British supermodel Naomi Campbell has left the Sirio-Libanes Hospital hospital in Brazil where she had a cyst removed in an emergency operation — in a helicopter to escape the media circus that had gathered outside, according to local reports.

The helicopter airlifted Campbell, 37, from the Sao Paulo hospital to an undisclosed location.

The hospital issued a short statement saying the model had “recovered well” from surgery on Monday to remove the cyst and was healthy enough to leave.

“I can guarantee it is not a case of cancer… because a pathologist followed the operation and conducted all the relevant exams,” said gynecologist Jose Aristodemo Pinotti, adding, “any possibility of malignity has been removed. I believe she will be completely cured.”

The model — rumored to be dating Brazilian millionaire Marcus Elias — who was constantly by her side in hospital, had reportedly been uncomfortable with the intense media attention focused on her during her convalescence, with hospital staff saying she had been incredibly rude and ordered the telephone in her room cut off to protect her privacy.

Campbell had arrived at the hospital by helicopter on Sunday night, after flying in from London. The operation took place Monday night.

It is unclear where the cyst was located, but doctors have confirmed a laparoscopy took place – which is used for procedures in the stomach and pelvis.

New mom Jennifer Lopez is so worried that her baby twins might be kidnapped — she is shelling out a whopping $600,000 hiring a team of bodyguards to watch over them 24/7.

According to sources close to the Latino singer, Lopez — with the full support of husband Marc Anthony — beefed up her home security by hiring SIX bodyguards — at annual cost of $600k — two for each eight-hour shift around the clock.

Lopez has also reportedly installed closed-circuit cameras in every room in hers and Anthony’s various homes.

“She’s paranoid about a possible kidnapping,” the source said.

Chicago Sun Times columnist Bill Zwecker writes: “Lopez also increasingly has become quite the ‘germaphobe.’

“Dispensers containing a hygienic cleanser have been placed at the entrance to the babies’ nursery and elsewhere around the house.

“People coming close to the children have been instructed to use those lotions every time they enter the kids’ rooms.”

Lopez, 38, has also been bulking buying surgical masks — to be worn by those coming in contact with the newborns.

Chat show Titan Ellen DeGenres is getting kudos from her pet pooches — after introducing her very own brand of pet food.

“I should have done it a long time ago,” Ellen tells Parade magazine about her new feline venture. “I was waiting for the right thing.”

The new pet food remains unnamed — but Ellen, 50, plans to take a leaf out of  salad dressing king Paul Newman’s book. “We’re tentatively calling it Ellen’s Own,” she adds. “Sort of like Paul Newman’s Own.

“We’re still working on the name.”

DeGenres’ pet food can be eaten by humans — but Ellen herself is yet to indulge. “I have not tasted it yet,” she said “A lot of my people have. I have my people taste it first. I have people tasters. No, my life’s going pretty good. I don’t need to eat it yet.

The pet food is completely natural — so it’s suitable for even the most pampered pets. “People love their animals so much so that they put little clothes on them and necklaces and booties and things like that,” said Ellen. “And if you love your animal, then you should feed them something that’s not dangerous for them.

“There’s a lot of poisonous stuff that they’re putting in a lot of that food, those by-products.”

Britney Spears was almost evicted from her Malibu home – because she hadn’t paid the rent.

The landlord for the spacious mansion was furious that the pop wreck was more than two weeks late paying her $35,000 rent.

So he sent the official lessee for the Toxic Singer – the Love Shack trust – a letter on February 14 demanding that she pay up or movie out.

In addition to the outstanding rent amount of $35,000, a $2,100 late charged kicked in, which was also not paid.

The documents stated that Love Shack must either pay up or “surrender and deliver up possession of said Premises…”

The last line in the documents also cited Section 594 of the Penal Code of California: “Every person who maliciously injures or destroys any real or personal property not his own…is guilty of vandalism.”

Sources insist that it was Britney’s financial team and not her dad Jamie, who has been named conservator over her estate including her financial affair, who screwed up.

And the Love Shack is now current on all rent and late fees.

Jeff Conway has revealed he kicked his drug habit by practicing the controversial religion of Scientology.

The former ‘Taxi’ star, who recently starred in VH1’s Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, revealed: “I’ve been doing Scientology…my doctor was like, Holy cow, he says whatever you’ve been doing keep doing it because it’s really working.”

Conway also revealed that his former ‘Grease’ co-star John Travolta introduced him to the religion – that also counts Tom Cruise and wife Katie Holmes as members.  “John and I stayed friends but he couldn’t watch me going down the tubes…he gave me a whole library of Scientology books and he’s given me an auditor who comes almost every day.”

Conaway also revealed he can’t wait to get back in front of the camera. “I’m going to be strong and healthy and totally together,” he tells Inside Edition in an interview to air Monday, March 3rd. “I’ve got to get ready for my Academy Award.”

The tough-talking British chef who cooked up a story about designing Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s wedding cake has been fired from his US TV show.

After it was discovered that Dinner Impossible star Irvine lied about his credentials — including having designed Diana’s wedding cake — Food Network bosses investigated the situation.

And now they have revealed they have given Irvine the chop and have not renewed his contract.

A statement from Food Network said: “We have not renewed Robert’s contract for future seasons and will be looking for a replacement host.”

Irvine has apologized for his actions, saying: “I was wrong to exaggerate in statements related to my experiences regarding the Royal Family.”

Irvine pretends to be a slick super-spy in the opening titles to hit series ‘Dinner: Impossible’, which promise viewers: “What you are about to see…is real.”

A voiceover introduces his cooking missions by saying: “Robert has tackled some of the toughest culinary challenges in the world – but can he conquer this one?”

In one recent episode that aired in the US, he showed off his six-pack while facing the task of cooking more than 20 native Hawaiian dishes in eight hours. But he was soon under investigation by TV network bosses over his outlandish bragging.

He claimed he was a knight who owns a castle in Scotland, had cooked for presidents and royalty and was pals with Prince Charles.

But he finally came clean to a US newspaper that his involvement in the Royal wedding cake was that he attended the school where it was made and that he picked fruit for it.

Irvine claims to have worked on the cake in his book ‘Mission: Cook!’.

And he previously told the Toronto Sun newspaper: “It was an English fruitcake that weighed over 360 pounds.

“I worked on these elaborate side panels, which told the history of the royal Windsor and Spencer families – in icing!”

But he then told the St Petersburg Times: “I was at the school when that was happening. They made the cake at the school where I was.”

Asked if he helped make it, he said: “Picking fruit and things like that.”

Irvine also confessed he made up a story about being a knight to impress wealthy Americans in St Petersburg, Florida.

He told the St Petersburg Times: “When I first came down there and I met people down there with all this money, it was like trying to keep up with the Joneses.

“I was sitting in a bar one night and that came out. It was stupid.”

A Buckingham Palace spokesman confirmed: “He is not a KCVO Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order and he wasn’t given a castle by the queen of England.”

Irvine had been planning to open two swanky restaurants in St Petersburg but they are still not finished three months past the planned opening. He also allegedly owes thousands to his website consultant and a St Petersburg socialite claims he owes her $100,000.

A spokesman for Food Network, which airs Irvine’s show, said: “It’s unfortunate if Robert embellished the extent of his culinary experiences.”

Troubled signer Amy Winehouse will not be facing charges in connection with an alleged conspiracy to pervert the course of justice involving her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, Scotland Yard has ruled.

The ‘Rehab’ singer, 24, was arrested “by appointment” in December and voluntarily attended a police station.

Amy’s rep said today: “Amy is pleased to be discounted from the investigation and thanks the police for their professionalism in their dealings with her.”

Fielder-Civil is currently locked up in London’s Pentonville prison — after assaulting a barman, and then allegedly bribing him not to press charges. He appeared at a London court earlier today where he pleaded not guilty to a charge of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice.

A Scotland Yard spokesman said: “A 24-year-old woman arrested by appointment at an east London police station on December 18 will not be required to answer bail following advice from the Crown Prosecution Service. No further action will be taken.”

Amy, who’s currently in France for Paris Fashion Week — where she is being paid $1m by Louis Vuitton to appear at one of their shows — failed to turn up to court to see hubby Blake in the dock.

Halle Berry is in talks to release her own perfume.

The Oscar-winning star will also appear in advertisements for the as-yet unnamed fragrances.

He said: “Halle is an iconic actress and symbolizes beauty to many generations.

“She adds another dimension to the celebrity-fragrance market. Her fragrances will allow her to present another facet of her personality to her fans.”

Monster’s Ball star Berry, 41, is expected to give birth to her first child within weeks.
