Robert Pattinson Blasts Gay Rumors

Robert PattinsonDON’T worry, girls — Robert Pattinson isn’t gay!

The hunky Twilight star, 23, has spoken out to set the record straight (pun intended!) on rumors about his sexuality.

In an interview with Britain’s The Times newspaper, Pattinson — who famously declared he’s “allergic” to vagina — insisted he’s “straight” and that he found the male-on-male sex scenes he had to perform in a film, Little Ashes, last year “strange”.

“I played Salvador Dali,” he said. “We were both straight, but he was Spanish, so much more confident about being naked and stuff, although when it comes down to it, it’s just as awkward with a girl, especially if you are straight and with a girl you don’t like…

“Anyway, Javier was really cool. After we had been pretending to have sex on this balcony in Barcelona, he was like, ‘We have such a strange job…’”

Recent reports claimed Rob has a secret girlfriend, Kelly Blakewell, who lives back home in London.

“They’ve been dating for months,” a source said earlier this week. “They’ve managed to keep it very hush-hush so the public continues to believe he’s dating his Twilight costar Kristen Stewart.

“Rob knows the whole ‘Robsten’ thing is critical to Twilight’s success. But he loves Kelly and is ready to introduce her to his fans.”

Vanessa Hudgens: ‘Beastly Was a Learning Curve’

Vanessa HudgensVANESSA Hudgens says she “learned a lot” about herself while filming her upcoming movie Beastly.

The High School Musical actress — who plays the role of Linda Taylor in the film based on the book by Alex Flinn — says she realized she needed to improve her acting skills.

“I learned a lot,” she said. “I learned a lot about myself, about the way I act, a lot of how I can improve myself.

“One thing me and director Daniel Barnz did was jump all over the place. We’d be on the same scene but it would almost be like a comedy show because he’d yell something out, like ‘angry’ and I’d do the lines angry.

“He’d yell ‘happy’, I’d do the lines happy, jumping from one place emotionally to another.

“It was an exercise and was a lot of fun. The best acting class you’ll ever get is actual work. It was fun.”

Sandra Bullock ‘Gets Support From Hugh Grant’

Sandra BullockSANDRA Bullock has been leaning on British actor Hugh Grant following revelations her husband Jesse James has been cheating on her with a chubby tattoo model.

Grant — who starred opposite Bullock in the 2002 movie Two Weeks Notice — has been calling the Oscar-winning actress on a daily basis to offer her support over the telephone.

“Hugh has been a huge support to her. He’s always thought extremely highly of Sandra and was really upset to hear about her troubles,” a source told Britain’s Sunday Mirror newspaper.

“Sandra’s shell-shocked by what’s happened — especially so soon after everything seemed so perfect after winning an Oscar for The Blind Side.

“She doesn’t know whether she wants to fight for her marriage or not, but Hugh’s been talking things through with her and he’s been great.

“Sandy and Hugh have a special connection — always have. And Hugh will do everything he can to help her out — he even offered to fly out.”

Recent reports claimed Keanu Reeves — Sandra’s costar in the Speed movies — has also been in touch.

“Keanu has always been close to Sandra but he is also good friends with Jesse,” a source said earlier this week.

“He has been helping both of them through this ordeal. They are all trying to work through it together.”

Nikki Reed Felt Suicidal Filming Third Twilight Film

Nikki ReedNIKKI Reed says she “wanted to die” while filming the third Twilight movie, Eclipse.

The actress — who plays Rosalie Hale in the film — admits she found the role emotionally and physically draining.

“We’re always standing out in like 30-degree weather, with pouring rain, trying to keep our vampire make-up intact,” the 21-year-old told People magazine.

“It’s hectic, it’s crazy, it’s very jam-packed full of emotion.

“We were doing a lot of stunts, too much in too little time. The hardest part is trying to fly around on cables in the woods at six o’clock, fighting the sunset and stuff.

“And looking like we’re not cold and super-powerful, when we just want to die.”

Reed added that filming with pal Kristen Stewart, who plays human Bella Swan, was “lovely”.

“We had these really amazing scenes,” she said. “She’s my buddy. We love each other. We had fun shooting together.”

Jennifer Lopez: ‘My Career Isn’t That Important to me’

Jennifer LopezJENNIFER Lopez says her career is no longer important to her.

The singer — who raises twins Max and Emme with husband Marc Anthony – insists she has calmed down since becoming a mom.

“You start out young and confident, thinking you want to be an actress and singer,” she said.

“Then you actually do it and it’s great for a while, but then you have all this success and other things start becoming more important.

“As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized that the harder things are, the better things are. When you’re tested, that’s where you get to the next level in your life.

“You do things because your gut tells you to do them; then they can never be wrong because they’re right for you, no matter how things are perceived.”

Lopez, 40, recently revealed that Anthony — a minority owner of the NFL Miami Dolphins football team — has turned her into a sports fan.

“I wasn’t so sure at first but now love it,” she said earlier this month. “I love going to the games and getting out there and feeling that energy. It’s a lot of fun. We have a ball with it.

“That’s the biggest thing in Marc’s life! He’s obsessed. I get it a little bit; I guess it’s like the Louboutins for the girls. He’s just really embracing being part of a team like that.”

Amy Winehouse Battling Booze Demons With Outpatient Treatment

Amy WinehouseAMY Winehouse is back in rehab — sort of.

The Back to Black singer — who has a history of drug and alcohol abuse — has been checking in with a London clinic every now and then as an outpatient to try and battle her booze demons, according to Britain’s News of The World newspaper.

“Things have got too much for her recently and it’s important she gets some help to control her drinking,” a source told the tabloid.

“She has come a long way from a couple of years ago but there’s still a long way to go. Right now life in London is getting on top of her.”

Recent reports claimed Amy’s ex-husband, Blake-Fielder Civil, told the troubled star she must check into rehab before he’ll marry her again.

“Amy is always telling Blake she wants to get married again but he’s saying not until she cleans up her act,” a source said earlier this month.

Michael Jackson’s Doctor Didn’t Tell Paramedics He’d Administered Propofol

Michael JacksonSHAMED Dr. Conrad Murray failed to tell paramedics he had given Michael Jackson Propofol.

Documents from the official ambulance report which was filled out by medics on the June 25 last year — the day the pop star died from cardiac arrest, caused by “acute Propofol intoxication” — have been released, and state that Michael’s personal physician didn’t mention he administered the anesthetic shortly before his passing.

“This is the clearest suggestion yet that Murray misled the paramedics,” a source told Britain’s News of The World newspaper. “Why didn’t he tell them about the Propofol? We are sick at what this report indicates.”

Murray was charged with involuntary manslaughter over the late Thriller singer’s death earlier this year. He has pleaded not guilty.

The notes written by the paramedics state they quizzed Murray about which medications Michael was on.

However, Murray told them the late King of Pop had only taken the sedative Lorazepam and fluids to rehydrate him after he complained of being exhausted following a sleepless night.

The medications stated are different from what Murray has previously told Police.

Detectives claim Murray also administered Valium, Midazolam, Flumanzenil and Propofol during the night, and tests carried out by a coroner discovered Michael’s blood also contained Lorazepam as well as other anxiety sedatives Lidocaine, Diazepam, Nordiazepam and Midazolam, plus Ephedrine which can be used for sleep disorders and Propofol.

Part of the document has been left blank, which suggest the physician failed to discuss with medics in detail about the medications Michael had taken.

The documents also show how Michael had already flat-lined — a term used when there is no heart activity — before emergency services had arrived at his home.

On their arrival, he was given two rounds of heart-revival drugs and was declared dead at the scene.

However, Murray insisted the pop star’s body was rushed to hospital and demanded doctors tried to revive him for a third time.

This was unsuccessful and Michael passed away, aged 50.

KIMORA LEE SIMMONS LAUNCHES SCATHING ATTACK ON “CRAP” REALITY TELEVISION, THE GOSSELINS!

Kimora Lee SimmonsKIMORA Lee Simmons is not a fan of reality TV!

The Kimora: Life In The Fast Lane star has hit out at shows like the Gosselins’ Jon & Kate Plus 8.

“I would never do a show like [that],” she told E! News. “My show is not like that. My show is about me as a businesswoman.

“My kids are the B-story or C-story… You’re just not watching them run through the house and have temper tantrums and pick out what they’re wearing for dinner.”

Simmons — who is mom to daughters Ming, 10, and Aoki, 7 — explained that her children don’t watch many programmes. (more…)

Victoria Beckham Glad She Had to Prove Herself

Victoria BeckhamVICTORIA Beckham is glad she has had to “prove” herself.

The singer-turned-designer was delighted to see a number of famous names — including Demi Moore and Cameron Diaz — wearing her dresses at pre- and post-Oscar parties earlier this month and thinks she has finally been accepted by the fashion world.

“I have had to prove myself,” she said. “But that’s a good thing: everybody has to prove themselves, not just me… I want to grow as a designer, I want to learn the techniques and do more and more.

“I feel more confident in myself because I feel fulfilled, creatively and professionally. I’ve still got a long way to go, but I feel very happy. I’m in a good place in my life. And I don’t feel I have to prove myself as much as I used to have to.”

Victoria — who has been widely criticized for her slender frame — is particularly happy that her creations have been endorsed by so many stars of different physiques.

“The support has been fantastic,” she said. “And it’s been great that it’s been on lots of different body shapes as well.

“There have been tiny people wearing the dresses, such as Madonna, and then Jennifer Hudson wore one at the Golden Globes. The way the dresses have been constructed means that they are really flattering.”

Simon Cowell to Marry on Boat — Named After Himself!

Simon CowellSIMON Cowell wants to get married on a boat named after himself.

The music mogul — who is engaged to American Idol make-up artist Mezhgan Hussainy — wants to buy a lavish yacht for his upcoming nuptials in the Caribbean and rename it ‘The Simon Cowell’.

“Simon sees Barbados as his home from home,” a source said. “It would be such a great place to get married, and the plan is to do it at sea. The idea is to pick up all the guests in Barbados and then sail to St. Barts and get married there.

“Then they’d all sail back to Barbados for a huge party. It would just be close friends and family on the yacht. Simon has been saying he’d name it after himself.”

However, this news isn’t expected to go down well with Simon’s mother Julie — who is desperate for him to wed at the St. Margaret’s Church in Rottingdean, East Sussex, South East England, where she worships regularly.

“I’m very excited about the wedding and I’d love him to get married at St. Margaret’s. But it’s up to him and Mezghan,” Julie has said.

If this happens, it is believed the pair will organize a second ceremony in Los Angeles for his fiancee’s family.
