Angelina Jolie Says She And Brad Pitt Are Not Getting Married!

Will they ever tie the knot?

After months of speculation that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were secretly preparing to walk down the aisle, Angie has revelaed that she and her babby-daddy are not planning a wedding anytime soon.

Angie (36) told Vanity Fair magazine that there will be no big white wedding and rubbished claims that she is preggers again:

"There is no secret wedding... I’m not pregnant. I’m not adopting at the moment."

Notice that she said "at the moment", maybe there are a few more sprogs along the way. But despite not tying the knot, Angie says Brad has been helping her out on her directorial debut, with the new flick The Land Of Blood And Honey.

The Oscar-award-winning actress says he's been helping her out but she can't take his comments seriously:

"He’d come in and say what he liked or what he didn’t understand. Like any woman, I would listen to most of it and fight a few things. He’s been so supportive. But it’s hard to separate the person that loves you from the critic, so I don’t think he’s a fair judge."

Jolie wrote the script of her first film herself. She says she wrote the script, which is about a love story set in the Bosnian War when she was suffering from the flu and was alone in an attic:

"I was in the attic of a house in France. I was isolated, pacing. I don’t watch TV and I wasn’t reading anything. So I started writing. I went from the beginning to the end. I didn’t know any other way."

Angie says she never intended to direct the flick also but now she's happy to have her voice heard through her own script and movie making.

"I’ve never felt more exposed. My whole career, I’ve hidden behind other people’s words. Now it’s me talking. You feel ridiculous when you get something wrong."

Cheryl Cole Starts Filming Her Hollywood Debut!

So the rumours are true!

It was revealed a few weeks ago that singer Cheryl Cole was set to star in her first Hollywood movie What To Expect When Expecting. And now the Geordie has been spotted on set, starting to film her scenes.

The former X Factor judge who suffered multiple blows this summer when she was dropped from the US version of the show and then never returned to the UK version, looked over the moon to be starring alongside Jennifer Lopez and Cameron Diaz in her first big flick.

Pictured looking nervous on the movie set in Atlanta, Georgia, Cheryl was filming scenes for her cameo in the movie, which sees the 28-year-old play a talent show judge, when co-star Cameron auditions for an X Factor like show.

And it looks like Cheryl has been slimming down for her film debut. She showed off her teeny-tiny figure in a tight black Emilio Pucci lace dress and sky-high heels. The singer had flaunted a more curvier figure in recent months but it looks like she's back to business now.

Jessie Wallace Devastated As She Calls Off Her Wedding

It sounds exactly like a soap wedding to me!

Eastenders star Jessie Wallace called off her wedding last minute today after it was revealed that her hubby-to-be Vincent Morse was sending explicit texts to his ex girlfriend.
The 39-year-old pulled the plug on the £300,000 nuptials earlier in the day just four hours before she was supposed to tie the knot with the 50-year-old catering manager.

The actress who plays Kat in Eastenders arrived at her home later today wearing sunglasses and looking distraught.
It looked like all was well with the loved up pair, despite a Sunday paper claiming Vincent was sexting a former lover. In the text messages published he even he tried to lure ex, Karen Short, into bed by sending her an X- rated picture of Jessie.
He also allegedly sent her a message a month ago saying it was over with Wallace. It read: "As of a week ago it’s really been off but I’m only just admitting it to myself."

But everything was fine earlier today when Jessie was seen smiling as deliveries arrived at her four-bedroom house. The mother-of-one already had two broken engagements before she fell for Morse nine months ago.

Jessie had previously said he "has got everything I’ve been looking for".

This is the second scandal to rock the Eastenders set in the last few weeks. Her on-screen hubby Alfie Moon (aka Shane Ritchie) was outed recently for having a long-term affair with his fan page co-ordinator.

Beyonce and Jay-Z Expeting Their First Baby!

She only recently revealed that she thought she would be pregnant at age 30, and just weeks after her birthday Beyonce has revealed she is expecting her first child with hubby Jay-Z.

The superstar revealed the news at last night's MTV Video Music Awards. Arriving on the red carpet in a long flowing orange dress and told press "I have a surprise."
Although she didn't directly say she was preggers she hinted the news to fans in the audience when she said: "I want you to feel the love that is growing inside of me."

The mummy-to-be held on to her growing tummy all night as she smiled for pictures and is expected to officially make a statement today.

It's crazy how big her tummy is getting, I only saw her last month at Oxegen and she was teeny-tiny.

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith Split After 13 Years Of Marriage!

Another failed Hollywood marriage!

Will Smith and Jada-Pinkett Smith have called it quits after being married for 12 years. In a shocking move it seems that the pair have decided to end their marriage, according to In Touch Weekly.

The A-list coupe have two children together - Jaden, 13, and Willow, ten, who have had their fair share of time in the limelight this year. Jaden has appeared in two mega movies, The Pursuit of Happyness and The Karate Kid, and Willow has stormed the charts with her debut album.

This will be the second failed marriage for Smith, who divorced former fashion design student Sheree Zampino in 1995 after three years together. They have a son, Willard Christopher Smith, also known as Trey, who is now 18.

He famously dedicated his 1998 single, Just the Two of Us, to Trey. After his first divorce, Smith found comfort in Jada, whom he had first met in 1990 when she auditioned and was rejected for the role of his girlfriend on his hit TV show, The Fresh Prince.

In 1997, they married in a lavish ceremony at a mansion near her hometown of Baltimore in front 100 friends and family.

I'm sure all this drama won't be helpful for Will who is currently filming Men In Black 3.

The only sign of trouble I can see here is the focus on their kids to start music and acting careers. I found the whole idea bizarre in the first place, but even Jada admitted recently that she has had to put their careers first before hers.

"It was excruciating, completely excruciating. When Jaden was auditioning for The Pursuit of Happyness, my band had just gotten an offer to open for Guns N’ Roses in Europe. For me, that was unbelievable. But the choice was: I could be a rock star, or I could be on the set with my son to make sure he was healthy and happy. We all know how that story ended!"

Jada added she would rather be performing but she knows that her duty is to her children.

"I had to make choices. Believe me, I would still be on the road with my band, Wicked Wisdom, and making as many movies as I can a year, and doing all sorts of other things if I didn't have the responsibility of a family.But I have children with their own talents and dreams, and I know I have to be standing next to them for that journey."

It's definitely not right that she was sacrificing her career for her children, who are way to young to have a career anyway. Is this why their marriage broke down?

Jupe - The Making Up Music Video 'Get Up'

JUPE with model Aoife Hogan

Yes I got the chance to hang out with up and coming Dublin band JUPE this week on the making of their debut music video 'Get Up'.

I can tell you right now that these guys are going to storm the Irish music charts, with their brand new single already getting airplay, a funky style and up beat sound, these guys are definitely the one's to watch.

Standing on the roof-top of The Clarence hotel, the foursome looked so passionate about their music and making it to the top, but they did have a mess about too (rock n roll lifestyle and all that).

Lying on the bed with Dublin model Aoife Hogan, Lead singer Tim Night (26), Lead guitarist Phil Costello (25), Drummer Brendon Reenie (26) and bassist Jonesy (23) posed for a Rolling Stone type cover.

During The Video Shoot

So what are they about? Well Tim tells me that they have no Irish influences at all, and aren't aiming to be the new Script or Snow Patrol, instead their inspirations lie with US bands Maroon 5, and musician John Mayer:

"We actually have no influences in Ireland or the UK, they are all in America." Tim laughed.

And the boys are hoping to break America with their debut single and music video. Lead singer Tim says that they have hired a Grammy award-winning music producer in LA to help them launch their career:

"We've been together about two years and last year we all got together and decided we had to go for it. At this stage we have each put thousands of euro into this of our own money. But right now Bob Cuteralla is over in America pitching our CD to record labels and TV shows. We really hope to get TV placements."

"We used our own money from savings and working. Now we are getting paid for gigs so it's great. But of course we want to break America."

And if Bob's list of clients are anything to go by, these guys should have no problem breaking into the US music charts. He has worked with the likes of Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Eric Clapton, Elton John, Frank Sanatra and Sting.

Hanging out with the guys in The Clarence, drinking beers, playing the guitar and chatting with their video crew it's clear that JUPE have put all their time and effort into making a name for themselves and getting into the charts.

If you want to see them for yourself, the guys will be celebrating the launch of their single 'Get Up' plus their new music video on September 17th at The Academy.

Tickets are flying out the door so make sure to get onto Ticketmaster and book yours.

The Beauty Diary!

This week my task was to find some funky nail designs. I bite my nails everyday so you can only imagine how short my nails are. So I wanted to find someone who could give me innovative designs on fake nails....and I succeeded.

Let me introduce you to THE ALPHA NAIL. Tucked away in the chique Crow Street in Temple Bar. Girls can relax in a funky atmosphere while getting the funkiest nails in town.

Located inside the popular vintage store Siopella, Aoife will treat you to dozens of unique designs, including specialised Cath Kidston Manis, Sparkling Accent Nail, Leopard Print, Poka-Dot, Multicoloured prints, Cherry designs and much much more.

Emma Waldron's Sparkling Accent Nails

Already Alpha Nail is the favourite nail bar of former Miss Ireland Emma Waldron, Ireland's top photographer Lili Forberg, Fade Street star Cici Cavanagh and more celebs are lining up for the stunning designs.

So let me talk you through what the experience is like. First of all I love how The Alpha Nail is tucked away inside Siopaella on Crow Street. The vibe is so relaxing and when you are surrounded by vintage clothes, designer handbags and to die for shoes, how could a girl not be in paradise?

Cici Cavanagh loves their nail designs

I left it up to the lovely Aoife to choose my design and we decided to go for a Cath Kidson Mani with baby blue and soft pink. I wear a lot of blue and pink is my favourite lipstick colour so it was a perfect match.

Surprisingly the whole experience didn't take too long. Make sure to take about a half an hour out for your day if you are getting fake nails but of course it depends on the design you want. But trust me you want to leave.

My Nails!!

So Aoife from The Alpha Nail gave me easy to use glue on nails, which is perfect for me! She started off painting on the nails with the baby blue and the soft pink, and within minutes my new nails were being transformed into a piece of art.


On the baby blue nails she painted on gorgeous tiny flowers using a dark purple, a deep green and white. For the soft pink nails she used a white nail varnish to create a poka-dot design and stripes.

 I love with my new nails!!!

I have to say I had never thought that funky nails would suit me, but I'm in love. It is definitely the newest trend in nails at the moment. I love the Cath Kidston style nails I got but if you would rather have all your nails with the same design you can get leopard prints, crosses or even cherries drawn on your nails.

Like I said there are so many different designs you can ask for, and Aoife is only happy to come up with new ideas and customize the perfect nails for you.

Lili Forberg loves The Alpha Nail

The prices are excellent!! They vary based on the type of design and rather you use your own nails or need fake nails but you will only be paying around €20 which is amazing since the designs are so unique!

I am in love with The Alpha Nail for so many different reasons. As well as the chic surroundings and the lovely chat with Aoife, the quality of the nails and the designs themselves are out of this world.

Now is the time to start focusing your style on your nails. Funky nails can make any outfit pop, it really is the new fashion accessory, and I love it!! As well as their website (see below) you can check out all the designs right here: NAIL ALBUM.

The Cath Kidston Style That I Love!
