Ungrateful mare
Days after Grey's Anatomy's Katherine Heigl proclaimed she was
pulling out of this year's Emmy race
, citing lack of "material" to warrant a nomination, a show insider has hit back with his take on things.
The show snitch tells EW.com: "The show bent over backwards to accommodate her film schedule, and then she criticises the show for lack of material?
"It's an ungrateful slap in the face to the very writers responsible for her Emmy win in the first place."
Over to you, Heigl.
Oh, James...
Several sources have reported that former James Bond star Sean Connery was hospitalised over the weekend after fracturing his ankle.
Connery, 77, reportedly fell and injured his hoof while golfing in upstate New York on Saturday, according to
Star
magazine.
But Connery's spokeswoman Nancy Seltzer denied the accident was as serious as it was made out to be.
Seltzer told
WENN
: "I'm afraid (previous reports are) not correct. Sean Connery has chipped a bone in his shoulder and is in a sling. He tripped while playing golf and is visiting family in New York. He isn't in hospital."
Not for turning
Elton John says he'd still be married to his first love, Renate Blauel, if it weren't for the fact he's gay.
The singer says he still regrets the heartache he caused his ex-wife when they split, and admits that he still loves her "in a certain way."
He also reveals that his German ex was "fantastic" in bed, but it wasn't enough to turn him straight.
He says, "I do love her desperately but it wasn't to be, I was living a lie.
"She would be very happy to be still married to me because she loved me so much... but it wasn't the right decision to make.
"We were two adults (and) we sorted it out ourselves, without the help of lawyers in the end.
"My big regret in the whole thing was having to put her through, like, the whole thing - someone who actually loves you and then having to say goodbye to them. I'm not exactly proud of that."
Shattered myth
Remember all the fuss over Brad Pitt's
weirdo tattoo
a couple of months ago?
Looks like the myth surrounding the tattoo's significance has been shattered.
Wait for it...
The bizarre series of lines on the star's back were based on a scribble his partner Angelina Jolie created.
Jolie tells
Entertainment Weekly
magazine, "We went to Davos... (and) one night we didn't have anything to do, so I was drawing on his back.
"He just liked it! The picture everybody saw was kind of awkward, but it just lines up beautifully on his back, just enhances the part of the body I like.
"I mean, it's meaningful in that it's us making angles and shapes out of each other's body, that kind of a thing."
So there you have it.
No toilet tryst
Bobby Brown's son Landon is now denying that he once got it on with Lindsay Lohan in a lavatory.
Landon was quoted earlier this month saying he'd had a brief
encounter with Lohan
in a club toilet at a private party.
He now tells the
National Enquirer
: "Me and Lindsay got really, really close. She followed me to the bathroom during a private party, and, well, we basically got together."
"This is wild. This is off the wall.
"My father had a concert going on. The club was on the lot. She was on the lot filming something I think. I wasn't dating Lindsay Lohan on the low.
"Nah man, I ain't had sex with Lindsay Lohan. And I ain't tell him (sic) I had sex with Lindsay Lohan either. Word is bond, if I slept with Lindsay Lohan, I would still be sleeping with Lindsay Lohan right now."
Malting Moss
Pouty clotheshorse Kate Moss experienced a hair-malfunction while she trotted the red carpet in Germany last week.
One of her precious hair extensions
hit the deck
.
A sticky-fingered paparazzo was on hand to swipe the mane of hair, and quickly rounded up his lens lizard mates to snap the specimen.
In the Dogg house
Rapper Snoop Dogg's wife has been a naughty girl - she
was arrested
on suspicion of DUI on Saturday.
We care because?
Oh, Mariah
Despite Mariah Carey signaling to all and sundry that she was planning a second wedding to hubby Nick Cannon, the plans have now been vetoed.
Carey was reportedly all set to put on a lavish ceremony, with dozens of bridesmaids and miles of tacky taffeta, but there was a minor problem - nobody cared.
A source says: "Mariah was willing to pay for the wedding, but the way she hoped to pay for the wedding was through the sale of photos. No one was interested."

Now that's humiliating
Thinking of attending one of Kanye West's concerts and throwing something other than your adulation at him? Well don't. He'll throw a hissy fit and make you feel like you're in league with Satan.
One overzealous fan tried it, and the consequences were, well, painful...
