Big Sean says Ariana Grande is ‘very special’


Big Sean says Ariana Grande is "very, very special" to him.
The rapper, who has has been dating the 'Problem' singer for two months, has revealed their relationship is going very well.
Asked about their romance, the 26-year-old rapper told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show on Friday (26.09.14): "I'm like a big fan, I know where I'm at. I'm at 'On Air with Ryan Seacrest'. [But] I like to keep my personal life personal. You know what I'm saying? But I am going to tell you this: That Ariana is very, very special. She's very special to me."
He added: "Everything she has going on is good with her, everything I have going on is good with me, everything between me and her is good, and I'm just going to leave it at that."
The 'Dance' hitmaker, who split from 'Glee' actress Naya Rivera in April, usually plays coy when asked about the 21-year-old beauty, but he also recently admitted they have "great chemistry."
He said: "Me and her make a lot of music together and the chemistry between me and her when we work is great.
"We got more in the works too. I feel like her voice is crazy, [just] that that big voice comes out of her is insane. I was probably one of the first people to tweet about her music; me and her been friends for years before anything else..."

The 'No Air' singer, who recently ended her relationship with the 25-year-old R&B star after three years of dating, broke her silence on Twitter on Friday (26.09.14) to assure her fans she is doing okay and has no regrets about their time together.
The 24-year-old beauty tweeted: "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."
Meanwhile, 'Talk Dirty' hitmaker Jason insists there was nobody else involved in their split.
He told UsMagazine.com: "I spent three great years with Jordin and she is one of the most amazing people that I have ever met. But as in all relationships there are ups and downs and at this time we have decided to amicably part."
He added: "Infidelity, cheating or deceit played no part in our relationship or our break-up, and I hope that people respect our privacy as we move forward with our lives."
He also recently insisted there is no bad blood between them and blamed their break-up on their hectic work schedules.
On Thursday (25.09.14), he said: "Everything is cool, man. It's not a bad situation. You know, it's not one of those kinda things."
The former couple's split came as a shock to fans as just last month Jason gushed about the former 'American Idol' winner and said he instantly knew he wanted to marry her.
He said: "I knew that pretty early on. I felt that when I was in the hospital with my neck injury. I felt different ... I felt like I needed her in my world."

Sarah Hyland says ex-boyfriend’s mother refused to help


Sarah Hyland claims Matthew Prokop's mother refused to help her before she secured a restraining order against him.
The 'Modern Family' star, who was recently granted a temporary protection order against her ex-boyfriend, 24, after claiming she feared for her life following their split last month, alleges in court documents that his mother said her son would kill himself if she dumped him and refused to try to convince him to seek treatment for his issues.
The 23-year-old star said she received a shocking text message from his mother after she asked her to come to their home in Los Angeles to "help me get him help."
According to the MailOnline, Sarah states in court documents: "She sent me a text stating that if I broke up with him, he would kill himself, that it would be my fault and that she was not coming.
"I let her know that I was scared for my personal safety and had reached the point where I could not take it anymore and that I was going to end the relationship whether she came or not."
Julie Bowen, who plays the young actress' mother on the comedy series, helped her stage an intervention and end her five-year romance with Matthew before she secured a temporary protection order.
The 'High School Musical 3: Senior Year' actor allegedly checked into rehab following their split in mid-August and Sarah claims in court documents that she was advised by the director of his treatment facility to obtain the restraining order before his release last weekend.

The 27-year-old rapper, who split from the 30-year-model on Monday (22.09.14), contested his estranged wife's bid to gain sole legal and physical custody of Sebastian, 19-months, in new court documents filed in Los Angeles today (26.09.14) and has hired high profile lawyer Laura Wasser to represent him in their increasingly bitter divorce.
Like Amber, the 'We Dem Boyz' hitmaker wants their prenuptial agreement to be enforced, according to gossip website TMZ.com, and has also agreed to pay her spousal support.
Sources said their prenuptial contract states she will receive upwards of $5,000 per month.

Kanye West hits back after being heckled


Kanye West hit back after he was booed at Paris Fashion Week.
The 'New Slaves' rapper and his reality TV star wife, Kim Kardashian West, were heckled after they reportedly showed up 40 minutes late to Lanvin's runway show on Thursday (25.09.14), but he insisted it was only because they were backstage with the brand's designer Alber Elbaz.
The 37-year-old star walked across the runway to confront his critics and said: "Don't boo us. Alber asked to see us. Don't boo us. We're not late. We're not late."
The duo, who have 15-month-old daughter North, are said to delayed the start of the show, which only kicked off once they took their seats in the front row.
Other guests present included American Vogue editor Anna Wintour and French actress Catherine Deneuve.
The incident came just hours after 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star Kim, 33, was attacked by Hollywood prankster Vitalii Sediuk as she made her way to the Balmain show with her husband and mother Kris Jenner.
The Ukranian-born media personality, who previously accosted stars including Brad Pitt, Bradley Cooper, Leonardo DiCaprio and Will Smith, was captured on video moving towards the reality TV star as she exited her car and tackled her causing her to fall forward but her bodyguard caught her before she hit the ground.

Kelly Brook ends engagement to David McIntosh


Kelly Brook and David McIntosh have ended their engagement.
The 34-year-old star, who got engaged to the former 'Gladiators' performer in March after just one month of dating, announced their split on her Twitter profile tonight (26.09.14).
The glamorous model tweeted: "It's a sad Day but I wanted to share with you that David and I are no longer engaged (sic)."
She added: "I love and respect him and wish him all the best."
But the duo appear to have had a major bust-up, as on Wednesday (24.09.14) David tweeted: "Missing you @IAMKELLYBROOK far too much that's a joke im super hard (sic)"
News of their split comes just days after sources claimed they were in the midst of finalising their wedding plans for next year and were planning to spend £300,000 on a luxury yacht for their Greek honeymoon.
Kelly previously admitted she and the 28-year-old body-builder had thought about eloping to Las Vegas, as they were struggling to find the perfect venue.
She said: "We change our minds all the time [about where to get married.] Some days we're like, 'Let's run to Vegas and do it.' "
The former couple recently moved to Los Angeles so Kelly could take advantage of more TV opportunities.
She recently said: "The UK is my home. I love it here. I'd love to work on television here, but it's hard to get good work here for me. I have to go to America and pursue work. There's a handful of women on television and so many trying to get the roles when you are in there, it's a bit of a cat fight and you feel like it's not a nice environment. Whereas in America it sees there is a lot more opportunity, I don't get the same vibes from America."

Carey Mulligan named War Child UK’s new Global Ambassador


Carey Mulligan has been named War Child UK's new Global Ambassador.
The 29-year-old actress, who is married to Mumford & Sons frontman Marcus Mumford, decided to join forces with the organisation after her older brother, Owain Mulligan, became familiar with the charity while stationed in Afghanistan with the British Army and is determined to help fundraise and highlight issues facing vulnerable children in war zones around the world.
Speaking about the role, the 'Great Gatsby' star said: "When I started to learn about War Child's programmes, I knew immediately that I wanted to be involved.
"It's unbearable that the places that are being targeted are the very places that children should be safe. Children no different to my three-year-old godson. Children are children, no matter where they are in the world and they should have no place in war."
The actress will visit some of the organisation's overseas projects - in either Gaza, Afghanistan, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo, Iraq, Uganda or Syria - later this year and is supporting its new Radio 4 appeal, which will launch this weekend.
Speaking about Carey's appointment, War Child UK CEO Rob Williams said: "We are really delighted that Carey has chosen to work with us to protect children caught up in conflict zones. I know that her commitment to this is immensely strong, based on a deep concern for children facing extreme situations in conflicts around the world. Carey has already brought a huge amount of energy, creativity, and a real determination to make a big difference by working with War Child UK. We know that, with her help we will be able to reach more children in desperate circumstances."
