Dannii Minogue and Simon CowellDannii Minogue is reportedly "in a dark place" following claims she had a fling with Simon Cowell.

The 40-year-old singer-turned-fashion designer enjoyed several nights of passion with The X Factor boss after joining the judging panel in 2007, according to a new unauthorized biography, Sweet Revenge: The Intimate Life of Simon Cowell.

But having just split with Kris Smith, the father of her 21-month-old son Ethan, the revelation is said to have pushed an already upset Dannii to breaking point: "She's understandably distraught by all of this coming out just as she's struggling to cope with the breakdown of her relationship with Kris. It was all such a long time ago and to have to deal with it now in the wake of the last few weeks is just too much. She is incredibly raw and this is the last thing she wants to endure," a source said.

In the book, Simon, 52, is quoted as saying, "I had a crush on her. It was Dannii's hair, the sexy clothes and the t**s. I was like a schoolboy. She was foxy. She was a real man's girl. Very feminine."

Brad Pitt and Angelina JolieBrad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are planning to move to England for two years. The couple - who lived in the London suburb of Richmond last year while Brad shot World War Z - want to return to the pretty town while Angelina shoots three England-based movies back-to-back.

Filming starts on drama Maleficent next month, then the mother-of-six will join Brad in Ridley Scott's The Counselor before working on a Danny Boyle movie.

"They loved it when they were in the UK last year. They like the culture and are happy for their children to receive schooling here. They think Richmond is a beautiful part of the world. Angelina starts work on her next film, Maleficent, in about three weeks so Brad will look after their brood over summer as he won't start work on the Ridley Scott film until September," a source said.

But with such a hectic work schedule line up, the loved-up pair - who announced their engagement on Friday - still haven't decided when to tie the knot. "No date has been set yet but they'll probably go back to their home in France to get married," the insider said, talking to The Sun.


Josh Hartnett and Amanda SeyfriedAmanda Seyfried has reportedly split with Josh Hartnett. The 26-year-old In Time actress has apparently called time on their four-month fling because she is too busy filming Les Miserables in London while Josh is over in New York.

"Amanda's been flying home to Los Angeles when she's not in the studio. She has been trying to see Josh but it hasn't worked. She decided to end things," a source told The Daily Mail.

The pair first hooked up in January after being introduced by mutual friends, and were recently spotted taking a romantic stroll on the beach with Amanda's dog Finn. However, the Mamma Mia! actress' change of heart means she is once again alone, although she admits singledom had its plus sides:

"In the past, whenever a relationship of mine ended, my friends would tell me to be single for a while - that it would be good for me. You don't have to check in with anybody except your mother, and there's all this freedom. You realise how many pressures come from being with someone."


Anne HathawayAnne Hathaway has reportedly postponed her wedding because of her newly-cropped hair.

The 29-year-old actress - who has had to lose weight and cut off her long locks to play dying prostitute Fantine in the film adaptation of Les Miserables - apparently wants to wait for her hair to grow back before tying the knot with fiancé Adam Schulman.

"Anne's worried there won't be time to get back in shape and grow her hair for a summer wedding. She also has to promote her movie Batman. They are thinking about postponing until later this year or maybe 2013," a source told The Daily Mail.

The couple announced their engagement in November and Anne explained he "ruined" her plans to stay single: "We hit if off immediately but it took us a pretty long time to get together. He thought that I had a boyfriend and I thought that he had a girlfriend, so I thought that I'd better keep my distance because I didn't want to be that girl. I am very much in love with him, [only] Adam totally ruined my plan. I was really actually looking forward to a little alone time, and then I fell in love like a fool!"

The Hollywood couple confirmed yesterday that Brad has popped the question to his partner of seven years and Angelina's father Jon Voight couldn't be happier for the pair. "I'm very happy for them," he told US Weekly.

Brad and Angelina's engagement comes after it was revealed the pair may be about to work together for the first time since meeting on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

Baptiste Giabiconi and Katy PerryFrench model Baptiste Giabiconi has admitted he has a "big crush" on Katy Perry, but claims they are not dating.

My main focus now is to finish my album. I'm in rehearsals and working daily, so there is no room to have a relationship at this time," he said.

Baptiste met Katy at Paris Fashion Week and they have struck up a close bond, and the catwalk star has revealed he and the 27-year-old singer have lots in common: "We talk a lot about music and fashion, because we both live for the two.

Zac EfronZac Efron didn't recognize himself after putting on 18lbs of muscle for his new movie.

The 24-year-old actor bulked up to play a war veteran in The Lucky One and admitted he was impressed with his own willpower. "By the end of the movie I didn't recognize myself. You hear about guys like Christian Bale who dive into it and are really able to transform. I've always wondered if I had the willpower to actually do it. And I'll always have pride around the sense that I can," he told Men's Health .

Although the High School Musical actor claims he doesn't have any special talents, he thinks his willingness to work hard plays has played a huge part in his successful career: "I could pick up almost anything. If you put it in front of me, I could always find a way to tackle it. [While training for The Lucky One] I'd get this strange sense of power as those weights increased. I was never a natural at anything, but I could always outwork everybody."


Lionel RichieLionel Richie reportedly owes over $1.1 million in unpaid taxes. The soul singer, who resides in Los Angeles, has been hit with a lien - an official claim against his property - for the payment of his debt which totals $1,130,609, according to TMZ.com.

The musician has racked up a huge number of hits over the years, including "Hello," "Dancing On The Ceiling" and "Easy Like Sunday Morning," and according to legal documents he is worth a reputed $200 million.

If Lionel - who recently released a duets album, Tuskegee, featuring new versions of his greatest hits - fails to pay the bill then the American government could repossess his property to clear the debt. His representative is yet to comment on the claims.

The 62-year-old star - the father of Nicole Richie - will next appear alongside Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Nettles and Robin Thicke as judges on new TV show Duets.
