Chatty Ed Sheeran annoys pals


Ed Sheeran has reportedly annoyed his friends by "spilling secrets".
The 23-year-old singer is incredibly open about his life, and though he hasn't shared anything "malicious" about pals including Courteney Cox and Taylor Swift, they are said to be unhappy about his loose-lipped ways.
A source said: "It's getting hugely embarrassing.
"These are all big stars who are used to being surrounded by publicists and lawyers to make sure nothing leaks out without prior approval.
"But Ed keeps going rogue and spilling all kinds of secrets. He's not said anything malicious or done any real harm, but they worry he's a loose cannon and he'll put his foot in it."
'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together' hitmaker Taylor was said to have been unhappy with Ed after he discussed who he would like her to date, while Courteney - who the 'A Team' singer stays with when he is working in the US - made her pal feel like a "scolded schoolboy" when she asked him not to talk about her relationship with Snow Patrol rocker Johnny McDaid.
The source added to the Daily Star newspaper: "[Taylor] was annoyed with Ed when he said in a recent interview how she should date Orlando Bloom - especially as she'd admitted in private how she had the hots for him.
"And Courteney had a quiet word with Ed earlier this month, asking him to stop talking so openly about her rom­ance with Johnny McDaid.
"Poor Ed felt terrible - like he was a scolded schoolboy.
"Now he's hoping he doesn't get a bad reputation for not being trustworthy.
"He is going to try and be more careful in interviews."

Simon Cowell celebrates girlfriend’s birthday


Simon Cowell splashed out on jewellery for his girlfriend's birthday.
The 'X Factor' star - who has five-month-old son Eric with Lauren Silverman - treated the US socialite to an expensive gift before enjoying some family time to mark her turning 37 on Saturday (26.07.14).
A source said: "It was a happy, relaxing day. Everything with them is great."
During the evening, Simon, 54, threw a small dinner party for Lauren at upscale Chinese restaurant Red Stixs in the Hamptons and their entire table sang 'Happy Birthday' as the brunette beauty was presented with a cake.
And it seems the eatery is a big hit with the couple, who have been enjoying a vacation in the New York resort.
A source told E! News: "They've been there a lot this summer. They seem to really love it."
And the pair are currently said to be planning another holiday with Eric.
An insider said: "It will be on a boat. Everyone's really looking forward to it."
The music mogul recently tweeted about how much he was enjoying spending time in the Hamptons.
He wrote: "Back to London in a week. Have loved the Hamptons. A very special place."
Simon also shared a number of pictures of his dogs Squiddly and Diddly playing in the sand.

OITNB wins big at Young Hollywood Awards

Piper Perabo weds


Piper Perabo has gotten married.
The 37-year-old actress tied the knot with director-and-producer Stephen Kay in New York City on Saturday (26.07.14), after getting engaged in September.
The 'Covert Affairs' star - who met her new spouse on the set of the TV show - donned an unusual textured metallic gown accessorised with a pale yellow veil and a bouquet of roses, while her groom wore a casual loose-fitting blue suit and gray fedora.
Following their wedding ceremony, the low-key couple walked to a nearby restaurant with their loved ones and a New Orleans-style band in tow.
The fiercely-private actress hasn't spoken much about her relationship with Stephen, but recently spoke of her love of "tidy and simple" men.
She said: "Cocktails like the Manhattan are similar to men that I like: really strong, sort of tidy, simple, beautiful, and with their hair down."
And asked earlier this year who her top five dinner party guests, living or dead, would be, her then-fiance was top of the list.
She said: "Stephen Kay, Phyllis Diller, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jon Stewart, and Michael Symon."

Quentin Tarantino confirms Hateful Eight go-ahead


Quentin Tarantino has confirmed he will continue to work on 'The Hateful Eight'.
The Academy-Award winning director was forced to put the Western on hold after chunks of the script was leaked online in January, but he has now decided to go ahead with the movie, according to Deadline.com.
The 51-year-old star was furious after he found out someone had published the story on the web and was determined to find out who was behind the betrayal as he'd only lent the scrip to a small group of actors.
He said at the time: "I'm very, very depressed, I finished a script, a first draft, and I didn't mean to shoot it until next winter, a year from now. I gave it to six people, and apparently it's gotten out today."
Fans were hoping to see another Western from Tarantino following the success of 'Django Unchained' last year, but were left gutted when he said he would publish the story as a book and pursue other projects.
He said: "I don't know how these f**king agents work, but I'm not making this next. I'm going to publish it, and that's it for now. I give it out to six people, and if I can't trust them to that degree, then I have no desire to make it. I'll publish it. I'm done. I'll move on to the next thing. I've got 10 more where that came from."
However, he announced in April he was working on a new draft of the script and hoped to go ahead with the project at some point in the future.
It is now believed the movie could go into production as early as November.

Vicky Pattison wants marriage


Vicky Pattison wants to be married in five years' time.
The 'Geordie Shore' reality star has admitted that she plans to be married by the time she is 31.
Vicky, who is currently 26 years old, revealed that she has a five year plan in place which will hopefully see her walking down the aisle and with a successful book under her belt.
She explained: "I hope I'll have a house and at least one book in the Times Bestseller List. I want to be at the top of my game and doing TV presenting. I want to wake up every day happy with my job and career. And I want to be married, with a dog."
However, Vicky's boyfriend, ice hockey player and part-time butcher James Morgan, won't be under any pressure from her to propose.
She added: "I would never put any pressure on him in that area. I think once you start doing that, men run away. The most attractive thing to a man is an independent woman."
In the past, Vicky has been engaged to former 'Geordie Shore' co-star Ricci Guarnaccio, but they broke up in June 2013.
Now, the feisty Geordie thinks she's finally found 'the one'.
Vicky told heat magazine: "I do hope a [proposal] happens in the future. [James] is the first bloke that's ever ticked all of my boxes."
'Geordie Shore' airs Tuesdays at 10pm on MTV.

Bellamy Young against Scandal romance


Scandal's Bellamy Young hopes Olivia Pope and President Fitz Grant don't get a happy ending.
The 44-year-old actress - who plays Fitz's scorned wife, the First Lady of the United States, Mellie Grant - has admitted she doesn't want her on-screen husband (played by Tony Goldwyn) to sail off into the sunset with his mistress, played by Kerry Washington, when the series ends.
She exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "I certainly hope not! How horrible [of me]! I like to think of Olivia as a short term problem. I'd like to think of Olivia as something Fitz will get over, I like to think of a time when perhaps Mellie is president and Fitz is the First Gentleman, but these are things that Mellie likes to think of."
Bellamy's vicious character often gets into heated arguments with Olivia, but the actress says the atmosphere on set is far from bleak when the cameras stop rolling.
She explained: "I'm lucky because we're the closest cast ever, it's the sweetest bunch of people - so kind, so hard working. And we love to embrace it together and we spend a lot time off set together."
Bellamy says her close friendship with Kerry, 37, allows them to be mean and nasty when filming scenes between Mellie and her love rival Olivia, and they embrace the opportunity to run wild.
The flame-haired star enthused: "There's just no more fun than when you get to be that completely unleashed and you can't be that completely unleashed unless you really trust who you're with. So it's a credit to what a love she is that we enjoy all of that ranting as much as we do."
'Scandal' Season 3 starts on July 31 at 9pm on Sky Living.

Pink Floyd’s new album is ‘spacey’


Pink Floyd's new album will be "very spacey."
The iconic rock group - consisting of Nick Mason and David Gilmour - are set to release 'The Endless River,' their first record since 1994, in October but fans are likely to be shocked by the hotly anticipated LP.
An insider told The Sun newspaper: "It's not what fans will necessarily expect. The other songs, which David has worked on with (drummer) Nick Mason, are lengthy instrumentals rather than straight-up rock.
"It's beautiful but not exactly 'Another Brick in the Wall' or 'Wish You Were Here.' It's very spacey."
The album will feature unreleased material from 1994 recording sessions with late keyboardist Richard Wright, who died of cancer in 2008.
The insider explained: "It's got lots of keyboards from Rick so you can see why the band are calling it his swansong. The track that Gilmour recorded vocals on will be the band's last-ever real song. It's a proper epic and a fitting farewell."
Hopes that the band might tour again were shot down when Rick died six years ago, and it appears the 'Comfortably Numb' hitmakers aren't keen on doing a farewell tour either.
The source added: "It would probably be the highest-grossing tour in history if they reunited with Roger Waters. But Gilmour just won't have it. This album really is the end of Pink Floyd -- for ever."

Sir Mick Jagger’s grandchildren help him through L’Wren’s death


Sir Mick Jagger's grandchildren have helped him through the death of his partner L'Wren Scott.
The Rolling Stones rocker has been seeking comfort in the birth of his grandson Ray and great-granddaughter Ezra following the fashion designer's suicide in March.
Jade, who gave birth to her third child Ray last month, told Hello! magazine: "My dad loves babies. He's really good with them and is a big family man. He's been through a difficult time but it's been great to have two new babies in the family with the joy they bring."
The 71-year-old singer became a great-grandfather for the first time in May after Jade's daughter Assisi, 21, gave birth to baby Ezra four weeks before the former model, 42, welcomed Ray into the world.
Jade explained: "It was quite peculiar that the pregnancies happened at the same time. I can't help but have a sense of humour about it. But becoming a grandmother doesn't faze me or make me feel older.
"I don't feel like a grandmother, because the babies are so close in age it almost feels like they are brother and sister. We're lucky. It's been really great."
Sir Mick also has daughter Karis, 43, with Marsha Hunt, Lizzie 30, James, 28, Georgia, 21, and Gabriel, 16, with model Jerry Hall, and 14-year-old son Lucas form a brief romance with TV presenter Luciana Gimenez.

Shakira is pregnant again


Shakira is reportedly pregnant with her second child.
The 37-year-old singer and her soccer player partner Gerard Piqué - who already have 19-month-old son Milan together - are said to be overjoyed about the prospect of becoming parents again later this year.
Columbian singer Carlos Vives, a close friend of Shakira, told Fox News Latino: "Yes, she is pregnant and she's very happy."
The 'Hips Don't Lie' hitmaker first sparked rumours she is expecting again after she "toned down" her belly dancing performance at the Fifa World Cup 2014 final between Germany and Argentina two weeks ago.
The blonde beauty and her beau, whom she met in 2010, are yet to confirm the news, but it is believed they will be "buying pink baby clothes this autumn."
Meanwhile, Shakira previously admitted that she would like to have a large family with Gerard, but had been forced to put her baby plans on hold for a while as her budding career was getting in the way.
She said earlier this year: "If it weren't because of my music projects, I would be pregnant already. I would love to have eight or nine kids with Gerard--my own soccer team."

Dolly Parton would sing own songs in biopic


Dolly Parton would perform her own songs in a movie of her life.
The 'Jolene' hitmaker doesn't want an actress to have the "pressure" of having to match her famous vocals in a biopic, so would allow them to lip-sync to tracks she has already recorded for them.
Discussing the movie of her life, she told the Guardian newspaper: "We've actually got to finish it all, but there are a lot of great people out there. I would probably sing my own songs so it would just need to be the perfect actress, they wouldn't have to have the pressure of having to sing it also. But for the stage, that would be a different thing altogether."
Dolly is still keen for Scarlett Johansson to portray her on the big screen, but when it comes to a stage musical, she thinks 'Glee' and 'The West Wing' star Kristin Chenoweth would be perfect as she could handle the singing aspects.
She added: "I think [whoever plays me] would have to have the right personality. I think they would have to have some big boobs.
"I think somebody like Scarlett Johansson, somebody like that as an actress for the film, whereas a Kristin Chenoweth would be great for stage, because she's little and has that great voice.
"At one time, back when I had started working on this film several years ago, I had thought about Scarlett Johansson. They're all bigger than me, of course, but that doesn't matter."

Courtney Love talks new Kurt Cobain biopic


Courtney Love says a new biopic of her late husband Kurt Cobain will go into production next year.
The Hole frontwoman has claimed that she, her and Kurt's daughter Frances Bean Cobain and Nirvana's Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic will be involved in casting and production.
She told the Philippine Daily Inquirer: "CAA (Creative Artists Agency) directly sent me actors' (demo) reels. That was really tough because these boys are so pretty, so cute. I won't name names because I don't want to jinx it for anyone but these are 25-year-olds who are blond, gorgeous and the new Brad Pitts.
"There's a ton of those. Some are really good actors, not just pretty faces. I don't want to be the person who makes that decision. Let's leave that to the agents; I have great agents now. But I will have a say in it."
Courtney previously claimed she can't go out in Hollywood without someone asking her to take part in a biopic of the late Nirvana singer, who committed suicide aged 27 on April 5, 1994.
She said: "Honey, I can't go out in Hollywood at night without somebody grabbing me and saying 'I want to be a part of this', and we're talking to the biggest producers in town."
