Matthew Knowles’ ex-girlfriend speaks out


Beyoncé Knowles' half-brother's mother isn't angry the singer has never met him.
The 32-year-old star's father Matthew Knowles has a four-year-old son, Nixon, with his ex-girlfriend Alexsandra Wright, who claims he is still behind on his child support payments and never spends time with the little boy, but doesn't think their issues have anything to do with the 'Pretty Hurts' hitmaker.
The former 'Scrubs' actress, who previously claimed Matthew asked her to hand Nixon over to Beyoncé and Jay Z when he was born in February 2010 so they could raise him as their own child, told Inside Edition: "I don't expect Beyoncé to take accountability. It's not her problem. It's not her situation."
Alexsandra said Matthew still owes her $32,000 in court-ordered child support payments, which he denied in December and insisted was merely the result of a paperwork delay.
She added: "I tried everything to not have it public, but unfortunately that's just not the way that Matthew chose to deal with this.
"I'm going to stand up and I'm going to fight, and I'm going to fight the next day because that's the only way to give him his identity."
Matthew married former model Gena Avery in Houston, Texas last July but neither Beyoncé nor her younger sister Solange Knowles, 27, attended the ceremony.
The 'XO' singer, who has a two-year-old daughter Blue Ivy Jay Z, previously hinted that she and Matthew, who split from her mother Tina Knowles in 2009 and divorced her in December 2011 after 31 years of marriage, were still in the process of rebuilding their relationship after they decided he would no longer be her manager in 2011.

George Clooney is dating Amal Alamuddin?


George Clooney took Amal Alamuddin as his date to meet US President Barack Obama.
The 'Monuments Men' star, who brushed off rumours he was romancing the British human rights lawyer in October, brought the brunette beauty, who represents WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, and his parents, Nick and Nina Clooney, to a private screening of the film at the White House in Washington D.C. last week.
An insider told the MailOnline website that Amal was George's guest and they were the talk of the event, as they seen cosying up to each other when they arrived.
The duo also enjoyed drinks with the 52-year-old actor's co-stars Bill Murray, Matt Damon and his wife Luciana at the Round Robin and Scotch Bar at the Willard Hotel in the city afterwards, and an eyewitness said: "They looked very much together, George had his arm around her and she appeared to be a girlfriend.
"They were in a small group of about 10 people, it's really a small venue and there were maybe only about 30 people in the bar, and they were sitting at a table off to the side."
Amal and George were photographed having dinner in London in October but a friend close to Oscar-winning actor, who split from his former wrestler Stacy Keibler last summer, claimed at the time that he was just working with Amal on a surveillance satellite program over Syria.

Lena Dunham will host ‘SNL’


Lena Dunham will host 'Saturday Night Live' ('SNL') for the first time next month.
The 'Girls' creator and star will make her debut on the New York-based comedy-sketch series, which has poked fun at her own hit show several times in the past, on March 8.
The 27-year-old actress shared the news, reported by Variety magazine, on Twitter on Tuesday (25.02.14), writing: "Thank you for the 'SNL' love. Can't wait to debut my character 'girl who googled serial killers all night & has lots to say!' "
Lena previously praised a parody of 'Girls' on the show in September, that featured then-host Tina Fey as an Albanian girl, Blerta, with a rubber hand and "Old Cow Disease," who joined the four young women trying to find their place in the world.
She called the sketch "a true honour," and also tweeted: "Very excited about the current line-up of 'SNL' ladies. They are funny like whoa."
The outspoken actress isn't likely to hold back during her upcoming appearance, as she recently revealed she thought she was "hallucinating" when she came across a photograph online of her boyfriend, fun. guitarist Jack Antonoff with his ex-girlfriend Scarlett Johansson.
She said: "I'm not jealous. It's very sweet. I love looking at pictures of them. She's beautiful, he's beautiful, but it was just so surreal to be looking through this blog that gives me so much pleasure and then there's my boyfriend. And I was like, 'My mind is going to explode.' I really did think I was hallucinating."

Charlie Sheen's new fiancée wants to get pregnant as soon as possible.
Brett Rossi wants them to start their own family immediately but the 'Anger Management' star is reportedly reluctant, as he already has five children from previous relationships and a seven-month-old granddaughter, Luna.
A source told gossip website RadarOnline.com: "Bret wants to start a family with Charlie immediately. She doesn't want to wait to have kids, and thinks Charlie will be an amazing father."
The insider said that the 48-year-old actor "isn't quite ready to become a father for the sixth time. He definitely wants kids with Brett, but he doesn't want to rush into it. This is the one thing they can't seem to agree on!"
Charlie proposed to Brett on Valentine's Day on February 14, after less than four months of dating.
The former 'Two and a Half Men' star has 29-year-old daughter, Cassandra, with former girlfriend Paula Profit, daughters Sam, nine, and Lola, eight, with second wife Denise Richards and twin sons Bob and Max, four, with former spouse Brooke Mueller, and previously said he was "open" to having kids with his 24-year-old fiancée.

Lindsay Lohan escapes lawsuit


Lindsay Lohan is no longer being sued for an alleged hit and run incident.
Nubia Del Carmen Preza has dropped the lawsuit she filed against the 27-year-old actress in 2012.
The nanny claimed she was pushing a baby stroller in West Hollywood in June 2010 when the 'Mean Girls' star hit her with her Maserati.
Preza's lawsuit stated she had suffered "disabling and serious personal injuries, pain, suffering and anguish" and that she was seeking damages for all her medical expenses and lost time at work.
A source told gossip website TMZ.com that Nubia has thrown in the towel and didn't get any financial settlement from the actress.
Lindsay has been trying to get her acting career back on track since being released from her last stint in rehab last year.
The red-haired beauty's father, Michael Lohan, recently said she had cut all of her bad friends out of her life to focus on filming the upcoming thriller, 'Inconceivable.'
He said: "She [Lindsay] has Randell Emmett, who produced 'Lone Survivor' and 'Broken City', helping her. She's cut the bad friends out of her life and is taking this seriously."
The former child star has also just wrapped on the production of her eight-part documentary 'Lindsay' with Oprah Winfrey, which is described as an "honest, no-holds-barred-account" of her efforts to lead a more positive life without the legal troubles and substance abuse that has plagued her career over the past few years.

Jessica Alba isn’t a robot


Jessica Alba is no longer afraid of failure.
The 32-year-old actress and co-founder of The Honest Company used to feel she needed to be perfect but recently realised she doesn't "have to be a robot."
The 'Machete Kills' star said: "Before, I was so fearful of failure and judgment that I was scared to put myself out there.
"You don't have to be a robot, you don't have to be appropriate all the time."
Jessica, who has two daughters, Honor, five, and Haven, two, with husband Cash Warren, also told the March issue of Nylon magazine that she "used to be so hard on myself," but has learnt to embrace her mistakes.
She said: "You have to realise that as along as you don't make a habit of it, tomorrow will be here, and everything will be okay."
The Los Angeles-based star - who recently completed shooting two movies, 'Stretch' and 'Dear Eleanor,' and has five films in pre-production - has also developed a taste for characters who enable her to step outside her comfort zone, and believes acting is "like a drug."
She said: "I don't have to be a boss; I don't have to be a wife; I don't have to be a sister.
"It's been liberating to be able to play someone who's a badass or promiscuous because that's the opposite of who I am ... It's like a drug."

Tori Spelling’s husband has left rehab


Tori Spelling's husband has checked out of rehab.
Dean McDermott, who entered a treatment facility in Los Angeles for personal issues early last month after he was accused of cheating on the former 'Beverly Hills 90210' star, was spotted outside their home with the couple's eldest daughter Stella, five, on Monday (24.02.14).
The 'Chopped Canada' host, 47, was carrying several children's car seats away from the property, according to UsMagazine.com.
Tori, who also has three other children, Liam, six, Hattie, two, and 18-month-old Finn, with her husband of seven years, was not present.
A source recently admitted the 40-year-old star isn't sure whether she can save her marriage.
The insider said: "Tori keeps waffling. Even if they reconcile, it's going to be hard to trust him," but added: "Tori doesn't want her kids to grow up without their dad in the house."
The couple are scheduled to film another reality TV show 'Tori & Dean: Cabin Fever' this spring, according to Deadline, and the actress has already starting working on the show.

Khloe Kardashian still wants a baby


Khloe Kardashian still dreams of becoming a mother.
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star struggled with fertility issues during her four-year marriage to Lamar Odom, whom she filed for divorce from in December, but "prays" she will have her own family in the future.
The 29-year-old beauty said: "I love kids. I hope and pray I have kids when the time is right."
But she insists she has no regrets about ending her marriage, adding: "I live for the moment. If you think too far in the future, you might get disappointed or set the bar too low. It sucks at times, but everything happens for a reason, no matter how sh***y your circumstances are. To say where I want to be in 10 years...I have no idea. I just know that I want to be happy and smiling."
Khloe, who reportedly kept her estranged husband's alleged battle with crack cocaine a secret from her family for two years, also admits to her mother Kris Jenner during an interview for the US April issue of Cosmopolitan magazine that she often keeps her problems to herself.
She said: "I'm not a big 'cry on a shoulder' person. I'm very introverted when it comes to my own stuff. Everyone has issues, and I'm not someone who likes to burden people."
She added: "That's just how I am. I hold things in. I don't know why."
Khloe's relationship and split from Lamar has been documented for her family's reality series, but she said: "People hate us for showing stuff and they hate us when we say, 'Fine, we won't show it anymore.' I don't have any regrets. I wouldn't change a thing. You learn as you go."

Paula Patton attended Grammys ‘as a favour’


Paula Patton attended the Grammy Awards with Robin Thicke "as a favour" last month.
The duo agreed to put on a united front before they announced their split on Monday (24.02.14), after almost nine years of marriage, but they began "unravelling a long time" ago and their relationship reportedly got rockier after Miley Cyrus twerked against the 'Blurred Lines' hitmaker at the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) last August.
A source told UsMagazine.com: "The Miley Cyrus fiasco was a big test of their relationship. He asked her to help him out as a friend and a wife, and defend him and the performance. He begged her to speak out for him and be there for him.
"She agreed to be the good wife after he begged and pleaded. Then he asked her to stick with him through awards season, and she agreed. She attended the Grammys with him as a favour."
Paula, 38, frequently voiced her support for raunchy performance and previously said: "They rehearsed for three days. Robin told me in advance. I thought it was great."
The 'Baggage Claim' star also defended Robin, 36, after he was photographed grabbing a model's butt at a VMA after-party and was accused of cheating on her.
But the insider said: "Their marriage was unravelling a long time. It is not a shock to Robin or Paula, and it is something they have discussed for a long time."
The couple, who have a three-year-old son, Julian, together, released a joint statement on Monday that read: "We will always love each other and be best friends. However, we have mutually decided to separate at this time."

Coldplay unveil surprise single and video


Coldplay shocked fans by unveiling a new single and video today (25.02.14).
The 'Paradise' hitmakers posted the video for the new track 'Midnight' on their VEVO site, after teasing fans on Twitter there was "something new" to come.
The monochrome video, directed by Mary Wigmore, shows frontman Chris Martin and band mates Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman, Will Champion, walking through a woodland, as the scene flashes different colours and a fox moves among the grass.
The atmospheric track is a big departure from the band's usual melodies and catchy riffs, swapping guitar and piano for synthesisers and taking inspiration from electronic music.
Fans have compared their new sound to American indie folk band Bon Iver and the band are believed to be working on their sixth studio album, the follow-up to 'Mylo Xyloto' in 2011, which sold over eight million copies worldwide.
Chris, 36, revealed they had started work on the record back in 2012 and said he was "so fired up about the band's future", adding: 'I'm fortunate to do what I do and no way do I want to stop."
Last year, the group revealed their track 'Atlas', which was taken from the soundtrack for 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire', and they played an intimate show at a pub in Somerset in December where they treated punters to a number of hits.

Kate Garraway rules out more reality TV


Kate Garraway isn't sure about doing more reality TV.
The 'Daybreak' presenter - who was announced as one of the new presenters on Smooth Radio yesterday (24.02.14) - is ruling out appearances on ITV diving show 'Splash!' and Channel 4's Winter Olympics-themed 'The Jump' following her stint on 'Strictly Come Dancing' in 2007.
Speaking to BANG Showbiz at the launch of the new Smooth Radio in London, she said: "I'm not sure really. When you look at some of the ones that have been on recently ... oh, 'Splash!' looks like agony, doesn't it?
"And 'The Jump' - oh my goodness, that looks so hard.
"I think I got into enough trouble in 'Strictly' with bits of me getting broken and injured so I think I should stay away from some of those shows."
The 48-year-old TV star has joined Smooth Radio's new star-studded line-up along with 'Loose Women' star Myleene Klass and former 'Holby City' actress Tina Hobley.
Kate is looking forward to hosting her new mid-morning weekday show, which begins on March 3 at 10am.
She said: "I've always been interested in radio and I think it's a brilliant medium. I think it's very free. With radio, there's just you, a mic and some music. It's more intimate."

George Harrison honoured by Mike Love


George Harrison has been honoured by The Beach Boys' Mike Love on his 71st birthday today (25.02.14).
The late Beatles' musician has been remembered by his friend with a previously unreleased track, 'Pisces Brothers', which was inspired by the Famous Four's trip to India with Mike in 1968, after they received an invitation from the Maharishi, Mahesh Yogi.
In a statement, Mike said: "This being the 50th anniversary of The Beatles coming to America, I wanted to commemorate this incredibly significant trip we all took together to India, at the Maharishi's invitation.
Mike described the trip as "enormously influential" for him and George, who died of cancer in 2001, and his band mates - Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and John Lennon.
They were also joined by songwriter Donovan and American actress, Mia Farrow, and attended an advanced Transcendental Meditation (TM) training session.
Mike, 72, said: "The song is really sentimental for me, and meant to honour George Harrison's remarkable contribution to music. And how, in this one moment in time, we got together, as the song says, not fortune or for fame, but for enlightenment."
The title of the song makes reference to the astrological sign the pair share, while Mike continues to practice the meditation techniques he was taught during his trip to India.
