Further fanning the flames of Nicole Kidman pregnancy rumors, the Oscar-winning actress has reportedly dropped out of an upcoming film.

Page Six reports that Kidman, who's been denying pregnancy rumors over the last few weeks, has quit her role in Stephen Daldry's drama 'The Reader.' The report claims that because of Kidman's past miscarriages, she's taking extra precautions by dropping out of the film.

The post-WWII drama set in Germany was reportedly set to begin filming this month.

Just before the new year, Kidman shot down pregnancy rumors , with her rep saying: "It is incorrect ... she must have had about 30 babies by now."

A Page Six source begs to differ.

"Of course, everyone knows she's pregnant and lying about it," the insider said.

A pollution-free electric Mini Cooper worth £ ½ million that was lent to JAMES BLUNT has been taken off him again — after he thrashed it to pieces.

The car, one of only two in the world, was developed by NASA and ran on state-of-the-art lithium-ion batteries.

James, who had been driving it since May, said: “There was no petrol, no fumes and was the fastest car I’ve been in — totally silent, like a stealth Mini.”

That was the start of the problem. “I didn’t crash it but I did break it. I was going too fast.”

The car is now going into production and will be on sale from next year.

“I’m sure they’ve learnt a lot from my mistakes!”

He’s the hip-hop mogul who loves to party. Known as the bad boy of the music industry, Diddy proved once again that he doesn’t let anyone mess with him!

Reports reveal that Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs allegedly socked a man twice in the face after partying at a club in New York over the weekend.

His Diddyness was holding court with pals and bodyguards around 3:30 am when he got into an argument with an acquaintance, Steven Acevedo, over a woman.

This is not Diddy's first violent dust-up while out on the town. Last February, he allegedly punched out a man in an argument over a woman at an Oscars afterparty in Holly- wood.

No charges were filed. Most famously, he was acquitted in 2001, back when he was known as Puff Daddy, after a late-night shooting in a Manhattan club.

Brad Pitt and George Clooney may be best friends. But sources reveal, Angelina Jolie isn't too fond of George.

The actress reportedly dislikes George so much she refused to attend the New York premiere of his movie ‘Michael Clayton’ last month.

A source told Life and Style Weekly magazine: “Angie is not particularly close to George, so she didn’t see why she had to be there.

“She asked Brad if he minded going alone, but Brad says it wasn’t really a question. And it was fine with him.”

Angelina, 32, allegedly fears lothario George will lead Brad astray, and distract him from his duties as a father.

The source added: “Angie doesn’t get along with any of Brad's friends. When they are back in Los Angeles she discourages him from going on boys’ nights out.”

Fresh off the rumour mill, there is speculation that Mr and Mrs Smith actress Angelina Jolie has been fired from her position as the face of St John, a clothing company. Angie has been the face of St John since 2005.

It’s crazy to think that someone as famous as Jolie could get canned. Nevertheless, one source
says it was her image that caused the clothier to dump her. “Putting celebrities in campaigns is the biggest trend right now, everyone is doing it, but it didn’t work for St John with Angelina. The people that wear St John just didn’t relate to her.”

Those “people who wear St John” include US Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton and White House staffer Condoleeza Rice.

However, the reps for the fashion label say that no decision has been reached yet.

Meanwhile, Jolie has trouble on another front as well. It has been reported that parents collecting their children from the same New York school as her son Maddox have been asked to respect Jolie and Brad Pitt’s the privacy.

The school has had to issue letters to parents to try to prevent a media frenzy.

According to the New York Observer, the letter said, “Regretfully, I have seen some parents taking pictures, asking for autographs, talking to the media and even shouting at Ms Jolie and Mr Pitt for recognition... I must ask for everyone to please respect the family’s privacy and discontinue these practices.”

Hugh Grant is known as a ladies man and he recently proved so in London when he had a wild night out with several women.

Dailysnack.com reports a source as saying, “Hugh was with at least three different women when he arrived at Boujis nightclub at 2.30 am. And he was certainly in good form.

He didn’t want to be caught on camera so one of the girls tried to cover his face.

“But as soon as he realised he’d been spotted, he turned around and headed back into the taxi. He then went off to private members’ bar Mamalanji until the early hours, where he enjoyed several table dances from women.

“When Hugh finally left at 4 am, he looked seriously sozzled and very much down in the dumps,” the source added.

Actress Jennifer Aniston earned a reputation as a man-eater during her high school years, according to a childhood sweetheart.

The former Friends star (38) is known for her more reserved attitude compared to other Hollywood celebrities, but her ex, Michael Baroni, insists she wasn’t always so bashful.


In author Sean Smith’s forthcoming book, Unauthorised Biography: Jennifer, Baroni says, “She was the leader of the pack with her friends and she’d pursue a guy if she liked him.

George Clooney is so in love with the movie industry he is happy to work for free. The 46-year-old actor is determined not to let money get in the way of the projects he chooses to take on, so he is content to take a cut of the profit.

He says, “Working in films is what excites me. I make movies now for no money. I just take a share of the profits — if any. The important thing is to be proud of the movie. I don’t want to get to my 80s and be a rich actor who regrets the sort of movies I’ve made.”

Meanwhile, sources say, Clooney’s love for girlfriend Sarah Larson has intensified after he had a bike crash with her.

An insider said, “He normally keeps his private life private, but since the crash he has been showing off his girlfriend to the world and they are clearly very much in love.”

Oscar-winning actress Renee Zellweger did a good deed for a stranger by buying shoes for her.

The manager said, “These are compliments of Renee Zellweger. She wanted you to have them.” In the box were the same shoes she had been admiring a few minutes ago.

Michael Jackson has secretly wed his children’s long-serving nanny, according to shocking new US reports.
Despite denials from the pop superstar’s camp, America’s National Enquirer has printed copies of a
new real estate document, in which Jackson states he is married.

And now sources close to the King Of Pop have confirmed Jackson wed 40-year-old Grace Rwaramba in Las Vegas earlier this year.

A source tells the Enquirer, “Grace… is one of his dearest friends. She is one of the few people who stood by his side through all of his problems — including the child molestation trial in 2005.”

If true, this is Jackson’s third marriage. He was previously wed to Debbie Rowe and Lisa Marie Presley.
