Charlize Theron ‘didn’t see’ relationship with Sean Penn coming


Charlize Theron didn't see her relationship with Sean Penn coming.
The South African actress was surprised how her longstanding friendship with the actor and director blossomed into something more last year.
She told Vogue magazine: "What I guess I am trying to say is: A friend kind of stepped into that role [of boyfriend], and I really didn't see it coming.
"Sean and I have known each other for eighteen years. We were just really good friends. And it's been slow going because you are aware that you could screw that up and lose it.
"It just kind of naturally happened, and before I knew it, I was in something that was making my life better."
However, the 38-year-old star - who was previously in a relationship with the actor Stuart Townsend for nine years until 2010 - warns she's not interested in getting married anytime soon.
She added: "I really do understand the importance and what that ceremony represents to so many people, but it's just such a personal thing.
"Let's put it this way - I never had the dream of the white dress. And watching other people getting married? I think it's beautiful for them, but ... it's supposed to be this night of celebrating love, and all you see is a couple separated all night making sure everybody else is OK. And as you get older, you start sifting through the stuff that really matters."

Hulk Hogan surprises neighbours by walking tiny Chihuahuas


Hulk Hogan says people "freak out" when they see him walking his pet Chihuahuas, Pebbles and Pumpkin Spice.
The 60-year-old WWE Superstar has revealed his neighbours in North Clearwater Beach, Florida, are always surprised when they catch him out with the tiny pooches as they expect him to have more manly dogs because he's a muscle-bound wrestling legend.
During an appearance on British TV show 'Loose Women', he said: "My wife Jennifer is an amazing cook and she's into all the organic stuff and the juicing and the healthy stuff but I'm the guy who walks the Chihuahuas. Everybody expects me to walk these big dogs around but I always walk the girl dogs, Pebbles and Pumpkin Spice. Everybody freaks out when they see me with these little dogs."
Hogan's five-decade spanning career in the ring and on the big screen has made him one of the most recognisable people in the world but he insists when he's at home with Jennifer he's just Terry Bollea.
He said: "Wherever I go - my real name is Terry - and so when I go outside people don't go 'Hey! Terry, how you doing?' They go, 'Hey Hulk! What's up brother?' I have to be Hulk Hogan the moment I walk out the door but when I come home I take the bandanna off the bald head and I don't wear red and yellow, and I put my board shorts on because I'm a beach bum. At home I get to be Terry."
Hogan is currently in the UK as part of the 'WWE Live WrestleMania Revenge' tour and will act as the host of 'SmackDown' when the TV show is taped at The O2 arena in London on Tuesday night (20.05.14).

Kanye West to have pink pool at wedding


Kanye West has installed a pool filled with pink water at his wedding venue.
The rapper and fiancee Kim Kardashian are set to tie the knot this weekend, and though their big day has been shrouded in secrecy, guests - which include the reality TV star's family and Kanye's best friend Jay Z and his wife Beyonce - have been directed to the Chateau Louis XIV in Paris, France, though it is still unclear where they will undertake a legally-binding ceremony as the couple have not spent long enough in the city to be allowed to wed there.
As well as having the pink pool, the couple have also had a huge air freshening system installed into the building as it is situated close to a major sewage works.
A source told RadarOnline.com: "They have gone to great lengths to make sure the place smells lovely."
As well as their celebrations in Paris, the couple - who have 10-month-old daughter North together - are also said to be planning to exchange vows in Florence, Italy.
Officials told RadarOnline they have granted permission for Kanye and Kim to host 200 guests a 16th-century fortress in Fort Belvedere, with the couple expected to bring an American Protestant minister to the proceedings.
However, authorities in Italy said no plans have been made for a civil contract required for a legally-binding ceremony.

Marilyn Manson mourns mother


Marilyn Manson has vowed to make his late mother "proud".
The 'Beautiful People' hitmaker has been left devastated after his beloved parent Barbara Warner lost her battle with dementia last Tuesday (13.05.14) aged 68 and paid tribute to her on his Facebook page.
He wrote: "To my Mother, the first and greatest believer in me...I hope I see you again someday. But not now, because I have more things I promised I would do.
"I'll make you proud and satisfied that you know you made the son you wanted.
"I love you."
The funeral service was private, and Barbara's family requested for donations to be made to the Alzheimer's Foundation.
Manson - who was previously married to Dita Von Teese and engaged to Evan Rachel Wood - is currently dating fashion model and photographer Lindsay Usich, and previously admitted he is keen to start a family with her so that their little one can ''breathe profanity''.
He explained: ''My girlfriend Lindsay's twin just had a baby and I've started to think that maybe I wouldn't mind passing my demented genius on to some small thing who can set fire and breathe profanity.''

Jennifer Lopez nervous about first book


Jennifer Lopez is nervous about baring her soul in her new book.
The singer's first ever autobiography about her life and loves, 'True Love', is out in October and she is worried about making her most intimate thoughts public.
She admitted to People magazine: "What's funny is, I didn't start off the project wanting to bare my soul in print. It started off as a diary of the year I went on tour ... and when I was on the road, it became something else. I really surprised myself, and I realised, 'Oh my God, I'm writing this book.'
"Even to this day, I think, 'Do I put this book out there?' I did a lot of soul searching and praying, because I don't ever want it to be mistaken for anything other than it was, which is sharing something I learned with people I could help."
The 'On The Floor' hitmaker, who became the first ever female recipient of the Icon Award at the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday (18.05.14), believes her fans might be surprised by some of the confessions in the book, especially regarding the breakdown of her eight-year marriage to Marc Anthony - the father of her six-year-old twins Max and Emme - in 2012.
She explained: "I changed a lot as a person. It was a very transformative moment in my life. I had gone through a lot of changes and then confronting fears of having never toured and being a mom on my own. It was a real shellshock time for me."

Rochelle Humes to christen daughter Alaia-Mai


Rochelle Humes is having her daughter christened for her first birthday.
The Saturdays singer and presenter, whose daughter Alaia-Mai with husband Marvin turns one tomorrow (20.05.14), is marking the special occasion by having her blessed at church.
She told BANG Showbiz: "We're getting her christened and it will be a joint thing, we're looking forward to it."
Asked how she feels about her daughter turning one, she said: "It scares me. I feel really old when I say, 'Ohhh it's gone so quick', I try not to say that because I sound like my mum but it really has gone quickly. I don't want her to grow up anymore, I want to keep her how she is."
The 25-year-old star, who presented an award with Marvin at the British Academy Television Awards last night (18.05.14) at London's Theatre Royal, thinks motherhood changes "everything" and there are many things she now has to go without despite loving being a mum.
She explained: "I'll never have that sleep again where you completely sleep for ages."
Meanwhile, Rochelle said she had a great day watching Marvin's JLS co-star JB Gill marry dancer Chloe Tangney in Mount Stuart on the Isle of Bute recently.
Rochelle added: "It was a beautiful day. It's our second anniversary this year and I would like to renew my vows one day, but ask me in 20 years."

Robert Pattinson’s sweaty sex scene


Robert Pattinson's sex scene with Julianne Moore was "sweaty".
The 28-year-old actor got intimate with the actress in the back of a car in their new movie 'Map To the Stars' and he says shooting the raunchy moment was a "wonderful experience".
Robert was quizzed on who was the "better passenger", Julianne or Juliette Binoche, who his 'Cosmopolis' character had sex with in the back of a limousine, prompting him to blush and giggle before composing himself to answer.
The actor - who was seated next to Julianne at the Cannes Film Festival press conference - responded: "They are both like sevens...
"Obviously, Julianne. It was a wonderful experience, just extremely sweaty."
Meanwhile, the British star has ruled out ever reprising his 'Twilight Saga' role of Edward Cullen in the future.
He insisted to Variety: "I couldn't do another 'Twilight' movie. I'm too old."
Robert previously admitted his 'Cosmopolis' sex scene was awkward because of the confined space in the car.
He said: "There's not enough space to really do it. So she's banging her head on the ceiling. It ended up being kind of funny. But it's supposed to be kind of erotic."

Heidi Klum buys ex’s mum a house


Heidi Klum bought her ex-boyfriend's mother a house.
The 40-year-old model splashed out on a home for Martin Kirsten's mum in their native South Africa, and also gave the bodyguard a "hefty" financial settlement after they parted ways in January.
A source told RadarOnline.com: "Martin says Heidi treated him well so he would keep his mouth shut.
"Martin has been spending thousands of dollars on dinners, parties and clothes."
It has been claimed that Martin ended his 18-month romance with the 'America's Top Model' host - who raises children Leni, 10, Henri, eight, Johan, seven, and Lou, four, with ex-husband Seal - because he was "sick" of having to look after the household while she worked six days a week.
A source said: "He was sick of being a househusband. He did everything for the children.
"He says Heidi is a lovely person, but he had to do what was right for him. He's really sad."
Since splitting from Martin, Heidi has embarked on a romance with 27-year-old art dealer Vito Schnabel and recently admitted she is smitten with him.
Asked what makes their relationship work, the German beauty said: "I look at people with my heart. I look for their kindness and humour and compassion."
