Michelle "Bombshell" McGee's Vegas Photo Shoot

Under the spotlight after breaking what's turned into quite the affair scandal for Jesse James, Michelle "Bombshell" McGee has another batch of photo shoot pics hitting the Internet.

Taken during a session in Las Vegas in October 2009, the tattoo model proudly showed off her ink while clad in a skimpy black Motorhead tank top and leopard print leggings.

Meanwhile, Miss McGee angrily took to her social networking sites to shoot back at all of the inbound criticism, writing, "For all you internet warriors on here talking s--t...it's easy to place judgment when you're sitting behind a keyboard."

She continues, "Get off your God d**n high horse, your s**t don't smell like roses either. Let him who is without sin cast the first stone...in other words F**K YOU."

Hubble 3D

The IMAX screen is the ultimate planetarium in the awesome documentary Hubble 3D. It hurtles you into outer space, along with a crew that traveled 350 miles above Earth to repair the Hubble telescope (as the planet looms like a vast milky-blue wall, we feel we too are walking on air). Then it takes you to really outer space, where we float ''through'' the Hubble's miraculous images — a trippy grand canyon of matter, with nebulas like exploding roses. In a marvel of perspective, the 3-D reveals each galaxy to be a mere drop in the cosmic ocean, which is itself just another drop.

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

The Swedish-language thriller The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo inevitably simplifies some of the plot knots in Stieg Larsson's 2005 best-seller, a satisfyingly sordid tale of corruption, murder, and family secrets. But there's still enough sexual gruesomeness to justify the alternate title by which international audiences know the film: Men Who Hate Women. Indeed, the girl of the title attracts an outsize portion of that hate, perhaps because she looks so unlike all other women: Professional hacker Lisbeth Salander (Noomi Rapace) is pierced, inked, punked out, and as skinny as a street kid.

I don't know why Lisbeth is the magnet for so much male rage. Nor why Larsson and director Niels Arden Oplev linger on the sight of Lisbeth being hideously raped — and later punishing her tormentor with even more sadistic acts of violence. At least weather-beaten investigative journalist Mikael Blomkvist (Michael Nyqvist) treats Lisbeth nicely. Together they work to expose the evil in one rich, rotten family. (The Nazi skeletons in their closet reflect a particular interest of the author, who, until his death in 2004 at age 50, crusaded against right-wing extremism in Sweden.)

The film makes excellent use of the cold Scandinavian landscape to emphasize the story's gloomy loneliness. And Rapace and 
 Nyqvist have compelling chemistry. The two stars have shot the next two movies in Larsson's trilogy — and I look forward to them with a combination of squeamish fear of what tortures I'll see and queasy excitement about how Lisbeth Salander will handle the next skeevy guy.

Anna Nichole Smith's estate loses court fight

The estate of Anna Nichole Smith is not entitled to the $300 million that the late reality TV star was claiming from the heir of her oil-tycoon ex-husband, a federal appeals court in San Francisco ruled Friday.

The ruling follows a 10-year battle between the late Smith and the son of J. Howard Marshall, who was 89 when he married the 26-year-old model in 1994 a few years after they met at a strip club.

Smith had claimed that Marshall had promised her $300 million, and that his son, E. Pierce Marshall, used "fraud and undue influence" to have her removed from the will.

Friday's ruling confirmed an earlier ruling by a Texas jury that the money was not meant as a gift for Smith.

Smith died in 2007 from a prescription drug overdose. She is survived by her three-year-old daughter.

Ten Things You Never Knew About Dannii Minogue

As she reminds us what the pop world has been missing with a batch of reissues, we take a look at some facts you may not know about one of the top two Minogues in pop.

1. Born Danielle Jane Minogue on October 20, 1971 to Welsh dancer mum Carol and Australian accountant dad Ron, Dannii also has a famous older sibling... news cameraman Brendan!

2. She starred in Aussie TV shows Skyways and Sullivans as a 7-year-old before appearing on Young Talent Time. Dannii sang a cover of Madonna's 'Material Girl' on the programme's Now and Then album in 1985 and caused a riot at Sydney Shopping Centre in 1987 when 17,000 people mobbed the show's stars!

3. Dannii first came to our attention as Home and Away's spunky tomboy Emma Jackson in 1989. "The funniest thing happened in one of my first scenes," Dannii revealed. "In the beginning, Emma was really arrogant and punk and in every scene she would slam the door when she walked in or out. So I walked in and I slammed the door and everything fell off the wall on the set. I was so embarrassed and scared and so nervous about what everyone would say, but everyone just packed up laughing."

4. Dannii may have mentioned her successful relationship with model Kris Smith once or twice, but can you guess who she dated in the early '90s? No no, no no no no? That's right - 2 Unlimited rapper Ray Slijngaard! Minogue ended a brief marriage to fellow Home and Away alumnus Julian McMahon in 1995 - who you may now know as sleazy womaniser Dr Christian Troy from hit US drama Nip/Tuck.

5. That year, Dannii appeared in the Australian version of Playboy, wearing a very fetching pair of desert boots and nothing else. She later told Piers Morgan that she did the shoot to pay off her debts. "Kylie knew why I was doing it - I could have asked her for the money, but it wasn't in my nature," she said. "I don't regret it, but I feel relieved that people know why I did it - it's a huge weight off my shoulders. It was actually fun and I did feel liberated. I looked at the pictures and thought, 'I look alright!'"

6. She's best known for her X Factor role and "Is it a singing competition?" queries, but with five studio LPs and six comps of hits and mixes under her belt, Dannii's had a hell of a pop career herself. Her 1997 single 'All I Wanna Do' was co-written by one Brian Higgins, who later went on to found Xenomania - the production group that took Danni's future X Factor rival Cheryl Cole to the top of the charts with Girls Aloud.

7. But that didn't stop other stars sticking the boot in after she got the X Factor gig. Boyzone's Keith Duffy mocked our Danni for her advancing years and lead singer Ronan Keating added that she "hasn't got the X Factor anymore". The as-ever outspoken Noel Gallagher also stuck his plectrum in, claiming: "If there's one person in the room who wouldn't know talent if it kicked them in the arse it's Dannii Minogue." Ouch!

8. She may have gotten into a bit of trouble with her comments about Danyl Johnson's sexuality, but Dannii has always been vocal about the support of her gay fans. "Gays have always been a part of my music," she confirmed. "I have never jumped on the pink bandwagon to increase my popularity. It just came naturally. Gays love to have a good time and this is the perfect party record for them."

9. A good-time party girl herself, Dannii was forced to threaten legal action after the News of the World published leaked CCTV snaps of her kissing and fondling a naked female lapdancer. A spokesman described it as a "harmless girls' night out", adding: "They were having a great laugh, but only that."

10. Formerly a vegetarian and currently a pescetarian (which means she eats fish - for those of you who flunked Italian!), Dannii is also afraid of spiders but a big fan of snakes. "Yeah, they feel good," she explained. "They're all soft. In fact, they're great - except when they bite you!"

Toni Collette loves complex roles

Australian actress Toni Collette is glad her acting career is not based on her normal looks because she prefers to play "rich and complex" roles.

The 37-year-old who has played quirky roles such as Sheryl Hoover in "Little Miss Sunshine" and Muriel Heslop in "Muriel's Wedding" prefers meatier roles based on her ability as an actress rather than vapid roles which are given to beautiful female stars, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"My career has never been based on how I look, and I don't want it to be. I like my work, like my life, to be much deeper than that - that's something I've managed to escape. I think it's a dangerous pressure," she said.

"I would rather play somebody complex and rich and real than some feckless handbag," she added.

Ten Things You Never Knew About George Hamilton

Who is George Hamilton? That very question was ringing around the nation's living rooms on Sunday evening when he was revealed in the latest I'm A Celebrity... lineup. The 70-year-old has an impressive CV, but The Tanned One's focus on cameos, adverts and reality TV in recent years means that the majority of younger UK movie-goers are not too familiar with the dashing, Martini-swirling, well-bronzed Hollywood icon. Keep reading to find out ten facts about the veteran thespian

1. The Tanned One was born in Memphis on August 12, 1939 to Anne Potter Hamilton and George 'Spike' Hamilton. His mother has been described in the past as a "gregarious Southern belle beauty".

2. From his first big screen starring role, 1959's Crime & Punishment, Hamilton was destined for greatness. Despite being a relative rookie, he took home a Golden Globe and BAFTA nomination for the film and earned a reputation as a heartthrob.

3. During his film career, Hamilton has appeared in a number of biopics, playing numerous legendary stars. His most notable roles include playwright Moss Hart (Act One), Hank Williams (Your Cheatin' Heart) and Evel Knievel (Evel Knievel).

4. Famed for his love of wine, women and song, the Martini-swirling cad's most famous romance came in 1966. At the peak of his Hollywood powers, Hamilton squired President Lyndon B. Johnson's daughter Lynda Bird.

5. The acting work may have dropped off in recent years, but Hamilton has remained in the public eye in the US thanks to a series of commercials for Ritz Cracker and (Toasted!) Wheat Thins.

6. Hamilton may never have visited the Australian jungle or spent time with Katie Price before, but he knows a thing or two about reality TV. He hosted The Family in 2003, which pitted members of an Italian family against each other for a $1m prize. He also took part in the 2005 series of ABC's Dancing With The Stars, finishing in fifth place.

7. Hamilton decided to cash in on his nickname 'The Tanned One' in the 1980s by opening his own chain of tanning salons and launching a line of skincare products.

8. Don't be surprised to hear George having a sing-song around the I'm A Celebrity... camp fire. He released the track 'Don't Envy Me' in 1963. Sadly, the single was a flop, landing at number 134 on the Billboard chart.

9. Hamilton was the hot favourite to take over from Bob Barker on US quiz show The New Price Is Right in 2007. Unfortunately, despite testing out for the job, Hamilton was pipped by Drew Carey.

10. If you want to know even more about Hamilton, you could do worse than checking out the Renée Zellweger/Chris Noth/Kevin Bacon film My One and Only. The movie is a dramatisation of the actor's early life.

Tiger Woods' mistress in torrid threesome

In the latest claim of infidelity against Tiger Woods, a third X-rated film star has claimed that the golfer paid her and another woman 2000 dollars each for a threesome.

Devon James, a Florida-based “adult entertainer”, claimed in a radio interview on March 23 that she met Woods, 34, just prior to their first three-way encounter, which went on for over two and half years.


“Hi, I’m Tiger. Nice to meet you,” the New York Daily News quoted her as quoting Woods saying before they quickly got down to business.

James said when she met Tiger, there were porno movies playing on the television set and the other woman - also an adult entertainer - was already in the room.

“There was very little talk the first time,” James said of the 2006 encounter.

Woods immediately asked for her personal phone number when the sex session was over, and the affair continued into 2008, she claimed.

James said she had phone records verifying her claim of a relationship with Tiger, and said that Woods, who will return to the links next month, sent her nasty text messages.

“I want you to be my whore”, was one that summed up Woods’ sentiments, she said.

James revealed that Woods, who is trying to repair his marriage to Elin Nordegren, complained during their second meeting that his wife didn’t like to have sex.

The porn star, who portrays a sexy mom in her films, said she initially said nothing about her liaisons with Woods because she felt bad for him.

Back Into Hiding

It looked like was beginning to deal with her husband Jesse James’ affair with Michelle “Bombshell” McGee, but when Sandra Bullock found out about three more mistresses, it all went downhill.

The “Proposal” actress actually returned to Los Angeles earlier this week after having spent time with family in Texas. But it sounds like she’s disappeared once again.

An insider told press, “She’s devastated. She’s beyond upset. And she has every right to be. She was on top of the world with her Oscar victory and now this. It’s such a difficult thing to deal with.”

“She has a tight circle of friends. They won’t say much about her. They want to protect her. And that’s because she’s been nice to everyone along the way. She’s not stuck up. She doesn’t act like a star. She acts like a normal, sweet person, which is exactly what she is. And that’s why everyone is so loyal to her.”

The 19-year-old actress knew she wanted the role of rocker Joan in the movie, but had problems with the singing aspect of the film, reported contactmusic.com. "I said that I wanted to do it as soon as someone said, 'There's a Joan Jett movie, and they want you to play her.'

"The most difficult thing was the performances, because I'm not a performer. The singing stuff, you learn so much about yourself. I don't know how to be more specific about it," she said.

Sandra split stripper poses in Nazi style

The stripper and tattoo model linked to this week's split between Oscar winner Sandra Bullock and her husband posed for pictures in Nazi regalia and had racist symbols inked on her legs, the celebrity website TMZ reported Friday.

The website published photos of Michelle "Bombshell" McGee sporting a swastika armband and Nazi hat and said that the letters W and P were tattooed on her legs, which the model claimed stood for White Power.

The new pictures surfaced a day after Bullock's husband Jesse James apologized publicly for the alleged affair. Reports also said that McGee had been paid $30,000 by In Touch magazine for divulging the details of her affair with James, who became a reality TV star thanks to his business of customising motorcycles.

McGee's claims prompted Bullock to cancel plans to attend the London premiere of her hit film The Blind Side and also to leave the family home, according to People magazine.

In a statement to People.com, James, 40, insisted that the "vast majority of allegations reported are untrue and unfounded".

But he went on to accept responsibility for the imbroglio.

"There is only one person to blame for this whole situation, and that is me. It's because of my poor judgment that I deserve everything bad that is coming my way," he said.

"This has caused my wife and kids pain and embarrassment beyond comprehension and I am extremely saddened to have brought this on them. I am truly very sorry for the grief I have caused them. I hope one day they can find it in their hearts to forgive me."

The marital crisis came less than two weeks after Bullock won a best actress Oscar for The Blind Side. In her winning speech, she lavished praise on her husband. Ironically it was while she was away filming that the alleged affair took place.

The incident prompted tabloids to report about an "Oscar curse" that befalls winners of the best actress prize. Previous winners who split from their partners within a year of their victories include Reese Witherspoon, Halle Berry, Julia Roberts and - after her 2009 win - Kate Winslet.
Susan Sarandon, who won in 1996, has also split from her partner.

Doherty praises British penal system

Troubled English singer Pete Doherty has branded the British prison system a success, insisting jailing criminals stops them offending.

The "Babyshambles" frontman has spent several periods behind bars during his seven-year battle against heroin and crack cocaine addiction, including a stint in 2003 for even burgling his former bandmate Carl Barat's apartment, reports contactmusic.com.

He is adamant time in prison won't help to reform criminals, but insists jailing them works because crooks can't offend while they're locked away.

"It keeps you off the street, doesn't it? It works in that way. But it doesn't stop you offending... Not through rehabilitation. Prison works, because it stops you committing crime," he said.

I can relate to Percy: Logan Lerman

In a candid interview 18 year-old heartthrob Logan Lerman on the experience of working on Percy Jackson & The Lightning Thief and his passion for acting

How did you land this part?
When I was approached about the film and heard that Chris Columbus was directing, I said: ‘Man I have to be a part of this’. Chris was my hero growing up. The Harry Potter films just blew me away. When I read the first Percy Jackson book I liked it a lot. Chris is a fantastic, brilliant filmmaker and I am so happy to be part of this film.

Who is Percy Jackson and what is the story all about?
The movie starts off with a dilemma because Zeus has lost his powerful lightening bolt and they are all pointing fingers at Percy Jackson. But Percy himself has no idea who he is and knows nothing about his background. He is thrown into this dangerous situation and has to save the world and his mom.

Does it feel like a big responsibility playing Percy?
It does not feel like pressure. I didn’t realise what I had got myself into when I started out. The scale of the film and what it meant hit me only when we started filming. And you know it is a big responsibility. I just have to step up and try to do my part to make it good.

So you think that teenagers will be able to identify with Percy?
Yes, a lot of people will be able to relate to Percy. Kids will know what he’s going through. The story proves that when someone is thrown into a difficult situation, they can rise to the challenge.

Can you relate to Percy?
In some ways I can. But the best thing about playing a character though, you don’t need to relate to every part of the character you are going to play. You just need to find a way to understand him and get into that emotion and feeling of who he is.

What kind of teenager would you say you are? An adventurer like Percy?
I’m boring. I’m a boring person (laughs) not at all like most teenagers. My best friend Dean Collins, who is also an actor, and I are both film geeks. We do nothing but study film all day-long, film and music. That’s me as a teenager.”

Are you prepared for the changes that might happen to you once this movie comes out?
To be honest, it is interesting. People are just going to be screaming: ‘Percy Jackson’ all the time. And I’m going to be known as Grover everywhere, it’s going to be crazy. But somehow I can’t imagine people knowing who I am from any movie. So if that does happen, I will be very surprised.

Hugh Grant ends party with food fight

British actor Hugh Grant ended a glitzy party in London with a food fight after allegedly becoming embroiled in a spat with his former public relations manager.

The "Notthing Hill" star was attending a birthday bash at nightspot Annabel's Wednesday night when his former representative, PR guru Matthew Freud, overheard the actor allegedly making a disparaging comment about him, reports contactmusic.

Freud is said to have left the party, while Grant was given a clean shirt to change into by venue staff and carried on with the festivities, partying with stars including his ex-girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley and Sir Michael Caine.

MJ's mum fumes over interrupted CPR on dying son

Michael Jackson’s mother Katherine hit the roof after a report claimed the singer’s personal doctor interrupted CPR on her dying son and delayed calling 911 to stash drugs from paramedics.

Katherine, 79, is now demanding that the single charge of involuntary manslaughter against Dr. Conrad Murray be upgraded to that of a second degree murder following the new allegations.

"Mrs. Jackson never doubted that this man murdered her son, and these new revelations, if true, mean we need additional charges to fit the severity of his crimes," the New York Daily News quoted her attorney Adam Streisand as saying.

"Second degree murder requires malice aforethought, which can be implied by the conduct of the defendant. The actions alleged suggest that Dr. Murray abandoned his duties as a physician or an ordinary human being to save himself rather than his patient," he added.

Murray’s legal team has rejected the claims, arguing the leaked account by witness Alberto Alvarez, Jackson’s logistics director, was inconsistent.

Murray, has denied the charge and pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter. He admitted administering Propofol to help Jackson sleep hours before his death but said he gave him nothing to cause his death.

Jackson died aged 50 on June 25 last year at his home in Los Angeles. Coroners ruled the case as homicide mainly caused by an overdose of the anesthetic Propofol.

The next hearing has been set for April 5.

Whitney Port 'sued over fashion line'

Whitney Port is reportedly being sued by a fellow fashion designer.

According to People, the City star was helped by designer Adrienne Baravetto in 2007 when the celebrity's fashion line was called Eve & A.

Baravetto claims that she did all the design work and was promised an $80,000 (£53,000) yearly salary and a 25% stake in the company, but is yet to be reimbursed.

"The lawsuit that Adrienne Baravetto filed on March 19, 2010 against Whitney Eve, Inc, Whitney Port and others regarding the Whitney Eve clothing line is baseless and without merit. Whitney Port is, and always has been, the designer of Whitney Eve," said Port's lawyer.

"Baravetto worked for Whitney Eve for a short period of time ending in early 2008. For more than two years, she has been silent. For reasons that we will uncover, she has decided to make these unsubstantiated allegations at this time. The defendants will vigourously defend themselves, and upon the successful conclusion of this lawsuit in their favour, they intend to hold Baravetto and her counsel accountable for their reckless conduct."

On the contrary, Baravetto's attorney countered: "Ms Baravetto did the heavy lifting for these designs and she just wants to get paid fairly."

Rs. 3 billion riding on Aishwarya Rai

Last year she was seen in just one film - Hollywood's "Pink Panther". But this year Aishwarya Rai has four films lined up for release - two southern projects "Ravana" and "Endhiran" as well as "Action Replay" and "Guzaarish", collectively costing over Rs.300 crore (Rs.3 billion).

While her bilingual sci-fi film "Endhiran", starring southern star Rajnikanth, is said to be made at a budget of Rs.125 crore (Rs.1.25 billion), approximately Rs.45 crore (Rs.450 million) has been spent on Mani Ratnam's much-awaited "Ravana", which is set for a June release.

Vipul Shah's "Action Replay" costs around Rs.60 crore (Rs.600 million) and if reports are to be believed, UTV is shelling out close to Rs.80 crore (Rs. 800 million) for Sanjay Leela Bhansali-directed "Guzaarish" for which Aishwarya is currently shooting along with Hrithik Roshan in Mumbai.

Aishwarya has been busy shooting all these films for the past one year and even suffered health problems due to her hectic schedules.

According to a well-placed source from the team of "Ravana", the Hindi version of which also features Abhishek Bachchan, the actress has given some of the most difficult shots in the movie without complaining about geographical or weather conditions used to can the scenes.

"Aishwarya's role in 'Ravana' is the toughest. In the Hindi version, Vikram (southern star) plays Ram and Ravana in the Tamil vesrion. And Aishwarya plays Sita in both the Hindi and Tamil versions.

Both the versions were simultaneously shot. Mani Ratnam canned the film in the most difficult and dangerous places. Still Aishwarya gave the same shots twice for the two versions - be it in the rain, on mountains, jungle, etc, " a source told.

"People say Vikram's role in the film is the toughest, but the actor himself feels Aishwarya's role is the most difficult, " the source added.

While shooting for "Ravana" in the jungles of Kerala, the entire cast and crew had a scary experience when an elephant ran amok and killed a 51-year-old mahout, Andavan. The actors including Abhishek, Aishwarya, Vikram, Prabhu and Munna had to take shelter in a guest house and survived on bread and eggs.

"Ravana" is said to be a modern-day version and a loose adaptation of the Hindu epic Ramayana.

Apart from "Ravana", Aishwarya's role in another southern project "Endhiran" has been a well-guarded secret till now, but some leaked photographs of the film's shooting show her in a different avatar.

"Action Replay", starring Akshay Kumar, is a time-travel tale in the 1950s and its storyline is based on an eponymous 1994 Gujarati Indian play. The director has emphasised a lot on the lead actors' "retro looks" in the movie.

"We, Akshay's designer Shabina Khan, Aishwarya's designer Manish Malhotra and all of us have worked really, really hard to give 'Action Replay' a unique look. If that look is leaked out, we'd lose our biggest USP, " Shah had told.

In "Guzaarish", the actress will play a married nurse who falls in love with a paraplegic patient essayed by Hrithik.

Though each role is different from the others, it remains to be seen which one of these strikes gold at the box office.

Very supporting Manisha Koirala

Manisha Koirala had acted in the female lead roles in blockbuster films 'Bombay' and 'Mudhalvan'. Lastly, she was spotted performing female lead opposite Superstar Rajnikanth in 'Baba' and later avoided acting in Tamil films as she concentrated in Hindi films.

After a long gap she is back in Tamil film through 'Mappillai', which is a remake of yesteryear super hit film with the same title.

Manish Koirala is donning the role of Dhanush's mother-in-law in this film. When asked he whether she was disappointed donning the role of an elderly mother-in-law role, she said, ” I always feel that I am an actress first.

Earlier I had acted as mother of two children in the film Bombay. I was 22 years old then. Now I am not disappointed doing the role of mother-in-law. It is most pleasurable experience acting in Mappillai.

Dhanush is a talented actor. He works very hard. I have not seen the whole film of Rajni starrer Mappillai. I had seen only some few scenes. I don't want to reflect the character precisely. I am doing this role in my own style.

Adding more, she uttered, “I am happy that I am back in Tamil films. I met my old friend Aravindsamy. I relished the Chettinad food dishes. I went to Tirupathi temple.

I had bought lot of clothes. There was a lot of gap in Tamil films after Baba. I did not act in Tamil films because I did not get good stories. I have got a meatier role in Mappillai. I have also been signed for a Malayalam film.”

Hot Nagma to marry soon

Nagma was a popular and famous actress in the Tamil film industry, a few years ago. She had acted in many Tamil films including Rajni starrer Baasha, Kadhalan and Love Birds.

She was also a leading actress in Hindi, Telugu and Bhojpuri. Then all of a sudden she quit film and forayed into politics. Off the late, she embarked a new journey of preaching about Christianity.

There were rumors that she was in love with Bhojpuri actor Ravi Kishan and of course, some of the media channels published this fake news, which was later denied by the du and was later romantically linked with cricketer Ganguly.

Now she herself has announced about her marriage. She said, ” My marriage will take place this year. I will announce about the bridegroom shortly.

There were rumors linking me with director Deepak, Bhojpuri actor Ravi Kishan and cricket player Ganguly. All these relations were purely business related. There is no truth in these rumors.”

Ten Things You Never Knew About Larry Lamb

Playing the loveable Michael 'Mick' Shipman in Gavin & Stacey and the shifty, Machiavellian Archie Mitchell in EastEnders, Larry Lamb has won himself a whole new generation of TV fans in recent years. However, the London-born thespian has been doing the rounds since the late '70s, when he starred in shows such as The Professionals and The New Avengers. Keep reading to find out more about the 62-year-old soap star.

1. Lawrence 'Larry' Douglas Lamb was born on October 10, 1947 in Edmonton, London.

2. Name a crime drama or cop show and Larry has probably starred in it! His TV credits include Frost, Taggart, Boon, Kavanagh QC, Midsomer Murders, The Bill and Silent Witness. Phew - he must have seen quite a few murders in his time!

3. Larry's early career in the oil industry led him to working around the world in Libya and Canada. It was during his time in Canada, where he studied at St. Francis Xavier University, that he developed his passion for performing arts.

4. Most people know by now that Larry's son is the infamous BBC 6 Music DJ and Big Brother's Little Brother host George. What you probably don't know, however, is that the duo are currently working on a TV show together. The programme will be about "fathers and sons", according to Larry. He is also developing a new one-man show, which he will tour in 2010.

5. George is apparently very tired of people believing that his father is as evil as his EastEnders character Archie Mitchell. "I get in cabs in the morning and people are like, 'Oi! You better tell your old man he's evil'. I'm like guys, 'He's not evil, he's acting!'" George told DS.

6. He may not be one of the longest-running roles in the soap's history, but Larry has loved playing an EastEnders bad guy. The 62-year-old says that Dot (June Brown) and Peggy (Barbara Windsor) are his favourite characters and he has close friendships with co-stars Samantha Womack (Ronnie Mitchell), Rita Simons (Roxy Mitchell) and Jim Branning (John Bardon).

7. Before Gavin & Stacey, Larry's biggest TV stint was arguably the 1981 to 1983 nautical North Sea soap Triangle. Lamb starred alongside Kate O'Mara in the show, which was generally mocked for its dodgy scripts and clichéd plots. In 1992, the BBC included the programme in an evening dedicated to the worst series ever made, titled TV Hell.

8. Larry did briefly break into Hollywood in the late '70s and early '80s with minor roles in two Superman films. In Superman III, he was even granted a speaking part as Miner #2.

9. Where does Larry get his inspiration to play the twisted Archie Mitchell? His own father of course. "My dad was a very screwed-up man and emotionally damaged from his childhood," he says. "He had a terrible relationship with his own father and I imagine it was the same for the generations before that. Just like Archie, my dad was absolutely convinced of his rightness and his sanity and thought he was completely justified in everything he did. Everybody else is at fault, but he's fine. Archie is the same. As far as he's concerned, he's perfectly sane. But the truth is, he's twisted."

10. Before his acting career took off, what did Larry do to keep himself in pocket? Well, his jobs ranged from selling encyclopaedias to American soldiers in Germany to working as a corrosion control technician for Esso in the US.

Hemsworth is Miley's serious boyfriend

Hanna Montana" star Miley Cyrus has admitted that Aussie actor Liam Hemsworth is her "first serious boyfriend".

The 17-year-old star, who was previously involved with Nick Jonas and model Justin Gaston, insists after meeting "The Last Song" co-star Hamsworth, she now knows what real love is, reports dailystar.co.uk.

"Nick and I were so young. We really did have a genuine love, but it wasn't like this. We met when I was 12. I didn't know who I was," she said.

Cyrus admits she thought she had found her soulmate in Gaston, who was "a good person and so carefree," and she sobbed for days when they split last summer - but then she met her new man.

She added: "The last thing I was expecting was to fall in love. I went there (film set) thinking the summer was about me and getting focused on my career. But I guess God was like, 'Girl, here is this amazing guy'."

Rahul’s swayamvar cheap

She usually goes with a ‘no comments’ response when enquired about Rahul Mahajan’s wedding on reality TV, but for once, Payal Rohatgi is ready to call a spade a spade. And she calls this one a “cheap show.”

“I understand reality shows are the flavour of the season, and Bigg Boss got me the kind of publicity that nothing else did. But you have to have limits to how far you can go to get what you want. This swayamvar on television looks like a very desperate bid to get money and fame,” says Payal. “The next reality show on TV will be what? A honeymoon or a child’s delivery?” she asks, apparently disgusted at the thought, and then adds, “I wouldn’t want to jeopardise my career by being part of something like this.”


That, of course, doesn’t mean that Payal has had enough of reality TV. She almost agreed to do another reality show - one being made on the backdrop of a village - but backed out later. And she’s now training her sight on Bollywood. “I know television is a strong medium today but I want to grow as a film actor,” she says. “Also, doing TV is very strenuous. It takes a toll on you. I did one show in 2008 (Bigg Boss Season 2) and spent the whole of 2009 recouping from it,” she laughs. “On the other hand, movies have their own pace and time, you know, they have more substantive roles to offer to an actor.”

And the movie she will be giving her time to requires her to get into the shoes of a television journalist. Payal doesn’t want to say too much too soon and would rather wait for the movie to go on the floor before talking about it, but she does tell us that the film is being made around 26/11 and shows “how journalists need to control their emotions even at such precarious times and yet work to secure TRPs for their channels.”

And while she doesn’t feel she needs to do too much homework - having seen enough TV journalists in her life - for this role, she does take acting seriously. And there’s reason to believe that. With some free time on hand, she has signed up for theatre workshops with Quasar Padamsee - Dolly and Alyque Padamsee’s son. “I thought it would help me improve my acting skills,” she shares.

Heidi Montag's New Tits Photos

Remember the big fuzz a few weeks ago after Heidi Montag announced she had increased her boob size by two letter Ds? Apparently the final difference is not very noticeable...

The star of The Hills went out for a night in the town with her husband last night. This is the first time that Heidi Montag shows herself in public without a jacket, therefore it's the first chance we get to actually get a good close look at her so-talked-about breasts.

But to our disappointment Heidi Montag's tits don't seem to be much bigger than they used to be. Judging by these photos, she either had those bad boys strapped down tight, or she didn't actually end up being a Triple D.

I suggest she shows us her boobs so we can make a more educated guess!

Cheryl Cole wants to date a man


Girls Aloud" star Cheryl Cole wants to date pot bellied man.

The "Fight for This Love" hitmaker - who separated from her soccer player husband Ashley Cole following the exposure of his string of affairs - has vowed she will never be romantically involved with a toned, muscular man again.

She wants her next lover to be a normal guy with a rounded stomach, reports femalefirst.

When asked what type of men attracts her attention on the beach, she said, "A guy could be in the Speedos and be ripped to within an inch of his life and I don't think I'd look again.

"It would have to be the Bermuda shorts and the pot belly."

Cole is also keen to do a cameo role in a movie or on her favourite TV show "Coronation Street".

"I would love to play a cameo. I wouldn't mind doing that if I could just speak in my accent, be me in something for half an hour, I would enjoy that. But I can't see myself being an actress. I love music," she added.

Katy Perry wants to marry in church

Singer Katy Perry wants to get married to her fiance Russell Brand in a church.

The "I Kissed A Girl" singer whose parents Mary and Keith Hudson are both Christian pastors reportedly told her fiance that she wanted to tie the knot at a location close to her Los Angeles home, but turned down his suggestion of a recording studio at the Sunset Marquis hotel, reports contactmusic.com.

"Russell has been visiting the hotel for years and it is steeped in rock 'n' roll history. It's in the middle of West Hollywood, but it has beautiful gardens and you feel like you are in some kind of tranquil paradise," said a source.

"Katy was keen but when it was suggested that they could have their blessing in one of the recording studios, she put her foot down. Her religious parents would be crushed if she didn't get married in a church," he added.

Ten Things You Never Knew About Derren Brown

Derren Brown first came to the attention of the telly-watching public at the turn of the decade, but his major breakthrough happened in 2003 with the one-off Russian Roulette special. Since then, Derren's astounded and amazed with show after show, boasting his skills as a magician and "mentalist" (though, perhaps given its playground connotations, he's not too keen on the latter label). With the threat of boring us all with his talent, this was the year that Brown really managed the impossible by shocking us all over again, when he screwed up the finalé of his live How To Take Down A Casino event... or did he?

1. Born on February 27, 1971, that really is his name. On often being called Darren, he said: "My proper birth name is Derren, so it's inevitable really. But let me tell you, I absolutely draw the line at being called 'Derek'."

2. Now famously a sceptic, atheist and mate of Richard Dawkins, Derren was an evangelical Christian in his younger days. "I believed in God, Jesus and Satan (ish)," he explained. "My teenage self: a bouncing, clapping awfulness who could think of nothing more rewarding than to try to convert his unspeakably tolerant friends to the sanctimonious life he knew as a believer."

3. The change happened at Bristol University, where he formally studied German and Law, and also picked up hypnotism for kicks. He wasn't the coolest student in class, though. "I was no stranger to purple and green boots and a floral shirt, bowtie and braces, oblivious to how objectionable I must have been."

4. Derren first came to the public's attention with his Mind Control show in 2000. Like his books and series since, the programme showed off his ability to pen a zinger as much as his other skills. An enduring classic had him inform us that: "I control the conditions so my testers become my testees."

5. After years of being asked, "Do you use your skills to pick up the girls?" Derren broke a million female hearts (and set the same number of men's aflutter) when he came out in 2007. "People generally aren't as bothered by your intimate secrets as you are. It took me being in a relationship with a guy for a month before I told anyone I was thus inclined," he revealed. "If anything, I was disappointed to learn it wasn't much of a surprise. Possibly my penchant for interior decor had given the game away."

6. This year, Derren won Heat magazine's backhanded compliment of its 'Weird Crush Of The Year' gong. Everyone's least unfavourite comedian Michael McIntyre was chuffed to be named seventh, but complained: "Derren Brown won it, I suspect foul play. He's a mind manipulator! Of course he won it!"

7. Derren's breakthrough Russian Roulette show was condemned by the police who feared copycats, though none happened. More controversial was the follow-up Séance, where a group of people contacted a dead student (who wasn't actually dead). "Seems the séance has become the most complained-about show," he noted at the time. "It received 700 complaints. I might add that the prospect of me blowing my head off on live TV last year attracted only 20. Fair enough, I suppose."

8. When he's not messing with our heads, Derren messes with the faces of celebrities. A skilled painter, his speciality is acrylic celebrity caricatures, with his self-portrait, Madonna and Woody Allen being among the best. If you're too lazy to get to a gallery, you can buy prints of his work or his Portraits book, which collects the lot with some commentary from the man himself.

9. After accidentally being dragged into a press-manufactured sparring match with Derek Acorah, Brown once found himself accidentally in the same Swansea hotel lobby as the 'medium' and his Ghost Towns co-host Myleene Klass. The ex-Hear'Say star said that there could only be "one winner" in the supposed contest and urged Brown to diffuse the row by telling the press that "Derek does his thing and I do mine". He declined.

10. Derren owned a parrot for ten years before giving it to The National Parrot Sanctuary where he is now a patron. "They're such intelligent creatures. My parrot was called Figaro and I gave him to the sanctuary. He got quite aggressive," he said. "Sadly, he passed away after living it up with the other parrots. I wanted to stuff him but he'd rotted in his nesting box by the time they found him."

Britney splits from boyfriend

Pop singer Britney Spears has reportedly broken up with her boyfriend Jason Trawick.

The couple had parted ways in February after about a year of dating. "They were fighting a lot and have not been getting along," the source said. However, the singer's representative has yet to confirm the reports.

Last year it was reported that Spears proposed to Trawick, who is also her agent, while she was on tour in Australia. When he said no, she told him to take the next plane back to the US. But the news was neither confirmed nor denied, reports hollyscoop.com.

"They both just needed to take a break from each other. It wasn't working out," the source added.

Though they are not dating anymore, Trawick still represents Spears as her agent at William Morris.

Zeta-Jones wants remake of film with Douglas

Hollywood actress Catherine Zeta-Jones has expressed a desire for a remake of her first onscreen role with star husband Michael Douglas in 1989 black comedy "War of the Roses".

The Welsh beauty admits she "definitely" wants to star alongside the "Wall Street" actor on the big screen even though she feels "voyeuristic" watching real-life couples, like former spouses Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, play lovers in a film, reports contactmusic.com. Zeta-Jones, who's been married to Douglas since 2000, however insists the pair would make a perfect match for the thriller, about a couple in a vicious divorce battle.

"Sometimes I find it (couples starring together in films) really strange. I know that Nicole and Tom did it a few times...But I would like to remake 'War of the Roses' with my husband, where we try to kill each other," she said.
