Frankie Bridge’s wedding screening


Frankie Bridge celebrated her wedding anniversary with a screening of her nuptials.
The Saturdays singer and husband Wayne Bridge - who are expecting their second child, a sibling for 21-month-old son Parker - marked one year of marriage last week and she pulled off a special surprise for him with their friends and family, and she admits it was very emotional revisiting their big day.
Writing in her OK! magazine column, she said "Everyone was saying they wanted to watch the wedding video and I knew Wayne would really like the idea, so I organised a surprise for him and hired out the screening room at the Charlotte Street hotel in London and invited all the wedding party. Parker was there too.
"I thought it might be really boring for everyone to watch us get married again, but they absolutely loved it.
"I shed a few tears and so did Wayne, but neither of us cried as much as everyone else!"
Meanwhile, Frankie - who gifted her husband the promise of a spa day after their baby is born - was stunned by Wayne's surprise anniversary present to her.
She said: "Wayne is amazing with presents and surprises - he's booked us a holiday to the Maldives!
"I knew he'd been planning something because he's been on the phone a lot and talking to my sister but I had no idea it was my dream holiday
"We couldn't go there for our honeymoon because it was the wrong time of year, so it will be like our second honeymoon. I can't wait to go next year."

Kimberly Wyatt lifts weights with her baby


Kimberly Wyatt lifts weights with her daughter.
The former Pussycat Dolls star has revealed she loves nothing more than exercising with her seven-month-old daughter Willow and has tailored her fitness regime so the tot can be a part of it.
She revealed: "Because Willow is my priority now, I find ways to do it with her. We do mommy and baby yoga and weight classes. I love having her in that fitness atmosphere. I do my squats while holding her hand and do push-up kisses and she loves it. It feels like playtime for her."
The 33-year-old TV personality - who wed model Max Rogers last year - continued to say she hopes her dedication to keeping fit and healthy will rub off on her daughter long-term.
She explained: "In this selfie-obsessed generation, where people are so driven by fame and looks, with Photoshopped faces and bodies, we're all living in a false reality. What's important to me is to stay true to myself and to what I've learned along the way so that I can introduce Willow to that in the healthiest way I know.
"I have no control over the choices she makes in the future - my own experience taught me that - but I can be the best example to her that I can possibly be."
And the former dancer added she feels much closer to her beau since giving birth because the wellbeing of their baby is a shared "goal".
She told HELLO! magazine: "We've always been supportive of one another in our respective careers but I do feel that Max and I are even more of a team now that we have Willow. We're working towards the same goal, which is building a future for our child."

Sofia Vergara loses ‘control’ of her mouth


Sofia Vergara loses "control" of her mouth when she's tired.
The 'Hot Pursuit' actress' co-star Reese Witherspoon has revealed the bilingual star is hilarious to work with on set because her English fades and she ends up saying things which don't make sense.
Reese, 39, said: "She made me laugh all the time, she was so funny.
"When she gets tired she does this pronunciation thing which is so funny. It's like, 'What is she saying?!' "
The Colombian-born beauty - who is set to marry 'Magic Mike XXL' actor Joe Manganiello on November 22 after they got engaged last year - explained she struggles to differentiate between Spanish and English when she's been on set for a long time which is what leads to her bizarre mumblings.
She joked: "I lose my perfect English, I lost it when I'm tired. It gets really weird. My mouth keeps talking but I've already lost control of it."
And although her exhausted conversations can be hysterically funny, she confessed it "ruined" scenes when they were trying to shoot the comedy movie.
She added: "Yeah I ruined a lot of takes!"
Despite Sofia's strange habit, the pair admitted they are eager to work together on future movies.
Asked if they would act opposite each other again, Sofia told British chat show 'Lorraine': "Well, if Reese keeps producing things [then yes]."
To which Reese said: "Well if she still shows up and she's still as funny as she is in this movie..."

Hulk Hogan ranted against ex-wife Linda Hogan on tape


Hulk Hogan raged he didn't want his ex-wife Linda Hogan to be allowed to ever see him again even if he was dying, leaked transcripts from his sex tape have revealed.
The 61-year-old wrestler has been at the centre of a race row the last few days following the release of transcripts from the audio of the unauthorised recording which claim he used the 'N-word' while discussing his daughter Brooke's apparent boyfriend.
Now, according to a report by RadarOnline.com, Hogan is alleged to have launched into a tirade against his former spouse Linda, telling Bubba 'The Love Sponge' Clem - whose wife Heather Clem Hogan has sex with in the footage - to keep her away from him on his deathbed and hatching a plan to withhold money from her when they legally split.
The website claims Hogan is heard saying to his former friend: "Dude, the only thing I will ever ask of you ... I don't know how you will pull this off ... is, if I am ever on my death bed, you cannot let Linda come and visit me."
Hogan - real name Terry Bollea - then starts speaking about his $4.25 million Las Vegas residence and contemplates asking SoBe Entertainment mogul Cecile Barker, whom he refers to as a "black billionaire guy" elsewhere on the audio, to buy it off him to stop Linda getting her hands on the real estate.
He allegedly said: "If I get divorced, Linda will make me sell it. F**k it. Cecile will buy it and give it back to me after the divorce."
Hogan - who was fired by WWE following the initial reports of him using a racial slur - also rants against Linda for getting too friendly with a "half-gay" guy who they met while filming an episode of their reality TV show 'Hogan Knows Best', dismissing him with a derogatory homosexual slang word.
The grappling legend allegedly can be heard to say: "VH1 wanted me to do a big thing and go back to the house I grew up in. So we knock on the door and a big fag lives there now! This half-gay (guy) was enamoured with Linda."
Hogan's tirade against his ex-wife Linda - with whom he has two adult children, Nick and Brooke - is consistent with the time frame the sex tape is believed to have been made as his marriage fell apart in 2007 leading to Linda filing for divorce in November 2007.
Hogan has previously admitted he fell into a deep depression at the time as he was hit with divorce papers and he had to deal with the fallout from his son Nick being charged with dangerous driving due to car crash he had which left his best friend John Graziano with serious life changing injuries. Nick was eventually jailed for the offence.
Hogan has a $100 million lawsuit pending against Gawker - the website that originally leaked the sex tape in 2012 - for invasion of privacy.
The case will go to court later this year.

Simon Cowell ‘doing well’ in wake of mother’s death


Simon Cowell is "doing well" following the death of his mother.
The music mogul was left devastated by the passing of his beloved mum Julie Brett earlier this month but has been throwing himself into work on 'The X Factor' in a bid to combat his grief.
'The Xtra Factor' host Rochelle Humes told the new issue of Star magazine: "He's been through a really tough couple of weeks. It's a situation no one ever wants to be in.
"He's been upset but he's doing well and still working. Everyone is making sure he's alright. We're all thinking of him."
And the 26-year-old beauty - who is a member of girl group The Saturdays - is enjoying working on the show because everyone is so close and supportive of one another.
She said: "Everyone is really nice. It's such a nice team and everyone seems to get along really well."
Julie died just a day before Simon was due to start recording 'The X Factor', but he recently insisted his speedy return to work is what his mother would have wanted.

Rod Stewart is colour blind


Rod Stewart is colour blind.
The 'Do Ya Think I'm Sexy' singer is famous for wearing bright, eye-catching clothes and polka dot scarves throughout his career and his daughter Kimberly Stewart has now revealed his garish signature style is due to the condition which makes it difficult for a person to distinguish between certain colours such as blue, yellow, red and green.
Kimberly, revealed: "Well, my dad is colour blind, so he puts extremely bright colours together. The house I grew up in was bright pink. It wasn't normal. When people drove past they would be like, 'Oh my God!' His house now is orange and blue. It's very punchy. But everything else style wise, is totally on point. I cannot say that anything he does or has ever done is bad, because he created his own style and took risks and I think that's pretty cool."
Kimberly - who has a three-year-old daughter, Delilah, with former lover, actor Benicio del Toro - quipped that her because of her 70-year-old dad's visual impediment he shouldn't be able to take credit for his unique dress sense.
The 35-year-old blonde told The Sunday Times Style magazine: "He doesn't actually recognise the colour situation, so it's not as if he actually knows that he's taking a risk."

Rachel McAdams doesn’t want to be a movie star


Rachel McAdams never wanted to be a movie star.
Despite one of the most in-demand names in Hollywood, the 36-year-old Canadian actress never had the ambition to be one of the leading names in the industry and always believed she'd end up being predominantly a theatre actress.
Musing on whether she ever dreamed of being a big screen starlet, she said: "I think it was sort of a vague idea in my mind when I was a kid, when you think, 'What would that be like?' But it wasn't something I really meditated on or planned for in any way. I really thought I'd be doing theatre in Canada. I'd grown up doing children's theatre there, and I always imagined myself being artistic director of a children's theatre company."
McAdams - who grew up in Ontario and now lives in Toronto - and her current film 'Southpaw' are currently earning rave reviews and she has earned acclaimed for several of her performances in movies such as 'Mean Girls' and 'The Notebook'.
However, the star has no plan for her career and instead just follows her heart when it comes to work decisions.
She told the Los Angeles Times newspaper: "I try to shut out ideas about why you should do things. Trying to do good architecture and really designing a career? There's some attention to be paid to that, but I don't think it's everything."

Carly Rae Jepsen’s songs inspired by guys


Carly Rae Jepsen's love life inspires her songs.
The 29-year-old pop star often mines her romantic endeavours for lyrical ideas and also pays close attention to her friends' dating success and disasters for material.
In an interview on TV show 'Lorraine', she said: "I definitely pull (inspiration) from love life stuff, if it's not my own love life, it's friend's love lives. The poor things get to hear their stories put to music - 'That one's about you and that boy!'"
Although she is currently single, one man who is always in the singer's life is her close friend Justin Bieber.
Bieber helped launch Jepsen's career by promoting her single 'Call Me Maybe' and they are firm pals even though they don't get too hang out that much due to their work commitments.
Speaking about her relationship with Bieber, the 'I Really Like You' hitmaker said: "We are both probably two of the busiest people, we travel a ton so it's not like we're hanging out every day but I support him and I know he supports me and I'm very indebted to him. I'll be eternally grateful."
