ROBERTS LAUGHED THROUGH LOVE SCENES

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 1:48 pm

JULIA ROBERTS got into trouble when filming love scenes with DUPLICITY co-star CLIVE OWEN - because the actress couldn’t stop laughing.
The pair share a partial nude bedroom scene - and Roberts admits she and good friend Owen struggled to stay serious during filming, much to the annoyance of the director.
She says, "It was awful and awkward, we were just laughing. The director, Tony Gilroy, would yell at us then we would try to kiss without laughing and we’d fail and Tony would yell at us again. So eventually, we would get in so much trouble that we just got through it.
"But that’s what makes it fun, to be with your pal, because you can turn that awkwardness into silliness."

HILTON LEFT ‘VIOLATED’ OVER PHONE THEFT

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 1:45 pm

PARIS HILTON was devastated by the theft of her cellphone, insisting the incident left her feeling "violated".
New York hotel manager Marc Marrouche was arrested after he was allegedly caught trying to sell the Simple Life star’s phone on the internet.
His ex-girlfriend found the handset at Manhattan nightclub Marquee in 2005 and Marrouche reportedly advertised the phone on website Craigslist for $5,000 (£3,570), prompting his arrest by an undercover police officer.
And Hilton admits the whole incident has left her traumatised.
She tells RadarOnline.com, "That was my private property. I can’t believe someone would try and sell my phone on Craigslist. I feel violated." Marrouche has been charged with criminal possession of stolen property and faces a year behind bars if convicted.

SMITH PSYCHOLOGIST PAYS $20,000 BAIL

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 1:45 pm

The psychologist accused of illegally prescribing drugs to ANNA NICOLE SMITH has been released from jail after posting $20,000 (£14,280) bail.
Dr. Khristine Eroshevich turned herself into Van Nuys Jail in California on Monday morning (16Mar09).
She was released several hours later once she had paid bail, according to the office of her attorney Adam Braun.
The news comes just three days after Smith’s longtime boyfriend and lawyer, Howard K. Stern, was booked on the same charges.
Eroshevich stands accused of conspiring with Stern, and another doctor, Sandeep Kapoor, to keep the late model with a steady supply of prescription drugs - despite knowing she was an addict.
Smith died in February 2007 from combined drug intoxication. Her death came just months after her 20-year-old son Daniel passed away and the birth of her daughter, Dannielynn.

STEFANI STOLE SON’S NAME FROM NO DOUBT BANDMATE

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 1:45 pm

GWEN STEFANI looked to an unusual source when deciding what to call her new son - she named the baby ZUMA after her NO DOUBT bandmate suggested the moniker.
It was reported that Stefani and Gavin Rossdale named their seven-month old tot after the couple’s favourite California beach.
But the singer has revealed her second son’s unusual name actually came from the band’s guitarist Tom Dumont, whose wife Mieke rejected it for their two sons, Ace and Rio.
Stefani tells radio show Mojo in the Morning, "I kind of stole it from him. I didn’t steal it, I mean his wife didn’t want it. It was just one of those things that just happened. I just wanted Zuma to have a little bit of a quirky name." The couple also has a two year old son, Kingston.

KID CUDI QUITS RAP - BEFORE DEBUT RELEASE

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 1:42 pm

Rapper KID CUDI has vowed never to release another solo album following his forthcoming debut record - insisting he doesn’t want to deal with the pressures of the music industry.
The Day ‘N Nite star is slated to release his first album, Man on the Moon: The Guardians, in the summer (09).
But Kid Cudi - real name Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi - is already finding it hard to adjust to the difficulties that accompany fame, because of negativity he has faced so early on in his career.
He writes on his blog, "After the release of my first LP this summer, I am not making any more solo albums.
"I am falling back on being an artist. The drama that comes with it is more overwhelming than the s**t I was dealing wit (sic) when I was p**s poor broke. My friends get mad at me, say I’ve changed.
"I don’t look at it as quitting for I have already accomplished my goal. I have a solid fan base who truly appreciates me and my messages through song. I got multiple big records. I have received worldwide critical acclaim from the biggest tastemakers in the game. No regrets." Despite his early days in the limelight, the star has already received bad press - he was tasered by police following a fight with two event employees at the NBA’s All-Star weekend in February (09).

LIL’ KIM DANCING TO MAKE MUM PROUD

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 1:39 pm

Rapper LIL’ KIM is finally glad to witness her mum crying - because she is welling up with pride at her daughter’s turn on hit U.S. talent show DANCING WITH THE STARS.
The Lady Marmalade star wowed the judges with her debut performance on the popular series last week (09Mar09), with a top score of 21 out of 30.
The star recently admitted that she was determined to compete on the show - because it’s "the number one show in prison".
Lil’ Kim served time behind bars for a year and a day in 2005 after being found guilty of perjury in relation to a New York shoot-out in 2001.
But the hip-hop star is finally doing something her mum can boast about.
She says, "My mom loves the show, and with me going to prison and everything, I feel like my mom has been through so much.
"I’ve seen her cry a million and one times. I’ve seen her look at me like, ‘I know my daughter has potential. I know this is not what God wanted her career and her life to be.’ So I look at her now, and if she has tears of joy, that makes me happy."

THE EDGE BLASTED OVER HOUSING PLANS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 1:36 pm

The Irish guitarist, real name David Evans, wants to erect a range of private homes in the exclusive beachfront community where he lives.
But neighbours have hit out at the proposal - claiming the 1,000-acre development would destroy a popular archery club and have a disastrous affect on wildlife.
A local resident tells U.K. newspaper The Sun, "The sheer size of this project will have a detrimental effect. In addition to huge portions of mountainside being carved up, there are proposed buildings that will completely destroy existing views.”

TARRANT DENIES ASSAULT CLAIMS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 1:36 pm

British TV host CHRIS TARRANT has played down reports he assaulted his girlfriend during a domestic incident, insisting the couple simply had a drunken argument.
The Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? presenter was arrested earlier this month (Mar09) after his lover Jane Bird reportedly alleged she was attacked at his home in Esher, south England.
Tarrant was later released without charge - and he has now denied assaulting his girlfriend.
He says, "’We had a row - it happens. We were both a bit tipsy, we’d had some fine wine. We might have had a few bottles. Someone called the police, but I want to emphasise that absolutely nothing physical happened.
"There was some shouting and arguing but I absolutely did not try to push her out of the front door. I went to the police station and after they did their investigation I was released - I was only there for two hours in the cell. A nice policeman gave me a lift home in his personal car."

MR. MAGOO CO-CREATOR DIES

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 1:33 pm

The Oscar-nominated screenwriter who co-created the cartoon character MR. MAGOO has passed away.
Millard Kaufman was 92 when he died of heart failure on Saturday (14Mar09) in Los Angeles.
Kaufman first conceived the short-sighted, clumsy Mr. Magoo with animator John Hubley for their 1949 theatrical short Ragtime Bear.
That film was a box office success, and the co-creators subsequently handed over the series to director Pete Burness, who won two Oscars with the 1955 film When Magoo Flew and 1956’s Magoo’s Puddle Jumper.
Kaufman later went on to write the World War II boot camp drama Take The High Ground, which earned him a Best Original Screenplay Academy Award nomination in 1954; his second Oscar nod came for his Western film Bad Day At Black Rock two years later.
He also tried his hand at penning novels, publishing his first effort Bowl Of Cherries in 2007. His second novel Misadventure will be released posthumously this autumn (09).
Kaufman is survived by Lorraine, his wife of 66 years, two daughters, a son and seven grandchildren.

ICE-CREAM GIFT BRINGS KIRK DOUGLAS TO TEARS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:39 am

An ice-cream cone MICHAEL DOUGLAS presented to his father KIRK at the close of the final night of his one-man show brought the movie veteran to tears on Sunday night (15Mar09).
The gift may have seemed odd when the Wall Street star hit the stage at the Kirk Douglas Theater in Culver City, California, but it was a huge, symbolic gesture for his father.
During the show, Kirk revealed that his father never paid much attention to him, until one day he chose to attend his son’s first acting appearance in a kindergarten play.
Douglas’ dad never praised his son for his acting skills - but he bought the young Kirk an ice-cream cone.
The 92-year-old Hollywood legend revealed the cone was his "personal Oscar" which spurred him on to become an actor.
