Guy Ritchie

This week Guy Ritchie announced that he will not be fighting with ex-wife Madonna over plans to move their children to New York (and who can blame him?). A source said that Guy was “happy” with the court’s decision to approve the kids move to live with their mum in the states. The source told the Mirror, “He is adamant he wants to keep the boys and their sister Lourdes together. He does not want to tear them apart from each other.” In the media battle, we think that’s one-nil to Guy, as he makes Madonna out to be the harsh b*tch who took his kids away, and he’s only worried about their happiness.

 

Kate Moss

She’s a world renowned supermodel who’s dabbled with singing, but now it looks like Kate Moss is setting her sights on another career path – acting. “She’s always had dream of acting,” an insider told News Of The World. “Kate’s nervous, but feels, with the right backing, she can make the transition from supermodel to Hollywood star.” Just what we need! The source added that Kate is being helped in her career switch by Leaving Las Vegas director Mike Figgis, who worked with Kate on a 2006 Agent Provocateur advert.

Cheryl Cole

Skinny Minny Cheryl Cole has started a junk food diet in a bid to put on weight for a 10-day charity trek up Mount Kilimanjaro. The X Factor judge will be joined by Gary Barlow, Ronan Keating, Chris Moyles, Kimberley Walsh, Denise Van Outen, Fearne Cotton and Ben Shephard and has been advised by a personal trainer to eat junk to add some pounds a source told the Mirror. “While most girls would dread the thought of getting bigger, Cheryl can’t wait to spoil herself with her favourite treats.” We’re sure she can’t – neither could we if getting bigger meant going from a size zero to a six! We’re also excited to see the exchanges between Kimberley, Cheryl and Chris Moyles after he very publicly bullied their Girls Aloud bandmate Nicola Roberts – should make for some good telly! 

Simon Cowell

Simon Cowell has had to speak out again to deny rumours that he is gay. The X Factor judge has spoken out about rumours surrounding his sexuality but told the Daily Star he feels it’s not an issue. “I am not gay. But in this business, if you were it wouldn’t matter.”  Simon’s also been cementing his heterosexuality this week when he told an interviewer for The Guardian that if he could kiss anyone in the world, he would kiss Cheryl Cole. “I’m going to get into so much trouble after this.” The TV mogul joked. “I want a disclaimer first of all that I’m going to say this person as if they weren’t married… so I am going to say Cheryl Cole.” He hastily added, “Who wouldn’t? This is just pretend, right?” We’re sure that there are men all over the UK nodding their heads in agreement right now.

Amy Winehouse

It seems that Britney Spears has set a trend yet again. She set one for pigtails back in 1997, red PVC in 1999 and now she’s set a trend for handing control of your money to your parents. Amy Winehouse has been following suit and has handed over control of her fortune to her parents a source has told the Sunday Mirror. “Mitch convinced Amy she needs a safety valve for the money for her own good – to stop her doing anything daft or rash.” Although we think it might be a little too late for that. “It’s evidence that Amy is really turning her life around,” the source added.

Victoria Beckham

We all hate that feeling when you think a friend has been phasing you out, but Victoria Beckham does it too. She’s ended her friendship with chef Gordon Ramsay after reports that he had an affair with Sarah Symonds. Gordon and his wife Tana were regular guests at the Beckham’s LA home, but sources have told the Daily Mail that Posh has decided to cut the chef out of their social circle. “Victoria and Gordon were good friends, and were even discussing a plan to set up a restaurant in LA,” a source said. “But Victoria has put distance between them following the story about Gordon cheating.” We’re sure that Gordon’s got much more on his plate to worry about, however.  Ramsay has consistently denied the affair.

Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie has admitted that she’s rooting for partner Brad Pitt to win an award at this year’s Oscars. No pressure Brad! Brad has been nominated in the Best Actor category for his role in The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button and is up against Richard Jenkins, Frank Langella, Sean Penn and Mickey Rourke. Angelina won an Academy Award in 2000 for her supporting role in Girl, Interrupted and told Nightline, “I feel, for an actress, if you’ve ever [won an Oscar] in your career, it’s nice. Many people have had great careers and never won.” We think she’s trying to tell Brad that it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t win; it’s the taking part that counts. Yeah right! 

Jade Goody

Jade Goody confirmed this week that her cervical cancer has spread to her bowel, liver and groin. The former Big Brother star and mother of two has been receiving chemotherapy treatment since being diagnosed in August 2008, she received news of the illness while in the diary room for Big Boss, India’s version of the reality TV show. “I am devastated, frightened and angry. I don’t want to die, I have so much to live for,” Jade told the Sun. “The reality is I have gone from a 40% chance of a cure to a seeing how long I can stay alive. I am hoping a new type of treatment will suppress and control the cancer, which is very aggressive. I am in a nightmare.” handbag.com’s thoughts are with Jade and her family at this most distressing time.
