Kim Kardashian’s next project - bible study

She’s a mega successful reality TV star with her own chain of stores (shared with her other reality TV star family members), bestselling books (again, with members of her reality TV fam) and her own perfume.  What more could Kim Kardashian possible want? A girly Bible study group of course!

The curvy brunette took to her twitter page saying, "On my way to church with the girls! I want to start a bible study group with my friends!"

Kim’s made no secret of the fact she holds Christian values to be very important in her life. In her show Kourtney and Kim Take New York, Kim said she found it really hard to finish things with Kris Humphries, her hubby of 72 days, because of his Christian qualities.

"It's hard for me. He has a good heart, he's a Christian -- everything on paper I want in someone, but for some reason, my heart isn't connecting."

After going through such a whirlwind date-marry-divorce time, we thought Kim would maybe want to take a bit of time out for herself. Starting a bible study group with her girlfriends could be just the ticket. Either that or go out for dinner with a hawtNFL devout Christian athlete…

According to reports, Kim has got her beady eye on Tim Tebow, owner of those famous Tebow moves that have been sweeping the nation.

A source told National Enquirer that Kim has a big, juicy crush on Tim. Crikey. Watch out Tebow, when Kim has you in her sights you’re as good as hers! 

Mel B: 'The Spice Girls reunion is ON!' (Again)

Woop indeed! Spice Girl Mel B has revealed that the nineties band are due to reunite for a one-off performance for the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. *squeal*
The girl group are said to have been asked to play a very special gig in the gardens of Buckingham Palace, in front of the Royal Family on 4 June – and obviously, this is an exciting development in the world of musical reunions, we’re sure you’ll agree.
Mel B cheekily admitted the plan while being interviewed on Australian TV about the 2012 London Olympics, where she was asked if the gang will Reform for the opening ceremony.
“Ooh, I think the Queen's Jubilee concert is the event I'd be looking at more closely for that to happen,” she said with a smile, before realising maybe it was meant to be a secret and changing the subject. LOL!
But according to blabbermouth TV crew members, Mel B wasn’t just stirring and that she came off stage and immediately said to the behind-the-scenes peeps, “I am going to be in such strife for saying that. It's all so totally bloody top-secret still."
Well, we don’t know about you lot but we’ve already put on a Spice Girls CD and started 'practising' our moves to Stop! And we can’t wait to get singing along to the likes of Wannabe, Say You’ll Be There and 2 Become 1 all over again.

Katy Perry makes first post-split red carpet appearance!

The show must go on! Even if you are going through a heart-breaking divorce.
Katy Perrywas scheduled to appear at the People’s Choice Awards earlier this month, but decided to pull out at the last minute. Which was a shame as she ended up winning an impressive five aqards. The One That Got Away singer did on to finally finish off her world tour in Indonesia though. And now she’s hit the red carpet for the first time since Russell Brand officially announced their break up one month ago.
The 27-year-old singer joined her friend jewellery designer Markus Molinari as his date at a charity event in Las Vegas. Katy and her pal showed up to the GiveLove event at 1Oak, and Markus told reporters that Katy wanted to attend the party as she thought it was for a good cause, “I told her about the cause and she wanted to support it. We support each other and that's what friends do,” he revealed to Us Weekly.

Katy looked gorgeous with her new blue hair in a sleek bob and she rocked embellished little black dress By McQ, and huge heels. On-lookers remarked that the singer, “was very bubby and happy-looking”.

Well, there’s nothing like a night out on the town with a good friend to cheer a girl up.

Kim Kardashian on marriage: “My heart isn't connecting, I’ve failed”

Kim Kardashianhas had another breakdown on TV. And once again it was about the short-lived marriage to soon-to-be ex-husband Kris Humpries .

Fans of Kourtney And Kim Take New York have already seen the Reality TV star in tears over the demise of her marriage, and on tonight’s series finale we’ll see Kim admit that her marriage was a mistake and that she simply doesn’t love Kris any more.

“It's hard for me,” Kim sobs to big sister Kourtney. “He's a good heart, he's a Christian - everything on paper I want in someone, but for some reason, my heart isn't connecting.

“I feel awful that I made him move out here and change his whole life. I feel sad, I feel bad for the guy. He fell in love with me and I fell in love with him and now all my feelings have changed.”
As well as feeling bad for Kris – and a little sorry for herself – Kim also expresses her guilt over having such an extravagant wedding, admitting that the whole thing was a waste of her guest’s time.

“I invited all these people to this huge wedding and flew everyone out, wasted everyone's time and everyone's money - everyone's everything - and I feel bad!

“At 30 years old, I thought I'd be married with kids and I'm not. I failed at this. People change their minds, people make mistakes.”

Does Kim’s latest outburst make you have any sympathy for her?

Super-pretty Paris Jackson hangs out with Justin Bieber

Can we just say WOW. Paris Jackson, how have you managed to avoid the greasy, spotty phase we went through when we were teens?! The phase that we're still going through! This is SO not fair *stamps feet*

13-year-old Paris was snapped with Justin Bieber at the Michael Jackson handprint ceremony in LA. The teenager was there her brothers Prince Michael and Blanket to celebrate their late father by leaving imprints of his famous sequinned gloves and shoes in cement outside Grauman's Chinese Theater.
Bieber, who also performed at the event, said of MJ, "I don’t usually get nervous, but I’m kind of really nervous right now. Basically because Michael meant so much to me and I know he meant a lot to you guys as well. He was more than an entertainer. He was an inspiration the way he was kind, he was gentle and very charitable."
Biebs and his newly darkened locks joined Paris to watch performers such as The Cirque du Soleil team entertain the audience.
We just can't get over how different Paris looks! Watch out Selena...

Simon Cowell attempts to kick bad habit with hypnosis?

We always thought of Simon Cowell as one of the most determined men in the music industry. The pop media mogul’s strict and determined attitude sometimes makes us a little scared that he’s trying to conquer the world! However, there seems to be one habit the X Factor boss is finding a little hard to control, smoking.

Simon has reportedly started to undergo hypnosis to kick the habit, as it has been claimed that the star’s friends and family want him to try and quit. The X FactorUSA judge has been smoking for almost 44 years despite his family’s history of health complications, and he admitted that his New Year’s resolution was to try and give up his 15-a-day. A source says,
“His grandfather Robert was a heavy smoker who died of lung cancer…His father suffered a heart attack…It made Simon think long and hard about his own health now.”
Simon is reportedly attending a top medical centre in London in an attempt to quit the habit. Well, it’s a good time to start! We’ve still got to honour our resolution and shift all of this pesky Christmas weight, *sigh*.

Britney Spears and Shakira to duet?

Hit me baby one more time?! Yes please! Britney Spears is back, and with a bigger bang than ever as her next song is reportedly a much anticipated collaboration with Columbian beauty Shakira.

And as if that wasn’t enough, Black Eyed Peas front-man Will I Am is rumoured to be producing the new track.

Both of the blonde bombshells are said to be thrilled at the thought of working together, with rapper  Pharrell Williams behind the union, stating:

"I have proposed to [Spears's label] Jive Records to bring Shakira into the studio and they thought it was a fabulous idea."

After Shakira’s successful partnership with Beyonce in 2007 and their number 1 smash hit ‘Beautiful Liar’, N.E.R.D star Pharrell Williams, who is also contributing to the new track, is keen to create the next big duet in the business:

"I want to make it happen. I want an explosive duet and won't sleep easy until I see it."

With the track’s release date scheduled for later this year, let’s hope it’s worth the wait.

Denise Welch crowned winner of CBB!

All hail the winner of Channel 5’s Celebrity Big Brother 2012, Denise Welch! The Loose woman pipped runner-up Frankie Cocozza to the BB crown tonight in a tense eviction.
When she heard the news, Denise burst into tears and flung herself around the former X-Factor star, before being reminded that she needed to leave the house. The actress and Loose Women panellist left the house to receive a very positive reception from a whooping, cheering crowd, as she emotionally made her way towards BB presenter Brian Dowling.

The star then had her interview with Brian, where she opened up about her time in the house, those cringe-worthy moments with Michael Madsen and how she feels to be crowned the queen of CBB 2012. Denise says,
"Honest to God, I don't think I've ever been as lost for words...I didn't know what to do - I didn't know whether to celebrate or get my t*ts out…I'm not going to be modest - it feels bloody brilliant!" Denise then opened up about her relationship with Michael, saying,
"Because I bottled everything up, a few sherries later it came out but there were a few things hurting me…Till the day I die, I will not understand that man. Some of the best laughs I had in that house was with Michael when we were talking….It's made me learn that not everyone's going to like it. I'm a pathetic people pleaser. If we'd not been together in a house, we would've met and maybe had a laugh."
The infamous Shannon ‘Playboy ‘ twins were the first to be booted out tonight, followed by Michael, Gareth Thomas, Frankie and then Denise. Well, we think she was a worthy winner who kept us entertained throughout the series...but what do you Heatworld citizens think? How did you enjoy Channel 5’s first run of CBB?

NTAs - all the TOWIE dresses...

You know when the cast of Essex-based reality TV show The Only Way Is Essex are invited to a red carpet event, you're in for a vajazzled treat.
The two Laurens arrived looking like they were competing for a secret grossest-dress prize. Lauren Goodger left too-tight mini dresses at home for night, instead opting for a too-tight floor length dress. We honestly can't decide what's worse - the cowl-neck, batwing sleeves or the overall silver stretchiness. Just because Nancy Dell'Olio would, doesn't make it right, Lauren . Miss Pope didn't do any better with her lace monstrosity. She looked like she'd wrapped a dusty old table cloth around herself.
Jessica Wright surprised us all by opting for a demure floor length lace Rena Honor Gold dress. It's like K-Middy meets TOWIE! Love the Holloywood glam lippy, gorge injection of colour.

The owner of one of the best bods in Essex, Lucy Meck, dazzled in her Forever Unique dress. The brunette beauty added smoky eyes, nude lippy and a high top-knot.

Samantha Faiers also went for a dose of dazzle in a creation from Anoushka G Couture

Not everyone was swayed by the lure of crystal, nude frocks.  Chloe Sims squeezed her cleavage into a strapless mullet dress while Billie Faiers sashayed along the matching carpet in a plunge-front frock.

Gemma wore a lace one-shoulder dress that came with it's own dust ruffle while Lydia maintained her goth-like appearance (in comparison to her TOWIE pals) looking pale and beautiful in a black satin number.

Geordie Shore’s Gaz and Vicky on Tulisa’s NTAs dress: "A Massive disaster"

Two of our favourite Geordie’s (other than Ant and Dec) popped into heat towers this afternoon to take over our Twitter feed and answer some of your burning questions… But it was their verdict on Tulisa’s National Television Awards dress that had us taking notes!

While Gaz was in favour of Tulisa’s fluffy number, saying “I think she’s unreal… If you’re at an awards ceremony you’ve got to wear something a little bit different, you can’t just wear a standard dress”. And when asked if he’d strike up a conversation with the X Factor judge if he bumped into her in a club whilst wearing the frock, he replied “A million per cent”.

Geordie Shore cast mate Vicky was a little less forgiving for Tulisa’s fashion faux pas, “She’s a gorgeous girl, she looks amazing in anything she wears but she’s at an awards ceremony and she looks like a giant feathery animal – completely ridiculous”

We admire Vicky’s brutal honesty! When asked about the colour of Tulisa’s outfit Vicky said, “Fucking horrendous” and clearly not one to hold her tongue, Vicky continued, “…Massive disaster. I expected more from you Tulisa, please, please, back to the drawing board, up your game” Ouch!

We can’t help but agree with Vicky’s thoughts about Tulisa’s candy-floss disaster  Oh but wait, Vicky’s not done yet! “You’re meant to be following in Cheryl cole’s footsteps, not Big Bird’s”.

Matt Damon is going to help Ricky off EastEnders break America!

Yes, you did read that right. Picture the scene – Sid Owen, chilling out on the bench of depression in the middle of Albert Square, when who plonks himself down but the actual  Matt Damon. He says, “Hey Sid. I’ve been watching EastEnders for years now and your incredible talent as Ricky Butcher has not gone unnoticed. I am taking you to America where you’ll be a big Hollywood star!” Marvellous, huh?

Unfortunately, this is merely the sort of daydream we imagine Sid Owen has while the sound of Bianca yelling “Rickaaaay” echoes in his ears, not a reality. That was until Lisa Snowdon’s 40th birthday party in London, when  Matt Damon  (who presumably met Lisa through her ex George Clooney) made a surprise appearance. While guests like Dave Berry and TOWIE’s Lauren Pope partied with Lisa, Sid was somewhere in a dark corner forming his master plan to break America and cackling like an evil genius. Probably.

“Sid saw Matt and made a beeline for him straight away, telling him how much he loves his movies,” a source says to The Mirror. “He introduced himself and said he was an actor too, telling him all about EastEnders.” Oh god… it’s like us meeting Beyonce and going “Oh hi there award-winning singer, we can sing too, mainly in the shower.”

But hey, maybe Matt Damon was standing all alone and Ricky, we mean Sid, was actually rescuing him, you’re thinking. No no, “Matt was standing with Thor actor Chris Hemsworth.” Yes that’s right, Sid Owen, resident of Walford, approached two A-List stars deep in conversation. Their reaction? “Matt looked a bit confused.” We didn’t know it was possible to cringe this much.

There is a happy ending though, as Matt apparently “was supportive and gave him some advice. He said to get in touch any time for help. Sid said the one thing left for him to do was have a stab at Hollywood and he couldn’t wait to do that next.” We’re just glad we weren’t there at the crushing moment when Sid got home and realised Matt hadn’t actually given him a way of getting in touch…

Rihanna gets inked again

After spending what seems like forever sunbathing in Hawaii (not that we’re madly jealous or anything), Rihanna been hanging out at Hollywood's Shamrock Social Club tattoo parlour. She’s also been back on Twitter, albeit not in tiny bikinis showing off her amazing body this time (again, not that we’re jealous), sporting some new tattoos.

Rihanna’s already got around fifteen tats, but she’s now added to the collection with the words ‘THUG LIFE’ across her knuckles in Pinklettering. Her new ink appears to be in homage to rapper Tupac Shakur, who had the words tattooed across his stomach. RiRi tweeted the pic of her new body art with the caption '♫ All these b****es screaming that 2pac back ♫ #THUGLIFE.' We’re not really cool enough to understand that last bit, but we will say it looks painful. But then we are wimps.

It looks like she might also have got a new etching on her back, as she tweeted another pic of herself, led on her front while her tattoo artist Mark Mahoney leans over her. She looks kind of bored in the second snap… but hey, she’s Rihanna. This is just another typical day in her uber cool life that we have already said we are totally not jealous of.

RiRi has said in the past to Atlanta Peach, “I like hanging out in tattoo shops. When I am in New York, after all the photo shoots and performances, when I should be resting, sometimes I get dressed and go to the tattoo parlors in SoHo and hang out. I am so intrigued by tattoos. It’s an entire culture, and I study it. Sometimes I go with friends or just by myself.”

We’re not so sure we want to go through the tattoo bit (because we’ve heard that can hurt), but we definitely do want to steal every other part of her look. Now, who’s rushing out to buy a John Lennon tee and high waisted black skirt?

Rebecca Ferguson thinks Caroline Flack’s relationship with Harry Styles is weird

There’s no denying there have been a lot of haters when it comes to Xtra Factor presenter Caroline Flack’s romance with Harry Styles. A new name has been added to the list though and it’s not just another envious One Direction fan. X Factor runner-up Rebecca Ferguson has spoken out about the relationship and we have to say, we’re kind of surprised by her views.

Rebecca, who dated Harry’s band mate Zayn Malik, says to Fabulous, "there's something not right about Caroline and Harry's relationship.” It may not be 15 years, but with a six year age gap between her and Zayn, you’d think Rebecca would be one of the last people to risk offering an opinion on the situation. Rebecca sees her brief fling with Zayn differently though.

"For me and Zayn it was different, because he was 18 so at least he could drive over to pick me up, we could go for a drink in a bar together and he was old enough to make his own decisions.” But Rebecca says, “Harry is too young for that and there is so much more of an age gap between them."

Rebecca also discusses her break-up with Zayn, saying, "One day I just woke up and thought, 'This isn't working for me'. But when I meet a man I want to feel like he is with me 100 per cent. There shouldn't be any messing around... I'm not saying Zayn cheated."

All we’re thinking is, it’s not as if Rebecca moves in different circles to Caroline and the One Direction boys! We dread to think how tense it’s going to be next time they cross paths. Eek!

So what do you think – is Rebecca fair to judge Caroline? Let us know…

Kim Kardashian keeps up with the gossip by Googling herself

When you’re one of the most talked about women on the planet, how do you keep up with what everyone’s saying about you? Google Alerts, of course!

Like the rest of the gossip-loving population Kim Kardashian allegedly likes to keep up with the latest  Kim Kardashian  news, and according to The Mail she’s even set up a Google Alert in her own name. Meaning that she’s notified every time a story that has been posted about her is picked up by the search engine.

The Reality TV star’s phone screen was seen by fans while Kim was out shopping in LA this week, and keen-eyed celebrity spotters noticed that “Google Alert  Kim Kardashian ” was on her phone’s display.

Considering what’s being written about the 31-year-old socialite we’re amazed that she even wants to see what all the gossip blogs are saying about her, Of course, staying on top of the tittle tattle means that she is able to issue denials when all the speculation gets too much.

Beyoncé posts tribute to Etta James

Following the sad news that legendary singer Etta James has passed away, following a long battle with leukaemia, Beyoncé took to her website to give a heartwarming tribute to the star.

She wrote, “This is a huge loss. Etta James was one of the greatest vocalists of our time. I am so fortunate to have met such a queen. Her musical contributions will last a lifetime.

“Playing Etta James taught me so much about myself, and singing her music inspired me to be a stronger artist. When she effortlessly opened her mouth, you could hear her pain and triumph.

“Her deeply emotional way of delivering a song told her story with no filter. She was fearless, and had guts. She will be missed."

Beyoncé, who played the legend in the film Cadaliac Records, was trained for the role by Etta herself. Speaking of the experience, at the time, she said, “You can imagine how scary it is when you're singing someone's song dressed as them and they are watching.

"I knew she was very tough and I was really nervous. My heart was racing. At the end, I hugged her and wanted to cry."

Beyoncé’s bandmate Kelly Rowland  tweeted, "CLASSIC. ONE OF A KIND. PURE SOUL. ETTA JAMES! Thank You for gracing us with your incredible talent & presence!"

Jessie J also spoke about the loss when she heard the news, saying, "Just been told the legend that is Etta James has passed. Thank you for your voice your dedication to us and your gift. Your voice is timeless and will forever live on. I will always look to you for inspiration. R.I.P <3"

Kim Kardashian realised her marriage was over after meeting with a psychic

Kim Kardashian's short-lived marriage to Kris Humphries only lasted for 72 days, but thanks to Kim’s Reality TV shows the fall-out from her divorce is going on and on and on.

In the latest installment of Kourtney And Kim Take New York, the socialite meets up with medium John Edwards and she finally admits that she doesn’t want to be married. During her consultation with Edwards, Kim is asked if she learned anything from her previous divorce (Kim was married to Damon Thomas between 2000 and 2004), and later confesses to sister Kourtney that she wants to end her marriage.

“What was so crazy about that was when he was talking about the divorce stuff,” Kim told Kourtney. “I honestly feel like I can’t do this anymore with Kris. I feel like I got into this way too fast. You know I’m not happy.”
keeping my distance
in the same episode Kris sister Kayla also visits and Kim admits that she decided to keep her distance so that her sister in law doesn t figure that there's anything wrong

“I’m having such a rough time with him that it’s hard to let another one of his family members into my heart,” Kim admits in a segment to camera. “It’s better for all of us if I keep my distance from Kayla so she doesn’t catch wind that there’s tension.”

It really is quite sad watching a relationship dissolve on screen

Jodie Marsh: “ My boobs were exploding!”

When Jodie Marsh  decided to go under the knife to perk up her boobs (the former glamour models tellsheat that she thought they were getting saggy) she never imagined that it could go so wrong.

Speaking to this week’s heat exclusively Jodie reveals the full extent of her boob job nightmare,

“When I woke up, they were so swollen. I couldn't move. The first dressing was taken off after a week or so – that’s when I saw I wasn’t healing. My boob was open and bleeding,” Jodie explains to heat. “My boobs looked like they were exploding. It was so painful. There was green pus coming out of my boobs and they constantly bled.

The 33-year-old bodybuilder also reveals in heat that surgery has not only left her with scars, but she now frightened to have any corrective surgery,

“They were like that for a year. But it has left me with a huge scar that will never go away. I want to get them reduced, but I’m too frightened. I couldn’t cope with that happening again. I wish I’d never had them done. People should realise that every boob job has the potential to become a horror story.”

Katy Perry in tears as she comes face to face with Russell Brand!

Divorcing couple Kate Perry and  Russell Brand came face to face last week, as they met up to discuss their break up.

Any hopes of reconciliation look to be over, as the emotional meeting only confirmed that the marriage really is over.

“When Katy first saw Russ she said she could barely breathe as she felt a rush of emotions. She burst into tears, which really surprised her as she’d been trying to be strong,” a well-placed source tells heat (out now) exlusively. “He didn’t comfort her at all and she said his body language towards her was ‘extremely cold.’”

heat’s insider also reveals that Russell apologised to Katy for the break up, admitting to her that he was wrong to think that he could settle down,

“Russell admitted he was crushed by the split,” says the source. “Katy kept asking Russ why he would give up so easily. He said he should never have married her and that he fooled himself into believing that he could finally settle down. He apologised for everything and was extremely remorseful. Eventually Katy told him she had nothing left to say. Russell hugged her and left quite quickly. It was very strained.”

We’re still sad that these two crazy kids couldn’t make it work.

Harry Derbidge in tight spandex!

That title is a tad misleading because technically it’s not true or rather it hasn’t happened...yet.

We all remember Harry’s first foray into musical interpretation with his 21st Birthday party routine in a leotard. Not awkward at all in front of 200 guests. However this experience seems to have spurred him further and now him and Amy Childs have announced that they will be doing Let’s Dance for Sport relief this year.

It wasn’t actually long ago but to refresh your memory this is the show where celebs do a bit of a jig in the name of entertaining us whilst raising money for a worthwhile cause. Jordan was priceless last time, dancing as Freddie Mercury – underarm hair and all! Whilst remember Russell Kane’s routine? Even he’s admitted since that he looked a little bit too good as a woman – he was doing Beyonce’s “Crazy in Love”.

So now Harry and Amy have signed up, let the debate commence. What will they be dancing to? We’ve had a poll in the heat office and we’re thinking they’ll either dance to Britney Spears or Lady Gaga. HOW MUCH WOULD YOU LOVE TO SEE Harry derbridge AS GAGA?!!!!!

A furry Kate Moss hits the Prada party

Only yesterday afternoon, Kate Moss was strutting her stuff around in London for the Mango new campaign launch. Now she's in Paris enjoying the fun and frolics of fashion week.

Kate headed to the Prada party last night wearing a fab LBD and ankle-strap heels, showing of her tanned pins. With her blonde locks curled into loose mermaid waves, the model protected herself from the rain with a giant furry coat. We'd love to say Mossy's cosy coat is faux but somehow we don't think it is...

What do you think of Kate's Parisian party look?

Cynthia Nixon goes bald

On America’s Live with Kelly this morning  (American morning time) Cynthia Nixon a.k.a Miranda from Sex And The City surprised everyone with her new (lack of) hair cut.

Cynthia has bravely shaved off her hair for her new role as a cancer patient in the play Wit currently appearing on Broadway in the US. She claims that she “was always kind of curious to see what it would be like.”

It must be especially poignant for Cynthia, as she was a cancer patient herself in 2006, when she discovered a lump in her breast, although she never went through chemotherapy and therefore never lost her hair.
 
When questioned further about her new look, she did admit that she wasn’t sure, saying“ I like it; I don't think I'm gonna keep it forever.” She’s clearly not in love with it and it’s a temporary measure but that is serious commitment to a role.

We applaud you Cynthia and as bald heads go, we quite like yours.

Demi Moore seeking treatment for exhaustion

Demi Moore has really been through some tough times over the past few months. The 49-year-old had to deal with the allegations that husband Ashton Kutcher cheated on her, and she’s now going through a divorce.

The Ghost actress has been spotted looking frail in recent weeks, and now she’s decided to check herself into hospital and is receiving treatment for exhaustion.
Demi’s official spokesperson has confirmed that Demi is seeking help, saying in a statement, “Because of the stresses in her life right now, Demi has chosen to seek professional assistance to treat her exhaustion and improve her overall health. She looks forward to getting well and is grateful for the support of her family and friends.”

We really hope Demi gets the time and help she needs to fully recuperate. 

David Beckham: “I never wanted to be famous”

Imagine a world without David Beckam. It makes us shudder just thinking about it. However, we could all be living a Becks-less existence because the as the man himself reveals, he never intended to become a celebrity.

“I never wanted to be famous,” David tells Men’s Health. “I was never interested in anything else apart from becoming a footballer.”

We’re very sad for the people living a parallel universe where David never met and married Victoria, and hence become a huge celebrity/sex symbol.

The delicious David also admits that he no plans to retire from playing football just yet. Which is fairly obviously as he’s just renewed his contract with his team LA Galaxy. However, David confesses that as he’s getting older he’s had to change the way he plays.

“I know what my limits are, what I can achieve and which passes I can play,” says Becks. “So that’s been my game over the last few years: I have adapted to my age, different situations and the position that I’m playing in.

“I still love playing; I still love being part of a team. Right now I’m not even thinking about retiring.”

This is good news – we’ve still got a few more years of a hot, sweaty David stripping off his football shirt on the pitch to look forward to. And hoorah for that! 

Jorgie Porter too tired for sex thanks to Dancing On Ice

Hollyoaks actress Jorgie Porter has revealed that long days in rehearsals for Dancing On Ice have left too tired for sex with costar and boyfriend Will Savage.

Speaking to The Sun, she explained, “We're really knackered after a show, so there's no energy for that! And he's been drinking at the bar so he's like, 'Oh good'." Through the week it's all good.”

Jorgie also confessed that training has had an affect on her body, although she’s happy with the outcome. She said, “My bum cheeks have lifted up a bit, higher up my back, and my thighs are toned.”

The actress seemed thrilled with her dancing partner Matt Evers, saying, “Oh, he's so amazing. He is such a fantastic bloke.He's so patient and so kind and he buys me little sweets and treats and things and he's just the most thoughtful guy. He's such a gentleman."

Jorgie will be joined by her Hollyoaks costars tonight at the National Television Awards where they’re up for best serial drama award against Eastenders, Coronation Street and Emmerdale. Speaking of the awards she said, “I'm excited! I'm not sure we'll win but I hope we will.”

Are you planning a night curled up in front of the telly to watch the NTAs? Did you vote? Who are you hoping to win? Or are you more interested in the Big Brother double eviction? So much to watch, so little time…

Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis split rumours are false!

We were all left more than a little shocked when rumours of Johnny Depp and partner Vanessa Paradis separating began to spread a couple of weeks ago, however, Vanessa has finally decided to speak out and has declared the rumours as false.

Two weeks ago a source told RadarOnline, “People around him are worried about how Johnny is doing because he and Vanessa seem so fractured right now. Johnny has started reaching out to lawyers, probably to quietly discuss how to get out of the relationship.

“They're not married but they've been together for years and have kids together so it isn't as easy as just breaking up. Johnny is so talented at acting, but he doesn't seem able to hide how badly things are going right now.”

Appearing on French chatshow Le Grand Journal, Vanessa was asked about the rumours by host Arianne Massanet, who asked, “The press is going on about this separation with Johnny Depp ... How do you handle these rumours?"

Vanessa replied, “It depends which rumour. Here, this is one which could hurt my family. After that... they say that we have 52 houses in France, we separate in winter, we get married every summer. Me, I'm in my 12th pregnancy.

“All this is, I don't know, because the Queen of England didn't lose her teeth this week and there's nothing happening.”

The host asked Vanessa to clarify whether the rumours was false or true, to which she replied, "Yes, they are false."

Good to know... although we expect the Queen won't be too happy that her teeth have been brought into it

The Fish House by Guz Architects

The Fish House, by world renowned Singapore based Guz architects, is so named due to its proximity to the sea. The main design concept was to create a house which has a close relationship with nature, and this is achieved by having a swimming-pool linking the house with the landscape and ultimately visual connections with the sea. The curved roofs, which symbolizing the sea waves, also emphasize the idea of the nearby sea.

This modern tropical bungalow encapsulates the essence of living in the hot and humid climate of Singapore by creating open spaces which encourage natural ventilation and offer residents views to the ocean.

Justin Bieber and Emma Watson Hairstyles: So Influential!

One may be the most popular young singer alive, and the other may have helped anchor the highest-grossing movie franchise in Hollywood history, but Justin Bieber and Emma Watson themselves take a backseat in a new poll published by The Wall Street Journal.

Cynthia Nixon finds herself in a bit of trouble within the gay community.

The actress - best known for her role as Miranda on Sex and the City, and in a committed relationship with Christine Marinoni - is profiled this weekin The New York Times and tells the newspaper:

Nixon made these comments around the same time Washington became the seventh state to legalize gay marriage, and she doesn't see her viewpoint as contrasting with the stance of many activists.

“A certain section of our community is very concerned that it not be seen as a choice, because if it’s a choice, then we could opt out," the actress says. "I say it doesn’t matter if we flew here or we swam here, it matters that we are here and we are one group and let us stop trying to make a litmus test for who is considered gay and who is not.
"I am very annoyed about this issue. Why can’t it be a choice? Why is that any less legitimate? It seems we’re just ceding this point to bigots who are demanding it, and I don’t think that they should define the terms of the debate."

Rihanna Trades Her Blunt For A Bikini

Unfortunately I’m landlocked, so I have to settle with paying a hillbilly to shoot bullets at me to dodge which, obviously, lacks the same panache. Unless I made him wear a shark costume. And a beret…
