for 12 to 14 hours a day and hasn't moved out of her Bel
Air home for a month. "It's as if she has thrown in the
towel and admitted she has nothing left to live for. It's
like she's given up. She's lost the will to live," femalefirst
quoted an insider as saying. A pal revealed that Taylor
didn't want to live and dreamt of being with her ex-love
- the late Richard Burton. "Elizabeth asked me what I thought
heaven was going to be like. She couldn't wait to go there
She told me with tears in her eyes, 'I won't hurt anymore
I'll be with Richard [Burton]' That's all she really cares
about," he was quoted as saying.

London:
It seems singer Mariah Carey's singlehood and lonliness
have taken their toll on her, as she is said be "shopping
for men" during her trip to the British capital. "I'm going
to find me a man on this trip," Femalefirst quoted the diva,
who wants to find herself a man, as telling her pals. During
a recent trip to London, the 35-year-old pop star told her
close friends that she wants to meet and fall in love with
a British man, because she has heard they are complete gentlemen.
"She's heard that British men are complete gentlemen and
she's ready for some of that," the report quoted an insider
as saying on America's MSNBC internet site. "I must say
she was looking quite lovely on the trip so I think she
will be successful," the insider added.

London:
Online auction site eBay is set to withdraw six love
letters written by Prince Charles to a mystery Canadian
girlfriend. The letters, five of which were written in 1976,
and the sixth in 1980 - a year before Charles married Princess
Diana, were up for grabs at 40,000 pounds. "They are very
private. We don't want to upset the Prince so it is likely
they will be withdrawn," The Sun quoted a source at the
online auctioneer as saying. Los Angeles-based royal collector,
Alicia Carroll, who was given the notes, said: "The letters
are significant because they are written at a time Charles
claims his only true love was Camilla." The letters talk
about Charles not being able to sneak women into his hotel
room on tours for fear of the Press, and how he longs to
spend more time with the Canadian woman.

London:
Hey, filmmakers here is another brilliant story idea
for you - A woman in Britain has given birth to her daughter's
child. Fifty-three-year old Annie Casserley agreed to be
a surrogate mother, after doctors warned that her daughter
Emma Hattersley, who is one of three people in the world
with Histiocytosis X - a condition that weakens the heart
and lungs, could die if she had the baby herself. Emmy didn't
want a stranger to carry the baby and asked her mother to
give birth to her child. Eggs from Emmy were fertilised
by her husband Andrew's sperm and placed in Annie's womb,
who gave birth to the Caesarean baby girl. "This baby's
a miracle and it's down to my mum. Surrogacy was suggested
to me but I didn't want a stranger to carry the baby - I
wanted someone I trusted and was close to. There is a strong
bond between me and my mother," the Sun quoted Emma as saying.
Casserley said that she chose to have a general anaesthetic
because "I wanted to see my grandchild in my daughter's
arms just like any other grandmother." The baby has been
named Annie Trinity, as three people brought her to life.
"Annie's birth was the best day of my life, I had to phone
and tell everyone and I just kept breaking down in tears,"
the report quoted over-excited father Andrew as saying.
Has
Sienna Miller suffered a miscarriage? (Go

New
York: The roller coaster ride in Sienna Miller's troubled
life seems to be a never ending one. First the euphoria
and warm flush of love with Hollywood heartthrob Jude Law,
when life seemed a bed of roses, followed by the sickening
stab of his infidelity, when her whole world came crashing
down in an instant. And just as it seemed to be getting
back on track, with reports of their reconciliation after
she laid out her "six commandments" for his reform, comes
the latest twist in the tale, with rumors that she may have
miscarried his baby due to the trauma she underwent following
his betrayal. According to witnesses, the "Alfie" actress
looked glum at her sister Savannah's nuptials last weekend
in England, which incidentally Jude did not attend, which
may have been due to the fact that she had suffered a miscarriage
some time ago. "She's only told her family and closest friends,"
The New York Daily News quoted a source as saying. "Naturally,
everyone feels terrible for her," he added. Sienna's rep
however, called talk of a miscarriage as "complete and utter
balderdash!"

London:
Charlie's Angels star Cameron Diaz is apparently planning
to marry her boyfriend, pop singer Justin Timberlake, in
a secret Christmas ceremony. The couple has already invited
150 guests for a party in Hawaii, to ostensibly 'celebrate
their romance', but, according to some close friends, this
bash will actually celebrate their wedding. "They're not
saying if there's going to be a marriage but said it will
a time of new beginnings," Femalefirst quoted a source as
telling the Daily Star newspaper. And though many fans are
said to be disturbed at the couple's age difference, it
does not appear to bother the singer, who is hell- bent
on marrying the sexy actress, almost eight years his senior,
in spite of all odds. Timberlake, however, wants the nuptials
to be a low-key affair.

London:
Paris Hilton has admitted that there is nothing wrong
for people to film their own sex tapes, as it is something
which everyone does. When asked whether the re-enactment
of the real-life scene in the movie House of the Wax peeved
her not, she reportedly confessed that she did not mind
because it's very common now-a-days. To a question during
an interview by FHM magazine "Were you peeved when you read
your House Of Wax script and saw that - in a suspicious
art-imitating-real-life moment - your character is filmed
having sex," the Sun quoted the sexy actress as saying that
as it was in the script originally, she had no problems
with the scene. "No, that was in the script before I was
on it. I don't really mind, it's not abnormal for people
to film their trips.Everyone does it," the paper quoted
her as saying.

that they smoke and talk about sex together. Sexy Keira,
who is set to hit screens shortly in new action movie Domino,

her mother, and openly talks to her even on taboo topics
like sex. "She's this chilled out hippy mother. I haven't
seen Meet The Fockers, but I have a feeling she's like the
Barbara Streisand character. My house was always the one
where my brother and his mates would be drinking when they
shouldn't be," the Sun quoted her as telLing America's Esquire
magazine. "Mum and I would always talk about sex," she added.
The Pride and Prejudice star, who also did a sexy boob-revealing
shoot for the magazine, further added by saying that their's
is not a typical mother-daughter relationship, as they even
light a cigarette together. "She'd come up to my room and
have me roll her cigarettes and then tell me I had to have
one with her. Not the typical mother- daughter thing. But
we're extremely close," she added.

New
York: Inflation, it seems hits things other than just
the economy, with the latest commodity to come under its
influence, being the premium the rich and famous put on
their persona. First came the mega-million dollar squabble
between the Douglas family and Hello magazine over the premium
for privacy, especially if Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas
wanted their marriage to be barred from public view, and
now Demi Moore and her 'toy-boy' lover Ashton Kucher, who
have reportedly raked in mega-bucks for releasing exclusive
pictures of their wedding to a British magazine. According
to The New York Daily News, OK! Magazine has reportedly
dished out, approximately 3 million dollars to the couple
for intimate photographs of the Kabbalah-style ceremony,
which took place under a veil of secrecy last Saturday at
a home in Beverly Hills, and an exclusive interview with
the newlyweds. However, according to the paper, the word
is that the couple plan to donate the sum to Habitat for
Humanity, presumably to benefit victims of Hurricanes Katrina
and Rita. No one is however willing to either confirm, or
deny the news. While Demi and Ashton's reps declined to
comment, the magazine is also playing the issue close to
its chest and not revealing more than is necessary. "All
deals are private and confidential. We protect our exclusives
by not revealing too much information until our fabulous
interviews and photos appear," the report quoted OK!'s editor
in chief, Sarah Ivens, as saying in a statement.
