J.B. Gill nervous during wedding


J.B. Gill was shaking uncontrollably on his wedding day.
The JLS singer was overcome with nerves when he wed his partner of five years, Chloe Tangney, in a romantic ceremony at Mount Stuart country house on the Isle of Bute in Scotland earlier this month, and felt extremely emotional when he saw his bride walk down the aisle.
He said: "When I saw the first bridesmaid, I was like, 'Wow'. I was shaking and I didn't know how to stop. Then Chloe's sister Sian Louise came in and she was really emotional. I thought, 'I'm going to lose it'.
"By now, I was desperate to see Chloe. I'd missed her. Then, when I saw her coming down the aisle with her dad, I felt calmer. They weren't in meltdown, they just looked really happy and that helped me to hold I together. I know it sounds cheesy, but it was perfect."
The ceremony, which was attended by 140 of their close friends and family, as well as J.B.'s bandmates Marvin Humes, Aston Merrygold and Ortise Williams, was extremely traditional and featured hymns from a gospel choir.
J.B. - who has quit singing to pursue a career as a farmer - claims tradition is very important to him and Chloe and are ecstatic to finally be man and wife.
He said: "We're traditional and to us that's all part of this exciting new chapter in our lives. For me, it's a big thing. When you get married, it's not just you anymore, it's the two of you and I'm looking forward to reflecting that in our home and making it our house."
While the pair have no plans to start a family yet, they definitely want to have kids in the future.
He said: "We love kids and we're looking forward to being parents. It's something we've talked about, obviously, but there are no film plans for that yet.
"Today has been the best day of our lives and for now, we're happy to spend some time enjoying what we have and getting used to being husband and wife. It feels so good to finally be able to say that."

Jimmy Page receives honorary doctorate


Jimmy Page has received an honorary doctorate at Boston's Berklee College of Music.
The Led Zeppelin guitarist addressed the audience at the 7,000-capacity Agganis Arena on Friday (09.05.14) and wished fellow students good luck for the future.
According to Rolling Stone, he told the crowd: "What a spirit there is here.
"Music has so much power across so many avenues. To be in a position to do the thing you're best at, which is making music, and bringing joy and pleasure to other people, it can't be much better than that. I wish to pass that on to all of you. Congratulations with your degrees and lots of success in the future."
The 70-year-old musician, who also has an OBE, founded Led Zeppelin in 1968 with singer Robert Plant, bassist and keyboardist John Paul Jones and drummer John Bonham.
Berklee also presented honorary doctorates this year to R&B songwriter Valerie Simpson and jazz pianist Geru Allen, while past honorees have included Willie Nelson, Steven Tyler and Annie Lennox.
When the doctorate was announced in March, Jimmy told Rolling Stone magazine: "It's truly an honour to be the recipient of an Honorary Doctorate at Berklee as the music of America has been a primary driving force in my early years and pivotal to my musical development."
Meanwhile, Led Zeppelin will release a "super deluxe album series", featuring unreleased material from their nine records. The first three will be released on June 3.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson excited by ‘Godzilla’ training


Aaron Taylor-Johnson had military training for 'Godzilla'.
The 23-year-old actor stars as Lieutenant Ford Brody in the sci-fi film and worked closely with a marine officer who taught him how to use various weapons to prepare for the part.
Speaking at the film's premiere in London's Leicester Square, he told BANG Showbiz: "I did quite a lot of the stunts involved and there was an amazing team. I had a marine guy who I worked with closely on the movie. I got used to the equipment and learnt to fire rounds."
The 'Anna Karenina' star - who attended the premiere with his 47-year-old wife Sam Taylor-Wood with whom he has daughters Wylda Rae, three, and two-year-old Romy Hero - confessed he felt a sense of camaraderie with the members of the military who trained him.
He added: "And I got used to the military lingo they use - it's like a boys club."
However, Taylor-Johnson admits that despite his special forces training he doesn't consider himself to be as heroic as his on-screen character.
He explained: "It was very exciting. I've been on military tanks, trains with missiles, we jump out of helicopters. I did actually jump out of an aeroplane, but it was still on the tarmac."
Taylor-Johnson also praised his co-star Bryan Cranston and was delighted he had the chance to work alongside the 'Breaking Bad' actor.
Quizzed on what it was like to work with the 58-year-old star, he explained: "Yeah it was brilliant. I'd seen him in 'Breaking Bad' and even in 'Malcolm in the Middle', which I used to love. He's a great actor."
Also in attendance at the film's European premiere was Taylor-Johnson's co-star Elizabeth Olsen and director Gareth Edwards.

Kevin Spacey: Horrible Bosses 2 cast are hilarious


Kevin Spacey says the cast of 'Horrible Bosses 2' spent most their time laughing on set.
The 54-year-old actor is working on the sequel to 2011's 'Horrible Bosses' and insists his co-stars Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis had everyone in stitches of laughter while they were "riffing" and "improv-ing".
He told collider.com: "I think it is a little bit crazier. I'm very glad that almost everybody is back for it and I so love working with Jason and Jason and Charlie because being opposite them in a scene when they're riffing and they're improv-ing and they're trying different ways to do scenes, it is the hardest thing in the world not to absolutely lose your cookies. We spend most of our time laughing and any time somebody wants to pay me to come and laugh all day long, I'm there."
He added: "It's like that, those guys that just are innately funny, they just are. Anything they say, they just go off and they're so good at it. I love being around them, it's just great."
'Horrible Bosses 2' is being directed by Sean Anders and is set for a November 2014 release.

Prince William to host dinner in support of Royal Marsden Cancer Charity


Britain's Prince William will host a charity dinner at Windsor Castle on 13 May.
The Duke of Cambridge will welcome a host of A-List stars including Kate Moss, Emma Watson, Mario Testino, Cate Blanchett, Cara Delevingne and Benedict Cumberbatch to the event which is being held in support the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity.
William, 31, is said to be hosting without Duchess Catherine - who was known as Kate Middleton before they wed.
Last November William saw patients go under the knife at the Royal Marsden Hospital after meeting the medical teams led by surgeons Stuart James and Pardeep Kumar.
The patients, a woman in her 60s undergoing breast reconstruction and a man in his 80s having a tumour from his bladder removed, allowed the second-in-line to the British throne to watch their operations, but did not get to meet him beforehand.
The young royal became president of the hospital in 2007, following in the footsteps of his mother, the late Princess Diana, who was president from 1989 until her death in 1997.
Upon taking up the role, the prince said: "The Royal Marsden does an extraordinary job in treating thousands of cancer patients every year. The standards of care and compassion of its staff are unsurpassed in the world.
"Therefore, I am delighted and honoured to become President of the Royal Marsden and will do whatever I can to support its innovative and vital work."nd will do whatever I can to support its innovative and vital work."

Natalie J. Robb wants a ‘simple but beautiful’ wedding


Emmerdale's Natalie J. Robb wants a "simple but beautiful" wedding.
The 39-year-old star's alter-ego Moira Barton is set to marry Cain Dingle in the soap and although she's in a relationship she's not ready to tie the knot but has been thinking about marriage in light of her story line.
She said: "Being an Emmerdale bride does make you think about how you'd do things.
"For Moira and Cain it's the whole traditional thing but that isn't for me. It wouldn't be a big, white wedding -- I'd want to do something simple but beautiful. Not that I'm in any rush to get married. In real life it's never really been a big thing for me."
Natalie insists filming scenes in preparation for the big day have given her an idea of how stressful the big day can be in real life.
She added: "Even just filming these scenes makes you realise how stressful a wedding would be. Doing it for work was pressure enough, weddings seem to get out of control and I'm not sure how you stop that."
The brunette beauty got butterflies when she was filming her character's nuptials and admits it gave her a taste of what it would be like in reality.
She explained to The Sun newspaper: "It sounds a bit mad but I was actually quite nervous when it came to filming. When you walk down the aisle and all eyes are on you... despite acting for a living, I still felt really self-conscious.
"It's suddenly a bit too real. It's a bit overwhelming, so you can imagine what it would be like on your own day."

Justin Bieber booed at basketball


Justin Bieber was booed by the "entire" crowd at a basketball game yesterday (11.05.14).
The 'Believe' hitmaker got a less-than-impressed reception from fellow sports fans as Los Angeles' Staples Center when he took his mother Pattie Mallette to watch Los Angeles Clippers take on the Oklahoma City Thunder in game four of the NBA playoffs.
A source told E! News: "The entire placed booed him when Staples Center cameras put him on the jumbotron."
Despite getting booed at the game - which saw the Clippers edge a victory with a final score of 101-99 - Justin, 20, and his mother appeared to be having a great time, and were seen posing for a number of selfies.
Posting one picture of his mother holding a hotdog online, the Canadian singer wrote: "Took my mom to the game.. She's more focussed on the food."
Justin and his mom were spending time together in honour of Mother's Day in America yesterday, and before they headed to the game, the 'Beauty and the Beat' singer posted a tribute to his 38-year-old parent on twitter.
He wrote: "Happy Mother's Day to my amazing mom @pattiemallette. I love u with all my heart!! #HonorThyMother #HappyMothersDay. (sic)"
The posting was accompanied by a childhood photograph of the star with his mother.

Aaron Paul: Marriage is the greatest


Aaron Paul says marriage is the "greatest thing" to ever happen to him.
The 'Breaking Bad' actor celebrates his first wedding anniversary later this month and admits the first 12 months of marriage to wife Lauren Parsekian have been incredible
He said: "Marriage is the greatest thing that has ever happened. Look how cute she is.
"[The first year has] flown by - blink of an eye. [We're] going strong."
While Aaron, 34, remained tight-lipped on how the couple will spend their anniversary, his 26-year-old spouse said they are "going somewhere fun" to celebrate.
She added to People: "It'll be an awesome time. It's been an amazing year. It's flown by."
At the weekend, Lauren was honoured at the Open Hearts Foundation's 4th Annual Gala for her work with anti-bullying organisation Kind Campaign and her husband was delighted to be by her side to support her.
He gushed: "I couldn't be more proud of her. I feel so blessed to be able to share this evening with her - let's be honest, I feel blessed to share any evening with her.
"The back of my head hurts from smiling so much. I always sit back and applaud her on a day-to-day basis. It's nice to see everyone else applaud her tonight."

Simon Cowell installs electric fence to zap foxes


Simon Cowell has installed an electric fence around his London mansion to protect his dogs from foxes.
The 54-year-old music mogul, who lives with his partner Lauren Silverman and their three-month-old son Eric, has gone to extra measures to protect his beloved Yorkshire Terriers, Squiddly and Diddly, from the pesky animals.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "This shows how much they love the dogs.
"They have put a wire along one wall where they think foxes would come from. There were signs of them in the garden and obviously Squiddly and Diddly would be no match for a fox."
The 'Britain's Got Talent' judge was alerted to protect the dogs after a neighbour saw a fox in his garden and although the fence will not harm the animals , it will shock them and he hopes that will stop them from returning to their $12 million property.
Simon and Lauren, 36, bought their dogs in 2013 and the pair dote on them, despite their bad behaviour.
Last year Diddly urinated on the floor of an exclusive store in Beverly Hill, Los Angeles, while Squiddly ruined a plush cream carpet of their London home as Simon was being interviewed.

Katie Price seeing a psychic about split


Katie Price is seeing a psychic for advice about Kieran Hayler.
The former glamour model - who is six months pregnant with her fifth child - is struggling to cope in the wake of discovering her husband has been having a "full blown sexual affair" with her married best friend, Jane Pountney, for the last seven months and is seeking spiritual guidance to help decide whether she should end their marriage for good.
The 35-year-old star's mother Amy has also been pushing her to consult a medium, despite one advising her to marry Kieran last year, leading her to tie the knot with the part-time stripper after a whirlwind romance.
A friend of Katie's told The Sun newspaper: "She's a big believer in psychics and Amy wants her to feel it'll be OK in the end. Things are so awful, she needs spiritual guidance. She wants to ask about the consequences of a divorce.
"It's hard for her, especially as she's worried about her pregnancy, but this might give her hope."
Katie previously admitted she had wed Kieran because a psychic told her the man of her dreams would be called Kelvin, and she decided his name was "close" enough.
However, the pal insists the mother-of-four isn't taking things likely and she is desperate to make the right decision for the sake of her children, Harvey, 11, Junior, eight, and Princess Tiaamii, six, from previous relationships, as well as nine-month-old baby Jett, her son with Kieran.
The source added: "It's no laughing matter for her. She's desperate for answers. She thinks they're scheming to get their stories straight. And she says Jane would have liked flings with several of her exes - but only Kieran was stupid enough to fall for it."
