Kate Hudson dating Lance Armstrong?, Spielberg eyes up more Indiana Jones movies

1:40PM Monday May 19, 2008

Hollywood starlet Kate Hudson is dating Sheryl Crow's ex Lance Armstrong, according to several news reports.

Hudson - who recently split from on/off boyfriend Owen Wilson - is rumoured to have struck up a passionate relationship with seven-time Tour de France winner, Armstrong, 36, over the last two weeks.

This is the second time that Armstrong has supposedly dated one of Wilson's exes. He famously hooked up with singer Sheryl Crow after her three-year relationship with Wilson ended.

A source tells Britain's Mail on Sunday, "Kate and Lance have been dating for a couple of weeks. She thought it was funny when people were writing recently that she was engaged to Owen because the reality was that they had split again and she was secretly seeing Lance.

"She and Lance are both physical, passionate people - she's never been happier."

While people.com reports that the pair has indeed been spending a lot of together.

The loved-up pair was apparently spotted in Austin, Texas over the weekend, dining out and appeared to be infatuated with each other.

Meanwhile, Wilson, who allegedly tried to commit suicide when he and Hudson first broke up last year, is said to be heartbroken over the supposed split.

A Wilson pal says, "It was a pretty bad breakup.

"Owen said it was a tough one. He definitely doesn't want to dwell on it. He wants to put it behind him."

No comment from either of the stars' reps yet.

Are they/aren't they?

I'm not 100 per cent convinced that Hudson and Wilson actually re-kindled their relationship as news reports have claimed.

And as for a rumoured romance with Armstrong? Only time will tell...

What do you think?

She sucks

Poor Peaches Geldof.

Saint Bob Geldof's 19-year-old daughter has always maintained that she's not a drug user, but a former 'mate' begs to differ.

The News of the World reports that Peaches has been nicknamed 'Dyson' - due to her alleged excessive use of cocaine.

A former friend/snitch has spoken to the tabloid, and says that Peaches was nicknamed after the famous vacuum cleaner as she often "hoovered up" the white stuff.

Rock drummer Neal Eldridge, who apparently witnessed many of Peaches' drug binges, says, "Peaches is the biggest hypocrite I know. She would go out on a drink and drug bender with us, then days later publicly claim to have a squeaky-clean, drug-free image. Every time the cocaine came out, she was there first to hoover it up."

Loving the Dyson nickname, guys. Not such a great advert for the legendary vacuum cleaner, though...what with being associated with a rumoured skanky chemical sister.

Bringing crazy back

She's back.

Vengeful housewife and soon-to-be divorcee Tricia Walsh-Smith has uploaded another rant on to YouTube.

She's as mad as a bag of snakes.

 

She's brilliant. For all the wrong reasons.

The big drop

I think someone's been playing silly beggars with the press, Angelina Jolie.

Jolie claims her twins are due on August 19, but rumours are now swirling that she could drop in as little as two weeks.

I concur. Jolie's humongous at the mo and her bump looks as though it's ready to explode. You know how a boil looks when it needs to be lanced? Yes, revolting, I know. Sorry.

Ugly Lohan

Here's a sneak peek at Lindsay Lohan's cameo on Ugly Betty.

 

Hardly a stretch for Li Lo - she basically plays herself and comes across as a proper madam.

Smell that? It's called desperation...which is spelt L.I.N.D.S.A.Y L.O.H.A.N, by the way.

Li Lo's 22nd birthday is coming up, and seeing as she was too busy rehabbing last year to commemorate her big day, she's pulling out all the stops to party this year like its 1999.

How's this for desperation...

Li Lo - or her minions more like - have launched a website touting for sponsorship of her upcoming birthday.

Is this a surefire sign that the Mean Girls actress is a bit strapped for cash? I wonder if she'll turn her nose at any alcohol sponsors...

Please don't

Sylvester Stallone's big-boobie ex Brigitte Nielsen has threatened to bare all to commemorate the 20th anniversary of her Playboy cover.

But rather than merely rely on Photoshop to airbrush away her facial crevasses and what-not, she says she's prepared to go under the knife to look her best for the photo spread.

A face and boob lift are reportedly on the cards.

She says, "I wanna look up and say, 'Oh, I like myself. I don't like my lines... I'm gonna do the boobs; I'm gonna lift them and be a bit more discreet and then I will do Playboy. Twenty years ago, I did the cover of Playboy... I wanna do Playboy December this year. I'm gonna be 45."

45? And the rest!

Well that's one issue of Playboy I certainly won't be buying.

Old Kids On The Block

Tattle tales

Can you imagine what dirt digger the National Enquirer would look like if it was ever bound and published as a book?

Imagine no longer.

Introducing Hollywood Babylon: It's Back.

No, it's not the Enquirer, but it might as well be.

Penned by authors Danforth Prince and Darwin Porter, the scandalous book reportedly contains full-frontal pics of several luminaries, including Sean Connery, Ewan McGregor, Johnny Depp and Richard Gere.

But nudity aside, the real gold is the tremendous amount of filthy gossip it has between its covers.

Some of the books most outlandish claims include:

* Marilyn Monroe had an affair with Ronald Reagan and Joan Crawford - but Crawford had bad-breath, so she dumped her.

* James Dean showed a disconcerting interest in a 12-year-old boy in the early 1950s.

* Elvis Presley had a gay old time with Nick Adams, who played Johnny Yuma in the hit TV series The Rebel.

* Lucille Ball launched herself into show business as a hooker, and her husband Desi Arnaz had a fling with Cesar Romero.

* Cary Grant had an incestuous relationship with his stepson, Lance Reventlow.

* Strange things happened to Judy Garland's body (this in the chapter on "Fan Worship and Necrophilia" Eugh!

* Police believed Bette Davis killed her second husband, Arthur Farnsworth, by hitting him on the head and causing a hemorrhage that lead to his death two weeks later. But a grand jury - six men who confessed to being ardent fans - found her innocent."

Thanks to nydailynews.com for the scandal run-down.

More Indiana Jones?

Could there be a fifth Indiana Jones caper in the pipeline? Depends who you choose to believe...

The franchise's big honcho, Spielberg, says a big "yes", and so does executive producer George Lucas. But as for Fedora fan Harrison Ford? Not so sure.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has just premiered at the Cannes film festival, and reportedly "earned a respectful - though far from glowing - reception".

But despite the lukewarm reception and mixed reviews from movie critics, Spielberg says he's open to the idea of producing another Jones sequel.

Speaking at a press conference in Cannes, Spielberg said he would consider making Indiana Jones 5, but "Only if you want more.

"That's why we made this Indiana Jones. We'll certainly have our ear to the ground to hear what happens."

"That'll decide were we go from here," Spielberg added.

Lucas also says the filmmakers have left the door wide open for another sequel.

He says, "I haven't even told Steven or Harrison (Ford) this. But I have an idea to make Shia (LeBeouf) the lead character next time and have Harrison come back like Sean Connery did in the last movie. I can see it working out."

Meanwhile, Ford insists the fourth film will be the last.

Speaking at Cannes, he says another sequel is not on his radar: "It took 20 years to get this one together. Nobody's really anticipating that sort of thing."

And the first flurry of reviews is in.

Pipe it down

Whatever brand of crazy Oprah's audience members are flogging, they can go flog it someplace else - I'm all stocked up here.

Winfrey announced on her show last week that she was planning her first-ever
Oprah's Favorite Things...for Summer.

I have no idea what that entails, but judging by this reaction (below), it undoubtedly involves dishing out free things.

FFS, these people need help.

Quote of the day

"When the tabloids say something bad, it makes us stronger as a family because we stick together. So keep it coming, guys." - Aliana Lohan. Be careful what you wish for, love.
