Insecure Star P.Diddy


P. Diddy is insecure.

The rap mogul, who stars alongside Russell Brand in forthcoming movie ‘Get Him to the Greek’ was amazed to be asked to feature in an episode of ‘Inside the Actors Studio’ because he didn’t think his thespian talents were strong enough to be praised.

He said, “They have been calling me for the last three years to do it, and I was kind of nervous and said, ‘I’m not at that level.’

“I’m looking at Meryl Streep up there, and Martin Scorsese, Al Pacino and Denzel Washington and Chris Rock. They were saying they wanted to take it from a different perspective of somebody on the rise. I appreciated that. After doing Broadway and now with ‘Get Him to the Greek’ coming out… the time is right.

“I still have fears though, I still have insecurities.”

However, Diddy – who made his film debut in ‘Monster’s Ball’ in 2001 and appeared on the New York stage in a production of ‘A Raisin in the Sun’ in 2004, thinks things can only get better for him after showing his comedic talents as a record label boss in ‘Get Him to the Greek’.

He added to MTV News, “It was definitely challenging, but I had a breakthrough in this new movie. I have to admit, I just let go and I showed my a*s, people! It’s funny.

“I’m not the greatest actor in the world, but I’m on my way to greatness!”



Russell Brand Wants Heroin To Save Music Industry


Russell Brand thinks heroin would save the music industry.

The British comedy actor claims heavy drug use could help the world avoid the “awful music” teen stars such as Justin Bieber are releasing.

Russell, who has overcome heroin addiction, told Rolling Stone magazine, “The top of the hit parade would look very different if teenyboppers were exposed to heroin.

“It would weed a lot of them out. I don’t think Justin Bieber could handle Syd Barrett from Pink Floyd’s habit.

“A lot of people in their journey to rehab overdose, and then, perhaps, we could be spared their awful music. It’s Darwinian. It’s the law of natural selection.”

His suggestion could upset fiancee Katy Perry, who has previously professed a love for 16-year-old Justin.

The ‘I Kissed A Girl’ singer recently admitted she wanted to adopt the ‘Baby’ hitmaker.

Writing to Russell on her twitter page, Katy posted a picture of Justin and said, “Hey… I know we’re getting hitched + all but I was wondering if u’d be open 2 the idea of adopting 1st? I have an idea… Whata bout this cute lil one? I’m sure he could use a great home!!! (sic)”



Pic: Kate Hudson’s new boobs?

Kate Hudson has always openly acknowledged her tiny breasts.

“I have small breasts, obviously,” Kate Hudson proudly proclaimed at the 2002 Golden Globes. “It’s nice to be able to wear a plunging neckline and have it be elegant.”

The willowy actress has a slight frame, and has previously chosen outfits that show off her gamine figure. But now US magazine is speculating that Hudson, daughter of Goldie Hawn, has left the itty bitty titty committee after she was photographed poolside in Miami sporting slightly larger breasts.

Going by the picture, if Hudson had work done, it was slight and subtle. They’re certainly not like Heidi Montag’s giant plastic monstrosities, and I’ve seen smaller-breasted friends get the same result with properly fitted wonderbras and “chicken cutlets.”

US quoted an unnamed source about the possibility that Hudson had her tatas enhanced:

Explains another source, “Kate makes jokes about her boobs, but her chest has always been one of her biggest insecurities.”

US also contacted Hudson’s rep, who declined to comment on the boob situation.



Ashton Kutcher snubbed Demi Moore


Ashton Kutcher snubbed Demi Moore when they first met.

The ‘Ghost’ actress admits she took a shine to her future husband as soon as she saw him at a party in 2003 but claims the actor had his sights set on someone else.

She said, “The first night I met him he didn’t have two words to say to me – he had a singular focus and it was on somebody else.”

However, Demi – who, at 47, is 15 years Ashton’s senior, says her fortunes changed two weeks later after she ended up at a party in Ashton’s hotel room.

Demi – who has three daughters, Rumer, Scout and Tallulah, with ex-husband Bruce Willis – says she left the suite to phone her children, which won Ashton over.

She added on US TV show ‘Live with Regis and Kelly’ : “All of a sudden the door to the hotel opened and he said, ‘That is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard,’ and closed the door. And I said, ‘OK, this is somebody different.’ ”

The pair then got to know each other through a series of text messages and Demi believes it provided them with the foundations for a great marriage.

She added, “And now we’ve been together seven years.”

Demi recently revealed how she never thought she could love anyone as much as she loves Ashton.

She said, “My husband is an amazing human being and I’m really almost speechless when I try to describe him. There aren’t words to wrap up the amazing gift we’ve found in each other. I have experienced a love that I truly only imagined. We just fit. He loves me – and the best thing is that he loves me at my most vulnerable, at my most unglamorous and at my least attractive in always, not just physically. I feel wanted.”



Avril Lavigne Declared Love For Brody Jenner


Avril Lavigne drunkenly declared her love for Brody Jenner while singing karaoke.

The singer, who filed for divorce from her husband, Sum 41 rocker Deryck Whibley, last October – has only been dating ‘The Hills’ actor since February but appears to be completely smitten after grabbing the microphone at the Bank nightclub in Las Vegas on Sunday night, April 11, and telling him she was in love.

A source told the New York Post newspaper, “Lavigne and Jenner were having a blast. They were taking shots with friends including Olympic snowboarder Shaun White, grabbing the microphone, shouting, ‘Jager shots’ and making the crowd go wild.”

The 25-year-old pop star even shouted, “I love you, Brody!” on the microphone.

The couple, who are yet to confirm they’re officially an item, then sang the Black Eyed Peas’ hit single ‘I Gotta Feeling’ together.

As another sign of their increasing devotion, Avril and Brody recently had matching lighting bolt tattoos.

A source said, “They showed up to the opening of Mario Barth King Ink and requested the same tats. They were really excited about it. They held hands openly and were kissing in a corner. Brody didn’t leave Avril’s side all night.”

Avril had her tattoo on her forearm, whereas Brody, 26, opted for his to be behind his ear.

Since splitting from husband Deryck, who she was married to for three years, Avril has been romantically linked with actor Wilmer Valderrama and oil heir Brandon Davis.

Brody was most recently dating Playboy playmate Jayde Nicole, but they split in December.



Brooke Mueller Set to Divorce Charlie Sheen


Brooke Mueller wants to divorce Charlie Sheen.

The ‘Two and a Half Men’ star, who married Brooke in 2008 and has 13-month-old twins Max and Bob, has been accused of cheating on his wife with lingerie model Angelina Tracy, and even wore a fake moustache to try and avoid unwanted attention during their meetings.

The allegations are seemingly the last straw for Brooke, who claims she was assaulted by Charlie last Christmas Day, December 25, and she is now ready to call time on their union.

A friend told E! Online, “Brooke is now seriously considering divorce.

“Brooke is not surprised by anything Charlie does at this point – she is doing what she needs to do to be a good mother to Max and Bob and she can’t control what Charlie does.

“She is in a really good place right now, and her main concern is the kids.”

However, a spokesperson for Charlie – who is currently being treated for alcoholism at a rehabilitation clinic – is adamant nothing romantic is going on between the 44-year-old actor and Angelina and they only know each other through someone Charlie is in rehab with.

The spokesperson said, “The woman in question is the sister of one of Sheen’s campmates and Sheen was only responding to a 12th step call.

“Since Sheen knew he was being followed and how this would look, he wore the moustache as a tongue-in-cheek disguise gesture.”

Charlie and Brooke’s relationship has been in turmoil since the alleged attack over the 2009 festive period.

The actor faces three charges – felony menacing, misdemeanour third degree assault and misdemeanour criminal mischief – stemming from allegations made by Brooke that he held her down and put a knife to her throat during an argument.

Following the apparent incident, real estate agent Brooke is currently seeking treatment for alcohol and crack cocaine addiction.



Video: Whitney Houston manages to make “I Will Always Love You” suck even more

Whitney Houston, Dolly Parton called and she’s taking her song back.

A few months after outraged Aussies streamed en masse out of Whitney Houston gigs in Sydney and Brisbane, a Taiwanese boy put Houston’s current vocals to shame with an amazing cover of the (admittedly pretty awful already) Whitney Houston version of Dolly Parton’s “I Will Always Love You.” Rumors that Houston’s skills are gone for good have been circulating for a while, but the clip below seems to bear that out. Crack- whack, indeed.

I’ve always found her music to be intolerable, but even to a non-fan, the caliber of the performance below is shockingly bad.



Melissa and Tammy Etheridge split

Reps for Melissa Etheridge have announced the singer’s split from her partner of nine years, Tammy Lynn Michaels.

Etheridge and Michaels exchanged vows in California in 2004, but were never legally married in the state. Melissa’s rep released a statement to People Magazine about the split:

“Melissa and Tammy Etheridge are saddened to announce that they are now separated,” Melissa’s rep tells PEOPLE exclusively.

The former couple add in a statement: “We ask for consideration and respect for our family as we go through this difficult period.”

The couple have a son, Miller, and a daughter, Johnnie Rose. Etheridge has two children- Bailey, 13, and Beckett, 11- with former partner Julie Cypher. The high profile breakup is not the only big celebrity split over the past few days. Dueling spouses Larry King and Shawn Southwick have just filed for divorce, and Aussie actor Mel Gibson has broken up with his new girlfriend and baby momma, Oksana Grigorieva.



Mel Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva Split Up


Mel Gibson has split from girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva.

The ‘Braveheart’ actor and the Russian singer reportedly “drifted apart” but have pledged to remain friends for the sake of their five-month-old daughter Lucia.

A source told People magazine, “They just drifted apart. They’re both working hard on their careers and trying to raise a sweet baby together. They’re still friends and they’ll both raise Lucia together.”

Despite reports insisting they are still on good terms, it has also been claimed 54-year-old Mel ended their relationship following a huge row.

According to National Enquirer magazine, 40-year-old Oksana accused her partner of “cheating” and “lashed out” over his reluctance to marry.

A source said, “After the row Mel told Oksana it was over.”

Mel has previously admitted he didn’t intend to marry the brunette beauty.

He said recently, “She’d make anyone a wonderful wife, but for the moment, she’s a mother.

Mel has seven children with estranged wife Robyn, who filed for divorce last May.

Following the legal proceedings, it emerged the couple had been separated for some time and the actor was in a relationship with Oksana, who has 12-year-old son Alexander with ex-boyfriend Timothy Dalton.



Jon Voight Praises Angelina Jolie’s Children


Jon Voight has praised his daughter Angelina Jolie’s children as “spectacular”.

The Oscar-winning actor played the proud grandparent at the Hollywood premiere of comedy movie ‘Kick-Ass’ earlier this week, where he spoke lovingly about his six grandchildren who are raised by his actress daughter and her partner Brad Pitt.

He told UsMagazine.com, “The grandkids are quite spectacular, as everybody knows.”

The 71-year-old star reconciled with Angelina in February after several years estrangement and met with the couple and their children – adopted tots Maddox, eight, five-year-old Zahara and Pax, six, and three biological children, Shiloh, three, and 19-month-old twins Knox and Vivienne – in Venice, Italy.

Discussing the meeting, he added, “It’s nice to have something that’s positive!”

Although Angelina and Jon’s meeting came as a shock to many, the pair has been working on the reconciliation for a while.

At the time, Jon said, “Angie and I have been in contact on the phone and by email for some time now.

“We’ve been working towards a full reconciliation for a while. Angie had to feel it was the right time to bring me into the lives of her and the kids and after some work she decided the moment had arrived.

“I hope I get to see them again soon. I want to spend as much time with them as possible.”
