Khloe Kardashian mourning Lamar pal


Khloe Kardashian is mourning the loss of Lamar Odom's best friend.
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star is devastated after Jamie Sangouthai - who was one of the basketball star's best men at their 2009 wedding - passed away yesterday (14.06.15) at the age of just 37 following a reported heroin overdose.
Alongside a broken heart emoji, she tweeted yesterday afternoon: "When does it stop? RIP Jamie Sangouthai."
Khloe's estranged husband is said to be "beside himself" by the loss of his former school friend and occasional business partner.
A source told Us Weekly magazine: "Lamar is beside himself. This is the worst tragedy."
Another source added: "This is so sad. They were best friends, like brothers. Lamar is going to take this really hard."
While Lamar has yet to comment on the news, 30-year-old Khloe's close friend Malika Haqq is also saddened by their pal's passing.
Alongside a photo of herself, Jamie, Khloe and Lamar, she wrote on Instagram: "Thru good and bad times life shows us every spirit matters and leaves a print on the hearts of others after they have passed... RIP Jamie Sangouthai #GodHelpUsAll.(sic)
Jamie was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital for treatment after emergency services were called on Sunday, but died at the medical facility.

Frank Sinatra’s address book sold at auction


Frank Sinatra's little black book has sold at auction for $8,960.
The leather address book of the legendary singer - who died in 1998, aged 82 - read like a who's who of the showbiz world, featuring the names and numbers of friends such as John Wayne and Sidney Poitier, as well as influential political figures, the New York Post reports.
The book, which dates back to the 1970s, was filled with annotated contacts of industry insiders like Jerry Weintraub, who was Elvis Presley's promoter.
Meanwhile, the front of the address book features a fortune cookie message that reads: "Beware of friends who are false and deceitful."
The auctioning of the address book comes a matter of weeks after it was reported that the 'New York, New York' singer's custom-designed California villa had gone on sale for $3.9 million.
Frank - who lived in the property in the mountains above California's Coachella Valley for more than a decade in the 1970s - is said to have used his private helicopter to fly guests in for parties.
The stunning villa features three bedrooms and six bathrooms in the main house, in addition to a further three beds and five baths in the guest house.

Chris Rock’s ex wants share of fortune


Chris Rock's estranged wife is demanding a "huge" chunk of his fortune in their divorce.
The 'Top Five' actor split from Malaak Compton-Rock last December and documents in their divorce case show the 46 year old is seeking a large proportion of the 50-year-old comic's estimated $70 million earnings to maintain her lifestyle.
The court filings say Malaak deserves a payout "commensurate with the marital standard of living" because she spends most of her time caring for their daughters, Lola, 13, and 11-year-old Zahra, and doing charity work.
The former couple - who were married for 19 years before going their separate ways - did have a pre-nuptial agreement but both Chris and Malaak have agreed the terms expired under a sunset clause, a filing made in Bergen County court and obtained by the New York Post newspaper shows.
Despite it previously being claimed that Malaak was seeking sole custody of the couple's daughters, the documents state she and Chris have agreed to share care of the girls equally.
Chris recently admitted he was worried about the impact the divorce would have on his kids if he wasn't around all the time.
He said: "Can I keep it going and raise healthy daughters who don't have daddy issues because I'm gone all the time?
"So who the hell knows what's next.
"I'm doing OK. You know, some days are better than others, some days you're sad outta your f***ing mind. But my daughters are good and I'm only an hour away. Two houses close by. It's good."

Karrueche Tran slams weak Chris Brown


Karrueche Tran has branded Chris Brown "weak" for trying to "force himself" into her car.
The 27-year-old model has lashed out at the 'Loyal' singer - who she split from after learning he had fathered a child, Royalty, now 12 months, with friend Nia Guzman-Amey - for bombarding her with unwanted attention and not "manning up" and making changes to his life.
In response to Chris blasting her on Instagram for speaking out about their relationship in a recent interview, she replied: "They asked a question and as a mature adult I answered. I'm not gonna shy away from something that I lived through.
"I'm not speaking on you or bashing you (like I easily could). Don't be mad at me because our relationship is over due to your lack of loyalty.
""You know what's weak?? You forcing yourself into my car..my broken window..blowing up my phone..trying to shower me w/ gifts
"Man the f**k up and change the bs in your life like I've told you several times. (sic)"
Despite her harsh comments, the 26-year-old singer responded by thanking Karrueche for being "part of his life" and said he had learned a lot from her.
Posting a picture of himself and the model in happier times, he replied: "I'm eternally thankful for you being in a part of my life. I've learned so much from you/
"I wish u nothing but happiness and the best. @karrueche all I was doing was trying to fight for the woman I love. Thanx I learned a lot.(sic)"
The 'Run It' hitmaker had earlier slammed Karrueche for her "pointless" remarks about him, insisting she should no longer discuss their relationship.
He posted: "Honestly, it's so f***ing pointless to keep doing interviews about me. Talk about your career.
"If there is no more relationship then u shouldn't be doing f***ing interviews with people I won't let get the pleasure of prying into my personal life. S**t starting to get real weak now."
Karrueche's remarks came just over a week after police were called when Chris followed her home after they were both at Club PlayHouse, despite appearing to be dissuaded to by friends.
Later that evening, the cops were said to have been called after Chris was heard "banging and yelling" on Karrueche's door early in the morning.

Taylor gets ready to meet Calvin Harris’ parents


Taylor Swift is due to meet Calvin Harris' parents.
The 25-year-old pop-babe has a busy few weeks ahead of her since she is not only just preparing to bring her '1989 Word Tour' to the UK but will also be meeting her new boyfriend's family when she performs a gig in Glasgow, Scotland on June 23.
A source said: "Calvin has hired the private dining room in the Ubiquitous Chip restaurant for the meeting. Taylor's mum Andrea is also hoping to fly over between treatments for her cancer."
The 'Bad Blood' singer - who had been single since dating Harry Style last year - began seeing the superstar DJ in March and has been posting pictures of their romance on social media ever since.
The couple have already been seen visiting Taylor's hometown of Nashville and so the trip to Glasgow could be Calvin's chance to show Taylor around the town of Dumfries where he grew up.
The 31-year-old Scott's close friend Ellie Goulding recently revealed that she introduced them and played matchmaker in their love affair.
Ellie told The Sun newspaper: "Calvin is a really great mate and he's so fantastic, and Taylor is such a cool person who I love. I thought. "They're both really awesome and both really tall, they'll brilliant together".'

David Furnish generous gift to personal trainer


Sir Elton John's husband David Furnish has reportedly bought a home in London for his personal trainer.
The 52-year-old film maker met Danny Williams, 33, in a night club and according to 2013 Land Registry documents he purchased the fitness guru a two-bedroom flat costing over £330,000 in the south of the city.
When approached for comment by The Sun on Sunday, Danny, 33, said about his celebrity pals: 'We were just friends, that's all we ever was. I'm friends with both (Sir Elton and Furnish)."
David and Sir Elton have been an item for over 10 years and married in December 2014. They have two children together, Zachary, four and Elijah, two, who share the same surrogate mother.
The famous couple flew Danny - who is openly gay and has a 12-year-old daughter - from London to their home in Hawaii for David's 51st birthday party two years ago and Danny was also spotted on holiday in Italy and Greece with David in 2012.
However a source confirmed with The Sun that the high-profile pair are happily married and have a trusting relationship.
The source said: "Danny is a friend of Elton's as well and Elton doesn't have a problem. There is absolutely not a crack in Elton and David's relationship."


Chris Pratt credits success to’ fate’


Chris Pratt believes in fate.
The 35-year-old star - who's married to actress Anna Faris, with whom he has a two-year-old son, Jack - has attributed much of his career success to events that are outside of his control.
Asked whether his recent success feels like fate, Chris - who stars in 'Jurassic World', having been a long-time fan of the franchise - told Entertainment Weekly: "It does. It feels just like that. I believe that it is. Things like that happen a lot. It feels like that happens a lot. I'm definitely very favoured by God and fate.
"But also I do a lot of stupid bits. I could pretty much do any movie and there's a chance I've done some dips**t bit pertaining to it at some point."
Earlier this month, Chris conceded he is currently living his dream.
The Hollywood actor said he would be "pretty p***ed" if anyone woke him up from the life he is living now.
He said: "I don't pinch myself because when you pinch yourself, it's to see if you're dreaming and it'll wake you up.
"I wouldn't want anyone to pinch me right now, because if I did wake up, I'd be pretty p***ed."
