Emily Berrington’s embarrassing Inbetweeners role


Emily Berrington is embarrassed about her parents seeing 'The Inbetweeners 2'.
The 27-year-old actress stars in the comedy sequel - which sees four friends, played by James Buckley, Simon Bird, Joe Thomas and Blake Harrison, go backpacking in Australia - and though she won't stop her family tuning in, she thinks they need to be warned about the raunchy humour.
She said: "I don't want to give away any good gags but there's a scene with some drunk snogging that I remember thinking as we filmed it, 'I look forward to Mum and Dad having to watch this.'
"I'm sure I'll be embarrassed for some of it, but my family are so excited about seeing the film, I couldn't possibly deny them that chance. I think they'll be cool about it, but maybe I should warn them about a few things first."
Emily admits she was often "amazed" they got any filming done because the guys are so fond of practical jokes.
She added to LOOK magazine: "Being a part of 'The Inbetweeners' feels exactly like watching it - all the practical jokes and the way the boys take the p**s out of each other is real. No joke is off limits as long as it's funny so the boundaries get pushed very far.
"They were easily as funny as I expected and there were days where I was amazed we managed to film anything at all. They make it their mission to put each other off.
"One of the longest-running gags was that every time action was called, James would fart. So obviously everyone would start laughing, but if you're trapped in a little tepee with a Buckley fart, you get a bit cross too."

Mel B hands rude drawings to Louis Walsh


Mel B gives rude drawings to Louis Walsh during filming for 'The X Factor'.
The Spice Girls star - who has joined the ITV talent show as the fourth judge - has admitted she's missing her husband Stephen Belafonte, who lives in Australia, so much that she's been drawing erotic pictures of his manhood and passing them to fellow judge Louis, 61.
The 39-year-old star explained: "I do like to pass dirty notes to Louis. I miss my husband so much I like drawing pictures of willies, as you do.
"I do doodle a lot on Louis' notepad especially. I also draw boobs a lot."
Mel has joined Louis and returning judges Simon Cowell and Cheryl Cole on the show after the departure of Gary Barlow, Nicole Scherzinger and Sharon Osbourne, and host Dermot O'Leary has confessed she's proving a bit too rude for what's meant to be a family-friendly show.
He told the Daily Star Sunday: "Mel is like a younger Sharon Osbourne in many ways. She's a ball-breaker who you can't really control.
"I have to turn down the volume on the monitor when she speaks in between the acts because it's all pretty fruity. I can't say what she says because it's all unprintable."
Quizzed on whether she was aware of her behaviour, Mel added: "I forget sometimes that I'm mic'd up so I start sharing things with Louis and Simon and I start free-flowing and forget where I am."

Brooke Vincent just friends with Niall Horan


'Coronation Street' star Brooke Vincent claims she and Niall Horan are just friends.
The 22-year-old actress - who has played Sophie Webster on the ITV soap since 2004 - has been linked to the One Direction hunk, who's admitted he has a crush on her, but insists they're just friends, despite her splitting from her Chelsea footballer boyfriend Josh McEachran earlier this year.
She explained: "We [her and Josh] are still friends but that's basically it. Now I'm single again there's lots of speculation about who I'm dating and what's going on.
"Niall has been my friend since he started on 'The X Factor' but because I'm single and he said he fancies me it's assumed we'll get together.
"I've been to One Direction concerts loads of times - with Josh, my cousins, my sister - because he's a mate. But nothing has happened between us."
The brunette beauty - whose 'Coronation Street' character is in a same-sex relationship with Maddie Heath (Amy Kelly) - also admitted she's not even sure how to get a boyfriend, because she finds meeting new people difficult.
Brooke told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "I'm quite comfortable being single and being myself and doing what I do. I don't really need someone else there to make myself feel better.
"And to be honest. I don't get how I've had a boyfriend at all because I hate that 'getting to know you' stage. I don't play games and I don't do dating. Some girls have a plan, they will find a guy they like and text them this, that or whatever.
"But I never do that kind of thing. That's not really me."

Kendall Jenner leaves party with Justin Bieber?


Kendall Jenner reportedly left a party holding hands with Justin Bieber.
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star - who is the half sister of Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian - was spotted leaving the 40th birthday party of Givenchy fashion legend Riccardo Tisco in Ibiza with the 'Baby' hitmaker.
A source revealed: "Kendall and Justin were inseparable for most of the night. Justin has always been good friends with the Kardashians, so he and Kendall go way back.
"There have been rumours about them dating before and it was even suggested that Kendall played a part in his break-up with Selena Gomez."
Justin, 20 - who was partying with stars including Kate Moss, P Diddy, Jared Leto and Kanye West at the bash - is said to have had his eyes on the 18-year-old model all night.
The source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "As soon as Justin arrived he made a beeline for Kendall the moment he spotted her.
"They were seriously flirting and kept going in and out of a photobooth together. There was lots of laughing and teasing and they were taking endless selfies.
"After partying for about two hours they quietly slipped out of the party together and were seen holding hands."
Earlier in the night Justin had posted an image of himself with his arms around Kendall's mum Kris Jenner's waist and teased her and her 16-year-old sister Kylie with the caption.
He wrote: "@kendalljenner @kyliejenner who's your daddy (sic)."
Meanwhile, the controversial star is also reported to have hooked up with Playboy Playmate Alyssa Acre and Victoria's Secret model Shanina Shaik during his holiday on the Spanish island, while Kendall has previously been linked with One Direction hunk Harry Styles.

Beyonce and Jay Z sleeping in separate hotels?


Beyoncé and Jay Z are reportedly staying in different hotels on tour.
The couple - who got married in 2008 and have been plagued by rumours of cheating since footage of Beyoncé's sister Solange attacking Jay in an elevator after the Met Gala in May was leaked - are said to be sleeping in separate rooms in separate hotels while on their 'On The Run' joint tour.
A source explained: "They're not just staying in different hotel rooms, but they have booked separate hotels, and they arrive separately to each show."
Despite managing to play the loving couple while on stage, the pair - who are said to be taking part in online counselling sessions via Skype - have reportedly been talking about calling quits on their relationship, and Beyoncé is said to be fed up of Jay trying to control everything.
The source told the New York Post newspaper's PageSix: "They've had discussions lately about the inevitable sit-down interview when they finally do split, and Jay's been adamant that he doesn't want Beyoncé sitting down with Barbara Walters or Oprah Winfrey pretending to be the victim."
An emergency meeting is said to have taken place between the couple and their tour promoters Live Nation, as there are worries they may not be able to complete their remaining concert dates.
The source added: "This may not make it to San Francisco. I'm definitely not sure that they'll make it to Paris."

Justin Bieber’s Miranda Kerr taunt to Orlando Bloom


Justin Bieber reportedly told Orlando Bloom that Miranda Kerr had vowed to "make him a man".
The 'Boyfriend' hitmaker - who was involved in an altercation with the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' actor at a swanky restaurant in Ibiza last week - is said to have taunted him with the claim that his estranged wife had promised to "make him a man".
Rumours of Miranda, 31, cheating on Orlando with Justin, 20, emerged in 2012 after the pair were pictured flirting at a Victoria's Secret fashion show and although the couple - who have four-year-old son Flynn together - have since called time on their relationship, Justin's jibe is said to have prompted Orlando to swing for him.
A source revealed to the Sunday People newspaper: "Orlando had heard that there had been some flirting going on and he wasn't exactly over the moon about it, in fact he was furious.
"At the time of the split it was certainly one of the motivations. He was, and still is, very cross about all of this.
"He can't believe that someone he regards as a silly little boy has had this impact on his relationship. He is absolutely fuming."
Orlando, 37, is reported to have jumped over a sofa to try and punch Justin after hearing his alleged comment, while his pals including Leonardo DiCaprio cheered him on.

Jake Bugg has no home


Jake Bugg lives on a tourbus.
The 'Lightning Bolt' hitmaker admits he constantly feels like he is on tour as he has no place to call home and even stays in hotels when he isn't working.
He said: "I do have a tourbus, so that's kind of home, so I'm not homeless. I live on a tourbus. I'm probably a gypsy, not homeless.
"I love the tourbus and I love being on the road, but at the same time when you finish a tour, all the band and everybody goes home... But for me, I stay in hotels so it feels to me that I'm on a constant tour."
However, the 20-year-old musician insists he doesn't mind his rootless life.
He added: "I might as well do it now while I'm at my age. It's what I wanted to do."
Despite his chart success, Jake insists he is "just a normal guy".
He told NME magazine: "I'm just a normal 20-year-old guy who writes a few songs.
"People like listening to them. That's all there is to it.
"It doesn't make me any more special. I'm just a normal guy."

Chris Pratt’s Guardians of the Galaxy body concerns


Chris Pratt worried his modest physique might have stopped him from securing a role in 'Guardians of the Galaxy'.
The 35-year-old star admitted he was confident his acting talents were suitable to the role of Peter Quill, aka Sky Lord, but feared that his unremarkable build may stop him from getting the part.
Speaking at a press conference in London to promote the film, he said: "I think that if I could be believed physically as the character, [the role] would be mine. James [Gunn, the director] and I gelled in a nice way, it seemed almost immediately like my spirit was right for this character."
Pratt underwent a gruelling fitness regime to get himself in shape for the role and now looks every inch a superhero.
He added: I just didn't look the part. I wasn't walking around in the right vehicle yet.
"So I knew if I could convince them to take a chance on me and give me enough time, I could make the change required to look like the part."
'Guardians of the Galaxy' is out now in UK cinemas.

Gwyneth Paltrow wants rid of wrinkles


Gwyneth Paltrow wishes she could get rid of her wrinkles.
The 41-year-old actress - who has children Apple, 10, and Moses, eight, with estranged husband Chris Martin - is unhappy with the ageing damage the sun has caused to her skin but doesn't want to have obvious surgery to erase the fine lines.
She said: "I think my best feature is my legs. But if I could change anything I wish I could get wrinkles and sun damage reversed without looking like I'd done anything. So for now, I'll just stick with my wrinkles and sun damage."
Gwyneth did admit to using Thermage laser treatment - a non-surgical procedure which promises to get ride of the dreaded "'turkey neck', loose jowls, sagging skin" - to target the signs of aging, however, the 'Iron Man' star warned that the process can be painful.
She explained: "It's non-invasive but it's quite painful, like having your face smacked with a rubber band that has an electric shock in it. But it works."
The active actress also credited her exercise regime and her beauty routine for her spot-free skin and generally improving the overall appearance of her face.
Gwyneth added to Britain's HELLO! magazine: "I think it's a lot about exercise, I really do. I do an hour of cardiovascular activity five days a week and I think that sweating is detoxifying and is really good for skin elasticity.
"I always take my make-up off before bed - always. I always cleanse and exfoliate when I've been wearing make-up.
"I didn't really start looking after my skin until I was 39. Now I use a hot cloth cleanser and Clarisonic Mia and I've seen a real difference in my skin. I apply Restorsea moisturiser, plus a little cream blusher and mascara, and then I'm ready."


Sandra Bullock lost bag


Sandra Bullock was horrified when her bag went missing on a recent night out.
The 50-year-old actress reportedly started cursing and screaming when she realised her clutch bag had disappeared from her table while dining in West Hollywood.
A source said: "She screamed, 'Where's my purse?' and screamed 'Oh f**k, what did I do with my purse?'
"Sandra's dinner guests went into a tizzy and immediately started searching the booth they were sitting in and on the floor underneath it.
"The manager came running in and joined them in the search as he tried to calm the distraught star."
However, the whole debacle was quickly smoothed over when an apologetic staff member realised he had mistakenly taken the tiny clutch from the table as he cleared it.
The witness explained: "The guy explained that when he cleared the table and removed the soiled tablecloth he hadn't seen the tiny cocktail purse so it got rolled up and thrown into the dirty linen basket."
And Sandra was so relieved that she even tipped him.
The source told National Enquirer magazine: "Sandra incredibly relieved, told the frazzled busboy not to worry about it - then she opened her bag, retrieved two $20 bills and tipped him."

Emily MacDonagh wants royal wedding dress


Emily MacDonagh wants to marry Peter Andre in a dress like Duchess Catherine's.
The Scottish medical student is preparing to tie the knot with the 'Mysterious Girl' singer and hopes to look as "classy and elegant" as the duchess - who was known as Kate Middleton before her marriage to Prince William - did on her wedding day.
She shared: "I do love Kate Middleton's dress, I really do. I just love how she looked so elegant and classy, that would be my favourite style"
Emily - who hasn't yet set a date for her wedding - is now gearing up to return to her studies in September after putting them on hold following the birth of daughter Amelia six months ago, and she admits she is feeling apprehensive.
She told Britain's OK! magazine: "I'm nervous about getting back into it again and concentrating and obviously not being with [Amelia] all day long. But my mum and dad will be there to support me so it will be fine."

Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry get drunk together


Paul Hollywood gets drunk with Mary Berry.
'The Great British Bake Off' star has revealed he often goes out drinking with his fellow judge, Mary, 79, after a long day of filming the hit BBC cooking show.
He told new! magazine: "When we do 'Bake Off' it's so chilled. It's quite relaxing. It is long hours and a very long day but we go out and get drunk together."
However, the 48-year-old star insists they doesn't socialise with the contestants outside of filming to avoid favouritism.
But the pair do send the show's co-hosts Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins to to provide words of support to the hopefuls.
He explained: "We stay in different hotels. I'm there to judge what is on the plate. I'm not there to chat.
"I'm constructive. I will tell them how to do it and make it if I feel it could have been done better."
Mary added: "There's no favouritism. We're are there to judge. If a baker is having problems, we'll sometimes send Mel and Sue over to comfort them. We can't tell them what to do."
