SHEEN BLASTS RICHARDS FOR RUINING HIS ‘QUALITY TIME’ WITH KIDS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:36 pm

CHARLIE SHEEN has lashed out at his ex-wife DENISE RICHARDS for ruining a weekend (25Aug07) trip to the beach with the couple’s two daughters.
The actor claims he struggled to enjoy his time with his kids (25Aug07), because he was being constantly monitored by Richards’ assistant.
The actor and fiancee Brooke Mueller had a court-ordered supervised visit with Sam, three; and Lola, 2; in Malibu on Saturday, amid a fresh court fight over custody agreements.
Sheen recently went public with claims he doesn’t approve of the girls’ nanny his ex-wife has hired, and he wants more relaxed visits.
And his weekend woes have simply fired him up further.
Sheen says, "Here is my and Brooke’s weekend with my kids being sullied by one of her (Richards) spies.
"That is the thing I have to put a stop to. I can’t spend quality time times I’m never going to get again - quite frankly being observed by a perfect stranger."

ALBA HAS LAST LAUGH OVER SCHOOL CRUSH

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:33 pm

Hollywood beauty JESSICA ALBA has had the last laugh over a boy who turned her down at school - she dedicated her recent Female Hottie award to him.
The stunning actress picked up the award at the annual Teen Choice awards on Sunday night (26Aug07) - and was quick to humiliate her unrequited love.
Alba, 24, says, "I would like to dedicate this award to a young man who has been on my mind for the last 19 years: Ross.
"Ross didn’t love me. I was pigeon-toed, I had a sway back, I was slightly cross-eyed, buck-toothed, I sucked my thumb. Look at me now, Ross! Look at me now!"

SPEARS’ EX-MANAGER DETERMINED TO STAY HIDDEN

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:33 pm

LATEST: BRITNEY SPEARS’ sacked manager LARRY RUDOLPH is still on the run after holidaying with his kids in Maui, Hawaii - where he has been trying to avoid a subpoena from KEVIN FEDERLINE’s legal team.
In an email to Los Angeles DJ Ryan Seacrest over the weekend (25-26Aug07), Rudolph, who was fired as Spears’ manager at the beginning of 2007 after a brief reconciliation with the troubled star, confessed he’s keen to avoid having to testify against the Toxic singer.
Spears’ ex-husband’s legal team has already rounded up the pop star’s cousin Alli Sims, former bodyguard Damien Shippen and ex-assistant Shannon Funk and served them with subpoenas to testify as part of an upcoming child custody battle.
And Rudolph is determined to avoid a messy day in court.
Speaking on his Kiis FM show on Monday morning (27Aug07), American Idol host Seacrest said, "He said that he’s doing his best to hide from Kevin’s process server.
"He doesn’t want to be served because it wouldn’t be good for Britney…
Under oath he doesn’t want to have to testify… (because), after all that he’s been through, he’s still loyal to her."

VICK APOLOGISES FOR DOGFIGHTING DISGRACE

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:27 pm

Disgraced American football icon MICHAEL VICK has publicly apologised for his part in an illegal dogfighting operation, which could land him behind bars for up to 18 months.
The Atlanta Falcons quarterback has admitted he financed a dogfighting operation as part of a plea agreement in Virginia to lessen prison time.
After a brief hearing in court on Monday (27Aug07), Vick staged a press conference, where he apologised for his heinous actions and revealed he has turned his life over to God as he awaits sentencing.
Vick told reporters, "I wanna apologise for all the things that I’ve done and I’ve allowed to happen… I want to apologise to all the young kids out there for my immature acts. What I did was very immature, so what that means is I have to grow up "I totally ask for forgiveness and understanding as I move forward to bettering Michael Vick the person, not the football player. I take full responsibility for my actions.
"We all make mistakes. I made a mistake and used bad judgment… Those things just can’t happen.
"Dog fighting is a terrible thing and I didn’t reject it. I’m upset with myself.
"Through this situation, I found Jesus and asked him for forgiveness and I’ve turned my life over to God. I think that’s the right thing to do.
"I think it will help me as a person. I’ve got a lot to think about in the next year or so… I will redeem myself. I have to." Vick has already been sentenced by America’s National Football League and his sponsors - NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has suspended Vick indefinitely without pay and the sports star’s sponsors Nike have pulled all advertising connected to Vick.
Richmond, Virginia, U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson spoke with Vick on Monday and will now take three to four months to review the charges against Vick and decide the football player’s fate.

JAMIE T MISSED OUT ON A MEETING WITH SICK HOSKINS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:27 pm

British singer JAMIE T missed the chance the chance to meet one of his heroes, BOB HOSKINS, on the set of his SHEILA video - because he was seriously ill.
The veteran actor agreed to appear in the promo last year (06), but the singer - real name Jamie Treays - was too sick to be introduced to Hoskins.
Treays admits, "The producer of the video asked Bob Hoskins if he would do it. I was in Scandinavia, on my death bed with flu. It all went on without me being there." (JC/WNBIN/MEH) WENN - FIFTH - HOLLYWOOD, SHOWBIZ & PEOPLE NEWS - 27 AUGUST 2007

X FACTOR judges SHARON OSBOURNE and DANNII MINOGUE have created their own contest to keep them entertained during filming of the show - who has the most ‘bling’? The pair appear weekly on the British talent search, but it seems they are taking their contest - dubbed Rock Factor - more seriously.
Minogue says, "Sharon and I have started our own game called Rock Factor whoever wears the most diamonds wins.
"To be fair, I think Sharon has a mighty head start on me, but wait until the live shows." The comment seems to confound new reports the two women are feuding on the set.

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:24 pm

THE PUSSYCAT DOLLS singer NICOLE SCHERZINGER has hit out at criticism about her sexy image, urging people to judge her on her talent instead.

She tells MTV.com, "I read blogs, and I hear what people are saying about me, and I think that it’s a compliment (when people say) that I’m keeping it sexy, because that’s just me.
"I’m an artist and that’s why I’m here, and if anyone feels different, then give it a shot and give it a listen, and you’ll see."

RIMES: ‘FAMILY PRESSURED ME TO BE PERFECT’

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:24 pm

LeANN RIMES was groomed to become the perfect child star, according to the country singer herself.
The BLUE hitmaker reveals she was schooled at a young age to prepare for fame - and she admits it all became too much.
She says," Dad managed me, Mom travelled everywhere with me and so much of what happened to me was great. But coming from the South, there was always this obsession with me being prim and proper and I was constantly schooled in what to say and how to behave.
"So inevitably there came a point when I had to find out who LeAnn Rimes the person was, as opposed to LeAnn Rimes the celebrity." The 24-year-old filed a lawsuit against her father in 2000, claiming he stole $7 million (£3.5 million) of her earnings. The pair have since reconciled.

REMY MA’S INJURED NEIGHBOUR BLASTS RAPPER

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:24 pm

LATEST: REMY MA’s alleged shooting victim has accused the troubled rapper of committing crimes in a bid to "make a name" for herself.
Makeda Barnes-Joseph, 23, was hospitalised after claiming she was shot by the hip-hop star outside a New York City nightclub last month (Jul07).
Remy Ma, real name Remy Smith, has been charged with attempted murder, assault and criminal possession of a weapon and is currently free on $250,000 (£125,000) bail.
Barnes-Joseph was released from hospital earlier this month (Aug07), but is confined to her bed from her injuries and sees a physical therapist three times a week.
She tells the New York Daily News, "They (celebrities) feel that they can do whatever they want and get away with it. They think that because they’re rappers that they need to make a name for themselves.
"It’s ridiculous, the stupid things she’s doing. Because they’re hard-core female rappers, they (think they) have to live up to what they say in their raps.
"I sit here and I try to think every day, ‘Why is she doing that? How can she deny that?"

KEIRA KNIGHTLEY has attributed her recent poor acting performances on taking too many roles in a short period of time.
The actress has been the target of critics lately who claim she "can’t act" in several of her films, but the British beauty insists it was just a case of working too much.
She says, "I have had to learn a lot in a very short time. One thing is to try not to pack too much in. I went directly from playing Elizabeth Bennet in Pride & Prejudice to Domino with just a four day break, for example. It was a crazy thing to do."

Kilembe says, "There has been a change of mind by my government minister and she has allowed me to leave for the UK on September 4 and I am expected to spend two weeks."
