Beckham marriage problems?

Beckhams David and Victoria Beckham's nine-year marriage is under pressure, according to friends.

David and Victoria Beckham's marriage is under pressure, according to friends.

The celebrity couple - who moved to America last year after David signed a multi-million pound deal with soccer team Los Angeles Galaxy - are said to be spending increasing amounts of time apart as they pursue their own interests.

David, 33, is reportedly desperate to return to European soccer, while Victoria, 34, is determined to increase her profile by staying in the US.

A source told Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "David has to move back to Europe if he wants to continue to play international football. Victoria still believes they can make it big in America, but she fears a move back to Europe could kill off their Hollywood future for ever."

It has been claimed David's proposed loan deal with a Spanish or Italian team this winter could be "the straw which break's the camel's back".

The new claims come shortly after David - who has been married to the former Spice Girl for nine years - admitted he and Victoria find it tough being under constant scrutiny.

He said: "We have quite a lot of pressure, honestly, as a couple. But we've had that since we first started going out, so we've got used to it over the years. We have a way of working through it by looking out for each other."

However, their three sons - Brooklyn, nine, Romeo, six and three-year-old Cruz - help put their troubles in perspective.

David added: "Having children around takes all the pressure away. Either of us could have had the worst day at work, but it doesn't matter because then you come home and see your sons smiling."

Beyonce Knowles' pricey band

Beyonce Jay-Z splashed out £2.5million on Beyonce Knowles' wedding ring, diamond experts believe.

Jay-Z splashed out £2.5million on Beyonce Knowles' wedding ring.

Although the couple married in a secret ceremony in April, the 'Bootylicious' singer had so far refused to show off the band until she was seen on a Miami beach with younger sister Solange last weekend.

The eye-catching piece is believed to be from celebrity jewellers Schwartz, a long-term favourite of the star.

Mohammed Cimark, who runs Precious Gems and Jewels in London, confirmed the huge octagon-cut diamond was a rarity.

He said: "If it is 18 carats then it's a lovely size, an exceptional diamond. It's clearly a premium stone.

"You can't recognise the colour from the photo and the clarity is hard to see, but the best clarity is internally flawless."

The jeweller said he believed the stone had been sourced from Africa.

He added to the MailOnline website: "Most diamonds this size you would get in South Africa or Sierra Leone. That's where you get the biggest diamonds."

The £2.5 million price tag is not likely to have troubled the rapper.

Jay-Z - real name Shawn Carter - reportedly earned £41 million last year from his live performances and album sales, as well as his many other ventures, including a hotel and clothing range.

George Takei marries

Takei 'Star Trek' actor George Takei and Brad Altman, his partner of 21 years, married in a Buddhist ceremony in Los Angeles last night (14.09.08).

'Star Trek' actor George Takei and partner Brad Altman married in a Buddhist ceremony last night (14.09.08).

The couple - who have been dating for 21 years - tied the knot in front of 200 friends and family in Los Angeles.

George, best known for his role as Mr. Sulu in the original 'Star Trek' TV series and movies, made reference to the show's catchphrase "Live long and prosper" when he declared, "May equality live long and prosper!" after the ceremony.

He told People magazine after the nuptials at the Japanese American National Museum: "All I can remember is what the priest said, that, 'This moment will never happen again'. It's something to savour."

George, 71, and Brad, 54, exchanged turquoise wedding bands during the ceremony.

After announcing their engagement in May, George said: "We've shared the good times as well as struggled through the bad. He is my love and I can't imagine life without him. Now we can have the dignity, as well as all the responsibilities, of marriage. We embrace it all heartily."

The newlywed couple are planning to honeymoon in Argentina and Peru.

Bob Geldof's Peaches rage

Peaches Bob Geldof is "incandescent with rage" over his daughter Peaches' shock marriage to rocker Max Drumney.

Bob Geldof is "incandescent with rage" over his daughter's shock marriage.

It was revealed on Tuesday (12.08.08) that 19-year-old Peaches had married rocker Max Drumney last week, and former Boomtown Rats singer Bob is set for a showdown with his daughter over the news.

He is currently on holiday in Majorca, Spain, but will demand an explanation from his daughter - who flew back to London alone yesterday (13.08.08) - when he returns next week.

A source said: "Bob wants answers about what has been going on. Max is keen to meet him and explain he only has his daughter's future at heart. But he has a tough job on his hands.

"Peaches is expecting fireworks, although she knows her dad will respect her wishes."

Bob was not told about Peaches' plans to wed the 23-year-old Chester French drummer until two hours before the ceremony and, in an emotional phone call, was said to have yelled at her, "What have you done? You hardly know the boy."

According to another insider, he is now refusing to speak to Peaches until his holiday return.

The source said: "Bob can't get over the fact she did this on a whim.

"Right now he doesn't want to see her. But he's incandescent with rage and she is in for a huge talking to when they finally meet up."

Meanwhile, it has been reported that Peaches - who collapsed last month following a rumoured drugs overdose - married Max to take her away from the London drug scene she and boyfriend Faris Badwan were involved in.

A friend revealed to Britain's The Sun newspaper: "Peaches was ashamed of the overdose and worried she'd end up like Amy Winehouse. She and Faris had started regularly using drugs and she realised it was becoming a problem.

"So when she met Max again, who is a nice boy and a Harvard graduate, she thought being alongside him would steer her life on a different path. He was the nicest boy she could find quickly enough and was the key to her escaping the drugs.

"Only Peaches would go so far as to think a wedding would be the best way to go about this though."

Peaches Geldof marries

Peaches Peaches Geldof, the daughter of Bob Geldof, has married US rocker Max Drummey in a shock Las Vegas ceremony.

Peaches Geldof has got married.

The 19-year-old DJ - the daughter of Bob Geldof - wed Max Drummey of US indie band Chester French in a shock Las Vegas ceremony at the Little White Wedding Chapel on August 5 after a whirlwind romance lasting only a month.

Critics have already suggested the nuptials are nothing more than a publicity stunt to promote Chester French's new album, which is due out next month.

Peaches and Max released a statement yesterday (12.08.08) saying: "The couple tied the knot in a simple low-key ceremony in Las Vegas last week whilst holidaying in America.

"Peaches and Max are delighted to announce their very happy marriage.

"Max's band, Chester French, played at the ITV iTunes festival in June, where Peaches was a co-presenter of the show.

"The acclaimed new Boston band were signed by Pharrell Williams to his label Star Track, a subsidiary of the giant Interscope Label."

Just last month, Peaches publicly declared her love for her boyfriend of the time, Horrors frontman Faris Badwan, and even hinted the pair were considering getting married.

A friend of Faris' said: "I spoke to him at the weekend and, as far as he was concerned they were still together. Now, he doesn't know what's going on."

Although none of the couple's friends and family attended the service, Peaches informed her father Bob - who married Peaches' mother Paula Yates in Las Vegas in 1986 - she was getting married shortly before the ceremony.

Last night (12.08.08) Bob would only say: "I am aware of the statement that has been released and agree with its sentiments."

Reverend Stephen Fabretti, who conducted the nuptials, said: "They looked very happy together. I remember the bride looked very young and pale and quite angelic."

He added he thought it was "strange" that Max chose to wear sunglasses throughout the ceremony.

Peaches is not the first star to marry in the Little White Wedding Chapel.

Britney Spears wed her school friend Jason Alexander there only for the marriage to be annulled days later, while Demi Moore and Bruce Willis also tied the knot at the chapel.

Javier Bardem's Penelope proposal

Penelope_cruz_2 Javier Bardem is set to propose to Penelope Cruz when the couple go on holiday next month.

Javier Bardem is set to propose to Penelope Cruz.

The Oscar-winning actor - who began dating Penelope when they worked together on Woody Allen movie 'Vicky Christina Barcelona' - is planning to pop the question during the couple's holiday next month.

A source close to the couple told Britain's Daily Mail newspaper: "Both Penelope and Javier are very excited about their future together. It has been rumoured that Javier has already proposed - but he hasn't asked Penelope to marry him yet."

'Volver' star Penelope, 34, is reportedly planning to move to England with 39-year-old Javier in September to work on her next film 'Nine'.

Earlier this year, Penelope claimed she wasn't interested in marriage because she didn't see its relevance in modern society.

She said: "I don't know if I believe in marriage. I believe in family, in love, in children. It depends on the situation, but nowadays I am not sure what marriage is for."

Although Penelope and Javier have only been together for a short time, they have known each other for 16 years.

They first met on the set of Spanish film 'Jamon, jamon' in 1992.

Penelope has previously been romantically linked to famous actors including Matthew McConaughey and Tom Cruise.

P. Diddy engaged?

P_diddy P. Diddy has reportedly proposed to his girlfriend, singer Cassandra 'Cassie' Ventura, but is attempting to keep the engagement quiet.

P. Diddy has reportedly proposed to his girlfriend, singer Cassandra 'Cassie' Ventura.

The rapper is said to be engaged to 21-year-old Cassie, who he met when he signed her up to his music label Bad Boy Records in 2006, but is attempting to keep the news quiet.

A source close to the father-of-six told America's Star magazine: "He told everyone to keep it extremely quiet because he didn't want it to get out, but you could tell he was excited.

"P. Diddy said they hadn't set a date yet, but he wanted his family to hear the news first."

P. Diddy has 19-month-old twin daughters D'Lila and Jessie and 10-year-old son Christian with ex-girlfriend Kim Porter.

He also has a son from a previous relationship, a daughter with ex-girlfriend Sarah Chapman and a child he unofficially adopted after ex-girlfriend Kim Porter had a son with her former boyfriend Al B Sure.

The 38-year-old star - who has dated Jennifer Lopez and was recently romantically linked to Cameron Diaz - recently revealed he is desperate to work with British singer Leona Lewis.

He said: "I want that girl on my next album. I'm a huge fan. Not only is she so, so beautiful, she has a great voice. She is extremely talented. She has one of the best voices I've heard. I'm thinking about my next album and definitely want to make it work, so she's on it. It's all about Leona Lewis."

Trinny's marriage... probably fine

Trinny Two arguments here. One says: if there's nothing wrong with your marriage, why make a big deal about it? The other says: it's you who's making a big deal - all she's doing is wearing a wedding ring. SHE IS MARRIED AFTER ALL. There might be a third which says something like "GRURRRR I READ RUBBISH NEWSPAPERS, ug". Rumours began when she turned up at a premiere without her hubby or ring. Well, maybe it just didn't go with the outfit? Probably made her knuckles look fat or something. Back on now though, pheweeeeeee. I have literally never been more relieved about anything, in my entire life.

Drew Barrymore to wed 'Mac guy'?

Drewb It's all so sudden. It seems just moments since Drew was a gurgling toddler calling ET "the man from the moon", and the Apple Macintosh was far from a design classic. Now we have the "I'm A Mac" guy (the American one, he's called Justin Long) talking weddings with the ET kid. The pair were overheard at Hugo’s eatery in a West Hollywood when fellow patron Jose Sandoval earwigged them. “The tables are close together, so it’s kind of hard not to overhear things,” Jose told In Touch Weekly. What ever you say, mate. “(Drew) said she wanted to find a wedding planner and (Justin) said they should look at engagement rings that day. But Drew said, ‘You know what I like, surprise me.’” No way, Jose.

Pamela Anderson claims third marriage "never happened"

PamelaandersonPoor Pamela Anderson is clearly losing her marbles. Maybe her brain cells fried under all the California sun. Maybe it’s the effect of years of wild living or maybe because she's little more than a blow-up sex doll, but the poor love has been demonstrating a terrifying loss of memory. So, what has the buxom Baywatch babe conveniently forgotten? Her short-lived marriage to Rick Salomon last year. Though claiming you've forgotten something that you're taling about kinda defeats the point, surely?

 

The couple managed a whopping two months of marriage last year before an annullment was granted after both sides cited 'fraud', and now Pammy has been opening up on the doomed romance. Talking on chat show Larry King Live, this was her revealing insight into this, her third failed marriage: "Oh jeez… It never happened… It was an - well, it was an annulment so… It never happened."

 

Let's hope she's also scratched Barb Wire from her memory as well. God knows, I wish I could.

Amy Winehouse plans to divorce her Blake

021winehouse1dm_228x600_2She might be married, with her grotty hubby Blake Fielder-what's-his-face currently avoiding dropping the soap in his prison showers, but that hasn't stopped Amy Winehouse bagging herself a new fella. This new lucky chap, 24-year-old Alex Haynes, is her manager's assistant and has been described as a "clean-cut mummy's boy", just like Blake then, eh? This month-long romance has blossomed despite Alex not smoking or drinking, and now the Wino is working out how best to tell her imprisoned husband that she wants a divorce. Good luck with that one.

 

A fortnight ago, Amy is said to have consulted with financial gurus on how best to hold on to her £10 fortune and though she has told Blake that the love has gone, she is stalling on divorce talks. A source close to the sizzled star told the Sun: “Amy doesn’t want the truth coming out because she doesn’t want him reading things that will upset him in case he tries to do anything silly in jail. She does care about him still and has been trying to be seen to support him through his jail ordeal — but she just doesn’t want to be with him any more.”

So, why has Amy turned to Alex and what about all those icky public demonstrations of love for Blake? The source explains: “She has been fed up for ages and saying she wants to call it a day. All Blake does is scream and shout at her on the phone from prison and curse at her and his family blame her and criticise her. The pressure has been building and building and while she was away working with Mark Ronson she had time to think about everything."

"The trial is coming up and as it gets nearer and nearer the thought that he could come out has been on her mind — and it’s not what she wants any more. Even the thought of having to go to court and publicly support him and see his family has been too much for her and has been doing her head in. She has been turning up late and missing visits so she decided to just be straight with him."

“He burst into tears and was begging her. But once Amy has made up her mind, that’s it. While he has been inside she has not been faithful to him and got herself in a position where he couldn’t come back anyway because too much has gone on while he has been inside. She is filing for separation and making it official and has been celebrating ever since.”

Fingers crossed that away from Blake's influence, Amy can learn from her "mummy's boy" and rid herself of the drink and drugs, but after proclaiming undying love for one man only to replace him shortly after, how long can we give this new romance? And could Blake rival Heather Mills as the ultimate money-grabbing ex?

Is Katie Holmes separating from Tom Cruise?

Tomcruisekatieholmessplpi61_2_2Could there be trouble in paradise for TomKat? The American gossip press certainly seems to think so with both In Touch Weekly (pictured right), Star magazine and our very own Now magazine reporting that the Tom Cruise/ Katie Holmes romance is on the rocks, with a break imminent. Could we be about to witness another power couple split?

The gossip centres on Katie's frustrations at Tom's controlling behaviour, which is said to keep the young actress under surveillance at all times. Speaking to Now, a chum of Katie's revealed: “Because of his [Tom's] high profile, his children and his Scientology connections, Tom believes his family is vulnerable to potential kidnappers, stalkers and crazed fans. Katie will barely be able to move around her own home without being monitored by cameras and electrical devices. At home she would often go to a bedroom of her own and spend hours there with Suri.”

Cry it out honey, we've all hidden in the toilets when we've felt a case of the waterworks coming on, and it seems pretty understandable when made to feel like uncomfortable and spied on in your own home with your spending habits and phone calls strictly monitored. The source close to the Batman Begins star adds: “Now she says she’ll feel as though there is no escape from Tom’s controlling ways. You can escape the eyes of another person by going to a different part of the house. But [Katie] knows she can’t escape the roving eyes of the cameras that are constantly sweeping the house.”

It sounds more like a prison than a marriage, with talk suggesting that Katie plans to accept a role on Broadway just to escape the $1.3 million security system of Tom's fortress and live it up in the Big Apple. She is understood to be in final negotiations for a part in All My Sons and is hoping that a move to Manhattan could result in a trial separation, though unsurprisingly Tom has other ideas.

“She desperately needs to be on her own for a while, but there’s no way Tom is going to let her take Suri away,” another anonymous source told Star magazine. “There’s no way he’ll allow it. He just doesn’t want Katie — or Suri — out of his sight for long. He told her that if she goes to New York, fine, but he goes with her.” That kinda defeats the point of a separation Tom, jeez after two divorces already, I’d have thought you’d have gotten the hang of the break-up bit.

Of course, others are dismissing these reports, confirming that the pair is currently apart due to work commitments but are still very much in love, can't get enough of each other, blah, blah, blah.

Without wanting to endorse divorce or be flippant about the pain caused to all involved when a relationship breaks down, this union has always smelt a bit off. Whether it's been the Scientology brainwashing, the transformation of Katie Holmes from perky, pretty young thing into a scrawny Stepford wife or the icky way they desperately cram their love down your throats, it's never rung true. More like a show of love, rather than the real thing.

And if they were to split, it could be the best thing to happen to Katie's career. Just look at Nicole Kidman.

Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson deny pregnancy rumours

1436377014363772large_2Is a shot-gun wedding? That's what everyone (and by everyone, I mean me and a few other online nosey cows) is asking. Last week Fall Out Boy bassist and his pop puppet Ashlee Simpson declared their engagement. So what? Get in line folks as it seems that every celeb worth their entrance to Bungalow 8 has been getting in on the marriage lark, but now rumours of a possible pregnancy have made this couple's impending nuptials that little bit juicier.

OK! magazine and Us Weekly have both recently claimed that Jess' little sis has got a bun in the oven, but either they've got it all wrong or Pete isn't quite ready to tell Ashlee's notoriously overprotective pa Joe.

"There is a witch hunt for people to be pregnant whenever they get engaged in Hollywood," wrote Pete in an email to MTV News (how completely not rock and roll of him). "This is all news to me. I can't wait for the story about how I'm really in a gay relationship and this is all just a cover. ... I mean really, this is crazy. ... I mean we're engaged, that's true, and happy about it."

Mmm – what do we think Star Trippers? Are we being too cynical in thinking that there must be an ulterior motive here or do we suspect that Pete is plucking up the courage to go tell Ashlee's dad "he might want to sit down" any moment now?

Will Ashley win Cheryl's forgiveness with romantic holiday?

2701_cole_02When your husband is continually referred to by the media as a 'love rat' then things aren't looking too rosy in your marriage. Just look at Ashley Cole and his missus Cheryl. After the well-publicised allegations of his infidelity, the couple is back living together in a show of togetherness and unity, but behind closed doors things are very far from happy according to new gossip.

Girls Aloud singer Cheryl might have moved back into the couple's marital nest, but insiders say the couple barely talks, while she insists they sleep in separate rooms with no nooky. Chelsea footballer Ashley, being a randy so-and-so, is far from keen on this and is planning a luxurious holiday to the Bahamas in June to help rekindle the dying romance.

A friend of the estranged couple revealed to The Sun: “Ashley has been miserable these past few months and Cheryl’s really made him pay for what he did. He thinks the holiday will be the final gesture that will make things go back to the way they were before he was caught out. He even hopes the sex ban will end while they’re away.”

Who thinks this source might be a pal of Ashley's? He certainly seems to think that the sports star has been punished enough for his cheating and that a few soft words and flashy pressies are enough to gloss over the cracks of deception and infidelity. In contrast, a friend of Cheryl's explained how the pop star is coping.

“Cheryl accepted Ashley back because she loves him. But she’s finding it hard to put his cheating behind her," explains the source. “Although they are both living in the same house, they are still not really behaving like man and wife and sleep in different rooms. Ashley still has a lot of work to do."

On whether the left-back lothario can work his magic with a little getaway, the friend confided: “She could refuse the holiday offers all together. He has a long way to go before he wins back the place he used to have in her heart – and her bed.”

And so he should. Since when was a few days in the sun a remedy for broken trust?

Girls Aloud's Sarah Harding ready to say "I do"

3e8cc4d4f3a4f2974cedbc8ee5a64fa9There must be something in the air, as another showbiz wedding is on the horizon. This one is a little closer to home than the recent nuptials of Jay-Z and Beyoncé and the hush-hush plans of Nicole Richie and Joel Madden, and promises to be a more raucous, drunken knees-up. So who is heading down the aisle now?

It's Girls Aloud party-girl Sarah Harding and her DJ fella Tom Crane. The blonde pop star has created quite a wild reputation for herself, but is set to settle down after Crane proposed with a horse. Yes, you read correctly. A horse. What, he couldn't get down the off-license for a box of chocs and cheap plonk?

Sarah learned how to play polo for the ITV2 reality show The Passions of… Girls Aloud (though according to this show, they're only a quartet, as Nadine clearly had better things to do off in L.A.), through which she developed a love for horses. Quick to exploit this, Crane gifted Harding with the horse as part of his proposal.

"Anyone can buy a diamond ring but what Sarah loves about Tom is that he is so original," quipped a friend of the pair to the Daily Star. "He spent ages trying to find the perfect animal for Sarah to play polo on and he settled on a 16-hands, bay-coloured beauty called Spirit. "He introduced them last week and asked Sarah if she would consider marrying him. She was bowled over and said 'Yes' straight away."

The cynical side of Star Trip wants to think she only said yes to the gift of the horse, but let's wish them both well on this rocky road to love and hope that Sarah doesn't listen to any of Cheryl's marriage advice.

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden to marry this summer

NijoelEveryone loves a celebrity wedding. We've just had the starry nuptials of Beyoncé and Jay-Z, and now it looks like new parents Nicole Richie and Joel Madden are making plans to skip down the aisle. Of course, a depressing percentage of these unions end in bitter public battles over everything from custody of the children to who gets the coffee maker, but ignoring the threat of divorce, let's learn of this upcoming OK! magazine cover story.

A source close to the pair has unconvincingly claimed that they "can’t give too much away" about the Richie/ Madden wedding, before adding that "I can say that it will be this summer." The insider went on to maintain absolute secrecy by revealing that the invitations are being sent out soon and that everything is more or less confirmed excepting the outfits.

Nicole will have eight bridesmaids and the whole shindig will be sweated over by a top celebrity party planner. New York bakery Alice's Tea Cup is prepped to provide the cake, though tastings are still determining what culinary creation guests will gorge on.

What are the chances that dad Lionel will knock out cheese-fest song 'Three Times a Lady' in tribute to daughter Nicole at some point during the day?

All Saints reunite again, Cameron Diaz's new bloke & more

All_saints_2Last week came news of the New Kids on the Block comeback, and now prepare yourselves Star Trippers as more pop strumpets past their sell-by dates fancy another stab at stardom. Sadly, 90s girl band All Saints have already squandered any good will towards them with their lame reunion in 2006, which after producing one hit song and a flop album, saw them being dropped by record label Parlophone. However, those optimistic types at the All Around The World label clearly think they're good for another shot and so are helping the quartet plan a new assault on our eardrums before the end of the year. It's not news to beat that Monday morning gloom, is it? [via The Sun]

Click over to find out which A-list couple said "I do" over the weekend, who Cameron Diaz is dating and who has gone from brunette to blonde.

After they acquired a NY marriage license last week, gossip was rife that rapper/ producer/ media mogul Jay-Z was gonna make things official with his long-term girlfriend Beyoncé. Now, news has leaked that the couple did wed on Saturday after Jay-Z's current touring partner Mary J. Blige congratulated the couple during a North Carolina gig. "Congratulations to my man, Jay-Z, and my girl B!" said Mary, and may Star Trip also add our best wishes to the happy couple. [via Us Magazine]

Lily Allen has ditched her brunette locks in favour of something a little lighter. The star was spotted with a new blonde do this weekend. Anything to distract from how crap that chat show is. [via Heatworld]

After cooing that "she loves boys", Cameron Diaz has gone and bagged herself some serious beefcake in the form of Scottish actor Gerard Butler. The pair has been seen on a few dates, which in showbiz terms means they're either just polite acquaintances or banging each other's brains out. You decide which story you prefer.

Beyoncé and Jay-Z acquire marriage license

285_beyonce_jayz_120806They've teased us on many occasions with their will-they, won't-they shenanigans, but now it really does like look Jay-Z will be making an honest woman of Beyoncé Knowles soon. The loved-up pair has been dating for six years and now People.com is reporting that they have taken out a marriage license in Scarsdale, New York. Does this mean we can expect to see the Independent Woman settle down with her fella?

Beyoncé's rep has issued the standard "no comment" statement, while Jay-Z's spokesperson has similarly kept schtum. The document was obtained on Tuesday morning and is valid for 60 days, which means either 1: they're planning a small, low-key wedding (are such things allowed in hip-hop?) 2: they've already organised it and have simply been customarily tight-lipped or 3: it's a big ruse.

Gossip flew about late last year that they had been and gone and done it, but that was found to be nonsense. Is this just more of the same?

Wayne Rooney and Coleen McLoughlin set to wed this Summer

0920_a34_2Coleen McLoughlin has blagged a media career simply through being the squeeze of footballer Wayne Rooney, but things are set to become official this summer as the couple splash out on a lavish wedding. The loved up pair of chavs are heading to the South of France for a June wedding which is set to last four days. Four days – do they really need that long to say "I do"?

So what do we know about this shindig? That the 60 guests, including Wayne's footie chums and boxer Ricky Hatton, will be flown over to the Côte D’Azur by private jets on June 10th. Leading up to the wedding, which is believed to be set for the 12th, there will be a black and white ball with events afterwards including a champagne lunch and a BBQ.

A friend of the couple explained the choices: "Coleen wanted to spread the event over a few days because people are travelling so far. You can virtually guarantee the weather at that time of the year so they’ve gone for lots of outdoor celebrations. Coleen and Wayne take regular holidays in the area, so they’re very familiar with the place.” Oh lucky them.

For those that care about fashion, Coleen will wear a £100,000 gown as designed by Marchesa, though I'm sure she'll spruce it up with a few George at Asda accessories. Of course, we'll all get the chance to see the gown, the guests and all the drunken rowdiness (come on – they are footballers) as the pair has confirmed a deal with a glossy magazine. Said mag (probably Hello! or OK!) will stump up £2.5million for the honour, with a chunk of this to be donated to a Liverpool charity. I should hope so too – I don't think they're exactly strapped for cash.

Is Madonna and Guy Ritchie's marriage on the rocks?

9908879madonnaThere has been much speculation of late concerning the Ritchie's seven-year marriage. Madonna and Guy haven't been spotted together since January. He didn't accompany her to any of her recent big events, including her induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and to reciprocate she didn’t mention him during her acceptance speech. His father John has revealed to Closer magazine that concerns over the couple's future might be warranted.

"They're not spending any time together," says John Ritchie. "Madonna is busy in America with the children, and Guy wants to stay in the UK. They won't be spending Easter together either. Guy will be over here all year as he's working on a script. I don't know if there are serious problems in the marriage. I truly hope not." As do we. Clearly not comfortable with such gossip, Madonna has had her long-time publicist Liz Rosenberg come out fighting in defence of the couple.

"The Material Girl" (can't she call her Madonna?) "toured the US to promote her upcoming album Hard Candy, while the director was in England putting the finishing touches on his new film RocknRolla, filming a Nike commercial and working on several scripts," adding that the pair are "joyfully back together at home in London. All is well and wonderful in the Ritchie household."

Anyone else smell a rat?

Brad Pitt "despised" wife Jennifer Aniston after six weeks of marriage

Pitt_aniston_wideweb__430x285For years Angelina Jolie has been blamed for the break-up of Hollywood's former golden couple Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston (not by me Angie!), but new details reveal that all was not well within the marriage well before Brangelina was spawned. Comedian Omid Djalli co-starred with Pitt in the 2000 film Spy Game and has suggested that Brad "despised" Jen after only six short weeks of marriage.

Talking to the Daily Express, Djalli confirmed: "I did a scene with Brad in the back of a taxi and it was only a few days after he had married Jennifer. I chatted to him for hours giving him advice about the three stages of marriage. Stage one is perfection - blind love. Stage two is the difficult stage because you start to despise everything about her. If you can deal with the baggage you can possibly get to stage three - a harmonious marriage."

"After six weeks Brad came up to me", continues the comic "and said, 'I'm definitely in stage two, Omid!' I probably made it go up in flames!"

Of course, this is only one tiny glimpse into the A-lister's romance and subsequent 2005 divorce, but since everyone involved has been so tight-lipped, this nugget of gossip seems pretty juicy. So, what have we learned? That the marriage was doomed from the start. That Jennifer Aniston gets on your tits after no time at all, and that if you want some privacy on intimate matters – don't talk to Omid Djalli.

Sienna Miller and Rhys Ifans to marry

O207siennarhysSorry ladies, it looks like that sexy beast Rhys Ifans is soon to be off the market. "Dear God – say it's not so", I hear you cry, but I am sorry to report that the grungy Welsh actor is now engaged to Sienna Miller. The boho (euphemism for dirty and unwashed) couple has been dating for a year, during which time Notting Hill star Ifans has proposed to Miller on three occasions, and now on his lucky third attempt, Jude Law's ex has said yes.

A source close to the couple (though, let's hope not too close, as they probably smell of joss sticks) has revealed: "Rhys has admitted he and Sienna are getting married. Everything is supposed to be hush-hush, but Rhys is over the moon and finding it hard to keep quiet... he can't believe she finally said yes." Me either – just look at the scruff of a man. How is possible to go from Jude Law to that? Anyway, as long as they're happy.

"Although Si and Rhys have a lot of famous friends, they will keep it low-key," added the chum. "They won't be signing up to some magazine deal." These famous friends include the likes of Keira Knightley, Kate Moss and Noel Gallagher. Of course they won't want a magazine deal – how can they all get trashed with an OK! magazine photographer in their faces?

Cheryl demands husband Ashley publicly apologise for cheating

Cheryl_ash_26nov07_big_350It's the love saga that won't end. Will Cheryl forgive husband Ashley his philandering ways or will she boot him out and end their marriage? For weeks this showbiz story has rumbled on, taking in trips to LA for Cheryl as she holidayed with her Girls Aloud band members, consulting them on their views (one piece of advice Cheryl - don't listen to Nadine. She obviously has no standards when it comes to men, after all she did date Jesse Metcalfe.) Sometimes we hear that they're on the mend, at others it appears to be all over. Does anyone know what's going on?

Well, according to the Sunday People, Cheryl is considering reconciling with Chelsea left-back Ashley, on the condition that he publicly apologise to her and admit his wrong-doing. Sound about as likely as Amy Winehouse washing her hair? You betcha. Ashley is far from keen, despite the importance that Cheryl has placed on the gesture.

A source close to the England player reveals: "He doesn't want to do it. He still insists it wasn't his fault. He claims he can't remember because he was too drunk." Cheryl, though sees it as the only way forward: "She feels like a fool. She feels betrayed and hurt. Now she needs him to take the blame for what he has done."

With fool-proof logic and unarguable common sense on his side, after all he was "too drunk" to know that he had his penis inside a woman other than his wife, surely Cheryl should forgive Ashley's dalliance?

Brad and Angie plan spring wedding

293_jolie_pitt_060607It could be the most glamourous showbiz shindig EVER, or it could be some random weird ritual that involves taking off all your clothes off and dancing to Boney M (you never know in the wacky world of celebdom) but the news is that Brad and Angie are getting married. The A-list actors known as Brangelina are reported to be planning a small, intimate ceremony for later in the spring, with a source close to the couple opening up to the Sunday People. "They have talked about marrying for a while", reveals the insider.

"They have been together three years and sorting things out with Brad's mum is the icing on the cake." Brad's mum Jane was very much rooted in camp Aniston, having become close friends with his ex, but now she has welcomed Angie into the Pitt clan and is keen to help the pair make things official. The ceremony is believed to take place in Santa Monica and would be a touching moment for Hollywood's most stylish parents.

Pink splits from husband Carey Hart

Carey_hart_05After months of speculation, pop star Pink has confirmed that her marriage is over. The Stupid Girls singer married motocross racer Carey Hart in January 2006, but the relationship has been dogged by rumours of Hart's infidelity. Pink's rep confirmed to People magazine: "Pink and Carey Hart have separated. This decision was made by best friends with a huge amount of love and respect for one another. While the marriage is over, their friendship has never been stronger."

So what was responsible for the split? Was it Hart's alleged wandering eye? The unofficial line is that work commitments kept the couple apart (that old chestnut), with Pink in the studio working on new music while Hart is busy opening nightclubs. Really people, when you have so much money and control over your careers (there's no 9 to 5 clocking in with these slebs), why let work dominate your lives and sabotage your relationships?

Liam Gallagher weds Nicole Appleton

Ed_imgrsnf30biza_203759aLiam Gallagher and long-time love Nicole Appleton have made it official and gotten hitched. The 90's stars said "I do" at London's Westminster Registry office – the same place the Oasis front man married first wife actress Patsy Kensit in 1997. Big bruver Noel was busy in LA where he and Liam have been working on new Oasis material and so missed out on the nuptials, but Nicole's sister Natalie and her husband, Prodigy star Liam Howlett were in attendance.

Also enjoying the day were the couple's son Gene, six and Lennon, Liam's eight-year-old son from his first marriage. A source revealed: “They felt like they were married anyway. He’s worn a ring on his wedding finger for years to show his commitment. But he decided it was the right time.” Liam will head back to sunny California to re-unite with Noel and get down to business next week. Congrats to the happy couple!

Katherine Heigl has an OK marriage, ceremony that is

Katherineheiglweddingpictures02

The smiley faced Katherine release her wedding pictures to OK mag for an undisclosed sum, and even throws in an interview to boot, about how deliriously happy the smug marrieds are. To be fair this is a couple that actually appears to love each other , not just the publicity mill, but they did still sell their 'private and personal' piccies. Sell outs them? Nah..

She fills us in on just how good it feels to be her. “This new house means now we are in this together. It means compromise on style, taste and how each one of us lives, how we don’t like to live and how we’re going to work it all out. It’s going to be an amazing place to start our lives together and start a family.” Bless. And what's next with the couple? Could it be.. “I’d like to start talking children seriously in the next year but Josh feels more like two years, so we’ll probably do a year and a half.” (Josh added: “My view is, let’s take it one day and one child at a time!”)

Cheryl Cole describes 'adult' marriage to Ashley

_41335820_julien6getty_2Cheryl Cole isn’t quite as salacious as the perma-tanned Jordan, but she does love telling the media all about her marriage to Chelsea and England full-back Ashley Cole. The Girls Aloud singer has revealed in an interview with New! Magazine what an adult and mature relationship the loved-up pair share. "We don't have arguments” insists the Geordie pop star. “I know people would love to think we do, but we don't. We discuss things like adults - and like a married couple would.

"We have conversations - that is natural between a couple. But Ashley is a different person to how he is on the pitch. He wouldn't even know how to hit the roof - we have never had any blazing rows." What is she insinuating - that her hubby is an ill-disciplined motor-mouth on the pitch? I just love her insightful observation that conversations are natural between a couple. Oh Cheryl – teach us everything you know.

Chantelle reveals how her marriage made her bulimic

Chantelleandpreston_855_18193660_0_
Love her or hate her you have to feel for the Essex star who was flung so unwittingly into the spotlight and into a celeb marriage with all the trimmings.  However all was not peachy for the peroxide queens and she speaks about how her marriage turned into hell  and the lack of sex near the end of the relationship."He was so wrong for me and I was so wrong for him. We were like from two different planets. He loved politics and wanted to talk about it.  But I know nothing about politics, it doesn't interest me at  all. I wanted to watch Hollyoaks on telly but he preferred a serious documentary. I'd go and buy Victoria Beckham's autobiography  and he'd buy an educational book," she says. Well I'm with you on the Hollyoaks but VB's autobiography? Ummm.

And it didn't end there, as the blonde turned to the comforts of wine and chocolate to stave off her pain."I was drunk most nights," she admitted. "I'd drink a bottle of wine, sometimes two, because I was so unhappy. I also started scoffing bags of crisps and chocolate.  I stopped doing exercise and just watched TV. When I looked  at my naked body in the mirror I hated it—so pale and overweight.  I didn't recognise myself and felt disgusting."

Read more after the jump.

Things went from bad to worse for the blonde bimbo. " Preston took  me out to posh restaurants and I'd have soup to start, then  a big bowl of pasta followed by chocolate cake and cream. I did enjoy it but as soon as I finished I'd  feel guilty, lock myself in the toilet and stick my fingers down my throat. It was the same at home.I hated making myself sick after food binges   and knew it was bad for me. So I just lived like a hermit at home and stopped eating."                

Thankfully with support from her friends and family she realized this lifestyle wasn't' working for her and is hopefully on the road to recovery, having washed that ordinary boy right out of her extensions!

Liam Gallagher and Nicole Appleton to wed

2649471_2Hands up who even remembered these two were together? In a world of Brangelina and Posh’n’Becks, the celebrity hook-up of Oasis ‘singer’ Liam Gallagher and All Saints ‘singer’ Nicole Appleton seems so passé. They’re happy together, have a family and don’t need to court the press to appreciate the significance of their relationship – well done you washed up has-beens. Now the 90s stars are going to be walking their romance down the aisle, with a wedding planned for later in the month.

The pair, who have been together for seven years (is that some kind of celebrity record?) are said to be “registered for a service in Marylebone." This will be the first marriage for Nicole (though she enjoyed a high-profile dalliance with Robbie Williams) while this is all old-hat for Liam who was previously hitched to telly totty Patsy Kensit. Congrats and looking forward to receiving my invitation.

Has Michael Jackson married his children's nanny - again?

Michael2520jackson20todayWould you marry Michael Jackson? Apparently the former King of Pop enjoyed married life so much that he’s gone and gotten himself a new bride – his nanny. No, this isn’t a flashback to 1996 and his nuptials with Debbie Rowe. This is a whole new nanny and a whole new bride – that guy sure has a type. MJ is said to have secretly wed third wife 40-year-old Grace Rwaramba in Las Vegas (classy) earlier in the year.

The National Enquirer has gotten its mitts on a real estate document from MJ’s camp that states that the Moonwalker is married, and a chum has gone public on their ‘love’: "Grace... is one of his dearest friends. She is one of the few people who stood by his side through all of his problems - including the child molestation trial in 2005." Michael’s spokespeople are denying the union, but really why bother? It’s hardly the worst publicity he’s ever had.

Kate Moss is 'engaged' to new bloke Jamie Hince

MossRebound romance anyone? Kate Moss has been telling chums (that does not include new foe, Sienna Miller) that she is now engaged to her new fella, The Kills’ guitarist Jamie Hince. Having finally ditched the hygienically-challenged Pete Doherty, Kate has moved on and found herself a new man to shack up with. A source reports that: "Kate and Jamie had been together all night and day until 5pm and when they surfaced Kate told her friends that she and Jamie were engaged. No one thinks they are actually going to walk down the aisle soon - they know it's Kate's way of saying she is serious about him."

Oh, okay. So saying you’re engaged, doesn’t actually mean you’re engaged, it just means you’re serious about him. I get it. Must be great being a celebrity and having your own language that doesn’t comply with absolutely everyone else’s.

Jodie Marsh gets married

Silly me - I had never realised that reality TV was a possible avenue for single gals to snag a husband. It didn’t turn out so well for Preston and Chantelle, but Jodie Marsh wasn’t thinking that she might get married with her new show. Oh no, that was the whole concept of her programme 'Totally Jodie Marsh' and like a true media professional/desperate singleton, Jodie threw herself into the challenge undaunted.

With the groom confirmed, namely Matt Peacock, ex-boyfriend of fellow orange-coloured skin flasher Jordan, the two shared their love in a ceremony last weekend attended by their families, close friends (including Vanessa Feltz?) and the MTV camera crew. Surprisingly, from the look of this video it wasn’t too gaudy – maybe they were saving the strippers for the reception.

Ex-girlfriend tells all on her fling with Kerry Katona's husband

Kerry2 He cheated on her, she cheated on him – let’s just call it even shall we? After recent speculation that Kerry Katona’s husband of only six months, Mark Croft, had been unfaithful, comes the kiss and tell itself. Clare Bonello, ex-girlfriend of Mark’s, claims that she has been back in the sack with her former beau despite his having wed the ex-Atomic Kitten star.

         

Clare has ‘fessed up: 'He told me: “I'm only with her for the money". After we slept together he kept saying: “Don't tell, Kerry, don't tell Kerry. It's just not in his genes to be faithful. The only things he loves are money and fast cars.' Kerry herself has been accused of a little bit of the side, with 21-year-old Leighton Ogden alleging that he binged on cocaine with Kerry before getting down to some bedroom Olympics. Can these two sort it out or is Kerry headed for her second divorce?

Cheeky Girls: buy one, get one free

_42434225_lembit_remove100207Those Cheeky Girls really are excellent value. I am often swayed when supermarket shopping by a two-for-one deal, and it looks like I’m not alone. Liberal Democrat MP Lembit Opik is currently engaged to one half of the hotpant-wearing, flame-haired twosome, Gabriela Irimia (they have surnames – well, you learn something new every day) but has also been forced to make room for the other sister at his country cottage in Montgomeryshire, Wales.

               
The mother of the girls, Margit (a multi-talented lady herself, guilty, sorry, responsible for writing the girl’s songs and managing their music careers) was thrilled that one of her offspring had snaggled a man to shack up with, but feared for the single Monica. Having always done everything together, her maternal fears sound justified and so as an obliging gent, Lembit opened his door to Monica – even having the spare room redecorated in her favourite colours to make her feel at home.

According to the Daily Star Sunday, a source confirmed: "Gabriela loves Lembit and is really looking forward to tying the knot. But she really misses Monica's company and did not want to live apart from her. The girls' mother Margit is really pleased Lembit has found a compromise."

            

I’ll bet they’re the talk of the town in Montgomeryshire.

Usher to marry this weekend

UsherSorry ladies, from this Saturday R’n’B star Usher will be off the market. Usher and his lady friend Tameka Foster will be making it official and saying “I do”, though those invited have only just found out. There were no invitations involved as the loved up pair wanted to keep things under wraps, preferring to phone people instead, and all with only a few days notice. Why the rush? Tameka (10 years Usher’s senior and mother to 3 children from a previous relationship) has a bun in the oven and they wanted to get hitched before she gives birth.

                  

Celebrity chums rumoured to be on the exclusive guest list include Jay-Z and Beyoncé, though there may some notable omissions. Usher recently fired both his assistant of 6 years and his manager mother Jonetta Patton (eek – family counseling anyone?) and it is not known whether either will be invited to the shindig. The rifts are said to be due to his choice of bride, with the message of disapproval further expressed by Erika Jackson, owner of Usher’s biggest fansite www.usherforever.com. Usher is now battling to have the website closed because of this. Are we in for more Britney/ K-Fed ‘I told you so’s?’

Louise and Jamie Redknapp: Not interested in fame

Jredknappphoto1_jpg_wdi34897Really Louise, tut tut. Don’t you know that as a wife to an ex-footballer, it is your role to grace cheap tabloids, make friends with other photographed celebrities and if you’re really lucky, model for Asda? You are not allowed to be normal, spill ketchup down your top or miss a manicure. These things are simply not done. Well kudos to Mrs. Redknapp for putting two fingers up to the cult of celebrity and insisting that her and hubbie Jamie are happy to lead a low-key lifestyle.

She may technically be referred to as a WAG, but Louise says her and Jamie, who have been married since 1998 and have a son, Charley, are not interested in cashing in on their fame. 'It doesn't particularly appeal to us, especially Jamie. He just wanted to play football. He was the captain, and he was proud just to do that. He wasn't a model. However, times have changed and it's more acceptable for players to have a celebrity status and promote things. Some take it to the absolute max... but I think it's better to be known and remembered for what your talent is. There are times when you think, "Should we have cashed in more? Played the game a bit more?" Then we go, "Nah!"' Good for you Louise!

Mel B to marry again?

Mel_bHasn’t she got enough on her plate? No apparently. Mel B may have only just spawned ex boyfriend Eddie Murphy’s sprog and announced the Spice Girls re-union, but she has cunningly found time to fall in love with film producer Stephen Belafonte. Scary Spice and her new beau could soon be taking a trip down the aisle together with Brown having blabbed "He's the love of my life and I am going to marry him. Stephen's been a godsend.”

If I had gone through as many failed relationships in the public eye as her, I like to think I might show a bit more caution in publicly branding someone “the love of my life”. She had first husband Jimmy Gulzar, TV ‘star’ Max Beesley, some lesbian flings and then Eddie Murphy, or as Posh described him in her show ‘Victoria Beckham: Coming to America’ “Beverly Hills C**k”. Never one to miss the opportunity to dis her ex, Mel elaborated “Eddie hasn't been in touch once since I had the baby, it's unbelievable. But Stephen has been a tower of strength." Good, looks like he’ll do for the next ten minutes then.

Everybody hates Teri

Evalongori_grani_4786646_400 We all know that Eva Longoria recently got married to US sports star Tony Parker in France. It was her big day, her fairytale moment, yada, yada, yada. What is now becoming apparent from the media circus wedding is that Teri Hatcher was a spotlight hog (tut, tut Teri) and people are not happy. Longoria's Desperate Housewives co-stars flew to Paris to enjoy her big day (excepting Marcia Cross who was holed up with her newborn babies) and most of them graciously tried to keep a low profile. One guest told all to the press: "A private walkway was set up so that as the celebrities exited the bus from the hotel, they could sneak through the fans and paparazzi. Felicity (Huffman) and Nicollette (Sheridan) walked into the church hand in hand, but Teri took her daughter and walked around into the public area to pose for photos and wave to fans for 10 minutes. It was so strange! Everyone else was so excited to be going into the church for the wedding, and all of a sudden, Teri broke away from the group to make sure she was seen and photographed."

Making matters worse, Hatcher wore a dress by the same designer who clothed the bridesmaids, a similarity that did not go unnoticed. Oh Teri - I know you are the least attractive of the Housewives, perennially single and have delusions of grandeur ("I want to resuscitate my film career" being a particular gem. What film career? You died early on in a Bond film and that's it!) - but stealing a bride's limelight? We have a new low people.

Charlie Sheen announces engagement

Charlie_sheenIt's a sad day for us ladies, as 80's favourite and sitcom star Charlie Sheen has announced that he and girlfriend Brooke Mueller are to head up the aisle. They've been together for all of 13 months (which I guess in Hollywood deserves some kind of gold star) but Sheen's divorce to actress-extraordinaire Denise Richards only came through last November. Now he's a free agent and can make things official with his new lady love, who is (unsurprisingly) 12 years his junior and is (surprisingly) not an aspiring starlet but a real estate investor. The proposal occurred on a Costa Rican beach, with a rock said to cost a whopping $500,000! Hell, for that kinda bling I'd marry Charlie Sheen - hookers, drugs, who cares? Gimme that jewellery!

Ex wife Denise is said to approve of the match and has been spotted taking her replacement under her wing. Hilariously, a friend of hers told PEOPLE magazine that the Starship Troopers star "put together a bag with toys for her (Brooke) and the girls (Sheen and Richards' daughters Lola and Sam) along with a card telling her she's glad (Brooke) makes their father so happy." What a lovely gesture, after reading that I might need a bag of my own.

Chantelle and Preston break up

Chantelle and Preston seemed to be the perfect couple, young, rich and in love; with their whole romance played out on prime time TV live. Unfortunately, though they had the dream wedding and the declarations of love, it seems the chavvy couple have parted ways now, and Pres-telle is no more. It makes this song rather bittersweet in retrospect, as when Preston sings, 'I love you, you know that don't you,' one feels there should be a expiry date added. Still, it's good for a montage moment.

Penny and Rod tie the knot

73746093

This couple have been on/off for so long that it was quite a shock that they finally stopped arguing long enough to say I do. Their wedding took place over the weekend and in comparison to the OTT WAG antics at the weekend was rather civilized and sweet. The marriage took place in  low key in Porotfino, with just a handful of close friends and celebs, but the couple then ruined their media free start to wedded life by attending a giant bash with Michael Bolton, Nicolette Sheridan and other assorted stars. Start as you mean to go on, eh?

Reese Witherspoon & Ryan Phillippe Set To Divorce

3110_wither_g_1We honestly did not see this coming at all, that Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe would be hightailing it out of their marital home separately one day. Their representatives announced late yesterday that 'Reese and Ryan have decided to formally separate', with a source claiming the split was not triggered by 'any single event, but rather by cumulative circumstances'. We guess that means no-one else was involved in the breakup, say, Owen Wilson, except the hundreds of Academy awards judges who gave her an Oscar for Walk The Line, whilst cruelly mocking Ryan's pivotal appearance in Outkast's 'Hey Ya' video. We hear they were more Stankonia fans than The Love Below, anyway.

Top Ten Stories - Keith Urban Is An Alkie, & Madonna Is A Cradle-Snatcher

DradcliffeGood news ladies, Harry Potter, ahem, Daniel Radcliffe, is single. And going to be performing NUDE onstage next summer. Try to curb your enthusiasm, there.
Country crooner Keith Urban has quietly checked into rehab for alcohol abuse, whilst wife Nicole Kidman still manages to get some action with fellow rehab-fan, Robert Downey Jr.
Sharon Osbourne declares that fat is the new black, as she's set to remove her gastric band later this year.
The father of the year old Malawian orphan that Madonna has recently adopted is now claiming he didn't consent to him being adopted, that he thought they would only look after him for awhile. More likely he heard her latest album and couldn't surrender his child to such future horrors.
Jade Goody, forever having problems with the numerous men in her life, reportedly punched boyfriend Jack on Saturday night, splitting his lip.
Lindsay Lohan is a dirty, dirty bitch. But a considerate one, at that, as she left dozens of designer clothes behind when she recently moved out of the hotel she called home.
The Arctic Monkeys are set to write an autobiography based on their stardom, to be due before Christmas.
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are set to get married in Italy next month, no doubt due to the lovely scenery there, and not all the hot male action. Ahem.
Predictably, Michael Barrymore's comeback attempt has failed, possibly due to the fact he's playing 'Scrooge' in A Christmas Carol, hitting more than slightly close to home.

Top Ten Stories - Sienna Miller Looks Under 21, & Angelina Jolie Is A Murderer's Muse

Sienna_4Finally, someone puts holier-than-thou Sienna Miller in her place and denies her entry to a club, sadly for not having ID, not for being a stinky actress.
It seems being in close proximity to Angelina Jolie turns people into fighting-machines, as her driver hits a motorcyclist in India.
Contrary to all the rumours circulating about her and Vince Vaughn, Jennifer Aniston told Oprah they're still together. Does this mean they're an official couple now?
Kevin Federline is understandably insecure about his marriage with Britney, and has convinced her not to lose her baby weight so she won't get so much male attention.
Nick Lachey blames their Newlyweds reality show as the instigator to his marriage break-up, and not say, Jessica's infidelity.
80s-throwback Justin Hawkins comes out of rehab and quits The Darkness, blaming his cocaine problems on being in the novelty band. Quite understandable - we'd be addicts too if we looked like that.
Nicole Richie debuts her new red haircolour with a new man. Needless to say, we preferred the old look better, in more ways than one.
Elle Macpherson has dropped her lawsuit against Heidi Klum over the use of her nickname 'The Body', after meeting the Dalai Lama. Bet he loved admonishing her on her childish fight with the fellow model, dirty thing.
Because apparently SpongeBob SquarePants is the new Simpsons, David Bowie adds to his archive of cameos and makes a guest appearance on the underwater show as Lord Royal Highness.
Desperate for attention, P Diddy has revealed that he never loved Jennifer Lopez to begin with. Neither did we, mate, neither did we.

Perpetual skinny, Gwyneth Paltrow, has scrapped the macrobiotic diet she's been on for years, as she apparently isn't losing her minimal baby weight.
The folks behind X Factor are planning a reality show involving WAGs opening shops in Mayfair. According to the producer, 'there is no way that the girls are all going to remain friends'.
According to Pete Doherty's uncle (so reliable), Pete and Kate are going to get married on Kate's birthday, January 16th, as if we haven't already heard a million wedding rumours by now.
Hugh Hefner, the former sex-machine, no longer has the energy for sex, saying that he instead prefers a game of dominoes with the Playboy bunnies. Maybe he's gay?
Mel Gibson has apologised for his drunken, racist outburst of recent times, however seemingly forgets to apologise for The Passion of the Christ.
Like the sadist she is, Nicole Kidman has apparently phoned Katie Holmes and encouraged her to marry Tom Cruise, hopefully for entertainment's value only.
Russell Brand has found love with an art student. Figures, only an art student could love something like that.
Make sure you watch the Sharon Osbourne show tonight at 5pm, as apparently she's hopelessly drunk on tonight's episode - always a bonus, drunk elderly women.

Top Ten Stories - Madonna Adopts Orphan, But In More Breaking News, Paris & Nicole Are BFF's Again! Hallelujah!

Madonna_13'Holiday...Celebrate...Buy a baby...In Malawi', is reportedly the tune Madonna is humming, since she apparently did an Angelina Jolie and adopted an orphan, naming him 'Luca'. Sorry Madge, but adopting an orphan won't get you Brad, you're stuck with Guy and his crap movies for life.
Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton have reportedly sucked-face and made-up, leading many to wonder if there's another dreaded Simple Life in the works.
Lindsay Lohan obviously doesn't rate appearing at a benefit in Australia for kids and tweens very highly, as she skips out of the negotiations. She must've twigged that 13 year-olds are just far too young.
Chris De Burgh (get back in your box, raging-hormones), claims he can heal people with his hands. Me first! Me first!
Penelope Cruz naturally attracts beardy-lesbians. Like Tom Cruise.

Paris Hilton is snapped with some seedy looking skunk. Skank with some skunk, how's that for a new lyric, princess?
Following in the foosteps of Take That, and, err, 5ive, S Club 7 are reforming, heaven forbid.
Not content with appearing in the news only for being found slumped over his wheel on drugs, George Michael has announced Wham! are reuniting for a 'Christmas extravangza', hopefully sharing his drugs with the audience this time.
Russell Brand decides to do a Paris Hilton, and become celibate. Something tells me his attempt will be even more short-lived than hers.

Anna Nicole Smith Gets 'Not Married'

Ans_1 I must admit that I did watch 'The Anna Nicole Smith Show', because it was so awful I couldn't not look. And I always found her lawyer, Howard J Stern, a bit... well... creepy, really, and I remember turning to a friend of mine and saying "he so wants a bit of Anna Nicole". And guess what - three years on I've been proved right! It's emerged that Howard claims to be the father of Anna Nicole's newborn daughter, Danni, and the pair have apparently declared their love for one another onboard a catamaran off Nassau in the Bahamas, but there wasn't a marriage certificate issued.

Things aren't all rosy in the garden though - Anna Nicole has since learned that her ex-boyfriend Larry Birkhead has requested a DNA test on the newborn, claiming he thinks he - not Howard - is the father. Anna Nicole is still reeling from the death of her son last month.

Matt LeBlanc Gets Divorced

Joey Some things, no matter how much you want them to work, are irretrievably doomed.  It's nobody's fault, and despite the best efforts of all involved, the best thing for all parties to admit that it's pointless going on.  Matt LeBlanc can now truly say he knows this as well as anyone can.  But ... wait for it ... enough about Joey.

Matt is officially divorced from wife Melissa McKnight, after three years of marriage.  The settlement, finalised yesterday, will see LeBlanc pay $15,000 a month in child support.  Since the split, the Friends star has been dating Joey co-star Andrea Anders.  So, as with the marriage, at least something good resulted from the series.  [Toni Kelly]

Katie To Play Posh

Katie Now, please understand that here at Star Trip we're not the sort of people who will judge an artistic endeavour before we've seen/heard it.  That would be wrong and ignorant of us.  But, faced with the rumour that Tom Cruise has pitched the idea of a David Beckham biopic - let's just say eyebrows were raised.  The fact that Paramount optioned the movie caused those same eyebrows to move higher.  And, well, certain people will be taking tweezers to the backs of their necks in future with the news that Katie Holmes is set to play Posh.

A British actor is being lined up to play Becks, which will undoubtedly lead to guesswork aplenty in the press.  No word yet on who'll play Rebecca Loos.  An insider said "Tom has a brilliant grasp of what the public want to see".  Really?  And he STILL made The Last Samurai?  [Toni Kelly]

Eminem Getting Divorced As Well

Eminem_1 They do say "Third time's the charm".  Rapper Eminem has called in a mediator to help reach an agreement on his second divorce from wife Kim.  Em, who originally divorced Kim in 2001 before re-marrying her at the start of this year, filed for another divorce back in April.  After a meeting of lawyers ended in stalemate, mediation is the next step.  Both parties are stressing that what is most important in the case is the welfare of their daughter, Hailie Jade, and Eminem's niece Alaina, of whom he has full custody.

Perhaps what's really important is that they make up their minds already.  I swear, if they get married again after this, they can whistle for the next divorce.  They can just stay married.  That'll teach 'em.  [Toni Kelly]

Bobby Brown Upset By Whitney Split

Whitney_5 Bobby Brown has revealed his heartbreak over wife Whitney Houston's decision to file for divorce after 14 years of marriage.  While the rest of us sit and marvel that they managed FOURTEEN YEARS, for Whitney and Bobby the ugliness is only just getting going - word has it that la Houston is asking for custody of daughter Bobbi Kristina.  Bobby broke his silence over the split, telling reporters "I'm really saddened by the whole situation".

Anyone who saw moments from the reality TV show Being Bobby Brown will remember that Brown seemed the more stable partner in the relationship.  However, onlookers have claimed that Whitney looks better than she has done for a while - admittedly not difficult, as whatever the cause she certainly has been looking gaunt - and is planning a comeback album, to be released next year.  One can assume that interviews will form part of the promotion for such an album.  Should be interesting...

A Week With Britney & Kevin

Britkev_13

Busy times at the Spears-Federline residence, as Britney has given birth to their second child; their second boy. Britney is remarkably decent when it comes to baby names (perhaps the only non-trash thing about her now) and is rumoured to be calling son number two Sutton Pierce, so he'll have the same initials as Britney's firstborn, Sean Preston. Which is quite a nice idea; love to know who thought of it, it sure as hell wasn't her. No other news from the K-Fed and Britney camp - one would imagine they're loving time with their newborn. OR, Britney's loving it, Kevin's out buying some gold shoes or something.  [Toni Kelly]

David Beckham has gone on the record with something we all knew; wife Victoria is addicted to spending and shopping, and not always with their own money. She's also apparently a bit tight-fisted, as David says: "Victoria loves shopping. She goes out and buys loads of expensive bags and clothes. Then she says, 'I bought you something', and hands me this leather bracelet that cost about one euro."

Sir Paul Gets Support From Richard & Judy

Macca_2 When Heather Mills realised that her marriage to Sir Paul McCartney was over, she probably expected a custody battle - but not over Richard & Judy. The TV power couple have come down hard on Paul's side and completely cut Heather - who they've had on their teatime TV show countless times - out of their life. And good for them!

Richard has been scathing of Heather in his newspaper column - where he finished with the words "a happy man is a good husband. Linda [Paul's first wife] knew that instinctively. Perhaps Heather should learn it - and Judy is said to have been a shoulder for Paul to cry on, says Closer magazine.

This all makes me think... does Heather Mills have any friends? Anyone at all?

A Week With Jordan & Peter

Pete_9 I would imagine Peter has been in hot water this week after magazine reports alleged wife Jordan had a drinking problem, whilst listing their source as Peter's own autobiography. Ouch. Since then, the pair have been busy setting the record straight as Jordan denies an alcohol problem and just says Peter doesn't like her when she drinks. I'm not sure what the big deal about something so small is - when my husband has had one too many he starts singing about how much he misses Ireland - but that's the world of celebrity for you.

I'd just like to say something on the subject of Peter's autobiography. I've seen proof copies of it and the typeface and layout of the cover is exactly the same as it was for Jordan's first book, Being Jordan. Whilst I know these two are trying to be a global power couple, couldn't he have at least had something a bit different? Despite the book going into Peter's pop career, it's still called All About Us. Poor lad, bet he'd hoped for a bit of individual recognition for a change.

MySpace Exposé

Preston This week's MySpace Exposé is a sad little story, as I'm featuring the profile of Preston; Ordinary Boys singer and newlywed. It's a sad story because little Preston, despite being in a band and appearing on Celebrity Big Brother, only has 52 friends on his profile. The poor little lamb. This is clearly a sore point, as in April this year he posted a blog entry about how he wanted more friends, stating a bet with another "celebrity" as his reason for putting the plea out. Yeah, right, I'd imagine he just logged on to another celeb profile and saw he was down on the friends stakes by around 100,000.

It's not really any surprise that he's got so few friends (for a famous bloke). His MySpace is, essentially, crap, with just three blog entries and a few photos. There's not even an Ordinary Boys song set up to play when you log on to the page! Really, this is amateur stuff, young man.

Now I'm not suggesting they should have a screaming argument in public just to give me something to write about (though it would be nice), I'd just like them to, you know, do more than play football or shop.

The usual rounds of "friends fear for skinny Victoria" have been doing the rounds in the 'gossip and lifestyle' magazines, but that aside, there is NOTHING for me to say here. If P&B aren't careful, I'm going to have to start making it up. And I have a very overactive imagination ("David Beckham Eaten By Comeback Dodos!").

Tabloid Tales: Are Guy Ritchie and Madonna squabbling over school year start?

Madonna_12 No, it's not a row over whether they should get Lourdes and Rocco's uniforms from an exclusive tailor, or go for the £4 trousers in Tesco. At least, not yet. Instead, today's Sun reports that Guy doesn't want Madonna to take the kids on tour with her once the new school term starts, so they can get their 3 R's from one school, rather than shuttling around the globe with mum.

"Madonna thinks it’s good for her kids to be with Mom and see the world, but Guy disagrees," a family source tells the paper. "He’s more traditional and would prefer them at one school." Let's hope they get the row sorted out soon so they can move onto the important issues, like whether the kids should get Monster Munch or Cheestrings in their lunch boxes...

A Week With TomKat

Tomkat_10 Well, it's been a busy week down TomKat way over the past seven days, though there's not been much about them as a couple as such. Tom's been making headlines, following his unceremonial dumping by Paramount, who tore up his production deal with them. There's been a bit of a war of words since then, with Tom saying he left Paramount - not the other way round - and it's all been very, very childish, even by celebrity standards. It's now emerged that Tom has chosen to take a paycut of $7million and has signed a new deal worth around $3million a year. Considering he hasn't had a box office smash in some time, he should be very happy with that, especially when you consider that amount is one to cover "office and staffing" expenses. Are all of his staff made of solid gold?

It's also emerged that Tom has taken quite a spectacular drop in popularity since beginning his relationship with Katie Holmes and his subsequent insane behaviour. He finished last in a UK poll, where readers were asked to vote which actor they'd like as their best friend. The marketing industry 'Q' scores (nope, I haven't got a clue) have also indicated Tom is on a downward popularity spiral.

And we still haven't seen that bloody baby!

Jennifer And Vince Stage Bust-Up

Aniston_3 Better-than-Brangelina couple Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston staged a comedy bust-up for their first public appearance together, accepting a Teen Choice award for Movie Chemistry.  In a play on the idea of "chemistry", Aniston interrupted Vaughn as he spoke about the concept, leading to childish bickering between the couple.

Vince started: "We just want to thank all the voters out there who put us up for this award. When you are dealing with on screen chemistry, it isn't an equitable kind of thing..." [Toni Kelly]

Jennifer then interrupted, saying: "It's not something that happens. It's something, you know..."

Vince reacted "angrily": "I guess part of having chemistry is having someone cutting in the middle of a sentence."

Jennifer shot back: "I wasn't cutting in. I was just adding my thoughts to yours, you know, that's what chemistry is, two people talking, instead of one just talking, talking, talking.  You know, Vince, maybe you have enough chemistry for all of us".

Is Kevin Federline Making Babies Purely For Financial Gain?

KfedWe just told you about how K-Fed claims he's broke, and that he doesn't get any money from his wife, 'As a man, I wouldn't be happy sitting back and living off my wife's fortune', he twittered once. Well, turns out he wasn't quite disclosing the whole truth there. It turns out for each child he has with Britney, he gets a certain amount of money, in cash, and in the millions. Apparently prior to the wedding, a source blabbed that he met with lawyers, and 'was sitting sort of slumped over with a baseball cap over his eyes and a lawyer was talking about how he had to sign a pre-nup and Kevin looked sort of bummed out. But then the lawyer explained that for every child the two of you have together, you would receive X amount of dollars. His eyes really lit up'. Ker-ching! And I thought gold-diggers came in the form of leggy blondes. [Katherine Hannaford]

The writing did seem to be on the wall when Kate recently commented: "I don't like this idea of the perfect marriage. People can be in love madly and deeply and go through so much and still end up together. That's what you hope for." She also warned would-be newlyweds that marriage is not easy.

Jennifer Aniston & Vince Vaughn Engaged?

Cover601_1Celebs these days just don't know whether they're Arthur or Martha, do they? It was only yesterday we reported that Vaughniston were not engaged, that 'talk of marriage or engagement is complete hogwash. Vince appears to have gone distant, and Jen is looking no further than a day at a time', whereas today the US Weekly site announced they were engaged. What really puzzles me is that the proposal apparently took place at Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis's digs in Mexico - hardly the most romantic of places, considering he is an alleged rapist! So only time will tell whether this latest engagement rumour is simply that, a rumour, but I for one am not holding my breath. [Katherine Hannaford]

Heather Mills McCartney Made To Look Stupid ... And Locked Out As Well

Heather_5We mentioned recently that Heather Mills McCartney was left "glowering with rage" after an unfortunate miscommunication left her locked out of her estranged husband's home yesterday, according to the Mirror.  It seems that Paul, co-writer of such classics as "Yesterday", and such legacy-staining travesties as "Free As A Bird", had changed the locks on the mansion's outer gates, and FORGOTTEN to tell Heather.  There's no other explanation, is there?

A source claimed: "She was horrified to find the gate lock changed. It was a huge mix-up."  Well, indeed.  No doubt Paul was left ashen-faced when he realised his "mistake".  Heather, who had turned up for an arranged visit, sent her security guard over the fence to open the gate from the inside, whereupon Macca's security men called the police, fearing a break-in.  She then requested her chauffeur to drive daughter Beatrice around the block so she wouldn't be upset by the sight of police officers.  Look, somebody's left this stable door open, I'll close it.  Oh NO!  Where's the horse?

Pamela Anderson & Kid Rock Get Married

Pammie Did anyone ever see the episode of MTV Cribs starring Pamela Anderson around 2002-time? She was swanning around her huge house somewhere on America's West coast, but she barely talked about the house. It was all about her hepatitis and, of course, her endless love for Kid Rock. She spoke about him in such a loving way that even I, the cynical star-gazer, thought she was genuinely in love with him.

Then they broke up.

However, love wins at last, as it's emerged that Baywatch's finest has finally said 'I do' to her ugly-as-sin boyfriend, the same Kid Rock. The pair are said to have rediscovered their romance after meeting on a friend's yacht (God, that is so LA). Pam recently wrote on her website: "I'm moving on... I feel like I'm finally free. I'm in love. I'm happy... I see the light... sounds dramatic, but it's true." Oh God she's going to regret all that crap when they get divorced (aha! I knew that cynic in me wasn't gone forever...)

The couple have already made a declaration of love with, ahem, matching tattoos. Must be love, then. [Toni Kelly]

Liz Hurley Set To Marry - In England!

Liz I don't know what to believe about Liz Hurley's impending nuptials. First off, it's reported they're engaged but can't get married until businessman boyfriend Arun Nayer has finalised his divorce. That happens, but there's still no wedding. Reason this time: his family - who're Indian - don't approve of Liz. Then eventually they decide they will get married, but it'll be in Indian and be a traditional ceremony.

Now, it's presto chango again as new magazine have reported Liz and Arun are actually set to tie the knot at the Barnsley House Hotel in the Cotswolds, which backs on to Liz's £4 million mansion. The pair have booked the entire place for almost a week in mid-September, and insiders say the wedding will be "a big function" with around 120 guests set to attend. I wonder if they'll actually go through with it, this time? [Toni Kelly]

Katie Holmes' Parents May Boycott Her Wedding

Tomkat_4 Oh-oh. There's trouble a-brewing down TomKat way. Whilst the new parents - who have still yet to allow baby Suri to be photographed by the press - are getting ready for their impending wedding, it seems Katie's traditional Catholic parents aren't exactly keen on the plans.

Star magazine has reported that Tom has insisted the wedding will take place at a Scientology centre in Hollywood and will be conducted by church leader David Miscavige. However, Katie's more traditional parents are said to be considering boycotting the wedding in protest. A source says: "Katie was never going to win an argument to have a Catholic wedding. She knows that if she rejected Scientology, he relationship with Tom could have ended. She has become a big part of the church."

Christ, woman, get some balls and make him do as he's told for a change! [Toni Kelly]

Brad: "Why I Won't Marry Angelina"

Brad_3 They're the nuptials all of us star gazers have been waiting for, but it looks like we'll be made to wait a little longer until we see Brangelina stroll up the aisle. For over a year, it seems a day can't go by without someone claiming they're getting wed, but Brad Pitt has poured cold water over the rumours by confessing to his Gran, Betty, that he still hasn't got over his marriage to Jennifer Aniston.

Big-mouthed Betty told Star magazine: "Brad promised his last wife [Aniston] on their wedding day they'd be together forever, and they didn't make it. He is a sensitive soul who just wants to make sure he can keep his promise this time round."

A friend added: "Brad's world is wonderful right not, but he can't forget the words he said to Jen on their wedding day. That is the mark of total respect he still has for Jen. He made the promise all husbands do - to love Jen forever. But deep down, I suspect he feels a pang of regret that the marriage didn't work out."

Am I reading this right? A celebrity actually respecting their vows and the sanctity of marriage? Never thought I'd see the day... [Toni Kelly]

Nadine said: "I definitely want to get married before I am 30. I’ve always dreamed of a big white wedding back home in Ireland." She continued on the subject of boyfriend Metcalfe: "He is so sweet. He has met my parents and they think he’s great. I’ve never been so happy."

Yes, sweet. That's the essential characteristic you look for in the man you're contemplating spending the rest of your life with. Sweet. [Toni Kelly]

Britney And Kevin To Renew Marriage Vows.

Britkev_5 It has been claimed that troubled couple, Britney Spears and Kevin Federline, want to renew their wedding vows to stop speculation over their relationship. Since marrying last September, the couple have had to deal with numerous reports that their relationship is in trouble. Various British magazines recently claimed Britney had gone as far as to file divorce papers.

The couple have also decided a second series of their God-awful reality TV show, 'Chaotic', is in the pipeline, again to prove their marriage is rock solid. I cannot help but wonder if all this "we are together" nonsense is only neccessary if a couple is genuinely in trouble? If they were strong enough, surely they'd just brush past the rumours? But this is Hollywood, I suppose... [Toni Kelly]

Concerns about the finanicial burden it has taken on the family, as well as not celebrating Christmas with her children are cited as being the reasons behind the move. The Independent claim that she donates several million pounds to the religion every year, and bought a building for the London branch for more than £3.6 million several years ago. Perhaps she can become a member of the Star Trip religion and donate several million to us instead. You listening, Madonna? [Katherine Hannaford]

Britkev_4Honestly, I don't know what I'd do with my time if the ongoing Brit and K-Fed saga fizzled up and died, I'd be pulling my hair out in fright at the thought of Britney...And Spederline...Happy?! The latest news is that Britney Spears has seemingly grown tired of their new PR offensive where they try to convince the world their sham of a marriage is infact all sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows, everywhere. The couple recently went on a holiday to Florida, but reportedly stayed in separate houses, spending a massive $250,000 on Aqua Island. 'She did it to get away from Kevin,' a friend blabbed. Whilst Britney spent time with their son Sean, Kevin enjoyed jet-skiing, clubbing, guzzling Cristal champagne, and generally larking it up with the boys. A friend of Brit's says that despite their numerous problems, she 'wants the world to think they're happier than ever.' Really, I've run out of related jokes about their sham of a marriage, it's just getting sad now. [Katherine Hannaford]

Brangelina Will NOT Be Getting Married Any Time Soon.

Brangelina_2 Once upon a time, couples would get wed and then decide to have children. It seems that the more traditional route is being abandoned more and more by celebrities, and Brangelina are no different. Having recently welcomed their first child to the world, they've gone to the media and said that they have absolutely no plans to marry at the moment. Of course, it could be a 'clever' ruse to get the media to back off, but it might also be true. To me, the question becomes - why have a kid together but not get married? Why aren't they getting married? Is there trouble in paradise?

new magazine reports that Angelina said: "There is nothing in the air. The focus is the kids, and we are obviously extremely committed to the children as parents together, so that kind of says it for us. To have a ceremony on top of it is nothing."

What with reports that Brad is getting bored with the backpacking lifestyle Angelina so enjoys, somehow I don't see this ending well. [Toni Kelly]

Kerry Katona Wars With Her Mum and Best Friend.

Kerry_6 I swear, without Kerry Katona and Jade Goody, Closer magazine would fold because they wouldn't know what to write about. This week, it's the former that's in trouble. Ex-Atomic Kitten singer (and I use that word loosely) Kerry is said to be warring with her mother Sue after she urged Kerry to ditch cab driver fiance Mark Croft, telling her daughter that he is only interested in her fame and money. A friend said that Kerry responded by denying Sue access to her grandchildren and added: "Sue told Kerry she can't be around Mark and that he was just using her for her money and fame. Kerry was really hurt and told Sue she wanted nothing more to do with her."

In a further attempt to alienate all of her friends and family, Kerry also argued with best friend Lisa Rhodes who too voiced worries over how trustworthy Kerry's new man is. Look, Kerry love, don't you think it's about time you took the hint and ditched him? [Toni Kelly]

She's said, according to Star magazine, to want a proposal within three months and also wants to get pregnant this summer!

"She wants Vince to take the next step and give her a ring," a friend revealed. "She is desperate to get her future sorted and find out of sure whether Vince is going to follow through and be her main man. She feels that Vince hasn't made the moves he should be making."

And this is all completely unrelated to the birth of Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, I presume? [Toni Kelly]

David & Victoria Beckham Renew Their Wedding Vows.

David_3 It seems a week cannot go buy in showbiz without a new story about the Beckham's marriage. This week, however, there's no PAs or suntan experts around and it's actually a positive story about their relationship. For those of you thinking this might just be good PR for David during the World Cup we think alike maybe they're just happy?

Star magazine reports David recently surprised Victoria with a ceremony to renew their wedding vows. Following continued reports of his infidelity, let's hope David takes them a bit more seriously this time! The ceremony took place at their Madrid home and a friend revealed: "David keeps saying how they are getting on better since they moved into their home in Madrid. They are truly operting like a solid family and renewed vows are a celebration of being able to spend the rest of their lives together."

I've promised myself not to be cynical today, so it's probably best I leave this entry here. [Toni Kelly]

Billie_3 Having been married to Chris Evans (what on earth do people see in that man?), it's not really surprising that popstar-come-actress Billie Piper has decided she's had enough of marriage for now. Despite being happy with student boyfriend Amadu Sowe, the 23-year-old has told Closer magazine that marriage is really the last thing on her mind. She blunty said: "I don't know if I ever will. I'm going to have a few years of not being married."

And with a promising acting career ahead of her, here's hoping Billie can finally recover from (or even better, forget) her marriage to the talentless Chris. [Toni Kelly]

Nicole Kidman & Keith Urban's Marriage In The Dark.

Nicole2_1 Considering that the majority of A-list weddings tend to turn into a media free-for-all, it looks like Nicole Kidman has got her head screwed on when it comes to how she'll marry fiance Keith Urban. The Australian actress has decided to marry the country star at 6pm in her native Australia - when it will be dark, as it's currently winter down under. The night-time nuptials will prevent paparrazi in helicopters getting sneaky pictures. Star magazine consulted an aviation expert who said: "Darkness would make it difficult."

(Wow, wasn't that a priceless soundbite). The couple plan to officially release two photographs of the wedding and leave it at that. Somehow, I don't think TomKat's wedding will be quite so low-key. [Toni Kelly]

She told the Sunday Times magazine: "Have I ever been totally and completely intimidated by another person? Yes. My husband's mother."

I’d sit on his lap and I drive. We’re country.' Yes, Britney, as we're forever reminded each time we see a photo of you in your curlers and without proper foot attire. Or any, for that matter. She also begged any happy-snappers out there, watching her tearful plea, 'You have a life. And if you don’t, you have to realize that we’re people and that we...Just need privacy and we need our respect. And those are things that you have to have as a human being.'

Britney Spears Finally Files Divorce Papers

The British publication has made claims that Britney Spears, seen here in rather attractive curlers like the rashers-slinging housewife she is, has filed preliminary divorce papers. A friend of the former pin-up confessed 'she is serious about it and even though she’s pregnant she knows that she has to get things moving.' According to the source, she is 5 months pregnant, and will soon be a single mother, living in a trailer with any luck, K-Fed having somehow bamboozled her into handing over her dwindling loot. If I knew how to read tarot cards, I would've predicted this eons ago. [Katherine Hannaford]

Hopefully you've got a bottomless chasm to fill up with rumours Britney and Kevin are going to split soon, cos gosh, there's alot of them out there. I just had a quick peek at Britney Spears's official website, where recently she has been publishing her poetry, and this new poem doesn't come as much of a shock. Titled 'Remembrance of Who I Am', it appears to be aimed at Kevin, with lines such as 'How do you stand sleeping at night...The sins of the father, what you do, you pass down, no wonder why I lost my crown...My crown is back and it's way too high for you to be in my presence, especially my son.' Below the poem is a picture of Britters pulling a rude hand gesture, which hopefully means their inevitable divorce is just past the cornershop. [Katherine Hannaford]

Nicole Kidman Bans Sex

Nicole_1Aw shucks. It's enough to make your eyes bleed in sympathy for Keith Urban. His fiancee, Nicole Kidman, has put a ban on sex until their wedding night, apparently following lead from Russell Crowe, who is obviously such a good role model when he's not throwing phones. A source told the Daily Sport rag 'going four weeks without sex will certainly increase the passion on their wedding night,' and no doubt Keith will be err - bursting with 'pent up energy' just like Russell Crowe on his big night. The wedding is to be held on June 25th, near Sydney, Australia, and the hotel they're staying at afterwards is probably a 30 second walk away, if Keith had anything to do with the booking.

Leaky Kevin Federline Can't Be Trusted

KfedcleanshavenK-Fed, (seen here clean shaven with a new 'do, for Item magazine), is apparently under criticism for causing most of the tabloid leaks written about him and his wife, Britney Spears. A source told US magazine 'Britney knows Kevin tells his friends information, knowing they will leak it to tabloids', and that 'they sell stories for money. ... She is sick of him using her for them to profit.' According to this source, Britney has stopped telling Kevin key details, for instance that she was going to announce her pregnancy on the David Letterman show. Girl, we told you that dawg was toxic months ago, fo' shizzle. Put him out on the curb where he belongs, where one of the Olsen twins can pick him up. Match made in heaven. [Katherine Hannaford]

TomKat To Split?

Tomkat_2 Dear Father Christmas,
Please, oh porky, jolly one, pleeeease grant me this early Christmas present, I promise I'll be EVER so good in the future, I promise not to make a single more snarky comment about Heather Mills's leg again, please pretty please help me out here. You just HAVE to make Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes split up, I just KNOW you have the power to do so, and you MUST want to dig up some unsavoury photos of Tom in a compromising position with an L. Ron Hubbard statue, so as to force Katie away from that evil, EVIL man. For goodness sakes, the man wears HEELS! Is that not enough to convince you, Papa Noel?

How about the fact that he has FLAT-OUT refused to accompany Katie to see her family after the birth of that unfortunate child, Suri, and I quote, from a source, 'Katie was really happy he said that, because she’d been afraid to admit to him that she didn’t want him to go.' What sort of relationship is that, eh? EH?! A close friend of hers even said 'Katie’s very unhappy and beginning to realize she may have made a major mistake being with Tom.' Well, if only she'd been reading Star Trip before she first clapped eyes on the midget, that's all I can say, and I bet you're thinking it too, Father C. So please just grant me this one early Christmas present, and I'll never ask you for anything again, OOH, except maybe for Heather Mills to be unfortunately eaten alive by a pack of seal pups she tries to rescue in Canada. Yeh, that'd be awesome. :)

Love, [Katherine Hannaford]

Nicole Kidman Wedding Plans Revealed!

Nicole2 According to Star magazine, Nicole Kidman has been out and about wedding dress shopping for her impending nuptials with fiance Keith Urban.

You can read about weddings at the cathedral by clicking here.

The magazine spy also says: "Nicole wants a huge wedding this time round. She and Tom got married in a private mansion, so she wants to do it big this time. Her adopted kids Isabella and Connor, will be at the ceremony."

Bizarre wedding chit chat, as the magazine also claims Nicole recently said of ex-husband Tom Cruise: "I loved him and I still do." Who'll make it up the aisle first? [Toni Kelly]

Cheryl Tweedy & Ashley Cole: Wedding Crisis.

Chezza Those folks over at Who Ate All The Bratwurst? might think the impending football World Cup is important or something, but I firmly disagree. The tournament is putting the wedding of Ashley and Cheryl in danger as the couple struggle to plan both a huge bash whilst Ashley tries to stay fit and injury free! It's just not on. Football before a huge celeb wedding? Who do I complain to?

Cheryl is said to be finding it difficult to plan the end-of-July nuptials with everything so up in the air with the World Cup. Ashley has only recently returned to the game following a long-term injury, so the pressure is on for him to be fit. A friend of Cheryl told Closer magazine: "She's looking forward to the World Cup and will be in Germany to support Ashley. She's desperate to make this wedding happen but doesn't want to end up rushing the plans. She wants Ashley to concentrate on the football and not worry about the wedding. She would prefer to cancel the bash if it means they can do it properly at the end of the summer."

Now that's going above and beyond fiancee-ing! [Toni Kelly]

Wedding Bells for Kylie Minogue and Olivier Martinez.

Kylie_1 New magazine reports that Kylie Minogue is due to marry handsome French boyfriend Olivier Martinez on their very own paradise island this year. The news was leaked by Martinez's mother, Rosemarie, and tells of how the couple have already bought a property on French Island, south of Melbourne, and have now added acres of land around the area to protect their nuptials from prying eyes.

A neighbour of the soon-to-be-wed couple said: "It is an absolutely stunning spot. There are few places in the world that are more private and peaceful."

Best of luck to them! [Toni Kelly]

Sir Paul & Heather McCartney Deny Marriage Crisis.

Macca_1 We told you on Sunday that Sir Paul and Heather McCartney are reported to be going through marriage difficulties. The story appeared in the News of The World and claimed that they were spending a lot of time apart after a series of arguments.

Au contraire, say the McCartneys. Heather has publicly stated: "Paul and I are still very much together", reports new magazine. The reason for the separation - the couple were living 50 miles apart - is supposedly to protect Heather from paps, as she has recently undergone an operation on her amputated leg. "Some people have been trying to get pictures of me in a wheelchair," Heather said. "It's sick." Somehow, I don't think we've heard the last of this one. [Toni Kelly]

Paul McCartney & Heather Mills marriage in trouble.

Macca Paul McCartney and Heather Mills' marriage is said to be on the rocks after a string of huge arguments. The story broke in today's News of the World. The couple, who have been married for four years, are living apart and not even meeting when daughter Beatrice is taken from one house to the other.

There are no divorce rumours, but the vultures are bound to start circuling if the couple don't sort it out soon-ish. NOTW deemed the story big enough to splash with it on their front page. Sadly for Paul, if the couple do divorce, he's set to lose millions; he and Heather never signed a pre-nuptial agreement. Ooops. [Toni Kelly]

Darren Day & Fiancee Number Six.

Darren_1 I can't really believe I'm writing this, but Darren Day is engaged again, this time to soon-to-be-Emmerdale actress Stephanie Dooley. This is Day's sixth engagement, but the love rat has so far never made it up the aisle. He's blown a fortune on cocaine and is currently £350,000 in debt. It's also been revealed that ex-fiancee Suzanne Shaw - with whom he had a child - receives no maintenance payments from Day.

Stephanie's friends have apparently told her to think twice, but Stephanie has just said:  "Everyone warned me about his reputation. But he's my Prince Charming - loving, caring and a true gent."

'Deluded' seems like such a light word to use here... [Toni Kelly]
