Kelly Osbourne is getting married in England.
The Fashion Police star, who is engaged to vegetarian chef Matthew Mosshart, will have a very traditional wedding at her parents mansion in Buckinghamshire, according to her mother Sharon, who is overseeing the special event: "It's going to be very English and very Victorian. At our house in England."
The X Factor judge also revealed that she is a huge fan of Kelly's fiance because he asked her and her rocker husband Ozzy for their daughter's hand in marriage before he proposed. "She loves him and he loves her, and I love the fact that he truly loves my daughter and makes her happy and that makes me happy," she added.
Kelly, 28, recently revealed that she wants to move back to England from Los Angeles in the near future to start a family because she doesn't want her offspring to have an American accent. "I want to have kids - a boy and a girl - but I'd only want to have them with Matthew. I'd like to live in England when I do, as I will not have a baby call me 'mom.' I will kill myself before being called that. I'm in no rush, though - I'm happy watching my brother do it first."

Britney Spears Video Banned in UK
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Music Videos, Pop, New Releases,
Britney Spears' "Work Bitch" video has been banned in the UK.
The song not only sees the star say the word "bitch" 19 times, but also displays it written in neon, as well as numerous racy scenes featuring dancers being whipped and in bondage gear, making it unsuitable for broadcast by British TV stations before 10pm. While channels have called for a "clean" edit of the video to show in the day, so far Britney's people haven't decided if they will provide one.
"While the video has gone down a storm online, it's a bit too much to play on TV. Music stations like The Box and MTV have their hands tied," a source said.
Not all the tracks on Britney's forthcoming eighth album will be so racy, as she has also co-written an "emotional" ballad called "Perfume" with Sia - who has been behind hits for Rihanna, David Guetta and Flo Rida - about her life. "'Perfume' is a really personal track and very emotional. This is the first album Britney has completely co-written. It's all about her feelings and experiences and she's very proud of it," the source added.

Royal Wedding: Wedding Dress Hoax, or Leak?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Engagements, Weddings, Clothing, Fashion Police, Style, Rumors,
The media exploded today when it was announced that future Princess Kate Middleton has picked a designer for her wedding gown, possibly the most important dress of this century. A British newspaper announced that Middleton chose the Alexander McQueen fashion house, specifically creative director Sarah Burton, to design the gown.
But, the fashion house says it isn’t true. Burton and the CEO of the company have denied the story. And yet, that doesn’t necessarily mean it is.
It’s believed that any designer commissioned for the royal dress will be bound to utmost secrecy, so the vehement denials could be part of a cover-up. Details of the royal wedding have been ravenously reported, but there are some points Prince William and fiance Kate clearly would rather keep to themselves.

Meryl Streep to Play Margaret Thatcher in New Biopic
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Biopics, Drama, Casting, Upcoming Releases,
Let the Oscar buzz begin.
Meryl Streep will go to work next month to film The Iron Lady, a biopic focusing on Britain’s former prime minister Margaret Thatcher, who served from 1979 to 1990.
“She’s perfect casting in many ways,” Jim Broadbent, who plays Thatcher’s husband Denis, said of Streep. “She’ll absolutely do it in a brilliant way.”
Margaret Thatcher was Britian’s first female prime minister, and her gender will be a central thesis of the film.
Meryl Streep is an American by birth and citizenship, and her costar says she’ll bring a unique point of view to the script.
“She can bring an outsider’s view of the story, so that it won’t become a lazy, parochial piece that Brits understand but where nobody else really knows what’s going on.”

Auto-Tune Scandal Unfolds on The X Factor
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Reality, Gossip, Video,
The seventh season of Britain’s The X Factor premiered as recently as August 21, and already it’s the most controversial the series has ever known. The flagship program for its parent network ITV, X Factor has been a reality TV mainstay in the UK - much in the same way that American Idol is a mainstay for the US.
That isn’t the only thing X Factor has in common with the popular US reality series. Like Idol, X Factor is a singing competition where one winner is crowned at the end of the season. Like Idol, X Factor is known for its harshest critic, Simon Cowell. But in light of recent events, American reality fans are hoping that’s all that X Factor has in common with Idol.
Singers on the newest season of X Factor have very clearly had their voices altered with Auto-Tune, an audio processor which corrects pitch and helps singers sound perfectly in tune. Auto-Tune may also be used to the opposite effect, making singers sound very much out of tune when it is applied incorrectly. Cher made the sound of Auto-Tune famous when she used on her “Believe” single. Other well-known singers to apply the technology include Janet Jackson, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.

Did Simon Cowell Wow Britney Spears?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Television, Rumors,
“I think she was in awe of me,” Simon Cowell told the British press recently. Currently in country to work on the X-Factor, Cowell will soon be Stateside for the eighth season of American Idol. And, according to him, the reality TV contestants aren’t the only ones who seem to be overwhelmed in his very big presence.
When Britney Spears visited the show, Cowell said she was awed by him, though he admitted the statement “may be a bit egotistical.” Ego from you, Simon? Never! “She was just staring at me,” he admitted. “I said ‘touch me, I’m human,’ and I think that broke the ice.”
Cowell recently told the British media that he may not return for another season of X-Factor, though he’s been threatening the same of American Idol for years.

Paul McCartney Makes Heather Mills a Millionaire
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Divorce, Legal Issues,
Come next week, Heather Mills will not just be the most-hated women in Britain, she’ll also be one of the wealthiest.
According to UK’s Daily Mail, there may finally be an end to the Paul McCartney-Heather Mills divorce saga. The two, who announced their separation back in May 2006, have been negotiating in court over the past week. The Beatle and the Dancing with the Stars contender were married back in June 2002.
The Mail claims Mills is expected to receive a $110 million settlement. That figure is based on $40 million lump sum for her, and approximately $5 million per year for the McCartney heir up until the age of 18. (Beatrice is currently 4-years-old.) Stella’s half-sis will also have a $2 million trust waiting for her when she comes of age. In all, Mills will be raking in approximately $27.5 million for each year she was married to the music legend.

Okay, so the books are set in Britain. But that didn’t stop India from battling Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling for the right to build a life-sized replica of the Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry in their country. The Delhi High Court threw out Rowling’s claim that the building would be a copyright infringement, giving builders the go-ahead on the huge project. The building, being constructed out of papier mache and bamboo, will become part of the biggest Hindu religious celebration in eastern India this month. Hogwarts’ exterior will be completely replicated, even featuring an imitation marble staircase and stone floor in the entrance hall, which will be lit by flaming torches.
