Mel B Divorcing Stephen Belafonte

Marriage the second time around has turned into a frightening situation for the pop star formerly known as Scary Spice.

Dance Your Ass Off host Melanie “Mel B” Brown is remaining tight-lipped on rampant whispers that her marriage to British businessman Stephen Belafonte is in the crapper. Belafonte apparently announced the split himself in an telephone outburst to UK tabloid The Daily Mail.

Don’t you just loathe emotional men?

“Dude, it’s over. Mel’s coming back to the UK soon, but I won’t be coming with her. There’s been problems lately. I don’t know what’s happening,” the newspaper quoted Belafonte as saying

The publication goes on to report that Belafonte is consulting lawyers about a divorce. Mel, on the other hand, so far refused to go on record regarding the split claims. Instead, recent updates to her Twitter page feature only snaps of the singer on her way to rehearsals on Sunday morning.

The couple married in 2007 and only days ago were snapped kissing over lunch. But friends of the couple, both 35, say the relationship has been going downhill for the past few months.

A source close to Mel –- who is mom to daughters Phoenix, 11, and Angel, three — said: “They’ve not been happy for a long time and there’s been rowing. Mel’s been talking about getting out. They’re still talking to see if things can be worked out. But she’s making plans to come back to the UK on a more permanent basis. Stephen hasn’t been mentioned as joining her and has been consulting lawyers.”

The source added, “Part of the problem is jealousy. They are both livid when the other one gets attention for another person. They constantly want to know where the other one is … it’s been an ongoing problem right from the start.”

Mel and Stephen last appeared in public together at last weekend’s Creative Arts Emmy Awards.

Mel’s no stranger to strained relations with the men in her life. The ex-Spice Girl famously feuded with ex-beau Eddie Murphy of paternity of their daughter, Angel, now 3.

Taylor Swift Donates New Playground To Flood-Ravaged Hometown

Country sweetie Taylor Swift is putting her bucks to good use.

The multiplatinum-selling Swift has donated $100,000 to her hometown – Hendersonville, TN – to help aid victims in the area who are recovering from the recent floodings that ravaged the region. The donation will go toward the construction of a new playground for the youth of Henderson. Local officials hope to update the Kids Kingdom Playground as well as the city’s volleyball courts on Taylor’s dime, according to CMT.com.

The old playground is expected to be torn down later this year and rebuilt in early 2011.

“It’s overwhelming. We didn’t expect that. We appreciate Taylor’s donation as well as all the others who have stepped up,” town mayor Dave LeMarbre excitedly confirmed last week.

Taylor’s working on the release of her third album, Speak Now, dropping this November.

Lady Gaga Is A Mobile Phobic

Everyone got a week part inside them no matter how strong and bold they seem, there is a little sensitive, childish and naïve point hidden somewhere in their organism. So is the case with the fashion bomb, Lady Gaga for the ‘Telephone’ hit maker is so terrified of radiations emitted from mobile phones that she asks someone to hold her phone away from her if she has to make a call.

The ‘Bad Romance’ damsel is hell scared of using portable device in fear of getting a cancer or brain tumor.

There have been various reports suggesting mobile phone use can increase your risk of developing cancer and brain tumors and even though there's no firm evidence, it really freaked her out and she listens to her calls on the speakerphone. LOL!

Edyta Silwinska Leaving “Dancing With The Stars”

Edyta Silwinska’s “Dancing” days are done. The hot-bodied ballroom goddess — who joined ABC’s Dancing With The Stars during the show’s first season — says she will not be back for the 11th cycle of the hit reality dance competition, high-kicking into gear next month.

Edyta says a dispute with DWTS producers over her desire to pursue other career ambitions was the determining factor in decision to ditch the series she’s been a part of since 2005.

“The producers’ vision of what they wanted my career to be did not meet my expectations. They wanted my career to be the show. I can’t be a dancer my whole life,” the professional hoofer squealed to TMZ.com this afternoon.

Edyta was also unhappy with the manner in which the show treated her husband — Season 1 champ Alec Mazo.

“I want to work more with my husband and [the producers] didn’t make him a big part of the show or very involved.”

So what does life after Dancing look like for Edyta?

“I am also going back to school to get my degree in Communications and Dance. I also have more projects that I want to work on.”

The new cast lineup for Dancing With The Stars will officially be revealed during Monday night’s installment of Bachelor Pad.

Slash Divorce

It’s all over for guitar legend Slash and Wife No. 2 Perla Ferrar.

The Guns ‘N Roses star — real name Saul Hudson — has filed for divorce from his partner of nearly nine years citing the celeb-favored irreconcilable differences. Slash and Ferrar wed on Oct. 15, 2001. According to Los Angeles County Superior Court documents, obtained by TMZ.com, the couple separated in mid-July.

Court documents indicate the rocker is asking for joint physical and legal custody of the couple’s two young sons — ages six and eight — and is willing to pay spousal support since there is no prenuptial agreement.

Slash was previously married to actress Renee Suran. That five-year union ended in divorce in 1997.

Christina Aguilera Home Sale Hits A Snag; Asking Price Lowered $2 Million

Christina Aguilera is feeling the effects of the slump in the US housing market.

The “Fighter” hitmaker has yet to find a buyer for her Beverly Hills mansion more than two years after she placed the property on the market. The singer initially listed the property for just under $8 million in 2008. and subsequently purchased Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne’s $11.5 million home in Beverly Hills after the birth of her son, Max. Buyers, however, still aren’t biting, forcing her to knock millions off the buying price over the years.

The star dropped the price by another $255,000 last week, bringing the listing price down to $5.995 million in a last ditch effort to get the place sold, according to HousingWatch.com. Christina’s not the only homeowner feeling the effects of the housing crunch. Home sales in America plunged 27% in July, the lowest monthly drop in the last 15 years, according to a recent report by the National Association of Realtors.

Katy Perry TV Talk Show Host

Is Katy Perry Britain’s answer to Ricki Lake? She just might be — at least if the folks at ITV have their say.

Katy Perry is in talks with ITV2 for various new TV projects, network comptroller Zai Bennet said during a presser in the UK on Sunday.

“Katy is a target for us currently. She’s brilliant, a bulls eye person. We are talking to her management about various shows,” says Bennet, who assures fans that Katy will not be fronting a reality series.

The “California Gurls” star is expected to wed English comic Russell Brand later this year.

Heidi Montag and Playboy Model Sex Tape: What Pratt Omitted to Tell

What Spencer Pratt, 26, Heidi Montag’s estranged husband, did tell was that he came across a sex video featuring his wife and a Playboy model while he was rummaging through things at their Malibu home.

The model who was Montag’s playmate on the tape, Karissa Shannon, tells the other part of the story. Sharing with RadarOnline, she admitted that she and Montag, 23, made a sex tape, but there were only two of them and Pratt has nothing to do with it apart from unearthing the tape last weekend.

Moreover, neither the X-rated tape, nor the camera containing it is Pratt’s property, and Shannon is riled at his announcement of the discovery. “Spencer had no right to steal my camera,” she fumes, saying that her footage with Montag has never been meant to be made public. “There are other things on there that I don’t want to come out, including the video of me and Heidi.”

UsMagazine already received a confirmation from a separate source that this footage did exist, and maybe even more of it than came out, but in spite of what Pratt threatens to do, the tapes will be kept under cover.

Also the whole story sounds like nothing but a good old PR stunt. Just a continuation of a bigger PR stunt which is their divorce, the UsMagazine source insisted, for Montag and Pratt remain a couple notwithstanding. “They are not really breaking up. It’s disgusting and vile, but Spencer will do anything to keep his fame… Whatever they do, though, will be together.” So much for Pratt’s intentions to deal with the tapes in his own way!

Romance is Over for Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth

Miley Cyrus, 17, and Liam Hemsworth, 20, of The Last Song had been together for more than a year, but moving to a split not a wedding.

A few months ago rumors started to circulate to the effect that the couple were drifting apart, but they were denied by Cyrus who wrote on her Web site that they were happy together.

Still, this week their breakup has been officially recognized, Wednesday Gossip Cop coming up with the news and PEOPLE getting confirmation from the Australian actor’s rep.

Back in April, when everything was fine, Cyrus opened up saying that “Liam was the first person that made me want to be in a real relationship,” while Hemsworth said he regarded their relationship as “serious” and confessed admiration for his former co-star.

Paris Hilton Charged with Felony Drug Possession

Paris Hilton was charged with felony drug possession on Monday, August 30. If convicted she faces a maximum of four years in jail.

Arraignment is set for October 27.

On Friday, August 27, a Cadillac Escalade being driven by her boyfriend, Cy Waits, in which Hilton was riding as a passenger, was pulled over by a motor cycle cop outside the Wynn hotel.

Waits was arrested and charged with DUI (Drugs).

Paris told the officer that she wanted to go inside the Wynn to use the restroom. The officer agreed, partly because a crowd was gathering, and accompanied Paris to a security holding room in the hotel.

In the report that he later filed, the arresting officer wrote:

"While we were waiting for the female officer to arrive, Hilton said she needed to put some lip balm on, and I handed her the purse from the table.

"As she began to open it, I saw a small bindle of what I believed to be cocaine in a clear baggy begin to fall from the purse into my hand."

Hilton told the officer that she borrowed the purse from a friend and "several cosmetic items inside the purse were not hers."

As to the bag of cocaine that fell out, she said, "She had not seen it but now thought it was gum."

Paris acknowledged to owning the broken Albuterol (an asthama medicine) pill, and Zig Zag wrappers commonly used to smoke marijuana, $1,300 in cash and credit cards.

Shah Rukh Khan Declines Controversial IPL Film

Shah Rukh Khan has turned down a film from Percept Pictures that would have required him to play controversial Indian Premiere League (IPL) chairman Lalit Modi.

The film, Commissioner, is based on the life of Lalit Modi.

Khan declined the role for the very reason it was offered to him - he is associated with IPL as owner of the league team, Kolkata Knight Riders. Khan doesn't want to get mired in any controversies surrounding the league.

Percept Picture's head honcho Shailendra Singh told Mumbai Mirror, "Actually, Lalit Modi himself asked Shah Rukh but he declined. Shah Rukh said that he is very busy with his home production RA.One and hence unable."

Ajay Devgan has since been approached for the role, which was earlier also offered to Irrfan Khan.

"Feelers have been sent to Ajay. We would love to have him on board. We have the investments team in place and we are committed to do this film," Singh added.

The film was to be directed by Madhur Bhandarkar but a Mumbai Mirror source says Madhur too did not want to be part of this film as it is too controversial. Shamin Desai (Raftaar) will now direct the film.

Sridhar Raghavan (Khaki, Apharan) has written the script.

George Michael In Rehab

Former Wham! heartthrob George Michael has checked into rehab and is undergoing therapy for addiction to alcohol one month after he was arrested for crashing his Range Rover into a store near his home in Hempstead, North London.

The “Careless Whisper” hitmaker appeared in court last week and pleaded guilty to marijuana possession and driving under the influence of drugs.
He’s since enrolled himself into a clinic shortly after the incident to undergo a 14-day detox programme. He is now receiving outpatient treatment, which includes drug counseling “several times a week.”

The singer broke the news on his official website, thanking fans for their well-wishes and expressing his determination to turn his life around.

“I want to thank you all sincerely, and also to reassure those of you who worry so much for me. I fully appreciate the seriousness of my current situation, for which I truly apologize,” George began.

“I feel you should know that on the day after the incident I checked in to a clinic for a 14-day detox program here in London, which has been followed by ongoing outpatient drug counselling several times a week. Personal problems which I had tried to deal with myself had clearly got the better of me, and I am sorry that my pride has prevented me from seeking help before now.”

“I would also like to express my thanks to those whose discretion allowed me to begin this process in private, which has helped me greatly,” he added.

George is due back in court next month to hear his sentence. The judge has already warned the singer he is facing a possible prison sentence.

Brooke Shields Breaks Hand

Things That Make You Go Ouch! “Brooke Shields broke her hand while getting ready to rehearse for her gig in a live show in Los Angeles last Friday.

“Brooke broke her hand during rehearsal for the musical ‘Leap of Faith,’” her representative told PEOPLE Magazine Saturday. “The cast will be off before previews on Sept. 11. It was a minor break and did not affect the production schedule.”

Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri: Delightful Denim Hipsters

Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan coordinated their attire at a presser to announce their appointment as brand ambassadors for D'decor in Mumbai on Thursday August 26.

The couple was youthfully attired in faded blue denim hipster jeans and white shirts.

Shah Rukh's long sleeve dress shirt had a shirred front yoke. He wore black dress shoes and added height with his tousled bouffant hair style.

Gauri, stealing a page from her husband's signature styling, topped her white sleeveless collar top with a black vest.

She accessorized with a buckled and studded leather belt, black peep-toe platform heels, stud earrings and a red crocodile squared satchel bag.

Shah Rukh, a showbiz veteran, was attentive, almost patronizing towards Gauri, who isn't used to being under the glare of the media.

Earlier this week, the couple filmed for the furnishing brand's commercial. During the shoot, Shah Rukh tweeted with his customary and tiresome self deprecating humor:

"at the shoot with gauri, d decor furnishings were the hero & gauri the heroine.first time enjoyed benefits of being a sidekick on set ha ha."

Vidya Balan Excited Over Kahani, Kolkata

Vidya Balan is looking forward to the start of filming of Sujoy Ghosh helmed thriller Kahani in Kolkata in October.

Vidya's excitement stems not just from the film's taut script, but also from the opportunity to explore and imbibe Kolkata during the Puja festivities, something she hasn't done so far.

"It's an exciting script and we'll be filming in Kolkata for a month-and-a-half during Durga puja," Balan tells HT.

"I'm told the city dons new clothes to welcome Maa and I can't wait to see it. May be I could go 'pandal' hopping and visit Kalighat. That's a must, even during the crazy festive season," she adds.

The film's story is centered on Vidya's character in the film.

Sujoy's inspiration for the film stems from his fascination with how young mothers, once completely dependent on their husbands, learn to fend for themselves and their children when forced to do so by circumstances, often turning into fierce competitors.

"I know of women teaching themselves to read and write in order to get a job, earn money and live life in a dignified manner. For me, that's amazing. And that is Kahani," says Sujoy.

Sujoy wrote the film with Balan in mind, but still didn't get an immediate nod from her.

She is "dead fussy, but in a good way," he says.

"This is a Vidya Balan film. I make no excuses to hide that. Rest of the cast is being worked out. The challenge was to get Vidya to agree. Now the rest of the cast," he explains.

Other than Balan, the film is unlikely to have another major Bollywood star, with Sujoy preferring local talent.

Ayesha Takia Goes West for Aashayein Premiere

Ayesha Takia looked chic in low rise jeans and midriff baring long sleeve top at the premiere of Aashayein at PVR Phoenix in Lower Parel Mumbai on August 26.

We loved her ethnic styling at the recent jewelry fashion show and a marriage reception, but we liked her decision to step away from lehengas and saris and opt for western attire as much.

Her choice of colors and the black boyfriend blazer added a lot of grace.

Ayesha, 24, accessorized with gray cross strap heels, charm necklace, a chunky black strap watch in her left arm, statement rings on her right hand and her wedding rock on left hand.

She used bold makeup - silver and gray eye shadow, shimmering light pink lipstick and bold pink blush. Her nails were painted hot pink.

Her long hair was styled with a middle parting with bangs framing her forehead.

She posed with Aashayein director, Nagesh Kukunoor, on the red carpet.

Nagesh had directed Ayesha in the 2006 film Dor, which earned her critical acclaim.

On the red carpet, when quizzed by Ryan Seacrest Kim confirmed she was dating.

Referring to the blind date that her mother, Kris Jenner, sets her up on Sunday's Keeping up with the Kardashians, Kim said:

Heidi Montag Sex Tape: Vivid Demands Preview

Vivid Entertainment head honcho, Steven Hirsch, wants to see at least a 30 second preview of the Heidi Montag sex tape that Spencer Pratt is shopping to them for $5 million.

Hirsch tells TMZ that he won't go to Costa Rica to negotiate with Spencer for the sex tape unless he is sure the tape exists. So far, Spencer has not given any proof that it does.

Hirsch is wary of unwittingly becoming a Spencer hatched publicity gimmick.

Spencer earlier told TMZ that he has enough footage in his possession featuring Heidi to create an entire website. Some of the footage involves Heidi in girl-on-girl action with Playboy Playmate Karissa Shannon.

Shanon has since confirmed that the girl-on-girl footage exists but Vivid is reportedly more interested in the sex tape featuring Heidi and Spencer.

Kareena Kapoor Brags: Her Role in We Are Family Was Tougher

Kareena Kapoor couldn't resist it. She has bragged that her role in 'We Are Family' was tougher than Kajol's.

Here is what she is quoted as saying by IANS:

"I think it's an exciting challenge to be working with Kajol. In Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham we didn't have too many scenes together, but in this film we are both in the same frame. We both live in the same house, have equally powerful roles; in fact, mine is the most complex and complicated part. It's very easy to be emotional and gain sympathy but very difficult to win over the sympathy and I hope I could achieve that," she said.

Kareena is talented, and we say it with a lot of confidence, but modesty is not a virtue you can associate with her.

Kareena is also pretty, though we are not saying it this time. There is no need to. She unabashedly calls herself pretty.

"I enjoy acting. Acting is in my blood, it is in my genes, it is in my DNA and you can see that on screen I like doing different roles. I can't do just those films where I am looking pretty and sing and dance around trees. I want to act," Kareena says in the same interview.

We Are Family is inspired by Stepmom (1998), starring Susan Sarandon and Julia Roberts.

Kajol plays a terminally ill divorcee who has to accept Kareena, the new woman in her ex-husband Arjun Rampal's life, as the stepmother of her kids.

The heartwarming film shows the poignant efforts of the two women to find common ground.

The film releases in theatres on September 2.

Lindsay Lohan: Looking Gorgeous, Enjoying Her Freedom

Since regaining her freedom on August 24, after 23 days in UCLA rehab and 13 days in jail, Lindsay has been out and about town, but skipped the premiere for her film Machete on August 26.

One of the first things that Lindsay did following her release was to slam the paparazzi over her Twitter account.

"Clearly.. Paparazzi shouldn't be allowed to take pictures or video while someone's driving or at a stop light. 4every1's sake #trafficpolice" she tweeted on August 26 afternoon using the hashtag for traffic police.

Lindsay's mother, Dina Lohan, had said on the Today Show on August 13 that she will take Lindsay back to New York, but that is not to be. The judge laid down some pretty stringent conditions to ensure Lindsay continues to tread the straight and narrow, one of the conditions being that she cannot leave Los Angeles until November 1.

Aamir Khan Production Film ‘Peepli Live’

Aamir’s policy is the most sought out one in the Bollywood industry and he makes sure to get enormous appreciations for his every creation. This time it is ‘Peepli Live’ in the queue. A media event took place to launch the first two promotional videos for Aamir’s forthcoming production, ‘Peepli Live’. Earlier this year, Aamir has already won some encouraging responses at the Sundance Festival.

He adds, “It is a satire on the widening gap between rural and urban India. I’ve been telling the media that it doesn’t address the topic of farmer suicides but you just don’t believe me.” Another 10 promos will be soon launched and the presently launched promos contain ample humor with Raghubir and Rajpal’s Yadav in the lead roles. However, there are instances in the movie which shows that the farmer (Rajpal) threatens the government to commit suicide, claiming compensation to run his family. The related scenes are extremely humorous and touching.

Sonam Kapoor's Comforting Secret

Sonam Kapoor shed a lot of weight to enter films, but still finds comfort in eating junk food.

Gone are the times when talented young girls needed to shed their inhibitions to enter Bollywood. These days they just shed their weight. Girls don't grow up with inhibitions any more, we guess, they just grow up with a lot of weight.

Sonam pioneered the swap-weight-for-a-film role trend with her Saawariya (2007) debut. Now debutante Sonakshi Sinha is in the news for having pulled it off for Dabangg.

More commendable then her losing weight - Sonam has managed to stay slim after doing so, but it hasn't been easy.

Her cravings haven't gone.

"I feel bad when I can't gorge on things that I want to have," she tells DNA in an interview..

"Like right now, I'd rather have choco-chip muffins, but they (her staff) refuse to indulge me. That's how life is now," she laments.

Not being able to gorge on junk-food torments Sonam.

"I absolutely love junk food. Give me a packet of chips and chocolates any day. I love eating those biscuits that have jam in the center. I love junk food. Period. It's not for nothing that it's called comfort food. There are times when we absolutely need it as it has an emotional connect to it," she adds.

We just hope the lackluster performance of all four of her films so far doesn't weaken her resolve and force her to seek comfort in food once again, because she is very talented, not to mention beautiful and stylish.

Sonam is currently on a break in the US with her sister Rhea, She recently wound up filming for Thank You and will next start the second schedule of Mausam in Mumbai in September.

We wonder, if there is more to her trip to the US than chilling out with her sister. Perhaps, a screen test for a certain Hollywood film that her father, Anil Kapoor, recently alluded to.

Sonam's publicist tells us there is nothing more to it, but then we didn't expect her to spill the beans even if there was, knowing her to be thoroughly professional.

Serena Williams Stunningly Beautiful at Magazine Party

Serena Williams wowed in a mini leopard print Dolce & Gabbana dress at a party she hosted to celebrate Hamptons Magazine cover, at Pranna in New York City on Wednesday, August 25.

Serena, 28, wore a spaghetti strap dress, with pleated sweetheart neckline, that was cinched at the waist for shape. The dress color flattered her skin tone.

She accessorized with simple jewelry - stud earrings, a bead bracelet in her right arm, a diamond ring on her right hand ring finger, and a chunky oval ring on her left hand ring finger.

Her shoulder length hair, styled in loose waves with a side parting, draped her shoulders. She wore thick eyeliner and nude shimmering lip gloss.

Her strappy dress revealed a beautiful flower tattoo on her left shoulder.

Her black leg cast on the right foot was no distraction as she looked stylish and radiant like never before.

Serena reportedly hurt her foot this July when she stepped over a broken glass in a German restaurant while celebrating her 13th Grand Slam singles title at Wimbledon.

She was joined by hip hop mogul Russell Simmons at the party and the two posed together for photogs.

The World's #1 Tennis player appears sexy in black and white on the cover of Hamptons Magazine. In the accompanying cover story, she talks about her injury and how it has given her time to relax and and do things off court.

"I can actually use the recovery time. I'm so active trying to produce television shows now, writing and playing tennis—and on top of that, winning Grand Slams—that it's good for me to just have some time off. At first I dreaded it, but I'm sleeping a lot, which is good, and I'm being babied."

But in future she sees herself balancing her time between tennis and showbiz.

"A year from now, I see myself trying to compete and win Grand Slams, but maybe not playing such a full schedule so I can focus on the other things in my life, like doing more in show business," she says.

Serena has her own fashion line called Aneres, which is her first name spelled backward. In 2009 she launched a signature collection of handbags and jewelry titled Signature Statement which is sold mainly on the Home Shopping Network (HSN).

Um….is it really safe to place spicy liquids in Naomi’s possession? She might throw them!?

The British star amazed onlookers last when she summoned Vladimir Doronin’s security guards to bring her condiments she had stashed in her purse as she dined with actor Leonardo DiCaprio and his model girlfriend Bar Refaeli in Capri.

“She couldn’t indulge in food until her boyfriend’s bodyguard brought over her own salt and pepper shakers,” an insider told The New York Post.

“It wasn’t salt and pepper, it’s her Jamaican hot sauce,” reps for Campbell corrected.

Jessica Simpson Recruits “Real Women” To Model Collection During New York Fashion Week

The last time “normal women” were allowed on the catwalk, Carrie Bradshaw became “fashion roadkill!” In spite of that, the sometimes curvy and downright dimwitted Jessica Simpson is looking for around the way girls (as LL Cool J would say) to model her Jessica Simpson by Jessica Simpson Spring/Summer 2011 collection when it premieres during New York Fashion Week next month.

In 2009, Jessica, 30, faced harsh criticism for her fluctuating weight. As someone whose lived on both the larger and smaller sides of the racks, the singer/actress is ready to ditch the trend of using skinny models in her Fashion Week showings and has instead opted to use everyday women to showcase her newest designs.

“Jessica Simpson plans to unveil her latest collection for the media at New York Fashion Week in September, but there’s a twist. Instead of using super-skinny models to showcase her designs, Jessica has decided to send her best friends – real women in real sizes – down the aisle,” a loose-lipped fashionista close to Simpson reveals in the Sept. 6 issue of Life & Style Magazine.

Lady Gaga Wax Figures Will Go On Display

Lady Gaga is the latest celebrity being immortalized in wax for an official waxwork crafted by the sculptors at Madame Tussauds Museum — and get this: the pop sensation will earn the distinction of being the first star to have her wax likenesses launched at all 10 Madame Tussauds’ museums at the same time.

However, recreating Gaga’s wild costumes and wacky look won’t be cheap. The London-based museum — which boasts locations in the UK, New York, Washington, DC, Germany, and Hollywood — has agreed to plop down an unprecedented $1.5 million to model “different statues of the 24-year-old pop singer” for a display debuting in 2011.

“This is definitely one of the most ambitious projects in our history,” a well-placed source told London’s Daily Star this week.

Drew Barrymore Wants To Sock “Bitchy”

Remind us never to quiz Drew Barrymore on her years as a teenage alcoholic and Hollywood wildchild.

The former child star is busy hitting the promo track ahead of the release of her new romantic comedy Going the Distance, but trouble ensued this week after a pushy gumshoe was a bit too persistent when probing about Barrymore’s troubled past. Drew isn’t ashamed of who she once was….she just wants everyone to shut up about it!

The actress admits that she wanted to rip the face off a reporter who asked about her past life.

“You should have heard this bitch I had to do an interview with before you. God, I wanted to punch her, she would just not drop the youth thing. I have no problem talking about it. I am not someone who is ashamed of my past. I’m actually really proud. I know I made a lot of mistakes, but they in turn were my life lessons,” Drew fumed during a chat with the London Daily Standard this week.

“It’s actually good to get it done young and have a great life later. But yeah, man, I wanted to rip this woman’s face off. She just would not shut up about it,” she added.

John Travolta Kelly Preston Expecting Baby Boy

John Travolta and his wife Kelly Preston are expecting a baby boy, a rep for the actress told PEOPLE Magazine Wednesday.

In May, Travolta, 56, and Preston, 47, announced that they are expecting their third child: “It’s impossible to keep a secret … especially one as wonderful as this,” the couple said in a statement at the time.

The baby’s anticipated due date has not been reported. The couple hosted a baby shower at their Florida home earlier this month.

John and Kelly have been married for the past 19 years.

Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan Bonhomie: Khans Plant Trees Not Stories

Salman Khan's Tweet in support of Akshay Kumar triggered some light heart Twitter banter between the two Bollywood colleagues.

Alluding to a press report that a female Canadian Bollwood fan was more interested in getting a picture with Irrfan Khan than Akshay Kumar on set of Thank You in Toronto, Salman pulled Irrfan's leg by suggesting that Irrfan may have planted the story in the press.

"I jst hrd tht fans hv overlooked akshay kumar n gone to irfan khan for photos. I find tht hard to believe. Khans plant trees. Not stories."

We think the Mumbai Mirror story was more concocted, than planted.

The tab quoted a source as saying, "A lady foreigner came to the sets and asked one of the crewmembers if she could get a picture clicked with the actors. Akshay who was standing nearby overheard her. When the crewmember pointed at Akshay and asked her if she wanted to click pictures with him, she refused and said, 'I don't want to click pictures with him. I want to click one with Irrfan Khan'."

This morning Akshay, 42, responded to the show of support from Salman, 44, over Twitter.

"Salman we love you man. Its all good, Kumar's are used to Khans getting more attention, you aren't called Kings for nothing :) anyway it was nice to have 5 mins of peace in Toronto, i was happy for Irfan. And hey, you are right, will tell Irfan to plant trees in the future. He should do his bit for the environment. :) "

Ayesha Takia Resplendent at Wedding Reception

Ayesha Takia wowed in a sumptuously adorned lehenga and statement jewelry at the wedding reception of Pony Verma and Prakash Raj at Hotel Sahara Star in Santacruz, Mumbai on August 24.

The 24-year-old Dor star matched the scarlet lehenga with a matching sequined duppata draping her right shoulder.

Without baring her midriff or cleavage, Takia managed to look the most attractive Bollywood star we have seen in a long time.

She accessorized with exquisite jewelry - Jadau bib necklace with matching earrings, studded bangles in her left arm, and a bracelet in her right arm.

Her lustrous long hair cascaded down her back with swoop bangs. Her makeup added to the classic glamour - thick kohl lining, red and golden eye shadow, shimmering pink lipstick and bold pink rouge.

Takia, whose last screen appearance was in Paathshala (2010), has been busy reading new scripts.

"Just heard the most awesome script!!soo excited!!will let u all no more by the end of this week bout this film!funnnnnnnnnnnnnn!!!(:" she tweeted on August 23.

Karissa Shannon Slams Kendra Wilkinson

There’s no love lost between twin bombshell Karissa Shannon (rumored sex tape co-star of Heidi Montag) and former Playboy Playmate and Girl Next Door Kendra Wilkinson, but the girls could be headed for a knockdown, hair-pulling drag-out catfight once Kendra gets wind of Karissa’s next Get Rich Quick scheme.

Shannon is penning a tell-all expose about her exploits at the infamous Playboy Mansion and the forthcoming tome will likely include a few less than flattering tidbits about Wilkinson.

(Grabs popcorn and eagerly awaits unfolding drama…)

“Kendra’s always been really jealous of me,” a curt Shannon told Life & Style Weekly’s Sept. 6 issue. “It seems like she always has negative things to say. I think it has to do with having the baby – maybe she’s a little more insecure about her weight and her relationship with her husband now that her ex-boyfriend released a sex tape of her,” she quipped.

Karissa claims the Playmate-turned-mom left out some sordid details about her life in her autobiography, Sliding Into Home, released earlier the year.

“Kendra is definitely scared. I’m sure she wishes that she could go back into her book and [explain] some more things now.”

So what will Karissa expose about Kendra?

“I’ll be talking about Kendra’s partying – things I saw [at the Playboy Mansion] that no one would believe.”

Christina Applegate is Polka Dot Cute

Mom-to-be Christina Applegate looked effortlessly stylish and radiant in a polka dot frock arriving at the Ed Sullivan Theater for her appearance on David Letterman in NYC August 25.

Applegate, who is working the media promoting her new movie Going the Distance, wore a pink and black sleeveless dress with empire waist and a plunging neckline. She accessorized with black peep-toe pumps, dangle earrings and a bracelet in her right arm.

Her blond shoulder length hair was styled to match the playful dress, with choppy layers, vertical loose waves, and peek-a-boo bangs framing her forehead.

She wore pink lipstick and light eye makeup.

Earlier in the week, the Samantha Who? star showed off her baby bump at the premiere of Going The Distance in a draped Max Mara magenta purple dress.

A day before the red carpet event, Christina shared this funny note on her twitter:

"When a designer says they made a dress for you for an event and send over a size 2, they can rest assured my ass aint wearin it! What the ?"

The 38-year-old, who is in the second trimester of her pregnancy, says she is style challenged while being pregnant.

"It's a disaster! Picking something to wear is a disaster! My ass is as big as my stomach, so nothing really fits right! I kind of look like a knocked up Sandy from 'Grease" right now," she recently told Access Hollywood.

"You have to go through a lot of different styles and shapes to see what looks right on you," she said.

Christina got engaged to musician Martyn LeNoble on Valentine's Day 2010. The couple announced their pregnancy on July 21.

Jennifer Aniston, John Mayer Resume Dating

John Mayer appeared to confirm reports that he and Jennifer Aniston had resumed dating during a performance at the Hollywood Bowl on Sunday, August 22.

John reportedly told the 18,000 fans attending the event:

"I believe in second chances! You might have been a pain in the a** the last time around, but you can still start over again from home base. Next time you get a text from the one you love just text back 'come over' - no matter what happened in the past. If you really love someone, just tell them and be with them."

According to Star Magazine, John has been trying to make up with Jennifer since the beginning of the year and was desperate for a face-to-face meeting. She finally relented this month and agreed to meet him, but insisted that their meeting be discreet.

John invited her to visit him in Manhattan.

"He paid for a private jet so no one would know," according to a Star magazine source.

Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt Will Try and Save Their Marriage

Spencer Pratt reportedly believes his marriage with Heidi Montag can still be saved through counseling, and Heidi is willing to give it a shot.

A source close to the couple tells TMZ that Spencer still "loves" Heidi and is ready to do whatever it takes to save the marriage.

He now acknowledges his "fame addiction" and is ready to seek help for it.

According to the source, Heidi too is willing to put the past behind her and give the marriage another chance.

Possible translation: The sex tape doesn't go public if Heidi takes Spencer back (and does another reality show with him?).

Paris Hilton Called Police to Protect Her Against Knife

Tuesday morning Paris Hilton’s Twitter splashed a sensational message about a knife threat – a man armed with two knives tried to get into her home in Los Angeles but was detained by the police in good time.

Hilton wrote that she was awakened by the noise and saw a guy trying to force his way in; with him carrying two knives it was “so scary”. RadarOnline heard it from authoritative source that there was a man knocking on her door at 6:30 am and he had a knife on him.

Hilton called the police at once, and her Twitter page also has a photo posted of police attending to the matter. The socialite didn’t suffer any injuries.

Police at the LAPD Van Nyus Division have taken the man into custody and are investigating the event, but the man’s identity and the exact nature of his intentions have not been given out yet.

Amy McCarthy

Everybody knows Jenny McCarthy, but not many people know of her kid sister Amy. Like her sister, Amy has enjoyed/endured a sorted film and television career; her resume includes roles in such masterpieces as Lingerie Bowl, The Brotherhood 2: Young Warlocks, and Playboy’s Great American Cybergirl Search — in which she did in fact become a “cyber girl of the month.” Regardless of how pathetic her career may be, she’s easily hotter than her more famous sister, and that’s what we really care about here.
