by Alice on Nov.23, 2009, under Artist, Band, Music, Singer

The music event’s organiser Michael Eavis has signed up the Irish rockers – Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. – to perform for the first time at the world famous festival which celebrates its 40th anniversary next year.
A source said: “Everyone is over the moon that the deal has been done. Michael really wanted a huge name for the 40th anniversary and the fact U2 have never played Glastonbury in their 32-year career only adds to the mystique.”
The ‘Get On Your Boots’ hitmakers – who will headline the festival on Friday June 25, in Somerset, England – have been in discussions with Michael, 74, for some time.
The source added to Britain’s The Sun newspaper: “Eavis has been asking them for a while now and really stepped up the effort this year. This could be an iconic moment.”
Glastonbury tickets sold out just hours after their release last month, even though no acts had been named.
At the time, Michael promised the festival would be full of the world’s best musicians.
He said: “There will be three or four superstars. The expectations are really high and we’re trying to get the best headliners in the world.”
‘Can’t Take My Eyes Off You’ singer Andy Williams recently revealed he had also been booked to perform at the world-famous event.
Veteran rockers The Rolling Stones are favourites to headline the final night of the three-day event, while Radiohead and Beyonce Knowles have also been tipped to appear.

Tom Cruise’s New Movie ‘Knight and Day’ Was Halted By Rampaging Bulls
by Alice on Nov.23, 2009, under Actor, Actress

Seven animals ran through the streets of Cadiz, Southern Spain, where the Hollywood actor’s latest project ‘Knight and Day’ – which also stars Cameron Diaz – was being shot on Sunday (22.11.09).
Two women were injured during the incident, which ended when the bulls were captured on a beach, and all work on the movie has been suspended by the major’s office.
A spokesperson for the major’s office said: “Nothing will be filmed in Cadiz until we have a new plan that guarantees the safety of local residents.”
Rehearsals for scenes which re-enact the famous running of the bulls, which takes place annually in Pamplona, Northern Spain, had been taking place last week.
Neither Tom or Cameron were present on Sunday but both are scheduled to fly into the country this weekend.

Hugh Hefner Choked On A Sex Toy While Having Sex
by Alice on Nov.23, 2009, under Entertainment

The 83-year-old Playboy publisher – who is currently dating Crystal Harris and twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon – choked on a sex toy while in bed with a group of his girlfriends.
He revealed: “What is the closest I’ve come to death? There was a moment when I was having sex with four Playmates and I almost swallowed a Ben Wa ball.”
The media mogul also revealed he prefers to spend most of his time in bed, doing as many activities as possible there.
He added: “My most treasured possession is my rotating round bed.
“I don’t have dinner parties – I eat my dinner in bed. I relax with my girls in bed, just watching a movie and having a good time.
“If I had to dress up in fancy dress, I’d wear my pyjamas.”
However, Hugh admits the aging process is starting to affect his sleep patterns.
He said: “I need to go to the toilet several times a night – that comes with age.”

Sam Worthington Enjoyed Doing Daring Stunts Than Kissing Scenes
by Alice on Nov.23, 2009, under Actor

The Australian actor says he enjoyed undertaking daring stunts and physical challenges when making ‘Avatar’ and found his subsequent movie commitments less fulfilling.
He said: “To be honest I craved a gun and a sword while I was doing ‘Last Night’ opposite Keira Knightley. I didn’t get the same kind of rush from the kissing scenes.”
Despite the physical nature of his role as a paraplegic ex-marine in ‘Avatar’, Sam insists he didn’t do any training or preparation before filming began because he finds exercise “pointless.”
He said: “I did nothing. I am not one of these yoga ‘I only want wheatgrass and blueberry muffins’ guys, and I don’t go to the gym, I think it’s pointless. If I pick up something heavy it’s because I’m going to move it.”
Despite his lack of fitness preparation, Sam was happy to get involved with the physical challenges on the movie – even when director James Cameron insisted on hurling objects at him.
He explained: “I’m scared of nothing. Every scene is tough but it’s fun and liberating.
“Jim’s very clever at giving you something tactile to react to, so in one scene when a tree explodes, he had a group of people throwing foam and debris at me.
“Jim would hit me with a big rubber stick as I ran by and I would go flying across the room from the shock waves. When you watch it back you see the explosion and then my blue alien flies across the screen – it looks amazing, like I’ve been blown apart.
“Jim hired me because he said I am brave enough to take on any challenge. And I love it, it’s fun.”

Shakira Thinks The World Is Driven By “libido”
by Alice on Nov.23, 2009, under Artist, Music, Singer

The ‘She-Wolf’ singer insists that sexual desire has more of an impact on the world than religion and believes people need to give in to their natural urges for the good of humanity.
She said: “I do think libido is the engine of the world. Forward or backwards. For good or ill. Sometimes when we repress our libido we regress. When we were in the Dark Ages, it was a question of humanity somehow managing to forget about itself. We put God in the centre of society, and people forgot about their own nature and desires. There was a huge deal of repression.”
The 32-year-old singer says that as she gets older, she is becoming increasingly comfortable with herself and her desires.
She explained: “Every day now I discover something new. Go through phases in which I feel much more in touch with my feminine side, in ways I never thought possible. I’m letting the woman inside of me speak, the desires of this woman, speak as loud as they can.”
Shakira also believes society is changing to be more accepting but admits even she was surprised when she got positive feedback from an elderly nun over the raunchy video for her single ‘She-Wolf’.
She added to Britain’s Observer newspaper: “Not too long ago my mum ran into one nun at home, who’d known me, and the nun told her, ‘Oh my God, I watched the ‘She-Wolf’ video, and Shakira looks phenomenal in it! I love how she looks, how she does the splits, and how flexible her legs are.’ This was an 80-year-old nun. Times are changing.”

Zac Efron Wants To Act As A villain In A James Bond Movie
by Alice on Nov.23, 2009, under Actor

The ‘Me and Orson Welles’ actor – who is best known for his role as clean-cut student Troy Bolton in the ‘High School Musical’ franchise – loves the series of films about the iconic British spy and wants a role in the next addition in the franchise, which currently stars Daniel Craig as the lead character.
He said: “I’m a huge James Bond fan. I’d love to be a Bond baddie. I’ve seen pretty much every Bond film. Sean Connery is my favourite and I really like ‘Goldeneye’ with Pierce Brosnan.”
As well as playing a villain, 22-year-old Zac also wants to be seduced by an older woman on the big screen, revealing his ideal part would be to star in a remake of ‘The Graduate’.
Asked about his dream movie roles, he told Absolute Radio host Christian O’Connell: “I’m still waiting for that script and that director. I like a lot of movies from the 70s. A movie I just saw again and one of my favourites is ‘The Graduate’.”

Nelly Furtado Said She Won’t Try To Make Herself Appear Younger
by Alice on Nov.23, 2009, under Artist, Music, Singer

The 30-year-old ‘Maneater’ singer insists she won’t try to make herself appear younger in order to boost her career and would rather enjoy tea and biscuits than undertake a gruelling exercise regime.
She said: “I am not ready to adjust physically, just to be marketable. My sell-by date will run out eventually.
“Unlike Madonna, I wouldn’t be willing to do Pilates round the clock, just to slow down the deterioration of my body. I prefer to sit in the kitchen, drink tea and eat biscuits.”
Nelly – who is married to sound engineer Demacio Castellon and has a six-year-old daughter, Nevis, from a previous relationship – took a two-year break after she finished promoting her 2006 album ‘Loose’ and says she was enjoyed having the time to lead a more normal life.
She explained to Germany’s Petra magazine: “After the tour I was terribly exhausted and had to find a way back to a healthy routine. I cooked chicken soup for my family and just enjoyed everyday life. The small things that make you happy are important to me.”

Will Ferrell Is The Most Overpaid Stars As Per Forbes Magazine
by Alice on Nov.22, 2009, under Actor, Actress

The ‘Elf’ actor and comedian topped the annual list by Forbes magazine, which calculated how much moviemakers earn per dollar paid to their lead actor.
After the last couple of funnyman Will’s films – ‘Semi-Pro’ and ‘Land of the Lost’ – bombed at the box office, his rate of return has dropped to $3.29 for every dollar of Will’s fee.
This contrasts greatly with the other end of the scale, which saw Shia LaBeouf named as the Best Actor for the Buck in August, earning studios an average of $160 for every dollar he was paid.
Behind Will on the Most Overpaid list was British actor Ewan McGregor, while Tom Cruise, Leonardo DiCaprio and Samuel L. Jackson all made the top ten.
However, Will could turn his box office figures around as he recently revealed he wants to make a sequel to ‘Anchorman’, one of his most successful films to date, about a 1970s newsreader.
The 42-year-old star said: “Yeah we’re trying to figure out when and how we should do that. We’re going to meet with all the guys and see if we can actually pull this off.
“With Steve Carrell and Paul Rudd, they’re in different places with their careers it’s a lot harder to get us all together.”
Although he did add: “And believe me, I’m not taking a pay cut, no way, absolutely not!”

Forbes magazine’s top ten Most Overpaid Stars:
1. Will Ferrell
2. Ewan McGregor
3. Billy Bob Thornton
4. Eddie Murphy
5. Ice Cube
6. Tom Cruise
7. Drew Barrymore
8. Leonardo DiCaprio
9. Samuel L. Jackson

Madonna And David Beckham’s Sons Are Forecast To Become The Richest Celebrities In Uk
by Alice on Nov.22, 2009, under Children, Son


Youngsters Rocco Ritchie, nine, and Cruz Beckham, four, are tipped to have the most earning power in a new report which assessed the estimated worth of today’s celebrity children in 20 years time.
Rocco, son of the ‘Celebration’ singer and film director Guy Ritchie, topped the four categories in the report – star quality, likely inheritance, talent and love of the camera – getting ratings of ten out of ten for each.
The report also estimated Rocco to be worth £376 million before he reaches 30.
Celebrity expert Mark Frith said: “Rocco will earn a fortune from his mother and a fair bit from dad. But it’s the other three rankings that power him to the number one place.”
Cruz – whose mother is former Spice Girl turned fashion designer Victoria Beckham – beat siblings Romeo, seven, and Brooklyn, ten, to second place in the list.
Both Rocco and Cruz scored highly because they have been spotted dancing at their mother’s concerts.
None of Rocco’s other siblings – sister Lourdes and adopted brother and sister David and Mercy – featured on the list.
British royals, Princes William and Harry, came ninth and tenth on the list – compiled by Cartoon Network – with estimated fortunes of just under £200 million each, but were both embarrassingly awarded zero out of ten for showbiz talent.
Cartoon Network’s Power Pups of the Future, top ten future celebs:
1. Rocco Ritchie £376 million
2. Cruz Beckham £341 million

A Female Fan Of British Boy Band JLS Hid Herself In The Star’s Luggage To Meet The Boys
by Alice on Nov.22, 2009, under Artist, Band, Music, Singer
The girl hid herself in a holdall matching that of the group’s luggage at a hotel they were staying at in Dublin, Ireland, in the hope of being smuggled to the airport with the four boys.
However, the ‘Beat Again’ singers’ entourage noticed the bag containing the girl was “moving” and rescued her before she was packed into the back of the tour bus.
A source close to the group told Britain’s The Sun newspaper: “It’s getting to the point where the fanaticism is dangerous.
“This girl was so meticulous. She had brought along her own bag to match the luggage the guys normally use. But it was moving slightly and didn’t have any tags so one of the security lads saw it.
“When the girl was pulled out she had been in there for at least half an hour and was close to fainting.”
Unfortunately for the fan, the group – Marvin Humes, Aston Merrygold, Jonathan “JB” Gill And Oritse Williams – had already left the hotel in separate cars, leaving the girl, who was wearing a T-shirt of the band, disappointed.
The source added: “She was looking for the boys but they had already left.
“She was distraught but managed to slip away, pretending she needed the toilet.”
Last weekend, JLS had to cut short a performance in Birmingham, England, after 20,000 fans turned up to see them and a host of other acts switch on the city’s Christmas lights and perform for free.
Around 60 people were injured as fans rushed to try and get into the show bustling past security.

Mika Admits “I emotionally killed a man”
by Alice on Nov.21, 2009, under Artist, Music, Singer

The ‘We Are Golden’ singer – who refuses to reveal his sexuality – says he feels like a “murderer” following the encounter with a mystery man.
He said: “I emotionally killed a man. It was three weeks ago. It’s complicated. Suffice to say that I am now a murderer.”
The ‘Grace Kelly’ hitmaker also revealed his 2007 hit ‘Love Today’ was written after an enjoyable sexual encounter.
He said: “It came to me, fully formed, after the first time I had sleepy with someone and actually loved it.”
The singer’s latest single, ‘Rain’, was written in the aftermath of a row with his then-partner and he claims the creative process was “empowering”.
He explained to Britain’s The Times newspaper: “I was furious with the person I was going out with. What had they done? Nothing. That was the problem.
“I wrote this nasty little nursery rhyme, and then I thought, wouldn’t it be funny to put it to a dance beat, because that would empower it.”

The actress-turned-fashion designer – who has three children
Rafferty, 13, Iris, nine, and Rudy, seven, with the 36-year-old Hollywood actor – will lift the lid on their stormy marriage which ended after six years in October 2003.
The 44-year-old brunette’s “amazing story” is also expected to reveal details about best friend Kate Moss and her first husband, Spandau Ballet singer Gary Kemp, who is the father of her 19-year-old son Finlay.
Publisher John Blake has revealed that Sadie has sold her memoirs for a “five-figure sum”.
He said: “You couldn’t wish for more in an autobiography.
“We haven’t discussed the finer detail, but we would expect it to contain pretty much everything.
“Sadie has a very good sense of humour and is very self-deprecating.”
Shortly after Sadie and Jude separated, the ‘Alfie’ actor started dating Sienna Miller – who was reportedly a rival of Sadie’s supermodel friend Kate at the time.
Sadie – who runs fashion label Frost French with her friend Jemima French – is also expected to talk about her bohemian childhood as the daughter of psychedelic artist David Vaughn.

The ‘X-Men’ actress – who has previously spoken about the abuse she and her mother suffered at the hands of their partners – is relieved the ‘Umbrella’ hitmaker ended her relationship with Chris Brown after he assaulted her in February.
She said: “Any time a woman frees herself from that kind of bondage and that kind of situation I’m proud.”
Meanwhile, Halle has denied she and long-term boyfriend Gabriel Aubry – with whom she has 19-month-old daughter Nahla – are planning to have another child, insisting she is too busy with working on her new perfume range.
When asked if she was contemplating having another baby, she told US TV show ‘Access Hollywood’: “Not my real baby, but my career baby and it’s called Pure Orchid. I have to say it’s pretty.”
Halle recently admitted she used to be attracted to abusive men because she regularly saw her father attacking her mother when she was growing up.
She said: “My mother was a battered woman and that was my childhood for a good chunk of it.
“Early on in my life, I made choices, and I chose men that were abusive because that was what I knew growing up.”
However, she underwent therapy and learned what to do if and when a relationship became violent.

Sting Sees ‘Spirits in the Material World’
by Alice on Nov.21, 2009, under Artist, Music, Singer

The Police frontman claims to have seen the apparition of a woman, witnessed flying objects and heard strange voices at a home he once lived in with wife Trudie Styler.
One night, the terrified 58-year-old singer – who sang ‘Spirits in the Material World’ in the 80s – awoke to see a ghostly mother holding a baby in the corner of the room.
He said: “I would never have said I believe in ghosts, until I saw one – I’ve seen a ghost with my own eyes.
“I was in bed one night, in a very old house I used to live in, and I woke up at three in the morning, bolt upright, looked into the corner of the room and thought I saw Trudie standing there with a child – our child – in her arms, staring at me.
“And I thought, ‘Well, that’s strange – why is she standing in a corner, staring at me?
“And I then reached next to me and there was Trudie, and I suddenly got this terrible chill. And she woke up and said, ‘Gosh, who is that?’ And she saw this woman and a child in the corner of the room.”
That was not the only supernatural encounter Sting had in the house, and he admits he was plagued by otherworldly beings.
He added in an interview on UK station Radio 2: “A lot of things happened in that house, a lot of flying objects and voices and strange, strange things happened.
“When you live in old houses you get this energy there. Intellectually, no I don’t believe in them, but I’ve experienced them on an emotional level.”

Gerard Butler Voted The Best British Actor In Hollywood
by Alice on Nov.21, 2009, under Actor

The Scottish hunk – who is best known for playing King Leonidas in ‘300’ – beat a host of stars, including Christian Bale and double-Oscar winner Daniel Day Lewis to win the title in a poll of more than 1,000 UK film fans by the DVD rental service LoveFilm.
‘Revolutionary Road’ actress Kate Winslet – who managed to land forth place – was one of only two women to feature in the top ten.
‘Twilight’ actor Robert Pattinson came seventh despite the huge popularity of the vampire franchise.
Helen Cowley, the editor at LoveFilm, believes the poll shows 40-year-old Gerard had got “some real bite in Hollywood”.
She said: “And even though Robert Pattinson is getting some deserved attention, it’s the older generation of actors that still have sway in Hollywood.”
Gerard has previously spoken about how he walked away from his career as a solicitor when he was just weeks away from qualifying to pursue his acting dream.
He said: “You have to understand that I was completely out of control. If I hadn’t been so lost and insane, I’d still be a lawyer.”

The ‘Godfather’ star is citing “irreconcilable differences” for the split from spouse Linda Stokes after filing the papers in Los Angeles’ County Superior Court.
He said in a statement: “We have two beautiful kids together and will remain great friends. Everything will be fine.”

Lily Allen: File Sharing Is Not OK For British Music
by Alice on Nov.20, 2009, under Artist, Music, Singer

The ‘Not Fair’ singer – who launched a scathing attack on illegal file-sharing on her MySpace blog and attacked indie group Radiohead for giving their latest album away on a pay-what-you-want basis – claims she doesn’t care if people copy her albums and sell them on for a profit.
Lily, 24, told UK radio station Key 103 Radio: “If someone comes up with a burnt copy of my CD and offers it to you for £4, I haven’t a problem with that as long as the person buying it places some kind do of value on my music.”
In Lily’s original blog post she said downloading was starving up-and-coming artists of money they need to keep producing music, and attacked the Featured Artists Coalition (FAC) – whose members include Travis singer Fran Healy, Blur drummer Dave Rowntree and Radiohead guitarist Ed O’Brien.
She wrote: “I’m going to be writing to British artists, saying just this: File sharing’s not OK for British music. We need to find new ways to help consumers access and buy music legally, but saying file sharing’s fine is not helping anyone – and definitely not helping British music.”
The FAC recently called for the British government to abandon proposals to cut off the internet connections of people who illegally download music.

The actress admits six-year-old Ryder – her son with ex-husband, Black Crowes rocker Chris Robinson – took a liking to Penelope when she and Kate were filming new movie ‘Nine’ together.
Talking about the shoot, Kate said: “Ryder would say to me, ‘I saw Penelope in the lobby today.’
“You could see that he recognised what a beautiful woman she is. He’s so cute!”
Kate recently revealed how confident Ryder is and knows exactly what he wants.
The 30-year-old star – whose mother is Hollywood actress Goldie Hawn – said: “My mother has said, ‘He’ll be a director of something because everything is specific.’ You know, we went to this birthday party where everybody was getting their faces painted and the kids were going, ‘I want to be Spider-Man or Batman.’ But Ryder was like, ‘I want a red face and I want white around the eyes, I want a white mouth, I want spikes and yellow dots on each one.’
“But the face painter didn’t do it exactly like that, and in the car later, Ryder was on the phone with his dad Chris and I said, ‘Tell daddy about your face.’ And he goes, ‘She did it totally wrong.’ I was like, ‘What do you mean?’ He said, ‘They’re not mountain peaks, they’re hills. They’re not peaks, they’re not sharp.’ I told him, ‘Honey, but they look great.’ Then he replied, ‘No, mom. They’re hills.’ Oh yeah, he knows what he wants!”

The former ‘Dawson’s Creek’ star split from actress Heather McComb earlier this year and has now started legal proceedings to officially end their six-year marriage.
The papers were filed at a Los Angeles court and James cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their break-up.
The pair tied the knot in Malibu in 2003, six months after the sixth and final season of ‘Dawson’s Creek’ aired.
James’ co-stars Michelle Williams and Busy Phillips attended the intimate ceremony.
Friends suspected a divorce was brewing when the couple sold their $2.5 million home in Studio City, California, in March.
They put the mansion – which features 180-degree canyon, mountain and city views, and a luxurious mist cooling system – on the market.
Since they tied the knot, James – who played Dawson Leery in the US teen drama – has guest starred in ‘How I Met Your Mother’, ‘One Tree Hill’, ‘Ugly Betty’ and ‘Medium’.
Heather has appeared in ‘Prison Break’, ‘Crossing Jordan’ and ‘CSI: New York’.

Hugh Grant Feels Confident To Be A Dad
by Alice on Nov.20, 2009, under Actor

The Hollywood bachelor – whose relationships with actress Elizabeth Hurley and socialite Jemima Khan broke down because he didn’t want to settle down – now he feels is qualified to be a dad after getting plenty of practice helping with his nephews, nieces and godchildren.
But the 49-year-old actor admits he would employ a team of nannies to help raise his offspring.
Hugh – who is currently single – said: “Ten years ago, I wouldn’t have thought about having children at all. But now I have so many nephews and nieces and cousins and godchildren, I like the thought.
“But that’s on the basis that I can leave after ten minutes. I don’t know what it would be like 24 hours a day. I think I’d have a lot of nannies.”
Asked if he still believes he will raise a family of his own, he added to Parade magazine: “Yes, yes, yes. I have not given up hope!
“I find I’m not as bad with children as I used to be.”
The ‘Music and Lyrics’ star even has theories on how to raise the perfect child – by not smothering them with love.
He explained: “If you have a smothering parent, the effect it can apparently have on a child is to give them, in equal doses, a sense of too much self-esteem, because they are mummy’s little princess or prince, and low self-esteem. It affects future relationships.”

The ‘Hannah Montana’ star is rumoured to be dating her ‘The Last Song’ co-star – who she describes as her “best friend” – and although she won’t confirm the romance speculation, she says she is amazed by how much they understand one another.
She said: “I’ve never gotten along with someone so well. I was a little anxious about making this movie; I wanted everything to be perfect. To go on set and feel insecure was a totally new element for me. But he felt the same way. He admitted his insecurities, and it was really nice to have someone who understands me for once.”
The 16-year-old singer-and-actress also admitted one of the reasons why she deleted her Twitter account was to protect her relationship with the Australian actor.
She explained to Seventeen magazine: “It sucks when your personal life becomes public. So I’m finding ways to make my personal and private life more of my life – which is one of the reasons why I deleted my Twitter. We’ve decided that any type of relationship that we have, we will always just keep it very D.L (down low). First and foremost, we are best friends, so that’s what I tell people all the time.”
While she won’t comment on any romance, Miley is thankful for Liam’s support and admits he makes her feel special.
She added: “Liam has been a big part of that. All you want is for one person to say, ‘You did a really good job today.’ Or, ‘You look really beautiful,’ or, ‘I was really moved by that.’ You just want one person to make you feel good about something you’re doing.”

Zac Efron’s Obsessed Fans Went To See The Star On The Isle Of Man
by Alice on Nov.20, 2009, under Actor

The ‘High School Musical’ actor was shooting new movie ‘Me and Orson Wells’ on the Isle of Man – a small island located in the Irish Sea between Britain and Ireland – and was stunned to discover his legion of female fans had even managed to hunt him down there.
He said: “I was looking forward to that seclusion. From what I heard it was a pretty quiet place and there weren’t a lot of people there. But they found it. But I felt pretty welcome.”
The movie is something of a departure for Zac – who is famous for playing clean-cut jock Troy Bolton in the hit ‘High School Musical’ films – admits he was looking for something a bit “riskier” when he accepted the part.
Zac – who plays a teenage student who, by luck, gets to work with a young Orson Welles, the acclaimed American writer and director, in the coming-of-age drama – said: “I was looking for that opportunity, something fresh.”
Zac wasn’t concerned his large, mostly teen fan base, wouldn’t have heard of Orson Welles.
He said: “Perhaps the fans that don’t know about Orson maybe have more of an opinion now when they study this stuff at school… some insight into the early life of this American icon.”

The ‘Umbrella’ singer – who has been single since Chris Brown assaulted her in February – is ready to date again but isn’t interested in suitors who don’t measure up in the bedroom.
When asked what a guy needed to impress her, she quipped to German magazine Bravo: “He has to be good in bed and the size matters. You know what I mean? The inner beauty counts as well, but without a toy it doesn’t make it fun. Right now I don’t want to have a serious relationship, I want to have fun.”
Although she is on the look-out for a guy, Rihanna is careful about who she gives her number to.
She said: “I love flirting at the moment. I’m single and I’m enjoying my freedom. But I don´t give my phone number out that often. But if I’m dating, I check the boy from the top to the bottom.”
One guy Rihanna has her eye is ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ actor Jesse Williams – who plays her love interest in the video for ‘Russian Roulette’.
The 21-year-old star revealed: “Jesse, who’s in my music video for ‘Russian Roulette’, is soooo hot!”

Rachel McAdams Had To Rely On Yoga Exercises To Fit Into Her ‘Sherlock Holmes’ Outfit

The actress had to wear a lot of tight-fitting corsets for her role as Irene Adler in Guy Ritchie’s new movie about the British fictional detective and admits it was a struggle to get them on.
She said: “I wasn’t allowed to take that corset off! I had to rely on yoga exercises! Don’t get me wrong, I’m such a girly girl, I was in heaven being dressed in these incredible costumes. But it was like something out of ’Gone With The Wind’. I’m holding onto the trailer door trying to eek out just a little bit of space so that I can speak properly. Each morning, they tried to make me laugh and on the laugh they’d yank – that’s how they managed to squeeze me in every day.”
Rachel also joked she was so desperate to be in the film, she had to beg Guy for her part.
She quipped to Total Film magazine: “I hunted Guy down and camped on his doorstep until he relented! OK, no, we had a chat in a garden and it went from there… Fortunately, it worked out for me.”
