Ricky Martin Was Overwhelmed When He Revealed His Sexuality to His Parents

Ricky Martin was overwhelmed with emotion when he finally revealed his sexuality to his mother and father - because they welcomed the news by expressing their unconditional love for the singer. The "Livin' La Vida Loca" hitmaker 'came out' as a gay man in March after wrestling with his feelings for years, and he admits he was prepared for a difficult talk with his parents when he decided to come clean about his chosen lifestyle.

But he was surprised when his mum and dad revealed they were already aware of his homosexuality. Martin tells U.S. news show Access Hollywood, "(Mum) asked me, 'Baby, are you in love?' And I said, 'Yeah mum, I am in love.' And she asked me, 'Is it a man?' and I thought, 'Wow, this is gonna be easier than what I thought.' And I said, 'Yes mum, it's a man.' "

"I was extremely surprised and then she said, 'Come on, give me a hug. You're my son and I love you, and I will always be here for you.' So it was very beautiful. My father... he kinda told me. I wanted to tell him and he said, 'You don't have to say a word. I love you and I just want you to be happy.' "

Charlie Sheen's estranged wife Brooke Mueller has dismissed reports she checked into rehab on America's Thanksgiving holiday.

After a short spell in the clinic, Mueller returned home to Los Angeles, but reports emerged over the weekend suggesting she had spent Thanksgiving morning in rehab as part of her ongoing treatment for stress management issues.

However, Mueller has dismissed the story and insists she is perfectly healthy. She tells UsMagazine.com, "I did not go to rehab. The story is ridiculous. I am healthy and happy."

Guest Editor Elton John Didn't Prepared to Write About Royal Wedding

Guest Editor Elton John Didn't Prepared to Write About Royal Wedding

Elton John insists he'll contain his excitement about the 2011 royal wedding when he guest edits an upcoming issue of British newspaper The Independent - because he fears the media has gone overboard with its coverage of the big news.

The knighted pop superstar, who was a friend of groom-to-be Prince William's late mother Princess Diana - and performed at her funeral, insists he won't be turning his special issue into a royal wedding tribute. He says, "There's not going to be much about the royal wedding in there. I think we've had enough of that for the time being."

But Elton is hoping to be able to perform at the nuptials, which will take place in London next April. He jokes, "I'll probably be busking outside." The "Rocket Man" hitmaker is expected to be right at the top of William's wish list as he plans his wedding to fiancee Kate Middleton.

Elton, who performed a reworked version of his classic "Candle in the Wind" at Diana's 1997 funeral, will guest edit The Independent newspaper on December 1 - World Aids Day. All circulation revenue from that day's edition will go towards the Rocket Man's AIDS foundation.

Many Celebrities to Quit Twitter for Charity

Many Celebrities to Quit Twitter for Charity

Alicia Keys has successfully urged her celebrity friends to quit Twitter and make it worthwhile at the same time. From Lady GaGa to Kim Kardashian, a number of stars have joined Keys' initiative to raise money for charity by quitting the microblogging site as well as Facebook for a period of time.

Called Digital Life Sacrifice, the campaign would see the entertainers ditching the digital world starting Wednesday, December 1 aka World AIDS day until they raise a million dollars for Keys' AIDS charity, Keep a Child Alive. In addition, they would also film "last tweet and testament" videos and appear in ads that show them lying in coffins to reflect what they mean by "digital deaths".

"It's really important and super-cool to use mediums that we naturally are on," Keys told The Associated Press. She added, "This is such a direct and instantly emotional way and a little sarcastic, you know, of a way to get people to pay attention."

She further revealed that all the celebrities whom she approached did not hesitate to say yes. They are Keys' husband Swizz Beatz, Justin Timberlake, Jennifer Hudson, Serena Williams, Elijah Wood, Usher, Khloe Kardashian, Janelle Monae and Ryan Seacrest.

Most of these stars have more than a million followers who could easily contribute a dollar each to fulfill the goal. GaGa in particular has more than 7.2 million followers on Twitter. "I have a feeling that GaGa is going to raise it all by herself," Leigh Blake, the president and co-founder of Keep a Child Alive said.

Donations are accepted through text messages and bar-code technology which is featured in the charity's Buy Life campaign. For more details head on to KeepAChildAlive.org.

Paul Weller Thinks Facebook Is a Waste of Time

Paul Weller Thinks Facebook Is a Waste of Time

Rocker Paul Weller will not be joining Facebook any time soon - he's blasted social networking websites as "distracting" and a waste of time. The former The Jam frontman's representatives have set up an account on the popular site to keep fans up-to-date with his album releases and tour dates.

But the singer/songwriter is adamant he avoids using networking websites himself, because he's convinced they have a negative effect on society. Weller takes aim at Facebook in a song on his latest album "Wake Up the Nation", and he tells NME, "I do think that technology is good for certain things, but I do also think that the a**e end of that is there's just a lot of time wasted, staring at a screen, talking to cyber-friends. And I don't get that, really."

"I think it's a way of distracting people from what's really happening. I do think there's an element of that. I think it's the new opium of the masses, personally. All the things that I don't like about that... I would have thought that would be enough for any new generation to kick against."

John Travolta and Kelly Preston Will Have A Baby Boy

John Travolta and Kelly Preston Will Have A Baby Boy

A long-waited moment has finally arrived. On Tuesday, November 23, Hollywood couple John Travolta and Kelly Preston welcomed a new addition to their family, a baby boy named Benjamin, who weighed 8 lbs., 3 oz. and will join his family at Thanksgiving table, People reported.

Kelly gave birth to Benjamin at an undisclosed Florida hospital and spokeswoman Samantha Mast has released a statement to share the joy. "John, Kelly and their daughter Ella Bleu are ecstatic and very happy about the newest member of the family. Both mother and baby are healthy and doing beautifully," the statement read.

Newly-born Benjamin joins 10-year-old sibling Ella Bleu Travolta, who has been "looking forward to being a big sister". Benjamin is the third child for John and Kelly who has been married since 1991. The couple's first son, Jett Travolta, died of a seizure at the age of 16 in January 2009.

John Travolta and Kelly Preston first announced that they were expecting a baby boy in late August. The "Old Dogs" actress at that time gushed about her pregnancy, saying "It's been very easy and so wonderful. I've had no morning sickness and (the pregnancy) has gone by so quickly. I feel terrific. I can't wait for the day to come."

John was also as impatient as Kelly about the labor. The "Wild Hogs" actor previously claimed, "When I left, she was having what they call Braxton Hicks, the fake labor, and we were both a little worried... I'm ready to go at any minute, if she started having labor now we would leave and take 22 hours to get home, but I'll get there."

Rihanna Will Be a Mom in a Year From Now

Rihanna Will Be a Mom in a Year From Now

Rihanna is beginning to think about starting a family with baseball player boyfriend Matt Kemp, but insists she'd have to put her career on hold to become a mum. The pop star, who debuted her new album "Loud" in the U.S. top five on Wednesday, insists she's not pregnant right now but accepts she could be a first-time mum in a year.

She tells Interview magazine, "It could be a year from now. It could be 10 years from now. Whenever is right. I mean, I have a lot of other stuff to accomplish before I get to kids. Whenever the time is right, I'll just know." And she insists she'll make a great mum - unless her first child is a daughter: "If I had a girl, she'd probably be really rebellious. She would be like a bundle of karma."

Rihanna is also considering where she'd like to raise a family, admitting her dream of returning home to Barbados is a little far fetched. She adds, "I can't live that far away from everything now, without kids, so I certainly couldn't raise kids (there) with the demanding schedule that I have."

Miley Cyrus Had Dinner With Liam Hemsworth

Miley Cyrus Had Dinner With Liam Hemsworth

After having new rumored lover Avan Jogia at her pre-birthday bash, Miley Cyrus was reportedly accompanied by her old flame, Liam Hemsworth, when she officially turned 18 on Tuesday, November 23. According to X17 Online, Miley and Liam spent Tuesday night together at sushi restaurant Matsuda in the San Fernando Valley.

Miley and Liam allegedly had a casual dinner with a group of friends. Of the gathering, a source told the site, "Miley was relaxed and having fun and of course there was a connection between her and Liam. They dated for so long and were so serious it's like they can't deny their special relationship with each other."

Though so, Miley and Liam managed to avoid being photographed together. While the Australian heartthrob left the restaurant through the back door, the "LOL: Laughing Out Loud" actress and her pals met the paparazzi outside the venue to distract them.

Despite the dinner, there has been no word on whether or not Miley and Liam are back together. Following their second split earlier this month, Miley has been romantically linked to Avan. The two were recently photographed engaged in a heavy make-out session. Liam himself was also spotted getting cozy with model Yolanda Vendy at a nightclub in Melbourne.

Portia de Rossi Comes Under Fire from A Top TV Host

Portia de Rossi Comes Under Fire from A Top TV Host

Actress Portia de Rossi has come under fire from a top TV host in her native Australia after allegedly refusing to be interviewed by male journalists while promoting her new book Down Under. The former "Ally McBeal", who is married to comedienne Ellen DeGeneres, is currently on a promotional tour for her memoirs, "Unbearable Lightness: A Story of Loss and Gain". The book chronicles her battles with anorexia and her sexuality.

But the star has caused controversy in Australia after reportedly insisting that no men interview her. David Koch, the host of hit morning show "Sunrise", reveals he was furious when the actress' team asked for his co-host, Melissa Doyle, to chat to the star via satellite from Los Angeles - accusing the actress of "discrimination".

He tells the Sydney Morning Herald, "If a male said I don't want to be interviewed by a woman, there would be a massive outcry of discrimination. Obviously she has got issues and I feel quite sorry for her... I admire what she and Ellen have done for community tolerance and inclusiveness. But it is a real contradiction for what she stands for, which really surprises me. Maybe she is uncomfortable with men, but she plays opposite male leads."

De Rossi has also reportedly turned down the chance to chat to male radio double-act Hamish Blake and Andy Lee on their hit show.

Eva Longoria Files for Divorce

Eva Longoria Files for Divorce

Eva Longoria has filed for divorce from husband of three years, NBA basketball star Tony Parker. The "Desperate Housewives" star entered the divorce papers in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Wednesday morning, November 17, citing irreconcilable differences for the split, seeking spousal support and requesting her name to be restored from Parker's name to Eva Jacqueline Longoria, Us Magazine reported.

Furthermore, according to TMZ, the separation is caused by Tony's infidelity. Eva was said telling "Extra" host Mario Lopez that she found hundreds of text messages from another woman on Tony's phone. The "Over Her Dead Body" actress also reportedly told Mario that the other woman is the wife of Tony's teammate, who according to the site is San Antonio Spurs star Brent Barry. Brent's wife, Erin Barry, is said to be the woman behind Tony and Eva's split.

Brent, who played with Tony from 2004 to 2008, is also in the middle of a divorce from wife Erin. Of the report that Erin was having affair with Tony, Brent's father, NBA Hall of Famer Rick Barry, said, "I feel horrible for my son. I'm in shock. I knew (Erin) was moving out of the house soon and she was the one that filed for divorce. This is the straw that broke the camel's back. (Brent) is going to be devastated. I can't even imagine him going through this... the divorce was hard enough news."

Sources told Us Weekly that Eva recently discovered Tony had exchanged texts with female friend for nearly a year and hundreds of texts in just one month. "Eva is heartbroken by the betrayal," one insider told the publication, adding that Tony confessed the adultery after Eva confronted him. "Once the trust was lost, the marriage was over," another source added. "Eva truly thought she was going to grow old with Tony and have children with him. She's inconsolable."

Meanwhile, Eva has also broken her silence amidst the separation report. On Wednesday, the 35-year-old beauty wrote on her Twitter page, "It is with great sadness that after 7 years together, Tony and I have decided to divorce. We love each other deeply and pray for each other's happiness." Mario Lopez told People that the break-up decision wasn't easy, telling People "She is devastated, she wants us all to know that. But she's strong."

Eva Longoria and Tony Parker wed in a civil service on July 6, 2007, at the Mairie (city hall for the 4th Arrondissement) in Place Baudoyer, not far from Notre Dame. The soon-to-be divorced couple had their second wedding ceremony at Paris' Eglise Saint-Germain l'Auxerrois, the following day.

Silent Movie Star Marie Osborne Yeats Died

Silent Movie Star Marie Osborne Yeats Died

Silent movie era child star Marie Osborne Yeats has died just six days after celebrating her 99th birthday. The actress and Hollywood costume supervisor, nicknamed Baby Marie Osborne, became the youngest leading lady in Tinseltown when she starred in films like "Little Mary Sunshine".

Yeats died at her home in San Clemente, California on November 11. She played a boy in her first film when director Henry King needed a kid for his 1915 movie "The Maid of The Wind". He discovered her at the age of three.

Impressed with his find, King went on to shape her career, writing 'Little Mary Sunshine" just for her. Her success launched a range of Baby Marie dolls, but her career was short-lived - her final starring role came in 1919 in the comedy "Miss Gingersnap".

She returned to Hollywood in the 1930s and 1940s and occasionally worked as a stand-in actress for Ginger Rogers, Deanna Durbin and Betty Hutton. But she found her true calling in the 1950s when she took a job as a costumer and worked on films like "Spartacus", "The Way We Were" and "Mame". She also supervised Elizabeth Taylor's wardrobe in "Cleopatra".

Doctor Urged Oksana Grigorieva to Have Brain Scan

Doctor Urged Oksana Grigorieva to Have Brain Scan

Oksana Grigorieva's doctor feared the singer had suffered a concussion after her alleged bust-up with ex-boyfriend Mel Gibson - and urged her to go for a brain scan. The former couple is currently fighting it out in the courts for custody of their daughter Lucia after splitting earlier this year.

The Russian beauty has since accused the actor of attacking her during an argument in January, alleging she suffered severe bruising and had two of her teeth knocked out during the fight. And in a declaration submitted to the courts, her physician, Dr. Arthur Gordon, claims he was concerned about abnormalities in Grigorieva's right eye after she came to him claiming she felt nauseous and dizzy following the alleged altercation.

In the papers, Dr. Gordon states, "She was hit in the head the day before and that since that time she had been suffering from nausea, headaches and dizziness, as well as 'aches all over'." According to TMZ.com, the declaration says Dr. Gordon recommended she went to hospital to have a scan to ensure she didn't have internal bleeding. However, she decided against going to the emergency room.

Grigorieva is set to reveal all about her alleged abuse at the hands of Gibson in a special interview with U.S. newsman Larry King set to air in America on Wednesday, November 17.

Artwork owned by late actor Dennis Hopper has fetched over $10 million at auction. The pieces came under the spotlight before the "Easy Rider" star's death in May, when he filed legal papers accusing his estranged wife Victoria Duffy of stealing artworks from him while he was battling cancer.

The collection of over 40 pieces, including a portrait of the actor by Andy Warhol and works by Robert Graham and British graffiti artist Banksy, went under the hammer at Christie's auction house in New York last week.

The New York Post reports the lot fetched just over $10 million. Another sale of Hopper's artwork is expected to take place in January 2011.

'Mike and Molly' Star to Lose Weight by Trying 'Crazy' Diet

'Mike and Molly' Star to Lose Weight by Trying 'Crazy' Diet

"Mike & Molly" star Billy Gardell is set to embark on a healthy new lifestyle - he's ready to lose weight and keep it off for good. In the new TV hit, Gardell plays an overweight cop desperate to shed some pounds - and the actor admits he wants to do the same in real life, after tipping the scales at 350 pounds.

But the heavyweight star has vowed to take his time with the challenge after several failed attempts at fad diets. He tells KnoxNews.com, "I think (TV bosses) will let us drop some weight if we choose to. I think I am at that place, healthwise... I'm 40. I have pushed this long enough."

"I have learned slow is better for me. I have tried every crazy (kind) of diet, and it works for two or three weeks then I snap. Now that I am making a little bit more money, I might get myself a nutritionist, maybe a trainer, and take it a step at a time."

Gardell hit the headlines last month after a Marie Claire journalist published a controversial online article ranting about the sitcom's overweight stars.

Sophia Bush Says She's Not Engaged to Austin Nichols

Sophia Bush Says She's Not Engaged to Austin Nichols

It turned out that report mentioning "One Tree Hill" beauty Sophia Bush and her co-star Austin Nichols are engaged is nothing but a hoax. The 28-year-old actress put the record straight by taking it on her Twitter page on Thursday, November 11, writing "Sorry y'all, we're not engaged!"

"Shooting a TV wedding, not a real one! Hahaha," Sophia went on, before adding "Must be a slow week in the gossip world." The engagement news was first run by Star magazine and quickly picked by other sites. A source told Star that Sophia and Austin "plan to get married soon".

Sophia Bush and Austin Nichols have been dating on and off since 2006 but just confirmed the romance in May this year. "We've been dating off and on for the past four years. I was pretty terrified," she said. "We had so many years of history prior to him coming to work on the show, and I think someone taking a job and moving their life across the country to show you how much they care is pretty much the most romantic gesture that a person could make."

Sophia was previously married to another "One Tree Hill" star, Chad Michael Murray, but their 2005 nuptials lasted just five months. As for Austin, he previously dated artist Claire Oswalt for seven years but the then-couple called off their engagement in 2004.

John Mayer and Giada De Laurentiis Respons to Their 'Steamy Hookup' Report

John Mayer and Giada De Laurentiis Respons to Their 'Steamy Hookup' Report

John Mayer refused to stand still over report that he had a "steamy hookup with Giada De Laurentiis", a Food Network star and married chef. "The claims are absolutely ridiculous," a rep for the "Your Body Is a Wonderland" hitmaker told PopEater.

And it wasn't only John who slammed the allegation, Giada did the same thing as well. The 40-year-old beauty first took it to her Twitter page on Wednesday, November 10, writing "I'm heartbroken this morning to find out how MALICIOUS the tabloids can be... I've been linked to John Mayer in NY."

Furthermore, Giada's rep wrote on her official blog to put an end to the rumor and slam Star Magazine, the first site which run the story. "It is a shame a media outlet such as Star needs to rely on disgraceful lies and hide behind false anonymous 'sources' in order to entertain their readers," Giada's rep wrote. "To be clear, they are not friends and cannot even go so far as to call John Mayer an acquaintance. There is not a sliver of truth to Starmagazine's story," the rep added. "It is unfortunate Star would publish these malicious untruths without reporting the fact that Giada was with her husband Todd that weekend in New York, along with their family and friends."

John and Giada began romantically linked after Star Magazine reported that the two were involved in a steamy romance at the Boom Boom Room at The Standard hotel in New York. "John had one hand on the small of her back," a source was quoted as saying. "They looked like two people who were going to go home together."

The site went further with claim that John and Giada, on the earlier night, were spotted at the nearby Hotel Gansevoort where they disappeared into a suite together. A source close to the "Bigger Than My Body" singer said, "This doesn't surprise me one bit! He's always talked about how he was into her."

However, when asked about the hotel sighting, Giada told the site, "I was at The Standard that night. I've met him and he's a great guy, but I just like his music. That's all." And her rep's recent statement also explained, "Contrary to the claims of an anonymous 'source,' at no time did Giada step foot in the Gansevoort Hotel. Giada indeed met John Mayer briefly at a charity event in 2007 but has not seen him since."

Lady GaGa Obtaines A Restraining Order against A Fan Who Sent A Menacing Letter

Lady GaGa Obtaines A Restraining Order against A Fan Who Sent A Menacing Letter

Lady GaGa has obtained a restraining order against a fan who allegedly sent the pop star a menacing letter. The "Bad Romance" singer is said to have been left fearing for her life after Russian student Anastasia Obukhova sent her a creepy note describing her "dream" of dying together.

The message, which was intercepted by GaGa's management team, read: "You come to my dreams. I want to die and I want to die together with you. I am not (John Lennon's assassin) Mark Chapman. It is not only you who will die. I will shoot a bullet through my head too."

The 26 year old, who lives in New York, has been ordered to keep her distance from GaGa and stay at least 500 yards away from her at all times. Chapman is behind bars after shooting the Beatles legend dead outside his New York apartment in 1980.

Rep Rejects to Admit Keith Richards Smacked a Journalist

Rep Rejects to Admit Keith Richards Smacked a Journalist

Keith Richards showed his feisty temper to a critic who once gave The Rolling Stones a bad review by allegedly smacking him in the head at a hotel in Paris, France on Tuesday, November 9. The guitarist spent 10 minutes chatting to Markus Larsson before remembering the Swedish journalist had called the band "amateurs" in 2007 and gave their concert in Gothenburg, Sweden two out of five stars.

According to Spinner.com, which quotes an article in Sweden's Aftonbladets, Richards demanded an apology for the poor rating before getting into an argument with the writer. The publication claims, "The meeting ended with the rock star threatening Markus Larsson and hitting him in the head."

Larsson adds, "His eyes got black and he was absolutely furious. He stood up and asked if we would put out the lights and settle the disagreement straight away. At first I was just surprised, I thought he was pulling my leg (joking), but then I realized he was serious and then I felt uncomfortable and I just wanted to get out of there pretty fast."

Larsson claims the star also ranted, "You're lucky to get out of here alive" before storming out of the Le Meurice Hotel in the French capital.

However, Richards' spokesperson has come up with clarification to Rolling Stone, saying "At the conclusion of the 20 minute interview Keith Richards jokingly tapped the journalist on the head after his questions got a bit silly. From the people in the room during the interview they would suggest that the writer has allowed his imagination to get the better of him."

Adriana Lima, Katy Perry and More Appear at 2010 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show

A number of top models have run the catwalk at 2010 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show held at the Lexington Armory in New York City on Wednesday, November 10, showing off a series of glamorous lingerie. Though the annual gala won't air until Tuesday, November 30 on CBS at 10 P.M. ET/PT., pictures of the event have been made available.

That night, most of the models transformed themselves into angels as each of them had their own wings. However, Adriana Lima was the luckiest catwalker as she was given the honor to model a $2 million diamond-encrusted bra. The Bombshell Fantasy Bra weighs in 142 carats which include more than 3,000 white diamonds (60 carats) and 82 carats of light blue sapphires and oval-shaped topazes.

Model Julia Stegner showcased a white and gold lingerie set in white wings while Karolina Kurkova graced the runway in an animal printed set and huge peacock wings. Lais Ribeiro walked along with warrior male models as she was wrapped in a dark number and clamp wings. Candace Swanepoel, in the meantime, showed up like a milkmaid in a red and white outfit and Flavia de Oliveira donned a sparkling silver and purple set while carrying weights.

Other supermodels who walked down the Victoria's Secret's runway were Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Alessandra Ambrosio, Erin Heatherton, Lily Aldridge, Candice Swanepoel and Chanel Iman. Meanwhile, Serena Williams, Adrian Grenier, Nicky Hilton, Paris Hilton, Gerard Butler, Malin Ackerman, Jared Followill, Caleb Followill and Adam Levine made appearances at the event.

Beside big stars sitting on the guest seats, the event was also dazzled with the performances of Katy Perry and Akon. Katy sang her own hits, including "Teenage Dream", ''Hot 'N Cold" and "California Gurls". She performed in two different outfits - a purple skimpy number and a two-eye-popping PVC dress. Akon treated the audience with his new single "Angel".
