'Shrek' star Mike Myers has become a father for the first time

The 'Shrek' star and his wife Kelly Tisdale
The 'Shrek' star and his wife Kelly Tisdale welcomed a baby boy into the world earlier this month and have decided to call the tot Spike.

A source told Life & Style magazine: "The baby is named Spike and was born two weeks ago!"

Mike, 48, started dating the New York cafe owner in 2006, shortly after splitting from his first wife, comedy writer-and-actress Robin Ruzan, after 12 years of marriage.

The 'Austin Powers' funnyman wed Kelly in a secret ceremony last year and didn't confirm the news until five months after the nuptials had taken place.

They were first revealed to be an item when they were spotted holidaying in Hawaii together.

Kelly - who previously dated dance star Moby - confirmed their romance, saying: "We're actually surprised you didn't find out about us sooner."

While he is happy now, the Canadian actor once admitted that he is "insecure" like his animated character Shrek.

When asked if he and the green ogre have anything in common, he said: "Insecurity. I'm secure enough to admit I'm quite insecure.

"Growing up in Canada you feel like you walk amongst Americans, but you are slightly different. I think ogres feel slightly alienated."

John Travolta’s 1860 doppelganger - Scientologists believe in reincarnation

A photograph John Travolta's doppelganger from 1860
Has John Travolta already lived out a past life? One man in Ontario seems to believe so, and is selling a photograph of Travolta’s apparent doppelganger on eBay.

The Daily Mail Online reports that the photo, taken in 1860, shows a man with an eerie resemblance to Travolta and has a whopping price tag of $50,000.

John Travolta, as a practicing Scientologist, believes in the idea of reincarnation. In fact, some members of the religion are expected to sign a one billion years contract to service of the Scientology religion. Is the lookalike photograph proof of Travolta’s possible reincarnation?

“I've had this interesting photograph for years and I've been unable to part with it,” said the seller on the online auction site of the “unaltered” photo. “It hasn't been changed, tampered with or altered in anyway. It is clear and is as nice as the day it was taken roughly 151 years ago.”

This Travolta look-a-like incident follows a similar one with Nicholas Cage, whose doppelganger was apparently photographed during the American Civil War. Cage’s look-a-like photo fueled both theories and jokes that Cage is in fact a “vampire.”

Hugh Jackman thinks Evangeline Lilly is a 'very good kisser'

Evangeline Lilly and Hugh Jackman
The actor – who has kids Oscar, 11, and six-year-old Ava with wife Deborra-Lee Furness – enjoyed locking lips with the actress on latest movie 'Real Steel', but his son wasn't so impressed when he went to a screening of the film and saw the scene.

Asked if the children enjoyed the movie, he said: "They loved it, this is the first one of my movies they’ve seen. I don’t want them to see their Dad take someone’s head off with claws, it kind of undermines me at home... they loved it.

"There was this one moment, Deb is on one side and Oscar is on the other... and I have one kissing scene with Evangeline Lilly from Lost... very good kisser.... so Deb is used to that... we all of a sudden looked at my son, he’s never seen his dad kissing someone else, he didn’t look at us he looked straight at the screen and said ‘You’re going to be in trouble’."

The 42-year-old actor also confessed to feeling "nervous" about starring in 'X-Men' spin-off 'The Wolverine' next year because of the work it takes to bulk up for the part, but has been taking dietary advice from Dwayne 'The Rock' to help him achieve his goal.

He added in an interview with 2Day FM's 'Kyle and Jackie O Show': "I do the Dwayne Johnson diet, I rang him and he said 6,000 calories a day, you start at 6.30 in the morning eating chicken and broccoli, and you eat every two hours.

"I’m a skinny guy, I had to put so much weight on, it was so hard for me to get into Wolverine shape, Will Smith famously said it’s so much easier to stay in shape than get in shape. I’m nervous because I have another 'Wolverine' movie coming up next year..."

George Clooney feels like an 'old grey haired guy' he doesn't recognize

George Clooney
The 50-year-old star first realised he was getting older when he watched his 2009 film 'Up in the Air' back, and was confronted with his aging self.

He told Total Film magazine: "It's interesting to watch yourself grow older on screen. I watched 'Up in the Air' and thought, 'who's that old, grey haired guy?' It was me. I never wear make-up for movies. It's starting to show."

George added the film was one of his best times on set and the end results were some of the best of his career, but marked out an incident while filming 1999 movie 'Three Kings', directed by David O. Russell, as "the worst" experience he has ever had.

He explained: "Once he went after a camera car driver who I went to high school with. I had nothing to do with his getting his job, but David began yelling and screaming at him and embarrassing him in front of everyone on set.

"I told him, 'You can yell and scream and even fire him, but what you can't do is humiliate him in front of all these people. Not on my set, if I have any say about it.

"Another time he screamed so much at a script supervisor that he made her cry. It was truly, without exception, the worst experience of my life."

Olivia Wilde wants Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck to 'keep breeding'

Olivia Wilde
The '13 Going 30' actress is currently expecting her third child with husband Ben Affleck and her 'Butter' co-star Olivia doesn't think she should stop there.

She said: "She should keep breeding! She makes pretty babies."

However, Jennifer - who already has daughters, Violet, five, and two-year-old Seraphina, with Ben - recently revealed three children is enough and would like another girl.

The 39-year-old beauty - who grew up as one of three girls - said: "Three girls is a great way to grow up. I'm one of three girls and my little sister is awesome.

"It would be so weird to have a boy but it would be cool and different."

Very much in love - Rory McIlroy and Caroline Wozniacki’s new nickname ‘'Wozzilroy'

Wozzilroy

Rory McIlroy is a bona fide celebrity now. He and girlfriend Caroline Wozniacki have joined the ranks of Brangelina and Tomkat with their own couples’ nickname - “wozzilroy.”

The 22 year old golfer, who recently won the US Open, coined the nickname himself when he presented girlfriend Wozniacki a golf club that was inscribed with the combination of their two surnames. The nickname was created by the couple themselves instead of short-breathed fans, though it is nonetheless endearing.

The playful exchange was documented on Twitter when Wozniacki tweeted a picture of the club with the message “Here is my new club @McilroyRory made for me'.” The two went on to create a hashtag for the new nickname and tweeted back and forth to each other:

Does the new nickname mean there are wedding bells in the near future for Wozzilroy? Doubtful as the two have only been dating for a few months following McIlroy’s split with childhood sweetheart Holly Sweeney. McIlroy has been quoted as saying that Wozniacki has “got a great work ethic and it's something I can probably learn a lot from” of his equally athletic beau.

Rihanna bombs in Belfast show as crowd kept waiting hours


Rihanna kept fans waiting for hours in her first Belfast concert last night leading to sustained booing and jeering.

A sell-out crowd of 7,000 were present at the Odyssey Theater for her appearance but they were left waiting until late in the night before she decided to appear.

There was no warm up act and Scottish DJ Calvin Harries was forced to stay on stage for hours repeatedly trying to cope with an increasingly angry crowd.

Just before 10.00pm boos began to ring out as there was no sign of the Barbados-born superstar.

After another lengthy period with Rihanna a no-show the boos and jeers became much longer and uglier.

Finally Rihanna appeared in the middle of what the Belfast Telegraph reviewer called " a "giant hamster's wheel"..... surrounded by dancers dressed like Teletubbies."

Th reviewer Jonathan McCambridge stated

"The music itself was mostly forgettable, Umbrella being a noticeable exception."

He called the wait "unforgivable."

Rihanna courted controversy earlier this week in Northern Ireland when she posed nearly nude for a music video in a wheat field. Alan Graham,the farmer who owned the land, objected

Are Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher really calling it quits?

Ashton Kutcher & Demi Moore
Rumors are flying that one of Hollywood’s top couples may be heading separate ways after Ashton Kutcher was seen partying in San Diego on his and wife Demi Moore’s sixth wedding anniversary.

FOX411’s Pop Tarts column reports that Kutcher was seen checking into the Hard Rock Hotel with former “That 70’s Show” co-star Danny Masterson on September 26 in San Diego. Allegedly, Kutcher had an affair with 23 year old Sara Leal, who has since met with lawyers to discuss options for a tell-all.

According to TheDirty.com, which first broke the story, Kutcher assured Leal that he and his wife were “separated, but the public just didn’t know yet.”

This isn’t the first time Kutcher has been tied to infidelity. In 2010, he was accused of having an affair with 21 year old Brittney Jones. “She claimed the A-list couple had an “open marriage,” “have threesomes often," and even auctioned off a sweater on eBay she claimed was Kutcher's,” reports FOX News.

The Twitter savy duo has tweeted some cryptic clues to the status of their relationship. Demi Moore’s recent tweets (@mrskutcher) include a picture of her alone with the caption “I see right through you,” as well as an anniversary-eve tweet of Greek philosopher Epictetus: “When we are offended at any man’s fault, turn to yourself and study your own failings. Then you will forget your anger.”

Kutcher (@aplusk) also tweeted his own not-so-cryptic message in response to the rumors - a link to Public Enemy’s song “Don’t Believe the Hype.”

Moore showed up solo to a two separate events during the week, where her “super-skinny” physique raised some eyebrows. The two were last seen together on September 18th leaving a movie theater together where Moore was “not looking too pleased.” Neither have offered any official comment as of yet.

Rihanna finds love in Northern Ireland with boxer / model Dudley O’Shaughnessy

Dudley O’Shaughnessy
Is art imitating life for this pop star and Dudley O’Shaughnessy?

Reports are emerging that Rihanna has found love of her own with amateur Brit boxer Dudley O’Shaughnessy while in Belfast.

It’s been exciting few days for Rihanna this week so far in Northern Ireland. First, she was given the boot off some farmland in Bangor, Co. Down during her filming for her upcoming video for ‘We Found Love.’

Then, she attracted crowds as well as police escorts in the New Lodge area of Belfast during a second day of filming.

Now Rihanna hand-picked boxer-turned-model O’Shaughnessy to play the lead opposite her in her video for ‘We Found Love.’ Evidently, Rihanna is putting a literal spin on her new tune.

O’Shaughnessy, an amateur boxer, is 21 years old, two years Rihanna’s junior. He was scouted in his hometown London while riding the tube, and was reportedly “delighted” to give modelling a try. Seems that Rihanna is equally delighted.

"Rihanna was making no secret that she fancied the pants off Dudley. They hit it off straight away," a source told the Sun. "She had seen his modelling shots and other pictures when he was a boxer."

“Rihanna took every opportunity to get close to him and at one point she was sitting in his lap during a break from filming,” the source tells The Sun.

Rihanna’s continuing her tour of Ireland this week with three sold-out shows in Belfast’s Odyssey Arena, and another night on Monday at Dublin’s O2 stadium.

Noel Gallagher blasts Lady Gaga – claims her career is based on 'meat suits' and 'controversy'

Lady Gaga
The 'AKA… What A Life' singer thinks the 'Bad Romance' star is good at getting attention, but he doesn’t think her music will stand the test of time.

He said: "I don't give a f***ing monkey's about Lady Gaga. It's all about the meat suit and the controversy. Is it about music? Really? She's got the publicity side sorted, but where's the f***ing music.

"Her album gets played a lot around my house by my daughter and it's Madonna-lite. Madonna was hardcore. She took it to the edge musically as well as everything else.

---------------------
"Twenty years from now, will we listen to Lady Gaga? No. She might think she is making a stand for the freaks and the weirdos. But they're not going to have any decent f***ing music to play are they?"

The former Oasis star – who has an 11-year-old daughter Anais with his ex-wife Meg Matthews and two sons, three-year-old Donovan and 10-month-old Sonny, with his current spouse Sara MacDonald - is disappointed that most current rock bands have nothing interesting to say and laments the lack of a "focal point" for rock 'n' roll.

He added in an interview with Q magazine: "Who will retell the rock 'n' roll story for a new generation? The problem with bands these days is half of them get the music right but you read an interview and think, 'I can't buy into them as people.'

"It's become this prevailing thing where, 'It's all about the music.' It's not. It's more than that. The way you look or what you say or what you stand for is crucial. People are so wary of being the spokesman for a generation. It's a bulls**t tag, but still … I wish someone would provide a focal point."

Colin Farrell charms the public as he sneaks in to see Brad Pitt’s ‘Moneyball’

Colin Farrell by Michael Buckner/Getty Images
Irish hunk Colin Farrell gave the folks working at a multiplex movie theater outside Toronto a big thrill when he showed up with his sister Claudine on Saturday night for a showing of Brad Pitt’s Moneyball.

Farrell walked into the place wearing a large hat to hide his face, but his expensive looking boots and Irish accent gave his identity away when he went to the popcorn counter at the theater in Mitchell, Ontario. Rather than harassing the star, though, the star-struck girls behind the counter called their boss to let him know that a VIP was in the house.

“He was just very charming and very nice,” Jeff Logan, owner of the Logan Luxury 5 Cinema, told the Mitchell Republic. “It was great fun, and exciting for the staff.”

The counter person waiting on Farrell “didn’t want to appear unprofessional,” she said, and Logan himself waited until the movie was over to see if his staff was right in pegging Farrell as the mystery guest.

Farrell owned up and then chatted with the staff. He also posed for pictures.
“He was really, really sweet,” said Mauli Delaney, who waited on him at the counter. “He was very sweet, very kind.”

Farrell gave a special shout-out to the theater’s popcorn (he also ordered Peanut M&Ms and a soda). Logan brought the popcorn chef for the night out to meet Farrell.
“Well, I like your work, man,” Farrell said to him.

“Well, I like yours, too,” replied Adam Schorzmann.

“He was actually pretty modest. Kinda quiet and real nice. He posed for a few pictures for us,” Schorzmann said.

Farrell was in Toronto to film the remake of the Arnold Schwarzenegger film Total Recall, which is due out next year. No word on what he thought of Pitt’s performance in Moneyball.

First an Irish farmer tries shuts her down now Rihanna’s caged in Irish fans - VIDEO

Rihanna’s causing quite the stir in Belfast the past few days while filming for her new video “We Found Love.” On Monday, she was given the boot off some farmland in Bangor, Co. Down after filming for her video scantily clad. And on Tuesday, she was in need of a police escort for her next phase of shooting.

Word of Rihanna filming in Belfast must have spread like wildfire since crowds grew around the film site on Tuesday. While shooting in an apartment complex in the New Lodge area of Belfast, police were on hand to keep the growing crowds at bay. Rihanna hid out in an apartment for twenty minutes as the crowds thickened; apparently she claimed that the shoot was poorly organized.

However, Rihanna appeared split as to whether she welcomed the crowds or not. "She was fuming. She stormed over to photographers at the edge of the crowd and told everyone to push back or she would leave,” said one onlooker to the Independent. Later though, she was seen giving a kiss to a fan in a wheelchair and proclaiming “I love you Belfast. Thank you” via megaphone at the wrap of the shoot.

Rihanna should be thanking Belfast; the pop star has three sold-out shows in the Odyssey Arena for the rest of the week.

'Real Steel' Hugh Jackman believes it was 'destiny' to adopt his children

Hugh Jackman
The 'Real Steel' actor and his wife Deborra-Lee Furness were devastated when they were told they couldn't have kids naturally but now they know it was fate to welcome Oscar, 11, and six-year-old Ava into their lives.

He told Australia's Herald Sun newspaper: "It was painful. It's not easy. You put a lot of time and effort into it, so it's emotional. I think any parent can relate - trying to have children is wonderful and when you feel as though that's not going to happen, there's a certain anxiety that goes with it.

"We thought we'd have a kid or two biologically and then adopt. But when we decided we'd had enough of IVF, we went ahead with adoption.

"From the moment we started the adoption process, all the anxiety went away. I don't think of them as adopted - they're our children. Deb and I are believers in I suppose you could call it destiny. We feel things happened the way they are meant to. Obviously, biologically wasn't the way we were meant to have children."

Although he admits family life isn't always easy, he knows he and Deborra made the right choices.

He said: "Now, as we go through life together, sure there are challenges, but everyone's in the right place with the right people. It sounds airy-fairy, but it's something we feel very deeply."

Pete Doherty has written a song for Amy Winehouse

Pete Doherty
The former Libertines frontman played his last show in London "for a long time" last week and unveiled a track he has written as a tribute to the late singer, who died suddenly at her home in July aged 27.

Introducing the song, he said: "Amy Winehouse asked me a while ago if I had written any new songs. I played her something, and when I had finished, she looked at me and said, 'Is that it? Is that all you've got?"
The song he played was a slow, acoustic led number, and although the lyrics were hard to make out they include the line "oh Amy, she won't be around tonight".

Pete also dedicated the show to Amy and documentary maker Robin Whitehead, who was making a film about the singer and guitarist at the time of her death last year. He also announced that he will be now be taking time off to write new material.

He said: "This will be the last gig in a long time because we need to go and get some new things together so this is it for a while. I want to dedicate this show to the memory of Robin Whitehead and Amy Winehouse, two good friends of mine."
Pete has also recently played a version of Amy's song 'Tears Dry on Their Own' live, which he recently revealed he has recorded a reworked version of.

He said: "A couple of years ago when she first released it there was an idea kicked about that I was going to do an alternate version. I did actually write some alternate verses and record them but in the end no-one seemed to like it so it disappeared. But I've always loved that song, it's a f***ing amazing tune and I've always wanted to do some tribute."

Taylor Lautner worries girls are only interested in him because of his role in 'Twilight'


Taylor Lautner
The 19-year-old actor – who plays werewolf Jacob Black in the movie franchise – has previously been linked to Taylor Swift and his 'Abduction' co-star Lily Collins but admits he finds the dating scene tough because he never knows if women want him or Jacob.

He explained: "You definitely have to deal with whether girls are interested in me or Jacob. Sometimes it's hard. Time always lets you know what a person is really like.

"The fans love the characters and they would love anyone who as playing those characters. I'm just the guy who was able to bring Jacob to life."

Although Taylor and his co-star Robert Pattinson play love rivals in the vampire film franchise – their characters both being in love with Bella Swan, played by Kristen Stewart - he insists the rivalry between them doesn't spill over in to real life and they all have a great relationship off set.

In an interview with heat magazine, Taylor explained: "We've been filming together for three or four years and we've all become close. We're great friends and so supportive of one another. It would be a nightmare if there was any rivalry. Having to deal with that for years would be impossible.

"Robert's a great guy. He's hilarious and I think that's the thing people don't see enough of with him. I'm always laughing when I'm with that guy. He's hysterical."

Tristan MacManus' partner Nancy Grace - another waredrobe malfunction on 'DWTS' - VIDEO

Nancy Grace will surely make a few headlines this week and not for her Cha Cha, sparkly sexy dresses and sexy routines but for an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction aired on Monday's "Dancing With The Stars" (video below).

Her already low-cut dress failed to keep her tucked in as she danced the quickstep rigorously. Holding her final position of the dance for a few moments unaware of an exposed nipple until standing up straight where she quickly buried her face into her dance partner Tristan MacManus' shoulder while she fixed herself. The camera quickly cut to audience for a moment.

Arnold Schwarzenegger has ordered an eight foot tall bronze statue of himself

The actor has personally commissioned at least three "heroic" scale bronze statues which depict him in his body building prime.

The statues are all modelled on a smaller sculpture created in 1980, the year Arnold won his seventh Mr Olympia title, and cost around £100,000 each.

As many as seven of the statues will be made in total, with Tim Parks - the owner of TW Bronze, which is pouring the bronze for the statues – receiving a visit from Arnold, who told him he definitely wants "one for himself."

The 'Terminator' star even took a tour of Tim's operation, and told him "This is fantastic. This is fantastic," upon seeing the statues of himself. He only requested one minor change be made, that its patina be made a little darker.

The first of the statues is being shipped to Thal in Austria, the town where Arnold was born, which houses a museum dedicated to him. The second is set for Columbus, Ohio, where the Arnold Fitness Weekend – inspired by the star - is an annual event.

The third completed statue will be given to the former Governor of California.

When the subject of how many should be made in total, Tim suggested it "ought to be your number," in reference to the seven Mr Olympia titles he earned from 1970 to 1975 and again in 1980, to which Arnold replied: "perfect".

Arnold, 64, is currently locked in a divorce battle with his wife, Maria Shriver, after it emerged he had fathered a child with their housekeeper, Mildred Buena, and he has also moved back into acting, with roles line up in 'The Expendables 2' and he is currently in talks to appear in independent film 'Captive'.

Ellen DeGeneres called paramedics after experiencing chest pains

Ellen DeGeneres
The 53-year-old talk show host was suffering from discomfort all evening on Sunday, and when the pain continued into the next day she called the ambulance service.
Within minutes paramedics arrived at the Warner Bros. studios in Los Angeles where she records her series and also a crew from the Burbank Fire Department.
Speaking in a segment which will be aired on the 'Ellen DeGeneres Show' today, she said: "What happened was last night I was having chest pains. So this morning the paramedics came to look at me.

---------------------

"First of all, I'm fine … I woke up in the middle of the night. I was feeling like a tightness of my chest and all the scary things ... like something was heavy on my chest and it was a cat so I moved it. I still felt the tightness and heaviness so there was another cat under that cat. There were two cats on my chest.
"Then I got to work and it was still happening. I was still feeling the pains. So I was like, 'You know, I should check this out. It's better to be safe than sorry. Who doesn't want to see a fireman occasionally? …

We called the paramedics here on the Warner Bros. lot and about 50 trucks and ambulances, like one marching band short of a parade showed up outside of my office. Then they come in with an axe. Break the door down. It was open. I don't know why they did that. They came in, they asked me all the questions, 'How are you feeling? When did it start? Family history? … All the questions that they would ask but everything is fine."
Ellen – who is married to Portia de Rossi – has also thanked the paramedics for being so attentive and joked she has a particularly strong heart.
She said: "I have a baboon heart that I had put in earlier … It's not true. But I want to say thank you to all the paramedics and the nurses who showed up and everybody for caring so much … I appreciate it."

'X Factor's' Simon Cowell says Lady Gaga is one of the 'most boring singer in the world'

The music mogul believes the 'Born This Way' hitmaker, Beyonce Knowles and Katy Perry – who recently matched Michael Jackson's record of having five number one hit singles from the same album on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart - need to be on TV to shine because without a visual medium they are dull.

He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "If you only ever heard Lady Gaga, she's the most boring singer in the world. You've got to see her – you need TV.

Simon, 51, also poked fun at 'American Idol' host Ryan Seacrest, describing him as the "complete opposite" to "intelligent" US 'X Factor' presenter Steve Jones.

He added: "He's tall, dark, British – he's basically completely the opposite of Ryan Seacrest. You've got to add in intelligent as well."

Simon quit his role as a judge on 'American Idol' to launch the new version of his pop star search show.

Noel Gallagher says celebrities have wrecked twitter trying to sell people their 's**t' with it

Noel Gallagher
The 'AKA… What A Life!' singer isn't a fan of the micro-blogging site personally but he thought the concept was a good idea until he saw so many famous faces take to it and "bastardise" it for their own gain.

In a web interview with Yahoo!, he said: "I'm not a tweeter … Stuff like, 'Oh I'm going for a shower,' great. 'I slept in again, bugger.'

Life's too short for that kind of thing but I think those things like Facebook and twitter and stuff were started with the best of intentions to connect ordinary people around the world, like daughters travelling in Europe can tweet their mums. But as with everything celebrities get involved and bastardise it, trying to sell you their s**t. There's too much of that. Anything that's of any use famous people get hold of it and take it for themselves and it gets a bad rap. I'm like sitting here and thinking I hate twitter and I don't know why."

The former Oasis guitarist also believes the internet has destroyed the "magic and mystery" of musicians.

Noel – who admits he only got his first computer "at Christmas" – thinks it was better when fans knew less about their idols because it made their new albums more exciting.

The rock star – who is releasing his record 'Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds' on October 17 - said: "I don't think people need to know what colour socks I'm wearing today, I don't think people need to know what shower gel I'm using. There's too much information in the world and there's no magic or mystery anymore.

That's why I didn't announce I was in the studio making this album until 18 months down the line. Because it would be like, 'Yeah man I'm in the studio and today I recorded a song in my socks! And it was great man and it might turn out to be a disco song.' What's the point?' I was obsessed with the Smiths and there was none of that going on. You just waited and wondered what they were up to and then the album would come out in four weeks and it was like, 'Wow!' "

'Glee's' Amber Riley wants singer, song-writer Adele to be her best friend

The actress – who plays Mercedes Jones in 'Glee' - was thrilled when the British singer emailed her after seeing her perform one of her tracks on the musical drama but the US star now wants to take their bond even further.

She said: "When I covered Adele's song, she emailed to thank me.

"I chose to be a role model. I get a lot of letters from young girls and they need somebody who looks like them, someone who isn't what you'd expect in Hollywood.

"I'm very different to that standard image and I think they can relate to that."

Charlie Sheen thought Ashton Kutcher was 'terrific' on his 'Two and a Half Men' debut


The 46-year-old actor – who was replaced by the 33-year-old star after he was sacked from the show earlier this year following erratic behavior – found it "bizarre" watching the program after spending seven years on it, but he was "really impressed”.

He told 'Access Hollywood': "It was a big night for everybody on Monday night - for ‘Two and a Half',’ for us, for me.

"I think everybody won. I thought the show was really good. I thought [Ashton] was terrific.

"It was a little bizarre watching it, but yeah, for the most part I was really impressed with what they did.”

Charlie expects 'Two and a Half Men' to be a success without him and admitted it felt like watching a completely new show.

Singling out his former co-star Jon Cryer – who plays Alan Harper – he added: "Jon is Jon. He’s a freaking genius. I think [the show has] got a real shot. It felt like a pilot. It felt like a really good pilot."

The first episode of the series – which attracted around 27.8 million viewers - began with Charlie's alter-ego's funeral after his character was killed by a subway train in Paris – and it is not going to be the first time this year the 46-year-old star will see his own memorial service played out onscreen.

He explained: "That’s got to be the highest attended funeral of all time. And it’s interesting because I’m doing [a] film with Roman Coppola and there is a funeral scene in that. So I’m a guy that’s gonna have to survive my own funeral twice in the same year!

“That’s how I roll, right? No, it’s exciting, you know, it’s fun, it’s fake.”

Prince William reveals his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, is an 'important' part of his life who gives him invaluable advice

The 29-year-old royal – who is second in line to the British throne after his father Prince Charles – has a close relationship with the monarch and feels he can ask her any question.

As he has gotten older and his role as a member of the Royal Family has increased William – who married Duchess Catherine in April - needs her advice more and more.

In an extract from new book ‘Our Queen’ by Robert Hardman, he said:

“My relationship with my grandmother has gone from strength to strength. As a shy, younger man it could be harder to talk about weighty matters. It was, ‘This is my grandmother who is the queen, and these are serious historical subjects.’

“As I’ve got older, she’s become an even more important part of my life, so it’s much easier. And obviously, with the wedding, she was a massive help.

“There’s no question you can’t ask, and no point you can raise, that she won’t already know about - and have a better opinion about.”

The Duke of Cambridge has also revealed the 85-year-old monarch has always made it clear to him and his brother Prince Harry treat her as their grandmother first and the queen second.

And although she is happy to offer advice to him, Elizabeth encourages William to work things out for himself first.

He explained: “I say to people, ‘She’s my grandmother to me first and then she’s the queen.’ Words that come from her, I take very personally and I really appreciate … It’s very much the case that she won’t necessarily force advice on you. She’ll let you work it out for yourself. She’s always there for a question or two, for whatever it is you might need … But, just as she probably had to do, she feels that you have to work it out for yourself, that there are no set rules. You have to make it work. You have to do what you think is right.”

Bradley Cooper believes it is 'easier' to date a celebrity



The 'Hangover 2' actor – who has been romantically linked to Olivia Wilde and Jennifer Lope since splitting from Renee Zellweger earlier this year – thinks chemistry and connection are key factors in starting a relationship but believes romancing another person in the public eye can be more trouble-free as they understand life in the spotlight.

He told heat magazine: "Connection and chemistry are amazing things and if the other person is used to being in the media, it makes things easier."

Even though he is linked to so many famous and beautiful ladies, Bradley recently claimed he is too busy with his career to find the time to date anyone.

The 36-year-old star said: "I'm filming 'The Place Beyond The Pines' at the moment with Ryan Gosling in New York, so that's taking up a lot of my time.

"It's really exciting, but it doesn't leave much time for a relationship."

Lady Gaga to meet with President Obama to highlight bullying following Jamey Rodemeyer's suicide


The 'Born This Way' singer has been left distraught by the death of 14-year-old Jamey Rodemeyer from Buffalo, New York, who committed suicide last Sunday after enduring years of ridicule about his sexuality.

Gaga – who is a prominent supporter of gay rights – wants to petition the US leader to create legislation which makes bullying at any age a crime.

In a series of tweets, she wrote: "The past days I've spent reflecting, crying, and yelling. I have so much anger. It is hard to feel love when cruelty takes someones life.

"Jamey Rodemeyer, 14 yrs old, took his life because of bullying. Bullying must become be illegal. It is a hate crime.

"I am meeting with our President. I will not stop fighting. This must end. Our generation has the power to end it. Trend it #MakeALawForJamey (sic)"

Jamey had regularly blogged about the bullying he was suffering at school but his tormentors also followed him into cyberspace and several messages were left on his account on social media site Formspring calling him “gay and ugly” and encouraging him to kill himself.

Musical loving Hugh Jackman fractured wrestler Dolph Ziggler's jaw on WWE Raw


The Australian actor was acting as guest host on the show and after some verbal baiting from Dolph – who insisted on addressing him as Batman rather than his 'X-Men' character Wolverine - Hugh landed a punch on the wrestler's jaw causing the hairline fracture.

Although the punch was staged, it is believed the stunt went wrong, causing the grappler to have to undergo an MRI scan which confirmed the injury.

'Glee's' Jane Lynch admits she was once like cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester

The 51-year-old actress admits she used to be a lot like her 'Glee' character, menacing cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester, but thinks she is much "nicer" these days.

She said: “I was terrible. It was so Psychology 101 - I felt terrible inside and I projected it on everybody else. I made everybody bad, wrong.

“I was kind of shaming and humiliating, not unlike Sue Sylvester, so I had a lot to draw on. I wasn’t a nice person to have around. And I can say today, I’m kind of a nice person to have around!”

Jane – who is married to psychologist Lara Embry – is openly gay but admits she used to have a crush on 'Happy Days' star-turned-director Ron Howard when she was younger because he was "not at all sexual".

She told 'Access Hollywood': "It's a common - very common occurrence. Very safe guy.

The former WWE Diva has been dating the 'Ides of March' actor since last month and she admits she wasn't looking for love following her 2010 split from 'The Finder' star Geoff Stults after five years of dating.

'Inception' Tom Hardy says he's a 'softie' despite his tough guy persona

Tom Hardy
The actor is famous for his hard men roles in movies such as 'Inception', 'Bronson' and 'Warrior' but in real life he claims he's just a gentle guy who likes nothing more than relaxing at home with his fiancee.

Tom – who is engaged to actress Charlotte Riley and has a three-year-old son Louis from a previous relationship – said:

"There is a softie within me, you know, I'm someone's dad, I have a three year old who means the world to me. I really just want to be with my missus and my son and my dog and do films and be left alone."

When portraying tough guys, Tom – who stars in new spy movie 'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy' opposite Gary Oldman – has based his performances on what would frighten him in real life.

I think the most fundamental thing about security is to know where your vulnerabilities are and where your weak spots are and because I'm terrified of being damaged I've learnt to see it coming, so when you see my characters those are people who scare me."

Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds planning a secret wedding


The 47-year-old actress and the 'Change-Up' star – who split from Scarlett Johansson after two years of marriage in December 2010 - are believed to have recently vacationed in Wyoming, and while on vacation the pair discussed the idea of marriage after the actor bonded with her 20-month-old son Louis.

A source told America's Star magazine: "Ryan told her he was ready to tie the knot whenever she wants. And after seeing how quickly she's bonded with baby Louis, she decided she's ready to pull the trigger, too.

"So they started discussing the logistics of pulling off a low-key, barefoot wedding that would reflect their laid-back lifestyle."

Scarlett – who was briefly linked to Sean Penn following her divorce from Ryan – is reported to be happy for the pair.

A source said: "Since Scarlett likes and respects Sandra so much, it doesn't bother her that she's with Ryan now."

Jason Bateman visits Ireland for ‘The Change Up’ premiere - VIDEO

Jason Bateman is a dutiful actor.  After his film with Ryan Reynolds, The Change Up, pretty much crashed and burned at the box office when it opened in August – not to mention the critical mauling it received – Bateman stayed on the publicity trail anyway and plugged the European release of the turkey.  His itinerary included the Dublin premiere.

Bateman, the star of the cult TV classic Arrested Development, is really hitting his prime this year, The Change Up notwithstanding.  He was one of the ensemble stars of the hit Horrible Bosses with Colin Farrell and he’s got a host of other projects in the pipeline.  He’s also expecting child number two with his wife Amanda Anka, daughter of the crooner Paul Anka.

Bateman was asked by an Irish entertainment website about his favorite Irish actor, and not surprisingly it was Farrell. “I didn't have any scenes with Colin Farrell in Horrible Bosses but I bumped into him on set and I have to say he is my favorite,” he said.

He also told the Evening Herald that Farrell was “hilarious. He was really great on set, I loved how he played his character. I'd really like to work with him again.”

Bateman didn’t claim any Irish ancestry during his day in Dublin, and in fact his mother is British.  But he enjoyed his time in the Irish capital and wouldn’t mind coming back.

"I've been here for 24 hours and I got to look around a bit but I would have loved to stay longer. I brought my three-year-old daughter with me and she really enjoyed it here too,” he said.

The advert contains shots of young people rioting and marching. These scenes are broken up with scenes of people relaxing.

Beck describes the commercial as “shocking” and says it is “glorifying revolution”.
