Hef’s runaway bride, Crystal Harris, 25, told radio shock jock Howard Stern on July 26, 2011 that she had never seen the 85 year-old magazine mogul naked, and that their sex life left a lot to be desired.

Harris, who left Hefner and his Playboy Mansion five days before their planned June 18 wedding, claimed the pair only had sex once during their two-year relationship, and that it lasted “like about two seconds.”

I can believe the latter, he is 85 after all but as for the rest of her story ‘yeah right?!’

Actor Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johanssen didn’t waste any time getting over each other. The couple divorced late last year and only a few months after Johanssen was rumoured to be dating veteran actor Sean Penn.

The relationship between Penn and Johanssen swiftly ended and it looks like she has moved on to Hangover star Justin Bartha. According to New York Post. Scarlett was spotted at Bartha’s Broadway show ‘All new people’

Sources told New York Post that they “seemed ‘completely engrossed in each other’” during a cast dinner for the production.

More from a source about ScarJo and Justin’s behavior at the cast dinner:

“There were about 15 people at the table, but Scarlett and Justin sat next to each other and talked all night.

“They seemed pretty fascinated with each other and only talked to each other. It looked sometimes flirty, but also they seemed to be involved in a deep discussion.”

Scarlett’s ex-husband Ryan Reynolds is rumoured to be going out with our beau Charlize Theron.The  two have been seen together several times.

People Magazine published images of them arriving together at LAX airport together after a flight. US Magazine reports that Ryan’s motorbike has been spotted  parked outside Charlize’s house.

This is the first relationship that Charlize has had since ending the  nine year relationship with Stuart Townsend.

Singer, diva and American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez and her musician husband of seven years, Marc Anthony, have split and are headed for a divorce! The split comes after the couple’s seventh wedding anniversary, which was on June 5th.

J.Lo and Marc released a joint statement about the shock split to E! News last Friday (15.07.11) which reads:

“We have decided to end our marriage. This was a very difficult decision. We have come to amicable conclusion on all matters. It is a painful time for all involved and we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time”

While the split comes as a shock to most fans, J. Lo’s friends admit that the couple had a roller coaster marriage.

A source told usmagazine.com: “They had a very up and down marriage, they would get into heated, horrible fights. Then, they would also go through times where they were extremely loving and romantic. It was a roller coaster with them from the beginning.”

Another friend told People.com that the couple tried to fix their marriage, especially J.Lo who reportedly  “tried everything she could to make it work,” but not even therapy sessions helped.”

And another added “They went to marriage counseling. She was patient and loving and did everything he wanted her to. She exhausted all the possibilities.She is devastated. Absolutely beside herself. This is someone she dedicated a long time to, and that she truly loved.”

44-year-old Grammy-Award-Winning singer/ songwriter, Robert S. Kelly hasn’t made mortgage payments on his multi-million-dollar Chicago mansion since June 2010. And now he may possibly lose the property.

According to reports, JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. filled a foreclosure lawsuit against him last month. The document states that R. Kelly hasn’t made monthly payments on his 11,000-square-foot home for almost a year now.

The suit states that the principle balance on the loan was more than $2.9million, excluding unpaid interest which accrues at rate of $251 a day. According to the lawsuit, R.Kelly’s original loan was issued in 1999 for $3.5 million and his monthly payments were $24,345.12.

Her tribute tattoo also comes after Wiz stood by her during a nude pics scandal that saw her lose a modeling contract.

Earlier this month, pornographic photographs of Amber Rose circulated the web after she reportedly sent the images to Nicki Minaj’s then-boyfriend Safaree. But Amber Rose claims that he sent them to himself after discovering them on her computer.

The crazy in love couple is rumoured to be engaged after Wiz Khalifa posted a picture on his website of himself at one of his concerts, on bended knees with his arms wrapped around Amber with a caption that read ” I can’t say it or show it enough how much I love this woman”

2010/2011 hasn’t been kind to Megan Fox. First she was replaced by Rosie-Huntington-Whiteley in the new Transformers movie and now Rihanna is taking her place as the new face (and body) of Armani’s autumn/winter underwear and jeans campaign.

Rihana got the rumour mills running before it was announced when she tweeted:  “U would NEVER guess what I’m doing right now!!! Hint Hint #Armani”. But today it was made official. The curvaceous Barbadian beauty will star in the Armani campaigns this autumn.

Judging by her on stage antics, Riri will fill Megan’s pants with ease. In a recent Vogue cover spread Rhianna said ”I realized that I actually like my body, I just feel sexy. For the first time, I don’t want to get rid of the curves. My body is comfortable, and it’s not unhealthy, so I’m going to rock with it.”

Why the Beckhams named their daughter ‘Harper Seven’

By Fifi | 11 July 2011

It looks like Hollywood celebs have a penchant for giving their babies strange names. The kind of names that would get their children teased at school if they were just ordinary people.

When I first heard that the Beckhams had welcomed a baby girl, I just couldn’t wait to hear the name. I was expecting something out of the ordinary, but Harper Seven is just too eccentric, especially considering that the Beckhams other children are named Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz.

But then I started thinking about the possible significance behind this name that sounds a lot like ‘Half Past Seven’.

Harper Seven Beckham was was born at 7.55 on a Sunday morning (7th day of the week ) in the 7th month of the year at the weight of 7lbs 10oz.

Maybe the Beckham’s believe that number 7 is their lucky number. It was David’s jersey number during his glory days at Man United and at the age of 37 Victoria welcomes the baby girl she’s always wanted.

The Beckhams celebrate the arrival of their fourth child and first daughter after three sons.

Former Spice Girl and yummy mummy, Victoria gave birth to a baby girl, named Harper Seven (sounds too close to Half Past Seven don’t you think?), on Sunday morning at Cedars Sinai hospital in Los Angeles.

In a statement on his Facebook page, David Beckham said: “I am so proud and excited to announce the birth of our daughter Harper Seven Beckham.

“She weighed a healthy 7lbs 10oz and arrived at 7.55 this morning, here in LA. Victoria is doing really well and her brothers are delighted to have a baby sister xx

The Beckhams, who married in 1999, already have three boys – Brooklyn, 11, Romeo, 8, and Cruz, 5.
