Khloe Kardashian’s family staged intervention


Khloe Kardashian's friends and family staged a 'marital intervention' to persuade her to file for divorce from husband Lamar Odom.
The reality TV star, who ended her marriage to the former basketball star in December after he allegedly cheated on her and used drugs, found it difficult to make the decision alone and sisters Kim and Kourtney joined friend Malika Haqq to give her advice.
Khloe was seen on 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' last night (09.03.14) speaking to Kim, who told her: "You will feel guilty for awhile, thinking, is there more I could have done?"
She added that she felt guilty for "a year" after separating from her second husband, Kris Humpries, after just 72 days of marriage, to which Khloe replied: "Oh, stop. This is torture. I can't!"
The episode saw Khloe, 29, and her family discussing her troubled marriage to Lamar, 34, who has only been heard during phone calls during the recent series.
Kim opened up to viewers and said: "As much as I love Lamar, it's just so hard to see your sister live in this relationship where you don't know when she's going to speak to him next."
She said Khloe had given up her life for the past couple of years to try and get her marriage back on track and claims watching the situation unfold was "heart-breaking."
Khloe admitted: "For me, it's hard to make a decision just alone" and Kim assured her they wanted to help, as she wiped away tears and said: "We know it's hard on you. You've told him, 'Come fix this marriage!' "
Later on, Kris Jenner told Khloe: "I heard you actually filed [for divorce] today", before telling the cameras, "It's so hard to watch my daughter go through this heartbreak."

Charlie Sheen quits drinking


Charlie Sheen has given up drinking.
The 'Anger Management' actor - who was fired from 'Two and a Half Men' in 2010 because of his wild partying and erratic behaviour - is said to have embarked on a detox programme because the show is close to going into syndication so he knows it is important to stay focused because of the financial benefits of the sitcom continuing to thrive.
A source told RadarOnline.com: "It's all about dollar signs for Charlie. He knows that if he can keep himself together and keep 'Anger Management' going strong, it will pay off big time.
"So for the last two weeks he's completely stopped drinking and has been detoxing. He's taking it really seriously!"
The 48-year-old star's fiancée, Brett Rossi, is said to be instrumental in his decision to get "healthy", and she has also taken control of his finances.
The source said: "Brett is cleaning house in more ways than one.
"She's been cracking down on the way Charlie frivolously spends his money and she's also keen to get him healthy. Charlie's not someone to usually be bossed around, but he's so head over heels for Brett and respects her and knows that she just has his best interests at heart."
It was recently claimed that Charlie had thrown 'Anger Management's filming schedule into chaos with a number of absences.
However, his spokesperson denied the claims, telling The Hollywood Reporter: "We did not shoot last week because another member of the cast was sick. Charlie is always ready, willing and able to shoot 'Anger Management' and looks forward to returning on Monday."

Richie Sambora: Heather Locklear is ‘hot’


Richie Sambora thinks his ex-wife Heather Locklear is "hot".
The Bon Jovi guitarist split from the 52-year-old actress - with who he has 16-year-old daughter Ava - in 2007, but insists they are closer than ever.
He said: "She's doing her thing on Franklin & Bash and she looks better than ever. She's still hot!
"We're better friends now than ever."
Richie believes it was essential for the sake of their daughter for the former couple to keep relations cordial.
He told People: "If you don't get along you are messing the kid up. That's what happens.
"So you have to put that before whatever s**t is going on. Communication has got to come first. There's a cooling off period obviously, as you know - it takes time. It was almost 10 years ago though. So we're fine.
"Thanksgiving or Christmas, we all spend it together."
The 54-year-old musician is very proud of his daughter and thinks she is the person she is today because of her upbringing.
He said: "She's a really good kid. You have to give them the tools to take care of themselves and almost force them when they are small to make decisions on their own so they then get in that groove.
"I never talked down to her, even when she was a kid. [Now] I rarely have to reprimand her. She's fantastic."

Elisabeth Moss: Acting is ‘very strange’


Elisabeth Moss thinks acting is like stripping.
The 'Mad Men' star believes her profession is "very strange" and thinks being paid to "pretend" to be someone else is very unlike most other professions.
She said: "Acting is not stupid, but it's a very strange profession, honestly. My job is to get up, and get dressed in someone else's clothes, and go and pretend that I'm someone else. Who does that? Nobody does that. Strippers and actors do that."
The 31-year-old actress - who is best known for playing Peggy Olsen in the advertising drama - admitted she never hangs on to her character and finds it easy to leave her work behind at the end of the day.
She admitted in an interview with New York magazine: "I'm the worst. I barely hang on to it while we're filming. I am totally that person that they yell 'Cut' and I'm making jokes and doing stupid stuff. It's fake to me to be any other way."
Elisabeth married 'Saturday Night Live' star Fred Armisen in October 2009 and they split just eight months later, and though she admits their relationship and subsequent divorce was "awful and horrible", she is pleased she went through the ordeal when she did.
She said: "Looking back, I feel like I was really young, and at the time I didn't think that I was that young.
"It was extremely traumatic and awful and horrible. At the same time, it turned out for the best. I'm glad that I'm not there.
"I'm glad that it didn't happen when I was 50. I'm glad I didn't have kids. And I got that out of the way. Hopefully. Like, that's probably not going to happen again."

Tamara Ecclestone’s perfect in pink baby shower


Tamara Ecclestone had a "totally perfect" baby shower.
The Formula 1 heiress was thrown a lavish pink-themed party by her younger sister Petra Ecclestone on March 1 to celebrate the impending arrival of her first child with her husband Jay Rutland.
She told the new issue of HELLO! magazine: "It was all pink and totally perfect. There were pink and white sofas, a barman mixing special pink cocktails, a four-tier cake and photos of me as a baby. Petra had thought of absolutely everything - my favourite chocolate crepes, amazing pastries, sweets with the words 'Bun in the oven' written on them, and personalised love hearts saying 'Baby girl'.
"She'd also compiled amazing goodie bags containing a pink nail polish she'd made up for me, called 'Tamara's knocked up'. I loved it all."
Tamara - who is expecting a girl - was joined by her sisters Petra and Slavica, as well as 20 of her closest friends, for the plush party at exclusive venue The Orangery at Kensington Palace, London, which was decked out with roses, cushions, cakes and candles for the occasion and she was thrilled by the effort her sibling made.
The 29-year-old socialite added: "Petra has impeccable taste and is a perfect party planner. She went to so much effort to make sure it would a wonderful occasion and she got everything spot on. Even the baby shower invitations - a gold rattle inside a pink box - that she sent out to my closest family and friends were just right.
"But I had no idea of the details of the day except what time I had to be ready, where I was going and that I had to wear an outfit with a hint of pink. I was so excited the night before, I could hardly sleep."
Guests also took part in a special game of Pin The Tail on The Donkey, which involved blindfolded pals attempting to stick a mock-up image of Tamara's unborn baby on a giant photo of her proudly showing off her bump.

Lindsay Lohan wants ‘integrity’


Lindsay Lohan wants to live "with integrity".
The troubled actress - who has endured a string of legal problems in recent years and been to rehab six times - is determined to make a fresh start and wants to put her problems behind her.
Speaking on her new docu-series 'Lindsay', which debuted in the US last night (09.03.14), she said: "Living with integrity and in control of my own self - that's the life I want now...
"I'm excited to start this new chapter, so it's going to be good."
The 'Mean Girls' star was also seen telling programme director Amy Rice that she now has "inner peace".
She said: "I'm in this really good place where I have this inner peace right now. All the distractions and chaos that go on outside just in daily life in general don't really affect me anymore."
The programme also saw Lindsay search for an apartment in New York and left devastated when she found one she liked - but was told it required a $10 million insurance policy.
She exclaimed: "I can't do that. I'm not Oprah!"
The 27-year-old actress stayed in a hotel while apartment hunting, and after a month in the luxury residence, she admitted she was finding the experience upsetting because she associated it with a "crazy phase" in her life.
She said: "It's the first time I'm really getting a place in New York and it's really chaotic.
"I'm trying to figure out how to be sane and live, how to live out of a hotel, which I did when I was in a crazy phase in my life and that brings up a lot of memories and I hate it. ... And now I'm figuring out everything for myself with things being left up in the air constantly."
However, she insisted her housing struggle wouldn't send her out of control again.
She added: "I'm here. I'm showing up. I'm sober. And I'm dealing with it."

The Wanted’s Jay McGuiness in bar fight


The Wanted's Jay McGuiness was kicked out of a nightclub in Essex on Sunday morning (09.03.14) after being involved in a fight.
The 23-year-old star was enjoying a night out with his band mate Tom Parker, Tom's girlfriend Kelsey Hardwick and a group of friends at The Villa nightclub in Epping, Essex, on Saturday night (08.03.14), but was later removed from the club in the early hours of Sunday morning (09.03.14).
A witness told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Everyone was standing around the front door and there was a big kerfuffle in the foyer.
"Jay then got dragged out by the bouncers.
"He was shouting and screaming and they were trying to pull him back. He was putting up a struggle."
Tom, 25, had been booked as a host for the club night and decided to make the occasion a celebration for his girlfriend's birthday, but the night appeared to have taken a turn for the worst when Jay found himself involved in a brawl.
The 'Walks Like Rihanna' hitmaker's spokesman confirmed the incident yesterday (09.03.14), saying: "There was an altercation in the club that Jay found himself in the middle of. He ended up with minor cuts and bruises."
Tom was spotted with his band mate's blood on his shirt after helping his pal into a taxi before making his own way home with Kelsey and their friends, but it's unclear as to what started the fight.
The witness added: "Someone said they were going to check the CCTV to see exactly what happened.
"He was huddled in a corner for a while. Jay got shoved about a lot but he was pretty smashed."

Rob Kardashian given health warning


Rob Kardashian's doctor warned he risked death if he didn't change his lifestyle.
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star - who has been battling with fluctuating weight - sought medical help on the urging of his mother and manager, Kris Jenner, and the family were horrified by the results of his medical testing.
In scenes which aired on 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' in the US last night (09.03.14), the doctor advised Rob was at risk of developing diabetes and eventual organ failure, prompting Kris to give her 26-year-old son a stark warning.
She told him "Your liver is shutting down.
"This is life-threatening at this point. You can only sustain this level of being unhealthy for so long."
Rob - whose father Robert Kardashian died aged just 59 from oesophageal cancer in 2003 - agreed he needed to make changes and was later praised by his personal trainer for his hard work in the gym.
The shocking news came weeks after the sock designer admitted to his older sister Khloe Kardashian that his weight gain has made him depressed.
He recently said: "I've never felt so down depressed in my life. I'm trying to be in the fashion industry and I'm not going to be taken seriously when I'm fifty pounds overweight. It's embarrassing to the family."
