Why Cheryl Cole is still not ready to kiss and make up with pop rival Lily Allen

By Chris Johnson

Cheryl Cole goes all Gothic on the cover of Q magazine


One person Cheryl Cole will not be bringing good tidings to this Christmas is her famous foe Lily Allen.

Rather than forgive and forget their run of public spats over the years, Cheryl has reopened their bitter feud in a no-bars-held interview.

The 26-year-old Girls Aloud star appears on the cover of the February edition of Q magazine in a Gothic inspired photoshoot.

With dark eye make-up, red wine lips, drenched hair and with a spiked metal ring, the X Factor judge shows she is force to be reckoned with.

In the interview, the star said she was unrepentant about branding Lily a 'chick with a d***' back in 2007.

Cheryl made the comments on Gordon Ramsay's F Word show after Lily had publicly branded her husband Ashley Cole 'horrendous' and her bandmate Nicola Roberts 'the ugly one'.

Speaking to Q magazine, she recalled: 'She called my husband "horrendous".
'Then she called Nicola "ugly". For another female artist to call you ugly is so awful.

'Nicola’s been called ‘ginger’ all her life, then she makes something of herself and everyone calls her the "ugly one".

'I feel very protective of her and if that means I’m going to call Lily ‘whatever’, then I don’t care.'

Cheryl also revealed that she initially thought Lily was being 'complimentary' in her 2006 B-Side track Cheryl Tweedy (Tweedy being Cheryl's maiden name).


Cheryl says she feels protective of flame-haired Nicola, see here with the rest of her Girls Aloud bandmates Nadine Coyle (L), Kimberley Walsh and Sarah Harding

The lyrics included the chorus: 'I wish my life was a little less seedy / Why am I always so greedy? / Wish I looked just like Cheryl Tweedy.'
But Lily later commented: 'I was being ironic. Nobody wants to look like that.'
Cheryl also told the magazine about her doubts over the band's 2004 hit Love Machine.
She added: 'I remember listening to Love Machine and thinking, "We cannot put this crap out," that’s what I said to the label: it sounds like something Busted would do.

'Then it went to Number 2. I was, like, Oh right. OK. I’ll keep quiet.'

Rihanna sings through a blizzard in a skimpy bodice as snow storm hits New York

Baby, it's cold outside: Rihanna performed in a cropped black bodice and short fur coat in the snow at the Rockefeller Plaza in New York on Saturday


For most people, the onslaught of snow and freezing temperatures of -6 Celsius would have most dashing indoors for our winter warmers.

Despite wearing a flesh-baring cropped bodice, Rihanna bravely sang her way through a blizzard as she performed during an open-air concert in New York City on Saturday.

Ever the professional, the 21-year-old singer refused to leave the stage as she joined Jay-Z to pre-record a performance for a televised New Year's Eve special.

The pair bravely sang through the blizzard as up to nine and 11 inches of snow landed in the Big Apple.

Rihanna and her mentor Jay-Z were performing for the upcoming New Year's Eve With Carson Daly, which will be screened next week on US TV network NBC.

The singer was her usual flamboyant self in a minuscule black lace bodice, furry jacket and floral hat as she put on an energetic set.


Chilly duet: Rihanna and Jay-Z sing through the snow


Revealing: Ever the professional, Rihanna kept on singing


At one point, it was clear even the singer was starting to feel the cold as she put on a longer, hooded fur coat over her skimpy attire.

While Americans will be watching Rihanna on their TVs when they welcome 2010, Rihanna will actually be thousands of miles away in Abu Dhabi.

Rihanna will play a huge New Year's Eve concert at the Emirates Palace next week.
Meanwhile, the singer admitted she admires Lady GaGa, who just like Rihanna, is famed for her flamboyant style choices.

'Maybe I am cold after all': Rihanna later changed into a bigger coat

She said: 'She has a very bold, fearless image
'I have to say, I have so much respect for original artists and artists who aren't afraid to do what they want to do.

'That's what I respect most, so she's awesome.'

Rihanna is currently preparing to release her new single Hard, her second from her latest album Rated R.

'She can sing and act, but not together': Mixed reviews as Catherine Zeta-Jones makes glamorous Broadway debut

By Lizzie Smith

In recent months, Catherine Zeta-Jones has been criticised for dressing years beyond her age.

But last night she was every inch the glamorous star as she attended the opening night of her new Broadway show in New York.

Dressed in a floor-length navy gown, with plunging neckline, the actress oozed sophistication.

Back to her best: Catherine Zeta-Jones attends the after party for the opening night of her Broadway show A Little Night Music in New York


Stunning: Catherine wore a simple fur and carried a black handbag as she left


Catherine, 40, kept the accessories simple but stunning with diamond and pearl drop earrings, and an understated slick of lipstick.

But while her glamorous looks won her rave reviews in A Little Light Music, and her singing voice was praised, Catherine's acting was criticised by some.

The Guardian's Emma Brockes said: 'While [she] can act and sing, she can't do both at once in this production - at least not in one take.'

While the AP's Michael Kuchwara wrote: 'Zeta-Jones has a throaty, sensuous voice which she uses to good, flirty effect....


Heading home: Michael Douglas turned out to support his actress wife


'She is much better in the musical's quieter scenes and shines in Act 2 during her rendition of the show's best-known song, "Send in the Clowns," a touching moment of grown-up introspection.'

Ben Brantley of The New York Times declared: 'In addition to being drop-dead gorgeous... Ms Zeta-Jones brings a decent voice, a supple dancer's body and a vulpine self-possession to her first appearance on Broadway.'

Catherine and husband Michael Douglas have temporarily relocated to the Big Apple while she stars in the play.

The musical, which opened last night, is fast becoming one of the hottest tickets on Broadway, with tickets selling for $300 on eBay.


Hot ticket: Catherine and her co-star Alexander Hanson


She plays Swedish actress Desirée Armfeldt alongside Angela Lansbury as her mother Madame Armfeldt in the Trevor Nunn revival of the 1973 play.

Catherine began her career on the stage, before finding fame in the TV series The Darling Buds Of May.

She told the Evening Standard after last night's show: 'I can't believe it's taken me 20 years to actually do this. It's quite shocking because I love the camaraderie and I just love the theatre life. It was just like going back home to a family.'

Asked when she would be performing in front of British theatregoers again, she said: 'Now it's back in my blood and I'm back on the boards, it may be sooner than they want it to be.'

Period drama: Alexander Hanson, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Angela Lansbury


Taking a bow: Catherine appears at the curtain call

Catherine said there were similarities between her own life and that of Desiree, a veteran actress reunited with an ex-lover.

She said: 'I have lived a bit of the life of a gypsy the way that Desiree has. I've found the love of life in my husband - I'm not searching for that at this particular point in my life.'

The production means Catherine and her family will spend the next few months living in the New York instead of their usual Bermuda home.

As well as marking her Broadway debut, Catherine will also be promoting her new film The Rebound, which is scheduled for release in April.
The romantic comedy stars the actress as a single mother who falls for her children's babysitter soon after her divorce.

Cheryl Cole shows off her glamorous new look as a sexy señorita in TV special

Hold tight: Cheryl Cole dances with American professional Derek Hough as she sings her song Parachute on her TV special Cheryl Cole's Night In


She's already shown her talents as a singer, model and TV judge.

But Cheryl Cole shows there is another string to her bow after she performs a sexy Latin dance on her upcoming TV special Cheryl Cole's Night In.

The 26-year-old teams up with American Latin champion Derek Hough - who appears on Dancing With The Stars - to perform a dance to her new song Parachute.

Nervous: Cheryl looks apprehensive as she performs her Latin routine with a troupe of professional dancers

Backed by a troupe of Latin dancers in black and red, Cheryl showed off her petite figure in a hot pink tiered skirt and asymmetrical sequinned body as she worked the dancefloor.

With her dark hair swept back into a tight bun and cherry lipstick, Cheryl looks every inch the Spanish Senorita as she performs the sexy sequence.

The Latin dance is just one of three songs from her No.1 solo album 3 Words that Cheryl will perform on her hour long ITV special on Saturday night.

As well performing her debut solo single Fight For This Love in a pink Ninja outfit, Cheryl also changes into a glamorous flowing black gown for her 3 Words duet with Will.I.Am.

Dramatic: Cheryl duets with Black Eyed Peas rapper Will.I.Am on 3 Words in a Kate Bush-esque flowing black gown


Good friends: Will.I.Am talks about working with Cheryl

The Black Eyed Peas rapper recorded five tracks with Cheryl for her solo album in Los Angeles last summer.

With their duet 3 Words set for release on December 18, the show provides a perfect marketing opportunity for Cheryl.

Britney Spears, there's an app for that

By Ami Angelowicz, The Frisky

(TheFrisky.com) -- Because celebrities haven't taken over every millimeter of your existence quite yet, some intrepid folks of note are coming to an iPhone near you.

That's right, having your favorite celeb at your fingertips 24/7 is the wave of the future. Last week, Britney Spears joined the trend, launching her very own iPhone app, "It's Britney!" For the modest cost of $1.99, you can easily get messages, news, photos, and Twitter updates from Brit. There is even a sparkler feature, so when you go to her next show you can hold up your phone instead of a lighter.

The best feature though, in my opinion, is the Shake Shake Shake option, which makes your phone yell, "It's Britney, bi**h!" every time you shake your phone. All in all, this sounds like ... a big waste of two dollars.

Push Shaq: For $1, you will receive an instant notification whenever Shaquille O'Neal updates his Twitter account. I'm wondering how that is different from checking his Twitter page obsessively for free? I call foul on this app.

Hammer Time: Everyone ... it's Hammer Time! For 99 cents, you can keep tabs on has-been MC Hammer. The latest from Hammer? His comeback tour with Vanilla Ice was canceled for the second time. I think I might purchase this one just because no one else will.

The Frisky: Melissa Etheridge says new mammogram guidelines are phooey

The Chad Ochocinco Experience: For all of you football fans out there, you may want to purchase the Chad Ochocinco Experience for $2.99. You get whereabouts, stats, photos and sound bytes from one of the NFL's most colorful characters. You can also ask the man himself for advice through a "What Would Ocho Do?" feature. I'm not into football, but this app sounds like it could be fun.

The Frisky: Hints of Chris Brown on Rihanna's "Rated R" album

Coldplay "Strawberry Swing": Okay ... this is my kind of app. Free and fun. This app features the new video for "Strawberry Swing" off the "Viva La Vida" album, all of the band's previous videos, and a "Strawberry Swing" video game where you can help Chris Martin rescue a princess from flying squirrels. Yes, please!

Happy 50th birthday, 'Rocky & Bullwinkle'

By Katie McLaughlin, CNN
Even at 50 years old, Rocky & Bullwinkle are still busy: An animated Dreamworks feature film is in development.

(CNN) -- Fifty years ago, Jay Ward's animated moose and squirrel duo, "Rocky & Bullwinkle," debuted on ABC, forever changing the way the world looked at animated television.

His daughter, Tiffany Ward, continues her father's legacy as executive producer of the feature films "The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle, "Dudley Do-Right" and "George of the Jungle," and Cartoon Network's (sister channel to CNN) new "George of the Jungle" animated TV series.

"My dad was a true eccentric," Ward said. "His studio was a wonderland for me. It had a soda fountain, ice cream sundaes, a snow cone machine, a popcorn maker and candy bars everywhere."

Tiffany Ward grew up in Berkeley, California, and didn't move to Hollywood until 1959 at age 13 when her dad set up his television studio.

"Dad was always doing fun things," Ward said, recalling a 1961 Sunset Boulevard block party her father hosted to promote "The Bullwinkle Show." The show was originally named "Rocky and his Friends," but was renamed "The Bullwinkle Show" when the program went from ABC to NBC.

Ward was a one-man public relations machine, churning out first-rate promos in the days before PR companies were entrenched in the system.

In another promotional stunt, Jay Ward tried to buy an island between Minnesota and Canada that he named Moosylvania (he leased it instead). In efforts to have Moosylvania made into the 51st state, Ward traveled cross-country by bus, collecting signatures along the way.

When Ward reached the White House gates, he asked to speak to President John F. Kennedy about statehood for Moosylvania, but guards brusquely turned him away. As it turned out, Kennedy was dealing with the Cuban Missile Crisis on that exact day.

Jay Ward did not have a favorite character, his daughter said, because to him it would have been like selecting a favorite child (Incidentally, Ward had three kids). Of all the characters he created, Ward didn't have a favorite per se, but Tiffany Ward does recall his partiality to Dudley Do-Right, the slow but well-meaning Canadian Mountie.

When asked about "Rocky & Bullwinkle's" everlasting appeal, Ward said she thinks it struck such a chord and remains popular today because her father never wrote for children, he wrote for adults. Jay Ward wanted kids to enjoy the pictures while grown-ups laughed at the quick wit and inside jokes.

In one episode, Rocky and Bullwinkle are propelled to the moon when their oven explodes while the pair are following Bullwinkle's grandmother's recipe for mooseberry fudge cake. Fun for kids for obvious reasons, but adults certainly got a chuckle when the moose griped about still having to make payments on the oven.

Bullwinkle also mentions having graduated from MIT -- the Moose Institute of Toe-Dancing, that is. Furthermore, Mr. Peabody the dog, a Harvard graduate, lives in a Manhattan penthouse, practices yoga and has an adopted son, because as he puts it: "Every dog should have a boy." Peabody chooses an orphan because he "always roots for the underboy." It's these little jokes that set the show apart from typical children's programming of its time.

Today those jokes may not have us rolling on the floor laughing (or ROTFL, as the kids say), but they were the 1960s equivalent of Stewie's reaction to being rejected by "American Idol" on "Family Guy."

The 50th anniversary of "Rocky and Bullwinkle" also means that spy duo Boris & Natasha, Mr. Peabody & Sherman and the Fractured Fairytales are celebrating birthdays as well.

Fractured Fairytales offered a skewed take on traditional children's stories. The moral was the same, but modern, funny dialogue was tossed in with slapstick humor. Rapunzel, for example, visits a barber shop and laments about having "no future."

"Incredible writing is the reason the show resonates to this day," Ward said.

Today, cartoons are more popular than ever. There are cable networks devoted to animation, and it is commonplace for cartoons to be written specifically for adults. Fox's Sunday night animation domination block featuring "The Simpsons" and "Family Guy" comes to mind. "Rocky & Bullwinkle" was among the first animated series to hit prime time television.

Matt Groening even paid special homage to Jay Ward when he created "The Simpsons" by giving Bart, Homer and Grandpa Simpson the middle initial "J," as in Rocky's full name: Rocket J. Squirrel.

Tiffany Ward said she is thrilled there's such a wide array of animation available to viewers today, especially since in her father's era it was difficult to even get airtime for the genre. New projects are always coming the duo's way, and an animated Dreamworks feature film is in development.

David Archuleta Working With Daniel Bedingfield for New Album

Matt Squire, Victoria Horn, Daniel Bedingfield and Kani Grannis have all worked with David Archuleta for his forthcoming album.

David Archuleta is currently busy working on the follow-up to his eponymous debut album "David Archuleta". He wrote on his blog, "Last week I got to work with Matt Squire and Victoria Horn, and this week I've been working with Daniel Bedingfield and Kina Grannis."

In addition to giving the scoop on the album, David also shared what he did in the past few weeks during his studio break in Los Angeles. "I've gotten to spend time with my aunt! It's been a lot of fun getting to spend time with her and let her be a part of all of the things I've been doing down here," he stated. During the family time, he managed to take his aunt to one of Imogen Heap's concerts.

Recording sessions for the album actually have been started since David was touring with Demi Lovato last summer. The record is crafted back-to-back with his first Christmas effort "Christmas From My Heart" which was released in October. The not-yet-titled effort, meanwhile, will not hit the market until next year.

In the meantime, David is scheduled to embark on a tour to promote the Christmas set beginning November 24. For the gig which will be wrapped on December 20, he will perform hit singles from his previous album and new materials from the holiday effort.

'Supernatural' 5.10 Preview: Abandon All Hope

This would be the last episode airing this year before the show commences the rest of the fifth season in early 2010.

In the next "Supernatural", Sam, Dean and Castiel track down the Colt and head off to find Lucifer to send him back to Hell. It's a hunters' reunion when the crew joins forces with Bobby, Ellen and Jo for what could be their last night on Earth.

The episode is called "Abandon All Hope" and it will boast the guest starring appearances from Alona Tal, Samantha Ferris and Mark Sheppard. The first two reprise their roles as Jo and Ellen respectively while Mark makes his debut as Crowley. The episode will air on November 18 as the last episode of 2009 and the show is scheduled to return with originals on January 14.

Talking about the episode that will leave fans hanging, Misha Collins aka Castiel told Huffington Post that there will be a huge showdown between him and Lucifer. "Well, as with the Devil's trap, which is used to trap demons, there is, actually, as we've discovered on the show, Angel trapping technology, that I introduced to the show. It's a ring of holy fire," he explained.

"And Lucifer ends up using my own tricks against me and interrogates me, in a way. Basically, Lucifer tries to persuade me to join his ranks as a fellow Fallen. A fellow rebellious angel. It's quite a face off."

'Independence Day' Sequel Possibly Made With Will Smith Returning

Hinting at the possibility is film director Roland Emmerich, who says that the sequel will possibly be made into two parts.

It's been more than a decade since "Independence Day" was released, and its director Roland Emmerich has exclusively told MTV Movies Blog that a sequel will possibly be made. Greater than that, he has also hinted his intention to approach the film's leading actor Will Smith to make a comeback.

"What we want to do in the next - it's actually two movies - we want to do a bigger arc," enthused Roland. " 'Independence Day' was always like the king who leads his troops into battle against an evil force, and that stays like that."

The plan is just an idea and there has been no script written yet, but Roland says he has had in mind of what the sequel will be titled. " 'ID4-ever', Part I and II maybe?" he suggested. "The idea is just to continue the story and actually I don't know how many years ago this was - twelve, thirteen, fourteen years ago - and just continue where it ended."

And since plans for a sequel are still in very early stage, Roland shares no further detail about the not-yet-come-to-fruition films, telling MTV Movies Blog, "one day we will do it and that the story will stay firmly on the planet. It's always about earth and that earth gets invaded."

"Independence Day" is a science fiction film released in 1996 which tells about a hostile alien invasion of Earth. It focuses on a disparate group of individuals and families as they coincidentally converge in the Nevada desert and, along with the rest of the human population, participate in a last-chance retaliation on July 4. Roland Emmerich served as the director in addition to co-writing the script alongside producer Dean Devlin.

Ian Somerhalder Is So Cute to Kiss, Says Candice Accola

Besides, Candice says she has fun working with Ian in "The Vampire Diaries" as he is wonderful at his job.

Playing opposite Ian Somerhalder in The CW's "The Vampire Diaries", Candice Accola has no hesitation to sing him praise, telling Star Magazine in an interview she thinks the actor is "so cute to kiss". She goes on adding, "those days are fun on set. Ian is wonderful at his job."

When asked about Caroline Forbes, the character she portrays in the drama-horror-fantasy TV series, Candice says, "We're both boy crazy, and we're both girly girls!" She then describes, "She's a real go-getter, a young woman who knows what she wants and doesn't apologize for it. She's really sassy too - and very naughty, which is what I love about playing her."

As to why vampire becomes very popular these days, Candice shares her opinion to Star Magazine, explaining "Vampires are alluring and sexy and eternally young - it's all so extreme, fun and exciting. Especially now, with the economy in the dumps, it's refreshing not to focus on realistic things and lose yourself in mystical characters."
