Danielle O’Hara had health scare with son


Danielle O'Hara rushed her baby son to hospital when he stopped breathing last week.
The 30-year-old model had a medical "scare" with her youngest child, six-month-old George, when she discovered he was struggling to take in air.
Luckily, he was diagnosed with a virus when he was taken to hospital and is now on the mend.
Writing in her Closer magazine column, Danielle - who recently competed on diving TV show 'Splash!' - said: "I had a scare with George last week. He has a mat under his cot that detects if he stops breathing and it went off.
"He was OK when I got to him, but I rushed him to hospital and the doctors diagnosed him with a bad viral infection. He's feeling better, but it really shook me up."
The brunette beauty is finding home life "hard" at the moment because her soccer player husband Jamie O'Hara - with whom she has two other children, Archie, three, and Harry, two - has flown out to America for a month, and she is missing him like mad.
She said: "Jamie flew to LA last week to go to a fitness camp for a month. The decision was quite last minute but Jamie felt it was important for his football career to be in top physical condition,
"It'll be extremely hard without him though and I'm missing him loads.
"Some people might think it's odd for me and Jamie to spend such a long stretch apart, but it's not an issue - our marriage is rock solid ... and we can still Facetime each other every day to feel close."

Charlie Sheen wants Brooke Mueller to move back into mansion?


Charlie Sheen wants Brooke Mueller to move back into her Beverly Hills home.
The 'Anger Management' star - who has been locked in a bitter custody war with Brooke over four-year-old twins Bob and Max - previously announced he intended to sell the Mulholland Estates mansion, which he bought for her and is situated close to his own home, but he has now relented as he wants to keep the boys nearby when she regains custody of them.
A source told RadarOnline.com: "Charlie now wants Brooke to move back into the house after she regains custody of the boys.
"It's important to Charlie that the boys be in the same neighbourhood and close by. So, he is no longer threatening to sell the house. Brooke stays in the house during her custodial visits with the twins and she is looking forward to moving back in."
Charlie previously wanted to sell the $4.8 million house - where the twins are currently living with their uncle Scott Mueller - and it was expected Brooke would be out the house before the end of last year.
A source previously said: "Charlie knows someone that is extremely interested in buying the house. He hasn't formally listed the house for sale, because he is hoping to just do a private sale, without having the bother of putting it on the market.
"Brooke might be out of the house by the end of the year. If Charlie's potential buyer backs out, he will formally list it. The house will likely sell very quickly because inventory is extremely low, and Mulholland Estates is a very desirable place to live."
Brooke - who has been to rehab 20 times - lost custody of the twins in May last year when she was put under involuntary psychiatric hold, stemming from an alleged drug overdose.
Bob and Max were being looked after by another of Charlie's ex-wives, Denise Richards, until they displayed violent behaviour to her own children, and were placed in the care of Brooke's brother Scott.
Charlie - who married Brooke in 2008 before divorcing her in 2011 - also has a grown-up daughter Cassandra from a previous relationship and daughters Sam, nine, and Lola, eight, with Denise. He recently got engaged to girlfriend Brett Rossi.

Kate Mara warns family about on-screen nudity


Kate Mara's family don't approve of her stripping on screen.
The 30-year-old actress is currently starring in the Netflix original series 'House of Cards' alongside Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright and admits she has to warn her parents if she takes her clothes off in any of the scenes.
She said: "They [my parents] don't love it that I occasionally have to take off certain items of clothing. We sort of have an unspoken rule of, if my character on 'House of Cards' or during a photo-shoot I have to be in my underwear or something, I sort of send out a family text about it.
"'Beware of the first 30 seconds of 'House of Cards' - you will be disturbed.'"
Kate has always tried to reassure her family about her on-screen antics and says her phrase 'It's just acting dad' has become so popular in her household, her father has named his racehorse after it.
Speaking on the 'Late Show with David Letterman' last night (18.02.14), she said: "I sort of told my dad from a very young age that, 'It's just acting dad', so it's in his brain now. He owns a horse, a racehorse, that he recently called 'it's just acting dad' so I think he's used to it now."

Christina’s Aguilera’s fiance spent year planning ring


Christina Aguilera's new fiance spent a year designing her engagement ring.
The 33-year-old singer's boyfriend, Matt Rutler, popped the question on Valentine's Day (14.02.14) and he spent months planning the proposal because he wanted to "reflect" their "journey" in the jewellery.
A source told Us Weekly: "Matt has been working on the ring for over a year and been working on the proposal for several months.
"Matt spent a year's time mastering all the specific details with the designer to signify their love and their journey together - it's all reflected in the ring."
Matt - who has been dating Christina since they met on the set of her 2010 movie 'Burlesque', on which he was a production assistant - took inspiration from two of the 'Beautiful' hitmaker's favourite pieces of jewellery and thought carefully about the meaning behind the nine gemstones which accompany the diamond.
The source continued: "Matt knew what her two favourite rings were and married them together into one, incorporating all the details that she specifically loved. Every jewel and diamond placing has a reason and meaning for being placed there."
The coloured gemstones were placed beneath the main diamond "so they always touch her actual skin in forever-encouraging love ... and surrounding her at all times."
The band is also woven with diamonds to symbolise how the couple's bond will continue to grow stronger.
Christina was previously married to music executive Jordan Bratman, for five years until 2010, and they have six-year-old son Max together.

Matthew McConaughey thankful for success


Matthew McConaughey has a "lot to be thankful for".
The 44-year-old actor has won a string of awards for his portrayal of AIDS victim Ron Woodruff in 'Dallas Buyers Club' and is "proud" of the recognition - including an Oscar nomination for Best Actor - his work is receiving.
He said: "For the next two months, I'm playing the character of Matthew McConaughey, an actor proud of the films he's been in.
"And if any of those films or [my] performances are in awards shows, [I'm] going to go, heart high and head up, and look them all in the eye and say, 'Damn right this is a great time in my career.' That's the role I'm in now. I've got a lot to be thankful for."
Matthew - who has children Levi, five, Vida, four, and Livingston, 13 months, with wife Camila Alves - famously shed over 40lbs to play Ron but he says having the focus and dedication the role needed was "exciting".
He told Variety: "I've got a saying; When faced with the inevitable, get relative. The inevitable was, I'm going to do this. I've got support from my family that insulates me.
"I surrounded myself with everything I needed to go on this adventure. And the focus was exciting. I said to myself, 'We're taking a trip, McConaughey. This is a story you want to tell. Those adventures you talk about - you're on one now.' "
And he claims the "clarity" his weightloss gave him was tough on those around him.
He added: "I went from being cranky to hyper aware. That clarity is hard on other people, because my bulls**t meter was zero. I was like, 'Speak up. No adjectives or adverbs. Just nouns and verbs. Speak!' "

Conor Maynard: I won’t make same mistakes as Bieber


Conor Maynard says he won't make the same mistakes as Justin Bieber because he's "good at not breaking the law".
The 21-year-old singer recognises there are temptations all around for young pop stars like himself and 19-year-old Justin, who has had several run-ins with police recently including being arrested and charged with driving under the influence (DUI), resisting arrest and driving without a license in Miami in January.
Conor has assured his fans he has no plans to copy his pop peer but he does have sympathy for the pressure Justin must be under as one of the world's most famous musicians.
The 'R U Crazy' hitmaker quipped to BANG Showbiz: "I don't worry about ending up like Justin. I can just not do any illegal stuff! I feel like I'm good at not breaking the law. That's always a good trait to have as a person.
Speaking about Justin's situation, he added: "As an outsider looking in I feel like that maybe he feels as though he can't do anything right, no matter what he does he's going to be shot down. Maybe in he thinks, 'If you want me to do things wrong, I'll show you.' But you never know what's going on in people's heads, you never know the pressures and the stresses that Justin has."
Conor - who is busy working on his second album - insists he has been able to stay grounded because he has kept a close group of trusted friends around him that knew him before he became famous.
The singer - who performed at the Brooklyn Bowl as part of BRITs Week at The O2 on Tuesday night (19.02.14) and was supported by Lewis Watson - explained: "I've kept the friends I already had, 100 percent. I've heard that advice from a million people. When Wiley and I shot our video to 'Animal' lots of my friends came down and Wiley said, 'Make sure you keep your friends around as much as you can and for as many things as possible.' I've taken that advice on board and keep the same people around me. At the moment I've got the right people around me that keep me on the right path."

Jaden Smith: I’m here for you Shia LaBeouf


Jaden Smith has reached out to Shia LaBeouf, insisting he has a "fellow insane" friend in him.
The 15-year-old star tried to visit the 27-year-old Hollywood actor - who wore a brown paper bag over his head to the German premiere of his new film 'Nymphomaniac' earlier this month and has repeatedly insisted he is no longer famous - at his #IAMSORRY silent art installation in Los Angeles, and though they never got to meet, Jaden wants Shia to know he is "seriously" there to give him support.
Jaden - who is the son of actors Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith - wrote on Twitter: "I Waited In Line Today On Beverly Blvd To See @thecampaignbook I Never Got See Him But I Had A Very Important Message To Deliver.
"I'm Here If You Need A Fellow Insane Person To Talk To. But I'm Seriously Here Not Like One Of Those I'm Here For You's That Everybody Says. (sic)"
Jaden - who only follows Shia on Twitter - added: "It Was A Message That Only Could Be Understood Artist To Artist. @thecampaignbook I'm Here For You I Believe In What Your Doing (sic)"
Meanwhile,Shia's 'Nymphomaniac' co-star Felicity Gilbert is concerned his recent antics are "dangerous" because the public don't understand what he is doing.
She told The Metro newspaper: "I think this is his own project. His own creation. But I think people don't necessarily sympathise with him that easily and so it is a dangerous thing to do."

Kanye West making movie with Brett Easton Ellis


Kanye West is making a movie with Brett Easton Ellis.
The controversial author was initially reluctant to work with the 'Bound 2' hitmaker, but was instantly won over when he heard the rapper's latest album 'Yeezus', though he is unsure when the project will go ahead.
He said: "It's in Kanye Land, and that's subject to a whole other time frame." offered Ellis on the status of the film.
"He came and asked me to write the film. I didn't want to at first. Then I listened to 'Yeezus'. It was early summer last year and I was driving in my car. He'd given me an advance copy, and I thought, regardless of whether I'm right for this project, I want to work with whoever made this. So f**k it, I said yes. And that's how it happened.
"That was seven or eight months ago. We'll see what happens."
As well as being a fan of Kanye's music, the 'American Psycho' author finds him a fascinating person, though he admits he doesn't always come across well to the public.
He added in an interview with Vice: "I really like him as a person. I know he comes off in this performance-art way in the press, but if you're just alone with him in a room talking for three hours, it's kind of mind-blowing."
