Is
Prince William working in a London bank? (Go
To Top)
London:
Prince William, second in line to the British throne,
is rumoured to be undertaking work experience at a top London
bank. According to Femalefirst quoting The Times, the young
Royal, who has graduated from the St Andrew's University,
is working at US bank Merrill Lynch, where his friend Edward
Cutsem also works. While the bank has refused to comment
on the his appointment, others feel that a huge bank like
Merrill Lynch would probably not want to deal with the security
nightmare that is involved in taking on William for work
experience. William had previously undertaken a placement
in the city, and recently admitted that he was set for a
career in business.
Russell
Crowe may reprise his role in 'Gladiator-2' (Go

London:
Oscar-winning actor Russell Crowe has said that he is
in talks to reprise his role in 'Gladiator-2'. Crowe said
that he had originally dismissed the idea, but a new script
by rock star Nick Cave made him think again. "At first I
was very cynical about that notion (of a sequel), but I've
come around on it. Nick Cave actually wrote a draft for
me and director Ridley Scott at one point. I actually paid
for it, such is my belief for the idea. But unless everybody
is on line then it's kind of pointless going forward with
it," the Sun quoted him as saying to Australia's Empire
magazine.

Washington:
It seems that Hilary Swank's biological clock has kick
started hard enough to prepare the Oscar winning actress
to think about starting a family, as she has finally come
around to the idea of having babies. Though husband, Chad
Lowe, 37, is said to have been wanting children for a while,
it was Hilary, who hasn't been ready, but now, after eight
years of marriage, she seems to be very keen on it. The
couple have recently purchased a $3.5 million mansion in
South Bellingham, Washington, which according to the actress,
is the perfect place to raise kids. "She loves the fresh
air and the fact that it's really safe," the Star quoted
a close source as saying. "The house is amazing. It has
five bedrooms, a pool and a tennis court. The couple's new
pad is situated on the edge of a cliff with views overlooking
the ocean. There's certainly enough room for a nursery or
two," the source added.

Washington:
People in their 50s who have normal blood pressure could
live up to five years longer than those with hypertension
(high blood pressure), an international study has found.
The study, which has been published in the current issue
of Hypertension: Journal of the American Heart Association,
tracked 3128 people who celebrated their 50th birthday while
enrolled in the Framingham Heart Study, which looks at risk
factors for heart disease. It was the first study of a large
and continuously monitored group showing the effect of high
blood pressure on life expectancy overall and on life expectancy
in people with cardiovascular disease, heart attack and
stroke. The research showed that people with normal blood
pressure lived five years longer on average than people
with high blood pressure and on average developed cardiovascular
disease (or died) 7.2 years later.

London:
Hollywood actress Renee Zellwegner, who recently got
married to Kenny Chesney, has denied claims that her marriage
with the country singer is in trouble, after she was spotted
alone at the premire of her new film. According to Daily
Mail, while actor Russell Crowe arrived for the British
premiere of his upcoming film, 'Cinderella Man', with his
wife Danielle and baby son, Renee, who looked remarkably
slender in a backless black Carolina Herrera dress, walked
the red carpet alone, sparking speculation that she is going
through some marriage problems. "There is an air of sadness
around Renee," said a film source. "Although she has not
been talking about whether there are or are not any problems,
she has not mentioned her husband at all. It must have been
particularly bittersweet that Russell was clearly overjoyed
that his wife and son were with him while she was on her
own," he added. The beautiful star has, however, hit back
at claims saying that her hubby was away working. "I'm happily
married but I don't talk about it because I want to keep
my precious things precious." the Daily Mail quoted her
as saying when asked about the rumours her marriage was
in trouble "He is just finishing work," she added. However,
contrary to what Renee claims, the past report also suggests
that her romance is in trouble, as she is often found alone,
without her husband, even though her marriage is just a
few months old,and it's also alleged that the couple did
not have a proper honeymoon.

quoted as telling the Star. "She said that she used to have
a great bust but now it's disappeared," the source added.

implanted as she doesn't like anything artificial. "But
don't look for implants.She's not exactly the plastic surgery
kind," said the source.

London:
Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow has confessed that
she was literally shocked by her first nudist experience.
The Oscar-winning actress reportedly felt disgusted after
seeing some naked people for the first time, during her
childhood summer breaks. "This one summer we had tried all
these camps, and then my parents said; 'Oh, there's this
really nice family and they have a lake with a float in
it. Why don't you go and spend the afternoon there with
your brother?'" the Sun quoted the talented actress as saying.
"So we went there and it turned out they were all like Vermont
nudists, or something. My brother and I were shocked. They
were like; 'Come on! Take off your suits! It's freeing!'We
were clinging to our polyester bathing suits," she added.
