KIDMAN REFUSES A NANNY FOR SUNDAY ROSE

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 3:30 pm

NICOLE KIDMAN is refusing to hire a nanny to look after her baby daughter SUNDAY ROSE, even if it jeopardises her acting career.
The Australian star is besotted with the four-month-old - whose dad is Kidman’s husband, country star Keith Urban - and can’t yet bring herself to leave her alone for a second.
But she admits she will have to let go eventually - or face retiring from acting altogether.
The actress tells Glamour magazine, "I can’t bear to be separated from Sunday Rose. That’s why I haven’t got a daytime nanny, but at some stage I probably will have one."

WINEHOUSE ‘SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING’ DIVORCE

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 3:27 pm

Troubled star AMY WINEHOUSE is on the verge of divorcing her newly freed husband BLAKE FIELDER-CIVIL - because she doesn’t know if she wants a future with him.
Fielder-Civil was released from Highpoint Prison in Suffolk, England on Wednesday (05Oct08) after striking a deal with prosecutors for an early release. He was sentenced to 27 months behind bars earlier this year (08) after being convicted of causing actual bodily harm (ABH) and perverting the course of justice.
Since he walked free, Fielder-Civil has checked into a drug treatment centre in Surrey, south east England, in a bid to kick his addiction to narcotics as part of the bargain.
But Rehab hitmaker Winehouse has yet to visit her spouse since he was released - and she’s reportedly "seriously considering" putting an end to her short-lived marriage so she can leave her troubles in the past.
According to Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper, she’s been telling pals, "I don’t know if I want to be with him.
"Everything has changed. I’m trying to move on and I can’t take the pain any more. I’m still thinking about whether to see him." A source close to Winehouse adds, "Things are really bad between her and Blake. She doesn’t know any more if he’s ‘the one’. It is really sad but this could be the end." And the insider admits the singer’s dad Mitch is also keen to keep Winehouse away from her husband: "Amy is his priority. All he cares about is her.
Everything else is a distraction - especially Blake." Winehouse wed Fielder-Civil in a surprise ceremony in Miami, Florida in May 2007.

WOOD SPEAKS OUT ABOUT MANSON SPLIT TO DISMISS RUMOURS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 3:27 pm

Actress EVAN RACHEL WOOD has blasted reports she dumped shock rocker MARILYN MANSON after a bitter row, insisting their break up was amicable.
News about the couple’s relationship split hit the headlines earlier this week (ends07Nov08) amid claims of tension between the lovers over her brother Ira, who had been living with them.
Sources claimed 39-year-old Manson tried to throw Ira out of the guest house at the Hollywood home he shares with his girlfriend.
But Wood, 21, has blasted the allegations, branding the so-called ‘insider’ a liar who has no current links to her.
She tells People.com, "Manson and I both decided to take some time apart so we could concentrate on work. Someone used that opportunity to kick us while we were down and sell a completely false story.
"Manson owns the house he lives in. My brother has never stayed there and the person that said such horrible things about Manson being ‘controlling’ and ‘emotionally abusive’ is certainly no source ‘close’ to me. Manson has been by my side and taken care of me through the best and worst times. I love him as a person and as an artist. I will always be proud to have been a part of that.
"If any more attacks are made on us, it is the act of a desperate, selfish person, who is angry to no longer be a part of my life. No further comment will be made and we request our privacy at this time." Manson and Thirteen star Wood began dating in December 2006, following his split from then-wife, burlesque star Dita Von Teese.

CAREY MADE CANNON WAIT UNTIL MARRIAGE BEFORE SEX

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 3:24 pm

Pop superstar MARIAH CAREY made husband NICK CANNON wait for two months before they first had sex - because she wanted to wait until she was a married woman.
The Hero hitmaker wed rapper/actor Cannon in the Bahamas in April (08) after a whirlwind romance.
But Carey, who was previously married to Sony Records boss Tommy Mottola, insisted they refrained from complete intimacy until they had exchanged vows.
She says, "It’s not that we had no intimacy. It’s just me, and my feelings.
"I definitely don’t want to push it on anybody else. But we both have similar beliefs, and I just thought that it would be so much more special if we waited until after we were married. And it was, and it still is."

ROBIN’S SHOW AXED

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 3:21 pm

BATMAN’s sidekick ROBIN has had his own TV show cancelled before it has even begun.
New programme The Graysons was to explore Robin’s alter-ego Dick ‘DJ’ Grayson before he paired up with the caped crusader.
But the project, which was in its early stages of production, has been halted by U.S. network The CW, because "the concept doesn’t fit the current strategy for the Batman franchise".
Bosses at Warner Bros. say they need some time to "rethink its DC Comics strategy".
However, CW bosses have insisted rumours that The Dark Knight director Christopher Nolan was "uncomfortable" with the show’s direction has nothing to do with the decision to axe it.
Robin was last portrayed on film by Chris O’Donnell in 1997’s Batman & Robin.

Veteran rocker RONNIE WOOD has been invited to spend Christmas (08) with his family back home - despite walking out on wife JO after having an affair.
The couple is reportedly seeking legal advice about getting a divorce after 23 years of marriage - but Jo has extended an offer of peace for the sake of their children over the holidays.
She says, "I’m looking forward to Christmas and Ronnie is, of course, invited.
"But I don’t know if he’ll be there. I’ll save a place at the dinner table for my ex but only if he can be bothered to call." The musician moved out of the family home in Surrey, south east England, in October (08) to live with his new girlfriend - Russian waitress Ekaterina Ivanova.

He’ll have to decide on his own." The estranged couple has three kids together, including sons Tyrone, 24, and Jamie, 33, as well as six grandchildren.

JUDGE ORDERS PRINCE TO PAY DISGRUNTLED VIDEO EDITOR

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 3:18 pm

Soul superstar PRINCE has been ordered to pay up for using the services of a video editor after he was sued for unpaid wages.
Ian C. Lewis filed a $1 million (£632,900) lawsuit against the singer and Paisley Park Enterprises last year (07), alleging the star failed to honour his work contract and damaged equipment belonging to the technician.
The case went to trial this month (Nov08) and Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Gregory Alarcon ruled this week (ends07Nov08) that Prince had to hand over $58,000 (£36,700) for the wages claim.
However, the judge disagreed with Lewis’ allegation the star had broken a $25,000 (£15,820) computer - because he couldn’t provide any receipts to verify the cost of the equipment.
Prince was not present in court for the ruling; he was not even represented by an attorney.

PERRY WARNS OFF MCCOY’S FEMALE ADMIRERS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 3:15 pm

Pop star KATY PERRY was left fuming backstage at the MTV Europe Music Awards on Thursday (06Nov08) after spotting a group of women flirting with her boyfriend, rapper TRAVIS McCOY.
The I Kissed A Girl hitmaker, who hosted the ceremony in Liverpool, England, reportedly became angry when she saw some girls touching the Gym Class Heroes frontman’s piercings and tattoos.
According to British tabloid reports, Perry glared at the girls before saying, "Why don’t you whores just p**s off?" But the singer need not have worried about McCoy cheating on her - because he is totally besotted with Perry.
A source says, "Katy may have been the woman of the moment at the awards but that didn’t stop girls flocking round her man.
"Travis was presenting from the red carpet and also got up onstage, so he was in the spotlight too. Plus he’s massive in the States.
"Katy had nothing to worry about though. Travis only had eyes for her. He was constantly stroking her hand and being all touchy-feely. After she told those girls to p**s off, Travis refused to make eye contact with a single female in the room."

POLICE EXPLAIN DELAY IN MOS DEF ARREST WARRANTS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 3:15 pm

LATEST: Las Vegas authorities have defended the issue of a warrant for the arrest of rapper/actor MOS DEF three months after an alleged attack - insisting they needed time to fully investigate the case before questioning the star.
Two warrants were issued for the star, real name Dante Smith, on Tuesday (04Nov08) in connection to a clash with a fashion photographer in August (08).
Mos Def faces charges of felony robbery and malicious destruction of private property after photographer Volker Corell claimed the rap star ripped a camera from his neck, smashed it to the ground and then took off with it.
But local police have been under pressure to justify the long delay.
Public Information Officer Ramon Denby explains, "The initial report was taken by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitor’s Authority. By the time we arrived, the property, which in this case was a Nikon camera, had been returned. Detectives then took statements from witnesses and spoke to the victim and proceeded to gather the necessary evidence to turn the case over to the District Attorney’s office.
"We have to have a certain amount of evidence to present a case to the D.A.’s office, who then makes the determination to move forward. "This was just a standard investigating time." Mos Def is currently touring in Europe and authorities are awaiting his lawyers getting in touch to organise a self surrender upon his return, reports AllHipHop.com.

HILTON’S FILM SAVAGED BY CRITICS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 2:57 am

PARIS HILTON’s new movie has been savaged by critics, who fear director DARREN LYNN BOUSMAN’s toughest job was editing the socialite out of his film.
The Saw films director had admitted he had reservations about signing Hilton up for his movie, but insists she was a pleasure to work with. But critics state she isn’t a pleasure to watch on screen in Repo! The Genetic Opera.
Los Angeles Times critic Mark Olsen writes, "The film is bad - not good-bad, tacky-bad or fun-bad, just plain awful and nearly unwatchable." And he’s even more scathing of Hilton’s performance in the bizarre cosmetic surgery horror musical.
Olsen adds, "It seems the production has had to cut around the ubiquitous Paris Hilton, as she is never glimpsed in anything but brief, fleeting shots and her hoarse bark of a singing voice is used as little as possible." Meanwhile, the San Jose Mercury suggests the film is "as bad as it gets", adding it’s "easily one of the worst movies of the year, if not all time." The film is released in U.S. cinemas on Friday (07Nov08).
