Posted in: Royal News — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:39 pm

The incident was caught on film and features in BBC1 documentary ‘A Year With The Queen’ following the queen as she prepared for her 80th birthday to be screened in the autumn.
Leibovitz tells the queen she thinks the portrait photograph will look better without her crown, to which the queen snaps: ‘Less dressy? What do you think this is? I’m not changing anything.’ Her Majesty then walks out.
The 81-year-old monarch does return to sit for the celebrity photographer, but is also shown telling her: ‘I’ve had enough of dressing like this, thank you very much.’ Leibovitz’s final portrait photograph feature the monarch sitting on a gilt chair in Buckingham Palace’s White Drawing Room, wearing a crown, ornate jewellery and a lavish white gown with a white fur stole.
Royal photographer Arthur Edwards for Britain’s The Sun newspaper believes Leibovitz pushed the queen too far.
He told BBC Radio Five Live: ‘I think Annie Leibovitz went over the mark.
‘Every photographer just asks for one more ‘can we do this, can we do that?’ but the queen wasn’t having it, and when she was asked to take off her tiara she threw a tantrum. ‘It was great to see the queen can get into a strop.
‘Prince Charles has given me a couple of rollickings over the time, and now I know where he gets it from.’ The BBC documentary shows the queen and other members of the royal family performing their royal duties. It includes the queen’s 80th birthday celebrations, the British State Opening of Parliament, and the queen and her husband Prince Phillip’s recent US tour. BBC1 controller Peter Fincham said the broadcasting corporation were given ‘remarkable access’ to the royal family for the show.

Kate Middleton, the girlfriend of Britain’s Prince William, has topped Tatler’s 100 Most Invited list.

Posted in: Royal News — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:39 pm

The 25-year-old was named the magazine’s most sought after party guest ahead of Britain’s former prime minister Tony Blair and his wife Cherie.
The magazine gushed: ‘Suddenly single, this sexy siren is super in-demand. Life after Wills is rather better than you’d imagine.’ It is the second time Kate has made the eagerly anticipated annual list. In 2004, when she was merely rumoured to be William’s girlfriend, she made it to number 12 on the annual poll.

A Tatler source told Britain’s Daily Mail: ‘Even if she’s back with William now, her position is assured. You can’t get much higher than No 1.’ It has been reported that although William engineered the initial split, claiming he was too young to settle down, he realised that he had made a mistake and asked Kate to take him back.
William is allegedly planning to whisk Kate away on a romantic holiday in August so they can spend some quality time together.

100 Most Invited - top 10.

1. Kate Middleton
2. Tony and Cherie Blair
3. Jemima Khan

Britain’s Prince Charles was left red faced after being pictured with his hands hovering over the breasts of attractive female soldier.

Posted in: Royal News — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:39 pm

Charles was presenting service medals to 44 soldiers from nine regiment of the Army Air Corps at Clarence House - Charles’ official London home - yesterday (11.07.07), when he was caught in the embarrassing pose.
The prince was going down the line pinning a medal to chest of each soldier in recognition of their regiment’s tour of Afghanistan, when he seemed particularly taken with the blonde woman.
Charles stopped to chat with the female soldier and animatedly waved his hands around in front of her, unfortunately giving the waiting photographers the perfect opportunity to snap him in the compromising position.
The regiment, who are based at Dishforth, in North Yorkshire, served in Afghanistan for 13 months. They all received Operation Herrick service medals, named after the campaign codename.
As he walked along the parade the prince chatted about the conflict in Afghanistan with Sergeant Nick Cole, who has flown Apache helicopters in the highly dangerous Helmand Province.
Sergeant Cole told Britain’s The Sun newspaper: ‘The prince said a lot of lead was flying out there and I said ‘Yes, quite a bit.’ ‘ Captain Nigel Tench, who also collected his Operation Herrick service medal, said Charles praised the soldiers for their service. He said: ‘The prince said he was very proud of them and said what a good job we’d done.’

Chelsy Davy, the girlfriend of Britain’s Prince Harry, enjoyed a girls’ night out at her favourite London club on Tuesday (10.07.07).

Posted in: Royal News — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:39 pm

The Zimbabwe-born blonde danced the night away with her pals at Mayfair’s exclusive Mahiki bar, while sipping on pricey cocktails.
One of the party girl’s favourite drinks is the Treasure Chest cocktail - a £100 beverage designed to serve eight people, which contains rum, brandy, peach liqueur and champagne.
However, Chelsy showed that while she was happy to splash out of the expensive drinks, she was still a down-to-earth girl and stepped out wearing a £45 dress.
The cream mini-dress, decorated with a brown floral motif, came from high-street store Warehouse.
The university graduate - whose father is multi-millionaire safari operator - complimented her look with some sexy brown boots.
Chelsy is not the only royal girlfriend to shop on the high-street.
In January, Britain’s Prince William’s love, Kate Middleton, caused a fashion stampede when she wore a £40 Topshop monochrome dress on her 25th birthday. The black and white tunic-style garment sold out on the fashion chain’s website within 24 hours of her being pictured wearing it.

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:31 pm

The blonde singer claims she hasn’t had any work done yet, but refused to rule out surgery in the future.

But you know, my boobs are real." Simpson, 27, has also revealed her ‘Dukes of Hazzard’ co-star Willie Nelson passed on some of his acting secrets to her.

Comparing her music and acting careers, she added: "In my music career, there have been moments of failure, and with acting, I haven’t had that yet. But music is opening up my heart and every emotion inside of me.’ Simpson completed filming ‘Blonde Ambition’ earlier this year, but the film’s release date has yet to be announced.

Adam Brody admits kissing Meg Ryan was ‘intimidating’.

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:31 pm

‘The O.C.’ star Adam, who plays Meg’s love interest in new movie ‘In the Land of Women’, was worried he wouldn’t live up to the actress’ expectations.
He told InStyle magazine: "It was a little intimidating when I started thinking about the fact that she has acted opposite some of the best actors of a generation. Like, ‘Oh man, I hope she’s not incredibly bummed that I’m not Russell Crowe or Tom Hanks. "But it’s great when you finish a scene and you feel as though you’re holding your own." Meanwhile, Adam is keen to grow a beard.
The handsome actor was banned from growing facial hair while filming hit US TV show ‘The O.C.’ and now the teen series is over, he wants to take advantage.
He revealed: "I’m going to grow the best beard I can. I’ve had to shave everyday for four years and I’ve never been more excited not to shave – I’ve dreamt about this. Granted, it’ll be a pretty pathetic beard, but I’m going to give it my best shot."

Pearl Lowe has branded Gwen Stefani’s husband Gavin Rossdale a bad father.

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:31 pm

The model-and-singer - who has an 18-year-old daughter Daisy with Bush frontman Gavin - claims the singer abandoned Daisy when he recently discovered he was more than her godfather.
Pearl - who is married to Supergrass drummer Danny Goffey - told Britain’s The Times newspaper: "Gavin was already in Daisy’s life as her godfather, and came to me saying I think we need to find out if I am the father. But when we set up meetings to have DNA tests he didn’t show up. It got weird and he stopped returning my calls.
"This guy’s a millionaire - he can at least give Danny back the money he’s spent. It’s been a traumatic time for us.
"I lost my best friend, Daisy lost her godfather and doesn’t have a dad. And she lost self-worth. Because when someone rejects you like that, you wonder what’s wrong with you.
"When he had his baby with Gwen, Daisy’s half-brother, he didn’t even tell her. She’s never seen the baby. Not to take responsibility and not to let your daughter even meet her grandparents and see her heritage is pretty sick." Gavin and Gwen now have a one-year-old son Kingston together.
Pearl said she does not think she will ever heal the rift with Gavin.
She said: "I really don’t care if I never see him ever again. He’s been incredibly vile. He saw Daisy at first, but he was always rude to her, he made it feel like it was her fault. It was her 18th birthday and there was no present, no phone call, nothing.’ A representative for Gavin refused to comment.

Drew and Spike, who were first seen together on Valentine’s Day this year, watched British band Klaxons at Los Angeles’ El Rey Theatre. They were spotted cuddling and kissing in a VIP booth, and Drew "playfully traced" Spike’s moustache before they kissed "for a good 10 seconds", according to People magazine.

A source said: "There was a moment when they kissed and it almost seemed blissful." Zach, 32, who recently revealed he is "dating" someone on his personal blog, was seen with Drew last Tuesday (03.07.07).
The pair went for a "romantic" stroll through New York’s SoHo neighbourhood and the ‘Garden State’ star had his arm wrapped around the 32-year-old actress.
Drew and Zach’s representatives have so far refused to comment on their apparent romance, while Spike’s spokesperson does not comment on his client’s personal life.
Drew, who was previously married to comedian Tom Green, split up with The Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti in January after a four-year relationship.

Lindsay Lohan’s MySpace page has apparently been hacked into revealing a lesbian love message she has allegedly written.

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:31 pm

The ‘Mean Girls’ star is said to have been using the private page to stay in touch with friends during her stay at Malibu’s Promises rehab centre, including a declaration of love sent to her female DJ friend Samantha Ronson.
Lindsay allegedly wrote late one night: ‘Babe, if I don’t have you in my life then I should just go die.
"I want to marry you and have children with you.
‘Go to bed babe.
‘I love you. Lindsay Ronson.’ At present, Lindsay’s MySpace page can only be accessed by 75 friends including Samantha, Nicole Richie and Lindsay’s younger sister Ali.
Samantha was in the car with Lindsay when she crashed into a Sunset Boulevard road curb in May. The actress was later arrested for DUI (driving under the influence), and police found a "usable amount" of cocaine in the vehicle.
Rumours 21-year-old Lindsay and Samantha - the sister of music producer Mark Ronson - have had a sexual relationship have previously surfaced.
In April, former celebrity publicist Jonathan Jaxson wrote in his blog at jonathanjaxson.blogspot.com: ‘Lindsay actually has always been quite open. Maybe she was tired of the boys and that is why she decided to spice it up with BFF (best friend forever) Samantha Ronson.
‘Now I would have no bad things to say about either if Samantha wasn’t deeply involved in alcohol and drugs. Not the best influence for a rehabbed Lindsay Lohan.’ Jaxson claimed Lindsay and Samantha’s fledgling same-sex romance had been confirmed by sources.

Kate Moss has burned former fiancé Pete Doherty’s love letters and poems.

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:31 pm

The supermodel, who kicked the troubled rocker out of her North London home last week after discovering he had cheated on her, made a bonfire and destroyed every sentimental note Pete ever gave her.
A source told Britain’s The Sun newspaper: "Kate gathered quite a collection of Pete’s rambling over the two years they were together. She has piles of love letters, poems, songs and paintings. Now Kate has decided to cleanse herself of him by burning the lot." Kate is said to be nursing her broken heart at her hairdresser friend James Brown’s house.
The pair first began dating after Kate’s 31st birthday party, when the Babyshambles rocker gave the supermodel a framed envelope with the lyrics to The Libertines’ song ‘What Katie Did’ written on it.
Kate, 33, was reportedly preparing to split from Pete even before learning he spent the night with a South African model - after discovering he took money from her house.
The source added: "They already had a huge row over money before Pete went out that night and met that girl. Kate claimed he had helped himself to cash she had stashed in her flat.
"She told friends she was angry he hadn’t asked her first. It had made her question whether she could trust him again. Pete’s reaction confirmed in Kate’s mind that it was time to let go." Last week, Pete was ordered by a judge to enter rehab to beat his drug addiction or face jail.
The singer pleaded guilty to possessing crack cocaine, heroin, cannabis and club drug ketamine, known as ‘Special K’, along with two driving offences.

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:31 pm

The former Hole singer spent her special day (09.07.07) drinking with ‘Mighty Boosh’ comedian Noel Fielding before returning to her £495-a-night Central London Hotel suite and causing hundreds of pounds worth of damage.
A source told Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper: "Staff said the room was left in a right state - like a wild animal had been let loose in there.
"She had used the place as an ashtray with butts strewn about and burn marks all over the bed, carpet and upholstery. I feel sorry for whoever had to clear it up." Earlier on Monday (09.07.07), Love showcased eleven new songs at an intimate show in London’s Bush Hall, before leaving with British comic Fielding.

Busta Rhymes is ‘packing’ it in the trouser department, according to a former lover.

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:31 pm

Radio DJ Tarsha Jones claims to have bedded the rapper and revealed his penis is eye-wateringly large.
Jones writes in her new book ‘Have You Met Miss Jones? The Life and Loves of Radio’s Most Controversial Diva’: ‘Busta was as gentle as he could be, because he was packing! ‘Busta’s lovemaking was not for the timid or faint of heart.
‘The fact that our lovemaking never lasted too long didn’t bother me, because I didn’t enjoy his drops of sweat raining down on me.’ The Hot-97 FM radio host also claims the ‘Touch It’ rapper once proposed to her in the throws of passion – but she knew not to take the offer seriously.
She said: "With Busta, it was only sex, I learned not to trust a proposal of marriage made in bed.
‘Afterwards Busta would stroll around the apartment butt-naked, then shower and go into the kitchen and fry an egg sandwich - for himself. I guess I should be grateful. It’s not like he didn’t offer me a bite.’ Jones also claims hip-hop mogul Jay-Z turned and stared at her ass and made a sexual remark when they first met.
She is less complimentary about his fiancée, Beyoncé Knowles, calling her a ‘barrel-a-d’ and commenting her ‘acting leaves something to be desired’.
