Twitter account this evening to pay tribute to Mike, tweeting: "So shocked and very sad to hear of the passing of Mike Smith - a really fantastic guy. Love and thoughts to Sarah x (sic)."
While, 'This Morning' host Phillip Schofield posted: "There are no words. My wonderful, bright, funny thoughtful friend Mike Smith has passed away. @RealSarahGreene I'm so so sorry my darling."
Mike spent six years at BBC Radio 1 between 1982 and 1988, and during that time was also a presenter on 'Top of the Pops' and hosted 'Live Aid.'

Khloé Kardashian concerned about French Montana’s partying


Khloé Kardashian is reportedly worried about French Montana's regular partying.
The 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star, 30, is concerned that her boyfriend's social life is starting to threaten their four-month relationship.
A source told Us Weekly magazine: "She's starting to wake up [to the situation]"
The brunette beauty's mother Kris Jenner, 58, is also angered by the 29-year-old rapper's alleged behaviour and thinks Khloé - who filed for divorce from her husband of four years Lamar Odom in December amid rumours he cheated on her and had an addiction to cocaine - will be better off staying single for a while.
The source explained: "[Kris] thinks [Khloé] needs to be single because she worries that Khloé just got out of a marriage."
However, the Khloé, who began dating French in April after being introduced through mutual friend Diddy - recently defended her new relationship.
She said previously: "People are gonna comment no matter what. If I dated the most clean-cut, perfect guy they're gonna comment. So if I'm having fun and dating this kid...they're not f**king him, so why should they care?"
The stunning star also claimed there's a softer side to her beau that no-one has seen before.
She said: "He puts out more of the tough exterior, that's who he is. But there's also a different side of him. He could be a softie sometimes. [But] I've learned from my past that you've gotta keep some things more private and a little more close to your heart."

Justin Bieber bans Orlando Bloom from Ibiza party


Justin Bieber reportedly banned Orlando Bloom from a star-studded party in Ibiza last night (01.08.14).
The 37-year-old hunk was allegedly refused entry into the birthday bash for Givenchy fashion designer Riccardo Tisci after the 20-year-old singer ordered his entourage to stop him from entering the celebration.
An insider told the New York Post's Page Six column: "Bloom was on the way as a late arrival, but when he got to the starry bash, Bieber, who was already inside, had his entourage insist organisers keep Bloom out."
The 'Baby' hitmaker then continued to party inside the Spanish venue along with Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, Kendall Jenner, Jared Leto and Kate Moss, while Orlando was forced to leave the area.
The snub follows an altercation involving the 'Lord of the Rings' actor and Justin at the upmarket eatery Cipriani earlier this week.
Orlando reportedly swung a punch at the troubled star - who was rumoured to have slept with his then-wife Miranda Kerr almost two years ago - after Justin reportedly told him, "Say hi to Miranda for me."
Miranda's lawyer previously insisted that rumours she cheated on Orlando, with whom she has three-year-old son Flynn, with Justin after the Victoria's Secret fashion show in 2012 were "false and defamatory."

Nick Jonas was called the Hulk after weight gain


Nick Jonas' brothers kept calling him the "Hulk" after he gained 15 lbs.
The 21-year-old hunk piled on the pounds for his MMA fighter role in the new drama 'Kingdom' and he admits his siblings Kevin, 26, Joe, 24, and Frankie, 13, kept comparing him to the green fictional superhero.
Speaking to E! News, he said: "I gained about 15 pounds of muscle for the role ... I really wanted to look like an animal who internalises a lot, but when he's in the cage and he's fighting that's when you see this kind of animalistic mentality that he has.
"[My brothers] were calling me the Hulk and they were poking fun at me a little bit."
Nick has now lost over half of the weight he gained for the part, but is still working out a few times a week.
He explained: "The bulky muscle guy was probably good for a month or two, but I feel better where I'm at now. I started to include more fun activities instead of just going to the gym all the time.
"So it's a ton of different sports that I play and traditional workout stuff. I work out with a great trainer and he has a great gym. We do sort of circuit training and strength and conditioning."
Nick, who was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes nine years ago, has also realised the importance of nutrition.
He added: "I really got into living a really healthy lifestyle and physical fitness last year.
"I saw pretty quickly how it improved my health and the diabetes. I've stuck with it."

Jason Derulo knew Jordin Sparks was The One ‘early on’


Jason Derulo knew Jordin Sparks was The One "pretty early on" in their relationship.
The 'Talk Dirty' hitmaker was determined to have the 24-year-old singer romantically involved in his life long-term after he broke one of his vertebrae in 2012.
Asked when he realised she was his match, he replied: "I knew that pretty early on. I felt that when I was in the hospital with my neck injury. I felt different ... I felt like I needed her in my world."
The loved-up couple, who have been dating for two years, admits it can be hard having a relationship in the public eye but insists they manage it well.
He explained to E! News: "You know, of course we have our problems just like anybody else. But our relationship is a positive one and that's good for people to see in today's entertainment industry."
The hunk believes the secret to their successful romance is their love of food and opposite personalities, which makes their relationship "fun."
He said: "We just try to do different things. We both love food. We're opposites...so we bring different things to the table and that keeps things really fun because her interests are not necessarily my interests."

Orlando Bloom and Nina Dobrev spotted kissing at party?


Orlando Bloom and Nina Dobrev were spotted allegedly kissing at Comic-Con last week.
The 37-year-old hunk reportedly locked lips with the 'Vampire Diaries' actress, 25, at Zachary Levi's Nerd HQ party in San Diego, California, on July 25.
An onlooker claimed the pair couldn't keep their hands off one another and "were making out for 20 minutes."
While another added that they were dancing provocatively up against each other on the dance floor.
However, their closeness wasn't a complete surprise to friends as the pair - who were spotted holding hands in January - have known each other for while after being introduced through their mutual manager Scott Wexler.
The source explained: "Nina has known Orlando for a few years now. She's been out with him in social settings with mutual friends. She's always thought he was an attractive man."
Despite the obvious chemistry between the two, it seems they're not looking for anything serious as of yet and are just enjoying their friendship for the time being.
A source close to Nina said: "She's single and having fun!"
Orlando split from his wife of three years Miranda Kerr - with whom he has three-year-old son Flynn - in October last year, while Nina went through two break-ups in 2013.

Jemima Khan gives Zayn Malik love advice


Russell Brand's girlfriend has been giving Zayn Malik love advice.
Jemima Khan, 40, struck up a friendship with the One Direction hunk, 21 - who is engaged to Perrie Edwards - after bonding during a night out at London's Chiltern Firehouse with Naughty Boy last week.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Jemima took the boys under her wind and started to dish out some advice. She started warning them about the celebrity circuit and then switched their chat to ladies.
"She told Zayn and Naughty boy - whose real name is Shahid Khan - that they should find themselves a good wife and settle down and avoid getting involved with any gold diggers. It was obviously all tongue-in-cheek as Zayn is loved up with Perrie."
However, the trio's new friendship has come as a shock to onlookers as the posh socialite - who has been dating the comedian since last September - is usually spotted mixing with a "glamorous circle" of pals.
The source explained: "Jemima normally mixes in very glamorous circles so you wouldn't have thought she'd have much in common with Zayn or Shahid but they're all Muslim and spent a lot of time chatting about religion and relationships.
"Shahid and Jemima had become good pals through doing charity work together. He introduced Zayn into the mix after they spent lots of time together working on new One Direction material."

Lady Gaga has ‘special bond’ with dog


Lady Gaga shares a "special bond" with her dog.
The 'Applause' hitmaker admits she and her French bulldog Asia are able to communicate with each other through the use of various body parts.
Speaking in the September issue of Harper's Bazaar magazine, she told Karl Lagerfeld: "Asia and I have a very special bond. She also talks a lot with her big, beautiful eyes. Her ears are especially large for a Frenchie, and I can tell she's comfy at home with Mommy because her ears are down.
"Asia also loves belly rubs, from everyone, and she lies on her back all the time to let me know!"
The 28-year-old singer admits her four-legged friend, who she adopted in March, has become her "inspiration" in life, particularly with her music.
She explained: "Asia is my inspiration for many things. She has really shown me the importance of living in the moment. If I don't, I'll miss a precious look on her face!
"She is a very romantic and loving animal, and this sort of poetry is what art is all about, I think. Interaction. She loves to sit with me when I record jazz. She never barks or makes noise; she just looks at me with her big ears."

Robert Pattinson has ‘psychotic’ house


Robert Pattinson thinks his house is a bit "psychotic."
The 'Twilight' hunk is currently renting a property on Mulholland Drive in California, but he admits the home doesn't represent his personality in any way and he tends to stick to spending time in just one room.
Speaking to the UK's Esquire magazine, he said: "My house doesn't reflect my personality. There's, like, no furniture! It looks a bit psychotic. [The house is] weird and a bit cabin-fevery ... but I spend most of my time in one room anyway."
Prior to renting, the 28-year-old star owned a mansion in Griffith Park in Los Angeles, but he sold it for $6.37 million earlier this year because he couldn't deal with the constant paparazzi standing outside his gate.
He explained: "They photographed anyone who came up to the gate, anyone who rang the bell, and they followed any car that came in and out. I used to dress up my assistant as me, and get him to drive off with like five cars following him around for hours."
Robert was initially deliberating returning to the UK following the sale of his home, but he decided against it after realising England wasn't for him anymore.
He said: "My friends are all having kids and stuff, it's a totally different life. And I like people who want to actually make things and do stuff. In England, it's so difficult that most people just give up."

Jarvis Cocker: Schoolmates’ respect meant more


Jarvis Cocker says earning "grudging respect" from the "hard" kids at his school meant more than selling records.
The Pulp frontman admits he has never lost the desire to impress his childhood peers, and was relieved to encounter some recently and come out of the encounter unscathed.
He said: "In some ways you never lose that thing of wanting to impress the hard kids in school.
"I went to a funeral in a rough pub where I grew up, and the worst of the hard kids at school were there and it was like a big achievement that I didn't get smacked.
"They said they recognised me and gave me a grudging respect and that meant an awful lot, probably more than selling a lot of records - the fact that I didn't get my head kicked in."
Though Pulp's iconic album 'Different Class' celebrates its 20 year anniversary next year, the 50-year-old singer insists there are no plans to mark the occasion as he would rather perform with the band only when it feels "right".
He told Britain's OK! magazine: "We've never planned anything out, we seldom talk to each other and I think that's good.
"If we'd been clever and were thinking of marketing then we could have thought, 'It's 20 years since 'Different Class' came out next year' and to get back together then, but that would just be boring.
"I think it's better to get together when it feels like the right thing to do, rather than looking at a calendar. I just like to be vague."
