aty Perry and Robert Pattinson spent the night flirting with each other at a mutual friend’s birthday party.

The ‘I Kissed A Girl’ singer – who is dating comedian Russell Brand – and the ‘Twilight’ hunk were at Dimples Supper Club in Burbank, California, and onlookers say they “only had eyes for each other”.

Website Radar Online says the pair: “Sat face-to-face, touching foreheads and acting very flirty with each other. They were both giggling and Katy looked positively giddy!”

It is not the first time Katy and Robert – who has an on/off romance with his ‘Twilight’ co-star Kristen Stewart – have been to the karaoke venue together.

A staff member said: “They came here last year and every time she comes he seems to follow.”

Although she seemed quite smitten with Robert, Katy did manage to find time to take to the microphone.

She belted out a Christmas track on the karaoke machine and when she and her friends took to the stage for the last song of the night, they weren’t impressed with the DJ’s choice of Pink’s ‘So What’.

She started shouting: “Wrong song! No! We don’t like Pink.”

However, her pleas were ignored and she eventually gave up and she and her friends sang along.

At the end of the evening, Katy, Robert and a friend all left for home in the singer’s Audi.

Jimmy Page is going to tour again in 2010 – with or without his Led Zeppelin bandmates.

The legendary guitarist has a host of new songs written and plans to release and tour them in the New year.

Jimmy – who played a one-off concert with Led Zeppelin at London’s O2 Arena in December 2007 – said: “We’re running up to Christmas now and next year I have every intention of playing music live and manifesting it. I’ve got the music waiting, and that’s what I’ll be doing. It’s been two years since The 02 show, so it’s time to do that.”

Jimmy, 65, insists he has never fallen out of love with the guitar and says his relationship with his instrument is like a happy marriage.

The musician – who has been married three times and is currently wed to Jimena Gomez-Paratcha, mother to three of his five children –added to Sky News: “There’s this bonding with this instrument. It’s as simple as that, they sort of speak with their own character. You can have this marvellous affair with a guitar, almost like a marriage. But at the end of the day it doesn’t ask you for alimony.”

Jimmy’s Led Zeppelin bandmates Robert Plant and John Paul Jones are both busy with their own projects.

Robert is recording another album with Alison Krauss, while John has just released an LP with his super-group Them Crooked Vultures, which also includes Foo Fighters rocker Dave Grohl and Queens of the Stone Age singer Josh Homme.

Miley Cyrus has named her dog after her favourite Australian slang term.

The ‘Hannah Montana’ star has fallen in love with the country’s colloquialisms and common phrases since she started dating Aussie actor Liam Hemsworth and has used a well known word for her pet pooch’s moniker.

She said: “I just bought a little German Shepherd and I named it ‘Mate’ because I always say ‘mate’ now to Liam. So that’s my little German Shepherd dog’s name.”

Miley, 17, started learning Australian slang after ‘Triangle’ star Liam, 19, bought her a book of phrases from his home country.

She added to take40.com: “Liam actually went to Australia and then came back. The first night he came back – I had gotten really sick – he brought me back a book to make me laugh, of all the lingo. He was like, ‘I’ve never heard half of this stuff but some of it’s pretty funny!’

“It’s really funny how different yet alike America and Australia are. I think we expect, because it’s so far away, to be so different. I can’t wait to go sometime, I’d love to perform there.”

The Pussycat Dolls are getting new members.

The girl band have been surrounded by rumours they are splitting, but choreographer Robin Antin – who founded the group in its first incarnation as a dance troupe in 1995 – insists they are continuing but with fresh faces joining lead singer Nicole Scherzinger.

She told MTV: “Nicole is going back in the studio. We’re working on new music right now. There will be a few new faces in the Pussycat Dolls. I’ve been really putting that out there. I’m really excited about it. Inside every girl, inside every woman, is a Pussycat Doll and I always want to bring in new faces to really show that.

“The Pussycat Dolls are not breaking up. I’m the creator of the Pussycat Dolls and I own the brand. I would be the one to say, ‘OK, it’s over.’ But it’s so not.”

Robin wouldn’t reveal who of the current line-up – Nicole, Ashley Roberts, Kimberly Wyatt, Jessica Sutta and Melody Thornton – might be leaving but insists a change of faces will invigorate the group.

She added: “It’s Nicole and a couple new faces. Some of the girls want to go and do their own thing. We’re moving on. We’re excited. We’re looking at new girls. It’s phase three of the Pussycat Dolls because we did our first album, our second album and now we’re going on to our third. We’re touring … a lot is coming up.”

Zooey Deschanel can cheer herself up just thinking about Christmas.

The ‘(500) Days of Summer’ actress – who admits she generally has a pretty positive outlook on life – claims that if she feels unhappy all she has to do is reminisce about her favourite festive memories with her sister Emily to cheer herself up.

She said: “I think Christmas is always used at any point in the year to cheer us up, like each other up. We would use that to cheer each other up if we were in a sad mood or something, we’d just start talking about Christmas.

“So we have always loved Christmas. I don’t think there’s any particular Christmas that comes to mind.”

The 29-year-old actress has another reason to be happy as she married her rocker boyfriend Ben Gibbard in September at a private ceremony near Seattle, Washington.

The couple got engaged in December 2008 after dating for nearly a year, with a friend saying at the time: “Zooey was swept off her feet, and Ben is so excited.”
