Pippa Middleton to take part in 'biggest cross-country ski race in the world' with brother James

Pippa Middleton has signed up to compete in a gruelling ski race in Sweden.

The Duchess of Cambridge's sister is taking part in the annual Vasaloppet cross-country ski race to raise money to fight children’s hunger.

With her brother James, Pippa will be among nearly 16,000 competitors taking part in the 55 mile race on Sunday.

'It’s really fantastic that such well known people will take part; it shows that our arrangements attract not only the most renowned skiers in the world but also some of the most famous personalities in the world as well!

'Everyone does it because it’s a challenge and achievement to ski Vasaloppet.'

Pippa, an avid athlete, is raising money for a child hunger charity.

She wrote on her JustGiving.com donation website: 'My brother and I are raising money for Magic Breakfast, a small registered charity that fights child hunger through breakfast clubs and delivering free breakfasts (bagels, cereal, juice and porridge) to thousands of state primary school children in the UK particularly our inner cities.'

Vasaloppet is an annual long-distance cross-country ski race held on the first Sunday of March in Sweden between the village of Salen and Mora. 

It is one of the oldest, one of the longest and considered the biggest cross-country ski race in the world.

The first trailer for "The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn Part II" will be revealed in front of much awaited "The Hunger Games".

 The first trailer for "The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn Part II" will be revealed in a foreseeable future. Lionsgate Films confirmed that the anticipated sneak peek of the final installment from the "Twilight Saga" film series is set to be screened in front of none other than much awaited "The Hunger Games".

In an announcement on Friday, Feburary 10, Lionsgate's chief executiveJon Feltheimer said, " 'The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn Part II' trailer will debut exclusively on every 'Hunger Games' print on its opening night for what will be Lionsgate's largest release ever." The strategy was made to gain a massive base of Twi-hards to the opening weekend of "HungerGames", which will arrive in the U.S. theaters on March 23.

Breaking dawn Part 2

During the Friday conference call with analysts, Feltheimer shared that he was confident the combo of "Breaking Dawn II" and "Hunger Games" will generate "highly visible" gross for the studio. He said, "Now we have a strong pipeline of young-adult franchises."

Meanwhile, former Summit Entertainment president Rob Friedman said during the call that a sixth "Twilight" film is possible to happen, but it is only if authoress Stephenie Meyer comes out with another book. "It's totally in her hands," said Friedman.

"Breaking Dawn II", which will open in theaters nationwide on November 16, takes place after the birth of Bella and Edward's daughter Renesmee. The couple must now face a perilous chain of events that pits the Cullens and their allies against the Volturi, which is the fearsome council of vampire leaders.

Bill Condon returns as the helmer with Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner reprising their phenomenal roles as Bella, Edward and Jacob respectively.

U.S. Marine Kissing His Boyfriend

Blogger Joe. My. God. quotes Brandon Morgan, the Marine in the photo, as saying:

 To everyone who has responded in a positive way. My partner and I want to say thank you. Dalan, the giant in the photo, can't believe how many shares and likes we have gotten on this. We didn't do this to get famous,or something like that we did this cause after 3 deployments and four years knowing each other, we finally told each other how we felt. As for the haters, let em hate...to quote Kat Williams, everyone needs haters, so let them hate. We are the happiest we have ever been and as for the whole PDA and kissing slash hugging in uniform...it was a homecoming, if the Sergeants Major, Captains, Majors, and Colonels around us didn't care...then why do you care what these random people have to say? In summation thank you for your love and support. I received a lot of friend requests off this. I don't just accept requests so if your request was because of this post message me and let me know. Goodnight all, and Semper Fi.

16-Year-Old Girl Is a Real-Life Barbie

Everyone meet Dakota (at least I think that’s her real name),  she’s a 16-year-old girl who goes byKotaKoti and looks a lot like a Barbie doll. Recently, photos of her have gone viral on several Asia and Arabic social sites because of her incredible resemblance to Barbie.

I stumbled upon some photos of KotaKoti while browsing a popular Vietnamese site for weird stories (yes, I do actually visit a lot Vietnamese sites, where else do you think I find all this crazy stuff) and was stunned by the resemblance between this girl and the popular Barbie doll. I mean, in some photos Iwas having trouble figuring out if she is actually a real person or just a life-size toy. I wasn’t able to find a lot of info on her, as she doesn’t seem to be as popular on western websites, and although she hasher very own blog, it doesn’t have an “About” page or anything like that.

 KotaKoti incredible resemblance to Barbie has made her very popular in countries like Japan and China, where she has been featured on several news stations. Considered a cosplayer by a lot of her fans, the 16-year-old says she dresses like this pretty much all the time and she doesn’t mind it when people look at her funny. I seriously think she should move to Japan, I bet they would worship he there.

Jennifer Lopez introduces boyfriend Casper Smart to her celebrity friends at Vanity Fair party

The 42-year-old introduced her 24-year-old backup dancer boyfriend to her A-list friends as she took him as her date to the Vanity Fair after-party following the awards.

The stunning singer nuzzled into her younger beau as the couple posed for pictures.

In return he tightly wrapped his arm around Jennifer's waist, looking like the cat that got the cream.

And it's no wonder why.

The fact that Jennifer has now introduced her younger boyfriend to the celebrity world is just another sign that things are getting more and more serious between the pair.

Meanwhile, Jennifer made an enormous impact at the Oscars this year.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s Baby: Beti B not Named Abhilasha, Confirms Amitabh Bachchan

There has been lots of speculation about the name of the daughter of Bollywood actors Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai.

At first, there were rumors that Beti B's name would be revealed on the Makar Sankranti day (an auspicious day for Indians). Then there were rumors that the newborn baby was named as Aaliya. Later, it was said that her name and first photo would be revealed on Oprah Winfrey show.

Now, there are rumors that Beti B is likely to be named Abhilasha!

The rumor began when Indian columnist and novelist Shobaa De tweeted Tuesday saying: "Beti B to be named Abhilasha?That's a stroke of genius. Well done, parents. Abhi and Ash. Truly inspired, if true."

However, Beti B's grandfather Amitabh Bachchan, who is currently undergoing treatment in a Mumbai hospital, has denied the report on Twitter by replying "not true ..." to Shobhaa De's tweet.

When Beti B was born, Abhishek Bachchan asked fans to suggest name for the newborn baby that would start with "A". Later there were rumors that Beti B was named Aaliya, but Abhishek denied that rumor saying, "No, that's not what we have named her."

Aishwarya rai Bachchan

"We've got a name, and I'll announce it very soon, but in terms of releasing a photograph you know I... if people see her in everyday life that's fine by me, but I just think releasing the photograph is a very pompous thing to do. We don't believe in any ceremony in terms of naamkaran," Abhishek said in a statement released at a forum where he was a guest speaker.

However, it looks like that people are positive about the name because it consists of both parents' names- Ash and Abhi!

Many people have retweeted De's cryptic tweet which does not specifically confirm the news. 

Russell Brand Spotted Publicly dating with new girlfriend Oriela Medellin Amieiro

While most of his contemporaries were out enjoying pre Oscar parties, Russell Brand was busy shopping with his new girlfriend.

The 36-year-old comedian was spotted stepping out with Oriela Medellin Amieiro, publicly for the first time, yesterday, in West Hollywood, California.

The new couple were seen leaving the Crystalarium shop in what is the first major sign that the former Lothario is moving on from his failed marriage to Katy Perry.

Russell was again sporting his new style of dress and avoided wearing his trademark skinny black jeans for a pair of leg warmers and some baggy white pantaloons.

The bearded actor also wore a grey cardigan with a grey T-shirt which he teamed with a mediation bead necklace, sunglasses, and flip flops.

His girlfriend, Oriela, 25, was dressed in a black shirt with matching trousers and jacket and she also wore a meditation bead necklace.

The Mexican artist, who was first linked to Brand last week following his recent divorce from Katy, is said to have met the comedian at the yoga class they both regularly attend.

Oriela was then apparently seen leaving the comedian's apartment earlier this week after staying overnight.

The beauty has made a name for herself in the art world through her nude paintings, which can reach up to £4,500 each in sales.

On her website, Oriela describes her work as 'exploring feelings of guilt, sensuality, sexuality and repression from a woman's perspective.

However, when asked about the relationship by The Sun, Oriela remained coy and replied: 'I am not comfortable talking about this.'

Whitney Houston's secret 'son' Nick Gordon to get money

Whitney Houston's secret 'son', Nick Gordon, is set to get a share of her £20 million fortune, following her tragic death two weeks ago.

The 48-year-old singer - who died two weeks ago - took Nick Gordon into her home in Atlanta, Georgia, when he was a youngster to save him from his troubled background and while she never officially adopted him, she thought of him as her own.

Nick Gordon

Nick, 22 - who would call Whitney "Mom" - also became like a brother to the 'I Will Always Love You' hitmaker's 18-year-old daughter Bobbi Kristina.

And although Whitney - who battled drink and drug addiction - blew most of her fortune, she is believed to have left £20 million and her family say Nick will get a share.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "Nick was family, she loved him as much as any mother could love a child. If he is not written into her will and everything goes to Bobbi then it will only be because it was written before she took Nick into her family.

Nick Gordon

"If that's the case, Bobbi will make sure Nick is taken care of because it's what her mom would have wanted and he's like a brother."

Following Whitney's tragic death, Nick took to his twitter page to pay tribute to her.

He wrote: "Rest in peace. Thank you for all your support. The legend will always and forever live on."

Lady Gaga ‘scolded’ by dad for flipping middle finger at photographers

 Lady Gaga has revealed that her father, Joseph Germanotta, scolded her for making a rude gesture at a baseball match after she stuck her middle finger up at photographers.

Lady Gaga Crying

The 25-year-old singer was watching the New York Mets in 2010 when the incident took place.

 she revealed: "It was the first time in nearly two years that I was scolded by my father - partly for misbehaving in public and partly for attending a Mets game. But that's the beauty of baseball, isn't it? I was able to drown myself in so much whisky, beer and Italian sausage that after two years of touring the world I:

 (A) completely forgot that I was famous,

 (B) was completely wasted indeed, wearing my costume from the Telephone video and

 (C) am still confused how the paparazzi spotted me. What a lady."

Lady Gaga and Her Father Joseph Germanotta

 

Gaga also revealed how 2011 was a very up and down year for her but made her realise what she wants in life..

She wrote: "2011 was one of the most exciting and difficult years for me. I made an internal pact with myself when I put out 'Born This Way'. This time when I 'win' I want it to mean something."

Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart’s Romantic Pre-Oscar Party Date Revealed

Robert Pattinson 25 and Kristen Stewart 21 reportedly won't be attending the Oscars on Sunday, but that didn't stop them from attending a pre-Oscars party on Friday at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood.

The Twilight star were spotted in the rare outing together last night at the William Endeavor Morris Pre-Oscar Party in the upscale suburb of Brentwood, LosAngeles.

Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart pre-oscar datting

According to a report from Hollywood Life, several fans spotted Rob and Kristen, and some even tweeted about their excitement at spying the Twilight co-stars having fun and engaging in a bit of rarely seen PDA.

"And R-Patz and Kristen Stewart looked super super loved up at Chateau Marmont too. Like his short hair. Both chain smoking in a corner," one fan tweeted.

Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart pre-oscar datting

That's one of very few positive comments that have turned up with regard to Rob's newly close-shaven head. It seems most fans prefer the Twilight hunk with a bit more hair.

Do you suppose that even though rumors say Rob and Kristen won't  be attending the 2012 Academy Awards that they will surprise fans and show up on the red carpet after all? It certainly would be fun to see how they both dress and act toward one another on the red carpet if they do decide to show. Not typically very showy when it comes to PDA, Rob and Kristen are clearly very much in love, and seem to be finding it increasingly difficult to hide that fact from the public.

Celebrity Big Brother's Natasha Giggs and Kirk Norcross getting close!

Former Celebrity Big Brother housemates Natasha Giggs and Kirk Norcross have been spotted getting close with one another!

Sources close to the pair told the magazine that there’s “definitely chemistry”, but insisted that Natasha was still hoping to get back with husband Rhodri at the moment.

Natasha Giggs and Kirk Nircross

The Celebrity Big Brother star has revealed a string of nights out with Kirk caused a blazing row with the father of her children just before they were set to take a family holiday together.
Natasha has so far refused to shed light on the nature of her relationship with the former The Only Way Is Essex star, who she befriended while they were both on CBB.
But she has been spending more and more time with him and pictures of them linking hands during a boozy night out a fortnight ago sparked speculation they are growing close.

Natasha Giggs and Husban Rhodri

Natasha, 29, was reportedly set to fly out to Egypt with Rhodri, as well as their children Louis, five, and Liam, 10.

But she ended up going minus her estranged husband after they allegedly started arguing about Kirk, who she's had three 'fun' nights out with since the reality show ended.

Rhodri, who asked for a divorce when it emerged Natasha had been having an eight-year affair with his footballer brother Ryan Giggs, has moved back in to the family house.

And although they're sharing separate beds it was thought the getaway would spark up their romance again.

But Natasha has now reportedly opened up about the amount of fun she has with the Essex club promoter.

Chris Brown could face charges for snatching fan’s iPhone

 Chris Brown could be facing charges after he reportedly snatched a woman’s iPhone when she tried to take a picture of him outside a Miami Beach nightclub.

According to the police report, the 22-year-old singer reached through his Bentley window around 4 am Sunday and took the phone from the fan’s hands.

“B----, you ain’t going to put that on no website,” People magazine quoted him as telling the woman.

the LA District Attorney's Office is now keeping a close eye on Brown and is waiting to see what action, if any, the L.A. County Probation Department is taking.

Chris Brown

Brown is still on probation for beating his then girlfriend Rihanna in 2009 and any criminal charges could result in his probation being revoked and the singer being sent to prison for up to four years.

Meanwhile, RadarOnline reports today that Brown is telling friends he has done nothing wrong.

An insider told the website: 'Chris is hopeful that the evidence and the true facts of the case will result in no charges being made against him.

Woman who suffered

No charges have been filed yet as the case remains under investigation.

Chris is letting his lawyer, Mark Geragos, deal with the Florida State's Attorney's Office.' 

The source added: 'He will do whatever his attorney asks him to do. He is no longer in Miami, but if he needs to return for any reason, he certainly will. Chris has nothing to hide.'

“My prosecutors are currently speaking with witnesses and reviewing all of the materials supplied by Miami Beach Police,” Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle said.

“Only after these reviews have been completed would any type of action be considered or taken,” she said.

The Miami Beach police incident report provided by Christal Shanae Spann accuses the R and B star of “robbery by sudden snatching” outside the Cameo nightclub

Oscar winner Director kathy to make film on Osama bin laden

Kathryn Bigelow, director of the Oscar-winning war film "The Hurt Locker," is reportedly developing an action thriller about the U.S.-led hunt for Osama bin Laden.

The 60-year-old director's eagerly-awaited film, which is reportedly titled 'Zero Dark Thirty', is due for release in December this year, tells the story of the US Navy Seal team which trailed the notorious al-Qaeda leader before finally killing him, his aides and one of his sons in a night raid on his secret compound in the heart of a Pakistan army establishment town.

Its cast is set to include 'The Help' star Jessica Chastain, British actor Mark Strong, Aymen Hamdouchi and Kyle Chandler.

Kathryn Bigelow

The raid, which was carried out without the knowledge of the Pakistan army and government, caused widespread anger at the violation of the country's sovereignty and remains a source of anti-American feeling in the country.

The producers decided in the current security climate it would be impossible for them to film in Pakistan and looked for alternative locations.

The Associated Press quoted a person close to Bigelow and "The Hurt Locker" screenwriter Mark Boal as saying that the filmmakers are moving forward with the new film project. The two have not commented. Bigelow and Boal began developing a thriller said to be about bin Laden back in December 2010. Work on the project's script began in January.

"The Hurt Locker" tells of a U.S. bomb squad in Iraq in 2004 and stars Jeremy Renner. The film won six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, in 2010. Bigelow won the prize for Best Directing and Boal took home the award for Best Writing (Original Screenplay).

Bigelow is also known for directing the cult surfer crime film "Point Break," which stars Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves.

Osama Bin Laden

Bigelow and Boal are also working on a film tentatively titled "Triple Frontier," which centers on a group of men working in a border zone between Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil, which has been a suspected haven for organized crime and terrorists. Actors linked to the project, set for release in 2012, include Tom Hanks and Johnny Depp.

The "Triple Frontier" between the countries is difficult to monitor and control. In 2002, a year after the September 11 attacks, the area was dubbed "the center of Middle Eastern terrorism in South America." In 2006, the United States suspected Muslim members of its communities raised funds for terrorist organizations, including al-Qaeda.
