Brad Pitt owes George Clooney a gift


Brad Pitt still "owes" George Clooney a wedding gift.
The 'Fury' actor missed his close friend's recent wedding in Venice because he and spouse Angelina Jolie were shooting their new movie 'By The Sea', and he admits he still needs to make things up to his pal by sending a present for the 'Monuments Men' star and his new wife Amal.
Asked why he wasn't at the wedding, he told 'Access Hollywood': "We were filming in Malta.
"[Did I send a gift?] I still owe him something."
In 'Fury', Brad plays tank commander Wardaddy and admits spending his days in the huge military vehicle wasn't a very pleasant experience.
He told USA Today newspaper: "I'd get in the morning, not get out till wrap. Just send lunch up there.
"It's just not made for man. There's nothing ergonomical in a tank."
However, after a few days on set, the 50-year-old star was able to find a "comfort spot" inside the tank.
He explained: "But after a few days, you just find your little comfort spot. Right between the bolt and the turret ring, you've got this one little place to put your head, and this one little spot where your coffee won't spill."

Kelly Osbourne to bankroll parents’ retirement


Kelly Osbourne wants to earn enough money to make sure her parents don't have to work again.
The 29-year-old star insists her "shopaholic" mother Sharon, 62, and 65-year-old father Ozzy Osbourne - who are estimated to be worth £130 million - have had to cope with "too much s**t" to still have work late into their lives, so she has set her sights on bankrolling their retirement.
She said: "My dream is to make enough money doing what I love so that my parents never have to work again and I can look after them.
"They've been through too much s**t, it's enough already."
Kelly - who was recently left devastated when her 'Fashion Police' co-host Joan Rivers died aged 81 - joked her dad will be "with a Zimmer frame still on stage" if he can so she wants him to quit singing live.
The TV presenter paid tribute to her parents for giving her "so much" throughout her life and hopes they will go travelling around the world when they finally stop working.
Speaking to Fairfax Media, she added: "They run a huge business and I want eventually for them to be able to be that couple on a yacht travelling the world and not have to worry about anything, because they've given me so much. It's time for us to look after them."
The Osbournes have been through plenty of ups and downs in recent years not least when Jack Osbourne - Kelly's younger brother - was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) two years ago.
What's more, Ozzy nearly died in a quad bike accident in December 2003, and last year Sharon - who he has been married to since 1982 - walked out on him after he started drinking and abusing prescription drugs again.
But the 'Talk' host - who also has 31-year-old daughter Aimee with Ozzy - later took the Black Sabbath frontman back and admitted she only walked out to teach him a lesson and show she wasn't "weak".

Nicole Scherzinger fears for Lewis Hamilton


Nicole Scherzinger fears for her boyfriend Lewis Hamilton's life when he competes in Formula 1 races.
The 36-year-old singer has admitted she often worries about the star's safety when he drives for Mercedes, and she is even more concerned for him after F1 driver Jules Bianchi, 25, was left in a "critical" state following a horrific crash at the Japanese Grand Prix earlier this month.
She told the Daily Star newspaper: "It's worrying and taken everybody aback. It put things into perspective and my prayers are with Jules.
"God bless him. I know Lewis feels the same."
Nicole and Lewis, 29, have been involved in an on/off relationship since 2007 and reconciled earlier this year, but the raven-haired beauty admitted she won't be putting pressure on him to pop the question anytime soon.
She told Metro newspaper: "I don't put any pressure on anything. For me, timing is everything. I have a strong faith. And if you ask if my mom's putting pressure on us to get married, no - because my mom is feeling as strong a faith as me."
The star - who previously dated 'America's Got Talent' host Nick Cannon and was romantically linked to comedian Dane Cook - has poured her heart out about her split from Lewis last year in her latest album 'Big Fat Lie' and admits the album also features tracks about other former lovers.
She added: "I wrote the majority of this album last year when I was going through my break-up. But it's about past relationships as well."

Judy Murray: Andy thinks my tango will be good


Judy Murray's son Andy thinks her 'Strictly Come Dancing' tango will be a success.
The tennis coach is set to perform the South American dance with her professional partner Anton du Beke on this weekend's show and she's revealed her professional tennis player son thinks she'll be great because it involves "angry stomping".
Judy received a text from her youngest son, saying: "U shud b gd at the Tango. Don't u just have to stop about and look angry? (sic)"
She added: "I just laughed when he said that. They [Andy and older brother Jamie] have been following me over the internet as they haven't been in the country."
The 54-year-old sportswoman - who was described by the judges last week as having "rigor mortis" after failing to impress with her quickstep - is desperate to stay in the BBC One dance contest for longer so that her sons can come to a live show.
She told The Sun newspaper: "If I do get through this Saturday [18.10.14], Andy and Jamie will be back in the country and can come and watch.
"That's a goal to stay this weekend. They need to come as it's payback time.
"If I can stay another week, that would be amazing."
Judy also confessed that rather than taking offense from the judge's criticisms, she actually finds their observations hilarious.
Referring to Bruno Tonioli dubbing her "stiffer than Nelson's Column", she added: "I know I am pretty wooden and I know my upper body is very stiff.
"I absolutely love their comments. They are funny and they are true."

Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan find wedding venue


Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan have decided on a wedding venue.
The former 'The Only Way Is Essex' star and 'Coronation Street' actress got engaged over a year ago after less than 12 months of dating and have now found the perfect location for their wedding ceremony, which is set to take place next year.
The couple have chosen to hold their nuptials at the Houghton Hall stately home in Norfolk, which boasts an award-winning five-acre garden, a sculpture park and a deer park.
Mark told The Sun newspaper: "Yes, we are getting married in Norfolk. We just found the venue there and it is so amazing. We booked it straight away."
Michelle - who quit her role as barmaid Tina McIntyre on the ITV soap earlier this year - recently left her native Manchester to move in with Mark in their "dream home", near where his family live in Essex.
Speaking earlier this year, the brunette beauty said: "It's gorgeous. We've been searching for such a long time. We pulled out of two houses because we didn't like one and then another was in the wrong area so it was panic, panic.
"The one day we were driving past this house, and as soon as we walked in we knew. It's a new build. It's my dream home."
Meanwhile, Mark is currently busy competing on celebrity dance contest 'Strictly Come Dancing' while Michelle is set to take on her first acting role since Corrie in the upcoming BBC drama 'Ordinary Lies'.

Amy ChildS ‘lucky’ to be alive after car smash


Amy Childs feels "lucky to be alive" after crashing her car.
The former 'The Only Way Is Essex' star flipped her £140,000 Range Rover Sport as she drove in South Woodford in north-east London at around 10pm last night (15.10.14).
According to MailOnline, the luxury vehicle's roof had collapsed following the smash but Amy, 24, managed to climb out unharmed.
Witnesses at the scene say Amy was quickly attended to by paramedics and appeared "shocked" and "shaken" by the experience.
It is believed the car rolled over after striking a traffic island and colliding with two lampposts.
Metropolitan police were also called to the scene after receiving reports of an "over-turned car".
A spokesman said: "At this early stage it is believed that the vehicle was in collision with a traffic light. There are no reported injuries at this time and enquiries are continuing."
Amy took to Twitter following the crash and thanked fans for their "lovely" messages of support.
She wrote on the social media site: "I am so lucky to be alive thank you to everyone for your lovely messages."
It is thought the car was identified as the reality TV star's after her distinctive license plate 'WE11 JEL', her TOWIE catchphrase, was recognised.

Robert Goodwin: Steven Ugoalah washes in vinegar


The Apprentice's Robert Goodwin says Steven Ugoalah washes in vinegar.
The marketing manager was fired from the BBC One entrepreneurial reality series last night (15.10.14) after going against Lord Alan Sugar's advice by failing to put himself forward for the role of project manager and he's now revealed he clashed with a number of the other candidates.
Robert exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "Steven was annoying. He was very difficult to get on with. He was very difficult to work with professionally but also get on with personally, because obviously you're there in the house with these people outside of the tasks as well.
"So, yeah, he was very annoying. He washed his feet in vinegar every night. I was sharing a room with him and there was one point I said to him, 'Why are you washing your feet in vinegar?' And he turned around and said, 'When you grow up you need to learn to live with people and their habits'.
"I think he was washing his face in vinegar as well, I think he thought it was good for his skin or something. I don't know, absolutely disgusting."
The 25-year-old businessman also had a number of disagreements with pub quiz company director Daniel Lassman, who failed to impress with his sales pitches on the second task.
Robert added: "Daniel tried to clash with me quite a bit but I gave as good as I got. He tried to push my buttons but I completely went back to him and pushed his buttons in the same way. But it was more like brotherly love with Daniel, I think he's a great guy."

Elizabeth Pena dies


Elizabeth Pena has died.
According to her nephew, Marino-Francisco Robles, the 'La Bamba' star passed away aged 55 in Los Angeles on Tuesday (14.10.14) after suffering from a brief illness.
Elizabeth enjoyed a career spanning four decades and following her performances in a New York theatre, landed her first professional role in Leon Ichaso's "El Super' in 1978.
She then went on to star in 'Batteries Not Included', animated series 'American Dad', 'I Married Dora', 'Rush Hour' and Disney-Pixar's 'The Incredibles'.
She also had a recurring guest role on the hit ABC show 'Modern Family' in which she starred as Pilar, Sofia Vergara's character Gloria's mother.
Elizabeth had recently finished filming the action series 'Matador' for the El Rey network - who said they were "deeply saddened" by the loss of the actress.
They said in a statement: "We are deeply saddened by the passing of our friend and colleague, Elizabeth Pena.
"She was a role model, a truly extraordinary performer and an inspiration in every sense of the word. Our thoughts are with Elizabeth's family and friends during this difficult time. She ‎will be deeply missed."
Elizabeth leaves behind her two children and husband Hans Rolla, reports Variety.

Nicole Scherzinger wants Sam Smith collaboration


Nicole Scherzinger wants to work with Sam Smith.
The 'On the Rocks' singer claims she is the 'Stay with Me' singer's "biggest fan" and would love to team up with him in the recording studio.
She said: "I'm his biggest fan as I just connect with him on a really deep level. He's the most genuine person I've met. I'd love to work with him. There aren't many cats like him around."
Several songs on her new album 'Big Fat Lie' were written about her relationship with Lewis Hamilton - who she split from briefly last year - and Nicole insists it is a "true reflection" of her changing feelings.
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "It's a personal album to me.
"I'd say it's a reflection of how I've felt over the past couple of years. Sometimes love makes you feel amazing - it makes you feel like 'I need you and you need me.
"But sometimes it's like my song 'Run', when you have to run from your own fears and somebody that's getting on your nerves."
Nicole found it very theraputic pouring her feelings into song.
She said: "It's been a cathartic experience.
"Sometimes you wonder what you're doing it all for.
"Sometimes you feel so alone. But I've turned to music and I feel like it's taught me a lot."

Ed Sheeran makes London crowd his ‘gospel choir’


Ed Sheeran asked fans to be his "gospel choir" at his sell-out show at The O2 in London on Wednesday night (15.10.14).
The 23-year-old musician orchestrated a mass sing-along during his rendition of 'Give Me Love' getting the right and left sides of the arena to sing different harmonies back to him.
Before playing the spell-binding track, Ed said: "I'm going to need you to be my gospel choir tonight, You up for that? Whatever I tell you to sing, sing it, keep singing."
Ed - stood in front of a giant video screen - opened his set with 'I'm A Mess' before launching into crowd favourite 'Lego House', taken from his debut LP '+', prompting his fans to scream and sing every word with him.
Highlights from his current album 'x' included 'Don't', 'One' and 'Tenerife Sea', although his rendition of the romantic track didn't appear to inspire any marriage proposals like it did at his O2 concert on Monday night (13.10.14).
Ed swapped his trademark acoustic guitar for an electric one for 'Thinking Out Loud' and joked the upgrade was a sign of his growing success.
Making a reference to the song's video, which features him ballroom dancing with a beautiful woman, he said: "Look, I've got an electric guitar, I'm moving up in the world! I released a music video a week ago, you won't see me ballroom dancing tonight, but I encourage you to, even if you've never met the person next to you before."
Ed exited the stage after playing 'I See Fire' - before which he thanked his fans for making their way to see him by "train, tube or car" - but as the screams and shouts of the crowd grew, he came back on, performing rap song 'You Need Me, I Don't Need You' to open his three song encore.
During 'The A Team', he asked "everyone to take out your phones or whatever you have" to illuminate the huge arena in a sea of lights before closing his show and four-night run at The O2 with smash hit single 'Sing'.
Ed next takes his 'x Tour' to the LG Arena in Birmingham on Sunday (19.10.14) and after travelling around the UK he begins the European leg on November 3 at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam.

Ed Sheeran's setlist:
'I'm a Mess'
'Lego House'
'Don't'
'Drunk'
'Take it Back'
