Lindsay Lohan Dismisses Dating Rumours

Lindsay Lohan has laughed off reports she has a new man in her life - insisting she's just "friends" with her latest rumoured love interest.

The Mean Girls star, who split from her DJ girlfriend Samantha Ronson earlier this year (09), has fought off a string of dating rumours in recent weeks after she was linked to Jason Segel, Entourage star Kevin Connolly, and Gerard Butler.

I'm not dating my friend, people are nutso (sic), and it's not a way to start off the new year with rumours.

She was most recently rumoured to be involved with model Adam Senn, but Lohan is adamant she's still single.

In a post on her Twitter.com page, she writes, "I’m not dating my friend, people are nutso (sic), and it's not a way to start off the new year with rumours."

Robert Plant's Womanly Celebration

Robert Plant wants to spend New Year's Eve (31.12.09) in the arms of a woman.

The 61-year-old rocker - who has famously lived a life of sex, drugs and rock n roll excess - admitted he will be looking for love over the holiday season.

He said: "Where would I like to welcome in the New Year? In some warm, tantalising arms."

Although he is looking forward to celebrating New Year's Eve, the former Led Zeppelin singer isn't looking forward to the next decade because all it holds for him is "more attention to bladder control".

He added: "I don't think I've aged gracefully. When you can feel the breeze of the Grim Reaper, there's nothing graceful about that fear, because I'm only a third of the way through the adventures I want to have."

However, the star has made some New Year's Resolutions - to improve his driving.

He explained: "I park my car by touch, using the wheels as a guide to when I've hit the kerb."

Rihanna asked to dress conservatively for New Year bash

Singer Rihanna is upset as she won't be able to do her usual raunchy stage show in Abu Dhabi on New Year's Eve because the organisers have told her to dress "conservatively".

"Rihanna is tearing her hair out over what to do. She wanted to put on her most eccentric and provocative show here. A huge part of her show is her sexy stage gear.

"But the dress code in Abu Dhabi does not encourage excessively revealing outfits," contactmusic.com quoted a source as saying.

Now Rihanna, 21, and her team are busy devising a new show complete with modest outfits which don't show off too much of her body and won't offend audiences in conservative Abu Dhabi.

Dakota Fanning Pays Tribute To Brittany Murphy

Dakota Fanning has paid tribute to tragic actress Brittany Murphy, her co-star in 2003 movie Uptown Girls.

Fanning was just nine when she lined up alongside Murphy, who played her childlike nanny in the comedy.

But she remembers the experience well, and cherishes the time she spent with the late star.

Fanning says, "My thoughts go out to her family and friends. I am just very grateful that I had the chance to work with her."

Murphy died from a cardiac arrest at her Los Angeles home on Sunday (20Dec09). She was just 32.

Angelina Jolie seems to be breaking up all the concepts regarding her relationship

Angelina Jolie seems to be breaking up all the concepts that have been on people’s minds regarding their relationships.

In a recent interview that she gave to a German magazine, she came out with an explosive theory of her own, something that is not likely to be echoed in many quarters: that it is not important to be absolutely loyal to one’s partner in order to maintain a perfect relationship.

When asked if she maintained her relationship with Brad Pitt based on that principle, the Changeling and Tomb Raider star commented that she did not believe in restricting anyone’s life on the basis of some principle. She feels that it is important to provide ample space to one’s partner, even if that extends to compromising on one’s fidelity. She claims that though she has been in a pretty long relationship with Brad Pitt, they have never encroached on each other’s personal space.

It is normal and even healthy, to have occasional arguments with one’s partner, believes the actress who is rumored to have a notorious temper. It is worse to break up and then slander one’s partner than to be an infidel, according to the attractive brunette.

She does not believe that being in a relationship means that they have to be bound to each other all the time, and that it is okay to wander now and then. This sort of explains why, despite being dogged by numerous rumors of being on the verge of splitting, the couple has been going strong over the years. The secret, as can be gleaned from Angelina Jolie’s candid confession, lies in their open relationship.

Nicole Scherzinger's romance with racing driver Lewis Hamilton is reportedly on the rocks

The Pussycat Dolls singer has been dating the British Formula One ace for nearly three years, but they have reportedly not seen each other in three weeks and shelved plans to spend Christmas together.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Lewis and Nicole have had a few problems for a while now. They love each other dearly but have incredibly busy schedules.

"Nicole was in London last week and was desperate to hook up with Lewis but she was busy in the studio while he is on a European training camp and couldn't come back.

Lewis and Nicole have had a few problems for a while now. They love each other dearly but have incredibly busy schedules.

"Hopefully after a month apart, they will come to their senses and give things another go."

Despite the claims, a spokesperson for Lewis insisted the couple are "perfectly fine".

Meanwhile, Nicole recorded the theme song to forthcoming musical 'Love Never Dies' - the sequel to the hugely popular 'Phantom of the Opera', by composer Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber - while in London.

A source said: "Andrew is a huge fan of Nicole and her voice. He has always said she could become one of the biggest stars on the planet with the right songs."

Lady Gaga strips naked for sexy photoshoot

Popstar Lady Gaga stripped naked for a sexy new photoshoot with rapper Kanye West. In the candid new photographs taken by acclaimed photographer David LaChapelle, GaGa, real name Stefani Germanotta, is seen lying in the rapper’s arms with one hand covering her breast, as West stares zombie-like into the distance with a raging volcano behind.

Other photos show her standing on crutches over sleeping naked people, dressed in an android-esque two-piece with matching helmet and arms, reports the Daily Telegraph.

The series also shows her fallen from the wheelchair, on a mirrored floor in a doll-like pose, with pink afro hair surrounded by pink flowers and a blue sky.

Meanwhile the Poker Face hit maker is this year's most listened to artist online, according to a leading music site Last.fm. The company, that reviewed tracks from full-length albums which had been streamed by visitors on the site to come up with their top ten, said tracks from Gaga's album The Fame were played more than 18.5 million times by the site's 35 million-strong community.

The 23-year-old singer had her songs played six million times more than her nearest rivals The Killers.

Fergie suffers wardrobe malfunction on Nine set

Black Eyed Peas' vocalist Fergie is said to have accidentally flashed the cast and crew of musical movie Nine when she kept flying out of her corset while doing a saucy dance routine.

Fergie, 34, real name Stacy Ann Ferguson, plays the part of vampish prostitute Saraghinain in the Rob Marshall movie, and she has to perform a vigorous all-singing all-dancing routine in the film.

According to WWD.com, Fergie's skimpy outfit could barely contain her assets, and the movie's costume designer Colleen Atwood was forced to rethink the star’s clothing after the embarrassing wardrobe malfunction.

"Fergie's dance was all about keeping Fergie in the corset. It was a really tiny corset and (it) didn’t have straps," the Daily Express quoted Atwood as saying.

"We had to add them in the end because, with all that dancing, she was just flying out of it," she added.

Animation Movie Avatar Starts Long March Toward Profitability

"Titanic" director James Cameron releases his first dramatic feature in 12 years this weekend, and there's almost as much buzz about its costs as the film's groundbreaking motion-capture animation.

Distributor 20th Century Fox first claimed that its costs on "Avatar" totaled $237 million but more recently refused to confirm any number. Most industry observers believe the picture cost a minimum of $300 million to produce.

Even at the lower studio figure, that's a lot of green stuff to expect to make back from a mostly animated picture populated by blue aliens.

Cameron appears unfazed by such pressures.

"I don't think it means jack s--t," Cameron said. "To be perfectly honest, I think the studio has generated the myth about its costs to help in the selling of the movie. I have seen this happen with 'Terminator' and 'True Lies' and 'Titanic,' and it helps the film become a must-see film. By the way, doesn't that mean it's a bargain to see such an expensive film for the same amount it costs to see any other film? It's the deal of the century!"

So just how much can "Avatar" ring up during its all-important opening weekend? Broad consensus has the sci-fi actioner -- starring Sam Worthington ("Terminator Salvation") and Sigourney Weaver -- fetching $80 million or more through Sunday, though Fox has been floating much lower figures to tamp down expectations.

Toting a running time of 2 hours and 36 minutes, "Avatar" starts its long march toward profitability with 12:01 a.m. Friday performances set for more than 2,000 mostly 3D locations. For the rest of the weekend, "Avatar" will play in some 3,400 theaters boasting almost 3,000 3D screens and roughly an equal number of 2D auditoriums.

"Avatar" debuts simultaneously this week in most foreign markets, with more than 5,000 3D screens in place internationally for the release.

"Avatar" is likely to draw best among male moviegoers, but it will bear watching how it skews in the age demo. Heading into the weekend, prerelease tracking surveys indicate a good chance the film will draw well among both younger and older males.

Rocket Singh Making great profil in US

Bollywood's latest offering "Rocket Singh - Salesman Of The Year" is going great guns in the US with its review currently the number one most read movie story on the New York Times site.

The Times review, beating stories on the Golden Globe nominations and reviews of all US films, calls "Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year," with Ranbir Kapoor "a smart, focused Bollywood movie".

Shimit Amin, "who directed the delightful 'Chak De! India', about a girls' hockey team, dispenses with Bollywood's normal tangle of subplots and mashup of genres", it says. "There's music, but no big production numbers. Even romance is back-burnered. Instead, Mr. Amin sticks to the story at hand."

"Kapoor, a heartthrob who has quickly become a star playing cads, turns in a skilfully understated performance," says the review. "His Harpreet is an old-school hero: solid, righteous, compassionate. You can't help cheering for him."

In an equally flattering review, Film Journal International says: "David-and-Goliath workplace drama from India goes unexpected places, and hits satisfying chords."

The posters for the Bollywood import "promise a workplace satire or a light-hearted employee caper" it says. "Instead we get a sharply observed drama of an honest man trying to survive in the usual business world."

"In the exploding modern India, it's a very American story: How do you succeed in business without really trying to compromise your ethics?"

"Not all Bollywood movies are big, colourful musicals, of course, and this one offers only a couple of plot montages set against songs, it says, "But with uniformly excellent performances-particularly by (Naveen) Kaushik and (Shantanoo) Bhagyaraj as the conflicted and not-so-conflicted antagonists, respectively."

In addition, there is "a no-nonsense pace and storytelling sense by director Shimit Amin, and a truly universal and credible office mise-en-sc?ne, 'Rocket Singh' is instantly accessible to any stateside audience," the Journal adds.

Harpreet Singh, the protagonist, "may be a prisoner of the system, but he can proudly say, 'I am not a number. I am a free market'." it says.

English actress Keira Knightley poses nude for artist

English actress Keira Knightley has reportedly stripped off to pose naked for an acclaimed artist.

The Pirates of the Caribbean actress, who bared all to film a bath scene with Sienna Miller in their 2008 movie The Edge of Love, has allegedly been shedding her clothes during sessions at London's Halcyon Gallery for Mitch Griffiths, reports heraldsun.com.au.

Tara Reid poses topless for Playboy

Actress Tara Reid, who was left with a scarred stomach after a liposuction procedure went wrong, has posed topless for Playboy magazine to prove that her body looks fine.

She said, "It wasn't a good surgery, it happens sometimes. I got it fixed and now I'm OK, and I want people to know that I'm OK. I've been OK now for the last five or six years but people only show old pictures which is so unfair and that's part of the reason why I did the Playboy shoot - to show the world this is me and this is what I look like."

Reid, 34, had been offered to strip for the publication several times in the past but she had always turned down the opportunity.

"I have been offered to pose for the magazine in the past but I didn't really think it was the right time. I was younger and I am in my 30's now and I feel that I am at the best age in my life - mentally, physically and spiritually," she said.

"So many unbelievable stars have done it throughout the years and I figured, 'Why not?' "

Lindsay Lohan advised to take a dip at Holy Ganges

A Hindu statesman has advised Lindsay Lohan, who is currently in India for a BBC documentary, to take a dip in the holy Ganges so that the Mean Girls star can 'rediscover herself'.

After a much-publicised struggle with booze and prescription drugs Lohan, 23, is finally getting back to some serious work. She is currently making a film on women and child trafficking in India for the BBC. And some feel coming to India can help Lohan in more ways than one.

"Lindsay Lohan should rediscover herself by taking a dip in the holy Ganges. It is believed that bathing in the sacred Ganges purifies one of all sin and its waters confer immortality," the Telegraph quoted Rajan Zed, as saying.

And what does the star feel about the subject of her documentary? "Trafficking is a big issue here, I'm (here to do) what I can, and I will continue to do so as long as life when time permits it," she wrote on her Twitter page.

Later Lohan added: "Over 40 children saved so far. Within one day's work. This is what life is about. Doing this is a life worth living. I'm only one person. Let's not start judging and looking for negatives that don't exist."

The singer Lady Gaga was feared sex in the past

Lady Gaga has admitted that she has no confidence when it comes to men and that she feared sex in the past.

The singer said that the songs in her new album ‘The Fame Monster’ is inspired by the time when she was experiencing a phobia of intimacy.

“Each song represents a different monster I have encountered on my travels; a fear of sex, a fear of alcohol, a fear of love, a fear of death, it goes on…” Contactmusic quoted her as telling MTV.

“I’m so proud of my new music but I feel during all this time – while my dad was having open heart surgery – it was a really difficult time for me personally and that is what this album is all about.

“I’m just really happy being single at the moment, working on my music and travelling. I think there is a time for that but it’s just not now for me. And anyway, I have no confidence when it comes to men,” she added.

She concluded: “Something that I have or fear is never being able to enjoy myself.”

While performing in American Music Award Jennifer Lopez injured butt in fall

The singer-and-actress fell during her performance at last month’s American Music Awards and injured her famous derriere in the process.

She said: "I have a bruised bone. What happened was one of the dancers' backs was slippery from sweat and lights and everything. We never bargained for that because they always had T-shirts on in rehearsal.

"So they were bare-backed, didn't have shirts on for the performance, and when I stepped on their backs my feet got wet. So when I landed, it just slipped from under me."

Jennifer was performing her new song ‘Louboutins’ and credits adrenaline with helping back onto her feet so quickly.

She added to US talk show host Ellen DeGeneres: "That's kind of what I felt the rest of the performance, ‘Did I fall?’ It happened so fast. I was up and all I could think was, 'I have to get to the next beat. I have to do this dance solo right now.’ I had no time to think about it."

"Then I get to the back, and one of the dancers was like, 'Are you OK?' 'Oh my God that's right, I fell.’ It was awful, but you know, it happened."

Christmas with Carrie Underwood

‘Idol’ star Underwood hosts ‘All-Star’ lineup for holiday special

Christmas variety shows never played much of a role in Carrie Underwood’s Oklahoma home as she was growing up.

Yet the fourth-season “American Idol” winner embraces them whole-heartedly in “Carrie Underwood: An All-Star Holiday Special” (tonight at 8 on WFXT, Ch. 25).

The multiplatinum-selling artist will be joined by such guests as Dolly Parton, Brad Paisley, Kristin Chenoweth, Christina Applegate and fellow “Idol” winner David Cook for two hours of songs and skits.

But don’t expect the young country superstar to tip her hat to the likes of format forerunners Andy Williams, Bing Crosby or even the Rockettes.

“I think I kind of just missed some of the variety stuff,” she said during a recent conference call with reporters. “I’ve seen the Mandrell Sisters before, but it wasn’t something we all gathered around to watch. I missed that era, and I’m glad to see that there’s other people doing their stuff, too, and I think it’s really great family programming.”

Meanwhile, the 26-year-old said she does have a few Christmas traditionsshe likes to keep alive.

“Of course, Santa would come on Christmas morning,” she said. “But we had records. It was just like a choir or something. We had these old records that I would always play for Christmas. I have them now - thank God my mom didn’t throw them away. I have them now and I still like to play them.”

Underwood said spending time with country legend Dolly Parton was a “dream come true.” The two perform a duet on the show - she’d go no further than to say it’s a Parton classic - and interact in a few funny moments.

“I’d never met her before this,” she said. “So I was excited to be able to get to talk to her and obviously get to sing with her. It felt like such a special moment for me in the show to be able to perform with her.”

When Parton arrived on the set, Underwood realized it was time to take a back seat.

“When Dolly’s there, you just step out of the spotlight and let her do her thing, because no matter how hard you try, she’s going to steal the spotlight,” Underwood said. “It’s great. It’s the way it should be.”

The special marks the second time Underwood has worked with Paisley in recent weeks. The two co-hosted the Country Music Awards last month.

“Brad and I have a bit of a history together,” she said. “I got to co-headline a tour with him not too long ago. I feel like the more we’re around each other, the more we get comfortable with each other and things just get better and better.”

The two do perform together on the show, but not in the traditional sense. Paisley could not be in Los Angeles for the taping, so Underwood said the producers “did something kind of cool to bring two locations together.”

Viewers can expect to hear Underwood’s latest chart-topper, “Cowboy Casanova,” as well as a collection of more traditional holiday standards.

“It’s a big mish-mash of awesome music,” she said.

Legendary Anarkali actress Bina Rai Dies

Legendary actress Bina Rai, who charmed Indian audiences with her performances in Anarkali and Taj Mahal, and won a Filmfare award for Ghunghat, died of a heart attack in her Mumbai home on Sunday. She was 78.

Bina was married to actor Prem Nath, who was well-known filmmaker Raj Kapoor's brother-in-law. She is survived by two sons - Prem Kishan and Kailash Nath.

"Her funeral will take place in Banganga [in South Mumbai] on Monday at around 4 p.m. We are waiting for my brother Prem Kishen. He is on his way back from abroad," Kailash, also known as Monty, said.

Bina, who went on a hunger strike to convince her parents to allow her to act in movies, entered Bollywood with director Kishore Sahu's film Kali Ghata in 1951. Later she featured in movies like Vallah Kya Baat Hai (1962), Bandi (1957), Changez Khan (1957), Durgesh Nandini (1956), Marine Drive (1955) and Aurat (1953).

But she is still remembered for her roles in Anarkali (1953) and Taj Mahal (1963). Her last film was L V Prasad's Daadi Maa that was released in 1966.

Her son Prem Krishen, who had tried his luck in Hindi films with Dulhan Wohi Jo Piya Man Bhaye, is a successful TV producer and has made hit serials like Gul Gulshan Gulfam and Junoon.

Bina's granddaughter Akanksha, too, entered films with Yeh Mohabbat Hai, but the film didn’t work at the box office and she decided to bow out.

Her grandson Sidharth, however, is a successful TV director. He wielded the megaphone for the hit TV serial Sanjivani.

Singing was terrifying because it was new and because it was my first time.

The 35-year-old star told BANG Showbiz: "Singing was terrifying because it was new and because it was my first time.

"It was like doing theatre, but I only did theatre as a student in Spain."

Penelope - who plays seductress, Carla Albanese, who seduces Daniel Day-Lewis' character, director Guido Contini, in the film - also revealed her sexy look in the movie was aided by some very good costume designers.

She said: "The woman who designed the costumes for every one of us, I think she really must be one of the most amazing artists."

Penelope was joined on the red carpet by several of her co-stars, including Nicole Kidman, 42, Kate Hudson, 30, and Dame Judi Dench, 74.

Judi admitted she was surprised by how well all the actresses got along, saying: "They're wonderful, I mean every single one, I swear you're going to be surprised. They're going to surprise everyone."

The Spanish stunner believes that Meryl is the best actress there is, reports The Daily Telegraph.

"There is nobody better," she said. "I watch her movies over and over again. I saw Silkwood again a couple of weeks ago, and it made me just want to kiss her feet."

Rapper Murray Raising Aids Awareness in Africa

Veteran rapper Keith Murray is taking time out of his tour of Africa to visit children affected by Hiv and Aids in Mozambique.

The hip-hop star travelled to Africa earlier this week (begs30Nov09) and has lined up a number of charity events in recognition of World Aids Day, which took place on Tuesday (01Dec09).

(But) I think talking about it helps. As part of his trip, Murray will speak to youths to raise awareness about the deadly disease and meet kids in two orphanages.

The campaign is particularly poignant for Murray, 37, because he lost both his mother and sister to the illness when he was in his early 20s.

He tells HipHopDX.com, "The impact that Hiv and Aids can have on a person and a family is something that I know on a very personal level, which is why I was so determined to make this trip. "The most painful part is watching people close to you go through it and feeling that there's nothing you can do to help.

(But) I think talking about it helps". Murray's mum died after contracting Hiv from a blood transfusion when he was 20, and his sister passed away three years later.

Model-turned-actress Megan Fox has claimed she hides her true self under layers of controversies.

The 23-year-old, who has often caused raised eyebrows after coming out of the closet as a bisexual or for her candid remarks, says it's just an outside persona she has created to veil her true self from getting diluted, reports gossip.ie.

"Being a celebrity is like being a sacrificial lamb. At some point, no matter how high the pedestal that they (critics and audiences) put you on, they're going to tear you down. And I created a character as an offering for the sacrifice. I'm not willing to give my true self up," she said.

"The reality is, I'm hidden amongst all the insanity. Nobody can find me," she added.

Angelina Jolie waged "a mean-spirited but effective campaign" against Jennifer Aniston

Angelina Jolie waged "a mean-spirited but effective campaign" against Jennifer Aniston when Brad Pitt divorced the ‘Friends’ star to be with her, according to a new book.

Titled Brangelina: The Untold Story of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, the tell-all has revealed that Jolie, 34, planted press stories in 2005 that painted Aniston in a negative ight.

Author Ian Halperin said that other helping the Tomb Raider star in scheming the press attack included her manager Geyer Kosinski and brother James Haven.

And the stories specifically claimed that Aniston firmly prioritised her career over starting a family -- which put her directly at odds with Pitt, who ached for kids.

Jolie, "was convinced that this is the story that would resonate with all these women who saw her as a man-stealing bitch,” Us magazine quoted Halperin as saying in the book.

Duhamel apologized to Fergie for causing so much fuss

The stripper who confessed to allegedly bedding actor Josh Duhamel has publicly apologized to his wife Fergie.

Nicole Forrester sold her story to the National Enquirer and has since made headlines across the world for talking about her sexy one-night stand, which both Duhamel and Fergie have denied.

I thought, 'Nobody's gonna find out

The dancer insists she's standing by her story, but she admits she's sorry for going public and causing the newlyweds so much grief.

Forrester tells U.S. news show Extra, "I'm sorry... I thought, 'Nobody's gonna find out. It's not gonna hurt anybody.' I'm sorry that I didn't think of it (expose) like I think of it now".

She maintains she had a tryst with the married actor after meeting him in the Atlanta, Georgia club where she works, and she has passed a lie-detector test in a bid to prove she's telling the truth.

Forrester admits her decision to sell her story to the tabloid has beenmore harmful to her than to the celebrity couple.

She tells the news show, "My son went to a football game last Saturday and he was like, 'Mom, you're disgusting. I didn't know you had sex with him.'" She admits the fall-out from her candid comments have prompted her to quit stripping.

Supermodel Naomi Campbell has sparked wedding rumours

Supermodel Naomi Campbell has sparked wedding rumours after booking a month long "honeymoon" with boyfriend, Russian billionaire Vladislav Doronin.

The 39-year-old model has booked a luxury holiday which will cost a whopping 1 million pounds and she is calling it a honeymoon, reported Sun online.

"The honeymoon planned to end just before Christmas, is costing close to 1 million pounds because they will only use private jets and stay at the best hotels," said a source close to the couple.

Rumours, that the English supermodel will be marrying Doronin, known as Russia's Donald Trump, have been doing the rounds ever since she moved to Russia earlier this year to set up house with the business tycoon.

The couple first met at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival and attended the star-studded A-List birthday dinner held for the legendary South African leader Nelson Mandela. Soon after, the pair became inseparable, famously vacationing on Vladislav Doronin’s yacht off St Tropez in the South of France last summer in clear view of the paparazzi.

Duhamel has vigorously defended himself against allegations by Nicole Forrester, a stripper in Atlanta, who said she had sex with Duhamel one night at the St. Regis Hotel. Forrester also sold her story to the National Enquirer for more than $20,000.

Duhamel and wife Fergie's reps have denied the allegations. "This is not the first nor will it be the last time that a stripper was paid a large amount of money to sell a false story about a celebrity," Duhamel's rep said. "This story is absolutely ridiculous."

According to Sims, Duhamel and Fergie are the victims of someone, "[who's] trying to make a lot of money." "Josh is a great guy," she says, "and it's sad 'cause his wife is amazing, too."

Tum mile got the sequences of Titanic

Bhatts are back with their latest offering ‘Tum Mile’. In trademark Bhatt style, the film might seem small in star-value but is big in content. We give you five Bhatt brand reasons on why to look forward to Tum Mile.

Storming successfully

The major USP of the film is that this is the first film to have the 26 July 2005 rain deluge as its backdrop. On that disastrous day, rains played havoc on Mumbai bringing the undying spirit of the city to a sudden standstill.

Kunal Deshmukh, who debuted with the surprise-hit ‘ Jannat ’ last year, has used 26 July as the backdrop to this sublime love story. Lovers trapped in natural disaster – that gives an interesting touch to the romance.

The entire thunderstorm sequences were recreated in huge sets erected at a studio at the outskirts of Mumbai. Some scenes will just blow you away with its intensity and remind you of Titanic.

Bond girl Eva Green, who had previously confessed to being insecure about her body, has finally overcome her shyness to pose for her first naked photo shoot.

The 29-year-old French actress has shed her inhibitions as well as her clothes, for the latest edition of style bible 'Tatler', recreating a classic Seventies portrait of British actress Charlotte Rampling, reported Daily Mail online.

Sitting on a polished antique table in front of an ornately gilded mirror, the "Casino Royale" star has only a glass of wine for company as she mimics erotic photographer Helmut Newton's iconic 1973 image.

The photograph for Vogue magazine titled 'The Sexiest Woman In The World', firmly sealed Rampling's reputation as a sex symbol.

But Green who shot to international fame playing Vesper Lynd opposite Daniel Craig's Bond in 'Casino Royale', said that she often battles her insecurities about her body.

"I felt a bit ill when I saw it. I'm not confident with my body," said the actress.

"I opened a magazine the other day and they called me the worst-dressed person in the world. And I was like, 'I like that dress'," said Green.

Amir Khan Goes Naughty in 3 Idiots with Kareena Kapoor (Bebo)

This is not a first look story for Raju Hirani’s 3 Idiots... this is about the dilAfter Kambakkht Ishq and Main Aur Mrs Khanna this year, both of which didn’t do anything for her, Kareena’s performances in Kurbaan and 3 Idiots are generating a deafening buzz already... and Bollywood’s most powerful actress is literally running between real life beau Saif Ali Khan (Kurbaan) and good friend Aamir (3 Idiots) between November 9-15... because that’s how her dates have been allotted for promotions.

Says Bebo, “Both Saif and Aamir are very dear to me. I think I've created magic with both co-stars and it is impossible for me to choose one over the other.” She recently shot a super-erotic, romantic number with Aamir in artificial rain. Insiders say that though the focal point in 3 Idiots is not the Aamir-Kareena romance, it is still a very endearing part of it. While Saif maintains that there is a tremendous curiosity about his pairing with Kareena because they are a real life couple too, Aamir says, “Kareena is one of the most beautiful actresses that we have today. She is also a very good friend and we have both worked very hard on this rain song. I hope people like it.”

He’s done wet songs before with Sonali Bendre in Sarfarosh and in Fanaa with Kajol, in which his chemistry with both actresses was highly appreciated... but with Kareena, well, Aamir feels the chemistry is combustible. Any wonder Bebo is smiling like a Cheshire cat that has got the cream.

Katrina Hodge Becamed Miss England

Rachel Christie withdrew from the title. Christie, who was the first black woman to be crowned Miss England, stepped down following her arrest over an alleged fight with Miss Manchester Sara Beverley Jones in a nightclub.

Contest organisers announced her place was given to first runner-up L/Cpl Hodge, who will now represent the country in the Miss World Final in Johannesburg, South Africa, on December 12.

I m a AssHole says Megan Fox

Megan Fox says she is an "a*shole".

The 'Jennifer's Body' actress can relate to the character she plays in the movie, an undead cheerleader who kills and eats her classmates, because she has a lot of pent-up rage which she could bring to the role.

She said: "It wasn't hard to get into character - I'm an a*shole. I think everybody is angry about something in their life and I just happen to be really angry and go for it."

We search the rest of our lives for boys to pay attention to and validate us, so no one can really be your friend if she takes attention from you.

The brunette beauty also claims that she doesn't believe it is possible for women to be friends because they are always competing with one another.

She added: "I think girls are awful. But in their defence, I think girls are awful because of the way society is set up and that we're forced to constantly be in competition for male attention.

Jaya Bachchan Will Introduce Amitabh Bachchan in Movie Paa

Jaya Bachchan has been roped in to introduce the cast and crew in Amitabh Bachchan’s forthcoming film Paa, instead of the usual credits by director Balki.

The idea came to Balki while editing the film. He felt that Amitabh’s character in Paa, especially, should be introduced by someone. That’s when Jaya Bachchan was thought of. The sequence was shot around a week ago.

Balki confirmed the news and joked that he was just looking for an excuse to work with Jaya Bachchan. And he was glad the need to work with her cropped up.

Angelina jolie was only Lingerie for her new Film

Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie proved she’s still as sexy as she was before giving birth to her twins when she flaunted her post-baby bod in her new film – wearing just lingerie.

Jolie started shooting for her new film Salt just six months after giving birth to the twins Knox and Vivienne and the revealing scenes show the actress has managed to regain her flat stomach after the pregnancy.

Katy Perry Goes Naughty

Russell Brand has made Katy Perry "naughtier".

The 'I Kissed A Girl' singer promised to flash her flesh while presenting the MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs) after her British boyfriend persuaded her to let down her guard.

She said: "I will be especially naughty under Russell's influence. I've worn things recently that aren't appropriate for this - sorry mom, sorry dad."

Katy - who is returning as presenter of the awards after impressing bosses last year - also admitted she won't be concerned if she exposes her breasts in any of her revealing outfits in Berlin tonight.

She added: "MTV asked me back because I have this no fear attitude. I don't care if I do fall over or if a boob does fall out.

"I've gone for less costume changes this year but less clothing too. It's all a bit naughtier, with lace, crystals and lots of boobie things. It's sexy. I'm highlighting what God gave me - what mama made."

While Katy, 25, insists it is the 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' star who has brought out her naughty side, friends of the 34-year-old comic insist they are equally daring and provocative, which is why their relationship works so well.

British comedian David Walliams, a close friend of the star, said: "Normally Russell's girlfriends are following him around totally in awe of him, but he is following her around totally in awe.

"But I can understand that because Katy is absolutely knockout gorgeous and really funny, really provocative and naughty. He has met his match."

Katy and Russell, 34, were first romantically linked after the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) two months ago when they were seen kissing at Lady Gaga's after-party at New York nightspot Avenue.

They have enjoyed a romantic holiday to Thailand and have been inseparable ever since.

Comedian Russell has admitted he has never felt "more settled" in his life and pals believe the pair will marry in a matter of months.

Aamir gets public reaction for 3 Idiots!

Aamir Khan doesn't want to take chances with his upcoming venture. To get an honest opinion about his film, the actor has invited hundred people to watch the first half of 3 Idiots.

So would the story plot be leaked? We don't think so, for the people who are getting this rare opportunity are bound by a Non Disclosure Agreement. It will prevent people from discussing the movie or passing any opinion or judgment on it.

Needless to say, the 'lucky' people were more than thrilled and even took part in a film-discussion with the lead actor Aamir Khan after watching it, where Aamir encouraged them to speak their minds.

The practice of signing an NDA is quite common in Hollywood studios that hold screenings for a discerning public across the board nearly six months before a movie makes it to the screens.

This is the first time it has happened in Bollywood. That's surely not an idiotic strategy Aamir!

Islamic Groups Brand Beyonce's Tour 'insolent Sex Party'

Beyonce is facing another backlash from Islamic groups - conservative Muslims in Egypt fear her upcoming concert will threaten the country's "social peace and stability".

The Crazy In Love superstar is due to take her I Am... world tour to the mostly Muslim nation on Friday (06Nov09).

But strict Islamic groups have complained to the government for allowing the show to go ahead, branding it an "insolent sex party".

In a letter to authorities, a representative for opposition group Muslim Brotherhood writes, "Why are you encouraging this insolent sex party? You are accused of disturbing social peace and stability, encouraging viceand debauchery".

We should salute her instead of criticising her

The criticism mirrors similar outrage in Malaysia last month (Oct09), when Muslim leaders led protests against Beyonce's sexy on-stage antics.

The star subsequently scrapped her concert in the capital, Kuala Lumpur.

However, the Egyptian event organiser has dismissed the criticisms - insisting not all Muslims are offended by Beyonce's performances.

Ahmed Beltagi says, "We are Muslims too... this will not stop Egypt from hosting an award-winning, first class artist. We should salute her instead of criticising her".

Rihanna Gives Painful Details of Chris Brown Assault

In a 20/20 interview airing Friday, Rihanna offers a graphic account of the fateful Feb. 7 confrontation with her then-boyfriend Chris Brown – including the terrifying blankness that seemed to come over him as he assaulted her.

She says all she kept thinking was, "When is it going to stop? When is it going to stop? He had no soul in his eyes. Just blank. He was clearly blacked-out. There was no person when I looked at him."

The fight, she says, started when Brown received a text message from another woman while they were driving away from a Grammy Awards party.

"I caught him in a lie, and he wouldn't tell the truth. And I wouldn't drop it," Rihanna tells Diane Sawyer in the interview, portions of which aired Friday morning on Good Morning America.

"I couldn't take that he kept lying to me, and he couldn't take that I wouldn't drop it … It escalated into him being violent towards me. And it was ugly."

How ugly? "I was battered, I was bleeding, I was swollen in my face," she says.

Their Love Spelled Danger
She felt trapped. "My next option was to get out of the car and walk, start walking in a gown and a bloody face," she says. "I didn't have a plan. That whole night was not part of my plan."

Rihanna believes now that the passionate love affair between the young couple – she was 20 at the time, he was 19 – was an unhealthy one. "The more in love we became, the more dangerous we became for each other, equally dangerous," she says. "Because it was a bit of an obsession."

She also discusses how she eventually broke things off with Brown, and how she feels about him today.

"Love doesn't go away right away," she says. "He didn't accept that very well. Obviously he didn't want us to be apart. But I had to make a decision for me."

Does she hate Brown now? "No, I don't hate him at all," she says. "I actually love and care about him. I want him to do well, have a great career, have a great life and grow up. And just take this as something you had to go through to grow up and learn."

Kate Beckinsale finds Sexiest Woman Alive label mortifying

Most Hollywood actresses would kill for the 'Sexiest Woman Alive' title but actress Kate Beckinsale is mortified by it and detests admitting the fact that she's the owner of the title.

The 'Underworld' star was handed the honour by Esquire magazine earlier this year, knocking beautiful Halle Berry off the number one spot.

But Beckinsale insists she has struggled to cope with the alluring name and finds it hard when people quiz her over her new sexy status, reported Contactmusic.

"It's such a nice thing to happen and then immediately it's mortifying. Somebody came up to me in the street and went 'Are you the sexiest woman alive?' And I went 'yes,' and then I thought, 'Errrggh I can't say yes to that!' ,I should be shot on sight for that, it's awful!," Beckinsale said.

The 36-year-old British beauty was also roped in by the publication to create a video where she was seen walking about an apartment wearing nothing but black lingerie.

Aamir's 3 Idiots look inspired by his teenage nephew

While Aamir Khan is an extremely talented actor but he was faced by a challenge when he had to ‘look’ like he was in his 20s for his role in 3 Idiots. He had to work hard on looking, behaving and dressing like youngsters these days do. His inspirations were mostly his son Junaid’s friends.

His character in the film, Rancho, is apparently based on his cousin Pablo, who is Mansoor Khan’s teenaged son. Aamir likes the way Pablo is so fidgety that he can’t stay still for a minute. He doesn’t stop to even talk.

Aamir’s wardrobe for the film was based on Ghajini director AR Murgadoss. The fact that Murgadoss always wears worn out clothes or T-shirts that are two sizes large for him was taken into consideration.

Aamir jokes that he had to first work hard to get eight packs for Ghajini and then lose them all to look lean for 3 Idiots. He also admits to borrowing some clothes from Murgadoss. He feels that it was most important to get into the character and feel young to pull it off well.

Soha Ali khan Kissing scene in Movie "Tum Mile"

Shooting experience for 'Tum Mile' has been a "nightmare" for Soha Ali Khan but luckily Emraan Hashmi is not the reason for her displeasure; it's the water.



"I don't think I will able to do this kind of film again. I am glad that it is over. It was physically very demanding, very tiring hard work and I have become quite phobic to water since the film," she told.



Of course, the primary concern of director Kunal Deshmukh was to ensure that none of the cast or crew fell sick because of water. Therefore, strict instructions were issued to keep the water clean. But Soha jests that Emraan probably broke the rule.



“Kunal had given strict instructions not to spit or pee in the water, but I think Emraan did one of the two…the worse one,” Soha was quotes as saying at a press meet.



When asked about the kissing scene controversy Soha said, "It’s all rubbish! I understood when I signed the movie opposite Emran Hashmi, that there might be a kiss, so I was prepared for it.



I was slightly confused when Kunal Deshmukh inserted a second kiss, which was not there when I first heard the script. It has taken little bit of convincing from Kunal’s part, but it’s important to convince your actors. I was prepared for the first kiss but not the second! But it has been done in a very good taste. "



Showering more praises on Hashmi Soha added,"He is not at all like his onscreen image, which most Bollywood actors are! Emran is very professional, and we are very similar, which is why we get on really well. The fact that I liked about Emran is that he doesn’t take himself too seriously. "



Produced by Vishesh Films, Tum Mile is set against the July 2005 Mumbai floods and is slated for a November release.
