Goodnight Bad

Kate Moss has been dumped by Jamie Hince after he found out she told Pete Doherty that she'd like to give their relationship another shot. Kate's continuing contact with Pete has finally got too much for The Kills' guitarist. A source told the People: "Jamie is jealous and insecure about how she still talks about Pete. She is on the verge of being obsessed with him and it got too much for Jamie. He got fed up and suggested they split." Jamie would be better off without her.












Michelle Rodriguez surrendered herself last Sunday afternoon afternoon to begin her six-month jail sentence. The star was booked at 4.33pm at the Century Regional Detention Facility. The overseeing judge has said Michelle will not be eligible for the early release programme enjoyed by Lohan and Richie but the sheriff may have to override the order because of over-crowding. Wow. Will that mean six days or six weeks?

Amy Winehouse has been banned from normal visits to her imprisoned husband after he failed a drugs test. The troubled singer can now only see Blake Fielder-Civil, from behind a glass screen with no physical contact. The move by officials at London's Pentonville prison comes after he tested positive last week for a Class A drug. And now that idiot is making Amy feel more depressed.







Mischa Barton has granted director Lord Attenborough a special privilege - he's the only director she'll pose fully nude for. The actress will only peel off if movie roles require her to pose naked, and even then she'll only bare her bottom half for him. Barton says, "I don't mind nudity. Well, you do see me topless in Closing the Ring. But I would never do full body. Well, I did let Richard Attenborough get a brief behind shot. But that was it". Lucky boy.

David Schwimmer has revealed that his mother is desperate for him to find a girlfriend. The actor has been linked to Natalie Imbruglia, Tina Barrett and actress Carla Alapont in the past, but admitted that he has yet to find his ideal match. He told In Gear mag: "I haven't even come close to engagement. There was one point when I thought I was getting close with Carla, but again I had my priorities in the wrong place. I put work before my relationship, which I always seem to do." Keep on the search, dude.






Robbie Williams spent his Christmas feeding homeless people at a shelter in LA. The singer has volunteered to help for free at the Skid Row charity house. His chef buddy Raymond Terry said: "Robbie does an awful lot of charity work. And this is really close to his heart. Everybody I've taken to Skid Row is moved to tears. And the homeless people there are a lot of fun." He even brought his guitar and sang Christmas carols. Good for him.

Blue Sky

Renee Zellweger has launched a scathing attack on the headline-hitting "party girls". The actress believes the much-publicised LA party-scene denigrates those who are forging a 'real' career in Tinseltown. She fumes, "I can't bear that scene. People work so hard to get where they are in this business, so it makes me angry when I see someone making a mockery of what we do, just trying to make five bucks." Hear hear.













Jaime Pressly has topped a new list of fit mothers, who hit the gym to lose baby weight and regained their sexy figures in weeks. The star followed a strict 1,200-calorie-a-day diet and even tried a cabbage-soup detox to lose the weight she gained while pregnant with baby son Dezi. Just six weeks after his May (07) birth, Pressly looked sexier than ever. She beat out Bridget Moynahan and Isla Fisher as the most super slimmed mum on In Touch Weekly's 'They Lost The Baby Weight So Fast' poll.

Tara Reid has put an end to speculation over her shock collapse at a Christmas party last weekend (15 Dec). The party-loving actress was taken to a local hospital in Bali and treated for cuts and bruises after a mystery fall. She tells The Scoop, "I slipped at the pool and saw a doctor but I'm fine". The 32-year-old was in Bali after a promotional tour of Australia, where she hosted the Hooker's Ball in Darwin. No illegal substance involved?












Lindsay Lohan has found the perfect new best friend - Yahoo! Chairman Terry Semel's sober daughter Courtenay. The reformed star has reportedly leased a Beverly Hills home with the 28-year-old, an old friend who reconnected with the actress upon her release from rehab at the end of the summer. An insider tells In Touch Weekly mag: "Courtenay's sober, so she's the perfect pal for Lindsay." Terry must be having nightmares about it.

Rowan Atkinson made a mistake of his own when he backed an SUV into an Aspen woman's car. Mr Bean was moving from a metered spot Thursday when he struck the Volkswagen Jetta. "He was backing out of a parking spot and didn't see the car behind him," said police Sgt. Dan Davis. "There was a little bit of damage to the car. He put a ding in it." Davis said the accident was minor, and no citations were issued. The woman would find it very hard to be angry.





Johnny Depp has threatened to boycott public appearances, after photographers left a woman injured at the premiere of his latest movie. Snappers accidentally toppled a female fan at the New York screening of Sweeney Todd earlier this month (03Dec07). The actor yelled at members of the press, "If you guys can't control yourselves, I won't do public appearances anymore". The source claims photographers behaved themselves after the threat. Well done, Johnny.

Three L.A. County Sheriff's Department employees gave special treatment to actor/director Mel Gibson during his DUI arrest last year. They employees failed to follow proper procedures during the actor's arrest and tried to withhold details of the arrest report. One received a two-day suspension, while the others received written warnings. "The violations resulted from the decision about when and how to release Mr. Gibson from custody," the OIR says.






Ali Larter and longtime boyfriend Hayes MacArthur, got engaged over the weekend, according to People mag. "It's true," a rep for the actress said. "They're thrilled." The marriage will be the first for both parties. No wedding date has been set. Larter has been anxiously awaiting a proposal from him. "I told my boyfriend after three weeks that I wanted to marry him and that we could do it tomorrow," Larter recently said. "I look forward to that time when I'm home with babies." Congrats.















~~~~~~MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~

Soho Pleasures

It's claimed that Avril cut short her own gig in order to watch the Spice Girls on their Canadian comeback tour. The singer skipped out on a show in Burnaby after just two songs so that she could attend the Vancouver show. Star mag reports: "Avril Lavigne arrived more than an hour late to her free outdoor concert at the grand opening of the Best Buy in Burnaby, on December 2nd, and never apologized for leaving her fans to wait in the freezing, snowy weather." Naughty.











The countdown is on for Christina Aguilera's baby - she has a delivery date of 10 January. The singer has her caesarian section scheduled. Meanwhile, Christina and hubby are toying with the names Jackson Jake and Max. As well as Christmas and New Year before her big day, Christina is planning another baby shower over the next fortnight: "Christina will be having a second baby shower at the Hotel Bel-Air over Christmas with just her friends."

Kate Middleton has moved in with Prince William. She has been staying at the Clarence House for the past two months, with royal staff instructed to allow her constant access. A source revealed, "Kate is so firmly installed there that she has given the keys for her place in Chelsea to her younger sister, Pippa." News that the pair are living together will fuel rumors the couple are on the verge of cementing their relationship by getting engaged. Just a matter of time?












Kate Hudson opens up to Vogue mag and had a few kind words to Owen Wilson. The actress said, "Owen is such a lovely person, and I love him dearly. And I wish him beautiful things - health and everything that he desires in life." Kate also talks about her split from singer Chris Robinson. She said that her son Ryder's birth in January 2004 was the beginning of the end. They were recently seen playing with their son, proving that their relationship is truly amicable.

Rupert Everett has launched an astonishing attack on George Clooney, labelling him "not the brightest spark" and his films "a cancer to culture". Despite questioning his intelligence, Everett is also convinced Clooney will one day become U.S. president. He said, "The Ocean's films are a cancer to the world culture. They're destroying us. Clooney's not the brightest spark on the boulevard. He'll be president one day.. if he's straight." Ouch.







Noel Gallagher is the coolest bloke in Britain, according to a recent survey. The singer may have just celebrated his 40th birthday, but he was voted way ahead of the rest. Steven Gerrard was second in the 100 Coolest British Men of 2007 list. Daniel Craig got fourth. Alex Turner came in 10th place. Editor Ben Todd said: "These inaugural awards have revealed some quite surprising results with Noel, who has acquired something of an 'elder statesman' role, topping the poll. It shows that he is someone young people today strive to be like." Can't argue with the results.

Jack White has revealed that he is working on three new albums, neither of which will under the White Stripes or Raconteurs banner. He won't reveal what the projects are; while the cancellation of the WS autumn touring schedule meant he had more time to work on them. He also said that Meg never came close to quitting the band but now seems happier after the pair worked on 'Conquest' with Beck. He said: "If it came to a point where Meg said, 'I don't want to be in this band anymore, it doesn't fulfill me in any way,' then it would be a different story. But she's not saying that." Phew.

Gilt Complex

Lily Allen is being whisked off to Hungary by her dad Keith over fears about her health. The singer will accompany her dad whilst he films a third series of BBC1's Robin Hood in Budapest, after he grew worried by her recent weight loss. Keith made the decision after seeing Lily drop three dress sizes in just two months. A source revealed, "Keith wants to take Lily away from the pressure. He doesn't want her to end up like Amy Winehouse." Nah. Won't happen.








Joss Stone is to be the new face of Cadbury's Flake. Cadbury's hope Joss will help relaunch the bar, whilst referencing the classic "only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate" campaigns of the past. A source tells the Mirror, "Joss was chosen because she is sexy but in a young, fresh way. Instead of her doing a big version of the advert, it will be her eating the bar, remembering the song and singing it to herself." Will this Stone Sweetener campaign work?

Nicole Kidman, the face of Chanel No.5, has accepted substantial damages over a claim that she snubbed the perfume by promoting a competitor. Her solicitor said that she had suffered considerable embarrassment and distress over the story. The column falsely alleged that, whilst in London to promote The Golden Compass, Kidman had put Chanel's nose out of joint by attending press junkets with a bottle of Jo Malone, her "favourite perfume", close at hand.

Mary Lynn Rajskub was once mistaken for a prostitute. Chloe found herself in an embarrassing situation when looking for work in LA. "I was wandering aimlessly wearing ratty pyjama bottoms and a dirty backpack when a girl stopped me and asked, 'Are you looking for work?' I was, sort of. I had just finished a role in Veronica's Closet. She led me to a doughnut shop, where I was introduced to a man dressed in all black and chunky gold jewellery. 'My name is Charles. We're in the adult entertainment industry.' I said, 'I'll think about it,' and ran out of the shop." Hahahahaha...







Daniel Craig is desperate to witness the Northern Lights after seeing the Arctic phenomena recreated in 'The Golden Compass'. He says: "I travelled up to the Arctic Circle as a child and I've been that far but I've never seen the lights. I've seen the midnight sun. I've been to Iceland and I've filmed up on the glaciers, but I'd love to see the Northern Lights." The lights, named 'Aurora Borealis', are naturally created coloured light displays in the night sky.

Pete Doherty is to reveal all about his life with Kate Moss in a new TV documentary. The singer is reportedly negotiating a $100,000 deal with a British channel to make a programme about their relationship. A source tells The Sunday People, "He has promised it will be a no-holds barred chat. Producers are hoping he'll let them use a lot of film he and Kate shot on camcorders. Some of it is really raunchy stuff Kate believed would never be seen by anyone else. There could be a big legal battle over it." Should be tasty.
