Dianna Agron splits from Thomas Cocquerel


Dianna Agron has split from Thomas Cocquerel.
The 'Glee' star - who started dating the 25-year-old actor in March this year - is believed to have called time on her relationship with Thomas "a few weeks ago" according to Us Weekly.
The news follows reports things had been getting "very serious" between the pair - who were first spotted getting close at the Coachella Music Festival in California in April - after the blonde beauty flew to Australia to meet the Sydney-born actor and his family over the summer.
The stars never officially confirmed that they were dating and are yet to comment on news they have split.
Meanwhile, Dianna and Thomas have both enjoyed a string of high profile relationships in the past.
Dianna, 28, previously dated 'Magic Mike' star Alex Pettyfer, 'Now You See Me' actor Dave Franco and 29-year-old Sebastian Stan.
Prior to his relationship with Dianna - who rose to fame after being cast as Quinn Fabray on the Fox series in 2009 - Thomas was in a relationship with Brit actress Lily Collins, 25.
The pair are said to have been introduced through a mutual friend.

North West’s 10k style bill


Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West spend $1,000 a month on a beautician for their daughter.
Though little North may only by 17 months old, she has a $10,000-a-month fashion and beauty bill, with her costs including baby massages with organic oil and mini manicure-pedicures, as well as a $2,000-a-month hair dresser.
A source said: "Her hairdresser is also in charge of accessorising and works alongside her stylist to ensure that her hair goes with the look."
North has her own two-person styling team and the stylist and her assistant also spend around $2,000 a month on designer clothes for the youngster, before customising many of her garments.
The source told heat magazine: "North has a tailor who makes clothes for her, such as mini versions of her mum's designer outfits so she can match Kim.
"The tailor will often customise clothes too, by embellishing jackets with her name picked out in Swarovski crystals - she even has NW stitched into all her shoes."
The couple have also arranged for North to have her own 2,000 sq ft wardrobe in their new home, complete with Italian marble floors and her own beauty parlour.

Karlie Kloss: Taylor Swift is an Angel


Karlie Kloss thinks Taylor Swift should be a Victoria's Secret Angel.
The 22-year-old model walked the runway at the brand's annual show at London's Earls Court Exhibition Centre while her 24-year-old pop star pal performed, with them even stepping down together at one point, and the blonde beauty thinks the 'Shake it Off' hitmaker should be an "honorary" face of the lingerie company.
Karlie told Britain's Grazia magazine: "Taylor should be an Angel herself. She looks pretty heavenly out there. I'd say she's definitely an honorary one."
This year's show was the first time it had been held in London and Karlie and her fellow Angels loved the sense of camaraderie on the trip.
She said: "It's been like a sorority outing."
Behati Prinsloo - who is married to Adam Levine - added: "It felt like I was back in high school on a hockey trip, it's been such an amazing experience."
Taylor performed two tracks at the show earlier this month.
During her second song 'Style', which she played during the Angel Ball section, Taylor strutted up the catwalk with her close friend Karlie.
The two blondes - who became pals after hanging out at last year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in New York - were wearing matching black lace underwear for the moment.
Taylor was styled in high-waisted black panties with a matching bra top and a lace long-sleeved top over it which had a long flowing train.
Karlie's raunchy ensemble was comprised of black stockings, suspenders, briefs, high heels, a see-through black lace bodysuit and a huge flowing midnight black cape.
Earlier in the show, Taylor performed her latest single 'Blank Space' during the Dream Girl segment for which she wore a powder pink satin slip teamed with a pink satin and black lace robe and fluffy pink peep toe heels.
The musician playfully gave high-fives to some of the Angels as they walked the catwalk and danced seductively during the fashion extravaganza.

Tristan Evans’ One Direction lie


Tristan Evans pretended to be a member of One Direction.
The Vamps drummer tried to impress an old lady by boasting about his pop prowess - but claimed he was part of the 'Steal My Girl' group instead of his own.
He said: "I told an old person that I was in One Direction. I was just trying to impress the granny at the dinner table. It went down well!"
And it seems Tristan isn't the only member of the group who is happy to deceive people.
His bandmate Connor Ball said: "I'm good at lying. I've got it down to a tee - it's a trait I'd like to take further."
Meanwhile, the group admitted they wouldn't want their parents to accompany them on tour because they are very different on the road.
Brad Simpson said: "[They couldn't come on] the whole tour. Maybe just one journey. This is like, 'tour me', not the innocent Brad from home!"
James McVey added: "I don't mind if my family comes to the shows, but if they were on the tour bus, that would be a little bit too much."
Connor told Top of the Pops magazine: "Not the whole tour - that would be bad. Maybe a few days. My parents are not really that strict."
However, Tristan's reluctance to invite his family on the road stems from the fact they party harder than he can.
He said: "I think my dad would be more party animal-ish than me and my mum would join in. We would have to set down rules for them."

Kanye West has taught Kim Kardashian West a lot


Kanye West has taught Kim Kardashian West to "take a little more time" for herself.
The reality TV star, who married the rapper in Florence, Italy last May, says they have "learned a lot from each other" about how to communicate with their fans.
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' beauty, who has 17-month-old daughter North with the 'New Slaves' hitmaker, said: "I think I've learned boundaries maybe from him. Like I used to, when we were eating, spend half of our meal just taking pictures with people, so we have rules at the table. If we're eating at a restaurant, we'll wait until we're done [to take pictures].
"He's taught me to take a little time for myself and I've taught him stop a little more to take time and take pictures and stuff. So I think we've both taught each other a lot and kept it a good balance."
In a new behind-the-scenes video from her recent naked photo-shoot for Paper magazine, the 34-year-old star also revealed that Kanye, 37, didn't have a phone for four years until they started dating in 2012.
She said: "Kanye didn't have a phone for four years. Especially when we first started dating, it was rude if we brought our phones with us out. So I learned from him just to not really bring my phone."

Tori Spelling has no regrets


Tori Spelling has no regrets about airing her marriage troubles on her reality TV show.
The 'True Tori' star, who was devastated when her husband of six years Dean McDermott, 48, cheated on her late last year, admits her "life has been very public," but believes she has a better relationship with her fans as a result.
The 41-year-old former 'Beverly Hills 90210' actress said: "I feel like I've always had a good connection with my fans and everyone out there. I'm very open and honest about my life. My life has been very public, and it's hard to keep things private. I'd rather get the truth out there than have people write what they think the truth is."
Tori insists she is glad she let a camera crew into their home to document their issues.
She told PEOPLE.com:"It was my way of making sure that if people are going to make up stories, I'm going to tell them exactly how it is so they don't have their chance to do that."
The couple, who have four children together, Liam, seven, Stella, five, Hattie, three, and Finn, two, are determined to stay together and are looking forward to a quiet family Christmas.
Tori said: "We're working really hard at our relationship and our family. We are truly committed to each other."

Kim Kardashian West praises Pippa Middleton’s ‘amazing booty’


Kim Kardashian West thinks Pippa Middleton "has an amazing booty."
The 34-year-old reality TV star is a huge fan of the Duchess of Cambridge's younger sister, who recently insisted her butt was "not comparable" to the 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star's derriere even though her posterior shot to fame when she wore a tight-fitting dress at Duchess Catherine and Prince William's wedding in 2011.
Asked about the British beauty's comments, Kim told E! News: "I love her. She has an amazing booty. She's beautiful."
Pippa, 31, recently insisted her backside was not in the same league as Kim's and tipped her to be crowned Rear of the Year.
In political weekly magazine The Spectator, she wrote: "The 'Rear of 2014' award undoubtedly goes to Kim Kardashian, after her posterior exploded all over the internet last month.
"I must say that mine -- though it has enjoyed fleeting fame -- is not comparable."
Her comments came after Kim posed naked and covered in baby oil for a magazine last month.
The brunette beauty recently credited her husband, Kanye West, for helping her to feel more body confident, but in an upcoming episode of 'Kourtney & Khloé Take The Hamptons,' Kim admits she is tired of her curves and wants a "flat a** now."

Taylor Swift serenaded by Aretha Franklin


Taylor Swift admits it will take her "decades to recover" after Aretha Franklin serenaded her.
The 'Blank Space' hitmaker was overjoyed when the legendary soul singer, 72, sang 'Happy Birthday' to her at the Billboard Women in Music luncheon on Friday (12.12.14), just one day ahead of her 25th birthday.
Before sharing a Vine video clip of the special performance on Twitter, the blonde beauty tweeted: "Aretha Franklin just sang 'Happy Birthday' to me and it will take me decades to recover. #goals"
The 'Shake It Off' hitmaker, who was named the Billboard Woman of the Year in October, was also thrilled to officially accept the accolade at the event in New York City.
During her speech, she said: "Being named Billboard Woman of the Year for a second time is this amazing early birthday present.
"I turn 25 at midnight tonight, and I fully intend to celebrate like it's 1989 [the title of her latest album]. I knew it was a bad joke when I wrote it, and I just did it anyway!"
Taylor also used the opportunity to gush about her greatest moment of 2014, according to Billboard.com.
She said: "The greatest moment of the year for me was when my fans went out and proved that if you provide them with a bold statement and pour your life into an album, they'll buy it."

Angelina Jolie has the Chickenpox


Angelina Jolie has got the Chickenpox.
The 'Unbroken' director "can't believe" she has contracted the viral infection, in which a person develops extremely itchy blisters all over the body, and will have to skip the film's premiere in Los Angeles on Monday (15.12.14).
In a video message on Friday (12.12.14), the 39-year-old star said: "I just wanted to be clear and honest about why I would be missing the 'Unbroken' events in the next few days, which is that I found out last night that I have Chickenpox. So, I will be home itching and missing everyone and I can't believe it because this film means so much to me. I just can't believe it, but such is life. There it is. Send everyone my love and I hope everything goes well!"
In an official statement, released via Universal Pictures, she also admitted she is "heartbroken" to miss the upcoming screening of the gripping movie depicting the life of the late World War II hero and former Olympic distance runner Louis Zamperini, as she was set to attend it with his family and his pal Russell Allen 'Phil' Phillips' daughter.
She said: "You have to laugh at the timing. I was sure nothing could stop me from supporting 'Unbroken'. I am heartbroken to miss our premiere, most of all the chance to be there with Louie's family, Phil's daughter Karen, veterans and all the guests who are coming."
Angelina has six children, Maddox, 13, Pax, 11, Zahara, nine, Shiloh, eight, and six-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne, with husband Brad Pitt and it is likely several of them have the contagious disease as well.
