Weapon Of Choice
This boy can't rap and he finally knows it. Robbie Williams has finally admitted his last album was conclusive proof he's not a rapper. The pop star flirtations with hip-hop saw 'Rudebox' flop in the charts after a critical mauling, and he is now convinced of that fact. Robb told the Daily Mirror: "Well this is the thing. I absolutely, positively know that I'm not a rapper. I'm not. I'd love to be, but I'm me, I come from Take That!" The rehab may indeed have had its rewards in unexpected ways. But with him, you'll never know. Next in line might be guest singing with those Arctic boys?
Meanwhile, a real rapper has planned to tell a judge that his ex-wife should stop criticising and insulting him in public because it could harm little Hailie. Eminem has filed a motion seeking to prevent Kim Mathers from making "derogatory, disparaging, inflammatory and otherwise negative comments". She has blasted him in recent TV and radio interviews, calling him unfaithful and uncaring. "Complicating the situation for the child is the fact that her father is an internationally-known public figure," the motion reads. "It is simply impossible for her to be shielded from the kind of media campaign currently being waged by (Kim) against (Eminem)." It's tough being a worldwide superstar and a caring dad, yah..

After a few decades, the lines will start coming in thick and fast. This thinking scares Scarlett Johansson so much she has vowed to have plastic surgery because she doesn't want to become an "old hag". She will go under knife if her looks deteriorate when she gets older. Scarlett said: "I will definitely have plastic surgery - I don't want to become an old hag! I think if you're comfortable with yourself that's sexy, but if you're not then go for it." Forever young, eh? Scarly is so enamoured with Woody Allen she would gladly "sew his pants". She told Vogue mag: "I'd sew the hems of his pants if he asked me to." After being soaked in most of his films, her plans to soak him back thus has gone to the bin. Check out her early days pics - [Scarlett-Kiddy]

LOST Season 3 Ep 13 - The Man From Tallahassee
Goodness gracious what a fantastic eppy! Since the first season, there were tons of speculations on how exactly our favourite hunter John Locke regained the ability to walk again after being on a wheelchair for four years. We also learned about his evil dad, Anthony Cooper, who stole his kidney and then severed all ties. Back in Otherville, they had discovered a happy Jack freely moving around. Danielle went off after seeing Ben shaking hands with Jack, leaving the trio thinking about the next move. Kate can't wait to enter the area but Locke had a better idea which is to wait till dark and then ask Jack whether he wants out. He also planned for Kate to enter the house while Sayid guard the front and him guarding the back. After Jack saw Kate in the house, he immediately told her to get out coz there were cameras all around. But stubborn Kate refused and led to invasion of the Others who got Sayid & Kate pinned down. Why isn't the hunter caught? Well, Locke's got his own plan and went straight into Ben's house. The interactions between these two are some of the best ever seen with their chess-like moves during the speeches. Alex was told by Locke to get Sayid's backpack. Ben, from being shocked at first, slowly played into Locke's mind by telling him about his past and also how he got into the wheelchair.. In the flashbacks, we learned that Locke once went for therapy for depression but stopped along the way. A stranger, Peter Talbot, came to his house to ask about Adam Seward who had a new kidney donated by Locke. This Adam is actually Anthony Cooper! Locke denied any knowledge to Talbot but later tracked down Anthony and told him to call off the wedding to Talbot's mum which he did. Interestingly, Talbot was found dead and Locke knew Anthony was behind this which he denied at some high rise apartment. Mr Charles Widmore's favourite MacCutcheon whiskey was also Anthony's preferred choice! Locke didn't believe his dad's words about Talbot's murder not done by him and also the old lady calling off the wedding after her son's death. Just as he was about to make a call to her, Anthony pushed Locke out of the building! 8 storeys down he went which broke his back. In the hospital, the male nurse told him it's time to try out his new life companion - the wheelchair. Poor Locke was uncontrollably sobbing away at his wretched life. Back in Ben's house, Locke was not interested about Jack's location but in actual fact he wants the submarine! Conniving Ben then figured out that he wanted to blow it up so that no one can leave the island. So he told Locke about this "magic box" where one can get anything he desired out of it. Best lines - it's a toss up between "Unfortunately we don't have a code for 'there's a man in my closet with a gun to my daughter's head'.. although we obviously should," and the brillaint "We have two giant hamsters running in a massive wheel at our secret underground lair." "Get the man from Tallahassee", was an instruction Ben gave to an unknown Other earlier before Alex was sent to get the backpack. Who is this mystery person? Kate had a little romantic session with Jack in some pool/arcade room while Sayid got handcuffed at a swing-set playground where he met Alex and told her she looked like her mum which got Alex startled. Back to Ben vs Locke. At least we now know Ben really came to the Swan station for Locke. The question he wanted to ask was "Was the recovery immediate? Right after the crash?". Hell yeah it was. After Alex came back, Locke told her to bring him to the sub where he later entered and checked out. Just as Alex went off after being released, Danielle was at a short distance really elated to see her baby daughter after 16 years. But she never approached Alex at all. A while later, a soaked Locke came strutting back to land where Jack, Juliet, Tom and some gunmen were walking towards the dock. Jack made a final deal with Ben before he went off which was to release Sayid and Kate after he's gone in the sub. Ben said ok to that. But then Jack's good ol' buddy blew it up (did he really? maybe he hid it somewhere..) and so that deal was off. Ben's plan to maintain power with his people while stopping Jack from leaving came through thanks to Locke. In some poorly lit cell, Ben came to meet Locke. The man who was instructed to get Mr Tallahassee appeared alongside Ben. It is Richard Alpert! That eyeliner-metro guy who helped recruit Juliet back in Ep 7. Ben explains that the real reason why Locke wants to stay on the Island is that this is one place where his father can never find or get at him. Ben then said he wants to help Locke better understand the mysteries of the Island. Ben can't figure out why the island cured Locke and not him. To date, Locke has found three (and destroyed two) of the five Dharma stations; found the Nigerian drug plane; was there when we first saw the orientation film; and discovered the blast door map. Ben told Locke how his communion with the Island which healed his walking disability made him very, very important and wanted to help Locke. "Because I'm in a wheelchair and you're not." The magic box was then shown and in it was a tied-up Anthony Cooper! Holy shite! Will Danielle now go commando and help the lostaways escape? Is John Locke well on his way to becoming an Other?
Jet drummer Chris Cester spoke with Popworld.com in a Q&A, where he joked about having a secret crush on Lily Allen in wake of their now infamous run-in in Australia, where Lily threw a bottle at Chris after he reportedly flicked a cigarette at the 'Smile' singer. "No. I think she's in love with me, though," he said. Read more... [JetChris-Q&A]

Shirley Manson has spoke about why she is fronting a new poster campaign against fur. She appears in the Peta Europe ad where she is shown holding a skinned fox - beside the caption "Here's the Rest of Your Fur Coat". Shirley said: "I believe very strongly in the ethical treatment of animals. A lot of my fans are very pro-animal rights and have often, when I have been wearing fake fur, said, 'Is that real' and really gotten upset, and I have had to reassure them, 'it's fake, don't worry'." Nice one there. Can't wait for her upcoming solo album.

This dude has struck again! Mel Gibson has been caught up in a new rant controversy after telling a Central American Studies professor to "f- off" during a tense press conference. He was recently addressing a film class at Cal State University at Northridge when the professor questioned the accuracy of his Apocalypto film. Alicia Estrada asked Gibson if he had read about the Mayan culture before shooting the film, suggesting that some of the bloodthirsty, sacrificial scenes in the film were both wrong and racist. According to TMZ, Gibson suddenly exploded in anger, responding, "Lady, f- off." He also became angry when members of the Mayan community protested on how they were portrayed in the film during the lecture. Looks like Hulk's got nothing on him.
