Justin Bieber is hoping for a motorbike for Christmas

The ‘Baby’ singer – who was given a car by his mentor Usher for his 16th birthday in March – would love to unwrap another vehicle from either the ‘OMG’ hitmaker or his mother.

He said: “I got a car for my birthday, Usher helped buy it. Maybe he will get me another car for Christmas.

“My mom is trying to figure out something to get me. I want a motorcycle. Not a big one, a little pocket one, a small miniature one which is really cool. I do like fast cars.”

When asked what he was planning on buying his family, Justin said he wasn’t sure what he’d get them, but insisted they won’t be disappointed.

He said: “I spoil my family, really.”

Fans of Justin may not be able to spend Christmas with him in person, but will be able to console themselves with a range of Justin Bieber dolls which are being released.

The toy line includes the ‘Justin Bieber Music Video Collection Singing Figures’ which play 30-second clips from his hits, ‘Baby’ and ‘One Less Lonely Girl’ and are styled in the same way he is in the music videos for those songs.

There is also ‘The JB Style Collection’, which features Justin dolls in either his ‘Street Style, ‘Awards Style’ and ‘Red Carpet Style’. The dolls will be available in US stores priced between $17 and $30.

Eva Longoria Parker thrives on stress

The ‘Desperate Housewives’ actress – who is married to basketball star Tony Parker – loves nothing more than to invite all her friends and family to her house to mark occasions such as Christmas and Thanksgiving.

She said: “The hustle and bustle of the holidays is my break. I actually enjoy running around doing all of the shopping, preparing the food and all of that stuff. People get so stressed around the holidays, and I’m the exact opposite. My husband does a really good job of figuring out flights for everyone.”

Though the 35-year-old beauty – who has her own chain of restaurants, Beso – loves to cook, she enjoys inviting her family to share in the catering duties.

She told Latina magazine: “I fry the turkey because I love the way it tastes and it’s easy. He’s Tony adapted to the Mexican culture rather easily because it’s all around him. Every year we have a tamaleria which involves all of the cousins, aunts, my mom and my sisters doing an assembly line to make tamales.”

Eva is often left alone in her house because of Tony’s career, but she always tries to make sure she still has people around her.

She explained: “With Tony travelling, it’s great to have friends around. I love a house filled with people and the energy that comes. I relish when people come into town and visit and share new experiences.”

The former Spice Girl splashed out £2,000 on the pet pooch for the soccer star and gave it to him during the family’s festive celebrations at their UK home Beckingham Palace, in Hertfordshire.

The as yet unnamed mutt will soon be flown out to Los Angeles to live with the couple and their three sons – Brooklyn, ten, Romeo, seven, and four-year-old Cruz.

Victoria, 35, chose that particular breed because it is synonymous with the fighting spirit of the England soccer team and the country.

A family friend told The Sun newspaper: “David absolutely loves the bulldog. Victoria said she chose the breed because it is a symbol of David’s spirit on the soccer field. He will be flown out to Los Angeles so the boys can look after it when their dad is away.”

The dog is the third canine addition to the Beckham household. David, 34, already has two Rottweilers named Snoopy and Puff after rap superstars Snoop Dog and P. Diddy, formerly known as Puff Daddy.

David and Victoria spent Christmas Day (25.12.09) with their children, British TV chef Gordon Ramsay, his wife Tana and their four children, David’s parents Sandra and Ted, his sister Joanne and Victoria’s parents Tony and Jackie.

The Bulldog is one of the UK’s four national animals and during World War II British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was commonly referred to as the ‘British Bulldog’ and characterised as the animal to represent his unbreakable spirit.

The Boyzone singer admits the group’s traditional festive get-together on Boxing Day (26.12.09) will be strange without the late star, who died of natural causes aged 33 in October.

Ronan said: “It’s going to be hard, because we always saw each other at some point over the Christmas holidays. It’s going to be tough not having him around.

“The only way to get through this is to look after each other. We’re always on the phone to each other, we go for dinner and make sure we keep our minds occupied.”

Despite the tragedy, the singer is trying to learn from it and appreciating everything he has.

He added: “Stephen’s death has put everything into perspective and taught me that life is short and fragile. You have to smile every day, laugh every day and tell your loved ones that you love them every day because you never know what’s round the corner.”

Stephen died of natural causes after a night out with his husband Andrew Cowles in Majorca.

The ‘Sex and the City’ actress goes home to South Carolina to spend the holiday with her parents and the thing she looks forward to the most is her mother Dorothy’s cooking.

She said: “Christmas is my favourite holiday. I’m an only child and my parents live in South Carolina, which is where I grew up. So I usually go home. We make our own stuff and we go to the nursery and get all fresh greens. My mom always has a baking list for us, which is fun.”

Kristin, 44, also plans to treat herself to her favourite chocolate over the festive period.

She added: “My weakness is M+Ms. These days, if I want some, I will have them. I went through periods when I said, ‘I can’t have this,’ or, ‘I can’t have that.’ But now I don’t deprive myself.”

Singer Emma is quoted by the Daily Express newspaper as saying: “We all go over to David and Victoria’s for lovely food and good wine. It’s the only time we all get to see each other, we get a bit tipsy and listen to Spice Girls songs. I can’t believe I’ve admitted that!”

In addition to preparing for their annual get together, the former bandmates have been spending a lot more time together recently as they work on their upcoming musical.

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.
