Johnny Depp advising Harry Styles on fame


Johnny Depp has been giving Harry Styles advice on how to deal with fame.
The 50-year-old actor - who recently got engaged to actress Amber Heard - has found an unusual friend in 20-year-old One Direction star Harry Styles, and has even been offering him advice on how to deal with super-stardom.
A source revealed: "Harry and Johnny have become good mates lately. Johnny has been on call to give Harry advice and, if he can, help him cope with the pressures of being a superstar."
Although 'The Lone Ranger' star met Harry and his bandmates - Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and Liam Payne - at his mansion in Los Angeles last summer, the pair are said to have really hit it off when they became neighbours in Hampstead, London, late last year.
The source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Harry is in total awe of Johnny and looks on him as his ultimate hero, while Johnny sees Harry as a younger version of himself.
"Each of them has had to deal with being one of the most famous people in the world and have a lot more in common than you might expect."

Simon Cowell to be Justin Bieber’s neighbour


Simon Cowell is planning to buy a house next door to Justin Bieber.
The 'X Factor' boss is said to be in talks with an estate agent to buy a six-bedroom, £5.4 million home in Los Angeles for his new family, but the house is in the gated community of Calabasas known as 'The Oaks' where the 'Baby' singer is known for throwing wild parties at his own mansion.
A local resident said: "You have to wonder whether Simon's people are even aware that Bieber lives in the neighbourhood.
"If he does move here with his family, he should know that the kid is a non-stop menace when he's in residence, throwing all night parties with his pals and generally wreaking havoc."
Incidents at the 20-year-old pop stars home include arrests for drug possession and throwing eggs at neighbours properties, but Simon - who recently welcomed his first child, Eric, with girlfriend Lauren Silverman - is said to be unaware of who his future neighbour could be.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "He was apparently very excited when they sent him the details of The Oaks estate.
"But no one mentioned the fact - perhaps because they didn't know - that Justin Bieber will be one of his neighbours."

Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones’ marriage troubles over


Michael Douglas' mother claims his marriage troubles with Catherine Zeta-Jones are over.
The 69-year-old actors' mother Diana Douglas has opened up about her son's brief separation from his wife Catherine Zeta-Jones and says the pair are now firmly back together and over their marriage woes.
She said: "They are together. I knew they would work it out. They're both gentle people, not hysterical. They're always very affectionate and easy with each other. I figured the more everybody stayed out of it the better."
'Red 2' actress Catherine's admission that she suffers from bipolar disorder - which has led to her spending time in rehab fighting depression - was said to be one of the reasons for the couple's brief separation, and Diana admits that she thinks her son must have found it difficult to support his wife.
She told The Sun newspaper: "I knew she was dealing with depression ... It's probably not an easy thing to understand if you don't have it yourself. But he's and understanding person."
Diana also spoke out about Michael's battle with tongue cancer - which he revealed after having first announced he had throat cancer - and admits that he dealt with his illness in his own way, without the help of his family.
She added: "He kept it very much to himself. He didn't tell any of the family. It was a private thing.
"He gets depressed like everybody does at times. But he's a very pragmatic person. He isn't inclined to dwell on things."

Justin Lee Collins apologises for ‘disgusting behaviour’


Justin Lee Collins has apologised for his "disgusting behaviour" towards ex-girlfriend Anna Larke.
The 39-year-old former TV personality was convicted of harassing his ex-girlfriend and sentenced to 140 hours of unpaid work 17 months ago after a court was played a recording on an argument between the pair in which he refers to Anna as a "f*****g slag" and "dirty, vile whore", and he's now spoken out to take responsibility for his actions.
He said: "I will regret what I said for the rest of my life. It was irrational, bizarre and disgusting. I've tried to make sense of it but I can't.
"I am entirely to blame for the awful things that came out of my mouth during that argument. But at that point in my life I was a troubled soul."
Justin - who rose to fame as the host of Channel 4's 'Friday Night Project' alongside Alan Carr - was working on the west end show 'Rock of Ages' at the time of his arrest and he claims it felt "surreal" when he appeared in court.
He told The Sun newspaper: "I couldn't believe what was happening. Even when I was in the dock, it didn't feel like it was me on trial. It was surreal. I was thinking, 'How have I got here?'"
Speaking about his arguments with PR worker Anna, he added: "It was an absolute car crash of a relationship. Some of the arguments were deeply personal, embarrassing and mortifying to relive.
"To have my mum read about all these things was terrible."
Although Justin hasn't worked in TV since the trial, he claims he's still friends with Alan Carr and former Radio 1 DJ Chris Evans and he's now "in a relationship and really happy."

Sam Faiers and Joey Essex back together


Sam Faiers and Joey Essex are back together.
The 23-year-old 'The Only Way is Essex' star recently revealed that she has been diagnosed with Crohn's disease after suffering with a mystery illness for over a month, and she's now said to be back together with her former TOWIE star ex-boyfriend.
A source said: "Joey was devastated when he heard about Sam's condition and instantly wanted to be there for her.
"The situation has thrown them back together and they are now closer than ever."
It has been revealed however that Joey - who quit the ITV reality show last year for a stint in the 'I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here Jungle' - will not return to the show to play out his rekindled romance with Sam.
The source told The Sun newspaper: "Joey is not going to be returning to TOWIE so they are keen for their relationship to stay off the screen."
Meanwhile Sam has admitted that she is relieved now that she knows what was making her so ill but she's worried about the amount of weight she's lost.
She said: "I'm going to get [sister] Billie [Faiers] to get me some of those padded knickers.
"We spend all of our time wanting to lose weight but life's about being healthy."

Lea Michele: Cory Monteith helped make album


Lea Michele says Cory Monteith made "tons of notes" for her about her debut album.
The 'Glee' star's late boyfriend - who died of a drugs overdose in July 2013, before any of his girlfriend's music was ever released - helped her decide on a direction for her debut album and made lots of suggestions as to how it should sound.
Speaking about the recording process, she told Us Weekly magazine: "I'd sit with Cory and we'd jot down tons of notes about things we wanted to change. I was lucky to have such amazing love. This album is the story of my past two years."
Lea, 27, added singing on 'Glee' really helped her to get ready for her pop career, because they recorded so many versions of other people's songs for the show.
She added: "I've been singing since I was eight, but I really got hooked on the studio from 'Glee'. We've recorded 600 numbers now. I was ready."
After Cory's untimely passing, Lea went back and recorded one final song, 'You're Mine', which is dedicated to the actor.
Writing about the track on Twitter, she posted: "#YOUREMINE is my favorite song on #LOUDER. It's so special to me & its story is so close to my heart. (sic)"

Cate Blanchett has Oscar nerves


Cate Blanchett has "butterflies" in her stomach on the day of the Oscars.
The actress is up for her sixth Academy Award this year, after being nominated for Best Actress for her role in Blue Jasmine, and she acknowledges she will be particularly nervous on the day.
Cate - who previously won Best Supporting Actress for her role in 2004's 'The Aviator' - said: "A lot of effort goes into effortlessness of walking up that marathon red carpet. I wake up with butterflies in my stomach. You never know the outcome. It has been an extraordinary year in films, so to be at the banquet is a privilege."
Cate, 44, also admits if she was like her character in 'Blue Jasmine' - who loses her fortune and has to adapt to a normal life - she wouldn't have the same difficulties as those around her keep her grounded.
She told OK! magazine: "Fortunately I have the most extraordinarily supportive family and friends, and my identity is not based on either my work or any of this."
The Oscar Awards take place today (02.03.14).

Amy Adams ‘hit’ Bradley Cooper


Amy Adams feared she'd given Bradley Cooper a black eye filming 'American Hustle'.
The 39-year-old actress says she got so carried away shooting a violent scene in the 1970s-set crime caper that she hit her hunky co-star a little too hard.
She explained: "[Director] David [O. Russell] pushes his actors into a space where you don't really know what's going to happen. But in one scene I wish I hadn't let myself get caught up in that atmosphere.
"There's a scene where I was supposed to hit Bradley. I wasn't hitting him hard enough and David kept yelling, 'Hit him. Hit him.' And Bradley kept yelling, 'C'mon, hit me, hit me!' So I finally hit him, but I whacked him so hard that his face began to swell and I was crying because I thought I'd given him a black eye."
Despite the chaotic on-set moment, Amy has praised her 39-year-old co-star for being so encouraging to the cast and crew.
She told LOOK magazine: "He will do anything. Bradley's the cheerleader on set. He's like, 'Let's do this, come on, everybody!' He's my hero in this film."

Pixie Lott won’t stay friends with exes


Pixie Lott doesn't think it's healthy to stay friends with ex-boyfriends.
The 'Nasty' singer is currently loved up with her model boyfriend Oliver Cheshire and thinks part of the reason their romance is going so well is because she doesn't try to maintain relationships with any of her exes.
When asked if it's possible to stay friends with an ex, she said: "It's really hard, I think. I had a few flings before Oliver and we haven't stayed friends, but I don't know whether it would be healthy to anyway."
The 23-year-old blonde beauty also admitted that although it's difficult she has had to cut ties with friends in the past and claims it's all a part of getting older.
She said: "If a friend turns out to be someone that you don't like or can't agree with, sometimes that's when you should start questioning things. I think it's part of growing up and it happens to a lot of people."
Pixie feels like she takes her family and friends for granted and says if she was to do a good deed every day for a week it would be to appreciate them more.
She told Top of the Pops magazine: "Maybe I should ring my friends and family everyday. But then again, they might get annoyed with me telling them I love them all the time on the seventh day, ha-ha!"


Fergie’s son can sing


Fergie's son is already starting his singing career.
The 'Fergalicious' singer's son with Josh Duhamel, Axl - named after Guns 'N Roses singer Axl Rose - may only be six months old, but he's already following in his mother's footsteps.
She told Us Weekly Magazine: "When I sing, he'll look at me and laugh and try to chime in."
Josh added: "He makes the funniest sounds. He gets very proud of himself."
The family have temporarily relocated to Austin, Texas, and Josh, 41, is so pleased they can be together while he is filming new movie 'Lost in the Sun'.
He told Us Weekly magazine: "She's here with me now. She's staying with me. We've got a house and the whole thing. We're one happy family in Austin, Texas."
The couple, who usually live in Los Angeles, initially had a strict rule about not being apart for more than two weeks but Josh admits they don't need the rule any more because he wants to be with his family all the time.
He admitted: "I can't stay away from my boy for that long, or her."

Luisa Zissman introduces Dappy to parents


Luisa Zissman's parents have met Dappy.
The former 'Apprentice' star hit it off with the rapper in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house earlier this year and since then they have been spending time together.
The brunette beauty insists her parents have taken to the "sweet" former N-Dubz star, but the pair are yet to confirm their relationship.
Talking about a party they recently attended together, she said: "Well, it wasn't just us two, so it wasn't romantic. It was just me, my manager, Dappy's team and my parents - they get along very well with Dappy, they think he's very sweet."
She added to Britain's OK! magazine: "Dappy has met my parents and my dad loves him because he's Greek. So he's got my dad's seal of approval."
While Luisa hasn't met Dappy's parents she has been in touch with his famous cousin Tulisa Contostavlos and reckons the pair are similar.
He said: "Lulu hasn't met my mum but I know my family would love me to date her."
Luisa chimed: "I have met Dappy's cousin Tulisa. I love her!"
Dappy added: "They're so similar! When Lulu and I had that big row on 'Big Brother' it was because she reminds me so much of T."

Amanda Bynes returns to Twitter


Amanda Bynes has returned to Twitter.
The 'Easy A' actress, who completed three months of psychiatric treatment for both schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in December, posted her first message on the social networking site in months on Friday (28.02.14) to tell her fans that she loves them.
Clearly eager to start afresh after enrolling in the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in California, the 27-year-old actress deleted all her old tweets and wrote: "Hi everyone! I'm busy studying at @FIDM but I want to say I love you to my fans! Xoxo Amanda."
The 'What I Like About You' star was said to be "horrified" by crude comments she made about Drake on Twitter last year when she said she wanted the rapper to "murder my vagina," and posted dozens of positive and negative messages about him on an almost daily basis.
The 'Hairspray' actress reached a plea deal in her driving under the influence (DUI) case on Monday (24.02.14), after her lawyer managed to get the charges from 2012 dropped so she could plead no contest to a lesser charge of alcohol-related reckless driving.
Although Amanda escaped jail and a fine, she was placed on three years probation and ordered to attend three months of alcohol education classes.
