Superstar Couples

Rod Stewart’s wild daughter, Kimberly, is romancing the Kings of Leon frontman, Caleb Followill. The two were caught passionately kissing at London’s Kabaret club.
According to Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper: “They were getting stuck into drinks on a private table and Kim was all over him like a rash.”
The 27-year-old model and the 25-year-old singer continued canoodling after they left the club.
The paper’s source added: “Once they got back to the suite, the alcohol came out again. But all Kimberly and Caleb were interested was one another and spent most of the night making out to everyone’s embarrassment.
Former singer Natalie Imbruglia was one of the partyers. The two were caught going back to fellow reveller Natalie’s suite at The Dorchester hotel. “Natalie knows all the Kings of Leon really well and she was delighted when they hit it off.”
Kimberly is in London to shoot the new campaign for fashion line Pinko. While Caleb’s band tops the UK album charts with a new album “Because of the Times.”
For a taste of what Kings of Leon has to offer, here’s the band’s famous single, “The Bucket.”

Before Pete Doherty and Kate Moss’ heady relationship that we hear today, there was the circuslike tandem of Kurt Cobain-Courtney Love in the ’90s, the proclaimed grunge royals. Until Kurt chose to end himself in April 1994.
If Kurt were still alive he would have turned 40 in February.
A propos, if you haven’t seen Gus van Sant’s “Last Days,” a film that is loosely based on Kurt Cobain’s final days starring Michael Pitt, I’d suggest you do watch it right away. The whole movie might be slow but it has its moments. I especially like the scenes where Michael’s Blake fiddled on his guitar, Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth showed up as his concerned manager and the camera focusing on the house as it faded out while the guitar echoed in the background.
Anyway, 13 years have passed and he still still stirs Courtney’s emotions. True love? Opportunism?
His widow is on the cover of Wiener, a Viennese men’s magazine, for this month’s issue.
In the interview she discussed her stripteasing days, how did she end up in Japan and after a while in Oregon, her estranged parents, her rollercoaster life, her daughter Frances Bean, her latest works and rehabilitation. A fourth of the articles is dedicated to her lovelife, mostly Kurt and Edward Norton. She briefly talked about the falling out between her and Kurt’s family.
It must be your usual Courtney interview as she dragged the famous names of her erstwhile lovers but whatever you think of her personality you really cannot erase the fact that she was the last companion of the gifted singer and later Edward’s one-time fiancee.
She mentioned that she is prone to be addicted to love than to drugs.
When she was asked if she and Kurt became dependent on each other too much? Courtney replied, “Absolutely. I was never the one who said ‘C’mon let’s take drugs.’ I had to take care of him. He had a terrible stomach problems and horrible pains. But no one wanted to believe him. We went to the best doctors. He had an endoscopy after the other. I found him vomitting on the flooor. I always had an adrenalin kit with that I injected directly to his heart. I was all alone with all of it… I really loved him. He (referring to Kurt) was my best friend. I missed him so much. If he would have let himself be diagnosed, he could have a great time.”
And then her regrets of leaving Edward: “I should have married Edward. I left him for a man who stole all my money. Yes, I left Ed, who is a wonderful and good man, for completely average bad types, who worked as an A&R at Geffen Records. It is so annoying but I am working on my men-karma.”
In the end she was thankful that she has got a second chance to enjoy her new life including her daughter, who is unlike her.

The pretty 30-year-old Colombian singer-songwriter Shakira, whose real name Shakira Isabel Mebarak Rippoll, is having a a ball right now.
Not only she is is successful with her career having released her second English-language album, “Oral Fixation Vol. 2” in 2005 and doing a series of world tour, but she enjoys the companionship of her fiance, Antonio de la Rua, to the delight of her future father-in-law, the deposed president of Argentina, Fernando de la Rua who said a year (ago of the prospective daughter-in-law: “They prefer to wait. Kids today would rather live as a couple, they don’t believe that marriage is necessary to be happy. Shakira is a very good woman, she is very loving to her parents and with her in-laws as well.”
Shakira and Antonio, a lawyer and a paparazzi-magnet even before he was committed to the singer due to his chaotic life and women, began dating in 1999 and have been engaged since March 2001.

Some photos taken from her Portugal (Pavilhao Atlantico, April 4) and Germany (Cologne, April 8 ) concerts.

How many stories in Hollywood where we heard the directors found their loves in their actors? Lots of.
The latest actress who will join the long list of directors who fall in love with their actors is Rose McGowan and Robert Rodriguez.
The two went completely all the way when filming “Grindhouse.” Robert Rodriguez allegedly left his wife of 17 years Elizabeth Avellan after the latter discovered Rose and Robert were having an affair.
While on the set one source told New York Post’s Page Six that “it was the worst-kept secret on the set. They were going off to his trailer, having meals together. Rose thought some of the crew were treating her differently, and the attitude was, like, well what do you expect when you’re [bleeping] the director?”
Naturally when Elizabeth, who co-produced all of Robert’s films including the latest flick, which is said to be a homage to sex and violence films of the 1970s, went ballistic. “There was an eruption of emotions–an emotional volcano.” So far, while Rose and Robert kept a low-profile on their romance, he and Elizabeth separated amicably out of love for their children.

Before Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton fell in love on the set of “Planet of the Apes,” the British actress had a long-term relationship with Kenneth Branagh. Tim once was married to a German artist, Lena Gieseke but was divorced shortly after “Batman Returns.”
Since 2001 Helena hasn’t stopped appearing in all of his movies. The two had a son Billy Ray, who was born in 2003.
According to Helena, she suspected that the director might have suffered by a form of autism.
“Tim will kill me, but while making this drama (a TV movie in which she played a mother of autistic children), I realized he actually has a bit off Asperger’s in him. You start recognizing the signs”, she said.
“They (autistic people) have application and dedication. You can say something to Tim when he’s working and he doesn’t hear you”, the actress added. “But that quality also makes him a fantastic father; he has an amazing sense of humor and imagination. He sees things other people don’t see. Billy is enchanted by him.”

Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes–Despite rumours that Kate was in love with an Australian man, she married Sam in Anguilla in the Carribean in 2004. The two met about five months after Kate got divorced with husband and director Jim Threapleton. They have a daughter Mia Honey. The press blamed Sam for the divorce and quickly jumped to the conclusion that the two had an affair. “Obviously we didn’t, but the tabloids claimed that I was swanning around, going to premieres left and right, and that I didn’t even live with my daughter.”
According to Kate, former husband Jim was not supportive of her career. “Jim didn’t want me to be famous. He would read a script and immediately kill my passion for it by saying it wasn’t good enough for me. That was the only time that I’ve ever lost control of my instincts,” the actress was quoted saying.
Sam and Kate have a son, Joe Alfie. The family divides time between New York City and Cotswolds, England.

Milla Jovovich and Paul W.S. Anderson–Milla is an actress, singer, model and even a fashion designer. She might not have the films that will catapult her to the A-list, heavy set of Hollywood actressesbut she is sure to be a talented person. The “Resident Evil” star fell in love with her director Paul while filming the movie in 2002. The two were spotted lately in West Hollywood.

Former lovebirds Jude Law and Sienna Miller have reportedly exchanging hate messages through mutual friends.
Jude reportedly told pals that Sienna was “dull, fake and boring” while she countered by calling him “fat, egotistical and juvenile.” Not only they mocked each other’s personality, Sienna even criticised Jude’s choice of women. He was previously being linked to various Hollywood actresses such as Lindsay Lohan and Natalie Portman.
Jude was even not at all friendly towards Sienna’s new boyfriend Jamie Burke.
According to a mutual friend of the pair: “After splitting up, Jude and Sienna said they would try to remain friends. But this simply hasn’t happened.”
“They are both angry and bitter. They just keep on trading vicious insults, and keep fighting back and forth.”
Sienna, who is shocked getting praises for her figure, broke off the seven-month engagement to Jude in July 2005 but reconciled after Jude publicly apologised for his behaviour when he cheated on Sienna with the actors’ former nanny. They finally went their separate ways in November last year. The two met while filming “Alfie” in 2004.

It is true that it takes time and effort to make a relationship work. It is also true that it doesn’t depend on only one person but the task of both lovers to stay in love. Hence, in order to make it last for a lifetime, one has to compromise, compromise and compromise.
In Hollywood we see the film stars swap their partners as easy as changing one’s underwear.
Over the week we found out that the following actresses have eventually have gotten tired of their boyfriends, or their partners have lost their lovin’ feeling.

No wonder the pretty German actress was plainly lackluster when talking about ex-American boyfriend, Joshua Jackson of “Dawson’s Creek” fame. She hinted to Gala interview last February that she wasn’t in a hurry to form a family with him. One week after Joshua dumped her, the 30-year-old actress was seen getting cosy with Anjelica Huston’s nephew, Jack Huston, whose recent work was “Factory Girl” and is currently filming “Outlander” with James Caviezel. Diane and Joshua were a pair for a year. Imagine!
Well, compared to Kirsten Dunst and her British rocker Johnny Borrell who only lasted for a what, uhh, month? Johnny might have gotten to his senses and suddenly realised that his longtime ex-girlfriend, Fabiola Gatti, is the one. No offence to Kiki, but she might be his playground love, you know. His band just released their next album and he was perhaps testing the “celebrity” waters.
A source told News of the World: “Johnny and Kirsten had a very passionate romance—they were completely blown away by each other at first. They spent all their time together. Kirsten even made herself at home in Johnny’s London pad.”
It seemed that moving in with the musician and spending intercontinental trips to be with the guy did more harm than good to Kiki. The actress was seen lately in LA.

Live, a weekender supplementary of the tabloid Heute one gets free at the Viennese tube, was taken of Leonardo DiCaprio’s plan to wed his girlfriend, the Israeli model Bar Refaeli.
The magazines all over the world reported that they might take the plunge in June this year.
The proposal allegedly took place in Israel when the two were there for a visit meeting Bar’s parents. Leonardo also got to see the Wailing Wall and met some important people.
A source close to Leo denied the rumours, “just because you see the parents doesn’t mean there is an engagement.”
Though the article mentioned more about his serious engagement to save the world, his political acquaintance to such luminaries like Al Gore and Mikhail Gorbatschev. His affair with Bar brought a little negativity on his part. Before the two reached their half year, news of the pair’s breakup was scattered round the town bringing speculations that the two would never make it due to a translatlantic relationship. Leo and Bar get to cmmunicate through their mobiles and once in a while meetings. Leo is said to send the model cool messages.
The story also focused on his womanising attitude and his supposed penchant for models, earning him the title “modelizer. A term that we first heard from one of the episodes of “Sex and the City.”
So here is our Leonardo DiCaprio with his stunning girlfriend caught up between his dedication to help the environment and his career. Not to mention his wild nights with friends like Tobey Maguire and a string of women he might have a relationship with, including Kate Winslet and Liv Tyler.
Several gossip magazines talked about Bar’s physical resemblance with Gisele Bündchen. They are both blonde, sexy and tall. Most of all, they are both models. This seems to be the set of cards one has to have in order be the future Mrs. DiCaprio, the story wrote.
A week after the marriage buzz, he was featured side the side with Knut, a four-month old baby bear from Berlin Zoo, emphasising his environmental commitment.
Exactly how did the two first meet?

Yet another Pete-Kate story.
For the love of Kate, Pete D. is planning to get his penis pierced.
The lead singer of Babyshambles rocker has booked an appointment at North London’s Camden Cold Steel parlour to surprise his supermodel lover with the intimate piercing.
Britain’s Daily Star newspaper’s sources said that Pete has been thinking about it for a while. The rocker sensed that while his model girlfriend is away working on her fashion line, he can surprise her with it when she returns.
“He is so excited and has managed to keep it a secret from Kate so far. He’s gone for the most painful 14 mm hole because he wants to wear large pieces of jewellery,” said the source.
Kate is in Devon brainstorming ideas for her new collection with high street retailers Topshop.
The singer already surprised Kate with a tattoo of a letter K inside a heart on his arm.
Oh well, at least Pete is on the safe side. It is only one letter etched on his skin. It wouldn’t pose any problem to hide it unless he would have another girlfriend whose name starts with K.
But a pierced penis? As long as it satisfies his lover. Ouch.

Whitney Houston might never sing “I Will Always Love You” to Bobby Brown but at least she would have a good night sleep after the judge approved their divorce. It is set to be finalised on April 24.
Judge Franz Miller also awarded the erstwhile Grammy winner the custody of their daughter, the 14-year-old Bobbi Christina.
Whitney turned emotional while listening to the proceedings. She was caught dabbing her eyes with a tissue during the hearing and declined to comment as she left the courthouse. It wasn’t known if Whitney’s shedding of tears was pure joy or sadness and pity over the 15 years she and Bobby were together.
Bobby’s lawyer said they will file a petition to overturn the judge’s decision.
On September 8 last year the singer filed for legal separation from Bobby and then followed with a divorce request in October. And then in December she requested to fast-track the dissolution of the marriage.
Whitney and Bobby married in 1992 when Whitney was at the height of her success. But troubles started to appear as Bobby was arrested for drugs and alcohol-related charges. While Whitney has twice entered rehab to be treated for addiction to cocaine. There were instances of cheating in between. Bobby allegedly impregnated one of his paramours, a porn actress.
Since their separation Whitney has been reportedly recording a new album with J Records president Clive Davis in Los Angeles. Despite their split, Whitney and Bobby have been seen together on several occasions dining with their daughter fuelling speculations that the two might get back together. And now the answer is surely no.

For obvious reasons, most of the new celebrity couples don’t want the public to know that they are really dating. So they try to hard to deny and hide from the mighty paparazzi’s cameras. But often, it doesn’t work as the truth always comes out anyway.
Take for instance, Owen Wilson and Kate Hudson. Finally the two are ready to admit that they are having an affair. Thanks to Owen’s brother Luke who dished out what’s really behind their closeness for months after the two started to work together and Kate eventually dumping former husband Chris Robinson.
People calls it playing cool.
Owen’s brother told the rag about his brother’s choice, “He seems very happy and “[Kate] is a very nice girl.”
After several denials and instances of hiding from the public 27-year-old Kate and Owen, 38, are openly enjoying each other’s company recently. In Australia this year where Kate was working on the movie “Fool’s Gold,” the pair shared bike rides and walks on the beach.

Last Friday, the previously low-profile pair were anything but shy over lunch at Santa Monica’s Ivy at the Shore restaurant.
“From the second they walked in, they were all over each other,” says a witness. “Kate even [sat] on his lap to give him kisses.”

Status: Somewhat confirmed

And then there’s Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon. Apparently, their closeness since working together on the set of “Rendition” is sending a few people to ecstasy. Like this girl who allegedly saw the two together and “tipped” both Perez Hilton and Flynet .

I was eating dinner with a girlfriend at a restaurant called The Clay Pit in Brentwood on Friday night (March 30). I was sitting close to the front and I saw a Toyota Camry pull up outside driven by a male and he dropped off a female into the restaurant. Then to my surprise, in comes little Reese Witherspon looking totally cute.
She picked up some food for takeout and while she was doing that, I stared at the person in the Camry. I recognized instantly that it was Jake Gyllenhal! When she came back out to the car, he got out and opened the door for her and was shielding his face so that no one would see him but it was definitely him!!! I couldn’t believe it! I knew you said that they were dating but now I know for sure that they are!!!! Yipee!!!

People, on the other hand, mentioned that that they were spotted on March 23 dining with two other couples at Los Angeles’ Il Sole.

“They were cuddling,” an observer tells Peple in its new issue. “It looked very playful.”

Sources close to Jake confirmed that he is into kids and prefers a homebody lifestyle. Reese as a family woman is square when it comes to night-outs unlike the actor’s ex-girlfriend Kirsten Dunst, who doesn’t have any problem partying up all night. The young actress is presently enjoying Razorlight’s Johnny Borrell’s company.
If that’s true then he woudn’t mind Reese having two children from her previous marriage. His new role as an uncle might be a good reason to hang out with Ava and Deacon.

Status: Not yet totally absolutely confirmed

Sadie Frost is used to be one of Dracula’s brides. She is also Jude Law’s ex-wife.
But I didn’t know that she likes to haunt for men almost half her age. Remember their War of the Roses phase years back?
According to Jude’s sister Natasha she attested that the two stayed friends. And perhaps, comparing notes and advising each other how to attract and flirt around younger people. Like her former husband who is known to favour young women, the ex-missus is having dalliances with men who could be be her own sons.
Page Six wrote that she’s been seen around town lately with baby-faced musician Kristian Marr, “who at 23 is young enough to be her son.”
Aside from Kristian, Sadie’s long list of men since her divorce in 2003 included flamenco guitarist Jackson Scott, 25; actor Andy Jones, 25; stand-up comic Alex Zane, 27; and rocker Tom Atkin, 21.
Speaking of Jude, the British actor reportedly even shagged Courtney Love’s yoga teacher. So much for action, huh?

Dependence. That’s what I call the love affair between Pete Doherty and Kate Moss. They are like parasites clinging to each other. And now the two would like the share their love via a video documentary.
The Sun revealed that Pete is now keen on documenting footages of his life with the supermodel on a camcorder to turn it into an arty documentary. Yes, you have heard it right. It should be artistic and fuzzy and chaotic.
One source of the British rag commented, “They think it’s cool and romantic, like something John Lennon and Yoko Ono would have done. But in reality it’s all rather embarrassing and far more Jordan and Peter Andre.”
On Monday night Pete posted a clip of him serenading Kate on his website. Soon it made its way round the internet. In one three-minute clip, Kate is seen wearing only a pair of panties under a see-through dress while Pete strums a guitar. After inhaling a cigarette, Kate teases Pete: “Rot in jail you c***. Rot, rot, rot, rot, rot, rot.”
She then says: “We are no Sonny and Cher.” Pete can be heard serenading his love with a song about an oak tree.
Kate responds by shouting: “What oak tree? You are a liar, and a fantasist.”

The Sun mentioned that as Pete strums away on his guitar at Kate’s Cotswold home, Kate comes across as a childish attention-seeker.
One can hear Kate’s “Lalalala” singing in the background, which sounds “sweet” yet immature and naughty at the same time, as she kicks him and tries to hog the camera — “eventually calling him “f***face” and a “liar.”
Pete just sold his journals that contain his poems, diaries and artwork to Orion for a reported six-figure sum.
And now, Pete’s latest obssession: video diary. How much could it be?

The real blonde Anna Faris is known for her “Scary Movie” films, but I fondly recall her on the movie “Lost in Translation” as the self-absorbed Hollywood actress Kelly. She was supposed to be impersonating Cameron Diaz. Director Sofia Coppola apparently didn’t like the actress so much that she gave a spin on her character putting her in a comic yet embarrassing light. It worked and the audience loved it.
Anna has filed for divorce from her husband of almost three years, actor Ben Indra. The actress is citing irreconcilable differences in legal papers. The couple wed in June 2004 after a 12-month engagement. They started dating in 1999 after meeting on the set of horror film Lovers’ Lane.

I just like rumours, dont you?
Oh well, when you are sick and ailing you would just want to be entertained…
The world of rock ‘n’ roll has always been a breeding ground for a circus-like yet fairytale life. Most of the rockers don’t have any differece with their brothers and sisters in Hollywood.
Yesterday, Rolling Stone just unveiled their 25 Best Rock Rumours of all time. One of them is that Angela Bowie caught her former husband David on bed with Mick Jagger. I remember when this controversy came out fuelling heaps upon heaps of articles, ready speculations, on the much talked about sexual orientation of David Bowie.
So exactly when did it start?
According to Snopes, the story could be an “urband legend sort-of”.

This was the fare cooked up on “The Joan Rivers Show” on 4 May 1990, when Angela Bowie took advantage of the recent TVC 15 expiration of a ten-year gag order — which had been imposed as a condition of the divorce agreement that ended her 1970-80 marriage to rock star David Bowie — to spill some dirt on her famous ex-husband.
In a nutshell, what happened was that Rivers promised her audience that her guest was “ready to dish — and I mean down and dirty dishing — about her ex.” Angela Bowie reportedly got cold feet and maintained that she didn’t like “kissing and telling,” whereupon she was “led off camera and subjected to some scornful denunciation of her cowardice from Rivers and another guest, shock-humor radio personality Howard Stern.”
After rethinking her position, Angela returned to the set and discussed her stormy marriage to rock’s “Thin White Duke,” claiming: “I caught him in bed with men several times. In fact the best time I caught him in bed was with Mick Jagger” (when she walked into her bedroom after returning from a trip). When Howard Stern prodded her by asking if the two men had their clothes off, she answered, “They certainly did.”

Mick Jagger completely declared that it was “rubbish.” David, in turn, didn’t quite understand the fuss was all about. When asked by a fan if Mick was a good kisser, he said “You’d have to ask someone else, not me.” He also mentioned that proclaiming his bisexuality isn’t a problem in Europe but in America. “Interesting. [Long pause] I don’t think it was a mistake in Europe, but it was a lot tougher in America. I had no problem with people knowing I was bisexual. But I had no inclination to hold any banners or be a representative of any group of people. I knew what I wanted to be, which was a songwriter and a performer, and I felt that [bisexuality] became my headline over here for so long. America is a very puritanical place, and I think it stood in the way of so much I wanted to do.”
Angela, meanwhile, is bisexual. She is a staunch supporter of bisexuality wherein she writes numerous articles about the subject and represents the sector.
In fact, this rumour made another appearance when the film “Velvet Goldmine” came out in 1998. David disliked the script that he didn’t let director Todd Haynes to use his songs. The film is loosely based on his persona in the 70s, the start of glam, before, during and after he was Ziggy Stardust. In the script, the character portrayed by Toni Collette, Mandy Slade, was patterned after Angela.
The rumour was reconstructed in one of the scenes when Mandy caught her husband Brian Slade (played by Jonathan Rhys Meyers) sleeping naked beside Curt Wild (Ewan McGregor), a promiscuous drug-addled musician with shades of Mick Jagger, Marc Bolan and Iggy Pop in his soul.
The former Mrs. Bowie and David were considered to be rock royals in their heyday until their amicable split in 1980. Aside from her colourful past, she has a website giving advice about bisexuality.
David, who is known for metamorphosing and innovating his music style, is now still married with Iman Abdulmajid, a supermodel, successful businesswoman and very much involved with charity work. Though working in the background, the couple is considered to be one of the upper echelons of the celebrity power couples.

Dave Navarro, freshly divorced from Carmen Electra, has found himself a new girlfriend.
It seems that he and Kelly Carlson, who played Kimber Henry as the nymph of Dr. Christian Troy (played by Julian McMahon) on “Nip/Tuck,” are becoming more than friendly to one another. The two were spotted in West Hollywood, California. They were rumoured having a stop off at Cartier where Dave checked out some new watches.
