Paloma Faith had phone sex with stocking fetish man


Paloma Faith used to have phone sex with a guy who had a stocking fetish.
The 32-year-old singer admits when she worked as a sales assistant in lingerie store Agent Provocateur she would say naughty things down the phone to a man after he'd bought all the female members of staff the elastic garment.
Speaking on 'Alan Carr: Chatty Man' tonight (02.05.14), she is quoted by the Daily Star newspaper as saying: "We had some guy who had a stocking fetish who used to ring up, buy everyone on the floor a stocking and then ask us to tell him off on the phone.
"And we also had one window that said 'Peep Show' across the front and a lot of customers thought it was.
"Some used to go to the dressing rooms and try and have a look at people."
Meanwhile, the 'Picking Up The Pieces' hitmaker also revealed she almost killed Adele's dog after she cooked up some lamb kebabs at a dinner party hosted by Alan.
She confesses: "I gave them all food poisoning. I really like Alan and Adele and I did not mean to do that - I have not spoken to Alan until now.
"I did buy the meat from a really good supermarket, which I won't name but I'd love to sue."
However, despite giving Adele's adorable five-year-old Dachshund Louie an upset stomach, Paloma blames the 'Someone Like You' singer for feeding him the meaty treat.
She explains: "She should not be giving lamb kebabs to her dog anyway ... I'm sorry."
'Alan Carr: Chatty Man' airs on Channel 4 tonight at 10pm.

Shakira’s baby son likes travelling


Shakira's son likes travelling on planes.
The 'Can't Remember to Forget You' hitmaker admits she will be announcing her upcoming tour soon and, although it will be hard juggling a young child, she believes her 15-month-old son Milan, whom she shares with her beau Gerard Piqué, will adjust well to being on the road.
She told 'Entertainment Tonight': "[He] has to [come with me]. I have to figure it out. I was actually an hour ago having a conversation about that because I think I'm gonna have to announce my tour pretty soon. And it's going to be a challenge with a baby like Milan but he's so adaptable and so friendly and so sociable.
"He likes travelling. He likes planes. He wants to go. He's a rolling stone, just like his mama."
The 'The Voice' USA mentor recently admitted that motherhood has changed every aspect of her life and she now finds herself thinking about her son's future.
She said previously: "Everything is different. Maybe the biggest change is that I think about the future more, what the world will be like for him when he grows up. But when it comes to living, it's all about the present."

Courtney’s dad can ‘prove’ her involvement in Kurt Cobain’s death


Courtney Love's father has claimed he can "prove" she was involved in her late husband Kurt Cobain's death.
Hank Harrison, who is estranged from his daughter, insists although he hasn't got evidence that the 49-year-old star "pulled the trigger" on the shotgun that ended the rocker's life 20 years ago, he's certain she was responsible for it.
Speaking to RadarOnline.com, he said: "No doubt she was capable. I can't prove she pulled the trigger, but I can prove her involvement to a high degree of certainty."
Hank believes the clues that point to his daughter are hidden in the handwritten note found in Kurt's wallet at the time of his death, which was released by police last week.
It reads: "Do you Kurt Cobain take Courtney Michelle Love to be your lawful shredded wife. Even when she's a bitch with zits and siphoning all yr money for doping and whoring. (sic)"
Hank explained: "If you read the true meaning of this small note, and place it in conjunction with the rest of the evidence, anyone with even half a wit will see that something dire and awful took place."
Courtney's father is also suspicious of the Seattle police for releasing new evidence - photographs of the death scenes last month - 20 years after the incident.
He added: "Nobody, except me, asked the obvious question, Why weren't they developed 20 years ago? They weren't developed because the police had already decided it was a suicide and didn't need any more evidence."
The Seattle Police Department re-examined Kurt's death on the 20th anniversary, but they found no evidence that would justify re-opening the case.
Kurt's death was ruled a suicide by a self-inflicted gunshot.

Kate Hudson doesn’t have time for wedding plans


Kate Hudson doesn't have time to plan her wedding.
The 35-year-old actress has been engaged to Matthew Bellamy for three years and, although she's adamant they'll tie the knot at some point, she admits their hectic work schedules has put their wedding plans on the back burner.
When asked how she finds time to plan her wedding, she told E! News: "You don't [have time to plan a wedding with a busy career], which is why I'm not [planning my wedding].
"We got a busy summer. We're really looking forward to it. I'm shooting a movie and so you know, we're doing a bunch this summer."
Meanwhile, Kate - whose four-year relationship with the Muse frontman has been the subject of recent speculation they are on the rocks - believes it takes a lot of "work" to share life with another person, and thinks the secret to lasting commitment is to accept one another's flaws.
She said previously: "Relationships are the most challenging things. It's where you do the most work in your life. You come face-to-face with yourself, and if you can deal with realising we're all flawed, accept it and work with it, you might have a really amazing, lasting relationship."
However, the blonde beauty - who has son Ryder, 10, from her marriage to Chris Robinson and two-year-old son Bingham with Matt - thinks the way to make a relationship work seems "simple" but isn't so easy in practice.

Sam Worthington cleared of paparazzi assault


Sam Worthington has been cleared of assault following a scuffle with a paparazzi on February 23.
The 'Avatar' actor has avoided being thrown behind bars after he quietly entered into a conditional dismissal deal on April 8 at Manhattan Criminal Court in New York.
The 37-year-old star was not present at court but his lawyer Stacey Richman took the non-jail deal on his behalf.
Sam's case had been advanced from its original date of May 8 and the press was not present at the proceeding.
The hunky star submitted a waiver to the court explaining he was "contractually committed" to work in Europe at this time and thanked the judge for working with his schedule.
He wrote in a statement: "I understand that as long as I continue to lead a law abiding life, this matter will be dismissed and sealed."
Sam was arrested earlier this year after he and his girlfriend Lara Bingle got into a scrap with a camera-wielding snapper in Greenwich Village, New York City.
The actor reportedly punched the photographer multiple times in the face after Lara claimed he kicked her shin.
Sam was charged with third-degree assault, third-degree attempted assault and second-degree harassment.
The photographer, named Sheng Li, was also arrested and booked for reckless endangerment, assault and harassment.
Sam previously got into an altercation with a photographer in 2012, when he was arrested and pepper sprayed following an argument outside a restaurant in Atlanta.

Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg wants small wedding


Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg want a small wedding.
The couple, who got engaged last month, can't decide whether to elope for their nuptials or stay in Los Angeles, but one thing they have agreed on is the venue size.
Donnie said: "I'd like a small wedding. A perfect wedding for me would be Jenny, myself, and our three boys."
Jenny added: "It would be this year or next year. We like the idea of getting away on a vacation, but we also like the idea of keeping it local."
However, the 41-year-old presenter admits she's already got lots of plans for her big day lined up if they don't hold their wedding in a different country.
She told Us Magazine: "Andy [Cohen] would officiate if we're not eloping! [I'd also] like to write my own vows."
Meanwhile, Donnie, 44, has proved he gets on well with Jenny's 11-year-old son Evan, whom she has with her ex-husband John Mallory Asher, as he asked the youngster for his seal of approval before he proposed to his mum.
A source said previously: "Donnie asked Evan if it would OK to ask his mum to marry him."
After Evan said yes, Donnie enlisted him to deliver handwritten notes with the words "will", "you" and "marry" written on them, to Jenny before he appeared wearing a T-shirt printed with the final part of the message, "me?"
Meanwhile, Donnie has sons Xavier, 21, and Elijah, 12, with his ex-wife Kim Fey.

Elizabeth Olsen has started planning wedding


Elizabeth Olsen has started planning her wedding.
The 25-year-old actress only got engaged to her boyfriend of two years Boyd Holbrook, 32, in March, but the brunette beauty is already thinking ahead to her big day and is looking forward to tying the knot soon.
Speaking in the June issue of the UK's Marie Claire magazine, she explained: "I'm relaxed about it [the wedding], but I am excited and planning ideas because it's fun - It's just like throwing a party to celebrate life. I love being in a relationship a lot."
Boyd reportedly popped the question just two weeks after Elizabeth's older sister Mary-Kate, 27, got engaged to her boyfriend Olivier Sarkozy, 44, but she insists she won't be having a double wedding with her sibling.
When asked if she and Mary-Kate were planning on having a joint ceremony, Elizabeth replied: "No, I just told her she gets to pick a date [for her wedding] first!"
Elizabeth may be busy planning her nuptials and juggling her busy acting career, but she's also already thinking about having children and where she'll bring them up.
She explained: "My mother would love it if I was in Los Angeles with kids, I loved growing up in LA, but I always think about places I've never been to before, like Oregon."
Meanwhile, the loved-up couple, who first met on the set of 'Very Good Girls back in 2012, currently reside in New York after moving in together in Brooklyn earlier this year.

Seth Rogen wants to smoke cannabis with David Beckham


Seth Rogen wants to smoke cannabis with David Beckham.
The 'Bad Neighbours' star openly admits to smoking the narcotic "every day" and he believes it would be "cool" if the retired soccer star joined him in lighting up a cigarette.
Speaking in FHM magazine, he said: "I would like to smoke a joint with David Beckham ... That would be cool.
"I pretty much smoke weed every day. I work a ton, probably much more than anyone would like to think I do. But I do also smoke weed, which I don't think stops me from working a lot."
The Canadian actor, 32, doesn't think smoking marijuana is a "big deal" because it's not frowned upon in his country, but he admits the laws surrounding the drug in different countries - such as in the US - confuse him.
He added: "Where I'm from, it's [smoking cannabis is] not taboo at all. To me it's like asking somebody if they have a beer at the end of the day or something. It's no big deal.
"The laws are ludicrous in America, too. You can unknowingly cross the border in some places and buy weed legally for recreational use, then in others you can go to f**king jail for 20 years for having the same amount of weed on you."
The full interview and photoshoot appears in this month's FHM Magazine, on sale now.

Peaches Geldof’s death ‘likely’ caused by heroin


Heroin is "likely" to have contributed to the death of Peaches Geldof, a senior police officer has revealed.
The 25-year-old star was found dead at her home in Wrotham, Kent, England, on April 7, and toxicology reports have now confirmed she had the drug in her system.
At a brief inquest in Gravesend, Kent, today (01.05.14), Detective Chief Inspector Paul Fotheringham, told the hearing: "Results concluded there was recent use of heroin and the levels identified were likely to have played a role in her death."
Police are now conducting an on-going investigation into how the blonde beauty got hold of the substance.
The hearing was told Peaches' husband Thomas Cohen found her "slumped" over the bed, with one leg on the floor, of the spare room at their home address.
The musician had been spending the weekend prior to Peaches' death at his parents' home in south east London with their eldest son Astala, two, but he returned to Kent with his mother after he failed to get in touch with his wife.
Paramedics pronounced Peaches dead at the scene, and police began the investigation but were treating the death as "unexplained with no third party involved".
The inquest also heard that Peaches' father Sir Bob Geldof formally identified her body.
An autopsy carried out by a Home Office Pathologist shortly after her death proved inconclusive.
The hearing was adjourned until July 23.
Meanwhile, Peaches was laid to rest last week at St Mary Magdalene and St Lawrence Church in Davington, Kent, where her late mother Paula Yates' funeral took place in 2000.
Paula died from an accidental heroin overdose 14 years ago at the age of 41.
