Dsvid Letterman to retire in 2015


David Letterman will retire next year.
The 66-year-old presenter will step down from his hosting duties on his programme 'The Late Show with David Letterman', which he has fronted for 20 years, in 2015.
The beloved host announced his news to the audience during the taping of the programme this afternoon (03.04.15), but it is believed CBS will release a statement prior to the show airing at 11.35pm EST today.
The news surfaced earlier today after the bassist for R.E.M. Mike Mills, who is appearing on the show this evening, took to Twitter to share the announcement.
He wrote: "Dave just announced his retirement #2015 #muchlovedave. (sic)".
David is the longest-serving late night talk show host in TV history after fronting NBC's 'Late Night' for 11 years, before taking on the 'Late Show' in 1993.
He extended his contract with CBS last year, which will see him stay on the 'Late Show' until the end of 2015.
David's news comes just over a month after his longtime rival Jay Leno, 63, announced his retirement from his programme 'The Tonight Show' in February.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin ‘butted heads’ over parenting


Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin reportedly "butted heads over parenting" their children.
The former couple - who announced last week they were splitting after 10 years of marriage - clashed over their ideas of raising their kids Apple, nine, and Moses, seven.
A source told Us Magazine: "'They butted heads over parenting."
The 'Iron Man 3' star and her Coldplay rocker spouse had successfully managed to juggle their busy careers and family life, but friends believe Gwyneth's "controlling" ways became too much for Chris, 37.
The source explained: "Gwyneth would snipe at Chris and say things to him like, 'You're such a moron'.
"For a long time they balanced each other out, but she was a control freak. Chris couldn't take it anymore."
It was recently reported the pair were keen for a quick divorce and are trying to come to an amicable custodial and financial agreement, as they have no interest in airing their dirty laundry in a trial.
Meanwhile, despite their split, the pair have vowed to stay friends for the sake of their children and are currently enjoying a family vacation.
Another source said: "They're trying to make it as easy as possible for the kids. The whole plan is to do this as amicably as possible."

Abbie Cornish a ‘hopeless romantic’


Abbie Cornish is a "hopeless romantic".
The 31-year-old actress admits she moved from Australia to Los Angeles seven years ago after following her heart because falling in love is her biggest weakness.
Speaking about leaving her native country for the US, she told Porter magazine: "I never came [to LA] for work, I came for love. I'm a hopeless romantic. That's probably my weakest point."
At the time of her move, the blonde beauty was dating Ryan Phillippe after they met on the set of 'Stop-Loss' in 2006, the same year the US hunk divorced Reese Witherspoon, with whom he has two children.
However, the couple split up three years later in February 2010 and Abbie moved out of their shared home in California shortly afterwards.
Ryan then went on to date model Alexis Knapp, whom he has two-year-old daughter Kailani with, in the summer of 2010, before they broke up a few months later.
Meanwhile, Abbie, who hasn't had a high-profile relationship since, insists she's currently single but recently admitted she's "totally open to having a relationship".

Kimberley Walsh to marry ‘eventually’


Kimberley Walsh would like to get married "eventually".
The former Girls Aloud singer is expecting her first child with her long-term boyfriend Justin Scott and, although she has been avoiding answering whether she'll tie the knot for a while, she insists she'd like to get hitched at some point.
Speaking on Britain's lunchtime talk show 'Loose Women' today (03.04.14), she said: "Eventually I would like to [get married]."
"I've been batting this question off for so long, and I thought, 'finally when I'm pregnant they won't ask me that anymore, surely they will be more interested in the baby.'"
"But I get asked more!"
Meanwhile, the 32-year-old star, who is four months pregnant, was left a little shaken up last month after she took a tumble and broke her wrist and, although her baby was unharmed, she admits the fall was frightening.
She explained: "You just panic, those instincts just kick in immediately. I thought, 'I can take my entire body weight on my wrist!'. So I've had a broken wrist to deal with, but otherwise it's good."

Joel Kinnaman thinks Olivia Munn talks fast


Joel Kinnaman thinks Olivia Munn talks too fast.
The 33-year-old American actress admits her Swedish beau, whom she has been dating since 2012, tells her to slow down when she is speaking to him because he has difficulty keeping up and understanding her.
Speaking in the May issue of Redbook magazine, she explained: "He tells me 'Baby, slow down! I cannot understand you.' And I think to myself, 'Just listen faster!'"
The brunette beauty and the 34-year-old hunk first sparked rumours they were dating after they were spotted at the second season premiere of 'The Killing' in Los Angeles in March 2012 together, and a friend at the time claimed they had bonded over their similar sense of humour.
An insider said two years ago: "He is a super-normal guy and she is a really down-to-earth girl and they just get each other.
"They are on the same wavelength intellectually, and they have the same sense of humour. It's been going on for a little while and it's heading towards being serious. They are extremely happy together."

Charlie Sheen hasn’t paid child support for 3 months?


Charlie Sheen reportedly hasn't paid Denise Richards child support for three consecutive months.
The 'Anger Management' star has failed to pay his ex-wife his monthly maintenance money of $55,000 for their daughters Sam, 10, and Lola, eight, since February.
A source told RadarOnline.com: "As of Wednesday night (02.03.14), Charlie still hadn't paid Denise ... and Charlie still hasn't paid for February or March either. In all, Denise is owed $165,000 in back child support."
It was reported last month the 48-year-old star was going to the Los Angeles court to ask the judge to cut the $55,000 he gives Denise each month because he believed the payment was too high considering he hasn't spent much time with his daughters over the past "several months".
A source said previously: "Charlie hasn't spent any time with the girls in several months and thinks it's ridiculous that he continues to pay Denise $55,000."
The former couple fell out in December after Charlie claimed Denise, 42, deliberately took the children on a vacation over the festive holiday so they couldn't spend Christmas with him.
Charlie also has a grown-up daughter Cassandra from a previous relationship and four-year-old twins Bob and Max with his third wife Brooke Mueller.

Lily Allen’s pee emergency


Lily Allen was forced to relieve herself on a motorway.
The 'Air Balloon' singer - who has two children, Ethel, two, and 14-month-old Marnie, with her husband Sam Cooper - had to pull her car over by the side of a road as she was desperate to pee, and she was so impressed with her public urination, she even shared a picture with her twitter and Instagram followers.
She tweeted: "P***ing on the hard shoulder #gettingolder (sic)"
And then added: "6m p**s (sic)"
While many of her followers saw the funny side of the updates, others were not impressed, with one writing "grow up", another adding "grim" and one user sarcastically commenting "classy".
Lily, 28, isn't afraid to share intimate details in public, and earlier this week she spoke of her teenage confusion on how to groom her pubic hair.
She said: "Can we just talk about pubic hair? Being a teenager I was endlessly confused from one boyfriend to the next. They wanted completely different things [down there]. One said no, another wanted her it jazzy. They probably didn't know what they liked really."

Kaley Cuoco: I’ve had breast implants


Kaley Cuoco has admitted she had breast implants when she was 18.
'The Big Bang Theory' actress had previously brushed off speculation but has now confirmed she went under the knife and claims it was the "best decision" she ever made.
The 29 year-old appears on the cover of Cosmopolitan magazine wearing denim hotpants and pulling her top aside to show off a black bra.
As a teenager in 2002, she previously spoke about Hollywood stars feel the need to have surgery, saying: "I'm only 16 years old but I can understand why many other stars have chosen to change their looks."
In the new interview, she also admitted she was obsessed with her public image and couldn't help Googling herself.
Kaley said: "I started reading [online reports] and thought, 'Maybe I need to make more of an effort and not go out in my UGGs and be disgusting.' So I started putting on make-up.
"And they started writing, 'Wow, someone really likes being in front of the camera' and 'Her hair's done now for coffee.' I couldn't do anything right. Why am I reading this stuff? But I'm obsessed. I openly admit to being totally insane about that."
Meanwhile, Kaley also told the magazine she felt like a "rock star" on her wedding day, when she married Ryan Sweeting in December, just six months after they started dating.
She said: "I admit it happened fast, but that's who I am. When we met, I knew he was the one. [At my wedding], I felt like a rock star and a badass. What was amazing in that room, it was so full of love. It was like nothing I'd ever been to before, and it was exactly what we wanted it to be. It was the eighth wonder of the world, the greatest wedding of all time."

Halle Berry: All women multitask


Halle Berry is a "machine".
The 47-year-old actress is currently juggling filming new TV show 'Extant', promoting her film 'Frankie & Alice' and caring for her children Nahla, six, and Maceo, five months, but doesn't think her workload is too much for her as women were "built to multitask".
She said: "I know I'm not alone. Women have done this forever. We are built to multitask. When you think, 'How can I not sleep, nurse and work?,' you just do. We are machines like that. We are built to do this."
Halle - who has Maceo with husband Olivier Martinez and Nahla with ex-boyfriend Gabriel Aubry - was delighted to bid farewell to her "gypsy" lifestyle and stay rooted in one place to work in TV, even if she does work long hours.
She told People magazine: "I no longer can afford to have the gypsy life. This [show] allows me to stay home and still do something really creative and cool that I love."
"My kids can come visit me and I can tuck them in at night."
The actress recently admitted she is trying to find "balance" in her life.
She said: "What I'm learning to do, trying to do right now, is find the balance.
"My baby is always with me on set. I bring my daughter after school. I have a nursery there, a playroom for her, so I try to make it as nice as I can for them to spend time with them, see them."
