The Wanted ‘shafted’ by Max George


The Wanted feel "shafted" by Max George.
The 'Walks Like Rihanna' group are set to go their separate ways following their 'Word of Mouth' tour later this year and in the wake of Max's confession that tensions have been high within the band for some time, it's believed his bandmates Tom Parker, Nathan Sykes, Jay McGuiness and Siva Kaneswaran are upset by his behaviour.
A source close to Tom told new! magazine: "Not only has he sold his story but there are deep-rooted problems within the band that he's the source of, which have been ongoing for a while."
Max admitted in a recent interview that the band's personal lives - including their high-profile relationships - had disrupted the harmony within the group, and claimed he didn't get along with Siva's fiancee Nareesha McCaffrey.
Despite tensions within The Wanted, the teen heartthrobs' farewell tour will still go ahead in March.
The insider added: "Max feels bad for selling his story and is desperately trying to stay in the boys' good books, so there's no way he wouldn't do the tour. He also needs the money."

Kristen Stewart prefers the natural look


Kristen Stewart prefers looking natural.
The 'Twilight' actress has been made the face of fashion house Balenciaga's new perfume Rosabotanica and sports an exotic flower sash and smoky eye make-up in the adverts, but claims she prefers a more natural look when she's off duty.
She said: "I never wear a lot of make-up. That was never someting I liked. But black eyeliner is always in my bag.
"I like the messy look. I always wash my face before I go to bed, but I never clean around my eyes and that looks great in the morning."
Fashion designer and creative director of Louis Vuitton, Nicolas Ghesquière, has also chosen the 23-year-old star for his new campaign and she admits she likes to inspire fashion.
She told German VOGUE: "I like to be a muse. You meet so many talented people who inspire me. I like the creative energy at photo shoots."
Kristen - who will next appear on screens in 'Camp X-Ray' as a guard at Guantanamo Bay - also revealed that she only achieves her stunning red carpet looks with the help of stylists.
She said: "I really like getting dressed up for photoshoots or movie premieres. And I like bold eye make-up - if it suits the event. But to be honest, everything you see on the red carpet is down to the hard work of stylists. In my private life I prefer a natural look."

Jennifer Garner ’emotional’ about returning to work


Jennifer Garner was "emotional" about going back to work so soon after giving birth.
The 41-year-old actress - who has children Violet, eight, Seraphina, five and 23 month old Samuel with her husband Ben Affleck - found it tough starring in Oscar-nominated drama 'Dallas Buyers Club' while she was still nursing her young son, and was anxious about having to keep people waiting on set so she could feed him.
She told Radio Times magazine: "I was very nervous - it's hard to leave your baby at home and go to work. And I was a nursing mum, so I was extra emotional about it. By, by the end, it made me remember how much I like my job and that I have to keep things more in balance.
"I've nursed each of my babies and I've worked during that first year of having them. So, if we talk brass tacks here, that means I've had to work with a pump and feed the baby at lunch. I'm versed in how to say, 'In about ten minutes I'm going to need to disappear', but on this movie we moved so quickly, there was never time.
"So everyone had to sit and wait for me, which made it emotional because I hated making a crew wait, but I couldn't start weaning my baby just because of a movie."
The '13 Going on 30' star admits her children only have a basic understanding of what their parents' careers involve because they're too young.
Jennifer said: "They've always had some kind of sense of it. My daughter turned two while I was doing a play in New York, and if you asked her what I did she'd say, 'She has her hair and make-up done and takes bows on stage.' That's because I'd put her down for a nap during matinees and she'd wake up just in time for curtain call."


Casey Batchelor: Peter Andre romance ‘fizzled out’


Casey Batchelor's romance with Peter Andre "fizzled out".
The 'Celebrity Big Brother' beauty enjoyed a fling with the singer-turned-reality TV star before romancing Lee Ryan on the Channel 5 reality show and she says the brief relationship didn't last because they didn't have chemistry.
She said: "Pete was a lovely guy, he was very funny. It just fizzled out between us. We became friends. There's no hard feelings.
"It was so long ago now. I just think he is a very genuine person. I remember him being very funny and charming. He doesn't have a bad bone in his body."
The 29-year-old star met the father-of-three - who recently welcomed daughter Amelia with his fiancee Emily MacDonagh - through a friend and says they enjoyed casual dinner dates.
Casey explained: "I went to his coffee shop with him, we went for dinner ... we just went on general dates, nothing out of the ordinary."
Casey also revealed the 40-year-old star - who has son Junior, eight, and daughter Princess Tiaamii, six, with ex-wife Katie Price - often paid her compliments on her looks.
She told new! magazine: "He just said I was beautiful."

Eva Mendes pulled over by police


Eva Mendes was allegedly caught using her cell phone while driving.
The 'Training Day' star narrowly avoided a ticket when she was pulled over by a police officer on a bicycle in Los Angeles after he spotted her chatting into the device in her grey Lexus SUV.
The 39-year-old actress was reportedly given a piece of paper but apparently talked her way out of a ticket, as a law enforcement source told gossip website TMZ.com that they have no record of a citation.
The brunette beauty has had a difficult time recently as rumours surfaced she split from her boyfriend Ryan Gosling after almost three years together over Christmas.
But a spokesperson for the actress told E! News the breakup reports were just rumours.
The '2 Fast 2 Furious' star also sparked speculation she was pregnant when she refused to go through an airport security scan recently.
But her publicist said: "She has never gone through the scanners at the airport; she has always elected to be hand-checked instead."
Eva previously admitted she had no desire to become a mother.
She said: "I'm certainly not thinking about being a mom. I can't imagine it. I'm too selfish."

Philip Seymour Hoffman remembered as a ‘lovely person’


Philip Seymour Hoffman's priest will remember him as a "lovely person."
Fr. James Martin S.J., who helped the late actor prepare for his role as Father Flynn in the 2008 movie 'Doubt' and presided over his funeral mass at the Church of Saint Ignatius Loyola in New York on Friday (07.02.14), following his death from an apparent heroin overdose last Sunday (0202.14), says the actor was "very down-to-earth" and "fun to be with."
The Jesuit priest told PEOPLE.com: "He was a lovely person, very down-to-earth. I learned about humility from him. He never put on airs. Whenever he talked about being in a movie, he would just say, 'Yeah, I got this job.' He would never say, 'I'm the lead.' Or 'I'm starring in 'Capote.' ' Then I'd read about it in the papers and learn what it was."
The duo, who first met in 2003, spent a lot of time in the church together when the priest taught the Oscar-winner how to celebrate mass for his role in 'Doubt'.
He added: "He was really fun to be with. He was so intent on getting everything right. I remember he asked if a priest would have 3 x 5 cards during a homily. Small details. He listened to what I had to say, but he also knew his craft. When you watched him act, you got a sense of what the word 'vocation' really means. He was born to do this."
The late actor's family members, including his estranged partner, Mimi O'Donnell, and their three children, Cooper, 10, Tallulah, seven, and Willa, five, were among the 400 mourners at his funeral mass.
Many of his famous friends, including Meryl Streep, Diane Keaton, Julianne Moore and Cate Blanchett, also attended the ceremony.

Blake Lively indulges on Southern food


Blake Lively indulged on rich Southern food during a three-hour feast in Winthrop, Massachusetts.
The former 'Gossip Girl' star, who loves to cook and is preparing to launch her own lifestyle brand, took a break from filming a sex trafficking TV special for PBS to tuck into a huge family-style lunch at Blackstrap BBQ restaurant with her camera crew on Tuesday (04.02.14).
The eatery's owner Kate Economides told E! News: "Blake was so down to earth, just like a girl next door. You can tell she is a very caring person, using her celebrity status to do good."
She added: "Whenever I came to the table, Blake made it a point to look me in the eyes and say thank you."
The 27-year-old 'Savages' actress, who is married to Ryan Reynolds, was extremely complimentary of the food, which included smoked chicken, corn fritters, fried pickles, onion rings, collard greens, baked beans and corn bread, and told the chef she "nailed it" before leaving.
The blonde beauty previously admitted she doesn't diet and work out to stay in shape.
She said: "I don't really need a personal trainer, or watch what I eat. I can't start the day without a hot chocolate, or finish it without a few squares of dark chocolate. It's good for my mood!"

Elizabeth Olsen hates ‘awkward’ sex scenes


Elizabeth Olsen finds sex scenes "incredibly awkward."
The 'In Secret' star, who is dating 32-year-old model Boyd Holbrook, tried to create a safe environment with her co-star, Oscar Isaac, before filming intimate moments for the new movie, in which they play secret lovers in 1860's Paris.
The actress told E! News: "It's incredibly awkward. But you have to feel safe and you have to feel respected and you just provide that for each other. You create a safe environment. In those situations you're just thinking about what's the choreography her? It's like a dance in a way. You get it done."
The 'Kill Your Darlings' star also had to wear corsets in the film alongside her co-star Jessica Lang but they weren't as uncomfortable as she thought they would be.
She said: "The corsets are kind of fun. The most uncomfortable thing is figuring out how to sit in between scenes. Jessica [Lange] and I would just prop up our legs on a table and just be like this huge hoop scoop reclined. It's not that uncomfortable."
Elizabeth is set to turn 25 on February 16 and is planning a very artistic celebration.
She said: "My friends and my boyfriend are throwing me a painting party! We're painting."
She added: "I'm terrible. That's why it sounds like fun."

George Clooney isn’t feuding with Leonardo DiCaprio


George Clooney isn't feuding with Leonardo DiCaprio.
'The Monuments Men' actor, who made headlines last year when he subtly dissed the 'Wolf of Wall Street' star during an interview, insists he has no issues with the 39-year-old actor.
The 52-year-old star told ABC News' 'Popcorn with Peter Travers': "Somebody made it like there was a big fight. I've known Leo a long time and somebody just made that a fight."
The former 'E.R.' star's publicist was forced to defend him after George suggested Leonardo surrounded himself with the wrong type of people when recalling a basketball game they once played together in Cabo San Lucas.
He said: "The discrepancy between their game and how they talked about their game made me think of how important it is to have someone in your life to tell you what's what. I'm not sure if Leo has someone like that."
His spokesperson later insisted: "The Leo comments were all made in fun about basketball. Not about Leo's life."
Meanwhile, George is disappointed he isn't a good singer, as he assumed he would be a talented vocalist like his legendary late aunt Rosemary Clooney, and claims he only discovered his inability to hold a tune when he was filming 'O Brother, Where Art Thou?' in 2000.
He said: "I went into a recording studio and T-Bone Burnett and Joel and Ethan [Coen] assumed that because I was Rosemary's nephew that I would be a great singer, and I kind of assumed that too. Then we got into the recording studio and I sang 'Man of Constant Sorrow' with all the music playing and I finished and looked up and there's that glass booth with all of them in it and no one would look me in the eye.
"Then they played it back and it was pretty bad. It was so bad that I made them destroy it."

Clint Eastwood saves choking victim


Clint Eastwood saved a man from choking to death.
The 83-year-old actor and director jumped into action and performed the Heimlich manoeuvre on Steve John, the executive director of Pro-Am, when a piece of cheese got lodged in his throat at a dinner honouring volunteers at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am golfing tournament in California on Wednesday night (05.02.14).
The 'Million Dollar Baby' filmmaker told the local Carmel Pine Cone newspaper: "I saw that look in his eyes and saw that look of panic people have when they see their life passing before their eyes.
"It looked bad...I gave him three good jolts and that got it out. And then I made him drink a big glass of water with a bunch of lemon squeezed in it."
The legendary star, who lives in picturesque Carmel-by-the-Sea, admitted he had never performed the manoeuvre on anyone before the incident.
Steve added: "Clint saved my life. We were just talking. A piece of cheese went in my mouth and suddenly I couldn't breathe. It was bad as it could have been."
"Clint came up behind me and he knew exactly what to do. He did the Heimlich manoeuvre and he lifted me right off the ground. He's strong! The cheese popped out and I was fine."
