Stories about Event

Heather Mills sure knows how to stay busy (and newsworthy). Here she is sporting a shorter, blonder hairstyle at the opening of her new eatery V-Bites in Hove, England.

Naturally, V-Bites is all vegan food and something that Heather is extremely passionate about. 

If you are vegan, you should check out her website as it is packed with great information!

Remember all that drama with Oprah and James Frey? I bought into it. I cried with him while watching her show on his book, 'A Million Little Pieces' and then watched him squirm through the retraction.

Fast forward a few years and here we all are. 

'Transformers' director Michael Bay and DreamWorks just bought the rights for James' newest sci-fi adventure, 'I Am Number 4'.The book is the first of 6 James has planned for this new series. 

How much did James earn? The Hollywood Reporter is saying "high six figures".

The book's storyline involves alien teens assimilating into an Earth high school after their home planet is destroyed by an enemy species. And wouldn't you just know, the bad aliens track the good E.T.s right back here to terra firma

Sounds like a money maker... for everyone involved. Wonder if Oprah approves? :)

Shia LaBeouf found the long hours spent filming 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen' exhausting. The 22-year-old actor - who stars alongside Megan Fox in the blockbuster - was forced to work 28-hour shifts to get the movie finished on time. He is quoted as saying:

"I don't even know how to describe that level of exhaustion. When you become jaded and not bothered by a car flipping over your head because you have been doing a 28-hour day, then you know you must be tired."

Last week, movie director Michael Bay revealed he almost cancelled the movie when Shia injured his hand in a car accident midway through filming. He said:

"I actually read it on CNN online and was like, 'This can't be true.' I called my line producer, Ian Bryce, and he said, 'It's true, let's shut down,' and I said, 'We can't shut down!' "When you've got a train going, it's so expensive to shut a picture like this down. I was glad we had an action scene in the library, that day we were shooting. I said, 'Let's just go for it. Let's just not stop. Let's use his stuntman, and we'll try to cover as much stuff as we can.' "We were very lucky because we had shot a lot of the beginning of the movie and we were right at a turning point."

I finally got around to seeing this movie and loved it! Did anyone else get a chance yet? What did you think? I heard hot and cold reviews, but I quite enjoyed it.

Wow! An island!

David Beckham has rented a private island to celebrate his tenth wedding anniversary with wife Victoria. The soccer star wants to show the former Spice Girl how much he still loves her so has organized this romantic getaway at Richard Branson's exclusive Necker Island - one of the world's most luxurious resorts.

"David has pulled in a few favors. He has bought Victoria a lot of other gifts to mark the occasion but the big surprise is the holiday to Necker. "Richard Branson owns the paradise island and sorted the trip out, including all the travel arrangements. It will be something to remember."

It's nice to have friends in high places. :)

The couple - who have three sons together, Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, six, and four-year-old Cruz - married at Dublin's Luttrellstown Castle on July 4 1999. David recently revealed he would love to have another baby with Victoria and is desperate for a daughter.

"I really want more kids and I hope it happens soon. I want a little girl. That would be amazing."

It's really hard to hope for a specific gender. After three boys, I'm not so sure I would go again.  I know plenty of friends who all have 2-3-4 boys and have given up the quest. If it's not meant to be... Lucky for the Beckhams, they can hire help and have a dozen kids if they'd like!

Tributes to Michael Jackson dominated the BET Awards last night. Joe Jackson - the father of the 50-year-old pop legend, was one of the first to pay homage to his son, speaking about him on the red carpet at Los Angeles' Shrine Auditorium.

"I wish the world had recognized him when he was living. Right now, he's bigger than ever. But I wish he was here to see all this, to hear all this."

Janet Jackson also made an appearance, and thanked Michael's fans for all their support in the wake of his passing. 

"My entire family wanted to be here tonight, but it was just too painful so they elected me to speak with all of you. "I would just like to say that to you, Michael is an icon. To us, Michael is family, and he will forever live in all of our hearts. "On behalf of my family and myself, thank you for all your love - thank you for all your support. We miss him so much."

Jamie Fox hosted the show, and entered wearing a red leather jacket in a nod to Michael's costume in the music promo for 'Beat It'. After the event opened to a medley of Jackson 5 songs - including 'ABC' and 'The Love You Save' - Jamie walked onto the stage to 'Beat It'. He said:

"No need to be sad. We want to celebrate this black man. We are going to go through all of Michael Jackson."

The singer-and-actor also performed Michael's signature dance move the moonwalk and performed the Jackson 5 hit 'I'll Be There' alongside Stevie Wonder and Ne-Yo as images of the late King of Pop flashed up on a big screen.

Sounds like a fun night out!!

Russell Crowe serenaded staff at a Welsh pub before leaving them over $900 for a tip. The 45-year-old actor - who is in Wales filming his latest movie 'Robin Hood' - surprised locals when he took nine friends for a meal at the Carew Inn, near Tenby, last week. The party ate mussels and a Jamie Oliver-inspired chicken dish before belting out Bryan Adams' 'Summer of '69' and Peter, Paul and Mary's 'Leaving On A Jet Plane'.

Where is the video?????????????????????????

When he had finished singing, Russell paid the $340 bill and returned to his trailer on the movie set, leaving a wad of bills on his table. A member of staff said:

"Now if anyone badmouths him I tell them to shut up. He could have paid and just left but they stayed instead and entertained us. "Then he paid us that tip - it's the last thing you expect. He seemed quite friendly and chatty like a really nice guy, and he had a great singing voice."

Another staff member added:

"It was surreal. When they first got here they sat in the garden but people started trying to sneak around and take pictures of them so they moved inside. Two of them were some kind of bodyguards because they were walking around constantly, it was quite intimidating.

"But later he came into the kitchen and gave us all his autograph and we had a quick chat. Then he gave my boss the tip and they left. We were like, 'Did that just happen?' "

What a wonderful experience for everyone to have! I just LOVE hearing these stories.

Kim Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian were alongside Khloe Kardashian as she celebrated her 25th birthday at Pure Nightclub inside Caesars Palace in Las Vegas last night.

25?

That's it? I feel like these girls are so much older than that. Khloe already owns several stores and a clothing line - talk about being productive! 

Check out Kim's eye make up in the thumbnails! What do you think? Something you will try out this summer?

Who cares if he has some anger issues? Over 50% of women polled over at MSN's Wonderwall agreed that Christian Bale is hotter than hot. The 'Terminator Salvation' actor beat out Robert Pattinson and Chris Pine as the celebrity with whom women would most want to have a summer fling.

• Rob Pattinson received only 21 percent of the female vote as this summer's most desired celebrity fling.
• Chris Pine received a mere 14 percent.

There were other polls to highlight as well:

• 44 percent of male respondents (ages 18-64) say they would want to have a summer fling with Megan Fox. Carrie Underwood is close behind with 38 percent.
• Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake have the hottest beach bodies (44% of the vote).
• 92 percent of respondents said they would not want to see Heidi and Spencer Pratt, strut their stuff on the beach this summer.

That's funny! Who would you want to disappear for the summer??? And if you had a choice - who would be your summer fling?

Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, and Marion Cotillard were joined by several of their celebrity friends to mark the premiere of their newest movie, 'Public Enemies'.

Stars like Rosario Dawson, Stephen Dorf, Leelee Sobieski and Giovanni Ribisi spent the night smiling for photographers as well.

Now that this movie is available to the public, are you planning on seeing it?

And what do you think about Johnny's glasses?
