Katie Price

Katie Price has denied reports she’s reverted to her alter ego Jordan and her wild ways. Hmmm, let’s take a look at some of the evidence, shall we? Exhibit A: She’s paraded through Ibiza in some trash-tastic outfits. Exhibit B: She’s been drinking and partying. Exhibit C: She’s been wearing so much make-up that you could mistake her for a panda. Exhibit D: She’s been spotted with a string of male models, wearing skimpier and, if it were possible, more trash-tastic outfits. Her defence? “Jordan isn’t back! I’m Katie Price,” Katie wrote in her regular column for OK! magazine. “Pete was away with the kids and I was in Ibiza to film my show and shoot my calendar and I went out a few times – but so what? I didn’t have any hangovers, though – I didn’t’ drink that much – I’m just a lightweight,” Peter Andre has also admitted phoning his estranged wife to tell her she is out of control after seeing the pictures of her partying in Ibiza. The pop star admitted to New magazine, “I had to give her a few home truths and I wanted to say what I had to say to her directly.” The jury’s out on this one.

Guy Ritchie

Madonna and Guy Ritchie are reported to be back on good terms again, although we wonder how long that will last for. The Daily Star claims insiders say the singer invited Guy to meet Mercy James, the Malawian child she adopted. “He met her at Madonna’s house and they bonded immediately,” a source said. “He nicknamed her Koala, as she has this habit of clinging to people and not letting go.” Ah how sweet!

Johnny Depp

OK, so technically we realise this could count as Michael Jackson news, but we think it’s important Johnny Depp news too. Johnny Depp and Jamie Foxx are rumoured to be in talks to play Michael Jackson in a film based on the singer’s incredible life, Showbiz Spy reported this week.

Insiders say Hollywood filmmakers are already planning a biopic of the late star and are planning to present a number of ideas to the Jackson family once they have overcome their grief. Apparently there are a number of offers being drawn up. “Some involve using archive footage of Michael and his family and footage from his live shows,” a Hollywood insider claims. “A couple would even have an actor cast to play Michael. Jamie Foxx has been mentioned, as has Johnny Depp. It all depends on how his family decide to honour him.”

Simon Cowell just became one of the most eligible bachelors in the UK, actually scratch that, the world. The music mogul is to be paid £88m a year to renew his American Idol contract, the Guardian newspaper has claimed. Sources say Simon is already paid £22m a year by the show’s producers Fox and 19 Entertainment under the terms of his current contract. But the agreement is due to expire in May and Cowell is negotiating hard and has enlisted the help of his friend, Topshop owner, Sir Philip Green. “This is about properly owning himself, an insider said. “Brand Cowell, everything he does, new formats and new programs, not just the ones starring him.” Someone get a ring on his finger, quick! We bet Terri Seymour is kicking herself now.

Christian Bale

Christian Bale,Johnny Depp Christian Bale Christian Bale has cemented the fact he’s just not that nice-a-guy by admitting he didn’t actually speak to Johnny Depp while filming Public Enemies. Bale told The Chicago Times, “I wish not to talk unless we’re doing a scene. I enjoy it that way, Johnny seemed happy to do it that way, too.” We’d be happy if you didn’t talk either, Christian.

Anna said she wanted the woman kicked out, but then everything started to escalate and she and the other woman started shoving and pushing each other.” The insider added the other woman grabbed Kournikova by the neck and pushed her into a wall before security broke them apart.
