Taylor Swift always wants to cry


Taylor Swift is "always" close to tears.
The 24-year-old singer - who was just 17 when she released her first album - admits sometimes it can be hard to deal with the pressures of finding success so young.
She said: "I'm always, like, one half step away from crying, at any point."
The 'Shake It Off' hitmaker finds the best way to deal with her success is to spend time with her friends.
And one new pal she has made is 'Girls' creator Lena Dunham, who she has quickly become "best friends" with after initially thinking the actress was mocking her.
She explained in an interview with talk show host David Letterman: "I Googled her and I saw her quoting my lyrics and I thought, she has to be doing that ironically, she has to be making fun of me...I have this big loser complex from school.
"Then we met in person...and we've been best friends ever since."
Taylor has previously dated the likes of Harry Styles and Jake Gyllenhaal and admitted she is happy to be single and not "shopping" for a new boyfriend because she hasn't been with any "lousy" men in some time.
She said: "I haven't had any lousy boyfriends in the last year and a half.
"I'm just not looking around for them, at them, I'm not shopping."

Sandra Bullock raced to give medical attention to a collapsed extra on the set of her new movie. The 50-year-old star was quick to help out when one of the extras in her new movie 'Our Brand is Crisis' slumped to the ground on Sunday (26.10.14), so t...

Katie Price’s pigs Jane and Chrissy to be bridesmaids


Katie Price's pigs Jane and Chrissy will be bridesmaids when she and cheating husband Kieran Hayler renew their marriage vows.
The 36-year-old star was left devastated earlier this year after finding out the former stripper had slept with her pals Jane Pountney - who was maid of honour at her weddings to Kieran and Alex Reid - and Chrissy Thomas, but she has wreaked revenge of some sort on her former friends by giving her swines their monikers.
Speaking about the pair of porkers in her drift - which also includes another piggy, Percy - she said: "They will be the bridesmaids when me and Kieran renew our vows."
Katie is known to be a big fan of animals and has amassed a collection of 176 in total, including 80 chickens, two baby pygmy goats, five horses and four dogs called Kevin, Derek, Trevor and Vera.
Following his cheating antics, Kieran has now quit stripping and plastering and become a farmer and the couple, who sell hens' eggs to shops in west Sussex, are planning to go into business by turning their farm into a mini-zoo for children to visit.
Katie added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: "We want to set up the farm as a little zoo for kids. He's got a poultry licence now but eventually we want to host children's parties there, too.
"We'll be a self-sufficient farm. We're looking for a name, we've come up with things like Hayler's Cocks.
"But Kieran said, 'No, Kate, they're eggs.' So we haven't found one yet.
"We sell different eggs, quail, turkey.
"Kieran does all the farming. He has nothing to do with plastering or stripping anymore."
Katie previously threatened to divorce Kieran after finding out about his infidelity, but the former model underwent a dramatic U-turn by sticking by him as he had therapy for sex addiction, and the pair are now set to renew their vows before the year is out.
The couple have two children together, two-month-old daughter Bunny, and son Jett, 14 months, and Katie has also son Harvey, 12, from her past relationship with Dwight Yorke and son Junior, nine, and daughter Princess, seven, from her marriage to Peter Andre.

Jim Carrey won’t wed again


Jim Carrey doesn't want to marry again.
The 'Dumb and Dumber To' actor - who was previously wed to Lauren Holly for a year and Melissa Womer for eight years - insists he won't "voluntarily" tie the knot again, even if he meets the perfect woman.
Asked by Howard Stern if he would consider marriage for a third time, he said: "I just don't see it as necessary at this point. Is it really sacred? I don't know."
Then asked what he would do if the right woman came along, he added: "I can't say that I know how I would feel if I meet somebody that knocks my head off.
"I can't make hard fast rules about the future but I wouldn't voluntarily go that way."
The 52-year-old star - who dated Jenny McCarthy for five years until 2010 - is wary of getting romantically involved with anyone else in the spotlight again because the relationship overshadows his career.
He explained: "If you hook up with someone who is famous, you become a sellable commodity and that's the most important thing in those magazines.
"It's not what you're doing in the movie. It's who you are with, what are you doing, are you breaking up?"

Neil Patrick Harris wants funny Oscars writers


Neil Patrick Harris has issued a public appeal for "funny" writers to help him with the Oscars.
The 'How I Met Your Mother' actor is to host the 2015 Academy Awards and though he is "thankful" to have landed the prestigious job, he doesn't know yet what will happen during the show.
He told 'Access Hollywood': "I legitimately have no idea what the content of the show will be yet.
"I'm just thankful that I get to be a part of it this year.
"We are actively hiring writers so if you know anyone funny, Tweet me."
The 'Gone Girl' star has previously admitted he wants to keep the Oscars - which take place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on February 22 - "classy".
The 41-year-old actor said: "I don't want them to be super derivative of other shows that I've done. I don't want it to seem like I'm doing the same award hosting gig that I did on the Tonys, just now on a different stage ...
"I want to also just make sure that it's a classy event. I've always loved the Oscars and have great respect for its history, and the gowns, and the classiness of it."

Katie Price received messages from Oscar Pistorius


Katie Price received messages from Oscar Pistorius during his murder trial.
The 36-year-old star has confessed she was shocked to find the Paralympian had direct messaged her on Twitter while being tried for the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp after she spoke out about the controversial case earlier this year.
Katie said previously that she would not "judge" Oscar - who was cleared of murder but found guilty of culpable homicide and jailed for five years - based on media reports of the night Reeva was shot dead, and a month later he followed her on Twitter.
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "He was direct messaging me during the case. It's weird, isn't it? He was saying, 'Thanks for the support', and stuff. Just general chit-chat. He was the first one to message me.
"Because I mentioned him in my column, he was referencing that. I wasn't exactly supporting him, but everyone who goes through a trial will be the only one who knows what really happened. You're innocent until you're proven guilty."
The brunette beauty admits it was her brother Dan that first noticed Oscar, 27, had been sending her messages, and at first she didn't believe him.
She explained: "He said, 'Oh my god, Kate - have a look at who's direct messaged you on Twitter'. I said, 'It's got to be fake'. He said, 'No, it's from his verified account'."
And now Katie has revealed she would like to meet her unlikely acquaintance.
She added: "I would interview him, I would love to."

David McIntosh ‘hurt’ by Kelly Brook split


David McIntosh was "hurt" by his split from his fiancée Kelly Brook.
The former 'Gladiators' star - whose engagement to the brunette beauty ended abruptly when she suspected him of cheating on her last month - has confessed he was left devastated by the split from the "love of his life".
Despite recently reuniting with Kelly, 34, David insists the relationship isn't his main priority and he is preparing to focus all his energy on himself.
He told The Sun newspaper: "I'm not laughing or joking about what happened.
"I was a serious person in a serious relationship - and it hurt. But now I'm doing everything for myself."
David also revealed that the pair - who were originally planning to wed next year - are no longer planning to tie the knot, and expressed concern that the model has stopped following him on Twitter.
When informed Kelly has deleted him from her social media page, he said: "Did she actually unfollow me?
"That's something I'll have to check. Maybe she's broken up with me again...
"But no, we're not planning the wedding now. After the recent turn of events we are taking it slow."

Dr. Luke sues Kesha’s mother


Dr. Luke is suing Kesha's mother.
The music producer - who has been accused by the 'Tik Tok' hitmaker of sexually, physically, verbally and emotionally abusing her - has filed a lawsuit against Pebe Sebert, claiming she orchestrated a smear campaign of lies against him and tried to extort him in desperate attempts to get the 27-year-old singer out of her contract with him.
According to the documents, which were obtained by TMZ, Luke claims the showbiz matriarch wanted Kesha to break her contract but because it was so tight, she then fuelled her anger over the deal and urged her daughter to spread false claims he raped her in order to "shame" him into lettting her out of the agreement.
When Luke refused to back down, he claims Pebe then made it clear they would continue making the allegations against him until he agreed to terminate the contract.
In the suit, the producer - who has already filed a defamation claim against Kesha - claims both the 'Die Young' hitmaker and her mother have admitted under oath that he never attacked the star.
He is seeking over $75,000 in compensatory damages and punitive damages on top of that.
It was recently revealed Kesha said they never had sexual relations and he never offered her drugs during a court deposition in 2011, but her lawyer, Mark Geragos, claims she was forced to lie at the time because the 41-year-old record label boss allegedly threatened her.
The blonde beauty was quizzed by lawyers about her relationship with Dr. Luke - real name Lukasz Gottwald - when they were both being sued by her former manager three years ago.
The 'Blow' singer, who sought treatment in rehab for an eating disorder in January, tried to resolve her issues with Dr. Luke privately before she decided to sue him in a bid to dissolve their contract.

Cheryl Fernandez-Versini doesn’t ‘need’ kids


Cheryl Fernandez-Versini doesn't "need" to have children.
The 31-year-old singer - who married second husband Jean-Bernard Versini in July after two months of dating - insists she doesn't want to have kids yet as she is busy doting on Bobby, her best friend Kimberley Walsh's eight-week-old son, and looking after 17-year-old Lauren Platt, one of her finalists on UK TV show 'The X Factor'.
Asked if she wants to have children, she said: "Oh god. Kimberley just had her baby, a boy who I consider as a nephew. I don't need my own right now.
"I've got two... not so much in Lola [Saunders, another contestant], but I feel like I've got a little baby to take care of in Lauren on the' X Factor', so I'm doing alright with 12 nieces and nephews, somebody on 'X Factor', and a baby with my best friend."
However, the 'Crazy Stupid Love' singer could change her mind as she also admitted she has learned to "live in the moment" to enjoy life more.
Speaking to the Daily Mirror online, she said: "You might think one day everything is fine, and then the next you get the rug pulled from under your feet.
"You have to reevaluate and reconsider, so living in the moment is the only way you can enjoy your life."
These days, Cheryl's main concern is about those she cares about being "happy and healthy".
She said: "[What do I care about?] That everything else outside of work is happy and healthy. Family, friends, loved ones, dogs. Not necessarily in that order, but I won't say the other order as I might get in trouble."
