It’s official Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart go splitsville - moving truck spotted outside LA home

Moving vans spotted outside their love nest
Is it Breaking Dawn or broken dreams?

If Breaking Dawn is the name of the final episode of the Twiglight saga, could Broken Dreams describe the breakup that seems to suggest that Robsten (the on-scree and off romance between Robert Pattinson and Kirsten Stewart) is finally over?

According to E! Online, moving trucks were spotted at Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart's upscale home in Los Angeles on Saturday.

Bringing the movers in is never a good sign in a love affair, if you're moving out of your lovers house rather than into it.

Pattinson's home has been quiet as the crypt since the pretty boy British actor began hiding out there last week after news of the cheating scandal with Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders broke.

Some tinsel town cynics have suggested that the romance was never real to begin with and that all of this drama is just a last minute attempt to inject some relevance into the flagging vampire franchise. Others consider that heresy and insist the trauma is real.

So the question is can Robsten be saved? Or will their romance end up the same way that their posh Hollywood pad is, abandoned and seemingly forgotten.

Both Twilight stars have been completely out of the public eye since the news broke.

A source close to Pattinson reportedly told People magazine that the 26-year-old is 'heartbroken and angry' and not currently in contact with Stewart.

We predict storms ahead.

Lindsay Lohan involved in another car accident

Lindsay Lohan
The actress got behind the wheel of her black Porsche Panamera after a shopping trip in Beverly Hills, California on Wednesday.

While she was driving down the popular Sunset Boulevard, Lindsay reportedly tapped the back of a silver Mustang that wasn't moving.

A woman in the Mustang said: "We were sitting at a light and somebody hit us."

The female claimed a male passenger in Lindsay's car apologized and left his phone number, before telling her they had to keep going because paparazzi were following them.

The Mustang's damage appeared to be extremely minor and cosmetic, according to website TMZ, but it is unknown if Lindsay's car suffered any damage.

The 26-year-old star was thought to be traveling from a Chanel boutique to the Chateau Marmont hotel in West Hollywood.

It was the same vehicle she drove when she had a massive crash on the Pacific Coast Highway last month.
Following the crash she was taken to hospital and apparently later told friend that the crash was down to a mechanical failure.

One Direction’s Niall Horan wishes he were more like US Olympian Michael Phelps

Not quite Michael Phelps - Niall Horan topless
Despite already holding worldwide fame in the palm of his hand, One Direction’s Niall Horan tweeted on Saturday that he wishes he were more like famed US Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps.

“@georgie_hawkes yeh im the same, watchin the heats of the swimmin on the telly! Just wana be like phelps,” Horan tweeted on Saturday.

Unfortunately for both Horan and Phelps, the American swimmer gave an underwhelming performance during his first showing at the London Olympics. Phelps still has more chances to reclaim the glory he cinched in 2008 with more races to come in London.

Horan, native of Mullingar in Ireland, along with the rest of his bandmates in One Direction are reportedly a part of the Olympics massive closing ceremonies and will be performing with other great British acts including The Spice Girls and Adele. One Direction was formed via the 2010 UK X Factor competition under the leadership of Simon Cowell.

"Twilight" hunk Robert Pattinson was ready to propose to cheating beau Kristen Stewart

Heartbroken and humiliated ‘Twilight’ star Robert Pattinson was reportedly set to propose to girlfriend and ‘Twilight’ costar Kristen Stewart before it was revealed that the actress had an affair with her ‘Snow White and the Huntsman’ director Rupert Sanders.


The Daily Mail reports that a source revealed that Pattinson was preparing to spend the rest of his life with Kristen Stewart.

“'He had bought the house in Los Angeles to be their home and saw them staying there for a long time,” the source said.

That all came to a screeching halt when Stewart’s infidelities came to light. Perhaps making matters even worse, Rupert Sanders is a married father of two, and someone whom Pattinson trusted professionally.

“Now Rob is angry – he’s left the mansion and not spoken to her since. They have exchanged heated text messages only.” Pattinson reportedly wants to have a “man to man” chat with Sanders regarding the drama.

Despite Stewart releasing a statement saying that she was “so, so sorry” about her “momentary indiscretion,” Pattinson reportedly still doesn’t know what to believe.

“Kristen has already betrayed his trust by cheating, so he can't be sure that she will tell him exactly what went on between her and Rupert. Rupert has a wife and a family to save, so Rob feels like he has nothing left to lose and would be honest with him.”

“He still can’t fathom why she cheated. Kristen is begging for another chance. Robert is undecided.”

Robert Pattinson wants to have "chat" with Rupert Sanders

Robert Pattinson wants to have a little "chat" with Rupert Sanders over cheating girlfriend Kristen Stewart.

Heartbroken Robert Pattinson is desperate to know all the details of girlfriend Kristen Stewart's betrayal and he is ready to hear it from the man she cheated with, married "Snow White" director Rubert Sanders.

According to a source close to the "Twilight" star: “Rob wants to have a man-to-man chat with Rupert to find out exactly what happened between him and Kristen.”

Pattinson moved out of the L.A. home he shares with Stewart after the 22-year-old actress was photographed kissing the 41-year-old Sanders, according to the NY Daily News.

“Rob was really blindsided by this and he’s going through the typical stages of being cheated on,” said the source, “He was hurt and heartbroken, then angry and pissed off, and now he just wants answers. He feels like he needs to know exactly what happened, how far it went and how many times, so he can figure out if this is something he can move past. He’s not ready to talk with Kristen, it’s too painful, so he’s going to Rupert.”

Pattinson told Italian Vanity Fair last year: “There is one thing I’ve never understood. Why people cheat.”

Mariah Carey has stunned 'American Idol' staff - with her normal requests

Mariah Carey

The 'Hero' hitmaker has renowned for her outrageous backstage demands - which in the past have included 20 white kittens, butterfly-shaped confetti,  baskets of puppies, white roses and a "tea service for eight" - but insiders claim there is nothing unusual about the dressing room set-up she has requested in her new job as a judge on the talent show.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "It's all standard stuff, nothing out of the ordinary. It's not like they'll need to put a new roof on the building. It's standard lists, whether it's for water, soda, veggies, snacks. It's all fairly normal."

In 2010, leaked details of Mariah's tour rider specified that her dressing room have "no busy patterns" although "black, dark grey, cream and dark pink" are all fine, and she should also be provided with a "lamp or clip light," so harsh lighting can be turned off.

The 42-year-old star is also very particular about the temperature of the room, 75 degrees Fahrenheit, while she likes to be surrounded by two dozen white roses and vanilla aromatherapy candles in order to unwind after a show.

One Direction played prank on Harry Styles during interview

Harry Styles gets pranked
One Direction’s Harry Styles was left embarrassed when his bandmates convinced him he was delivering a baby on television.

American children’s channel Nickelodeon got an actress to pretend to be pregnant and go into labour before she interviewed the band.

Louis Tomlinson, 20, and Zayn Malik, 19, were in on the practical joke.

Harry, 18, tried to calm the woman down before helping her with her breathing exercises.

He shouted: “Why is no-one here? Can somebody help us?”

Even though he panicked throughout the ordeal, he couldn’t resist laughing when the deceiving presenter announced she had “farted”.

Liam Payne, 18, also fell for the charade and rang the woman’s husband, who was also fake. Niall Horan, 18, simply sat away from the situation looking dumbfounded.

After several minutes, the woman eventually revealed: “You’ve all been pranked by Nickelodeon.”
Pleased colleagues Louis and Zayn high-fived each other once the prank was revealed as poor Harry buried his face in his hands.

Harry said afterwards: “I was actually thinking this is going to be a great press story. One Direction deliver a child!”

The 'Twilight Saga' stars' off-screen relationship has hit a rough patch after she admitted that she had cheated on him with 'Snow White and the Huntsman' director Rupert Sanders.

According to reports Robert thinks that "all the trust has gone" after he found out about her affair.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Rob is devastated and deeply hurt."

"They spoke on the phone and he said 'You've completely humiliated me'. All the trust has gone."

Robert, 26, has been dating his 22-year-old co-star for three years told him the fling was just a "one off".

He demanded she apologise for her involvement with the 41-year-old film boss and she agreed.

She said in a statement: "I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused.

"This momentary indiscretion has jeopardised the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry."

The source added: "Robert wanted the world to know that he hadn't done anything wrong and that she had made a fool of him publicly.

"He still can't fathom why she cheated. Kristen is begging for another chance. Robert is undecided."

An American magazine revealed it had pictures of the pair "in a marathon make-out session" in Hollywood.

The father-of-two's model wife Liberty Ross, 33, is also furious about the fling. Kristen is reportedly writing to her to say sorry.

Tom Cruise branded a victim of Scientology by great grandson’s founder

Jamie DeWolf said that his grandfather L. Ron Hubbard is a "partly red-headed charismatic lying con-man pseudoscience self-help author."

He told CBS5 News: "Tom Cruise is another victim of the mirage that my great grandfather created around himself."

He added that in his opinion Katie Holmes had to escape from Tom because "the more she saw behind the curtain the more horrified she probably was."

Jamie says that Scientology devastated his family and caused his grandfather, Ron DeWolf, to change his name when he finally left the group.

Jamie said about his mother, who never discussed the church:  "It destroyed and devoured both her grandfather and her father."

Twelve years ago, Jamie did a one-man show about his relatives which became popular on video sharing website YouTube, however, the church did not like it.

He revealed: "Within two to three days Scientologists were at my door with fake cover stories claiming that they were performers doing a show with me. They had people following me, they were on me immediately."

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart both cried after she admitted to cheating

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart– who have been dating for almost four years since meeting on the set of the ‘Twilight Saga’ franchise – have come face to face since the truth about her relationship with director Rupert Sanders was revealed and it left them both devastated.

A source told Hollywoodlife.com: “Rob has been in contact with Kristen and has already had the awkward first meeting with her in person since the news. Tears have certainly been shed over the whole situation from both. It’s a complete mess right now with them."

Robert, 26, is sure to have been devastated after hearing that Kristen, 22 and 41-year-old married father of two, Rupert, couldn't keep their hands off each other in Los Angeles last week.

The pair were spotted indulging in a series of passionate embraces by a photographer who said the 'Snow White and the Huntsman' director was "all over" his leading lady.

A source told Us Weekly magazine: "He was all over her" while another source added they "would only take a break [from kissing] when they thought someone was walking by".

A photographer followed Kristen, 22, from her Los Feliz home on July 17, when the actress pulled into the parking lot of a deserted building and Rupert, 41, got into her car.

The source explained: "It seemed like they couldn't get enough. Kristen was sitting up with her back against the driver's-side window, and this guy was kissing her entire body."

The pair left when they thought they were being watched and drove to an area near the Hollywood sign and Kristen appeared "swept up in the moment" as they kissed and cuddled outside the car.

While the area they were in was quite deserted, they were disturbed by some dog walkers and each time "as soon as they heard a voice, they would split up and walk in opposite directions".

Robert Pattinson has moved out of the Los Angeles home he shared with Kristen Stewart.

The heartbroken actor has packed his bags and left the couple’s residence after she confessed to cheating on him with director Rupert Sanders and he is now said to be in seclusion.

A source told People: "I'm not sure they'll be able to recover from this. Robert is heartbroken and angry.”
After pictures emerged of Kristen and Rupert - who has two children with his wife Liberty Ross – kissing, the 22-year-old actress issued a statement saying how sorry she was.

Kristen - who started dating Robert after meeting on the set of the first 'Twilight' film -said: "I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardised the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry."

Kristen is now determined to win Robert back with the insider adding:"Kristen really loves Rob more than anything. He's all that matters to her right now."

Kristen Stewart took Rupert Sanders' children out for ice-cream

Before the news broke of her cheating on Robert Pattinson with the married director, the 22-year-old took his daughter out for ice cream.

A source told website RadarOnline: "During the press junkets for 'Snow White and the Huntsman', Kristen was already close to Rupert's kids.

"She treated his eldest daughter to ice cream in Los Angeles when there was a break in her press interviews back in the latter end of May."

The insider continued: "At that time no one suspected anything was up - there was no reason to - but looking back at it now it seems pretty suspicious.

"The affair could have started back then - and everyone was blindsided. Why else would you take out a married man's kid for ice cream?"

Kristen issued a public apology to boyfriend Robert on Wednesday (25.07.12) where she called the illicit affair a "momentary indiscretion."

She said: "I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry."

It came after Us Weekly magazine claimed the 'Twilight Saga' star and 41-year-old filmmaker could hardly keep their hands off one another and a series of photos confirmed the affair.

One photographer said: "He was all over her. [Kristen] would only take a break [from kissing] when they thought someone was walking by."

One Direction’s Harry Styles was pursued by Sophie Anderton

One Direction's Harry Styles
The One Direction singer went to London club Jalouse on Wednesday night and as soon as the 35-year-old model-and-TV star - who appeared on British reality show 'I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!' - spotted Harry, 18, she decided she wanted to get close to him.

Although the heartthrob is known for his love of older women - with him previously dating presenter Caroline Flack, 32 - Harry ignored cougar Sophie's advances.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "As soon as Harry arrived she clocked him and headed in his direction.

"He said, 'hi,' but he was being polite to everyone. It looked like he didn't know who she was. Wherever he moved, she followed. If he went to one end of the club, she went after him.

The source added: "She eventually got the hint and settled down on a nearby table. It was uncomfortable to watch."

Harry was partying with bandmate Niall Horan, Olly Murs and Aston Merrygold after winning a golf day against JLS.

Harry and the boys started their evening at the new Rose club in Marylebone, north London, before heading to Jalouse and eventually calling it a night at 5am.

Lady Gaga defends Kristen Stewart's cheating on Robert Pattinson

Lady Gaga defends Kristen Stewart
22-year-old actress Kristen Stewart has publicly apologized to her boyfriend of four years Robert Pattinson after she was caught in a steamy make-out session with her 'Snow White And The Huntsman' director Rupert Sanders and Lady Gaga has weighed in , telling people to leave them alone.

She tweeted: "Geez this kirstew rob stuff is brutal. Makes me sad the way press acts. Hope they're ok (sic)."

Kristen's statement read: "I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardised the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry."

Sources close to the actress insist she wasn't having an affair with Rupert and it was a fleeting mistake.

An insider said: "Kristen is absolutely devastated. It was a mistake and a complete lapse in judgment."

Kristen and Robert, 26, have been dating since meeting on the set of 'Twilight' four years ago, in which they play vampire Edward Cullen and his love interest Bella Swan.

Sir Paul McCartney is excited about seeing Usain Bolt at the Olympics

Sir Paul McCartney (Robert Gauthier / Los Angeles…)
Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney is a huge fan of athletics and is hoping to see Jamaican runner Usain Bolt - the fastest man on earth - run in the men's 100 metres sprint final at London 2012.

He said: "I'm a big fan of athletics, when that's on the TV, I don't go out, so the Olympic Games are great for that for me. I love the sprints, obviously the 100 metres, and I've got to see Mr. Bolt, he's just a bit phenomenal, I don't think anyone can beat him.

"I like the swimming finals. It's a great thing and a big year. It's easy to be cynical and you always get that, but I think now it's happening, people are getting fired up."

Paul is performing as part of the Olympics Opening Ceremony on Friday (27.07.12) and rather than getting a fee he is getting tickets to his favourite events.

In an interview with BBC Radio 6 Music, he said: "That's one of the perks. They don't pay you to perform, but what does happen is you get tickets to events, so they asked me what I would ideally like to go to, and so I sent a little list."

While he will take part in the ceremony - directed by 'Slumdog Millionaire' filmmaker Danny Boyle - Paul is remaining tight-lipped about what exactly he will play.

He added: "It's a secret; he won't let me tell you. Danny Boyle is directing it and he has a pretty good idea of what he wants to do, and to be honest I've pretty much listened to him. He knows what he's got and how the rest of the show goes."

One Direction's Niall hosts lively BBQ in London

Niall Horan

One Direction's Niall Horan's nighttime barbecue has won him no new new fans among his London neighbors. According to the Telegraph, Horan's wild party reportedly got 'louder as the night went on' on Tuesday and this was before his guests broke out the drums.

The dyed blond Irish singer with the gruff demeanor was hosting a noisy cookout on the roof of his apartment block in London on Tuesday which saw he and his friends singing, strumming on guitars, and then banging on drums all night long.

If there was one thing his neighbors wanted it was some moments of peace so they didn't have to be up all night. They may not have known they were beautiful but they obviously didn't know they were too loud.

'They got louder as the night went on,' a source told the British tabloid The Sun.

'Music was being pumped out and in all the excitement Niall jumped on his life-sized Barack Obama model and its arm came off.'

Niall must be getting leery of all the press attention. Or maybe he's fed up with his own fans? Recently Horan was filmed addressing a group of young girls at Dublin Airport as a 'shower of c-words' as he exited Dublin Airport.

Horan apologized to his fans via Twitter after the video hit the net.

'Really sorry if I caused any offense. It was just banter with fans who I think of more as mates,' he tweeted. 'But I understand that it's not a word I should be using at all.'

He said: "I am utterly distraught about the pain I have caused my family. My beautiful wife and heavenly children are all I have in this world. I love them with all my heart. I am praying that we can get through this together."

41-year-old Rupert's statement comes not long after Kristen, 22, also admitted her guilt and reached out publicly to her boyfriend Robert Pattinson, saying how much she loves him.

She said: "I'm deeply sorry for the hurt and embarrassment I've caused to those close to me and everyone this has affected. This momentary indiscretion has jeopardized the most important thing in my life, the person I love and respect the most, Rob. I love him, I love him, I'm so sorry."

Will Ferrell's two-year-old son loves telling people they have a ‘little penis’

Laker fans Will Ferrell and and his son Magnus Ferrell at Staple Center.
The 'Campaign' actor says Axel - his third child with wife Viveca Paulin - is being encouraged by his older brothers, Magnus, eight, and five-year-old Mattias to insult random strangers, and while he is trying to discourage his behaviour, he admits he finds his gags very funny.

He told 'Late Show' host David Letterman: "The two year old unfortunately is just wandering into vulgarity - he has two big brothers, it wasn't from me.

"I'm trying to prevent it. I'm doing everything humanly possible. I'm having a good laugh and it's out of my hands, I can't control it.

"He thinks it's hilarious - and so do his brothers - to walk up to anyone, male or female, and say, 'You have a little penis.' He'll get on a roll and say it over and over again."

Will is even planning to use the youngster's love of the insult to play a joke on some showbiz pals.

He explained: "My brother-in-law wants me to have a big Hollywood party and invite loads of actors, then hopefully he'll walk up to a George Clooney type and say 'You have a little penis'. He thinks it would be really funny."

Meanwhile, Will revealed his 'The Campaign' co-star Zach Galifianakis gave him a generous gift for his recent 45th birthday.

The 'Hangover' actor presented his pal with a cheque for $5 million - but then was told to "wait to cash it".
Will added: "There might be a hold on it."

One Direction's Liam Payne thinks it would be 'boring' to be a solo artist

entertainment.ie
The singer - who originally auditioned as a solo star for the 2010 series of UK show 'The X Factor', before show boss Simon Cowell put him in One Direction - couldn't imagine performing on his own now as he's grown used to having his bandmates with him.

He said: "I think it would be massively, massively boring! I don't know how Justin Bieber does it, but full props to him. I like being around the boys. I enjoy other people's company and it's a lot more fun being in a band on stage. There's so much work in this industry that if I had to do it on my own, I don't know what I'd do. I'd be very bored and very boring!"

'What Makes You Beautiful' singer Liam - who is joined in the group by Niall Horan, Harry Styles, Louise Tomlinson and Zayn Malik - loves the fun side of being a pop star, but sys people don't realise how much hard work it can also be.

He told Top of the Pops magazine: "It's really, really enjoyable and lots of hard work. I'd say that's about it really. The downsides are that you really miss family and friends, and you really want to see more of them."

Former Miss World Rosanna Davison plans Mauritius vacation

Rosanna Davison (Mark Stedman/Photocall Ireland)
You may remember Irish beauty queen Rosanna Davison from a few years back, when she was named Miss World.  She’s also the daughter of Chris deBurgh, the singer famous (or infamous) for that annoying hit “Lady in Red.”

Rosanna is living in Dublin, modeling and socializing, of course.  She’s also planning her annual family holiday to the island of Mauritius, even though many in Ireland are calling for a boycott of the nation because Irish honeymooner Michaela McAreavey was murdered there in 2011, and no one has been brought to justice for the crime.

Rosanna, 28, has no intention of finding another island where the sun shines for her end of year kickback with the folks.

"I completely understand why (Michaela’s) family, friends and relatives will have developed a forever-tainted view of Mauritius and it's hard to even put into words how devastated I am for both families,” the busty blond told the Sunday Independent.

"My sympathies also extend to the majority of good, honest and hard-working people living on the island who must weather the damaging consequences. We will be returning to the island this Christmas and New Year."

Rosanna and her family have visited the island since 1995, she adds. "One of the most prominent reasons for our return every year is the genuinely friendly and open Mauritian people.”

'Total Recall’ star Colin Farrell relaxes in Cancun

Colin Farrell in Cancun
Colin Farrell is looking HOT these days, as he showed during a weekend stroll in Cancun, Mexico with his ever-present sister Claudine, who also works as his personal assistant.

Total Recall, his hotly anticipated remake of the Arnold Schwarzenegger film, opens nationwide on August 3, and he’ll be back home in Dublin on August 14 for the European premiere, along with co-stars Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale.  His Irish fans are surely going to like what they see.

“I actually like the gym,” Farrell, 36, told USA Today. “I find peace in it. Which is... weird. I never thought that would be me.”

The old Colin used to have no time for healthy pursuits, as evidenced by old interview.  'I see these quotes, ‘Working out for me is lifting a Carlsberg.’  It was true at the time. But now, things have changed.”

Making the film wasn’t at first appealing to Farrell, who had fond memories of the first Total Recall.

''I loved Arnie in the original Total Recall, which I was when I was 15 or 16. There were some funny one liners, there were some great action sequences and really fun performances from Arnie and Sharon Stone. So when I was approached about a new version I was dubious,” he said.

“I didn't feel the need to fill those size 16 shoes or 18 shoes or whatever size foot Arnie has. The film felt different enough that I could go and make it my own.”

Robert Pattinson blindsided by Kristen Stewart cheating scandal

Rumors are flying that 'Twilight' starlet and longtime beau of Robert Pattinson Kristen Stewart has been caught redhanded cheating with her 'Snow White and the Huntsman' director Rupert Sanders.

Just two days before the rumors went public, Stewart and Pattinson appeared together this week at the annual Teen Choice Awards where they scooped up awards for their work on the 'Twilight' films.

Us Weekly magazine has plastered a photograph of the allegedly cheating Kristen Stewart and her director turned lover Rupert on its cover, indicating that the two had a more than just a professional relationship.

A source also told People magazine: "Kristen is absolutely devastated. It was a mistake and a complete lapse in judgment."

Reps for neither Kristen, Rob nor Rupert have yet to make any comment that either validates or denies the swirling rumors.

A source close to Robert told E! News that he has always found fame "very difficult and isolating" and has long thought of Kristen as "the only person who he can talk to about that."

The source added: “He feels like they are both on the same level and they understand one another."

"He worships her. He doesn't think there is another woman on the planet who is as beautiful and kind as her. He wants to be with her 24/7, he wants to marry her... as far as he is concerned, Kristen is his perfect match ... Kristen is perfect to him. That's why he's always known that someday she would be his wife."

Even more shocking, Kristen's alleged hookup Rupert Sanders is married to 33-year-old model, Liberty Ross  - who also starred in ‘Snow White’ as Queen Eleanor. Sanders and Ross have two young children, Skyla and Tennyson, together.

Irish Kim Kardashian lookalike tipped to land US reality show -- Georgia Salpa in talks with producers

Kim Kardashian lookalike Georgia Salpa
Georgia Salpa, an Irish model who has already landed the covers of every international branch of men’s lifestyle magazine FHM, is in the US for meetings with agents that could land her a reality show that would make her “one of Ireland’s biggest stars in ages,” according to the Mirror.

Salpa, who appeared on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year, has been mistaken for Kim Kardashian in the past, IrishCentral previously reported. Salpa lasted two weeks on the show and was the third celebrity evicted.

“There’s been lots of talk between US producers and her agents in Ireland and the UK,” a source apparently told the Mirror. “She could definitely come away with her own show.”

More firmly established is that Salpa has been meeting with US modeling agents. She’s also tweeted several pictures of herself in California with her boyfriend, Joe Penna.

It’s also been rumored that Salpa will appear on ITV’s ‘I’m a celebrity - get me out of here!’

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis spotted sharing an intimate kiss

The reported embrace between Kunis and Kutcher. Blanco/X17online.com
The pair - who starred in TV series 'That '70s Show' together - have repeatedly denied they are dating in recent months, but after they were caught in a passionate embrace, speculation is rife it is only a matter of time before they confirm their romance.

Ashton and Mila were seen locking lips at the Hollywood wrap party for 'Jobs' - the biopic based on the life of late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs - and didn't care who saw them.

Mila - who was previously in a long-term relationship with Macaulay Culkin - recently claimed she was single, despite rumours linking her to Ashton.

She said: "I am totally single. Listen [Ashton and I] hang out. We've known each other for 15 years, we have mutual friends. We're comfortable with one another. That's it! There's no crazy love story, nothing more. I am very private and I've never commented on my personal life.

Robert Pattinson has hinted he wants to marry 'Twilight' co-star Kristen Stewart

'Breaking Dawn Part 1' still. Entertainment One.

While he hit out at reports that the couple - who have been in a long-term relationship since meeting each other on the set of the 'Twilight Saga' films – are already engaged, Robert says it is a distinct possibility in the future because he has never felt this way about anyone before.

He told BlackBook magazine: “There was a magazine, with these pictures, saying I was getting married. No one ever knows what is true or what isn’t. Even my own mum called to ask me if it was true. It’s not. At least, not yet. But it is true that Kristen has always done something to me that others haven’t."

Robert also revealed being famous has its disadvantages, such as having to pay full price for things because he can no longer claim poverty.

He explained: “I learned to drive by people crashing into me. The first time anyone said anything about my being famous was when I tried to buy a car a few years ago. It was an ’89 BMW convertible for $1,000 I found on Craigslist.

"I went out to the hills to take it on a test drive and, of course, almost crashed. A few days later I went back to pick it up. I had said I was an actor and the guy had looked me up. When I went back, he said, ’Dude, do you know you’re number two on IMDB? I thought, ‘S**t, now I can’t ask for the 200 bucks off.'"

Jonas Brothers ‘could release new music by end of the year’

Clark Samuels/Startraks
Joe Jonas says he and brothers Kevin and Nick are back in the studio and preparing new material, which could be ready for release sooner than fans think.

He told JustJaredJr.com: "I think before the end of the year definitely. We've got a couple opportunities this year concert-wise that we might do so you might hear it there!"

The material will be the group's first release since 2009, and Joe said their sound has changed since their previous efforts.

He added: "I think they have more mature lyrics and as we're getting older we're able to talk about different things and we each have different inspirations.

"I'm really happy with the music though. I feel like it's kind of more back to what it should be, more where the roots are, meaning instruments. You know, it's not so programmed and all off a keyboard and electronic stuff, it's almost organic."

Before reuniting in the studio, the brothers have been taking a break from each other, with Nick appearing in
Broadway musical 'How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying', while Kevin has been filming a new reality TV series 'Married to Jonas' with his wife Danielle. Joe has kept a lower profile, but appeared as a guest judge on 'American Idol' in 2010.

One Direction furious after staff fill their dressing room with toys

Styles tweeted this picture of the felt pens left in the dressing room.

Apparently the band which consists of Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik, and Louis Tomlinson, were insulted when backstage staff at a concert left children's items for their personal use during downtime at the venue.

A worker told the Daily Star newspaper: "They filled the room with kids' stuff - toys, comics, colouring books and crayons.

"The lads weren't very impressed. Harry Styles was the most offended and asked for them to be taken out. Crew were told to remove everything from the dressing room immediately."

They continued: "Everyone backstage thought it was funny. It was meant to be a harmless joke. Harry, however, failed to see the funny side."

The 19-year-old even used micro-blogging website twitter to tell his followers what had happened before the show at the Echo Arena in Liverpool, England.

Harry tweeted a picture of some of the colouring books and felt pens, saying: "I know we're young but I feel like colouring books in the dressing room is a little far."

Sir Michael Caine blames himself for breakdown of his first marriage

Caine. Guardian.co.uk
 The 79-year-old actor wed actress Patricia Haines when he was just 22 and he admits he was unable to cope when their daughter Dominique was born.

He said: "I wish I'd known that if you fall in love, you don't have to marry. I fell in love with Patricia Haines and we were married a few weeks later.

"I sometimes got small jobs on television - just walk-on parts, no dialogue - but gave up acting work because Pat was more talented and had more chance of success. I began a long line of soul-destroying jobs.

"I worked in a laundry, I washed up in a restaurant and had a stint as a plumber's mate.

"Pat became pregnant and we had our wonderful daughter Dominique, who is now 56. But it was the wonderful straw that broke an already very weak camel's back.

"I walked out of the marriage. The marriage breakdown was entirely my fault. I was too young and immature to take on the poverty and personal and professional failure."

Michael - who has been married to second wife Shakira for 39 years - had to rely on his parents for help after he split from Patricia.

And 'The Dark Knight Rises' star will always be grateful for the support his mother Ellen and father Maurice gave him.

He added to The Sun newspaper: "I collapsed like a house of cards. I was out of work, had no money and was forced, at the age of 23, to return to the council house where I'd lived with my mum and dad and rely on their generosity again."

One Direction’s Niall Horan gets ready to hit the road

Niall Horan
Drivers, watch out! One fifth of the UK’s hottest pop boyband One Direction, Niall Horan is reportedly preparing to take his drivers test.

Speaking to the Irish Sun, Niall’s brother Greg Horan said “Niall is working on sorting out his driver’s licence in London and then he might splash out on a Range Rover or something.”

However, while Greg speculates that his brother Niall may splurge on a Range Rover, he insists that his brother is smart when it comes to money. “He’s not going to go out and blow all his money and I’m sure when he sees a house he wants he will buy it.”

Some of Niall’s One Direction bandmates have recently made headlines by treating themselves to luxurious gifts, including new bachelor pads and top of the line cars, something to which Greg believes Niall doesn’t feel the pressure to follow.

Niall’s brother said, “He is very independent and will do what he wants at the end of the day, but I can’t see him ever losing the run of himself.”

“When Niall is back home, he is just Niall and there’s not much talk about the band. He still has the same friends and wants to go to the same places, and we still treat him the same.”

Speaking to the seemingly endless rumors about Horan’s love life, Greg confirmed that “He’s still single and I don’t think having a girlfriend is for him at the minute — just because he is so busy.”

George Clooney thinks he’s going to hell when he dies

George Clooney

As one of Hollywood’s leading A-listers, George Clooney is beginning to reflect on his life in his older age.

Now Magazine in the UK reports that Clooney said to the Sunday Express’s S Magazine: “I was watching Up In The Air [a film of his from 2009] and I thought: ‘Jesus, who's the old grey-haired guy?’ I never wear make-up for movies and now it's starting to show.”

“But I'm kind of comfortable with getting older because it's better than the other option, which is being dead. So I'll take getting older.”

“Well, I know that when I die I'm going to hell,” Clooney also said.

Some may say that Clooney’s got a living still left to do - in the marriage department, in particular. The perpetual bachelor who boasts a long string of relationships with beautiful beaus is currently dating 32 year old Stacy Keibler.

Recently, rumors began circulating that the two may be headed for the altar after Keibler’s parents were on hand in Italy visiting the couple, an indication that Clooney and Keibler’s relationship is still growing stronger.

Anne Hathaway enjoyed bashing men "a little too much" in 'The Dark Knight Rises'- VIDEO

Anne Hathaway as Catwoman

The 29-year-old actress plays Catwoman in the Batman movie, and she loved grappling with guys in a more action-packed role than she usually takes on.

Speaking at the European premiere of 'The Dark Knight Rises' at London's Leicester Square on Wednesday, she told BANG Showbiz: "Being in the movie was fun because I had to learn to beat up guys - I enjoyed that a little too much."

Christian Bale reprises his role as Batman/Bruce Wayne in the third movie in Christopher Nolan's trilogy, and Anne found the 38-year-old star "really inspiring" to act alongside.

She added: "The first minute you work with Christian Bale it's just amazing. I found him to be really inspiring. It was really great to work with him."

The brunette beauty looked stunning in a white designer dress beaded with silver sequinned flowers at the premiere, and she admitted she loved wearing her skin-tight cat-suit in the blockbuster.

She explained: "I probably should've felt more pressure playing Catwoman because of her history but I knew who was directing me so I focused on trusting Chris.

"I felt so lucky to be the one wearing the cat-suit, I just loved wearing it every chance I got."

Anne was joined at the premiere by fellow cast members Christian Bale and his wife Sandra Blazic, Tom Hardy and his fiancee Charlotte Riley, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Cillian Murphy and Morgan Freeman.

'The Dark Knight Rises' is released tomorrow on Friday.

One Direction boys splurge on brand new cars for their ladies


Louis Tomlinson and Liam Payne

One Direction's Louis Tomlinson and Liam Payne have both purchased new cars for their girlfriends.

Manchester University politics student Eleanor Calder, who is dating Louis, received a Mini One D from him for her 20th birthday.

Liam gave his partner, professional dancer Danielle Peazer, an Audi TT vehicle.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "The lads have plenty of dosh and are very generous with it. They love their girlfriends to bits, so they surprised them with new motors.

"The girls are obviously delighted. They were never expecting such lavish gifts."

Already with a Porsche in his collection, Louis has just spent £90,000 on a Range Rover.

He additionally spent money on Eleanor's birthday cake, which he ordered from The Cake Store in Sydenham, south London.

He went for a personalised Magic Kingdom design because they had such a good time on holiday in Disneyland last month. As well as her Mini, he also gave her a novelty present - a personalised Yorkshire Tea mug and teabags.

Liam recently took his partner Danielle away for a romantic weekend to Venice, Italy.


'Bridemaid's' star Rose Byrne isn't driven enough to be a lawyer

Rose Byrne

The actress plays attorney Ellen in TV series 'Damages' but says she could never be a legal eagle in real life as she doesn't have the right personality.

She said: "I'm fascinated by lawyers. My late uncle was a QC, an incredibly successful barrister in Australia. The hours that peopled like Ellen and my uncle work are incredible. It takes a certain type of personality to do that.

"Lawyers are incredibly driven and you need some kind of extra engine that keeps you going. I don't have that."

'Damages' will end after this series and Rose admits it's a "bittersweet" situation because although she's sad to see it go, she knows it's the right decision.

The 32-year-old beauty told the Metro newspaper: "It's bittersweet. The writers worked until they were black and blue to get the show to where they want it and they need a break. It's a good time to leave - on a high - rather than dragging it out."

Tom Cruise takes Suri on a helicopter ride over Manhattan

Tom Cruise takes Suri on an  NYC outing
The doting father and his six-year-old daughter enjoyed a trip in the Liberty chopper for a sightseeing tour of New York City on Wednesday.

Suri excitedly looked out of the window to see the panoramic views of the city and the pair seemed to enjoy having some quality father and daughter time.

A source said: "They didn't look stressed."

Tom flew to The Big Apple on Tuesday to see Suri for the first time since he and Katie Holmes, 33, split in June ending their five-year marriage.

The 50-year-old actor wrapped shooting on his latest film 'Oblivion' in California on Sunday (15.07.12) and he made sure he was in New York to see his child the first opportunity he got.

Katie and Tom agreed a divorce settlement on July 7, with the actress getting primary custody of Suri.
The 'Rock of Ages' star has extensive visitation rights but he agreed that Suri should live full-time with her mother in New York because it would be the best thing for her.

His long-time friend and lawyer Bert Fields said: "Tom tried his best to do what's right for Suri."

One Directions hit covered by dogs in hilarious 'Pup Direction' parody – VIDEO

One Direction hit covered by barking dogs
One Direction may have some serious competition on their hands. If there is one thing screaming teenage girls love more than the British boy band, puppies could be it.

A new dog band named Pup Direction has covered One Direction's hit single "One Thing" with their own version “One Bark”.

Just like the stylish band, the five dogs are each decked out with fashionable neck attire as they recreate the stairwell scene from the original music video. The animal loving team behind the viral hit is the Pet Collective.

“It’s been tough trying to get five dogs to co-operate at any given time,” said director Hail Lam Phan.

How did they do it?

“Treats -- lots and lots of good treats,” the director revealed.

Watch the clip Pup Direction - One Bark (Petody) below:

George Clooney and Channing Tatum - Hollywood’s newest bromance?

 Channing Tatum and George Clooney 

Move over, Brad! Channing Tatum and his wife were recently spotted strolling around George Clooney’s Italian playground with Clooney’s beau Stacy Keibler. Has George got a new bromance brewing?

The Examiner reports that Channing Tatum, star of the recently released ‘Magic Mike,’ and wife Jenna Dewan have  been recently photographed on George Clooney’s boat and heading out to dinner with Clooney and Stacy Keibler. However, the couple’s Italian foray seems to be the stuff of gal pal goodness instead of bromance.

A source said to E! News that Jenna Dewan and Stacy Keibler have “been friends for a long time. Jenna and Stacy are very good friends." The two even celebrated this past Cinco de Mayo together with margaritas, and sat together front-row at Fashion Week.

Channing Tatum and  wife Jenna Dewan, who are celebrating their third wedding anniversary, are reportedly vacationing in Italy for the time being and staying with Keibler and Clooney. They have double dated for dinner and have taken Clooney’s boat out, which has played host to many of Hollywood’s A-Listers.

Sinead O’Connor says petty crime could have been her career

Sinead O'Connor
Sinead O’Connor could have been wearing pinstripes if it wasn’t for her music career, she says.

In an interview broadcast last Sunday on the BBC, O’Connor said that she didn’t have talent to pursue any other vocation.  "There were a lot of good things about [early fame] – I was going to make a living being a singer, which was great, because I couldn't do anything else and I was headed down a sort of, pretty criminal path and if I hadn't got rescued by music, I probably could have ended up in trouble,” she said.

She’s certainly caused a lot of that during her career, now in its fourth decade – the biggest trouble coming after she shredded a picture of the Pope on Saturday Night Live in 1992.  She was asked what she remembered about that time, and all she could come up with was an incident that happened when she left the show’s studios when a “bunch of fellas” threw eggs at her and her childhood friend.

Sinead and the pal were star sprinters at school, she said, and they ran after the guys. “We made them apologize, then we got in a cab and went home,” she added.

She still has the white lace dress she wore onstage that night. In fact it used to belong to British
songstress Sade, and Sinead bought it at an auction.

“She may not know this, but when I came to England in 1985 I went to a rock 'n' roll auction and I bought a dress for £800 that used to belong to Sade. It was one of Sade's favorites, one of her famous white dresses and I was wearing it on Saturday Night Live and now my daughter wears it and she's going to wear it as her wedding dress,” Sinead said.

“So I've said to my daughter, 'This is a dress for women to cause trouble in.’ Of course, Sade is a lady and behaves herself at all times."

Tom Cruise will not hide his Scientology beliefs from daughter Suri

Tom Cruise and daughter Suri

The 'Rock of Ages' actor - who is a huge follower of the sci-fi religion - will not be afraid to discuss the religion with the six-year-old girl, despite estranged wife Katie Holmes reportedly wanting the youngster to have nothing to do with it.

A source said: "Tom is not ashamed of his beliefs and won't hide them from his daughter."

Tom - who also has children Isabella, 19, and 17-year-old Connor, with second wife Nicole Kidman - was reunited with Suri yesterday on Tuesday in New York after not seeing her for over a month because he was working on new movie 'Oblivion' and insiders say he was desperate to see his little girl.

One said: "He's wanted to see her as fast as possible since this started. He couldn't shut down production, cost people their jobs. People count on him."

Katie filed for divorce last month after five years of marriage and the former couple settled their divorce agreement last week, with the actress having primary custody of Suri.

Tom will have extensive visitation rights and thought it was best for Suri she lived full-time with her mother in New York.

His longtime friend and lawyer Bert Fields said: "Tom tried his best to do what's right for Suri."

It has been claimed Katie, 33, has enrolled Suri into a Catholic school as she didn't want her to have the Scientology upbringing Tom's other children had.
