Kelly Brook lashes out at ‘stupid’ exes


Kelly Brook has wasted time on "stupid boys".
The glamour model - who is engaged to David McIntosh - has hit out at her former lovers, including Danny Cipriani, and insisted the realisation about the men from her past was what prompted her to write her memoir 'Close Up'.
She told the Daily Mail Weekend magazine: "Oh, I've wasted so much time with stupid boy and doing stupid things, there's been so much written about me, I thought it's about time I closed the door on all those chapters.
"I've been so defined by those relationships and things that have happened, I wanted to put my point of view across. That way I can move on.
"I wanted people to understand what happened, and I'm not a victim. It's just the nature of things. If you dance with the Devil, you get burnt."
Kelly claimed Danny was a needy man who craved "constant attention", and insisted she then realised "all these men" were "spineless".
She added: "He needs constant attention from any woman at any time and if you're not going to give it to him there's a whole life of women who are ready to.
"From the attention of his own mother to his friend's mother to glamour models. It's endless. I started to think all these men are absolutely spineless."

Gary Busey won Celebrity Big Brother


Gary Busey has won 'Celebrity Big Brother'.
The 70-year-old actor - who was the favourite to win the show - beat boxing star Audley Harrison, despite causing controversy amongst his fellow housemates.
Addressing the crowd as he exited the house, Gary said: "I can't tell you this feeling of enlightenment and loving love from Britain and all the housemates that I lived with and everyone here.
"I know why the word 'Great' is front of Britain."
In his interview with Emma Willis, he added: "It's a feeling of surprise and honour and a tribute to my love for this country."
Meanwhile, Gary - who is the first American winner of the show - admitted he had no idea what the house would be like.
He said: "I saw the housemates and it was like: 'Wow this is great'. I had no idea what I would be up against and people challenging me.
"When you've been around the sun 70 times ... you've got a new knowledge of life and you've got a new knowledge of humour and you learn to respect the youth ... That's life, that's evolution, that's growing up. I didn't know what to expect."
Gary - who has starred in Hollywood hits such as 'Lethal Weapon' and 'Point Break' - revealed the show had changed him as a person.
He explained: "When I go back home, I'm a changed man. I will be with my sweetheart wife Steffanie everywhere she goes. I will read my son Luke books every night to go to sleep ... it's great."

Louis Smith explicit video reportedly sold online


An explicit video by Louis Smith has reportedly been sold to a celebrity sex-tape company.
The 'Tumble' judge is said to have appeared in the racy clip - made on Skype - three years ago and it is "terrible timing" for the star, who is keen to forge a TV career for himself.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "It's terrible timing for Louis. He's desperate for a TV career but 'Tumble' is aimed at a family audience."
The 25-year-old gymnast - who won a silver medal at the London 2012 Olympic Games - reportedly appears in the video to do a routine before stripping, talking about sex and performing a solo act.
It is said the raunchy clip was made with a model, who has now sold it to the Celebrity Busted web firm, with sources claiming it could "damage" his reputation.
An insider added: "It's unfair this could damage him all these years on."
Louis recently admitted he hoped 'Tumble' would show gymnasts and other athletes in a more positive light, insisting they "can have a laugh".
He said: "It's frustrating when you've got a different side to you and people always see you doing the same interviews and being asked the same questions, 'How do you feel about the Olympics?' How's training going?'
"You feel like you've been moulded into this respectable kind of person. This is an opportunity to show the other side of sportsmen. We can have a laugh and enjoy ourselves too."

Sheridan Smith loved becoming a pop star for Cilla role


Sheridan Smith says playing Cilla Black is the closest she'll get "to being a pop star".
The actress is starring as the iconic singer and TV star in ITV's new series 'Cilla', and getting to sing her songs at the legendary Cavern Club in Liverpool - as well as record them at the Abbey Road studio in London - was an amazing experience.
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper's We Love TV magazine: "Oh my God, that was such a privilege.
"Performing the rock 'n' roll numbers at the Cavern was also brilliant fun.
"All these extras were screaming at me while I was on stage. It's the closest I'll get to being a pop star."
Meanwhile Sheridan, 33, admitted it was also a chance to experience the 1960s - an era she was born too late to enjoy.
She explained: "This show is about Cilla and capturing the buzz of the Merseybeat era.
"There's never going to be a time like that again. I wish I was around in that era, but playing Cilla is the next best thing."

Foo Fighters’ ‘psychic’ new album


Foo Fighters new album "takes a left turn" according to Nate Mendel.
The bassist - who joins lead singer Dave Grohl, Taylor Hawkins, Chris Shiflett, Pat Smear and keyboardist Rami Jaffee - has revealed that the band's new album, 'Sonic Highways' is less traditional than their other records.
Nate explained: "They're fairly straight forward Foo Fighters songs and almost every one of them takes a left turn and goes off on some psychic odyssey with the guest musician in the middle.
"Sometimes there's an awkward transition back into the song. You catch on with a few of them, where we go, 'Oh f**k!' and we're back into the final chorus. There are a few elements that are looser than traditional Foo Fighters moments."
Nate also hinted that Foo Fighters were thinking about doing something special for their fans to celebrate being together for two decades.
He added to NME magazine: "We're planning on doing a pretty unique and cool idea for our 20th anniversary. It's something that'll be ****ing cool - plus all of the usual things like festivals."

Susan Sarandon’s granddaughter pride


Susan Sarandon says watching her daughter give birth to her granddaughter made her more pride than anything she has achieved in her acting career.
The 67-year-old star helped Eva Amurri Martino, who is married to NBC sports analyst Kyle Martino, deliver her first child, Marlowe, into the world at her home in Los Angeles last month, and admits the experience was overwhelming.
The 'Tammy' actress said: "I have loved working, playing and travelling with my daughter - but nothing prepared me for watching her birth Marlowe. She was a warrior, and I'm so proud to be her mother and to be a part of that beautiful new child."
Eva revealed her famous mother hopped on a plane to LA from New York City, as soon as she told her she thought she was going into labour 11 days early.
She said: "I let her know that I wasn't sure if this was it, but I just had a feeling. She hopped on a plane and got there as soon as possible."
The 29-year-old actress is still adjusting to the new addition to her family.
She told PEOPLE magazine: "Motherhood is such a learning curve. Each day is a new day, and it takes a while to get used to it."
But she added: "I would do anything for her. I really wanted my life to be about something bigger than just us, and now it is."

Scarlett Johansson gave birth in NYC

Mila Kunis considering home birth


Mila Kunis is considering a home birth.
The 31-year-old actress, who is expecting her first child with fiancé Ashton Kutcher imminently, is reportedly eager for her labour and delivery to be as relaxed as possible, and is still thinking about getting a doula to help her give birth to their daughter at their $10 million mansion in Beverly Hills.
A source said: "She wants to give birth at home."
The 'Black Swan' star is also eager to give birth naturally.
The insider said: "Mila wants to give their baby the very best, and she thinks that includes an all-natural childbirth.
"She wants there to be as little medical intervention as possible!"
The actress originally wanted Ashton's sister-in-law, who is a trained doula, by her side, but their plan fell through, so she may still consider welcoming her daughter at Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre in Los Angeles, which is just minutes away from her home.
The source added to Life & Style magazine: "Mila had chosen Ashton's brother's wife as a doula, but now they are separated, and she isn't replacing her."

Paul Walker’s daughter pays tribute to her late father


Paul Walker's daughter has paid tribute to her late father.
15-year-old Meadow posted a photo of her as a toddler being held by her dad - who died in a car crash in November last year - on what would have been his 41st birthday.
Alongside the picture, his only child wrote: "Happy birthday. I love you."
Meanwhile, the actor's 'Fast and Furious' co-star Jordan Brewster remembered Paul by posting an image of a sunset.
She captioned it with: "#HappyBirthdayPW, #ROWW. Always in our hearts."

The charity is hoping to raise $1 million (approximately £615,000) in memory of its founder.
Reach Out Worldwide are asking people to upload a photo of a sunrise or sunset to social media and use the hashtag #OneMillionForROWW before making a donation to the charity.
Paul's friend Jesse Brisendine wrote on the online fundraising page: "What Paul was most proud of were: his daughter Meadow and Reach Out World Wide ... I can tell you that Paul's dream for ROWW was that it would continue to grow and continue to be able to help people all over the world long after he was gone.
"I would do anything to bring my friend back, but unfortunately life does not work that way. What I can do though is to help ensure that my friend's dream is realised and thus his legacy lives on forever.
"By donating to ROWW you are not only helping millions of people from all over the world in their times of need, you are also helping to keep Paul's dream alive and ensuring his legacy lives on."

Meanwhile, the singers have defended the song's music video, explaining it is meant to be "classy" and "editorial".
Iggy explained: "I think it's a little bit more kind of upscale and almost like editorial."
Jennifer added: "That was kind of like the buzzword. We wanted it to look like a beautiful kind of magazine cover. Keep it very beautiful and sexy but classy.
"Obviously the song's name is 'Booty' so we're gonna have fun with it and not take it too seriously."
The 24-year-old rapper also admitted she was more than happy to work with the 'On The Floor' hitmaker and that Jennifer had given her some "good advice".
