The end of a busy week in showbiz...


It's all over for George Clooney and his girlfriend of one year, Sarah Larson. At one point it looked like the world's most famous bachelor was ready to settle down: Sarah was the actor's first ever girlfriend to accompany him to the Oscars this February! But friends of 29 year-old Sarah have confirmed the split and the former cocktail waitress has moved out of George's LA home.



Surprise, surprise Pete and Ashlee Wentz have confirmed they are indeed expecting their first child. The newly married couple announced their news on Pete's website: "While many have speculated about this, we wanted to wait until after the first trimester to officially confirm that we are expecting our first child. This is truly the most joyous time in our lives and we are excited to share the happy news and start our family." 




It's fair to say there have been some messy break-ups in celeb history, but Bill Murray's could break records if his wife's divorce papers are anything to go by! Jennifer Butler Murray, Bill's wife of more than 10 years, is not only seeking to dissolve the marriage but also wants a restraining order against her estranged husband. According to court papers Jennifer has blamed Bill's addictions to alcohol, marijuana and sex for the break down of their marriage. 




And to round the week up Naomi Campbell has been formerly charged with assaulting a police officer, using threatening behaviour towards cabin crew and disorderly conduct. The incident happened at Heathrow Airport in April when the model threw a wobbler after her luggage went missing. Naomi has been in trouble plenty of times because of her aggressive behaviour, doesn't she learn?

The news worth knowing this week...



Lindsay Lohan
’s ‘close’ relationship with DJ Smantha Ronson has been attracting a lot of attention recently, especially after the pair were seen kissing at last weeks Cannes festival. Now Lindsay’s father has spoken out saying it’s ‘evident to anyone with half a brain’ that the girls are more than just friends…mmm, publicity stunt or true love??? Only time will tell…





Kirsten Dunst has spoken out about why she entered rehab earlier this year. The Spiderman actress has denied reports that she had troubles with drink and drugs but actually needed time out due to depression: "I was struggling, and I had the opportunity to go somewhere and take care of myself," the 26 year-old says, "I was fortunate to have the resources to do it. My friends and family thought it was a good idea, too."





Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has reportedly earned $126m in it’s opening weekend. I saw the film myself and must admit I was disappointed: although Harrison Ford still looks good I felt he’d forgotten Indie’s mannerisms a bit and the producers could have taken more advantage of today’s special effects, but what really ruined the film for me was the aliens! Its still worth a watch but I give it 6/10





Kate Hudson sure doesn’t stay single for long! She’s been seen canoodling with Lance Armstrong, aka Sheryl Crow’s cancer-beating, bike-riding ex-fiance. Over the weekend the new couple made several outings together…Kate’s relationship with Owen Wilson only just ended so hopefully he’s not taking this news too badly.




Brad and Angelina seem serious about basing their family in France, the couple have just bought a chateau in the French Riviera worth a reported £35 million! The Brangelina clan will soon include six children when Angie gives birth to twins in August. But mean while little Shiloh celebrated her second birthday this week, so happy birthday to her!






And finally…Madonna has at last adopted baby David after a Malawi judge made the ruling earlier today. Although David has been living with the Richie’s since 2006 the adoption has only just been made official.

At least long-time couple Jamie and Lousie Redknapp seem to be going strong - the former Eternal singer and her footballer hubby are expecting their second child! This is particularly good news as it took them four years to become pregnant with their three-year-old son Charley.

Scarlett Johansson’s designer friend has congratulated the actress on her recent engagement - Roland Mouret has said he was so happy when she told him the news and added that "it's something she's really wanted – to meet someone and get married."
