  • Williams ends fued with Barlow

    Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow have finally ended their 11 year feud.

    The former Take That bandmates put their differences behind them at a reunion organised by Robbie at a London hotel.

    A source revealed: "Robbie looked a bit nervous waiting for the boys.

    "He was sat on his own at the bar in a black hooded jumper.

    "When Gary went through Robbie stood up and they both laughed and hugged, Gary said. 'How are you? It's been a while'."

    Gary - accompanied by the rest of the group, Jason Orange, Mark Owen and Howard Donald - rushed to the emotional meeting with the 'Let Me Entertain You' singer after a sell-out concert at London's Wembley Arena.

    During their late night meeting - the first time the band have all been together since they split in 1995 - it is believed the group also discussed the possibility of Robbie joining the foursome on stage during their tour.

    Teri Hatcher has at last put an end to speculation that she had a relationship with George Clooney.

    Speaking on The Oprah Winfrey Show, the Desperate Housewives star said, "We went to one dinner back in December, and that was it," she explained. "No kissing. Boy, the press would not let go of that one. Now they actually refer to him as my ex-boyfriend. It’s hilarious."

  • Leinart Snapped Leaving Paris' House

    Matt Leinart was snapped exiting Paris Hilton's Hollywood Hills house Wednesday morning with his jeans and shirt rolled up in his hand after partying with the heiress the night before.

    A photographer who was there tells TMZ that the former USC football star left Hilton's residence in a hurry. We're told that Leinart looked around before hopping into a waiting Cadillac, which then drove in reverse until out of sight. Paris wasn't seen until a few hours later when she emerged from the house and drove off in her Bentley.

    The night before, the two were spotted at the Xbox 360 E3 party at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood. An eyewitness tells TMZ that the two were acting very "amorous" towards each other at the party.

  • Chappelle's Salty Wife

    -- Dave Chappelle is still explaining to his wife why he left his Comedy Central show and walked away from a $50 million contract.

    "My wife is still a little salty with me," Chappelle joked on NBC's "Late Night With Conan O'Brien" on Wednesday night. "She's not mad at me, but don't think you can walk away from $50 million and your wife is just going to be cool with it."

    In frequent TV appearances over the past few months, the comedian has repeatedly defended his sudden departure last year from the popular and lucrative "Chappelle's Show."

    With humor and candor, Chappelle, 32, has laughed at claims that he's "crazy," and said he had doubts about how racial elements of his show were received.

    He has since returned to performing standup and released the concert documentary, "Block Party."

  • Rodriguez Doesn't Like Forced Labor

    Michelle Rodriguez chose a prison sentence over community service because she hates the idea of compulsory work. The actress, who plays Ana Lucia on the hit show, chose jail instead of 240 hours community service after being convicted of drunk-driving in Hawaii last month. She spent 65 hours behind bars.

    But Rodriguez is adamant that doing time was far preferable to forced labor, despite admitting she has no qualms about doing good deeds.

    She says, "If I'm gonna do something for the community, I need to do that on my own accord. I don't like being told to do things for the community. I'd rather be in jail for a few days than be told what to do for a month."

  • Jackson Works Off The Pounds

    Janet Jackson has undergone a punishing fitness regime in a bid to regain her svelte physique. The singer deliberately piled on the pounds for a possible movie role, according to her boyfriend Jermaine Dupre.

    But Jackson is fed up of her flab and, while she insists she isn't under contract to lose weight, she couldn't wait to get slim in time to promote new album 20 Years Old. Dupre says, "She was gaining weight for a potential movie."

    A spokesperson for Jackson says, "It is not a requirement of her contract to lose weight."

  • Aniston Buys Vince Vaughn Boxers

    Jennifer Aniston has purchased "more than two dozen pairs" of boxers for her beau Vince Vaughn at the popular retail chain Banana Republic a published report claims. The entertainment gossips will immediately let their minds turn to the idea that the pair are trying for a baby.

    Boxer over briefs for sperm count - right? And Jennifer was on record late last year as saying she wants to start a family by the end of this year. As the calendar has turned to May - if that is indeed still the American beauty's goal perhaps the boxers were a good choice.

    But the item comes from 'In Touch Weekly' and the report details that Jennifer purchased the boxers because she like the way he looks in them - not for procreation.

    "Jen finds boxers very sexy on a man," an insider tells the magazine. "She thinks they look great and now that Vince has been losing weight and is looking good, she thought it would be fun to get him some new shorts."

    According to the report - a pal of Vince confirmed the purchase as he hates to shop. The pal also says Vince was thrilled with the gift from his girl.

  • Katie's Parents Had to Wait

    Katie's parents, Martin and Kathleen Holmes, didn’t get to see baby Suri up close and personal until the day of the "Mission: Impossible 3" premiere in Los Angeles.

    That would have been May 4. Suri was born in the late afternoon on April 17.

    You do the math, fans. That's two and a half weeks. The Holmeses were specifically not invited until Tom was back home in Los Angeles after his worldwide promotional tour and could monitor the baby’s first visit with her maternal grandparents.

    Tom’s mother, Mary Jo Mapother-South, was there for the delivery. So were Tom’s sisters. But, as widely reported, the Holmeses were at their vacation home in Florida when they got the news that their daughter had given birth to their first grandchild.

    “They are heartbroken,” says the source who filled me in on this.

    But no one who’s interviewed Cruise for "MI:3" has dared asked about his relationship with Katie's parents.

    Instead, they’ve let Cruise refer to Katie as “Kate” and do all the talking for her. The Holmeses are scared to speak out, say friends, for fear that they will be cut off even more from Katie and Suri.
