Keira Knightley is pregnant


Keira Knightley is pregnant.
The 'Imitation Game' actress is reportedly expecting her first child with husband James Righton - who she married in May 2013 - and is already past the first trimester, "multiple" sources told the New York Post newspaper's Page Six magazine.
Keira, 29, sparked speculation she was pregnant at the Moët British Independent Spirit Awards on Sunday (07.12.14) when she stepped out in an embroidered and billowy dress much different to her usual fitted style and appeared to stay away from alcohol.
The 'Atonement' star has previously admitted she wants to have children but insisted she would never give up her career to raise a family.
Speaking last year, she said: "Would I want to be a stay-at-home mother? No. On the other hand, you should be allowed to do that, as should men, without being sneered at."
There was more good news for Keira yesterday (10.12.14) after she was nominated for the Outstanding Female Actor in a Supporting Role Screen Actors Guild (SAG) award and she said she was "honoured" to be up for both that award - which she will contest with Meryl Streep, Patricia Arquette, Emma Stone and Naomi Watts - and Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture with her castmates.
She said: "Thank you so much to the Screen Actors Guild. It's such an honour to be nominated by your peers and in the company of this group of talented women. I'm thrilled to celebrate this morning with Benedict Cumberbatch and the cast."

Melissa Rivers pays tribute to Joan


Melissa Rivers hailed her "fearless" late mother Joan in a speech yesterday (10.12.14).
The 'Fashion Police' producer spoke publicly for the first time since the outspoken comic passed away from surgery complications in September at the Hollywood Reporter's 2014 Women in Entertainment breakfast in Los Angeles and admitted things have been "different, to say the least" since she lost her famous parent.
She said: "My mother was fearless. And I don't mean she didn't have any fears, I mean that even though she was only 5'2, she stood tall and walked through it. And that's what made her such a brilliant performer. She was willing to say what others were thinking and too frightened to admit.
"She made fun of herself first and foremost which gave her the right to joke about others.
"She never apologised for a joke, and no topic was taboo and she was fine with that.
"Truth be told, my mother never thought of herself as a woman working in a man's world. She thought of herself as a comic that had to be funnier than anyone else...she just wanted to do her job and that was to make people laugh.
"There's been tribute after tribute to my mother where she's been called everything from a legend, to a trailblazer, to a bitch. [But] the bottom line is, she was really just my mother."
Melissa admitted her mother would have been very "grateful and proud" if she had still been alive for the celebration - but joked she would also have been stealing from the tables.
She concluded her speech saying: "If my mother were here this morning, she'd not only be grateful and proud, she would be beyond herself. She would be sitting at the table beaming, while very discreetly shoving croissants and silverware into her purse. On behalf of my mother -- thank you so, so much. It's an honour."
Fellow funnywoman Sarah Silverman also paid tribute to Joan as she introduced a video tribute to the late star.
She said: "Joan Rivers was not done. At 81 she lived a life that could jam pack ten lifetimes, but she wasn't done, she left us unfinished. She was as funny last August as ever. In fact, she was doing her best work.
"She once said she didn't feel she found her comedic voice until she was 70. I love that.
"For true blue stand-up comics like Joan Rivers, there is no end game, it's a process, it's a lifestyle. The only thing that was going to stop Joan from being a comedian was death, so, touche death. And f**k you very much."

David Beckham honours military


David Beckham praised British servicemen and women at The Sun newspaper's Military Awards last night (10.12.14).
The 39-year-old star presented the Hero Abroad Award to the crew of HMS Illustrious to celebrate the warship's decommissioning after more than three decades of service.
Speaking at the ceremony, he said: "It is truly humbling to be here tonight. It's a true honour to give this award."
The former footballer handed the gong to the ship's first skipper, Admiral Sir Jock Slater, and its last, Captain Mike Utley, who both provided help to nations around the world, with the ship most recently working in the Philippines last Christmas following typhoon Haiyan.
As part of a tribute to the ship - nicknamed Old Lusty - 'Unbroken' director Angelina Jolie also sent a video message in which she thanked the 1,000-strong crew for risking their lives for the greater good of others.
Elsewhere at the ceremony, music mogul Simon Cowell, 55, said the work of British servicemen abroad made him proud to hail from the nation.
He said: "It is humbling and it puts what we do into perspective. You're feet away from people who have risked their lives. It makes me proud to be British."
Other attendees at the ceremony included Prince Charles, musician Rod Stewart, 'Homeland' actor Damian Lewis and singer Alesha Dixon.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Toni Garrn split


Leonardo DiCaprio and Toni Garrn have "officially split".
According to Us Weekly, a source revealed the couple have called time on their relationship after dating on and off for two years, and the pair were never seen walking a red carpet together.
Reports of the split come just days after Toni, 22, admitted in a magazine interview that she has always dreamed of having four children but admitted she is enjoying not having any responsibilities at the moment.
She said: "I'm a family person, and I always wanted four kids. But we'll see. We'll start with one at some point, I don't know.
"I never just do nothing. A weekend off? Let's go somewhere. Let's fly somewhere.
"I kind of know one day I'll have responsibilities and not be able to do this. But I don't have a dog. I don't even have a plant. I have nothing to take care of, which I love."
What's more, the pair's parting also comes after the 40-year-old actor was seen leaving a South Beach club with 20 models in the early hours of Sunday morning (07.12.14).
An eyewitness said: "He left with 20 girls. Leo and 20 girls. He is my hero.
"He was overflowing with models everywhere."
The German beauty is not the only model Leonardo has dated in recent years as he previously enjoyed a five-year on/off relationship with Gisele Bundchen.
His penchant for an on/off relationships continued when he dated Bar Refaeli from 2005 to 2011 and his other stunning conquests also include Blake Lively, Erin Heatherton, Kristen Zang and Emma Miller.

Keanu Reeves waited 20 minutes to enter his own party


Keanu Reeves waited 20 minutes to get into his own party.
The 'Matrix' actor didn't act like a diva when he was forced to sit out the first 20 minutes of his wrap party for new film 'Daughter of God' after some confusion with the bouncers meant he was left standing outside the club The Leonora in Chelsea, New York in the pouring rain.
His limo driver Ronny Sunshine shared: "Keanu was really patiently waiting. I don't think he said anything to the bouncer, like, 'I'm Keanu.' No one recognized him.
"Keanu looks very ordinary. It was raining, but he just waited for his two friends to come. He didn't act like he had money. I just thought he was a rock 'n' roller."
The owner of the club which held the celebratory bash was apologetic, even though he hadn't been told by the 50-year-old star that anything had taken place.
He told the New York Post newspaper's Page Six: "I didn't know he was kept waiting, and he didn't say anything to me.
"He's a very relaxed person."
Once inside, a source also revealed how the kind actor found someone's credit card on the floor and proceeded to make an announcement at the DJ booth in the hopes of reuniting the card with its owner.

Harry Styles thinks about food on stage


Harry Styles thinks about food while he's performing.
The One Direction hunk tries not to let his attention wander while he's on stage with bandmates Liam Payne, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson but sometimes can't help slipping into a daydream about what he wants to eat after the show.
Asked what he thinks about on stage, he said: "Every show is different, but sometimes I do wonder what I'll be having for my tea that night. But I try to remain focused."
The 'Steal My Girl' hitmaker often gets sent gifts from fans and one of the most bizarre presents he has received was a customised toilet seat.
He said: "Someone sent me a toilet seat for my birthday. They had written all over it - and that was my birthday present."
One Direction have won a string of awards and performed sell-out concerts all over the world, but Harry is most proud of meeting Britain's Queen Elizabeth because of what it meant to his family.
He told Top of the Pops magazine: "I always find it's the things my parents freak out about that makes me feel the most proud.
"So for example, there's loads of stuff like the VMAs that my grandma doesn't understand, but when we met the Queen, they freaked out about it."

Katie Price: My house is haunted


Katie Price thinks her house is haunted.
The former model wants to call in a medium as she and her husband Kieran Hayler keep hearing unusual sounds and smelling strange scents so she is convinced there is a spirit in the property and she doesn't want to upset it while the building is being renovated.
She said: "Kieran keeps smelling cigarettes and I Googled it and spirits normally smell of smoke and flowers.
"I am getting a medium in. Because we're knocking things down, we're disturbing the spirits. I am 100 per cent sure there's a ghost."
However, not all the mysterious goings-on can be attributed to a ghostly encounter.
Kieran said: "The other day Katie woke up at 4am swearing blind she could hear a ghost but it turned out to be Kevin the dog outside our room!"
Meanwhile, the couple - who have pigs, goats, ducks, chicken, geese and turkeys - are planning to open their home up to the public so kids can visit the animals.
Katie - who has kids Harvey, 12, Princess, nine, and Junior, seven, from previous relationships and 16-month-old Jett and four-month-old Bunny with Kieran - added to OK! magazine: "Next year we want to open it up as a petting zoo for children."
Kieran said: "I've spent a lot of time making sure the animals are tame so it would be silly to waste the opportunity."

Kirsten Dunst cast in Fargo


Kirsten Dunst has been cast in the second series of 'Fargo'.
The 32-year-old actress and 'Breaking Bad' star Jesse Plemons, 26, are to play married couple Peggy and Ed Blomquist in the TV drama.
According to broadcaster FX, Peggy is "a small-town beautician with big city dreams", while Ed is a butcher's assistant "who wants to be supportive of his wife's self-discovery, even if he doesn't quite understand it".
The next series is set in 1976 - 30 years before the events of the first season - and the story will take place in Sioux Falls, South Dakota and Luverne, Minnesota.
Series creator Noah Hawley has revealed the plot will focus on a case being investigated by a younger Lou Solverson - Molly's father in the first series, played by Keith Carradine - who has recently returned from the Vietnam War.
Molly will appear as a four year old and her mother, Lou's wife, will also feature
Shooting on series two is due to start in Calgary, Canada, in January and it is scheduled to air next autumn.

Nick Jonas has a ‘healthy’ sex life


Nick Jonas has a "healthy" sex life.
The 22-year-old musician - who has been in a relationship with model Olivia Culpo for 18 months - wore a purity ring when he was a teenager in the band The Jonas Brothers which symbolised he had made a vow not to have sex before marriage as part of his Christian beliefs.
Nick admits he has embraced his sexuality over time and lovemaking is now a part of his life just like any regular person.
In an interview with Alexa Magazine, he revealed: "As far as the sexuality goes, I think that just happened for me over time, I think sex is part of a healthy life. So I have tried to be, in my transition into adulthood, as honest with myself as possible with sex and sexuality and what it means to me so I can try to be as healthful as I can."
However, one thing the 'Jealous' singer won't do is make love to any of his own songs as that would be too "uncomfortable" for him and his partner.
When asked if he'd ever bedded a girl with one of his tracks playing in the background, he said: "No, absolutely not, you can't do that. Or with music from other people you know. That'd be so uncomfortable."
Nick - who was in The Jonas Brothers with his siblings Kevin and Joe - recently admitted he doesn't regret wearing his purity ring because he was fully committed to staying chaste.
He said: "I don't regret (wearing a purity ring). I think that it was an important part of my childhood. As I grew up, I sort of figured out what was important to me, my own belief system, which we all grow up, we all live life and find out what's important to us. I am now comfortable with who I am and what I believe in."
