Another Day, Another Kim Kardashian Sex Tape Scandal
Another Day, Another Kim Kardashian Sex Tape Scandal
Kim Kardashian is at the centre of a sex tape scandal following claims made by convicted fraudster, Jonathan Lee Riches, who has filed 2,600 lawsuits since 2006, that he appeared in a sex tape with the star.
In documents obtained by Radar Online, Jonathan also alleged that he lost his virginity to Kim during a trip to Armenia. It is thought that Jonathan put forward the claims because he wanted to be added as a plaintiff to her case against clothing Giant GAP and The Old Navy.
Jonathan said: “I have been in an intimate relationship with Kim Kardashian since 2001. I lost my virginity to Kim Kardashian on a Virgin Air Flight en route to the Armenian Hilton Hotel.”
In an even more bizarre claim, Jonathan blames Kim for his fraud conviction, adding:m“I spent 125 months in federal prison for credit card fraud and identity theft and Kim Kardashian forced me to do fraud crimes to finance her lavish lifestyle and bankroll her career…”
Alledging to have evidence of his sex tape with Kim, Jonathan added: “I borrowed Ray J’s camcorder and me and Kim Kardashian made 2 sex tapes with her in Gap clothing. I have those 2 tapes and all the photographs secretly saved at a YMCA gym locker in Philadelphia to show as evidence.”
The convicted fraudster also put forward the claim that his life is in danger by saying that Kim has threatened him.
“Kardashian is now threatening my life since I got released from prison on 4/30/12, telling me if I expose our relationship that she is going to get her sister Khloé’s husband, Lamar Odom’s basketball buddies to come hunt me down and stuff basketballs in my throat to shut me up.
“Im so scared, I’m whistleblowing now, because Kim Kardashian should of went to prison for my crimes, I did it all for her.”
Luckily for Kim, the claims made by Jonathan were denied by the judge. There is also no evidence to suggest that Jonathan and Kim had ever met.
Anne Hathaway Agrees With Chistopher Nolan’s Ploys To Keep Batman: The Dark Knight Rises Top Secret
Anne Hathaway Agrees With Chistopher Nolan’s Ploys To Keep Batman: The Dark Knight Rises Top Secret
Anne Hathaway has revealed that she approves of director Christopher Nolan’s unusual ploys to keep the new Batman script a secret, insisting fans will have “so much more fun” not knowing any spoilers about the blockbuster.
Nolan went to extreme lengths to ensure the castmembers - including Christian Bale and Tom Hardy - were kept in the dark about the ending of The Dark Knight Rises, and even sent out scripts with pages missing.
The Love and Other Drugs star was closely monitored as she read scenes for her role as Catwoman, but she is adamant Nolan has the right idea about secrecy.
She tells The Sun, “I had to read the script in a locked room - OK, maybe the room wasn’t locked, I could be adding that for dramatic effect. But you know what I mean.
“I read it through once really fast and I went back and read over all of my scenes and tried to memorise them as much as I could instantly. It was cool. You could call Chris and ask, ‘What is this scene about again?’
“When I screen-tested I took the sides home and it was really awkward, because the producer had to hunt me down to get them back so they could be destroyed.”
She adds: “This should be treated with a certain amount of secrecy, which is great, because I think it is so much more fun to discover it in the movie theatre when there is so much anticipation about the movie.”
Prometheus Receives Mixed Reviews
Prometheus Receives Mixed Reviews
Ridley Scott’s new movie, Prometheus, has been receiving some mixed reviews.
Ridley Scott’s highly anticipated Prometheus received its premiere and press screenings yesterday, and the reviews for the film have been a little mixed, although generally positive.
There have been no outright slatings of Scott’s return to the world he created in Alien, but not everyone has been completely impressed or satisfied by the new movie.
The Guardian’s Peter Bradshaw said, “Ridley Scott has counter-evolved his 1979 classic Alien into something more grandiose, more elaborate – but less interesting. In place of scariness there is wonderment; in place of tension there is hugely ambitious design; in place of unforgettable shocks there are reminders of the original’s unforgettable shocks. There are also some shrewd and witty touches, and one terrifically creepy performance from Michael Fassbender, who steals the film with the chilling, parasitic relentlessness of that first gut-bound alien.”
The Hollywood Reporter had Todd McCarthy calling it, “A visual feast of a sci-fi movie… Technically, Prometheus is magnificent. Shot in 3D but without the director taking the process into account in his conceptions or execution, the film absorbs and uses the process seamlessly…”
The Daily Telegraph’s Robbie Collin summed up his opinion on Twitter, posting, “Prometheus is, um, absolutely nuts. Not perfect by a stretch but there are ideas here you wouldn’t expect a studio to touch with a 10ft pole.”
The movie also stars The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo actress Noomi Rapace, Charlize Theron, and Guy Pearce.
Rising Star Elsie’s New Single ‘London Town’ Soon To Be Released
Rising Star Elsie’s New Single ‘London Town’ Soon To Be Released
Elsie is one of the hottest new talents we’ve seen in a while, and since speaking with her back in October 2011, she has shot a video for her new single, London Town, which is released July 23rd.
Elsie’s new single ‘London Town’ is backed by a hilarious interactive Youtube video which takes a cheeky swipe at our obsession with celebrity culture. Everyone from Nicki Minaj to Paris Hilton, via Kim Kardashian and Amy Childs gets a nod of the head, as Elsie pokes fun at some of the biggest names in showbusiness.
You can watch Elsie’s new video here.
The track is refreshingly catchy, with the main mix featuring the brass riff from the classic track ‘Message To You Rudy’ over bouncing beats and a huge bass line. The perfect soundtrack to the long heady days of summer. ‘London Town’ picks up where Lilly Allen’s LDN left off as an anthemic celebration of city life.
Elsie had to seek permission to use the famous riff from the song’s writer, Dandy Livingstone, who lives in a remote part of Jamaica and hasn’t performed in over 40 years. This was a daunting prospect as he only receives communications from the outside world very sporadically via the village fax. As fate would have it, Dandy has just come out of retirement to play the London International Ska Festival and so was checking his faxes, amongst which was Elsie’s request. He heard ‘London Town’ down the phone, loved it and gave it his blessing.
There is also a second mix that takes the song in a more rock/pop direction (which we also LOVE!)
The single has quickly been snapped up by retail giant, Topshop, who are playing it in every store throughout the summer.
‘London Town’ is backed by an inspired interpretation of Blondie’s ‘Heart Of Glass’ that strips it back and slows it down to beautiful effect. Elsie previously told us how she is a huge fan of Blondie. When asked who she would compare herself to, she replied: “My biggest influence has got to be Blondie, but Lily Allen and Jessie J’s way of using everyday words and sentences in their lyrics have been a real influence on me. I like their attitude on stage – proper rock’n’roll even when you’re singing pop music.”
The video to London Town was shot in Elsie’s kitchen and when she posted it on You Tube, Aussie songstress Sia Furler saw it and got in touch to say how much she loved it – and Elsie’s voice.
Originally from Liverpool, Elsie’s passion for music is evident. She knows what she wants from life and how to get it. Smart, sassy, stylish and sexy, it’s only a matter of time before this girl is a star.
Definitely one to watch!
Eva Longroia ‘Thrilled’ Victoria Beckham Asked Her To Be Godmother To Harper
Eva Longroia ‘Thrilled’ Victoria Beckham Asked Her To Be Godmother To Harper
Victoria Beckham has asked good friend Eva Longoria to be godmother to her baby daughter, Harper Seven.
And the Desperate Housewives actress has revealed that she can’t wait to get stuck in to her special role.
‘I’m absolutely thrilled,’ Eva, 37, tells the Daily Mirror. ‘Harper is simply adorable.’
Victoria and husband David, 37, are reportedly planning a christening close to their Hertfordshire home for 11-month-old Harper Seven later this summer.
Eva, who became close friends with Victoria, 38, after the former Spice Girl moved to LA, helped organise her baby shower last year.
Victoria tweeted her thanks to the star after the shower, saying: ‘Such a lovely day!!!thank u so much @EvaLongoria and @KenPaves for being such wonderful friends. Baby showers are so much fun!!!!!!!x vb’
Victoria has recently been discussing how glum she looks in photographs. She told the German edition of Interview magazine: “Yes, I created this persona and I’m very different from that. I don’t feel like I have to scream and shout about it - I know I am a happy person. So I don’t get upset when people comment on the fact that I look quite miserable all the time. But people think I am.”
Victoria even went as far as to say that she often agrees, telling the magazine: “And you know, sometimes I think the same thing when I look at the pictures.”
Cameron Diaz Accompanies Drew Barrymore To Wedding Dress Fitting
Cameron Diaz Accompanies Drew Barrymore To Wedding Dress Fitting
Cameron Diaz accompanied best friend Drew Barrymore to her wedding dress fitting, sparking rumours she will be a bridesmaid on the big day.
The Charlie’s Angles actresses were snapped leaving the Chanel store in Beverly Hills, where Drew had her gown tweaked ahead of her wedding to art consultant Will Kopelman at her estate in Montecito, California this weekend.
Cameron revealed to InStyle magazine that Will asked her advice before his proposal to Drew last December, saying: “I knew Drew was getting married before she did!”
After nearly a year of dating, Will proposed to Drew over the festive holidays in Sun Valley, Idaho.
There has been a lot of speculation and gossip that the 37-year-old actress is pregnant with her and Will’s first child after she was pictured with what looked like a baby scan, although her representative has refused to comment. Drew has also been photographed wearing a lot of baggy clothes recently, perhaps a sign of a growing belly?
It will be Drew’s third time down the aisle, following her previous marriages to Welsh bar owner Jeremy Thomas and comedian Tom Green.
Drew recently admitted that she is a chaotic person by nature, revealing: “I can be very fiery, I am passionate and chaotic. I am a girl who chases everything she really wants. Life is too short to miss out on something. Things don’t drop in your lap.”
Mad Men Star January Jones Horrified By Fat Betty
Mad Men Star January Jones Horrified By Fat Betty
Mad Men star January Jones has admitted that she reacted badly to seeing herself in a fat suit.
The actress had to wear a rather heavy fat suit to simulate weight gain for the fifth season of the AMC drama, Mad Men.
“I paused [the show] and went screaming into the other room,” January told The Hollywood Reporter. “[But then] I got used to it.”
She went on to praise the ‘fat Betty’ storyline, insisting that it was the best way to deal with her real-life pregnancy: “I didn’t want to try to hide [the pregnancy] - I thought it would become comical and weird,” she explained.
“And I also didn’t want to have the character become pregnant because it just wouldn’t make sense. It was definitely difficult, but I love what [creator Matthew Weiner] did with the character’s story.”
January will submit herself as a supporting rather than leading actress for this year’s Emmy Awards, reflecting Betty’s reduced role in the latest season.
January has recently been discussing what it’s like being a working Mum in her industry, telling US Weekly: “I was back when the baby was only six or seven weeks old, so it was difficult. It was difficult to be a working mum and just juggling all of that.” January then went on to admit that everybody involved with Mad Men made things very easy for her.
“They made it baby friendly for me, because I’m the first female on set to have a baby so I got to bring him. He had his own room and I was able to work around it because I was nursing.”
Mad Men airs on Tuesday nights at 9pm on Sky Atlantic. It airs in the US on Sundays on AMC.
Did The Game Of Thrones Battle Of Blackwater Meet Expectations?
Did The Game Of Thrones Battle Of Blackwater Meet Expectations?
After 19 episodes, endless amounts of gut-slashing, head-slicing swordplay and steamy sex scenes, Game of Thrones finally played out its much-hyped and highly-anticipated Battle of Blackwater. But did it live up to the hype?
Tyrion, Joffrey and the Lannisters had to fight to hold on to King’s Landing from Stannis and his invading forces and finally - after much chatter about battles - we witnessed a full-on war between two of Thrones’ strongest forces.
Game of Thrones has been a huge hit and gathered a huge following of fans, but after all the bluster and praise lauded on HBO’s fantasy show, and all the big talk from showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss, did the episode meet expectations when it came to the fiery battle scenes?
Were the small screen effects cinema-worthy and was it, as many TV critics have suggested, one of the most visually stunning TV set-pieces of all-time?
It seems like the latter, as most fans have had nothing but praise for the episode. One commented: ‘Stunning episode. Best hour of television I have ever seen’ with another saying ‘this episode was absolutely epic. The switch from gory battlefield to the more quiet (but not less dramatic) scenes between Cersei and Sansa were great.’
What did you think of the episode?
Kristen Stewart Critiques Robert Pattinson In Cosmopolis
Kristen Stewart Critiques Robert Pattinson In Cosmopolis
Given that they’re both highly-paid actors, and fiercely private over their relationship, it’s interesting to hear that Kristen Stewart has openly critiqued her boyfriend Robert Pattinson’s on-screen acting skills.
But that’s exactly what the Twilight actress did in a recent interview, telling the media her honest opinion of he beau’s latest movie, “Cosmopolis.”
Kristen was all praise for Robert as she began: “He’s so good in it! Really, really. I don’t even know how he… I couldn’t even understand it. It’s so good, it’s so cool. I’m so proud of him.”
Kristen also noted that she had a blast at Cannes, where both “Cosmopolis” and her own new movie, “On the Road” premiered. “It’s the ultimate celebration. I was so oddly placed in my body, which I’m very unable to do. I was so not nervous. I had the greatest time, it was, like, so cool.”
Kristen’s co-star in On the Road, Garrett Hedlund, is in the running for the much-coveted role of Finnick Odair in The Hunger Games sequel, Catching Fir -; the role which Kristen’s boyfriend Robert Pattinson was rumoured to be considering. Robert has since denied that it is a possibility, leaving Garrett and two other actors fighting for the role.
Katy Perry Part Of Me: 3D To Feature Split From Russell Brand Despite His Protests
Katy Perry Part Of Me: 3D To Feature Split From Russell Brand Despite His Protests
Katy Perry is apparently planning to feature all the deails from her split from Russell Brand in her new movie Part Of Me: 3D - despite the comedian’s supposed protests.
Katy recently told US chat show host Ellen DeGeneres that the flick would “tastefully” mention her divorce from British comic Russell Brand, with reports now suggesting Russell asked that any footage involving their relationship be left out of the final edit.
However, The Sun newspaper reports that Katy put forward Russell’s request to producers, but it was decided that the film wouldn’t flow properly without any clips of their romance.
Russell allegedly called the Wide Awake singer a few weeks ago to find out what snippets had made the finished product.
A source told the newspaper: “When she first decided to make the movie in 2010, Russell agreed to be filmed on the condition he got to see the final edit.
“Being a fly-on-the-wall documentary, he knew full well that it was going to be warts and all – and wasn’t best comfortable with that. But Katy persuaded him to do it.”
The source added: “Now they have broken up, she can keep whatever she wants in the film.”
Katy recently addressed her forthcoming movie in an interview with MTV US, saying that her fans will see her at her most “vulnerable” in the motion picture.

Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran Working On New Album Together
Country star Taylor Swift is apparently working with talented guitar player Ed Sheeran on her new album.
British newspaper The Sun reported that the duo will be working alongside each other on Taylor’s new album. Ed has quickly become one of the UK’s biggest stars following the release of his debut album ‘+’, and is now working on Taylor’s own new record at a studio in Los Angeles.
While it’s unknown whether the pair are working on a single track, a multitude, or just the whole sound of the album itself, the move is a big career step for flame-haired Ed.
“Ed and Taylor have been in the studio in LA a lot over the past few weeks working on new material,” a source told the tabloid paper. “She’s into her British music and became a massive fan of Ed before asking to work with him recently. There is a mutual affection between the pair. It’s still to be officially decided how the material will be released but just a single credit on her album will be worth big money. Taylor’s country sound is massive around the world.”
It’s not the first big-time album Ed’s helped with, he also helped X-Factor boyband One Direction complete their incredible debut, which is now one of the biggest albums of the past year in both the UK and the US.

The Hunger Games Catching Fire: Finnick Odair Role Narrowed Down To 3 Actors
The search for a suitable candidate to play Finnick Odair in The Hunger Games sequel ‘Catching Fire’ has been narrowed down to three actors.
E! Online has reported that Armie Hammer, Taylor Kitsch and Garrett Hedlund are the three names in the frame for the much-coveted role. Finnick Odair is a former Hunger Games winner who befriends Jennifer Lawrence’s character, Katniss Everdeen, in the sequel to the hit movie.
Robert Pattinson had been linked to the role, but has now ruled himself out.
E! quoted an insider as saying that a decision could be made by the end of this week, but also claims that another source says unknown actors are being considered.
Armie Hammer played the Winklevoss twins in The Social Network and is set to star in The Lone Ranger next year, and many are supporting the decision to cast him as Finnick.
Meanwhile, Taylor Kitsch starred in Battleship, and played Gambit in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. He also played Tim Riggins in Friday Night Lights.
Garrett Hedlund appeared in Troy, Tron: Legacy, and co-stars with Kristen Stewart in her new movie On The Road.
Whoever they choose, we’re sure it will be another hit, and can’t wait to see Catching Fire which is based on the second book in Suzanne Collins’ bestselling trilogy. The movie will debut on Nov. 22, 2013.
