OHMYGOSSIP — Angelina Jolie allegedly banned her estranged husband Brad Pitt from seeing their children over Thanksgiving weekend.
The 52-year-old actor ran off to the Turks and Caicos Islands to spend the annual holiday with his “buddies” after the ‘By the Sea’ star reportedly told him he wasn’t allowed to spend time with their six kids Maddox, 15, Pax, 12, Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 10, and eight-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne last weekend.
A source told the New York Post newspaper’s Page Six column: “He was at Amanyara in Turks and Caicos over Thanksgiving in a private villa [because] Angie wouldn’t let him see the kids. Brad was with one of his male buddies for the weekend.”
It was initially thought the former couple had put their differences aside so they could spend the holiday together for the sake of their children, but Angelina opted to celebrate Thanksgiving, which fell on November 25, in Los Angeles.
The pair split in September after it was claimed the hunky actor had “got physical” in a row with Maddox on board a private jet.
The FBI got involved and spent weeks investigating the allegations, interviewing Maddox and interrogating Brad, before they later closed the case due to lack of substantial evidence.
However, although he was cleared of the allegations, Angelina is still fighting for sole custody of their kids in her divorce papers.
Despite the 41-year-old actress not wanting Brad anywhere near her children, the courts recently agreed that they will stay in her care but the actor will have “therapeutic visits.”
In light of the agreement, it’s believed Brad has only seen his children three times since the ‘Maleficent’ star filed for divorce.
A source said recently: “He’s crushed. Brad has been deferential on what’s best for them and limits their stress.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Dolly Parton’s theme park had to be evacuated after a series of wildfires ripped through Tennessee on Monday (28.11.16).
The 70-year-old country legend is “heartbroken” that people have been forced to flee their homes in and around Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, including her attraction Dollywood, after firefighters risked their lives to battle 14 vicious blazes last night.
She told People.com: “I have been watching the terrible fires in the Great Smoky Mountains and I am heartbroken. I am praying for all the families affected by the fire and the firefighters who are working so hard to keep everyone safe.”
An assessment of the damage to the park was carried out on Tuesday (29.11.16) and, although there was no serious harm caused to the attraction itself, more than a dozen cabins in Dollywood’s Smoky Mountain resort were destroyed.
Despite the damage caused to the resort, Dolly said: “It is a blessing that my Dollywood theme park, the DreamMore Resort and so many businesses in Pigeon Forge have been spared.”
Dollywood will remain closed until Wednesday (30.11.16).
Officials at the Great Smoky Mountains National Park said: “Unpredicted, extreme weather conditions on Sunday afternoon through Monday led to the exponential spread of fires both inside and outside of the National Park.
“Severe wind gusts of over 80 mph, unprecedented low relative humidity, and extended drought conditions caused the fire burning in the National Park to spread rapidly and unpredictably, in spite of suppression efforts on Sunday that included helicopter water drops.”
There have been no reported deaths as of yet, but it’s believed there are three people in a critical condition at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, suffering with burns.

OHMYGOSSIP — Carrie Fisher was not in love with her ‘Star Wars’ co-star Harrison Ford, but she was infatuated with him.
The 60-year-old actress decided to lift the lid on her three-month fling with Harrison in her new memoir ‘The Princess Diarist’ – which details entries in her diary from 40 years ago – which occurred when they were shooting ‘A New Hope’ in London in 1976 and the then-33-year-old actor was married to Mary Marquardt.
The affair began after the pair – who played eventual lovers Princess Leia and Harrison Ford in the original trilogy – after attending a birthday party for the film’s director George Lucas but fizzled out in a matter of weeks.
Carrie – who was 19 at the time of the tryst – doesn’t think she or Harrison, now 74, had feelings strong enough to be described as love but she was very attracted to the screen heartthrob.
During an interview on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’ she was asked by the host if they were in love, to which Carrie responded: “Well it depends on who you ask. I was infatuation, probably. Love is more mature.”
Although the ‘Star Wars’ cast and crew were close, Carrie insists it was not hard for her and Harrison to hide their relationship from people.
She said: “I told other stuff to distract people so they wouldn’t figure it out. No one thought it was happening at the time.”
She jokingly added: “I don’t even know if he did. No, he did.”
Carrie believes she and Harrison – who were reunited in a galaxy far, far away in 2015 blockbuster ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ – got together mainly because they were in the UK and lonely because they were away from their friends and family.
She told Ellen: “That’s because everybody was away from home, so them the rules – I didn’t know this. I was 19. No one told me about location rules, or lack of rules. But you can do whatever you want, as long as you film the movie. They can sleep together if their family’s not around.”

OHMYGOSSIP — John Legend sees a lot of “darkness in the world” around him.
The 37-year-old singer is gearing up to release his fifth studio album ‘Darkness and Light’ on Friday (02.12.16), and has said he came up with the title after realising the amount of “pain and conflict” in the world, but says the “desire to find light” compliments that darker side.
Speaking to the new issue of Jocks&Nerds magazine – of which he is the cover star – the ‘All of Me’ hitmaker said: “While ‘Darkness and Light’ is the name of one of the songs, those words kept coming back to me. There’s a lot of darkness in the world, pain and conflict. But the album also represents the desire to find light, optimism, love and joy in the midst of all that.”
And the ‘Love Me Now’ singer says his approach to singing about “love in a broader sense” comes from the inspiration he draws from artists such as Marvin Gaye and Bill Withers.
He added: “I look to artists like Marvin Gaye and Bill Withers for inspiration more than any other artists. I consider myself to be someone who is part of a legacy, but doing it in my own way.
“They sang about love and relationships in a really beautiful, sensual way, but they also sang about love in a broader sense: love for mankind, love for justice and love for peace.”
Meanwhile, the ‘Tonight’ musician – who shares seven-month-old daughter Luna with his wife Chrissy Teigen – believes a lot of the world’s “darkness” will come after current US President Barack Obama steps down from office to allow President-Elect Donald Trump to move into the White House.
John said: “I think people are already missing the way they (Barack and Michelle) conducted themselves in office. Particularly when you compare them, especially with Trump and how tawdry so much of the campaign has been. I think people are appreciating how scandal-free [Obama’s] Presidency has been and, like I say, appreciating him more and more.”
John’s full interview in Jocks&Nerds magazine is available now.

OHMYGOSSIP — Sarah Jessica Parker could never meet a man on Tinder – and neither could her ‘Sex and the City’ alter ego Carried Bradshaw.
The 51-year-old actress is intrigued by the dating app – which encourages users to choose potential partners based on their looks – but is relieved she is happily married to Matthew Broderick and isn’t relying on the software to get a guy.
Just as Sarah doesn’t believe she’d be good on Tinder she thinks New York girl about town Carrie – who she portrayed in the long-running HBO series and two films – would be hopeless on the app the same as her friend Charlotte Yorke (Kristin Davis), however, Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) could make it work.
When asked for her thoughts on Tinder, Sarah said: “I couldn’t do that. Neither Carrie or Charlotte could. Miranda, well yes, she could find love online.”
The blonde starlet – who was also joined in ‘SATC’ by Kim Cattrall who played maneater Samantha Jones – describes her husband of 19 years Matthew as her “favourite person” and says they marriage is a true partnership in every way.
In an interview with the new issue of Vanity Fair Italy, Sarah – who has son James, 14, and seven-year-old twins daughters Tabitha and Loretta with her actor spouse – shared: “I really like Matthew, he’s my favourite person, and we built together exactly the life we wanted. We are completely connected. His joys make me happy, they make my life better. His failures are my failures.”
Sarah also revealed that her and 54-year-old Matthew’s relationship has evolved over the years and she insists romance isn’t the most important thing to maintain a happy marriage.
She said: “[Romance] is important at the beginning of the relationship, what I call ‘the years of the soufflé’. You know, when at the restaurant the soufflé is the best thing they have on the menu. The first few years are like that, but later it’s important that you invested in the other person.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Olly Murs wants to date a cougar.
The 32-year-old singer has been single since splitting from his girlfriend Francesca Thomas, 27, last year but he is looking for love and is keen to find a “strong” woman to romance and he is perfectly happier if they are older than him.
Speaking to Closer magazine, he said: “I’m a strong person so I’m looking for a strong woman. I wouldn’t rule out going out with an older woman. There shouldn’t be an age limit on dating. It’s all about having a good time and enjoying great chemistry.”
Although he wants to get a new girlfriend, the ‘Troublemaker’ hitmaker admits dating in the public eye can be tricky and he lives in fear of getting snapped on camera phones by the public.
He said: “In this job you have to be more careful. I’ve been caught on Snapchat a few times kissing girls in nightclubs. It’s a new age – everyone is a paparazzi.”
Olly won’t rule out online dating as an “option”, but he’d rather not log-on for love, and he thinks he’ll be able to meet a lady through his pop star job.
He said: “It’s an option, but in my job I meet loads of people and, if I see someone attractive who I like, I just go and talk to them.
“I have kissed a celeb before – it was just a little snog – nothing else. Everyone thinks it’s Caroline Flack, but it’s not.”
The ‘You Don’t Know Love’ singer insists he is not a “slapper” and isn’t interested in having casual sex.
He said: “People would suspect that because I’m a pop star I’d be sleeping with different girls every week but that’s not the kind of person I am. I’m no slapper!
“Of course, when I was younger and not interested in a serious relationship, I had a lot of fun but I’m not that kind of person now.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Michelle Williams “couldn’t stop crying” when she watched her performance in ‘Manchester by the Sea’.
The 36-year-old actress stars as Randi in the recently released drama, a heartbroken mother dealing with a family tragedy, and has said she found it difficult to take on the role as “something happening to your child” is the worst thing she has had to experience.
She said: “I couldn’t stop crying. It’s like the darkest part of your heart, something happening to your child … She’s making a brave choice, moment by moment, hour by hour, day by day. Because it is a choice. I would exit … It would be so much easier than living with the loss.”
Michelle shares a connection with her character in the movie as she had to deal with her own loss when her former partner Heath Ledger – with whom she shares 11-year-old daughter Matilda – died in 2008 from an accidental drug overdose.
The blonde screen beauty has said that despite her belief in “not fighting circumstances”, she doesn’t believe the star’s death happened for a reason.
Speaking to Porter magazine, the star said: “In all honesty, for pretty much everything else, I feel like I’m a believer in not fighting circumstances, accepting where you are and where you’ve been.
“In pretty much all senses but one. I would be able to go totally down that line of thinking were it not for Matilda not having her dad. You know that’s just something that doesn’t … I mean, it just won’t ever be right.”
Meanwhile, Michelle admits she is finding it “really sensitive” learning how to date again and trying to explain her situation as she didn’t anticipate she would still be dating in her 30s.
She explained: “Talk about a learning process. I think God, what would I say about it? I feel really sensitive about it and certainly did not expect to still be dating at 36 with an 11 year old. This is not what I imagined.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Elle Fanning won’t open a Twitter account because she thinks there are too many arguments on the social media platform.
The 18-year-old actress has always avoided the website – which allows users to make posts of 140 characters – because of the conflict that seems to arise on it and admits when it comes to social media she’s more an Instagram girl.
Discussing her media habits in an interview with the new winter issue of C Magazine, she said: “Well, my parents never let me have a Facebook account. And I had a private Instagram, but I was always a little intimidated by it. I have never had a Twitter account. People just argue on Twitter and I want to stay away. I guess I like Instagram because I am a visual person.”
Elle has been working as an actress since before she was three years old and although she loves working in Hollywood she does think about going back to school.
If she does return to education then the ’20th Century Women’ star would like to study photography but she also has ambitions to become a film director too.
Elle said: “If I do go back to school one day, which I think I will, it will be for photography … [But Hollywood] feels very normal to me. I’ve always been on movie sets, and I have learned so much. I really hope to be a director one day, to feel so free to invent stuff …To have something that’s mine, my own thing that I pour myself into, that’s my dream.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Felicity Jones was a fan of ‘Star Wars’ before she joined the franchise.
The 33-year-old actress stars as Jyn Erso in the upcoming spin-off movie ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’, and has said she can “remember watching” George Lucas’ original trilogy with her family when she was younger.
Appearing on ‘Good Morning America’, Felicity said: “I remember watching when I was a little girl. I’d watch at my cousin’s house with my older brother, and for some reason we’d be really close to the TV watching it. We would watch it on VHS. I just remember the opening titles going up the screen.”
And it wasn’t just the ties to the ‘Star Wars’ mythical universe that drew Felicity to the role, as she also spoke out about how Rebel Alliance soldier Jyn’s “spirit” made her a “fantastic character” to portray.
She added: “It was the opportunity to play a kick-a** girl. She’s a real live wire. She’s got real spirit, and it was a just a fantastic character to make.”
The news of Felicity’s excitement toward the sci-fi spin off comes after she recently revealed she had become “obsessed with stunts” as it was something she’d never done before taking part in the feature.
She said: “I loved the action side of it because it’s something I’ve never done before.
“I learnt how to do kung fu and now I’ve become obsessed with stunts and being on wires.”
Felicity trained “every day” for the role prior to filming.
She said: “I’ve never done this level of physical preparation for something before. Particularly for ‘Rogue One’, where I was training every day and doing kung fu rehearsals on a daily basis. But that’s part of the reason why I wanted to do it, because it was very different from what I’d done before.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Ellie Goulding has taken up the clarinet again.
The 29-year-old singer took to Instagram on Monday night (28.11.16) to share a snap of herself holding a new woodwind instrument which she had played for “five years” before learning the guitar, and told her followers she stopped playing it because she “struggled ever affording a good one”.

She said: “I’m still going to be writing, but it’s been so overwhelming the past few years that it’s time to go away for a little bit and be out of the limelight.
“It’s really a commitment, being on the road; you almost put everything on hold – seeing family, seeing friends. I’ve missed so many weddings and births.
“It will be nice to wake up and know I don’t have anything to do.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Emily Blunt and John Krasinski have sold their home for $2.75 million.
The showbiz power couple – who married in 2010 – splashed out $2.15 million for the five-bedroom plush property in Ojai, California, in 2012, and have made a $600,000 profit on the house, despite trying to get more money for their pad.
According to TMZ, the actors initially put the abode on the market for $4.25 million last year, but were forced to slash the price when they didn’t get much interest.
But they finally accepted a $2.75 million deal on the house, which will be ideal over the winter months as it contains four fireplaces.
There are also five bathrooms, hardwood floors and a pool, as well as picturesque views of the area, which is set in a valley in the Topatopa Mountains.
This is not the first time Emily, 33, and John, 37, have had to drop their asking price on a home.
In June, Kendall Jenner forked out $6.5 million to purchase the pair’s beautiful Hollywood Hills house.
But the couple had initially listed the renovated property for $8 million before dropping the price to $6.95 million.
The abode is ideal for bikini selfie-loving Kendall as it features a swimming pool, while there are also six bedrooms which could be great if her family want to stay the night.
What’s more, the 21-year-old model’s clothing is no doubt right at home in the impressive walk-in closet.
But Jimmy Kimmel, who lives across the road from Kendall, recently told her the neighbours were not happy when she moved in.
Speaking on his show, he told her: “Our neighbours were up in arms when you moved onto the block. There was a whole thing with emails that went on.”
