Lena Headey joins assassin thriller Gunpowder Milkshake

OHMYGOSSIP — Lena Headey is set to star in new assassin movie ‘Gunpowder Milkshake’.
The 45-year-old actress is joining the new thriller from Studiocanal and The Picture Company, and the ‘Game of Thrones’ star will star alongside Karen Gillan, who is expected to be the lead of an all-female cast with filming due to begin in Berlin, Germany, in the spring.
Although details of the plot have been kept under wraps, the film is described as being in the assassin genre and includes stories spanning over multiple generations.
The action flick will be directed by Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado, the pair responsible for the dark Israeli breakout ‘Big Bad Wolves’ and the duo also penned the script alongside graphic novel writer Ehud Lavski.
Andrew Rona and Alex Heineman of The Picture Company will produce the movie through their overall deal with Studiocanal.
Lena recently wrapped up her final scenes as ruthless Queen Cersei Lannister in HBO fantasy series ‘Game of Thrones’, which premieres in April, and the star previously admitted that she was overcome by emotion during her last days on set.
Lena – who made her ‘GoT’ debut in 2011 – previously confessed: “I knew that David [Benioff] and Dan [Weiss], our creators, were doing speeches and giving everybody these drawings of the storyboards.
“And I suddenly got really emotional at the end and tried to head down the stairs. They all rushed up and trapped me. And then they gave the speech, and it was really moving.”
The ‘300’ actress also revealed that – much like the show’s fans – the cast are always keen to discover how the story will evolve.
The actress – who stars alongside the likes of Sophie Turner and Maisie Williams – shared: “They usually give us all of [the scripts], and if anyone says they don’t flip to the end, they’re lying.”

After watching the BRITS, between 8pm and 10pm, the evenings performances will begin, before the after parties in the British capital.
Nile Rodgers and his manager Merck Mercuriadis said: “This will be an exciting night of celebration with our friends from music, film and entertainment but we really created this event and situated it at The Ned with our friends in the City in mind.
“In the 14 months we worked with our brokers and investors to launch the Hipgnosis Songs Fund Ltd we learned that there is a tremendous passion for music in the square mile and this is our way of being able to give everyone access on music’s biggest night of the year while supporting the important work of The Brit School and We Are Family Foundation.”
The ‘Get Lucky’ guitarist founded the We Are Family Foundation – a nod to the song he wrote for Sister Sledge – in 2001, in the wake of the devastating September 11 terror attacks that year in America.
The legendary producer is hoping to make it an annual event.
Tickets come priced at £300, with all proceeds being split equally between We Are Family and The BRIT School.

Jamie Chung has ‘unhealthy shoe obsession’

OHMYGOSSIP — Jamie Chung has confessed she has an “unhealthy shoe obsession”.
The ‘Sucker Punch’ actress has recently partnered with footwear brand Chinese Laundry on its new line, 42 Gold, to release her own collection and the star has revealed that the partnership was a no-brainer because “it felt right”.
Speaking to Footwear News, Chung said: “I worked in a shoe store growing up, the Athlete’s Foot. I had an unhealthy sneaker obsession, and I still do, but now it’s just all shoes. It’s my splurge. I’ll have my staples, experimental shoes, fashion forwards, and I certainly think 42 Gold is the everyday shoe.
“They [42 Gold] reached out to me, but first and foremost, it had to align with my brand and my audience – and me and my style. Footwear is a really personal thing. 42 Gold is elevated. It’s for the working woman, the woman who does it all, the multi-tasker, the mom, the business owner. It fits with the modern-day woman. It felt right.”
Jamie – who rose to fame on 2004’s ‘The Real World’ – also confessed that she likes her footwear to be “sensible” and “fashion-forward”.
Opening up about her go-to shoe styles, Jamie, 35, added: “It’s anything with a sensible heel. Something that is fashion-forward but also timeless. I am running around in flats, and when I’m traveling, I like to take a pair of heels, flats and a sandal. It really is a brand you can wear all year round. I can wear these heels all day.”

Emma Roberts to return to American Horror Story

OHMYGOSSIP — Emma Roberts will return for the ninth season of ‘American Horror Story’.
The 27-year-old actress – who previously appeared in ‘Coven’ (season three), ‘Freak Show’ (season four), ‘Cult’ (season seven) and ‘Apocalypse’ (season eight) – is to star in Ryan Murphy’s next installment of his anthology series, with Olympic skier Gus Kenworthy cast as her love interest.
Creator Ryan revealed their casting on his Instagram page, sharing a photo of Gus alongside the caption: “That special moment when you realize you have an Olympic medal AND will be playing Emma Roberts’ boyfriend on American Horror Story Season 9 (sic)”
The 27-year-old sportsman – whose previous acting experience was playing himself in a 2016 episode of ‘The Real O’Neals’ and a cameo in 2017’s ‘Sharknado 5: Global Swarming’ – commented on the post: “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.”
Details about the plot for the upcoming series are being kept under wraps, but it’s likely both Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters will have roles as they have featured in every other installment so far.
One person who won’t be tuning in to season nine is Julia Roberts because the ‘Pretty Woman’ star is being too afraid to tune in and watch her niece Emma in the show.
Emma previously said: “She’s too scared.”
But it isn’t just Julia whose frightened of the spooky programme, as Emma herself often watches it “with her eyes closed” because she finds some of the scenes too terrifying.
She added: “I’m basically too scared to watch it even. Because when you’re shooting it, it’s not scary and then … they add in all the effects and cut it together. I mean, I sometimes watch it with my eyes closed. I don’t blame her.”
The new series of ‘American Horror Story’ has yet to have a release date, but studio FX recently confirmed they have commissioned the programme as far as season 10.

‘Monster’ mom Melissa McCarthy

OHMYGOSSIP — Melissa McCarthy is becoming a “monster” at her daughters’ basketball games.
The ‘Can You Ever Forgive Me?’ actress – who has Vivian, 11, and Georgette, eight, with her husband Ben Falcone – is delighted the youngsters have developed a passion for sport but she gets so “crazy” and excited, she’s prone to bursting into tears and yelling at the other players while watching on the sidelines.
She said: “They’re both really into basketball, which I love, it has taken over the house, I didn’t see that one coming.
“They really like it and they both clicked in. When Georgie started, they explained guarding and she was like ‘Got it!’ She guarded their team, her own team, she was like ‘No, no, no,’ in their face…
“She made her first basket two weeks ago and… we all went crazy, my dad burst out crying, I burst out crying and there was a woman behind us going ‘I don’t know why I’m crying.’
“Something has happened, I scream and I yell like I’ve lost my mind,
“I’ve become exactly the person I always feared I would meet, a constant litany of ‘Get it! Take It! Get It!’ Once I was like, ‘She doesn’t deserve it!’ Oh my God, I’m yelling at an eight year old!
“I finally stop and I’m shaking, like, I’ve got to walk it off.
“I’m so excited because I love watching girls that age become – not more aggressive, I don’t mean it in a negative way – but seeing them go from ‘I can take that ball’ because they start off so polite, so when they start grabbing the ball, every aggressive part of me, that’s like 96% of my being is like ‘Take it from her!’
” I’m becoming a monster.”
Melissa is nominated for an Oscar for her role in ‘Can You Ever Forgive Me?’ but joked her kids didn’t let her get too excited when she got the early morning call confirming her place on the Best Actress shortlist.
Speaking on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’, she quipped: “I was on the phone and they came downstairs and were like ‘Is the toast ready?’ There’s no possible way to get overly impressed with myself in my house.”

Jay-Z paying for 21 Savage’s lawyer

OHMYGOSSIP — Jay-Z is helping to pay 21 Savage’s legal bill.
The hip hop mogul reached out to secure support after his friend was arrested by ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) at the weekend, who said they had “arrested unlawfully present United Kingdom national Sha Yaa Bin Abraham-Joseph AKA ’21 Savage’ during a targeted operation with federal and local law enforcement partners” because he is “unlawfully present in the U.S. and also a convicted felon.”
Attorney Alex Spiro confirmed to E! News that he was helping in the case after being hired by Jay and Roc Nation.
The ’99 Problems’ hitmaker – who has daughter Blue Ivy, seven, and 19-month-old twins Rumi and Sir with wife Beyonce – has also branded the ongoing detainment of the 26-year-old rapper an “absolute travesty” and called for him to be released and reunited with his three kids.
He said in a statement: “The arrest and detention of 21 Savage is an absolute travesty, his U visa petition has been pending for four years.
“In addition to being a successful recording artist, 21 deserves to be reunited with his children immediately #Free21Savage.(sic)”
Alex has vowed not to stop working on the case until the ‘Rockstar’ hitmaker is released, insisting his client is a “wonderful person” who deserves his freedom.
He said: “We are not going to stop until he is released, bonded out or in front of a judge…What we have here is someone who overstayed their Visa with an application pending for four years – not a convicted criminal that needs to be detained and removed but, by all accounts a wonderful person, father, and entertainer who has a marijuana offense which was vacated and sealed.”
The rapper’s legal team have previously clarified that their client was born in London and moved to America when he was seven years old.
They explained how Savage was born in the UK and arrived legally in the US under an H-4 visa, where he stayed until 2005, when he left for around a month to visit his country of birth, before returning, again under a valid H-4 visa, in July 2005.
However, that expired the following year “through no fault” of the rapper.
The statement continued: “Mr. Abraham-Joseph has been continuously physically present in the United States for almost 20 years, except for a brief visit abroad. Unfortunately, in 2006 Mr. Abraham-Joseph’s legal status expired through no fault of his own.
“Mr. Abraham-Joseph, like almost two million of his immigrant child peers, was left without immigration status as a young child with no way to fix his immigration status. These ‘Dreamers’ come from all walks of life and every ethnicity.
“Mr. Abraham-Joseph has no criminal convictions or charges under state or federal law and is free to seek relief from removal in immigration court. ICE provided incorrect information to the press when it claimed he had a criminal conviction.”

Blac Chyna’s mom calls for Rob Kardashian to get custody

OHMYGOSSIP — Blac Chyna’s mother wants Rob Kardashian to have full-time custody of their daughter Dream.
The ‘Rob + Chyna’ star has hit the headlines several times in the last few weeks after police were called to her home to an investigate a claim she was too intoxicated to care for the two-year-old tot and later when officers attended her hotel room in Hawaii following a fight with her current boyfriend Kid Buu, and Tokyo Toni told TMZ she thinks there is something “terribly wrong” in her daughter’s personal life, so her granddaughter would be better cared for by her father.
She told the website: “It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see something is terribly wrong.”
It was previously claimed Rob was unhappy that Chyna didn’t leave Dream with him, as stipulated in their custody agreement, when she flew to Hawaii, instead leaving the youngster with a nanny.
And though the reclusive sock designer believes the little girl is better off with him and a nanny, he doesn’t want to cut contact with his former fiancee entirely.
A source recently said: “Dream is the cutest little girl. She is very happy and so much fun to be around. Rob’s family just wants Dream to be raised in the best way possible. Regardless of the issues that Rob is dealing with, it’s pretty clear that the environment that Rob and his family can offer Dream is the healthiest for her. Rob always wanted Dream to spend time with her mom, too.
“He has never wanted Chyna to be cut out of Dream’s life. But, he also doesn’t want Dream to be raised by a nanny while her mom is off partying out of state.”
However, Chyna believes Rob’s backlash is just because he is jealous of her relationship with Kid Buu and Rob was said to be “mad” after Chyna jetted off to Hawaii whilst she was meant to have custody of their daughter Dream.
A source said: “Chyna planned on having Dream stay with a nanny in LA while she was in Hawaii. Rob is mad because if either parent is out of town, the other parent is supposed to have the option to keep Dream longer. Rob doesn’t want Dream to stay alone with a nanny while Chyna parties in Hawaii. This is what he is mad about. She needs to tell him when she won’t be in LA so Rob can keep Dream longer. Rob is getting his lawyer involved.”

Ian Beale among soap characters priced out of today’s property market

OHMYGOSSIP — Ian Beale, Ken Barlow and Eric Pollard are among the soap characters who would have to up sticks if they were purchasing their properties nowadays.
Research by One 77 Mortgages has found the Albert Square resident – portrayed by Adam Woodyatt – wouldn’t be able to afford his Walford house if he had to buy the abode in the current financial climate after the price of his pad increased by a whopping 1,042 per cent.
Ian’s East End home is said to be worth an average £743,046, a fair bit more than the £65,072 it was estimated to be worth when he first stepped foot in Albert Square in 1985, and his typical small business owner salary of £28,759 would leave him a massive £119,850 short of the income required for a mortgage nowadays.
Alastair McKee, managing director of One77 Mortgages, said: “Unfortunately for our best-loved soap stars, the cost of getting on the ladder today would see many of them resigned to the rental sector.
“Luckily for them, they took that first step when prices weren’t as high and as a result have benefited from some very healthy price growth across the board.”
‘Coronation Street’ character Ken (Bill Roache) would also be in a similar situation after his Manchester terraced house soared in value from an estimated £1,664 in 1960 to £209,985 in today’s market.
And despite his wheeling and dealing, Emmerdale’s Eric Pollard (Chris Chittell) would also struggle to find cash for a mortgage on his detached home in Arncliffe, which is worth an average of £459,684 now, compared to £21,389 in 1986.
However, ‘Doctors’ character Jimmi Clay (Adrian Lewis Morgan) would be OK with his GP salary of just shy of £70,000 when securing a mortgage on a terraced house in Birmingham B29.
Alastair added: “Of course, this research is just a bit of fun and in many cases mortgage affordability would be bolstered by a partner or spouses’ income, but it does raise a more serious issue.
“Regardless of property type, profession and location, there is a huge disparity between the price of UK property and the wages on offer and it highlights the struggle facing many aspirational buyers today when trying to secure a mortgage.”

EastEnders’ Sophia Capasso hid behind character to disguise nerves

OHMYGOSSIP — Sophia Capasso overcame her ‘EastEnders’ nerves by hiding behind her “bold and scary” character.
The former ‘Holby City’ star admits she was anxious about her first-ever scene on Albert Square in fried chicken shop McKlunky’s, but because her no-nonsense character is so stern she doesn’t have a chance to show her “nervous” side.
She said: “It was in McKlunky’s – the scene where the phone goes flying across the screen.
“That was actually the part I was most nervous about. It was really scary.
“But because Evie comes in being bold and scary, I could hide behind that, and didn’t have to show too much of my nerves.”
While Sophia can hide behind Evie on-screen, the star doesn’t need to in auditions because she finds them more “exciting” rather than anxiety-filled.
She said: “I used to have really bad nerves, but now I get more excited than nervous.
“Breathing properly is a good tip – three seconds in, three seconds out.
“I think that’s the best help, because it gives you something else to focus on.
“And trusting in yourself that if you’ve done the prep, then there’s nothing else you can do.”
The star admits it is “great fun” portraying the drug-dealing character, but insists she isn’t much like her alter-ego.
She added to Inside Soap magazine: “I don’t think we’re much alike. It’s great fun playing Evie, though, as she doesn’t have any of the boundaries people usually have in everyday life – it’s not often you get to say the sort of things she says.
“But just like every character with a front, there’s a story behind it.”

Billy Corgan reunited with stolen guitar 27 years later

OHMYGOSSIP — Billy Corgan has been reunited with his guitar 27 years after it was stolen.
The Smashing Pumpkins frontman was devastated when his favourite instrument was pinched after the rock band’s concert in Detroit’s Saint Andrew’s Hall in June 1992.
However, on Tuesday (05.02.19), after giving up on the idea of ever seeing the Fender Stratocaster – which he played on the band’s fuzzy rock LP ‘Gish’ – again, he went to visit the guitar after a woman named Beth James got in touch to say she had been sold it at a junk sale in Michigan for $200.
The ‘Cherub Rock’ rocker told Rolling Stone: “Somebody sent me a picture a couple of weeks ago of another one of my guitars, and I wrote the guy back and said, ‘How did you get my guitar?’
“And he wrote back, ‘Oh, it’s a recreation.’
“He’d literally gotten the same stickers, worn them down in the same way and scraped the paint so it looked worn. You could have fooled me.”
A friend of Beth, who wasn’t really into Smashing Pumpkins and kept the instrument in her basement, had noticed how similar it was to Billy’s guitar after a friend showed her a picture of it.
She then decided to contact a music royalties expert she knew, Alex Heiche, who was able to get in touch with the 51-year-old star.
Billy immediately recognised it because it has very distinctive marks from cigarette burns and he’d also painted it himself.
The ‘Stand Inside Your Love’ hitmaker says that the guitar was very special to him because it enabled him to play a certain way.
He said: “It instantly changed the way the band sounded and the way I played.
“When it was stolen, it wasn’t like, ‘Oh, gee, my guitar just got stolen.’
“It was the guitar that affected the way I played and I was heavily identified with the guitar.”
He didn’t say whether or not he will be playing the instrument again when the band tour Europe later this year.

Aerosmith to receive star on Hollywood Walk of Fame

OHMYGOSSIP — Aerosmith will be inducted into the Hollywood Walk of Fame on February 14.
The ‘I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing’ hitmakers – who have released 15 studio album since 1973 – will receive a star on Hollywood Boulevard at a live streamed event, which will be headed up by the President and CEO of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, Rana Ghadban.
The rock legends – Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Brad Whitford, Tom Hamilton and Joey Kramer – never imagined ever getting their own sidewalk tribute.
Bassist Tom told Variety: “The only things I knew to expect from being in a band and making it were girls, money and fame.
“Oh, and being on ‘American Bandstand.’
“I never expected videos, digital recordings, playing in Russia or having a roller coaster at Disney World — never mind a star on Hollywood Blvd.”
Ana Martinez, the producer of the Walk of Fame, said: “Finally! We have been waiting a long time to honour Aerosmith with their star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
“Aerosmith is one of the greatest rock bands in the world and we expect many fans will be ‘Crazy’ excited to see them honoured!”
The ‘Dream On’ hitmakers will mark their 50th anniversary with an 18-date Las Vegas residency entitled ‘Deuces Are Wild’ this April.
The band will kick off their “hot, sexy rock and roll” shows on April 6 at the Park Theater at the new Park MGM in Sin City, with the final date currently scheduled for July 9.
Teasing their “epic” plans, frontman Steven and guitarist Joe said previously: “We are going to bring hot, sexy rock and roll to Vegas!!
“The residency allows us to take 50 years of performing experience and create a one of kind show with the best music, best production design, best sound, in a world-class state of the art venue. These shows will be epic!”
The special gigs will feature “never-seen-before visuals and audio from Aerosmith recording sessions” from producer Giles Martin, who was responsible for The Beatles’ ‘Love’ Cirque du Soleil concerts in the gambling capital.
And it will also see “the world’s first THX Certified live performance presented in L-ISA Immersive Hyperreal Sound”.
The ‘Sweet Emotion’ rockers had fans thinking they were quitting the road when they went out on the ‘Aero-Vederci Baby! Tour’ last year, but they later reassured them that it wouldn’t be the last they’ll see of them with the impending five-decade milestone on the horizon.
Joe said: “I think the way things are going, we are going to try and take it easy.
“We may do a couple more one-offs – maybe some festivals over the next six or eight months.
“In 2019, we will be closing in on our 50th anniversary, so we are planning some dates and a tour to celebrate that. Right now, we are pretty much laying low and finishing up some solo things before we start that.”
Fans of the band will be able to head down to Hollywood Boulevard to watch their idols being inducted into the Walk of Fame from 11.30am on February 14.

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Coronation Street’ won the top prize at the Broadcast Awards on Wednesday night (06.02.19).

Tom Hanks in talks to star in News Of The World

OHMYGOSSIP — Tom Hanks is in talks to star in ‘News Of The World’.
The 62-year-old actor could be set to reunite with director Paul Greengrass – whom he worked with on the 2013 thriller ‘Captain Philips’ – for the upcoming adaptation of the best-selling novel by Paulette Jiles. According to Variety, a deal hasn’t closed yet, but negotiations are taking place.
The ‘Cast Away’ star would play Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd in the forthcoming film, a veteran who travels from town to town, reading the latest newspaper to the largely illiterate locals.
The movie will centre on the friendship between Kidd and a ten-year-old girl he’s tasked with bringing to her relatives in San Antonio, after she spent her childhood living with the Kiowa Indian tribe after she was kidnapped and her family was murdered.
The movie will be penned by Luke Davies and casting is expected to take place soon for the Fox 2000 production.
According to the novel’s official synopsis, the pair’s 400-mile journey “proves difficult and at times dangerous”
It explains: “Johanna has forgotten the English language, tries to escape at every opportunity, throws away her shoes, and refuses to act civilised.
“Yet as the miles pass, the two lonely survivors tentatively begin to trust each other, forging a bond that marks the difference between life and death in this treacherous land.”
Tom recently starred alongside Meryl Streep as newspaper editor Ben Bradlee in ‘The Post’ and will next appear in ‘Toy Story 4’, which he recorded his final ever scenes for last week, after first bringing the beloved Disney Pixar character to life in 1995.
According to the Disney synopsis, the upcoming instalment will centre on Woody’s original love interest Little Bo Peep, reading: “Woody has always been confident about his place in the world, and that his priority is taking care of his kid, whether that’s Andy or Bonnie.”

Kendall Jenner boasts she has best skincare routine of sisters

OHMYGOSSIP — Kendall Jenner thinks she has the best skincare routine of all her sisters.
The 22-year-old model claimed that due to her struggle with acne in the past, she thinks she might be the “master” of skincare as her sisters, Kim, Kourtney, Khloe Kardashian, and Kylie Jenner all have “beautiful skin”.
In an interview with Allure magazine, she said: “I honestly might need to take credit for this one, only because they haven’t really struggled with breakouts. Khloe did a little bit when she was really young, and then Rob [Kardashian] a bit when he was really young but he’s not my sister. They all have beautiful skin. So I will talk myself up and say that I might be the [skin-care] master in the family.”
Despite the ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star’s current glowing complexion, the beauty began suffering with acne when she started high school and she’s admitted she was so convinced fellow students were always staring at her face, she’d go home devastated on a regular basis.
She previously shared a throwback photo on her Instagram Story and wrote: “#10yearchallenge I was 13 and ran home crying every day because people would stare at my skin (sic)”
These days, Kendall is delighted with the way her skin has improved and contrasted the teenage photo with a recent one of herself without make-up.
She wrote: “Yesterday on film. Zero make-up.”
Kendall also admitted her battle with her skin left her feeling “anxious, helpless and insecure”.
She shared a bare-faced photo on Instagram and in a lengthy post wrote: “While there are much bigger problems happening in the world, suffering from acne for me was debilitating. It’s something that I’ve dealt with since I was a young teen and has caused me to feel anxious, helpless and insecure.”

Charlotte Tilbury’s new lipsticks inspired by 90s supermodels

OHMYGOSSIP — Charlotte Tilbury’s new lipstick range is inspired by 90s supermodels.
The 45-year-old beauty mogul revealed that her latest limited-edition Supermodel Lips collection, which includes three nudes in the brand’s Matte Revolution formula was influenced by the likes of Claudia Schiffer, Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss, who were “trailblazers” of the nude lip trend.
Speaking to British Vogue, she said: “The 90s were when the nudes were born! It was all about tone-on-tone – a sumptuous, pillowy, nude lipstick paired with a darker, browner lip liner – it was the Supers’ trademark look.
“Claudia, Cindy, Naomi and Kate were trailblazers for this trend. Over the years, it is a look which is ever-evolving but always relevant, always desirable, and always wearable!
“I wanted to give a nod to the 90s, channelling the effortless attitude of that natural beauty, but in a modern way. These are the ultimate fashion nude lips that everyone needs in their make-up bag.”
The new product, which is designed to suit all skin tones, comes in three shades; Super Nineties, Super Model and Super Sex and offer a brown, pink or red nude finish.
The make-up artist explained that the lipstick was designed to be “completely universal” and the complexion warming shades enhances the natural colour of everyone’s lips.
She said: “All three shades are completely universal. Super Sexy, Super Nineties and Super Model are the LBDs of lipsticks and like all classics, these nudes look great on everyone.
“The genius of each complexion-warming shade is that when you apply it, it enhances the natural colour of your lips.
“So not only do they suit everyone, at every age, but the difference in colour payoff means that everyone can become the most super gorgeous versions of themselves!”
