Paris Hilton is still eager to marry Benji Madden, despite their recent split.

Hotel heiress Paris and Good Charlotte rocker Benji ended their romance earlier this month – and Hilton is reportedly taking a break from the musician to test how strong her feelings for him really are.

A source says, “Paris wants to know if she absolutely can’t stand to be apart from him. That’s her test to make sure this is the guy for her. She has felt something she has never felt before with anyone with Benji, but needs to be 100 per cent certain she is ready to be Mrs. Madden.”

Hilton recently revealed she  is “still in love” with Benji.

She told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS FM radio show, “You know, I love him. He’s such an amazing man and he’s my best friend and he’s been so great to me and so loyal. He’s an incredible person. We’ll always be very close. We’ll see what happens in the future. I’m still in love with him.

“We’re both working so much. There are all these reports saying that I dumped Benji. That’s not true. This was a decision we made together as two adults.

“Right now we are just taking a break. We are really good friends. We’re really close.”

Jennifer Aniston is reportedly set to meet boyfriend John Mayer’s parents during Thanksgiving.

Mayer, 31, invited the former Friends actress, 39, to join him at his mother and father’s home in Boston after he met Aniston’s parents.

A source said, “They visited her and stopped on the way to pick up a coconut cream and an apple pie.”

Jennifer rekindled her romance with John in October after they briefly split in August.

Tom Cruise believes he is “courageous”.

The actor – who is married to Katie Holmes – has revealed he discovered his brave side while portraying World War II German officer Claus Von Stauffenberg in his new movie Valkyrie.

He said, “Stauffenberg went from saying, ‘Someone should shoot that b*****d’ to realising, ‘I’m the only one who can do it’. You can’t really know until you’re under that kind of pressure. I’m not saying this in some chest-pounding way, but I do feel I’d have that kind of courage.”

Cruise, 46, also said he disregarded people’s advice about starring in the film, which sees him don a Nazi uniform.

He added, “There’s always someone telling you not to make a movie. When I did ‘Born on the Fourth of July,’ they said, ‘This is going to ruin your career. What are you doing?’ Suicide? I’ve committed it. There were even people who didn’t want me to make ‘Top Gun’. “

Kate Beckinsale’s daughter wants her to work with Joan Crawford or Janice Joplin.

The Van Helsing star says Lily Mo – her child with ex-boyfriend Michael Sheen – is rarely impressed by her mother’s career.

Kate reveals, “She’s really retro so she’s kind of like, ‘Oh I wish you could work with Joan Crawford or Janice Joplin.

“I’m like, ‘They’re dead now. I totally get it, but it’s probably not going to happen.’ She’s into Marilyn Monroe and John Lennon and all these people. I really don’t think I’m going to get to work with them!”

Rihanna insists she never goes in for a kiss on a date – because she prefers her man to make the first move.

The Umbrella hitmaker – who has been linked to singer Chris Brown – says her raunchy stage persona is a far cry from reality.

She says, “You can feel that first kiss coming, you know when it’s the right time. If a guy does not try to kiss me at the end of a date I don’t think that something went wrong. Not at all.

“If you have s strong connection but he does not make a move to kiss you then maybe there’s something wrong – but if you are just getting to know each other first then that’s fine.”

Robert Downey Jr. loved speaking in an Aussie accent for his role in Tropic Thunder so much he has decided to take more holidays there.

The Hollywood hunk – who portrayed an Australian Method actor overly engrossed in his role as an African-American soldier in the Ben Stiller-directed comedy – says he has the bug for all things Australian since the movie and he can’t wait to spend more time out there.

He says, “I loved rocking the Australian accent in Tropic Thunder. But my favourite accent to perform would actually be my Vietnamese farmer accent.

“It is just a shame it got cut out the movie. But I loved pretending to be an Australian – they are such a cool race.”

Katy Perry has a girl crush on Natalie Portman.

The singer – who is currently dating Gym Class Heroes frontman Travis McCoy – recently revealed that her smash hit single I Kissed a Girl was inspired by actress Scarlett Johansson.

But the star insists she is most-attracted to The Other Boleyn Girl star Portman.

She says, “Scarlett Johansson is a beautiful woman as everybody in the world probably agrees and the I Kissed a Girl song is inspired by all beautiful women and the power they release in their beauty.

“So I was just using her in an interview as an example and then it turned into this big headline. I was like ‘Well, I really like Natalie Portman too.”

Hugh Jackman’s wife thinks he looks sexy when he’s taking out the garbage.

The Australian actor – who is married to actress Deborra-Lee – was recently named People Magazine’s 2008 Sexiest Man Alive.

But Jackman insists the title has done nothing for his reputation at home.

He says, “I seem to be asked to take out the garbage more, that’s about the only difference it has made.

“Previously, my wife had said the sexiest thing about me was that I took the garbage out, that I came trained so to speak when I came to her. So all of a sudden since that, it’s like, ‘All right, baby. Show it to me. Let’s go.’”

Hugh Jackman isn’t bothered about filming sex scenes in front of his wife – because none of them are as bad the time she caught him with his pants down.

The Australian actor – who is married to Deborra-Lee Furness – says he realized his spouse had a broad mind when it comes to his X-rated scenes when she stumbled in on filming for a raunchy scene in his 2001 crime thriller Swordfish.

He reveals, “There’s a scene in swordfish where I’ve got a gun to my head, I’ve got to crack a code and a girl is under the table giving me a blowjob all at once.

“We shot it for two days and Deb turned up unannounced right as I was finishing. Afterward she went straight up to the girl and said, ‘Hi, I’m Deborra-Lee. I think you’re giving my husband a blowjob.

“The actress went bright red and apologized but Debbora just said, ‘Oh, don’t worry. You’re getting paid to do it so enjoy it!’”

Leonardo DiCaprio wants a family.

The Titanic star, 34, admits he is jealous of his showbiz pals – Tobey Maquire, Brad Pitt and Matt Damon – who have children, and would love to settle down.

He says, “I see these guys with their families, and it reaffirms for me that I definitely want a kid someday.

“I absolutely believe in marriage. My parents were divorced before I was even born, but that’s never bothered me. They’re both real cool people, and I’ve enjoyed sharing both their lives rather than having one life.”
