Ashley Roberts tops Strictly Come Dancing leaderboard

OHMYGOSSIP — Ashley Roberts topped the ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ leaderboard with her near-perfect contemporary dance on Saturday (10.11.18).
The Pussycat Dolls star and her professional partner Pasha Kovalev scored a whopping 39 points for the couple’s choice performance, which saw them take on a contemporary dance in honour of her late father Pat Roberts, who sadly took his own life on March 19 this year after a long battle with both his physical and mental health.
Their routine was almost perfect, with three judges – head judge Shirley Ballas, Dame Darcey Bussell, and Bruno Tonioli – scoring the pair a perfect 10, whilst acid-tongued Craig Revel Horwood gave the duo a nine, citing a lack of “breath” as the reason for his point deduction.
Speaking about the dance, Ashley said: “The story about the dance is loss – I lost my dad earlier this year. My dad and I connected over music and performing. So to have this show come in at this time – I just feel that it is a gift in so many ways … I know that he is with me, and that means a lot.”
The moving dance – which was set to ‘Unsteady’ by X Ambassadors – even left Shirley wiping away tears as she praised Ashley for being brave enough to share her story.
Elsewhere in the show, Steps star Faye Tozer and her partner Giovanni Pernice were a close second with 36 points, whilst Charles Venn and Karen Clifton scored 35, and Paralympian Lauren Steadman picked up a score of 34 for her Viennese Waltz with AJ Pritchard.
Stacey Dooley and her partner Kevin Clifton found themselves tied in fifth place with Joe Sugg and Diane Buswell after both pairs scored 32, and Graeme Swann trailed slightly behind with 31.
The bottom two places went to Kate Silverton, who scored 30, and Danny John Jules, who dropped out of the 30-club to pick up 27 points.
The scores will be added to the result of the public vote in tomorrow’s results show, where two pairs will face the dance off and one will be sent home.

Alexander Skarsgard feels his job is ‘trivial’

OHMYGOSSIP — Alexander Skarsgard often feels like his job is “trivial”.
The 42-year-old actor has a brother who works as a doctor in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and the ‘Big Little Lies’ star has said that watching his sibling work hard to save lives can sometimes make his own job seem insignificant in comparison.
He said: “There are definitely moments when I feel that what I am doing is trivial. One of my brothers is an ICU doctor, and when I’m in Sweden he’ll come home having been up for 18 hours literally saving lives, and I’m on the couch working on a script saying, ‘I’m not really feeling this love scene.’ ”
Alex’s father is Hollywood star Stellan Skarsgard and he also has brother Bill Skarsgard – who recently played murderous clown Pennywise in ‘IT’ – but the family make sure not to let the “fundamental silliness of fame” get to them.
His father Stellan said: “The good thing, is that he, and all his brothers, have a very healthy attitude towards the fundamental silliness of fame. I don’t know how they got inoculated against it, but it makes me happy.”
The former ‘True Blood’ star – who previously dated British model and TV presenter Alexa Chung – doesn’t often move in Hollywood circles and said most of his friends aren’t in the industry, including his best pal, who makes yoghurt.
Speaking to The Times newspaper, he said: “One of my closest friends makes yoghurt. We met eight years ago at a glögg [mulled wine] party. It was almost like an epiphany. I knew immediately, ‘Oh s**t, I think we’re best friends.’ And we are. It was like a love story, but on a platonic level.”

Caitlyn Jenner’s home spared from fire

OHMYGOSSIP — Caitlyn Jenner’s home has been spared from the Californian wildfires – after it was reported to have burned down earlier this week.
The 69-year-old reality star – who was formerly known as Bruce Jenner – was believed to have lost her Malibu hills home to the blazing Woolsey fire that tore through the area on Friday (09.11.18), but it has now been reported that the property managed to avoid structural damage.
According to new aerial pictures snapped on Saturday (10.11.18) morning and obtained by TMZ, small hot spots are still smouldering outside the former ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star’s home, but the mansion itself is still intact and free from damage.
On Friday, Caitlyn and her close friend Sophia Hutchins posted videos on their Instagram stories which confirmed they were safe, but at the time Caitlyn said she was unsure on the state of her home.
She said: “Hi! Caitlyn and Sophia here! Well, we’re safe. Don’t know if the house made it or not, it’s still up in the air.”
Caitlyn also confirmed that her pet dogs are safe too, as she showed them playing around in a swimming pool behind her.
She added: “[They’re] having a good day – I don’t think we’re having that good of day.”
Sophia, 22, also took to her own Instagram story to share a video in which she stated they were both safe and well.
She said: “I just wanna let everyone know we made it out. Both of us made it out, the dogs made it out, a few of our belongings made it out and we are safe and that that is all that matters. We are safe.”
Several stars, including Caitlyn’s former step-daughters Kim Kardashian West, Khloe Kardashian, and Kourtney Kardashian were also forced out of their homes around the Malibu and Calabasas areas, as the fire continues to spread.
Kim – who has North, five, Saint, two, and nine-month-old daughter Chicago with her ‘All Day’ rapper husband Kanye West – took to Instagram to share the scenes from the blaze as she landed, and revealed she and her family had just an hour to pick up a few of their belongings before leaving.
She wrote: “Pray for Calabasas. Just landed back home and I had one hour to pack up and evacuate our home. Pray everyone is safe.”
She then updated fans, letting them know she was having to leave her home, writing: “They’re evacuating everyone now from all of our homes.”
The 38-year-old reality star then praised the fire services, adding: “Fire fighters are arriving. Thank you for all that you do for us!!! (sic)”

Alicia Silverstone: My son has never been sick

OHMYGOSSIP — Alicia Silverstone says her son has “never had to take medicine” – and she credits veganism with keeping him healthy.
The 42-year-old actress has seven-year-old son Bear Blu – whom she has with estranged husband Christopher Jarecki – has never been sick enough to need medicine in his life, and believes the reason he’s so healthy is because she’s raised him on the vegan diet that she has followed since she was 21.
She said: “He’s never had to take medicine in his life,. He can get sniffles and a runny nose but he’s not down, he still goes to school. Two times in his life has he been like ‘Mommy I don’t feel good,’ and it was only for a few hours and he was back running around.”
Alicia also reminisced on the first time she spoke about her diet – which cuts out all produce that comes from an animal, including meat, dairy, wool, and leather – on television, as she recalled how people would think she was “an alien” for her beliefs.
She said: “I remember when I would go on David Letterman and go on Jay Leno and they’d be like ‘Vegan?! What’s a vegan?’ And they would just make a whole fun riff on it because it was like I was an alien, no one was talking about being vegan on television.”
Two decades on from when she first spoke about veganism, the ‘Clueless’ alum has written two vegan cookbooks, one of which contains a recipe for her mother’s granola, which Alicia considers her guilty pleasure.
Speaking to New York Post’s Page Six, she said: “I can’t keep it in the house. I let Christopher [Jarecki] have it at his house. I’ll make it and then give it to him because if it’s in the house, I can’t stop eating it.”

Sarah Ferguson felt ‘proud’ seeing Princess Eugenie show off scar

OHMYGOSSIP — Sarah Ferguson’s “proudest moment” was watching her daughter Princess Eugenie show off her scoliosis scar in her wedding dress.
The 28-year-old tied the knot with drinks ambassador Jack Brooksbank last month, and paid tribute to her battle with scoliosis – which is a curvature of the spine – with her gown, which included an open back to show off the scar she received from having corrective surgery when she was 12.
And her mother Sarah, 59, has now said she couldn’t be more proud of her daughter for “standing tall” and showing the world it’s okay to be different.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, she said: “My proudest moment was watching Eugenie standing tall, very proud to show her scoliosis scar in her low-backed dress. I’d gone to all the fittings and sat there beaming with delight, and because there was no veil it was a very strong statement.
“We rang St. George’s Chapel to make sure there wasn’t a special rule specifying veils must be worn, but there wasn’t and Eugenie just wanted to be herself.”
Previously, Eugenie herself had said she had planned a “lovely way” to pay tribute to other scoliosis sufferers through her wedding dress.
Speaking before her wedding, she said: “I had an operation when I was 12 on my back, and you’ll see on Friday [at the wedding], but it’s a lovely way to honour the people who looked after me and a way of standing up for young people who also go through this.
“I think you can change the way beauty is, and you can show people your scars and I think it’s really special to stand up for that.”
The dress – which was designed by Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos – was a long-sleeved ivory gown with a flowing train, folded shoulders, and a low back, and the royal chose not to wear a veil, accessorising with the Greville Emerald tiara which she borrowed from her grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.

Millie Mackintosh guessed ‘weird’ Hugo was going to propose

OHMYGOSSIP — Millie Mackintosh knew when Hugo Taylor was about to propose because he was “acting weird”.
The former ‘Made in Chelsea’ beauty – who tied the knot with her former co-star in June – got engaged to her partner while on holiday in Mykonos for her 28th birthday last year, and she ensured she was camera ready at all times because she was expecting him to pop the question.
Asked if she knew he was going to propose, she said: “Yes, because I know him so well. He was acting weird, we were away and it was my birthday. I had every outfit planned and every day I did my make-up so I was ready.”
Hugo eventually popped the question over breakfast on her birthday with a “sweet” proposal.
Speaking to Red magazine, she recalled: “He was so nervous. It’s a blur but he said some sweet things.”
And Millie – who was previously married to rapper Professor Green – was “ready” for him to propose several months before he did.
She said: “We’d known each other for so long and we feel so comfortable together, like best friends. I was ready a couple of months before he proposed. I didn’t know when it would happen but I was there.”
The couple first dated in 2011 but split when Hugo was unfaithful and the 29-year-old star doesn’t think they were “ready” for anything serious back then.
She said: “Hugo and I are different people now. We’ve grown up a lot. I as 21, I didn’t really know what I was doing. He was more immature, we weren’t ready to be together.”
But Millie admitted their relationship came as a surprise as initially Hugo was just a “supportive friend” in the wake of her marriage breakdown.
She said: “I had been through a lot, it as an emotional time. At the beginning Hugo was a supportive friend that’s really what it was and it was nice. Then it developed.
“I was like, ‘Oh… OK.’ It just felt right. We’ve been friends for a long time and have many mutual friends but, ultimately, we needed to be apart to have our own journeys and figure stuff out before coming back together.”

Emilia Clarke: The pub soothes the soul

OHMYGOSSIP — Emilia Clarke thinks going to the pub is “good for the soul”.
The ‘Game of Thrones’ actress always “feels good” after she’s enjoyed a night out with her friends and thinks it’s even more beneficial than eating well and getting a full night’s sleep.
In an interview with Marie Claire magazine, she said: “Going to the pub with your mates is as good for the soul as staying in and watching TV. You could have eaten your greens and gone to bed early with a cup of tea, but a trip to the pub with the girls will make you feel better every time. You wake up and feel good because you’ve giggled so much.”
Emilia also tries hard to be “nice” to herself and tries not to talk “a lot of c**p” or project her insecurity onto anyone else.
She said: “Every time someone says wellness, I think of brain wellness. It’s important to keep it in check. Once in a while, assess your dialogue. Have you said a lot of c**p about yourself recently? When you start to do that, you begin to catch yourself out and realise that you should try and be a bit nicer. I find so often that there have been moments where I’m like, ‘Oh they don’t like me,’ Or, ‘I’m not good enough for that’. If you just try to shake that off and be open, you realise you’re projecting your insecurities onto them. When you spend your life putting your angst out there, you’re only going to get that back. If we all took care of ourselves, I think we’d be kinder to each other.”
The 32-year-old actress loves “comfort” food, but goes through phases of what she tucks into to feel good.
She said: “I go through food phases. My comfort meals change biannually. For a while, it was just bread with peanut butter and jam – very American but so good. Then, it was pasta. It doesn’t matter what’s on it, a big bowl of pasta is always comforting. I also went through a fish and chip phase. But the thing that brings me the most comfort is honey. I have it in my coffee, my tea, my yoghurt … I’m not fussy about it either, it can be any variety.”

Kate Upton gives birth

OHMYGOSSIP — Kate Upton has given birth to a baby girl.
The 26-year-old model and her husband Justin Verlander welcomed daughter Genevieve into the world last Wednesday (07.11.18) and the tot has already “stolen” her father’s heart.
Kate took to Instagram to share a black and white photo of Genevieve’s hand resting by her face and wrote: “Genevieve Upton Verlander [heart emoji] 11.7.18 (sic)”
And Justin posted a photo of the three of them holding hands with the caption: “Welcome to the world Genevieve Upton Verlander. You stole my [heart] the first second I met you!!! 11.7.2018. (sic)”
The ‘Other Woman’ actress – who announced her pregnancy in July – previously admitted she had done her best to stay “healthy” over the last few months and kept working out as it made her feel “better”.
She said: “I stopped working out for a month [because I] was so tired and there was so much travel. But I’ve been completely trying to stay healthy and work out through the pregnancy, and doing the best I can. It makes me feel better, honestly. What I’m working toward is different. Instead of working toward being super fit, I’m strengthening my pelvic [area] and doing a lot of hip thrusts, body-weight hip thrusts and lunges and squats to help with delivery and make it easier, hopefully. Fingers crossed.”
And Kate’s 35-year-old husband was left feeling disappointed when his wife failed to be gripped by bizarre food cravings.
She said: “Justin was the most excited about weird cravings. He kept being like, ‘I can’t wait for the pickle run in the middle of the night.’ I’m like, ‘Okay.’ But I haven’t had anything. I’m fine with all food…”

Robin Thicke’s house burns down

OHMYGOSSIP — Robin Thicke’s house has burned down.
The ‘Blurred Lines’ hitmaker and his pregnant girlfriend April Love Geary – who already have eight-month-old Mia together – were evacuated from their Malibu abode on Friday (09.11.18) due to the raging wildfire spreading through California, and the 23-year-old model has now revealed they have sadly lost their home.
April took to her Instagram Story on Saturday (11.11.18) to share a photo of the front gate of their destroyed house and, alongside a crying emoji, wrote: “Our house is gone.”
She had previously shared a picture of the thick smoke from the fire and wrote “Our house is in there” and later confirmed their property was “up in flames”.
Meanwhile, 41-year-old Robin documented the family’s evacuation on his Instagram Story on Friday.
He explained: “This is us going North instead of South on the PCH to get away from the fire. We are in the middle of it (sic)”
He also shared a photo of the smoke cloud and admitted he was “praying” his house would be OK.
He wrote: “Our home is just to the left! Praying.”
Robin later shared a photo of his eight-year-old son Julian – who he has with ex-wife Paula Patton – sitting among the debris, which he captioned: “Contemplating next move.”
A number of stars have been forced to evacuated their homes since fire broke out on Thursday afternoon, including the Kardashian family, Lady Gaga, Alyssa Milano and Jessica Simpson, while the blaze has destroyed the famous ‘Bachelor’ mansion and sets used in ‘Westworld’.
Both Iggy Azalea and Cher have also expressed their concern that their houses could fall victim to the fire.
Iggy tweeted: “Iam genuinely concerned about my home burning down it’s right on the canyon in calabasas and I can’t get home to any of my things right now (sic).”
And Cher wrote: “I’m worried about my house, but there is nothing I can do. Friends houses have burned.
“I can’t bear the thought of there being no Malibu I’ve had a house in Malibu since 1972 (sic).”

Ant McPartlin picked Holly Willoughby for I’m A Celebrity…

OHMYGOSSIP — Ant McPartlin helped choose Holly Willoughby as his replacement on ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’.
The 42-year-old presenter is taking a lengthy break from his career to focus on his sobriety, so the ‘This Morning’ host is stepping in to front the jungle contest with Declan Donnelly, and she revealed her friend is “happy” to have her cover for him.
She said: “We’ve spoken and he’s happy – he was part of the decision that I’d do it. He just needs to look after himself, that’s the most important thing.
“He knows I’ll look after the show and keep it warm for him.”
The 37-year-old star thinks her longstanding friendship with Dec is key to her being able to step into Ant’s shoes on the show.
She told You magazine: “On ‘I’m A Celebrity…’ it’s important to have chemistry and to have a friendship as a starting point you can grow from.
“It’s that unspoken thing: you know how the other person speaks, how their sentences are going to end. That helps a lot.”
But though she’s looking forward to the job, Holly admitted it wasn’t something she wanted to do.
She said: “It’s definitely bittersweet. ‘I’m A Celebrity..’ is a huge show but nobody wanted to have to be asked to do it. It’s not nice for anyone.”
The blonde beauty admitted she’s worried about “screaming” during the live shows because of her fear of insects.
Asked whether she’s likely to cry as much as she does on ‘This Morning’, she said: “It’s not crying I’m worried about, it’s screaming.
“Alison Hammond says uninvited creatures keep landing on you and getting stuck in your hair – that freaked me out. Dec said you get used to it.”

Craig Revel Horwood wants more Nativity movies

OHMYGOSSIP — Craig Revel Horwood wants to make more ‘Nativity’ movies.
The ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ judge makes his film debut in ‘Nativity Rocks!’ and he had such a “wonderful” experience, he’s hoping he gets signed up for further instalments in the festive franchise.
He told Heat magazine: “I’m looking forward to that [coming out] The ‘Nativity’ films are very funny.
“I play a villain called Emmanuelle Cavendish who does his best to make sure everyone is unhappy.
“It was a wonderful experience and I would like to do more.”
The 53-year-old choreographer previously worked with Hugh Grant when he created a dance sequence for the final scene of ‘Paddington 2’ and was delighted to find the British actor to be a “true pro” as he expected someone more “starry”.
He said: “That was so much fun to do.
“Hugh had to learn to tap dance in a very short amount of time.
“He was nervous and he got very frustrated with himself at times but he came good.
“I thought he was going to be quite starry but he was down-to-earth, got on with the job and was a true pro.”
Meanwhile, Craig is very happy with his new partner, Jonathan, and appreciates the fact he has a career away from the showbiz industry.
He gushed: “He’s gorgeous and such a lovely guy.
“He’s not affected by the business either.
“He’s a horticulturalist and his love is plants.
“He’s really knowledgeable, super-intelligent and it’s just lovely.
“I’m very lucky and very happy.”
And though Craig doesn’t feel “compelled” to have children, he’ll support his partner if he wants a family.
He said: “I’m 53 and Jonathan’s 33 so he’s quite young.
“If he wanted a family, because he’s always talked about having one, I’m not totally against it. At the moment, I’m not compelled to have children or adopt, but there are so many kids out there that need a loving home.
“It would be kind of cool if Jonathan did want to go down that route but I’m leaving that decision up to him.”

Elvis Presley to be honoured by president

OHMYGOSSIP — The late Elvis Presley is to be honoured with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
The ‘Hound Dog’ hitmaker – who passed away in 1977 aged 42 – will join seven other “distinguished individuals” in being recognised with the prestigious accolade from President Donald Trump on 16 November.
The “nation’s highest civilian honour” is given out for those who have “made especially meritorious contributions to the security or national interests of the United States, to world peace, or to cultural or other significant public or private endeavour”, and baseball legend Babe Ruth and Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia will also posthumously receive the medal, along with Senator Orrin Hatch, Dallas Cowboys player Roger Staubach, football player-turned-judge Alan Page and Republican donor Miriam Adelson.
Elvis has been chosen for the medal for the way he “defined American culture” and also his service in the US Army.
The White House said in a statement: “Elvis Presley defined American culture to billions of adoring fans around the world. Elvis fused gospel, country, and rhythm and blues to create a sound all his own, selling more than a billion records.
“Elvis also served nearly two years in the United States Army, humbly accepting the call to serve despite his fame. He later starred in 31 films, drew record-breaking audiences to his shows, sent television ratings soaring, and earned 14 Grammy Award nominations. He ultimately won 3 Grammy Awards for his gospel music. Elvis Presley remains an enduring American icon four decades after his death.”
The ‘Love Me Tender’ singer is only the third musician to have received the honour posthumously, following Ronald Reagan bestowing the medal on bandleader Meredith Wilson and jazz icon Count Basie.
Under Barack Obama’s administration, singers including Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, Gloria Estefan, Diana Ross, Loretta Lynn and Bruce Springsteen were bestowed the accolade.

Nigella Lawson needs to work

OHMYGOSSIP — Nigella Lawson “has to work” for financial reasons.
The 58-year-old chef admitted she had to “start life again” after splitting from Charles Saatchi in 2013 after 10 years of marriage and she still needs to front TV shows in order to pay her bills.
Speaking to Noble Rot magazine, she admitted: “I had to start my life again at 53, get a mortgage at an age when you’re supposed to be paying it all off.
“I do have to work. But I only do a TV programme every other year. It’s not like I’m there all the time.”
And it seems Nigella will be looking for a new job now as she’s been dropped as the face of Typhoo because the tea brand are looking to capture the attention of younger customers.
After seeing sales slump 26%, the company are planning a redesign with a major TV and social media campaign.
According to trade publication The Grocer, the company are planning to roll out “radical, eye catching” new packaging featuring cups and teapots next to mugs and electric kettles that will be a “reassuringly nostalgic update on designs of the past”.
Marketing manager Pauline Gorska said the change marks a “really exciting new chapter” for Typhoo.
The news comes after Nigella recently admitted she gets up every two hours for a cup of tea.
She said: “What I like a lot about getting older is you don’t feel embarrassed about going to bed early. I’m like, ‘When can I lie down next?’ That’s all I think about really.
“I would very happily go to bed at 7.30pm. I’m not sleeping. I don’t do much but I need to be lying down. I think that in a way is a wonderful state to be in.
“I need time to wind down and that takes its own time. I make myself cups of tea as well. I sleep in only two-hour bursts and not many of them.”

Ireland Baldwin’s siblings love her

OHMYGOSSIP — Ireland Baldwin’s younger siblings are “obsessed” with her.
The 23-year-old model’s dad Alec Baldwin has Carmen, five, Rafael, three, Leonardo, two, and five-month-old Romeo with his wife Hilaria, and the youngsters love to see Ireland as often as possible.
Asked what Ireland’s relationship with the children is like, Hilaria said: “My kids are obsessed with her. Carmen and Rafa love her very much. We’re the only ones living in New York so my family comes to visit frequently.”
Hilaria, 34, and Alec, 60, can see a lot of themselves in their kids and they think Carmen is particularly like her father.
Hilaria said: “Each one of them has a part of us. Alec and I are very, very different but we’re similar in some ways too. We’re both very dramatic, strong-willed and kind of loud. I think that our kids, especially Carmen, are very much like us. With my husband, she likes to sit down and watch something. She has the capacity to complete something – where I’ll do it if I have to, but don’t want to. Alec is very good at that. Our boys are climbing on everything – I feel that’s very me.”
Speaking to HELLO! Magazine, Alec added: “Carmen is so interesting, so theatrical, that I could talk to her all day.”
However, the ‘Saturday Night Live’ star doesn’t want her to follow in his acting footsteps.
Asked if he thinks she’s inherited the acting gene, he said: “Oh God, I hope not. Or if it is, I hope it is temporary.”
Carmen recently started school and Hilaria admitted she cried when she had to say goodbye, though she is comforted to know they’ve made good decisions for the youngster.
She said: “I cried and missed her all day. But she has her friends and I see how much she’s enjoying it.
“Her head teacher is from Spain, so I’m very proud that we managed to find a school in New York that is so connected. If one day she wants to move to Spain or somewhere else people speak Spanish, she’ll be able to do it.”

Michael C Hall not ‘all the way’ heterosexual

OHMYGOSSIP — Michael C. Hall is not “all the way heterosexual”.
The 47-year-old actor – who married third wife Morgan MacGregor two years ago – has always “leaned into” fluidity when it comes to his sexuality and he believes there is a “spectrum” when it comes to gender and attraction.
Discussing his previous homosexual roles as David in ‘Six Feet Under’, the Emcee in ‘Cabaret’ and Hedwig in ‘Hedwig and the Angry Inch’, he told The Daily Beast: “I think there’s a spectrum. I am on it. I’m heterosexual. But if there was a percentage, I would say I was not all the way heterosexual.
“I think playing the Emcee required me to fling a bunch of doors wide open because that character I imagined as pansexual.
“Yeah, like I made out with Michael Stuhlbarg every night doing that show. I think I have always leaned into any fluidity in terms of my sexuality.”
But the ‘Dexter’ star admitted he had never had a sexual relationship with another man, though the death of his father when he was just 11 years old has made him “crave emotional intimacy” with a guy.
He said: “I’ve never had an intimate relationship with a man. I think, maybe because of an absent father, there has definitely been a craving for an emotional intimacy with a man.
“I don’t mean to suggest that an emotional relationship between a father and son is any way homoerotic. I mean an emotional intimacy or connection that at least in the milieu I grew up in was considered fey.
“I had an appetite to have emotional connections with men beyond beer, sports, and fist pumping that were considered ‘gay.’ ”
Despite his comments, Michael admitted he had never been attracted to another man except “John Cameron Mitchell when I saw Hedwig. But no, as a rule I am heterosexual.”

Liam Payne fears for home

OHMYGOSSIP — Liam Payne is worried he will lose his house in the California wildfires.
The ‘Polaroid’ singer has urged those caught up in the area where the blaze has hit to “stay safe” and avoid “unnecessary risks” and admitted he was upset at the thought his Malibu home – where he lived with ex-girlfriend Cheryl after they first got together – could go up in flames because he has so many good “memories” of the place.
However, Liam – who has 19-month-old son Bear with Cheryl – knows things could be worse.
He tweeted: “My heart goes out to everyone caught in the fires please stay safe and don’t take unnecessary risks.
“I think I’m about to lose my house and its memories.
“Even worse tragically people have died thoughts and prayers with everyone.
“It’s been a tough day, let’s hope it gets better.”
A number of stars including Lady Gaga, Will Smith, Mark Hamill and the Kardashian family have been forced to flee their homes, while Robin Thicke and April Love Geary have confirmed their home burned down, as have sets used in ‘Westworld’ and ‘The Bachelor’.
Meanwhile, Khloe Kardashian has been doing her best to help out the fire crews who have been tackling the Woolsey blaze since Thursday (08.11.18) and urged others to follow her lead.
She shared videos of herself on her Instagram Story in which she wore a face mask and sunglasses to protect her face from the smoke and poor air quality as she went shopping for supplies.
She said: “Here at the CVS I basically bought everything they had in stock.
“I bought as many waters as I could, but they still have waters here, but if you guys can drop off whatever you can.
“I know the brave men and women are working so hard, tirelessly, for all of us would greatly appreciate it.
“Just do whatever you can, even if it’s one bottle of water, one container of eye drops, one granola bar, anything, I know they would appreciate it.”
She also urged fans to make donations to the California fire service.
She tweeted: “Grateful for the heroic @CAFirefighters battling the #CampFire #HillFire and #WoolseyFire and getting people to safety. Support our heroes and their families, please consider donating to @cafirefound here: http://cafirefoundation.org (sic)”
