Kerry Katona and George Kay to renew wedding vows

Kerry Katona is planning to renew her wedding vows with George Kay
Kerry Katona and her husband George Kay are hoping to renew their wedding vows and make a "fresh start".

The Atomic Kitten singer allowed the 36-year-old former rugby star to move back into her home recently, which she shares with her five kids, and the pair are now happier than ever and looking ahead to the future.

A source told The People: "They've had their ups and downs so they're not going to rush into it, but next year they want to cement their feelings for each other with a blessing and renewal of their vows.

"Because of their difficult past together, they are really focussing on being good for each other right now.

"Kerry is already getting excited about another wedding though. She is in such amazing shape and has had liposuction, and is now training and looking after her figure - partially in preparation for the big day."

While the couple were separated, Kerry, 36, filmed the Channel 5 show 'In Therapy', where she claimed she didn't want George back but she has since changed her mind.

The insider explained: "Kerry was in a dark place during filming and really opened up to the therapist. She's tried to explain to George that the sessions helped her realise that she wanted to give her marriage another chance."

George was arrested last year for alleged assault but no further action was taken after Kerry dropped the charges.

And Kerry - who has children Molly, 14, Lilly Sue, 13, Heidi, nine, Maxwell, eight, and Dylan Jorge, two - said: "We're together and we're very happy. All I'm going to say is anyone who is in a marriage, you all have your ups and downs."

Kendall Jenner's birthday surprise

Kendall Jenner got so drunk at her 21st birthday party that she forgot a prince gave her a Rolls Royce
Khloe Kardashian says Kendall Jenner got so drunk at her birthday party that she forgot a prince gave her a car.

The model's sister Khloe Kardashian revealed that the unnamed royal presented Kendall with the expensive vehicle at her birthday bash earlier this week but Kendall didn't remember it the next day. 

Speaking on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live', Khloe said: "We go outside and there's a guy with a Rolls Royce, we're like 'what's the gift, the guy or the Rolls?' 

"And then the guy just hands her the keys to this car. We don't know who this guy is, he's some prince.

"I was like 'Is this a joke?' I think on my 21st birthday I got like a dinner and a purse or something.

"The next morning I asked her about it and she said, 'Oh my God I forgot I got a car!' That's how drunk she was."

The model's new car is the latest addition to her growing collection, which already includes a Range Rover and $100,000 Chevrolet.

Kendall's famous family hired out a private function room, which was decorated with large balloons emblazoned with her name, at Coach restaurant to kick off the festivities and all guests were told to wear floral headpieces at their seats in order to set the mood.

After polishing off their tasty meal, the party moved on to Delilah, where the model was presented with an "adorable" cake, which had a "throwback photo of her in a purple tutu" pasted on. 

As well as the famous family, Kendall's best friend Hailey Baldwin, Cindy Crawford, Kate Mara, Melanie Griffith, Gabrielle Union, Paris Hilton and Jonathan Cheban were in attendance. 

The bash also saw a surprise appearance from Kendall's half-sister Kim Kardashian West, who has kept a low profile since she was held at gunpoint in France last month.

Lady Gaga to play Donatella Versace in American Crime Story

Lady Gaga will play Donatella Versace in 'American Crime Story'
Lady Gaga will play Donatella Versace in 'Versace/Cunanan: American Crime Story', which will tell the story of the murder of Donatella's brother Gianni Versace by the serial killer Andrew Cunanan.

The 30-year-old singer will portray the designer in 'Versace/Cunanan: American Crime Story', which will tell the story of the murder of Donatella's brother Gianni Versace by the serial killer Andrew Cunanan in July 1997, Us Weekly reveals. 

Donatella took over the fashion empire following Gianni's death and is the current Vice President of the Versace Group, which Gaga has appeared in fashion campaigns for. 

Meanwhile, the 10-episode series, which begins filming next year, is not the only project about Gianni which is being planned. 

Antonio Banderas was recently cast as the late designer in an upcoming movie directed by Danish film director Bille August. 

However, the designer brand insisted they have not "authorised" the upcoming project and do not have any involvement in the production. 

The Italian fashion group said: "[We] have neither authorised nor had any involvement whatsoever in the forthcoming movie about Versace. The movie should only be seen as a work of fiction."

It is believed filming will take place in the Italian city of Milan before moving to Reggio Calabria situated in the south of the island, which is where the creative mastermind was born, and then on to Miami, America, where the founder of the luxury label was murdered in 1997 aged 50.

Calvin Harris praises Taylor Swift

Calvin Harris says he is "blessed" to have worked with Taylor Swift
Calvin Harris says he is "blessed" to have worked with Taylor Swift on the song 'This Is What You Came For', which features Rihanna on vocals.

Although the former couple had a bitter break-up earlier this year, Calvin, 32, praised Taylor, 26, on Twitter for writing his song 'This Is What You Came For', which features Rihanna on vocals.

After a Rihanna fan account tweeted, "This Is What You Came For is the only song released this Year to be certified 2x platinium in the UK congrats @CalvinHarris and @rihanna (sic)," Calvin quoted the message and wrote: "I am blessed to work with incredible artists @rihanna @taylorswift13 thank you!!! (sic)."

The track sparked a row between Taylor and Calvin after they split in May, as weeks later it was reported the 'Shake It Off' hitmaker was the person behind songwriter pseudonym Nils Sjoberg.

And after representatives for the singer - who struck up a romance with Tom Hiddleston soon after splitting from the Scottish DJ - confirmed her involvement, Calvin took to Twitter to slam her for trying to "tear [him] down". 

He wrote: "And she sings on a little bit of it too. Amazing lyric writer and she smashed it as usual.

"Hurtful to me at this point that her and her team would go so far out of their way to try and make ME look bad at this stage though 

"I figure if you're happy in your new relationship you should focus on that instead of trying to tear your ex bf down for something to do

"I know you're off tour and you need someone new to try and bury like Katy ETC but I'm not that guy, sorry. I won't allow it

"Please focus on the positive aspects of YOUR life because you've earned a great one

"God bless everyone have a beautiful day (sic)". 

Calvin brought Rihanna in to record the vocals on the song as he and Taylor- who dated for 15 months - feared their relationship would overshadow the track if they released it together. 

However, they split in May and the so-called "breaking point" in their romance reportedly came after he was "disrespectful" by saying he'd never work with her while promoting the track.

Michael Buble 'sad but hopeful' following son's cancer diagnosis

Michael Buble and Luisana Lopilato are "sad but hopeful" following their son's cancer diagnosis
Michael Buble and his wife Luisana Lopilato are "sad but hopeful" following their son Noah's cancer diagnosis.

The 'Haven't Met You Yet' hitmaker took to social media to confirm the devastating news that their eldest son Noah, three, has been diagnosed with the illness and is currently undergoing treatment in the United States and friends say they are doing everything they can for him.

An insider told Us Weekly: "They are really sad but hopeful. They immediately got him very good care and they are hoping and praying for the best. They are getting him the best doctors around. It's really heartbreaking. This was a real shock, but they are doing everything they can."

In a statement released on Michael's Facebook page, he said: "We are devastated about the recent cancer diagnosis of our oldest son Noah who is currently undergoing treatment in the US. We have always been very vocal about the importance of family and the love we have for our children.

"Luisana and I have put our careers on hold in order to devote all our time and attention to helping Noah get well. At this difficult time, we ask only for your prayers and respect for our privacy. We have a long journey in front of us and hope that with the support of family, friends and fans around the world, we will win this battle, God willing."

The tragic news comes not long after the 41-year-old singer - who also has eight-month-old Elias - spoke about his love for his sons.

He said: "I had no idea how much I would love being a dad.

"That's it, that's all I care about ... I love them too much probably, if there was such a thing. It's made everything else so insignificant, moments that I was afraid of and moments that would overwhelm me have now become a joy because I've realised how not serious they are compared to what is really important, which is Noah and Eli and that's it."

Reason why Sarah Jessica Parker's daughters want her business

Sarah Jessica Parker's daughters want to get their hands on her business
Sarah Jessica Parker has admitted her daughters Marion and Tabitha have been eyeing up her empire.

The 'Sex and the City' star can't believe seven-year-old twins Marion and Tabitha, whom she has with her husband Matthew Broderick, are already thinking about ways to take over her empire because they have "designs" thought out that they're itching to put into practice to boost the company's success.

Speaking to 'Entertainment Tonight', she said: "Apparently one of my daughters is plotting to take over mama's company. She has designs."

However, the 51-year-old actress isn't overly surprised as one of the twins is obsessed with fashion.

She explained: "I think she really likes being bossy. No... I think she likes organising things and kind of putting things into action. If I walk on the stairs or they see me getting dressed, they have opinions about what I'm wearing. They don't offer up design ideas yet, but I'm sure that's all moments away."

The blonde beauty wants to drill it into her children that it's OK to fail when it comes to business, even though it's disheartening because of the other people involved.

She said: "The failures are really disappointing, because there are other people involved. It's not yourself as much as how it affects other people, but hopefully you can bring those people along on other opportunities and be smarter in some way in the future."

And Sarah knows exactly what it's like to get shot back when it comes to work, as she was fired from both 1998 movie 'Antz' and 2004's 'Home on the Range', despite having done "many sessions" of voice recordings for them.

She said recently: "I was fired from 'Antz', that animated movie. And I was fired from 'Home on the Range', that other animated movie. Apparently I was a bad ant. I can't remember which movie fired me first. The first time they were like, 'we're going in a different direction,' which I always heard as a joke and that one was a cow."

Cyndi Lauper believes there's 'a lot of darkness' in life

Cyndi Lauper believes there's "a lot of darkness' in life
Cyndi Lauper believes there's "a lot of darkness' in life, and although she thinks the world can be a dark place, she tries to remain positive and inject "a lot of light" into her life.

The 63-year-old singer - who has batted with depression throughout her career - has admitted she tries to 

stay positive by bringing "a lot of light" to herself because she thinks the world can be too dark a place.

Speaking to Closer magazine about her outlook on the world, the 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' hitmaker said: "There's a lot of darkness (in life), but there's also a lot of light.

"I really try to bring a lot of light to myself."

And the musician - who has 18-year-old son Declyn with her husband David Thornton - has revealed she is a "family person" and loves "the heck" out of her brood, which helps to keep her strong.

She said: "And I'm a family person. I love the heck out of them."

Meanwhile the star, who has enjoyed a successful career in the music and entertainment industry spanning over 30 years, doesn't believe she has "ever achieved greatness".

She explained: "I don't think I have ever achieved greatness despite everything I've done ... but it's not so much greatness, it's happiness you need to focus on. Enjoying life is the best revenge. You have to stay connected to life and the things that excite you. Life is for learning."

And Cyndi has also claimed people have taken advantage of her throughout her career.

Speaking previously, she said: "I was never smart about money like Prince. I wish I wasn't taken advantage of so much.

"You can't live your whole life worrying about staying famous. If losing some fame means doing what you want, you gotta go with what you want.

"I think I have reached an age when I can have pink hair if I want - or blue hair. But blue, it turns a little green, so right now I am going with the pink."

Khloé Kardashian is reportedly pregnant with boyfriend Tristan Thompson's baby

Khloé Kardashian is reportedly expecting her first child with boyfriend Tristan Thompson
Khloé Kardashian is reportedly expecting her first child with boyfriend Tristan Thompson, and the pair are allegedly talking about plans to tie the knot.

The 32-year-old 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star is allegedly pregnant with the 25-year-old Cleveland Cavaliers professional basketball player's baby, and although the news came as a "surprise" to the reality TV star, she is "so happy" she will be a mother. 

Speaking to X17 Online, which has since been reported on the Mirror Online, a source said: "[Khloé's] so happy.

"The pregnancy came as a surprise, particularly since Tristan's ex-girlfriend is currently pregnant, but Khloé got on board with the idea of having a baby pretty quickly."

And the couple, who first appeared to go public with their relationship in September this year, are reportedly set to tie the knot prior to the birth, because the former 'Kocktails with Khloé' host and her 60-year-old momager, Kris Jenner, want "everything done correctly", so the pregnancy doesn't look like an "accident". 

The source explained: "Khloé and Kris want everything done correctly. They don't want this to look like an accident and Khloé really wants to show the world that Tristan is her man. She wants to kind of follow tradition and have Tristan ask her mum for permission to propose, in hopes of making the engagement look more traditional and formal."

It has been reported Tristan has already asked Kris' permission to marry her daughter, but Kris has already opened up about Khloé's new beau and has admitted he is a "really nice guy". 

Speaking previously about their relationship, Kris said: "They're really cute. You know, she's having a good time, he seems like a really nice guy."

Meanwhile Tristan's former flame, Jordan Craig, is due to give birth to her baby soon, and has recently shared a picture of her burgeoning bump at her baby shower last month. 

Alongside the post, she wrote: "Although watching and feeling you grow everyday has made my pregnancy such an unforgettable, magical experience ... words cannot express how anxious and excited I am to finally meet you! (sic)."

Mariah Carey 'depressed' after split

Mariah Carey is feeling "depressed" following her split from James Packer
Mariah Carey is feeling "depressed" following her split from James Packer as she initially thought they would get back together.

The 46-year-old singer was left devastated when her engagement to the Australian billionaire was called off last month and after presuming they'd get back together, she has now accepted it's over.

A source told People magazine: "First the split didn't seem to faze Mariah. It was like she expected things to be fine soon. Now she realises that things aren't fine and not being with James makes her depressed."

Insiders says Mariah - who has five-year-old twins, Morrocan and Monroe, with ex-husband Nick Cannon - has been going out to take her mind off things. 

The source continued: "She doesn't want to sit at home and dwell on it. She is very hurt that he dumped her. She knows she will never be able to find someone like him."

It was recently claimed that Mariah had begged ex Nick for a divorce so she could marry James 

The former couple split in August 2014 but their divorce had dragged on because of legal wranglings about the children.

But after the 'Honey' hitmaker had met James and got engaged to him, she phoned Nick to ask him to legally end their marriage.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "Nick and Mariah's divorce was dragging on and on, mainly because of the back and forth between their lawyers. Mariah's team brought in [famed LA divorce attorney] Laura Wasser, who helped simplify things, but then Mariah called Nick and said, 'I really want to get married. Will you sign these papers?' Nick was cool and said, 'I'm not going to stand in your way. I'll sign the papers.' He signed in September, because Mariah and James wanted to get married in early 2017." 

However, days after her divorce from Nick was granted, Mariah was left heartbroken when her engagement to James was suddenly called off last month.

Zayn Malik's romance with Perrie Edwards was over months before split

Zayn Malik knew his relationship with his ex-fiancée Perrie Edwards was "breaking down" five months before their split
Zayn Malik has revealed he knew his relationship with Perrie Edwards was over months before he officially called time on their engagement.

The 23-year-old musician ended his two-year engagement to the Little Mix singer in August 2015, but he has now revealed that knew the relationship was headed for disaster in March -- the same month he decided to depart from chart-topping boy band One Direction.

The 'Pillowtalk' hitmaker revealed in his new memoir 'Zayn': "It was March 2015. I had been in a bad place for a while and I didn't see myself getting out of it unless I made a change.

"My relationship with my fiancée, Perrie, was breaking down. To make matters worse, there were so many crazy stories flying around in the newspapers about us, and it felt like such an invasion of privacy, it made me just want to disappear for a while."

And although the 'It's You' singer never shares the details of his split in his memoir, the star explains that his decision to move to Los Angeles came as a result of the end of their relationship.

He wrote: "I decided I needed a change. I wanted to switch things up, gain some new inspiration. This was at a time when a lot of stuff was going on in my personal life. My engagement to Perrie was over. Because of that, and me leaving One Direction, the media in London was tailing me wherever I went. There were photographers parked outside my house all the time, and fans would ring the doorbell in the middle of the night. It all just felt like too much to take. I needed a change of scene. So I ended up in LA."

Meanwhile, the 'Shout Out to My Ex' hitmaker, also 23, has shared her side of the story in her band's upcoming book 'Our World'.

Perrie wrote: "It was horrible, the worst time in my life. A four-year relationship, two-year engagement ended by a simple text message. Just like that.

"Even though things in my career were going really well, it was incredibly difficult for me."

Can you believe why Gwen Stefani is 'inspired' by Blake Shelton

Gwen Stefani was "inspired" by Blake Shelton
Gwen Stefani was "inspired" to get back into songwriting by her now-boyfriend Blake Shelton.

The 'Used To Love You' hitmaker has praised her now boyfriend for being "a friend to her when she needed a friend" following her split from Gavin Rossdale.

She told Glamour magazine: "It's about saving my life. And it was interesting, because I know you're going to ask me about Blake, but finding somebody who was going through the exact same experience? That was an inspiration.

"He was a friend to me when I needed a friend. An unexpected gift. And that became an inspiration in the songwriting ... It's definitely two different cultures. But there are many similarities, in things that we love and our morals. But it's really fun when you can learn about so many new things and share those differences."

Meanwhile, the 47-year-old singer previously admitted she lost her confidence as a songwriter before she started work on her new album. 

She shared: "At the time, not only did my family fall apart but my kids were taken away half the time. That was devastating. But if I didn't have that time, I wouldn't have written the record. I wouldn't have healed. I had already lost so much of my confidence, even before all the tragedy. You don't understand how far gone I was. 

"There was a time when I was desperate to write. You have a long career and you don't want it to end. You start to become competitive with what you've done before and competitive with things people have done after you, that are like you. So many times I've gone into the studio and people are excited about me being there, yet don't have the confidence I can do anything any more. I had been praying I would find something. For this album I had the right team. When I wrote 'Used to Love You', that was a huge turning point."

Khloe Kardashian slams brother Rob

Khloe Kardashian hit out at Rob Kardashian after he cut off contact with Blac Chyna
Khloe Kardashian has criticised her brother Rob Kardashian after he cut off contact with his fiancée Blac Chyna.

The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star and her sister Kim Kardashian West criticised their brother for failing to stay in touch with his fiancée Blac Chyna.

Khloe said: "He has not spoke to her in days. How dare you leave a pregnant woman? I don't give a f**k. I don't care if he is our brother, it is crazy how he is acting. It's f***ed up. If this was any man that we were with we would be pissed."

Whilst Kim added: "Rob is going to be a dad and has a family to answer to and now more than ever Rob can't handle things the way he once did. He has to deal with his problems not just run away and hide from them."

And the 32-year-old television went on to urge Rob, 29, to "communicate more".

Speaking on the new episode of the family's E! reality show, Khloe added: "You need to communicate more so if you are going through something we can help you ... Rob feels we are all dramatic and judgmental then we have to take heed to that. What's done is done and I am happy that Rob can now talk to us about things."

Meanwhile, Rob previously criticised his family for not "welcoming" Chyna.

His mother Kris Jenner told him: "I get that you're in this new relationship, that's amazing for you, but it doesn't mean that you can't still be close to all of us, that's how life works."

Whilst Rob replied: "No I know but y'all aren't like that welcoming of this relationship so you can't expect me to just be like, 'Oh let's all hang out and everything's cool and fine!' It's not that easy."

Adele 'too scared' to have more kids

Adele is "too scared" to have more kids
Adele has admitted she probably won't have any more children because she is "too scared" after suffering from "really bad" postpartum depression with her four-year-old son Angelo.

The 28-year-old singer was "frightened" after having son Angelo, who is now four, with her partner Simon Konecki because she suffered from "really bad" postpartum depression, and as a result she is wary about getting pregnant again. 

When asked if she's planning to have another child, she replied: "I'm too scared. I had really bad postpartum depression after I had my son, and it frightened me ... I didn't talk to anyone about it. I was very reluctant."

But Adele wasn't the only one of her pals who struggled to deal with motherhood. 

She added to Vanity Fair magazine: "One day I said to a friend, 'I f***ing hate this, and she just burst into tears and said, 'I f***ing hate this, too.' "

The star also admitted she felt "pressured" into having kids and "very inadequate" after giving birth. 

Adele's comments come after she insisted last December she had "never been happier" and had recently struggled to write songs because she wasn't feeling "sad". 

She said: "I've never been happier. And I've never been healthier. So I'm good. I found it impossible [to write songs] for a while. I didn't know what I wanted to write about ... What's wrong is, I wasn't sad.

"'Hello' is just about reconnecting with everyone else and myself. From the other side, I couldn't get over my guilt of leaving my kid to go and write a record and stuff like that. So [it's] getting over that - getting on the other side of that. It was just, you know, it's in general, just hello to everyone."

The 'Someone Like You' hitmaker insisted at the time that because of Simon and Angelo she was OK. 

She added: "I know that sounds a bit like I'm trying to write a Hollywood movie but it's only because of him and because of our kid and stuff that I'm all right."

Mariah Carey 'blames Scientology' for split

Mariah Carey is reportedly blaming Scientology for her split from fiancee James Packer
Mariah Carey is reportedly blaming Scientology for her split from fiancee James Packer as she believes he has been influenced by the controversial church.

The 46-year-old singer was left "heartbroken" when her engagement to the Australian billionaire was suddenly called off and she is said to believe that the controversial church has something to do with it. 

Insiders claim she feels James - who was a Scientologist between 2002 and 2006 - has been influenced by his business manager and former Church of Scientology spokesperson Tommy Davis, who has poisoned his mind against her. 

A source told the NY Post newspaper: "Mariah and James were looking at homes in Beverly Hills to buy together in August, everything was fine, he was saying she was his soulmate, and he couldn't wait to marry her. Then suddenly he changed. In September, James suddenly seemed not like himself at all. Mariah is suspicious of Tommy, who has been managing James' finances, and she suspects he is controlling him."

They claimed that James seemed a completely different person when Mariah joined him on his yacht in Greece in September. 

The source continued: "Mariah's manager Stella [Bulochnikov] clashed with Tommy, and she demanded to know what was going on. James was acting so strange that Mariah asked him directly, 'What is going on, are you back in Scientology?' Then she was told by his staff, 'James isn't well and he doesn't want you to see him like this, so please leave.'

"Mariah was stunned. To see the man you are going to marry change overnight. It was like he was a different person. She became very concerned and didn't know how to deal with his sudden change of heart. It is heartbreaking for her."

However, James' camp have denied Scientology has anything to do with their split and instead blamed it on Mariah's excessive spending and the drama surrounding her as she films a reality show

Bob Dylan addresses Nobel Prize win

Bob Dylan has finally addressed his Nobel Prize win
Bob Dylan has finally addressed the news that he will receive the Nobel Prize for Literature, after he refused to return the calls from the Nobel committee.

The 75-year-old musician is to be the recipient of the Nobel Prize for Literature, but has caused controversy after he 

failed to speak publicly about being named as the winner of the award and reportedly refused to answer any calls from the Nobel committee.

Now, the 'Blowin' in the Wind' hitmaker has finally spoken out about the honour - which will see him receive a cheque for £750,000 from the King of Sweden, King Carl XVI Gustav - branding it as "amazing [and] incredible". 

Speaking to the Daily Telegraph newspaper, the songwriter said: "Absolutely [I will go to the ceremony]. If it's at all possible.

"It's hard to believe. [It's] amazing, incredible. Whoever dreams about something like that?"

The news of his acknowledgement comes after Swedish Academy member Per Wastberg voiced his frustration at the star's inability to return their phone calls regarding the award.

He said previously: "One can say that it is impolite and arrogant... He is who he is.

"We were aware that he can be difficult and that he does not like appearances when he stands alone on the stage". 

Meanwhile, the permanent secretary of the Swedish Academy Sara Danius has compared the works of the 'Like a Rolling Stone' hitmaker to that of the ancient Greeks.

She said: "If you look back, far back, 2,500 years or so, you discover Homer and Sappho, and they wrote poetic texts that were meant to be listened to, they were meant to be performed, 

often together with instruments, and it's the same way with Bob Dylan. But we still read Homer and Sappho... and we enjoy it, and same thing with Bob Dylan. He can be read, and should be read."

Earlier this month, a notice on the 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door' singer's website featured the text "WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE" in a piece promoting a book of his lyrics, however it was later removed.

If Bob does decide to attend the event, he will appear in Stockholm, Sweden, on December 10.

Kim Kardashian returns to social media

Kim Kardashian West has returned to social media for the first time since she was robbed at gunpoint. 









Kim Kardashian West has returned to social media for the first time she endured a horrific ordeal in 

Paris when she was robbed at gunpoint in her apartment and had around $10 million worth of jewellery taken from her.

The 36-year-old reality star endured a horrific ordeal in Paris, France, last month when she was tied up by masked men in her apartment and had $10 million worth of jewellery stolen, but after nearly a month away from social networking she returned to Facebook to promote her LuMee phone cases. 

Attached to a picture of herself relaxing while on her phone, complete with one of the light-up cases, she wrote: "Downtime #LumeeCollab."

Kim also shared a piece from her website by her friend Steph Shep on last-minute Halloween costume ideas, and uploaded another link to her site of a post from sister Kourtney Kardashian containing old videos of the pair dressed up for Halloween during their younger years. 

She wrote: "From Kourtney Kardashian - Love these old videos!"

Kim's last Facebook post came in the early hours of October 3, the day she was robbed, when she shared a picture of herself and sister Kourtney out and about in the French capital. 

She captioned the image: "Kourtney and Kim Take Paris"

The raven-haired beauty is known to be an avid user of social media but has taken nearly a month off all of her channels following her devastating ordeal in the capital city. 

Kim's last posts to her 86.2 million Instagram followers came four weeks ago when she shared a number of pictures of herself at the Balenciaga fashion show at Paris Fashion Week. 

What's more, she hasn't shared a Twitter post with her 48.8 million followers since October 2. 

She wrote: "Hey guys! Meet my #KimKardashianGame character at the So Chic Boutique in Downtown LA for a surprise ;)"

The star also appeared on a short seven-second clip inviting her friends to go onto her game and then meet her at the boutique for a "special surprise". 

The star has rarely been seen out and about since her Paris ordeal and is expected to miss out on appearing at the Angel Ball, an annual cancer research fundraiser to honour her late father Robert Kardashian - who died of the disease in 2003 - at Cipriani Wall Street in New York on November 21.

A publicist for the event said: "Kim is not expected to attend at this time."

But Kim - who has children North, three, and Saint, 10 months, with husband Kanye West - did attend the rapper's show in Los Angeles last week.

Halle Berry: I'm in a good place

Halle Berry is feeling happier than ever following her split from Olivier Martinez
Halle Berry says she is "in a good place" and is feeling happier than ever following her split from Olivier Martinez.

The 'Extant' star says she is "in a good place once again" despite ending her relationship to the actor, although she has been spotted spending time with him and their three-year-old son Maceo as of late.

She said: "I just feel happy, you know? I've arrived at a really good place once again, that's always good news.

"Down time, dark times, don't last forever - the sun is out again and it feels great."

And the 50-year-old actress - who also has Nahla, eight, with her ex-partner Gabriel Aubry - enjoyed celebrating her milestone birthday in August with a small party for her close family and friends.

Asked how she spent her birthday, she added to Extra: "Privately. It was very small. I've never had a birthday party, so it wasn't a big extravaganza; it's not how I do it. I was with my family, people I loved, it was a really good day. I've never defined myself by that number, so it was a really good day."

Meanwhile, the mother-of-two previously revealed she feels "blessed" to be 50.

Captioning a photo of herself, she wrote: "With open arms I welcome 50. I'm so blessed to be here!"

And though she isn't worried about getting older, she admits she does feel "pressure" to have cosmetic surgery.

She said: "It is pressure. When you see everybody around you doing it, you have those moments when you think, 'To stay alive in this business, do I need to do the same thing?' I won't lie and tell you that those things don't cross my mind, because somebody is always suggesting it to me. It's almost like crack that people are trying to push on you. That's what I feel like."

Anna Kendrick: I was too poor to buy shoes for my first Oscars

Anna Kendrick couldn't afford to buy shoes for her first Academy Awards
Whilst Anna Kendrick is a household name now, she admits she couldn't afford to buy shoes for her first Academy Awards back in 2009.

The 'Accountant' star has revealed that when she was fairly unknown in 2009, no designers offered to loan her a pair of shoes for the Oscars so her stylist asked her to buy her own.

Speaking on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, she said: "My stylist told me I had to wear the perfect shoes for an outfit, and because the movie isn't out yet, nobody really knows who you are. 'The shoe places don't want to loan you the shoes so can you buy a pair?'

"I was like, 'I'm still poor.' So it was this weird combination of like all these great things are happening but at the same time nothing has changed so, it was a weird dichotomy."

Meanwhile, the 31-year-old actress is no doubt glad that acting worked out for her as she previously revealed she never had "a backup plan."

She shared: "I got some terrible advice when I was really young, which was not to have a backup plan. I had this singularity of focus. I never considered doing something else."

And Anna recently admitted she would like to take a six month break from acting one day.

She added: "It's hard to take a step back and see if there's something I should be doing differently. At some point I'll have to take a good six months off and not make movies.

"But working for 14 hours a day for months at a time is not sustainable. Not being on a set means you can explore the world and enrich your life. It'd probably be wise to invest in those things."

Khloé Kardashian 'despises' leaving the house

Khloé Kardashian "despises" leaving the house
Khloé Kardashian has revealed she "despises" leaving the house and prefers to relax at home with her boyfriend Tristan Thompson.

The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star has revealed she prefers to just "chill in the house" and try out new recipes in the kitchen rather than go out.

She said: "I despise leaving the house. I'm really, like, a mellow person. I do like to just chill in the house. I like to cook.

"On Sundays, I normally try to cook something I haven't cooked before, so I just made all of these preserved jams. The other day I made homemade pretzels. I [also] made doughnuts for the first time. I try to do things I've never done, but because of my mother, I'm actually a really good cook. My mom used to make me cook starting really young and so I think I could cook, like, anything and I love that."

And the 32-year-old television personality also enjoys laid back nights in with her boyfriend Tristan Thompson.

She told Us Weekly magazine: "I'm a homebody, so for me it's just, like, chill and watching TV and having a drink. It's like intimate one-on-one time ... I'm more of an at-home person.

"[We like to] just chill at home. That's really what we do, mellow. We're not that exciting. I feel like people think I'm, like, wild and like hanging from chandeliers."

Meanwhile, Khloé previously admitted she has a wine fridge in her bedroom.

She said: "I'm prepared 24/7! I like to set a certain ambience in my house, so I have specific candles that are lit every day, morning to night. I have a wine fridge in my bedroom and also a mini fridge that I keep stocked with water, too. Don't want my man to get dehydrated, honey!"

How can Rob Kardashian have 'trust issues'

Rob Kardashian is "very insecure in his relationship" with Blac Chyna
Rob Kardashian is reportedly worried his fiancée Blac Chyna will cheat on him and is "very insecure in their relationship".

The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star - who is expecting a baby with Chyna - is reportedly suffering from trust issues when it comes to their relationship.

A source told People magazine: "He is very insecure in his relationship with Chyna.

"They've had many instances and fights in which he accuses or suspects that she's cheated. His issues with trusting girlfriends are deep-rooted."

Meanwhile, the 29-year-old television personality is also insecure about his weight.

He confessed recently: "I do not want to go to Cannes anyways. Even when I was in the best shape of my entire life, I still had an insecurity with my weight.

"On top of that, there's paparazzi people that follow me and take pictures of me and that shuts me down to not wanting to go out when I'm obviously not feeling my best. I'm not comfortable in my skin, I'm not comfortable with this weight. So I feel like I'm not happy with anything I do right now."

However, Rob's mother Kris Jenner is confident that her son will be able to put his weight troubles behind him.

She shared: "Any time you get down on yourself, it's always a process to get back on top of it. And Rob has always been so athletic, he was the star track guy in high school and a basketball player, and he was the runner up after 20-whatever weeks on Dancing With the Stars, and dancing live in front of 40 million people or whatever it was ...

"He's been such an amazing athlete and in such great shape and very athletic his whole life, so this is not in his comfort zone. This isn't something he's experienced, so it's hard. It's hard for him to get the weight off like it is for any of us, so he's definitely been challenged by this. He'll work through it. I really have faith in him. He's just gotta put his mind to it."

Amy Schumer: 'Jay Z and Beyonce approved Formation video'

Amy Schumer insists Beyoncé and Jay Z approved her 'Formation' parody
Amy Schumer insists Beyoncé and Jay Z approved her 'Formation' video and she is adamant it was not a parody.

The 35-year-old comedian and co-star Goldie Hawn caused controversy when a video appeared on Tidal of them singing and dancing along to 

Beyoncé's 'Formation' in a jungle and Amy insists she never intended for it to be a parody but sees it as a "celebration of women".

Insisting that Jay Z and Beyoncé were supportive, she wrote on Medium: "If you watched it and it made you feel anything other than good, please know that was not my intention. The movie we made is fun and the women in it are strong and want to help each other. That's what it was about for me. Of course I had Beyoncé and Jay Z's approval. They released it on Tidal exclusively for the first 24 hours.

"It was NEVER a parody. It was just us women celebrating each other. The video Beyoncé made was so moving and I wouldn't ever make fun of that. There is absolutely no way to."

Beyoncé and Jay Z are co-owners of Tidal, along with a number of other high-profile celebrities.

Beyoncé's 'Formation' video addresses police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement and Amy was slammed for her 'Get in Formation' video, which sees her copy Beyonce's dance moves, along with Goldie, Joan Cusack, Wanda Sykes and Raven Goodwin.

She added: "I did not mean to detract any of the meaning from the video. I am of course horrified and sickened by the events that are addressed throughout that video and didn't see this as minimising that and still don't."

Kris Jenner banned Kylie Jenner from surgery

Kris Jenner wouldn't allow Kylie Jenner to get reconstructive surgery when she was a teenager
Kris Jenner would never allow Kylie Jenner to get reconstructive surgery when she was a teenager.

The 19-year-old 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star has quashed speculation she has gone under the knife to define her cheek and jaw line, a rumour which she has been plagued with since she was 16 years old, insisting her 60-year-old momager would never have consented to the cosmetic procedure if she had of asked for permission.

Speaking on her website thekyliejenner.com, she said: "No I didn't [have cheek surgery].People started saying that when I was 16. 

"You really think Kris Jenner would let a 16 year old me have cheek and jaw reconstructive surgery? No. "

And the reality star has revealed she "always" loved her jaw and "never" felt any need to change it, but her lip fillers are the reason her facial feature looks different. 

She explained: "I always used to love my jaw. I was never self-conscious about my jaw, but before I got my lips done, my lips were very tiny and more like sunken into my chin.

"Someone made a meme of me on the internet of me that I was the Crimson Chin. And me and [my friend] Stas have been laughing about it for about six years. But now that I have big-ass lips, it looks normal." 

And the teen entrepreneur has contemplated about having breast enlargement, but has swiftly discarded the idea because she likes the "cute little size" of her assets.

She explained: "I've thought about it [boob job] and I think 'Why ruin it?' I have really good boobs naturally. They're like a cute little size. I'm not against it but right now, it's a no from me. 

"No ass implants, no ass implants." 

Meanwhile, Kylie - who is the youngest of the Kardashian/Jenner gang - has revealed she "doesn't try to compete" with her older sibling Kim Kardashian West. 

Speaking about her 36-year-old sister, she said: "I don't try to compete with Kim to be the hottest sister. 

"I mean I think all my sisters are hot, but Kim's got the crown, Kim's so cute and sexy. I never compete with my sisters."

Why Lady Gaga didn't want to do a David Bowie tribute

Lady Gaga felt "uncomfortable" paying tribute to David Bowie at the Grammy Awards
Lady Gaga has revealed she didn't want to do her David Bowie tribute at the Grammy Awards, as it was "so soon" after the star's death.

The 30-year-old pop star performed a heartfelt medley of the late singer's hits at the awards show back in February, but has admitted she didn't want to do it when she was first asked, because it was "so soon" after the 'Jean Genie' star's death from cancer in January.

She said: "I really did not want to do it when they first called me because it was so soon after [Bowie's death] and I felt very uncomfortable, but I did my very best to put together something that I hoped would be the showstopper of the night."

The tribute hailed mixed reviews, not least from Duncan Jones - the only son of the 'Space Oddity' hitmaker - who posted a cryptic tweet after the performance in which he seemed to call Gaga "mentally confused". 

Duncan, 45, wrote: ""overexcited or irrational, typically as a result of infatuation or excessive enthusiasm; mentally confused." Damn it! What IS that word!? (sic)"

The tweet was actually comprised of the Oxford English Dictionary's definition of the word 'gaga'. 

Speaking in the latest issue of NME Magazine, the 'Perfect Illusion' singer admits that the comments by the BAFTA-winning filmmaker "hurt" her.

She told the publication: "Yeah. It did. It did hurt. But what are you going to do? I can't... it's his father, you know?"

But the Bowie tribute almost didn't happen at all, as the 'Bad Romance' singer - who has recently released her new album 'Joanne' - revealed she almost quit the music industry after 2013's 'Artpop'.

She said: I was just having a really depressed time in my life where wasn't able to see my own ability or my own talent.

"And when you lose grasp of those sorts of things, you can just spiral. 

"But you know, to the world 'quitting music' means one thing and to me its means another. I meant to giving putting out music, as opposed to just doing it for myself, which what makes me really and truly happy."

Kim Kardashian's apology to Kris Jenner

Kim Kardashian West has apologised to Kris Jenner for styling Caitlyn Jenner for the EPSY awards
Kim Kardashian West has apologised to Kris Jenner for styling Caitlyn Jenner for the EPSY awards.

The 60-year-old matriarch branded her daughter as a "traitor" for agreeing to help her stepparent - who was known as

Bruce while married to Kris before undergoing a gender transition - in Sunday's (23.10.16) episode of 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians', so 35-year-old Kim quickly organised an extravagant way to say sorry.

In the footage of the original confrontation - which was first shown in a promotional clip ahead of the episode - Kris said: "Kim, you are a f***ing traitor. That you would have the nerve to go to help Caitlyn to pick a gown -- like, what is going on?

"...You abandoned me! You've taken somebody else and said, 'OK her feelings don't matter.'"

To apologise for bringing her momager to tears over the event, Kim - who has two children of her own, three-year-old North, and Saint, 10 months, with husband Kanye West - and her sister Khloé Kardashian organised a lunch in the penthouse suite at the Beverley Wilshire Hotel where Kris' favourite movie 'Pretty Woman' was shot.

Kim told her mother: "We wanted you to have a fun pampered day as an apology. I would just never want you to feel betrayed."

Whilst Khloé added: "Kim wanted you to experience your favourite movie."

Kris accepted her daughter's apology, and explained that going through the divorce and Caitlyn's subsequent transition has been "challenging".

She said: "I don't even have anybody to talk to that's been through anything similar. I don't really think about it day to day, but for some reason, that hit me the wrong way.

"Going through this whole process with Caitlyn has been challenging. I finally was feeling what I needed to feel for so many years."

After the trio wrapped their lunch, Khloé and Kim decided to take their mother shopping to end their 'Pretty Woman'-themed day.

Kris said: "You guys are the best. Thank you!"

Love of Divorce Liam Payne parties in Las Vegas after girlfriend Cheryl finalises divorce

Liam Payne has spent a night partying in Las Vegas after his girlfriend Cheryl Fernandez-Versini finalised her divorce
Liam Payne has spent a night partying in Las Vegas after his girlfriend Cheryl Fernandez-Versini finalised her divorce.

The 23-year-old singer was spotted celebrating in the VIP section of a DJ Zedd show in Sin City over the weekend, just a few days after the 'Only Human' hitmaker's separation from Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini was made official.

Taking to Instagram to post a selfie before the show, the One Direction singer wrote: "It's about to get lit #vegas (sic)"

In another photo posted after the event, he wrote: "Great fun tonight impromptu sing along with my brother @zedd let's get it #vegas (sic)"

The 'History' hitmaker - who is rumoured to be expecting his first child with Cheryl - was pictured at the event enjoying drinks and dancing along to the music whilst he chatted to the girls who stood around him. 

The news of Liam's party mood comes after Cheryl, 33, finalised her divorce from the French restaurateur after 18 months of marriage.

The former couple were granted a quickie divorce on Thursday (20.10.16) during a hearing that lasted just 14 seconds, after the judge at the Central Family Court in London handed them a decree nisi, which is a court order confirming the date on which a marriage will end.

A representative for Cheryl said in a statement: "Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini have today obtained Decree Nisi in their divorce proceedings. No further comment will be made and they ask for their privacy to be respected."

The pair tied the knot in a secret ceremony on Macaroni Beach in Mustique in July 2014, just three months after they started dating, and the former Girls Aloud musician first announced their split in January this year.

The former 'X Factor' judge has been dating Liam - who has recently started recording material for his debut solo album - for almost a year, and fellow talent show judge Louis Walsh has said the pair will last.

He said previously: "Can I be honest with you about Cheryl? I think Liam and Cheryl are going to work... He's a nice guy and he's in love with her. He'll make her happy."

Azealia Banks wants to work with Zayn Malik

Azealia Banks wants to collaborate with Zayn Malik
'212' hitmaker Azealia Banks has revealed she wants to collaborate with Zayn Malik.

The '212' hitmaker recently apologised to Zayn for an expletive-laden Twitter tirade she launched against the former One Direction star earlier this year, and has now revealed she would be open to working him in the studio.

She shared: "I definitely would love to collaborate with Zayn. From here, I watched the Naughty Boy thing and I have always seen where he's going. 

"He's definitely helped him get that sound, that sound that's different but still cool, very relevant but it's different and it's new and special - which is something I think I do very well."

Azealia recently penned an open letter to Zayn in which she said sorry for her Twitter tirade - and she's now explained why it was important to be so public with her apology.

She told MailOnline: "I actually apologised a couple of times, but I don't think it got through to people. I think when the situation was still so fresh, people weren't just not wanting to hear it.

"I guess I didn't give the apology I thought people could really hear because there was just so much going on.

"And now that the coast is clear, I thought, 'Let me tell you guys again what I meant, I'm very sorry'."

The 25-year-old star also said that apologising was the first step towards her forgiving herself for the episode.

She said: "It's just with all this stuff that's happening with me. I can't be involved in this type of [controversy]. It's definitely overshadowed my music and definitely pushed unnecessary drama onto my life.

"I may have just got carried away and whatever the excuse is, it was uncalled for and I just needed to apologise so I could begin forgiving myself for it."
