Courtney Love has credited actor Orlando Bloom with helping her to stay off drugs.

The singer said Bloom changed her life by introducing her to Buddhist chanting.

She told Access Hollywood: "We chant every day. The 12-step programme demands that you have a spiritual practice that you do daily."

The 43-year-old added: "I love Orlando for this. He doesn't mind being outed as a Buddhist. I don't mind talking about it because it has changed my entire life, changed everything - restructured my body, restructured my physicality. Truly I can, not all the time, but I can take joy at really s****y situations."

It hasn’t been a very fun year for Lily Allen so far. First she suffered a miscarriage, then her boyfriend Ed Simmons dumped her. And then yesterday she got a parking ticket!

The “Smile” singer was spotted risking a second ticket by parking on a doctor’s bay as she returned home last evening. But she didn’t seem to care.

And why would she? Allen has reportedly been “heartbroken” since her ex-boyfriend threw in the towel on their relationship. It seems they couldn’t keep it together after the tragedy of her miscarriage.

When the paps questioned the “Littlest Things” singer as to her single status, she replied angrily, “F**k off and mind your own business.” And a friend of the singer told press, “They tried to make things work but they couldn’t. The miscarriage was a horrible experience for both of them. Lily is devastated things haven’t worked out for her and Ed. But there is a big age difference and the miscarriage was too much to cope with so early on.”

Looking better each and every day, British soul singer Amy Winehouse was spotted as she exited her central London rehab clinic to go for a walk on Monday (February 4).

The Rehab singer is currently undergoing treatment for drug addiction at the Capio Nightingale Clinic, which has put a mission to save her favorite local pub on hold.

According to People magazine reports, “Before she entered into the treatment center, Amy suggested selling t-shirts to campaign against a planned apartment development which, opponents say, will ruin the bar’s unusual 360-degree light.”
“Amy’s a friend, so I went to her flat to see her and she was there with her hairdresser Alex [Foden],” the pub’s landlady Pauline Forster told People, adding, “We started talking about the way forward and she said, ‘We’ve got to do a Save The George t-shirt.’”

But Foster has been unable to contact Amy since she checked into rehab. Foster tells: “She’s not well, so nobody’s allowed to contact her. I spoke to her on the phone twice before she went into rehab, and I’ve spoken to her father a couple of times. He told me I could write her a letter, so I sent a handwritten one and popped a t-shirt in the post.”

With Brad Pitt in the audience and her latest director Clint Eastwood to present her with the Santa Barbara International Film Festival's Outstanding Performance of the Year Award for A Mighty Heart, Angelina Jolie signed autographs and posed for photos Saturday night with scores of fans who filled the streets.

She then took to the stage to discuss her career and reveal a few candid nuggets from her off-screen life.

Among Angelina's revelations:

• She retains fond memories of sharing a single acting scene in Tomb Raider with her father Jon Voight, from whom she's currently estranged. "Strangely enough, the scene was about a daughter and her father who had not spent their lives together and had a lot of questions for each other ...[It was] kind of therapeutic for us to get some things out and talk. We spent that time as two artists, and it was a special time. It was an important time."

• When her ex-husband and Pushing Tin costar Billy Bob Thornton was mentioned, she said, "I thought he was an amazing artist, and still is."

• Prior to screening the famous tango scene clip from Mr. & Mrs. Smith, she was asked if she or Pitt was the better dancer: "I think we're about equal," she replied. "Equally not so good."

• Despite starring in several high-tech productions, she's technologically challenged in real life: "As Brad knows, I don't really how to turn on a computer."

• After back-to-back clips featuring romantic scenes with Brad in Mr. & Mrs. Smith and her and Matt Damon in The Good Shepherd, Jolie said she looked like she was "out on one date and went out on another." Given the choice between former [Pitt] and current [Damon] holders of PEOPLE's "Sexiest Man Alive" title, she said, "I'm going with the first one."

• Both she and Pitt were initially reluctant to take on their roles in Mr. & Mrs. Smith, but "obviously I'm very glad I did it – It changed my life."

• Asked if her humanitarian efforts were an even greater passion than acting, she chose a third alternative: "I love being a mom, and I think that's my big passion: being with my family."

Scoring a guest role on a top-rated show that airs directly after the Super Bowl is quite a touchdown, but that’s not what attracted the “not very sports savvy” Mira Sorvino to her gig on Sunday’s episode of House. It’s actually her favorite show. In fact, being on the set made her so excited she felt like a “stupid kid.” During a recent press conference, the Oscar-winning actress talked TV and revealed the show she would love to do — if only her management would let her.

“I’m a crazy House fan,” says Sorvino, who also made that fact abundantly clear to Hugh Laurie years ago when the two met up at the Golden Globe Awards. So when the writers came up with “one of the best female characters they’d ever written” — a psychiatrist trapped at the South Pole who falls ill and needs Dr. House to treat her via web cam — they tapped Sorvino to play the role. Though only one episode, there’s been talk it could turn into more after the writers’ strike ends. “I would love to come back for an extended arc,” she says. “It would be fun.”

When not watching House, Sorvino says must-see TV for her is So You Think You Can Dance?.

Are fans of "High School Musical" and Ziggy Stardust about to have an awkward meeting of the minds?

According to The Hollywood Reporter, David Bowie is in talks to play an unspecified role in the coming-of-age comedy "Will," which will star "HSM" leading lady Vanessa Hudgens.

Also added to the cast of the Walden Media/ Summit Entertainment co-production are Liam Aiken and Lisa Kudrow, who join Hudgens, Aly Michalka and Scott Porter.

Todd Graff and Josh Cagan wrote "Will," which focuses on a high school outcast (Aiken) who forms an unexpected bond and an unexpected band with the most popular girl in school (Hudgens). The story culminates at their school's battle of the bands.

Kudrow will play the mother of Aiken's character.

Best known as one of the most influential musicians of the past 40 years, Bowie's acting credits include "The Hunger," "The Last Temptation of Christ" and, most recently, "The Prestige."

Aiken was last seen in "Fay Grim" and "Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events."

"Friends" and "The Comeback" star Kudrow was featured in the December release "P.S. I Love You." She has "Powder Blue" and "Hotel For Dogs" on tap.[source]

Aaron Carter has updated his official My Space profile with a cryptic message for "Hilary"

His message: "EVERYBODY MAKES MISTAKES, BUT YOU LIVE AND YOU LEARN. HILARY WHEN YOUR READY. IM HERE. I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR WHOMEVER PUT THIS TOGETHER. IT MEANS A LOT TO ME."

what did you just say little boy

The thank you is in regards to a You Tube video that some fan named SCSweetdude16 in tribute to the love that Aaron and Hilary used to share when they were together and wishes they still shared today ... and is posted right underneath his message (click HERE to watch it -- it'll make more sense). Hahhahahaha ... could a reconciliation be in the works? Could Aaron and Hilary make it work again? I guess only time will tell ... and perhaps in the meantime Aaron will learn the difference between "your" and "you're" and will learn how to use the right one properly.

High School Musical heartthrob wants to show his commitment

Teen heartthrob Zac Efron has given his girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens a diamond ring.

The High School Musical star, 20, splashed out on the heart-shaped sparkler, designed by Paloma Picasso, to prove how committed he is to their relationship.

'It's adorable and age-appropriate for Vanessa,' a friend tells In Touch Weekly. 'It's from him, so she loves it.'

The pair have kept their blossoming romance out of the media spotlight since the release of High School Musical 2.

But last October Vanessa admitted that they were together. Her publicist confirmed that her new music video for Say OK was their official 'coming out' as a couple.

TOP 20

20. Bar Refaeli - Bar Refaeli gained tons of media attention in 2007, owing largely to her much-publicized relationship with Leonardo DiCaprio. But that's not what got her on our list... her unique and stunning looks did. The gorgeous Bar will be on the cover of the February 2008 issue of Arena magazine, which bestowed on her the title of The Best Body of 2008. Also look for her in the English-language film Session.


19. Miranda Kerr - Who wasn't wowed by Miranda Kerr strutting down the catwalk in the 2007 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show? Decked out in gold and Christmas ornaments, we knew readers would go ga-ga over this Australian beauty, which is why she has such a high ranking on our Top 99. And she was thrilled to have made the list. She says, "It really is such a compliment to be listed among so many beautiful women from all around the world in the AskMen.com's Top 99 Most Desirable Women list. A big thank-you to everyone who voted."

18. Cheryl Tweedy - Cheryl Tweedy (now Cheryl Cole, following her 2006 marriage to Chelsea and England footballer Ashley Cole) is proof that dreams can come true. She earned a spot on ITV1’s Popstars: The Rivals, and she and four girls were chosen to form the extremely successful band Girls Aloud. With a gorgeous hottie like Cheryl Tweedy (Cole) in your group, how could fans not flock to live performances? We weren't surprised that she ranked so highly on our Top 99... just look at her.

17. Maggie Q - The beautiful Maggie Q keeps gaining popularity in North America with roles in films like Live Free or Die Hard and Balls of Fury. In 2008, she'll appear in Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon and The List, and she's rumored to have landed a role in the upcoming X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Maggie Q’s got style and grace, but she isn’t afraid to get a little dirty. Not only has she had roles in action-packed flicks, but she has also graced the pages of some of the fashion world’s most reputed magazines. An actress and a model with edge… a lethally hot combination.

16. Gisele Bundchen - Currently listed in Guinness World Records as the world's richest supermodel, no one can deny that Gisele Bundchen has won the world over with her endless legs and stunning features. To our dismay, 2007 was the year that Gisele ended her contract with Victoria's Secret. Given her rank on this year's Top 99 list, however, it's clear that her popularity endures, and we know that 2008 will see more of this Brazilian beauty.

15. Natalie Portman - Natalie Portman's 2007 was quite busy... she starred in four flicks, including My Blueberry Nights and Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium, and she still has quite a few big roles to look forward to, like 2008's The Other Boleyn Girl and Brothers. Natalie Portman's star qualities are so obvious that she has every Hollywood producer knocking at her door. She's beautiful, extremely talented, down-to-earth, and a superstar.

14. Beyonce - Beyonce's physical and musical attributes have already translated into a stellar career as an award-winning singer and actress. She had several hit songs in 2007, including "Beautiful Liar," and fans everywhere now wait with bated breath for Beyonce's third solo album, due out in 2008.

13. Keeley Hazell - Keeley Hazell won The Sun’s Page 3 Idol contest in 2004, and has since become one of Britain’s most sought-after glamour models, appearing on numerous magazine covers in the UK and beyond. Two obvious reasons to love Keeley Hazell spring to mind... let’s just say we appreciate her natural gifts. AskMen.com readers appreciate her, too: Keeley was No. 19 on the 2007 Top 99 list, and this year she moves up to position No. 13. Says Keeley,"I am delighted to be included in such illustrious company on such an international website."

12. Megan Fox - This foxy Fox is known for having roles in a few movies and television shows, including Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, the sitcom Hope & Faith, and her starring role in 2007's box-office hit Transformers. Though her resume is short, we have seen enough of Megan Fox to enjoy her budding talent... and her looks. Do you know what secret this actress has about her body? We do. Click through to find out.

11. Maria Menounos - Maria Menounos (journalist by trade, hottie by nature) possesses great looks and the poise of a TV veteran. As a Hollywood correspondent, she often draws more attention than her famous interviewees. We’ve been ga-ga over Maria Menounos since her Entertainment Tonight debut, and we've followed her to Access Hollywood and the Today Show. Maria had this to say about making our 2008 list: "I have such an eclectic life in Hollywood... and am proud of what I have accomplished thus far; that very much includes my ranking on AskMen.com."

10. Adriana Lima - Adriana Lima has become one of the most in-demand runway models in the world. When she's not making men throughout the world drool, she's helping Brazilian orphans in her native land or dabbling in acting. Not only is Adriana Lima considered one of Victoria's Secret's "Perfect 10" models, but she's also a spokesperson for Armani Jeans. We're not sure whether we'd rather see 2005's No. 1 in lingerie or in jeans... tough call, isn't it?

9. Marisa Miller - When a little-known model you worship becomes so popular that she graduates to the world of high fashion, it's like a validation of your tastes. It's proof that you weren't just lusting after skin; you also have an eye for talent. That's what happened with Marisa Miller, and we love her for it. You surely know Marisa from her work in Victoria's Secret catalogs and many Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues. Click through for even more of her stunning photos.

8. Rihanna - Sunny places tend to produce sunny people -- which certainly was the case with Rihanna. Like her native Barbados, she's warm, colorful and full of life, with just the right amount of spice. With a hypnotic voice and a bodacious bod, she released Good Girl Gone Bad in '07, which included the smash hits "Umbrella," "Shut Up and Drive" and "Don't Stop the Music."

7. Jessica Biel - She may have started out playing the sweet and innocent girl-next-door on 7th Heaven, but in 2007, this bombshell showed us her funny side in I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry. Powder Blue and Hole in the Paper Sky are lined up for '08, and a role in Easy Virtue is scheduled for 2009. Offscreen, Jessica Biel has been known to deliver quite the kick in a good soccer match. Are you picturing it too: Jessica in a jersey? Sex appeal, fame and an athletic flair… no wonder she’s No. 7.

6. Scarlett Johansson - Scarlett Johansson mixes undeniable acting talent with wit and knockout looks to create a truly atypical appeal. In 2007, she starred in The Nanny Diaries and appeared in ad campaigns for Louis Vuitton. In 2008, look for her on the big screen in Mary Queen of Scots, The Other Boleyn Girl, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, and He's Just Not That Into You. Scarlett Johansson is one of the most uniquely talented and beautiful women in Hollywood and, given her rank, it's clear you love her as much as we do.

5. Jessica Alba - Who doesn’t love a beautiful woman with a great sense of humor? Jessica Alba showed us her funny side in Good Luck Chuck, and her gorgeous side everywhere else she appeared. In 2007, she also reprised her role as Susan Storm in Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer, and we look forward to seeing her in The Eye, The Love Guru, and 2009's Sin City 2. Our No. 1 of 2006, Jessica Alba, still ranks high, and we can see why.

4. Eva Mendes - We have to bump cigars off the top of our list of "Favorite Cuban Exports" and replace them with the vivacious Eva Mendes. She appeared in four '07 flicks, including We Own the Night and Ghost Rider, and she also posed nude for a PETA campaign. With style, grace and, best of all, tremendous sex appeal, Eva Mendes has become a respected actress, and her stock is on the rise. We'd go toe-to-toe with Castro himself in order to win the hand of this sexy Hollywood heartbreaker.

3. Kate Beckinsale - Kate Beckinsale may be the darling of British theater and American art house films, but she has also saved Pearl Harbor, proved that vampires can be sexy in Underworld, wowed Howard Hughes in The Aviator, and scared audiences in Vacancy. She's from England, so everything that comes out of her luscious mouth is sexy. And she's more than just a pretty face: Kate is Oxford-educated. We know you love this British beauty... that’s why Kate Beckinsale is No. 3.

2. Alessandra Ambrosio - Alessandra Ambrosio is as sexy as her name sounds (if not sexier). One of the most beautiful jewels to hail from exotic Brazil, Alessandra has appeared in dozens of fashion campaigns, notably for GUESS, and she is an angelic fixture at the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Alessandra Ambrosio is also a National Ambassador for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Is Alessandra Ambrosio heaven-sent? Our readers certainly think so, voting her to No. 2 on 2008's Top 99 list.

1. Katherine Heigl - Katherine Heigl has had an outstanding year. Her role on Grey's Anatomy garnered her an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. She also starred in the box-office hit Knocked Up, was interviewed by journalist Barbara Walters as one of her "10 Most Fascinating People of 2007," and married singer Josh Kelley. A former model, Katherine Heigl is beautiful, well-spoken, humorous, talented... the list goes on. No one belongs at the top of 2008's Top 99 more than Katherine Heigl.

Rap superstar 50 cent has banned Ciara from collaborating with Birdman and lil wayne following a dispute with their record label. The In Da Club hitmaker has asked R&B star Ciara not to record with artists at Cash Money Records following a feud between the label and G-Unit - 50 Cent's hip-hop group. The rapper - real name Curtis Jackson - is fuming after G-Unit star Young Buck signed for Cash Money Records. And as revenge, Jackson has stopped a collaboration between Ciara and Cash Money Records founder Bryan 'Birdman' Williams. A source tells the website, "Nobody affiliated with 50 Cent can be affiliated with his enemy."

Maybe lil waynes song to ciara doesn't help - "damn she bad damn she thick, and i may not know perfect, but damn she it, and she thick and she right, damn she nice, you can be my judge baby.. yeah i do life, give me life..and i know that you be dancin til your toes hurt, i can make your toes curl, I can make your soul jerk,we can soul search."

The band have now pulled plans to take their reunion tour to Australia, China, South Africa and Argentina - and will play their final gig in Canada later this month.

Mel C had been locked in talks with bandmates VICTORIA BECKHAM, GERI HALLIWELL, EMMA BUNTON and MEL B over the band’s future.

But Sporty Spice does not want to continue so the girls have decided to call it a day.

Last night a Spice source revealed: “Geri and Victoria have been loving the attention and adulation the tour has been bringing the girls in the UK and North America.

“Mel B has really enjoyed being on stage and performing again. And Emma has found it hard with a young son but was prepared to carried on.

“But Mel C is the one who always insisted the reunion should be only short-term. Now she wants to go back to doing her own thing.

“Because they couldn’t all agree the extra tour dates have been pulled. Touring has been harder on all the girls this time round. But all of them could have been persuaded to continue - apart from Mel C.”

The band yesterday announced their gig in Toronto on February 26 will be their last.

Their statement added: “Sadly the tour needs to come to an end by the end of February due to family and personal commitments for Emma, Geri, Mel B, Mel C and Victoria.

“It was announced in June that, as well as the Europe and North America dates, the girls planned to visit Australia, China, South Africa and Argentina.

"But due to the phenomenal demand for tickets in the UK and US, and the tour’s massive logistics, it was impossible to fit in everything.”

The Return Of The Spice Girls tour kicked off in Vancouver, Canada, on December 2 last year. It was the first time they had appeared as a five-piece since Geri left the band in 1998.

Dates were set for concerts in Cape Town, Buenos Aires, Beijing and Sydney this month.

But the tour schedule changed due to demand for extra London gigs and new dates were never set.

There were also questions about whether the girls could sell out all the cities.

The band said yesterday: “It’s been incredible being back together and seeing our fans again. Really sorry if we didn’t get to see you this time round.

“We have other commitments in our lives now. But who knows what will happen next?”

The band are making the most of their remaining tour time - Mel B celebrated a sell-out gig in Montreal, Canada, by DJ-ing at a local club.

But I think this is the last Spice world tour we will see - although I wouldn’t rule out another money-spinning stint in London or Las Vegas.[source]

The jury returned the verdict on the third day of deliberations. He was accused by the government of trying to beat the IRS out of millions in tax payments.

Snipes and two co-defendants were indicted in 2006 for tax fraud and conspiracy. Snipes faced six additional counts of willful failure to file a tax return from 1999 to 2004, a period in which he signed two contracts for more than 10 million dollars on sequels in the "Blade" trilogy.

The star of the "Blade" films and "White Men Can't Jump" is among the most famous targets of an IRS criminal investigation, and his prosecution was key for the government. The actor used tax protest arguments long rejected by courts but still continuing to find adherents. For example, Snipes said the IRS's own code meant no citizen had to pay taxes on income earned in this country, and the agency had no legal authority to collect wages anyway, because it is not a proper government entity.[source]

E! News' Ryan Seacrest spoke exclusively with Lynne Spears this morning, setting the record straight on her role as a mother and her concern for a daughter in trouble.

Lynne, speaking as a worried mother, told Seacrest her only concern is for her daughter's well being and she just wants Britney to get better. Lynne told Seacrest she is doing everything she can and sees her role as mom to a child who clearly needs help.

She went on to say that she hopes people will question the reports they're hearing from the media and consider the source. She's afraid that everything going on is diverting attention from the real issue- Britney's health.

Lynne also wanted to make it clear that Britney's money has nothing to do with any of this.

this comes after Lufti spoke with Seacrest this morning

Los Angeles, CA – February 1, 2008 – E! NEWS' Ryan Seacrest spoke exclusively with Britney Spears' closest confidante Sam Lutfi, when he called last night after leaving the star's side in the hospital, to set the record straight on his reasons for helping the pop princess, what he's getting out of it and how he truly feels about her family.

Seacrest initially asked Lutfi what was in for him and why was he fighting so hard to take care of her, to which he responded, "I feel like I have a moral obligation (to help Britney)." He went on to say that when you meet her and she cries and she begs (you) not to turn on her, he sees this little girl and wants to help. He said he has three sisters and would do the same thing for them.

However, he was incredibly critical of Spears parents saying he has no more respect for the family and that the parents are incapable of telling the truth and incapable of sympathizing. He went on to explain that her parents are more concerned about money and their own image than they are about this girl in the hospital and he will not spend anymore time trying to earn their respect.

Lutfi did clarify to Seacrest that he does not get paid by her (Britney) and he has never made money on any photo and not accepted money from the media. He said he brought her In-n-Out for dinner in the hospital Thursday night and will be back by her side Friday morning.

Earlier Thursday, a separate insider close to the Spears camp explained exclusively to E! News that "Sam has been the only one around her 24/7, he understands her and she trusts him more than anyone else. He's getting a bad rap, he's what's kept her alive. Sam wants the family to be there for Britney but he feels that they do not understand the full extent of what's going on in her life."

The insider also said that, "Britneys relationship with her mom is touch and go, while her father Jamie's relationship with Britney is on the mend but still at a distance, they both are trying to work things out."

The 65-year-old, wearing aviator-style glasses and helmet hair, looked almost identical to the singer who died suddenly from a heart attack in 1988.

"He was and always will be one of the greats of rock 'n roll." McCartney said of the Texan whose hits include 'You Got It' and 'Crying'.

Paul has remained friends with Orbison's widow Barbara and she was among the special guests at his concert at the Amoeba Record store in Los Angeles, California last year.

Earlier this week McCartney dismmed reports that he had a heart procedure last year as "entirely untrue."

"People are ringing and texting me saying, 'Are you OK?"' he writes in a posting on his newly redesigned Web site.

Former "Baywatch" star and Playboy model Pamela Anderson takes to the stage in one of France's most famous nude revues this month, when she performs for two nights at the Crazy Horse in Paris.

Anderson, who has recently been performing in a magic show in Las Vegas, follows Arielle Dombasle, an actress and wife of one of France's leading intellectuals, in appearing at the Crazy Horse, a fixture in Paris night life for half a century.

"A special number will be created for Pamela Anderson, a striptease on a Harley Davidson," the Crazy Horse said.

Anderson will perform four shows on February 13-14.[source]

" Kate Moss is planning to marry her rocker lover at London's Claridge's hotel.

The catwalk beauty - who started dating The Kills guitarist Jamie Hince last August - was seen picking up wedding brochures at the plush venue sparking rumours she plans to hold her nuptials there followed by a lavish reception in one of the many decadent ballrooms.

A source said: "Kate looked radiant when she came by to pick up the wedding brochures. She has the air of a woman who is loved and looked after."

Kate regularly visited Claridge's when she was dating Babyshambles frontman Pete Doherty.

However, since their split last July, she has favoured London's Dorchester hotel, where she held her 34th birthday party earlier this month.

The source added: "It was generally assumed Claridge's was a bolthole for her and Pete and she wouldn't be back again, so you can image the buzz when she showed up."

Kate reportedly proposed to Jamie during a 12-hour lovemaking marathon just a month after they started dating.

When the couple emerged from their night of passion, Kate allegedly told friends, "We're engaged." "
