Prince William branded a thickwit by Morrissey


Britain's Prince William has been branded a "thickwit" by singer Morrissey for going on a hunting trip.
The 31-year-old royal and his younger brother Harry, 29, went shooting in Spain this month before William and their father, Prince Charles, launched a campaign to end the illegal hunting of animals such as tigers, rhinos and elephants.
In an open letter to the Royal Family on Morrissey's fansite True To You, the star attacks William and Harry for going on the trip and accuses them of hypocrisy.
He writes: "One day prior to giving a public plea on behalf of animal welfare (!), Prince William is to be found in Spain (with Prince Harry) shooting and killing as many deer and boar as they possibly can! (sic)
"Although William's speech (no doubt written by his publicity aides at Clarence House) will concentrate on endangered species, William is too thickwit to realize that animals such as tigers and rhino are only driven to near extinction because people who are precisely like himself and his brother have shot them off the map - all in the name of sport and slaughter. Whenever you shoot an animal in the head the outcome is usually the same: death. (sic"
The 54-year-old singer is a committed vegetarian and has campaigned for animal rights for many years. He previously mocked the Royal Family in a song called 'The Queen Is Dead'.
He added: "The rationalists amongst us, who are never allowed to speak, are intelligent enough to realize that endangered species are dying out only because of people like William and Harry, and, for this we can only pray to God that their hunting guns backfire in their faces."

Man jailed for plotting to kill Prince Harry


A man who admitted plotting to kill Britain's Prince Harry has been jailed for three years.
Convicted criminal Ashraf Islam, 31, disagreed with the work of the Armed Forces and planned to kill Prince Harry, who served 77 days on the front line in the Afghanistan war.
According to BBC News, Judge Richard McGregor-Johnson called the plot "vague and unlikely to succeed" at London's Isleworth Crown Court but said Islam presented a risk to the public.
The criminal, who had been living in west London but had no permanent address, was arrested on May 23 last year when he handed himself into police, just 24 hours after soldier Lee Rigby was murdered in Woolwich.
Islam, a convert to Islam formerly known as Mark David Townley, has previous convictions for dishonesty and for involvement in an attempted robbery.
He said he had the "moral right to judge" and planned to kill the 29-year-old royal because he served in the military and hand "blood on his hands".
Judge McGregor-Johnson said in court: "This was not a threat made in isolation.
"The examination of your computer revealed you conducted research on his (Prince Harry's) whereabouts and intentions. You had given the matter considerable thought."
Prince Harry also trained to be a Apache Helicopter with the Army Air Corps but is now taking up an army office job and will become a Staff Officer at HQ London District, which organises ceremonial events such as the Trooping of the Colour and state visits.

Prince Charles to visit Saudi Arabia


Britain's Prince Charles will make an official visit to Saudi Arabia later this month.
Clarence House has announced the royal's four-day trip to the Middle East begins next Monday (17.02.14) and comes less than a year since he last toured Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
Sir John Jenkins, the UK's ambassador to Saudi Arabia, said: "Our two kingdoms share a long friendship, going back to the foundation of the modern Saudi state. Continuity of personal relationships, essential if we are to understand each other better, have been central to this.
"His Royal Highness' second visit to the kingdom in my time here as ambassador exemplifies our wish to engage at the most senior levels and our determination to sustain the personal touch."
He continued: "At a time of enormous turmoil and human agony in the Middle East, seen today perhaps most acutely in Syria, the Prince's advocacy of interfaith understanding and dialogue between communities is needed more than ever.
"His Majesty the King shares this deep concern. I know that he and His Royal Highness will have much to discuss about the need for reconciliation and their hopes for the region's future."
Charles first toured the nation in 1986 and this year will mark his 10th official trip to the country.


Taylor Swift performs with Emeli Sande


Taylor Swift was joined on stage by Emeli Sande at London's O2 Arena last night (10.02.14).
The country starlet surprised fans on her 'Red' tour as the pair launched into a rendition of Emeili's hit 'Next To Me' and Taylor described the singer as "heavenly."
She told the crowd: "I was thinking about playing the O2 and the last time I played it. Do you remember the BRIT Awards last year? I had a great time and I got to meet one of my favourite artists and I watched her clean up at the BRIT Awards. Then I got this idea she could come out and play for you. So what do you think about Emeli Sande coming out to play a song for you tonight?"
The 23-year-old beauty looked emotional as she took to the piano to play 'All Too Well' and tore through a number of other hits before performing 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together'.
After the gig, Taylor took to Twitter to thank her fans and Emeli, she wrote: 'Tonight @emelisande surprised our London crowd with 'Next to Me'!! SHE IS SO HEAVENLY. I've had the best time here. Last show tomorrow....'
Taylor is currently performing the UK leg of her 'Red' Tour and her last gig will be tonight held again at the O2 Arena in London.
To coincide with her residency at the venue, the British Music Experience - which is situated inside the O2 - are showcasing select items from Taylor's wardrobe alongside photographs by Christie Goodwin in a pop-up exhibition.
Admission to 'Taylor Swift: A Photo Experience' is included within the price of a museum ticket, and costs just £4 to ticket holders for her O2 shows during the duration of her residency.
The exhibition runs until 23 March.

Sandra Bullock: ‘Gravity one of best filming experiences’


Sandra Bullock enjoyed "one of the best filming experiences" ever while making 'Gravity'.
The 49-year-old actress, who has been nominated for an Oscar Award for female lead Dr. Ryan Stone in the sci-fi thriller, admits that she enjoyed working on Alfonso Cuarón's latest film because of the support she received.
Speaking at the annual Academy Awards Nominees Luncheon in Beverly Hills yesterday (10.02.14), she said: "I worked with the nicest, kindest, most patient group of people who all had a tremendous amount riding on them because of new technology, unknown waters.
"It should have been a very stressful situation, but everybody was so supportive that I had one of the best filming experiences I've ever had."
Cate Blanchett, who has also been nominated for Best Actress for 'Blue Jasmine', stars as trophy wife Jeanette Francis, known as Jasmine in the film and confessed she wasn't able to keep any of the designer outfits which she wore on set.
She said: "They [the outfits] all had to go back at midnight. I think the entire costume budget was less than the Hermes bag, which was also borrowed."
Amy Adams, who is nominated for 'American Hustle', is anticipating the award ceremony which will take place on March 2 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood and insists she'd like to dress to accommodate her own style when she attends the bash.
She added: "Sometimes I feel like I am dressing in costume on the red carpet, and this year I want to feel like myself. So I guarantee when I am on the red carpet this year, you can know that's a dress I would wear. It's not a character's dress."

Helen Flanagan expecting proposal on Valentine’s Day


Helen Flanagan is expecting a proposal on Valentine's Day (14.02.14).
The former 'Coronation Street' actress is hoping her footballer boyfriend, Scott Sinclair, 24, will finally pop the question on the most romantic day of the year as part of their plans to start a family as a married couple.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Helen is desperate to have a baby but she wants to be sure that Scott is committed to her first. She'd like to be married before having kids, especially as her mum doesn't want her to have a baby out of wedlock."
It's thought the pressure is on for Scott to prove his commitment to Helen - following their bitter breakup last year after the West Bromwich midfielder allegedly cheated on her - and he is ready to tie the knot sooner rather than later.
The insider explained: "Hel told Scott she wants to be pregnant before the end of the year so the pressure is on. He isn't really that bothered about marriage but he knows how much it means to her and is ready to step up."
If Scott decides to pop the question, he won't be left disappointed with insiders claiming Helen, 23, wouldn't turn down his offer.
A source added: "It's safe to say there's little to no chance she'd refuse, especially on Valentine's Day."

Davina McCall has ‘dark moments’ during Sport Relief triathlon


Davina McCall has had "dark moments" while she battles to complete her seven-day Sport Relief challenge.
The 46-year-old TV presenter is in the midst of a gruelling 500 mile triathlon for the charity - which will see her cycling, running and swimming from Edinburgh to London - and she admits there are times throughout the day where she fears she can't go on.
She told The Sun newspaper: "I have moments where I go dark and I feel very hopeless and I feel like I can't go on but different people pick me up at different times.
"I feel like I am being carried through this challenge but it has been pretty hard.
"There are three or four times a day when I think I have got to stop and I don't think I can finish it."
The brunette beauty collapsed yesterday (10.02.14) due to suspected hypothermia after she completed swimming the length of Lake Windermere.
Davina's husband Matthew Robertson rushed to her side after hearing the news she'd been knocked unconscious and managed to boost her morale.
Davina explained: "What's amazing is that Matthew saw how the swim went and spoke to my mum and dad who are here with me and said, 'I am driving up there.'
"I was so unbelievably pleased to see him. He has picked me up and given me a huge buzz."
The 'Got to Dance' host recovered quickly with the help of a hot beverage and some food and hopped on her bike for the next leg of her challenge.
