Cher's Britney bomb

Cher has told Britney Spears to "blow up" the paparazzi.

The 'Believe' singer advised the troubled star to escape unwanted attention from photographers by planting a car bomb, as she was pursued by snappers herself.

When asked if she had a message for Britney, Cher said: "Yeah, she should blow you guys up with a car bomb!"

Cher, 61, isn't the only star to have words of advice for 'Toxic' star Britney.

Heidi Klum, Robin Williams, Ellen DeGeneres, Brooke Shields and Britney's ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake have all offered to help get Britney back on the straight and narrow.

The 26-year-old singer's erratic behaviour has included shaving her head, attacking a paparazzo's car with an umbrella and stealing underwear from an adult store.

In January, she refused to return her two children to ex-husband Kevin Federline and was taken to a local hospital for psychiatric treatment.

Jason Statham's Meeting With Real-life Bank Robber

Jason Statham's Meeting With Real-life Bank Robber....

Jason Statham was visited on the set of The Bank Job, by one of the perpetrators of the real-life heist the movie was based on.

The Brit plays the member of a gang who robbed a central London bank in 1971.

None of the thieves were ever arrested and the stolen money was never recovered.

The British Government also banned the media from reporting on the case - prompting conspiracy theorists to speculate the authorities were hiding something.

But Statham's research into the role was made easier, thanks to a mysterious on-set visit.

The actor reveals, "We were very lucky. One of the chaps came to the set. We tried to keep his identity undercover. He didn't want to glamorise himself. A lot of people thought he was my dad coming for a set visit. Remarkably he looked a lot like me.

"He told us some great stories about the day."

Brad Pitt has confirmed to friends lover Angelina Jolie is expecting twins.

The 'Fight Club' star - who already has three adopted children, Maddox, six, Pax, four, and Zahara, three, as well as 21-month-old daughter Shiloh with the actress - has told pals they will soon be adding two more to their brood.

A friend is quoted on the Daily Mail website as saying: "Brad's been very quiet about this pregnancy so far but this was the weekend he decided to let the cat out of the bag. He's telling everybody close to him, because he is having to change his work schedule to get ready for the birth.
Comment on this Article

"They're having twins, Angelina is healthy, and he's thrilled that he's going to be a father once again.

"They didn't exactly plan this pregnancy, but they wanted more children and Brad says Angelina was very willing to have them herself."

Brad - who is cutting back on filming commitments to help look after his ever-expanding family - is also keen for Angelina to have the twins in their native US, unlike Shiloh's birth in Namibia in May 2006.

The friend added: "They want to have these children in Los Angeles or New Orleans. I don't think Brad wants to isolate himself and the family again like he did when Shiloh was born."

Mischa Barton facing 4 misdemeanors

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - Mischa Barton, who on "The O.C." played a wealthy teenager in idyllic Orange County, got a dose of reality Tuesday when she was charged with four misdemeanors related to a drinking and driving arrest last year.

The former star of "The O.C." was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, driving while having a 0.08 percent or higher blood alcohol level, driving without a valid license and possession of 28.5 grams or less of marijuana, according to court papers.

In a statement, Barton attorney Anthony V. Salerno said he was pleased his client was only charged with misdemeanors.

"The D.A.'s office is to be commended for treating this case the same as it would any other matter; Ms. Barton has received no special treatment," Salerno said.

Barton was arrested Dec. 27 in West Hollywood after sheriff's deputies saw her car straddling two lanes of traffic and failing to signal for a turn.

Barton played Marissa Cooper on "The O.C." from 2003 to 2006, when her character died in a car crash. She also has appeared in several movies, including "The Sixth Sense" and the upcoming "Virgin Territory."

In May, Barton was hospitalized for two hours after an antibiotic she was taking interacted badly with alcohol.

Barton was scheduled to be arraigned on Thursday in Beverly Hills Superior Court.

Lindsay Lohan's Razzie record

Lindsay Lohan's film won a record eight Golden Raspberry awards on Saturday (23.02.08).

The 21-year-old's movie 'I Know Who Killed Me' stacked up the embarrassing total at the ceremony - which 'honours' the movie world's biggest flops - including three for the Hollywood beauty.

The thriller tells the story of Aubrey Fleming, a woman who is abducted and tortured by a sadistic serial killer. When she finally manages to escape and regain consciousness she insists she is a stripper called Dakota Moss and the real Aubrey Fleming is still in danger.

Lindsay - who did not turn up to the ceremony - received two Worst Actress awards for playing both Aubrey and Dakota in the film, as well as winning the Worst On Screen Couple prize for a sequence where both women appear on screen together.

The film, which cost £6 million to make and only made £3.8 million in the US, also scooped the Worst Remake or Rip-off, Worst Director, Worst Screenplay and Worst Excuse for a Horror Movie award.

The film broke the previous record of seven awards - jointly held by 'Showgirls' and 'Battlefield Earth'.

One critic said about 'I Know Who Killed Me': "It was a mystery at the beginning and it was still a mystery at the end. It was as if a script had been put in a blender and this is what came out."

Janet Jackson to Marry

Janet Jackson is set to marry long-term boyfriend Jermaine Dupri.

The 'Together Again' singer - who has been dating record producer Jermaine since 2002 - is planning an intimate wedding ceremony for later this year.

A source close to the singer told the New York Post newspaper: "Janet is preparing for her private nuptials at the moment."

However, Janet recently revealed she thinks she might be "jinxed" when it comes to marriage after going through two bitter divorce battles.

She said: "After two divorces, I thought I was jinxed. Maybe marriage isn't for me? Maybe it's my fault it never works. I was always faithful. I always tried to give of myself. I was very loyal. But maybe I'm the problem. I think I'm to blame."

The 41-year-old singer - who was previously married to Rene Elizondo and James DeBarge - added: "Getting divorced was so awful, and I'm really tired of being hurt all the time."

Jessica Simpson to Marry

Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo are set to get married.

'The Dukes of Hazzard' star, who has been dating American football star Tony since her father Joe set them up last November, is reportedly planning to tie the knot for a second time.

A source close to the couple said: "Jessica has never been happier than she is when she's with Tony. She knows her first marriage didn't work out, but she has a really good feeling about this one, and wants to make her feelings for Tony clear."


However, a friend of the singer - who was previously married to singer Nick Lachey - says the story is an elaborate stunt constructed by Jessica to promote her upcoming country music album.

The pal told America's OK! magazine: "I think it's a press stunt. She always leaks information about her faux love life when she's desperate to get her face on magazine covers!"

It was recently revealed Jessica is planning a new reality TV show documenting the release of her album.

A representative for CMT, the US TV network expected to broadcast the show, said: "We have had exploratory talks with Jessica's camp, but nothing has been confirmed or signed."

Sheryl Crow's rehab wish

Sheryl Crow wants to go to rehab because she thinks it will be good for her career.

The 46-year-old singer - who has just released her sixth album 'Detours' - is desperate to duet with "hot" Amy Winehouse, who picked up five Grammy Awards last week while being treated for her drugs addiction.

Speaking at an intimate show in London, she said: "I want to collaborate with Amy because she's really hot and cool right now.

"I know one song 'Rehab' was very popular particularly because a lot of young people are in rehab as well. In fact I'm thinking about going. It looks like loads of fun and I know my career will benefit from it."

Meanwhile, Sheryl - who adopted nine-month-old son Wyatt last year - has revealed her breast cancer battle in 2006 made her want to become a mother.

The star, who split from cyclist Lance Armstrong in February 2006, explained: "I began the adoption process right after I finished my treatment. Wyatt came in May last year. I have always felt like I was meant to be a mom, but I had kept it from happening because I had believed that you are supposed to look for a family with a mom and a dad."

Jennifer Lopez's birth ban

Jennifer Lopez has told hospital staff not to enter the room where she will give birth.

The 'Do It Well' singer is set to give birth to twins, her first children with husband Marc Anthony, later this month, and has asked staff at Long Island's North Shore Medical Center not to use the room until she arrives.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "There is a room, which even has a brown leather couch, that has been sitting empty for two weeks now. No-one is even allowed in there until she gets here. It's just sitting there for her."

The hospital has reportedly prepared an entire suite for the 38-year-old star, complete with wooden flooring and a giant TV.

It was recently revealed the hospital has been put on kidnap alert.

Staff have been undertaking specialist 'Code Pink' drills to ensure they are prepared in case anyone attempts to snatch Jennifer's babies.

A friend of the 'Monster-In-Law' star said: "Jennifer has spoken so much about how excited she is about the birth that anyone who is considering a kidnapping knows how far she would be willing to go to get her babies back."

Bai Ling Arrested For Shoplifting

Chinese movie star Bai Ling has been arrested for shoplifting, after she was caught in the act at Los Angeles International Airport on Wednesday (13Feb08) afternoon.

Ling, who was reportedly "co-operative but crying", was taken to a nearby police station where she was booked for theft, according to tmz.

And hours later, the 37-year-old posted a message about her trip on her website accompanied with photos of herself outside the Southwest terminal - but failed to mention her arrest at all.

Writing on her blog, she says, "Delayed the flight, wondring (sic) again in the airport like a ghost, why can't I just be the sun smile? My heart is a little sad now, casted by the melody of life ..

The Spice Girl was tough on her bandmate during the group's 90s heyday, but claims their reunion tour has made their friendship much stronger.

She said: "If Geri gets her dancing wrong now I tell her. But in the old days I may have done it in a b***hy way, but it's much more sisterly now. I want her to look fantastic and get it right.

Daniel Craig's photo fury

Daniel Craig hates camera phones - because he can never go to the toilet in peace.

The James Bond star is happy to meet fans and sign autographs but draws the line at being photographed when he is trying to relieve himself.

Daniel said: "People try to take pictures of me when I'm having a p**s and it's not welcome and never will be.

"I have to keep hold of my sense of humour, because you can lose it very quickly and start retreating into yourself - then you can't go anywhere unless you're with armed guards."

Daniel has a history of griping about his fans.

The 'Quantum of Solace' star recently revealed he wears a false beard to the pub to stop people recognising him.

He said: "I wish, sometimes, I could just go sit and spend the afternoon in the pub. Well, you know, if I'm quiet and I wear a hat, a pair of sunglasses and a false beard, I could probably get away with it."

Britney Spears Release

Britney Spears' parents claims their daughter's life is at risk following her release from hospital yesterday (06.02.08).

Jamie and Lynne Spears are "extremely disappointed" the troubled singer was allowed to leave Los Angeles' UCLA Medical Center on the recommendation of her psychiatrist.

Jamie and Lynne - who are divorced - said in a joint statement: "As parents of an adult child in the throes of a mental health crisis, we were extremely disappointed to learn that over the recommendation of her treating psychiatrist, our daughter Britney was released from the hospital that could best care for her and keep her safe.

"We are deeply concerned about our daughter's safety and vulnerability and we believe her life is presently at risk. There are conservatorship orders in place created to protect our daughter that are being blatantly disregarded. We ask only that the court's orders be enforced so that a tragedy may be averted."

Britney, 26, left the facility yesterday surrounded by private security guards but without the police escort that accompanied her when she was admitted last Thursday (31.01.08).

Since last week, the mother-of-two has been undergoing psychiatric evaluation and it is unclear whether she will carry on with outpatient treatment.

Soon after her release, Britney was reunited with her photographer boyfriend Adnan Ghalib at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Britney Spears psychiatric test

Britney Spears is to undergo a psychiatric evaluation.

The singer faces a full test before she can retain the authority to make her own legal decisions.

Britney's father Jamie was granted temporary control over her medical, legal and financial decisions after his daughter was sectioned last week.

Yesterday (04.02.08), Britney's lawyer Adam Streisand attempted to have the decision reversed, but Los Angeles Superior Court Commissioner Reva Goetz ruled the pop star must undergo the evaluation.

Samuel Ingham, a court-appointed lawyer for Britney, testified that he spoke to the mother-of-two at the hospital for 15 minutes on Sunday (03.02.08), and admitted: "I think Ms. Spears does not understand the nature of these proceedings, and I think she lacks the capacity to hire a private lawyer."

Los Angeles County Superior Court Public Information Officer, Allan Parachini, said: "The temporary conservatorship involving Ms. Spears has been extended until a hearing on February 14. A court appointed physician was assigned to evaluate her competency. That physician's report is due at the court on February 13."

Jamie Spears retained co-conservatorship over Britney's estimated $40 million estate along with his attorney Andrew Wallet.

Techno dunce Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie is a technophobe.

The 'A Mighty Heart' actress confessed she is completely hopeless with technology and she often has to ask partner Brad Pitt for help turning on their computer.

Speaking at an event to celebrate her being presented with the Outstanding Performance of the Year Award at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival on Saturday (02.02.08), Angelina said: "As Brad knows, I don't even really know how to turn on a computer!"

Angelina also revealed she was initially hesitant about starring in 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith', but is now glad she took the role because that was where she met Brad.

She said: "Obviously I'm very glad I did it now - it completely changed my life!"

When the 32-year-old actress was shown a clip of her and Brad's famous tango scene from the 2005 film and asked who the better dancer was, she laughed: "I think we're about equal - equally bad that is!"

Angelina - who failed to dispel pregnancy rumours by wearing another loose top at the festival - admitted her main passion in life is motherhood, despite being a keen humanitarian and busy actress.

Image: justjared.com

The 'Toxic' singer, who was removed from her home and taken to Los Angeles' UCLA Medical Center by ambulance at 4am this morning (31.01.08), has been placed on a 5150 hold - a piece of US legislation which means she poses a danger to herself and others.

It is claimed the intervention was planned for days and was finally executed when Britney's condition deteriorated after she went without sleep since Saturday (26.01.08).

One source told gossip website TMZ.com: "When she was taken away she was non-responsive about the whole thing - out of it. She wasn't resistant, she was saying, 'Is something wrong?'

"She made hot chocolate and waited for paramedics to place her on a gurney."

The 26-year-old star was reportedly committed after her psychiatrist contacted the North Hollywood division of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) and warned them "something must be done".

The psychiatrist, who visited Britney last night (30.01.08), was said to be concerned by the star's erratic driving in her new Mercedes and "downhill behaviour" and recommended hospitalisation.

She said: "I've been feeling a lot more emotions. Anything could make me incredibly angry or break down crying. That's not something I'm used to."

Jessica - who is famous for her toned figure - is determined to keep her baby weight to a minimum.

She told US TV show 'Extra': "I try to eat as healthily as possible and exercise. As long as I don't gain too much weight too fast - I think that's the key."

Hayden Christensen's Alba sex fear

Hayden Christensen says filming sex scenes with Jessica Alba was "terrifying".

The actor, who stars alongside Jessica in new film 'Awake', says shooting the intimate scenes with the stunning actress was scarier than starring in 'Star Wars'.

He said: "I was just so nervous. Really nervous! Running around with a lightsaber is really pretend, but when you are put in a situation where the scene you are doing becomes so real, it is terrifying.

Hayden was right to be worried as Jessica recently revealed she loves having sex.

The actress, who is pregnant with her and fiancé Cash Warren's first baby, said: "I don't think a girl's a sl*t if she enjoys sex. I could have had a one-night stand. I feel like a lot of women try to make it into more, so they don't feel so bad about just wanting to have sex. I don't really have a problem with just wanting sex. Never have."

Jessica stars as Hayden's wife in 'Awake', which tells the story of a man who is conscious but paralysed during surgery.

Denise Richards Court Battle with Charlie

Image: People.com

Denise Richards will fight Charlie Sheen in court after he refused to let their daughters appear in her reality TV show.

The 'Wild Things' actress reportedly wants authorities to revoke her ex-husband's right to prevent Sam, three, and two-year-old Lola from joining her in the fly-on-the-wall show, after he branded her "greedy, vain and exploitative".

A source said: "The whole idea of this show starring Denise and the kids goes totally against everything Charlie believes in. He feels it is exploitative of the children for their mother's own vanity and greed."

The warring exes, who divorced in 2006 following a four-year marriage, will fight the issue out in court later this week, it is claimed.

Sheen and Richards are already involved in a bitter custody dispute over Sam and Lola.

Richards is requesting a custody evaluation, no overnight visits for Sheen, and the authority to make decisions regarding the care of the children.

Court documents previously revealed Richards has accused Sheen of "inappropriately" touching their daughters - claims he vehemently denies.

Britney Spears Dumps Photographer

Britney Spears has dumped her photographer lover and filed a restraining order against him.

The troubled star ended her relationship with Adnan Ghalib - who she is believed to have started dating last December - after discovering he was cashing in on his romance with her by tipping off his agency FinalPixx with photo opportunities.

Britney got her revenge on Adnan by inviting two photographers from a rival agency into her Los Angeles home at 2am on Sunday (20.01.08), saying: "Come with me, let's have fun."

As the group arrived at the property the singer's manager Sam Lufti brandished a paper he claimed was a restraining order banning Adnan, 35, from making money from photographs of the star.

Britney spent four hours with the two paparazzi drinking champagne and dancing to music including singer Amy Winehouse's album 'Back to Black' and one of her own LPs.

One photographer named Roberto said: "We had fun. Britney was funny, very relaxed, dancing a little bit and she carried her little dog all the time. Sam was telling us to not worry about Adnan because they have filed a restraining order against him."

Adnan - who was pictured buying pregnancy tests with Britney last week - insist is unaware of any restraining order because he has been at a family funeral.

Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds Split

Pic concreteloop.com

Funnyman Eddie Murphy and his bride have SPLIT - days after it was revealed their Pacific isle wedding three weeks ago was not legal anyway.

The Shrek star and stunning film producer Tracey Edmonds, 40, last night confessed their whirlwind “marriage” had hit the buffers following their return to Los Angeles.

The break-up comes after the couple tied the knot in a romantic New Year’s Day beach ceremony on a private island off Bora Bora in the South Pacific.

It later emerged they should have lived there a month to make the marriage legal under Polynesian law.

Last night a “proper” ceremony they had been planning in Tinseltown was called off - leaving multi-millionaire Murphy, 46, in paradise over his lucky escape.

Lawyers for the star - father of SPICE GIRL MEL B’s baby daughter ANGEL IRIS - were double-checking with officials on the island that he was still single.

Only couples who wed in the town hall in front of the mayor are exempt from the 30-day residency rule.

Murphy, who split from his first wife in 2006 after 13 years, refused to comment.

Britney's Cry for Help

TROUBLED BRITNEY SPEARS wrote a suicide note saying: Perhaps it would be better if I was dead, The Sun can reveal.

The heart-rending letter laid bare the 26-year-old singer’s dark feelings of loneliness - and despair at being unable to live up to family and fans’ expectations.

A friend found it just before Britney’s meltdown earlier this month.

Doctors and friends of the tormented star believe she needs urgent help - because she is suffering fits of terror and is mentally ill.

The chart-topping singer has had mental health problems for years, sources close to her family revealed.

Her conditions, which include manic depression and possible multiple personality disorder, seem to be worsening.

And American TV doctor PHIL MCGRAW, who has seen her recently, said she is in dire need of both medical and psychological intervention.

He added: I am very concerned for her.

The medics and family sources spoke out as it was revealed 26-year-old Britney penned a suicide note telling of her loneliness and fear of not living up to the expectations of fans and relatives.

Pals say the Toxic star is like a child, constantly needing care, approval and support from them.

And she is terrified of losing her children SEAN PRESTON, two, and JAYDEN JAMES, one, in her custody battle with her estranged husband KEVIN FEDERLINE.

It is understood the case’s judge believes her erratic behaviour is being caused by psychological problems rather than an addiction to prescription drugs.

And she stands little chance of winning unless she accepts treatment for mental illness.

Another bizarre incident came to light yesterday when it was revealed Britney shocked assistants in a Los Angeles clothes shop by emerging from a changing room NAKED.

Noises----

She spent 45 minutes in the room with her British lover, paparazzo ADNAN GHALIB.

An assistant said they made weird noises like they were having sex. And Britney swore at staff when she left.

One employee said: She was slurring and spitting. Her face was covered with cold sores and acne, and her scalp was patchy.

Britney’s suicide note was found in her bathroom just before her meltdown earlier this month, in which she was rushed to a psychiatric ward after refusing to hand her sons to Federline’s security guards.

It was discovered by a friend who thought it a cry for help.

A source close to the singer said: The letter was very sad. Britney talked about her loneliness, how unfair life is and not being able to trust people.

She wrote about how she will never be what people want her to be. She said, ‘Perhaps it would be better if I was dead’.

The source said the friend, who has been trying to persuade Britney to seek medical help, confronted her with the note. But she laughed it off and said: Everybody thinks about death.

Britney missed a vital court hearing over her kids on Monday. The source said: People think she doesn’t care but she loves them more than anything.

The truth is she’s terrified of losing them and can’t face going to court. She doesn’t want to answer questions about her mental health and lifestyle.

Britney’s manic depression is also known as bipolar disorder. The source said: She also has something much more serious she doesn’t want to talk about.

She may have multiple personality disorder. And she had post-natal depression after both births.

The source added: Sometimes she misses drugs she takes for her problems. Sometimes she takes too many. Combined with her drinking, it makes her difficult to control.

Craig: Sexy Olga is amazing

Daniel Craig is delighted with his gorgeous new Bond girls.

And the Cheshire-born star admitted that, despite praise for Casino Royale, playing James Bond still makes him nervous.

He revealed: “I’m no less nervous than I was.

“I don’t know if I’ll ever feel comfortable with it. You can’t say there’s less pressure when you make a $200 million Ddollar movie. The pressure is plain to see.

“We’ve got to make it as good as if not better than the last one and that’s all that matters.”

But Daniel refused to be drawn on the name of the new movie, currently dubbed Bond 22.

When asked if it would be the rumoured title The Lady Expects Too Much, he laughed and joked: “That’s quite good. I’ll write that one down!”

Jerry O'Connell, Rebecca Romijn ready for parenthood

Jerry O'Connell and wife Rebecca Romijn will soon be joining the ranks of expectant parents -- if their plans come to fruition.

"Rebecca and I are both looking forward to the next logical step," reveals the star of ABC's "Carpoolers" sitcom, who married the "Ugly Betty" actress last July. "We're married, and we both want children soon. That's our plan, and we can't wait."

The writers' strike that's crippling Hollywood could help them realize their plans, he says. Both have been idle from their series shooting for months now. And that, says O'Connell, "is giving us some very cherished time together. When we're working, we see each other very little. But with the strike … Well, I'm spending a lot of time gardening, she's become a chronic antique eBayer and does work with cross-stitching. But mostly we spend time together."

O'Connell's series has started an eight-week airing of segments that were shot prior to the beginning of the strike, but like the rest of the industry, he has no idea when he'll be able to return to the cameras.

Pamela Anderson and Rick Salomon Over?

Pamela Anderson has described her split from Rick Salomon as "a big fat juicy can of worms".

The former 'Baywatch' star - who filed for divorce on December 14 after just three months of marriage - has spoken about their break-up for the first time.

Pammie said: "I wish him the best. It's a can of worms. Big, fat juicy worms, but worms."

She also shot down rumours she is pregnant with Rick's baby, telling US TV network E!: "No more kids. No more kids."

In December, the 40-year-old actress had claimed she and Rick were trying to work things out, but it was recently revealed her lawyer had filed a proof of service summons in Los Angeles Superior Court on December 28.

Pammie - who has two sons, Brandon, 11, and nine-year-old Dylan with first husband Tommy Lee - fell for friend Rick after he offered to waive her poker debts to him in return for sex.

They married in a quickie ceremony in Las Vegas, in the one-hour break between Pammie's performances as Hans Klok's assistant in his magic show.

Rick famously starred in and released the Paris Hilton sex tape 'One Night in Paris'.

He was previously married to actresses Shannen Doherty and Elizabeth Daily, while Pammie has been wed twice before to rockers Kid Rock and Tommy. She filed for divorce from Rock after just four months of marriage.

Lockin lips with Brad and Angelina

Photo - WireImage

Last night, I watched Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie make out.

Not in my dreams, mind you. I was at the live VH1 telecast of the Critics' Choice Awards from the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium.

The Dolce & Gabbana-garbed Jolie and her scruffy-sexy man were two of the last celebs to arrive, so they had to wait in the back for a commercial break to take their seats.
Comment on this Article

So, what did they do while they waited? The lovebirds whispered, laughed and then, like a couple of teenagers, they began kissing. And I'm not talking about a sweet peck or two between parents. It was a full-on make-out session!

As one of my coworkers said, "I want to make out with them!"

Another thing you didn't see? Whenever the cameras stopped rolling for a commercial break, the pair's table was immediately swarmed with boldfaced names and Industry executives.

Queen Latifah was one of the first to stop by to say hello. I also caught Hairspray director Adam Shankman chatting them up, as did Julian Schnabel, director of The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.

Britney Spears Dumps Car

Britney Spears abandoned her car on Sunset Boulevard during rush hour last night (07.01.08).

The troubled pop star, who got a flat tyre while she was driving along the busy Los Angeles street, continued to drive for two miles without her lights on and even passed a petrol station before she pulled over and deserted the vehicle.

Los Angeles Police Department spokesman Mike Lopez said: "Britney Spears' car was impounded because it was blocking the roadway."

Britney now faces a $104 towing fee, plus $32 for every day it remains in the towing yard.

If the 'Toxic' star doesn't collect the vehicle within 30 days, it will be put up for auction.

The incident has sparked further fears for the singer's mental health.

The 'Gimme More' singer was taken to Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Medical Center following a three-hour stand-off with police which began at 8pm on Thursday (03.01.08) after she refused to return her sons, two-year-old Sean Preston and one-year-old Jayden James, to ex-husband Kevin Federline.

Britney Spear's Pill Binge

Britney Spears reportedly took over 100 pills during a massive 36-hour drugs binge last week, before being hospitalised.

The troubled singer is said to have washed down the huge amount of drugs with a 'Purple Monster' cocktail - a mixture of vodka, anti-flu syrup and an energy drink, before being taken to Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on Thursday night (03.01.08), according to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper.

Her hospital dash came after she refused to give her sons, two-year-old Sean Preston and one-year-old Jayden James, back to ex-husband Kevin Federline after a custodial visit.

A source close to the singer said: "She ended up taking 20 Clenbuterol diet pills, 18 herbal speed tablets, 18 Piriton anti-histamine tablets, 12 Vicodin painkillers, 10 sleeping pills and eight antacid reflux tablets.

"She also drank one bottle of Pepto-Bismol, two bottles of NyQuil and two bottles of OxyContin painkiller, and took a further 10 anti-hangover drugs and six Ritalin tablets which are usually used to treat Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)."

Meanwhile, Britney's estranged father Jamie reportedly "broke down in tears" when he visited his 25-year-old daughter in hospital.

A source told People magazine: "Jamie was incredibly upset. He broke down in tears. When he realised the situation, it just literally broke him down.

Victoria Beckham's Concert Ban

Victoria Beckham has reportedly banned a host of her celebrity enemies from attending the Spice Girls' reunion concerts.

The 33-year-old singer - who is currently in the middle of the band's 17-date residency at London's O2 arena which is part of their world tour - has compiled a list of stars who are not welcome at the venue as they have upset her in the past.

The list includes British glamour model Jordan and her husband Peter Andre, Lily Allen, Sophie Ellis Bextor, TV star Denise Van Outen and camp comedian Graham Norton.

A source said: "Victoria has taken some stick over the years from certain celebrities. She doesn't want to be doing her stuff on stage, and then see famous faces in the audience taking the p**s.

"So, quite understandably, Victoria has banned a number of well-known names from the show."

Jordan and Peter publicly slated Victoria and her soccer star husband David on national TV, while Sophie - who beat Victoria in a chart battle in 2000 - slammed the Spice Girls' latest video 'Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)'.

Lily criticised Victoria's figure, saying she was too thin to be a good role model, while Graham and Denise have also ridiculed her appearance.

Lachey & Minnillo Are Heroes To Old Neighbour

Pop star Nick Lachey and his girlfriend have turned a problem neighbour into a new best friend after saving his life.

The singer and Vanessa Minnillo jumped into action when an elderly man living in their New York apartment block collapsed as he stepped out of an elevator.

Minnillo called the emergency services while her boyfriend grabbed the old guy's keys and dashed to get his angina medicine.

The couple then stayed with the man until paramedics arrived and took him to hospital, according to the National Enquirer.

Ironically, the man was among those who opposed Lachey and Minnillo's move into the condo, citing worries about the paparazzi who follow the couple everywhere.

Fergie engaged

Fergie has got engaged to her actor boyfriend Josh Duhamel.

The couple, who have been dating for three years, announced their happy news yesterday (26.12.07) but refused to reveal if 'Las Vegas' star Josh popped the question on Christmas Day.

A representative for the actor has confirmed the pair got engaged "recently", but as yet no other details are available.

Since getting betrothed, Fergie, 32, has been calling all her friends and family to tell them about the engagement.

A source said: "She has called a lot of her girlfriends to tell them about the engagement. Fergie said she and Josh don't know what kind of wedding they want yet, but insists she is the happiest girl on earth."

Earlier this month, Fergie claimed she was in no rush to get engaged because she already felt married to Josh.

The Black Eyed Peas singer, who has been dating the 35-year-old actor since 2004, said: "We're practically married. I'm madly in love with him. He understands how to treat a woman and gives me respect."

Angelina Jolie's Beauty Secrets

Angelina Jolie has started rubbing caviar into her skin to stay looking young.

The 32-year-old actress, who is dating Brad Pitt, is said to be worried the veins in her arms, hands and forehead have become more visible because of the amount of weight she has lost in recent months.

To combat the problem, Angelina has started having a special £200-a-time beauty treatment which uses a cream made from the eggs of the Baerii sturgeon - which is reared on farms in the South of France to produce the culinary delicacy of fish eggs.

The treatment, which can last up to three hours, involves the actress being wrapped up in tight bandages so her body sweats out toxins before she is slathered in the youth-restoring body cream - which claims to fight "slackened skin and loss of firmness".

The high oil and protein content of the sturgeon eggs is believed to be very good for the skin.

As well as the full body treatments, Angelina is also having lengthy facials using caviar-based moisturisers made by cosmetic company La Prairie.

The 'Beowulf' star is not the only celebrity who has discovered the skin benefits of caviar.

Nicole Richie's Festive Party

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden treated 200 children to a Christmas party on Saturday (22.12.07).

The couple organised the party at Los Angeles' Paramount Studios for children from Beyond Shelter - a charity programme which helps families beat homelessness and poverty - as part of their Richie-Madden Children's Foundation , which they set-up when they learned they were to become parents.

Joel told People magazine: "It's fun for us to be with a bunch of kids who are having a good time. They make you smile. Hopefully for today they're feeling special.

"The foundation is really important to me and Nicole. We're just really happy to be a part of the community and celebrating with these kids who haven't been as fortunate as us."

The Good Charlotte frontman and his heavily pregnant fiancée - who is due to give birth in January - handed out new pairs of shoes and teddy bears to the kids.

Nicole joined in as the children enjoyed face-painting, balloon animals and hot dogs, and was cheered by the children as she shouted, "Who wants to throw pies in Joel's face?"

The couple - who last month hosted a surprise baby shower for 100 new mothers and pregnant women at Hollywood's Los Angeles Free Clinic - insist they are having a quiet family Christmas this year.

Pamela Anderson files for divorce

Wow I don't think any of us is surprised.. Will she ever learn from her previous mistakes..

LOS ANGELES - It seems like only two months ago that Pamela Anderson was aglow with happiness over her quickie Las Vegas wedding to Rick Salomon.

Actually, it was.

But the 40-year-old ex-"Baywatch" beauty has filed for divorce from her 38-year-old husband after just two months of marriage.

Anderson cited irreconcilable differences in papers filed Friday in Los Angeles County Superior Court. The documents were first obtained by the celebrity Web site CelebTV.com.

Anderson and Salomon wed Oct. 6 during a break between the 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. shows of "Hans Klok's The Beauty of Magic" at Planet Hollywood resort, where Anderson was starring as a magician's assistant. The couple separated less than 10 weeks later, on Dec. 13.

Salomon is best known for making a sex videotape with Paris Hilton, his girlfriend at the time, and was previously married to actress Shannen Doherty. Anderson was previously married to singer Kid Rock and Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee.

Despite the end of Jen and Brad's marriage - which was swiftly followed by his new relationship with Angelina Jolie - teacher Jane has remained close to Aniston, and has now invited her round for Christmas.

Although it's not confirmed whether the former Friends actress has accepted the invitation, it's likely Brad and Angelina won't be joining them for some Yuletide warmth!

Becks 3hrs in Lapdancing Club

Image: Splash News

Victoria and David Beckham Spiced things up in Las Vegas with a trip to one of the world’s raunchiest lapdancing clubs.

The couple enjoyed three hours in a private room at Spearmint Rhino on Monday.

In the area — where Posh and Becks were celebrating the birthday of a SPICE GIRLS make-up artist — topless women offer dances for £200-an-hour.

I caught up with the pair as they nursed hangovers — and they told me they are having the time of their lives on the Spice tour.

At the exclusive Vegas venue — a fave of naughty Hollywood stars — guests are lavished with champagne and strawberries while they watch X-rated dances.

I’m assured the pair didn’t have any private shows — but they most certainly got an eyeful. When I bumped into Victoria in her hotel, she admitted the girls’ tour is turning her into SLOSHED SPICE.

They have been boozing all night and sleeping in all day. And even (pint of) Becks has discovered hitting the bar can be fun. Posh told me: “We are having the time of our lives.

“It hasn’t been like this for years — since before our first son Brooklyn was born.

“We’ve had two nights out on the trot which have been really messy and we are loving it.

“We have been lying in every day watching films as we haven’t got the kids.

“We are behaving like rock stars — late-night drinking on tour.”

The pair were also chuffed with the Spice Girls’ reception in the Beckhams’ new hometown of Los Angeles last week.

Olsens blasted by PETA

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have been labelled "The Trollsen Twins" by PETA.

The 21-year-old stars have angered the animal rights group by continuing to wear fur and including it in their clothes lines.

PETA fumed: "Mary-Kate and Ashley have ignored pleas to stop wearing fur and are still using it in their fashion collection."

The group has now launched a campaign against "fur fiends" like Mary-Kate, who they have dubbed "Hairy Kate" and Ashley who they refer to as "Trashley".

PETA have designed a poster featuring the superstar sisters along with the tagline, "Fur Is Worn by Beautiful Animals and Ugly People".

The "Trollsen Twins" poster will be unveiled today (11.12.07) next to their Hollywood Walk of Fame star in Los Angeles.

Mary-Kate and Ashley - who in 2005 were estimated to have a combined net worth of $300 million - have a lucrative brand including their own fashion and accessories range, their own film franchise and successful acting and modelling careers.

Madonna Facelift Rumours

Source

Madonna has sparked facelift rumours after she was spotted leaving a medical centre with two black eyes.

The 49-year-old singer masked her eyes with oversized black sunglasses as she left the New York building but the dark purple bruising was still visible.

Cosmetic operations on the eyes or nose can leave the patient with bruises.

Although Madonna has always denied going under the knife, insisting her youthful looks are natural, it is not the first time she has been dogged by surgery rumours.

In September, she was photographed with a new scar and swelling around her ear.

Celebrity plastic surgeon Alex Karidis said at the time: "I believe she has undergone a form of facelift."

In 2004, Madonna - who is 10 years older than husband Guy Ritchie - was at the centre of another surgery riddle.

Victoria Beckham's Naked Slumber

Victoria Beckham sleeps naked because she loves the feel of husband David's skin.

The Spice Girl shuns nightwear so she can feel the soccer star's athletic physique next to her body.

Victoria - who has three sons, eight-year-old Brooklyn, five-year-old Romeo and two-year-old Cruz, with David - said: "I sleep naked. I'm going to be naked if I'm getting in bed with him every night!"

Victoria - who has her own clothing line, DVB, and a his and hers fragrance line with David - also slammed her celebrity rivals, including Paris Hilton, who she claims have no input into their respective empires.

She added: "There are so many, and I hate the word celebrities, clothing lines and fragrances, and most of them have nothing to do with it."

The 33-year-old style icon, who is currently on the Spice Girls reunion world tour, joked her love of fashion comes from her inner "gayness".

She joked to America's Elle magazine: "I'm so camp! I'm such a gay man trying to get out. I don't give a f**k what anybody thinks!"

Jennifer Lopez' Belly-Bump Bonanza

Jennifer Lopez didn’t perform at last night’s Movies Rock show, but she didn’t have to. She wowed the crowd at the Kodak Theater by simply walking onstage.

Dressed in a white cloud of a dress, the audience went crazy when she appeared in all her pregnant glory. Seeing an expectant J.Lo is surreal. Maybe it’s because I started my career in the gossip world when she was just starting to date Sean "Puffy" Combs in the late '90s.

Lopez originally planned to perform, but as I first reported last week she decided only to present, and she spent most of the two-hour show sitting in a seat not far from the stage.


Despite plenty of standing ovations throughout the night for people like Jennifer Hudson and Fergie, Ms. Lopez stood only for legendary conductor and composer John Williams. She was helped up by a friend sitting next to her, as hubby Marc Anthony had already bolted backstage to get ready for his cover of Simon & Garfunkel’s Graduate song ".Mrs. Robinson.".
