American actress Christina Ricci has slammed actress Lindsay Lohan for her role as a stripper in her upcoming movie, insisting that the troubled starlet has set a bad example for young and impressionable girls.

The 28-year-old admits that actresses like Lohan have created a culture of women who find flattery in misogyny.

“It used to be something that we (women) were sort of ashamed of. You didn’t want to admit to people that you were a stripper, The Sun quoted her as saying.

“But now, the hottest thing to say is ‘I can work a pole!’ Who gives a f***? But it’s a huge weird thing.

“I mean, you see actresses, and their passion project is to play a stripper. It’s just stupid, she added.

Spanish actress Penelope Cruz is setting pulses racing with her steamy new film, Elegy.

She appears alongside Sir Ben Kingsley, who plays a charismatic professor who loses his composure when he falls in love with a student half his age.

The star is no stranger to nudity she has gone topless in more than eight films, including the Italian release Don't Move.

"Penelope has done screen nudity before and isn't shy about showing off her boobs and bum," The Sun quoted a film insider as saying.

"Movie fans are in for a real treat," the insider added.

Elegy is based on Pulitzer Prize-winner Philip Roths short novel The Dying Animal. The movie is about a passionate relationship between a celebrated college professor (Ben Kingsley) and a young woman (Penelope Cruz) whose beauty destabilizes him.

She admits her hairdresser mother, Encarna, and merchant father, Eduardo, aren't thrilled at her nude scenes.

She has said previously, "Going topless is not my favourite thing. It's a little tough for my parents."

The film, which also stars Debbie Harry, Dennis Hopper and Patricia Clarkson, is expected to be be released is the UK next month.

American socialite Paris Hilton decided to share her view regarding Jessica Simpson's boob size with the world. According to Hilton, small boobs are far better than big sized ones, citing the Dukes Of Hazzard star's assets as being "too big".

"I like how mine are, I don't like big boobs," the Sun quoted her as saying.

"I think they're too ... big," she said.

In order to prove her point, Paris arrived at The Sanderson Hotel in London in a see-through top. Earlier Paris Hilton has groveled to her former best friend Kim Kardashian after likening her ass to cottage cheese.

The dimwitted socialite told a Las Vegas radio show, “I would not want [Kim’s butt] — it’s gross! It reminds me of cottage cheese inside a big trash bag.”

However, when the insults were posted all over the web, sorry Paris realised she overstepped the mark.

Speaking to In Touch, the Good Charlotte groupie said, “I was just joking around and I made a stupid joke. I felt really bad afterward, so I contacted Kim and apologized. It was a silly thing to say. Kim’s hot!”

Kim graciously accepted the apology, saying: “Paris and I have been friends since we were kids and I’m glad she made the effort to say she's sorry."

English glamour model Katie Andre aka Jordan spoke in defence of the sexually explicit behaviour featured on her reality TV show, 'Jordan and Peter: The next chapter'.

Jordan and her husband, singer Peter Andre have admitted that they found the degrading content of their show "disgusting" after the scenes sparked controversy among audiences.

Their vulgar behaviour was filmed in front of their children, which has reportedly caused child experts to question the couple's parenting skills. "I know it's disgusting, but we get carried way. It's so easy to forget cameras are there," Daily Telegraph quoted her as saying. "It is disgusting - but Pete always starts it," she added.

The couple has come under flack for having inappropriate discussions in front of their three children, 6-year-old Harvey, 2-year-old Junior, and nine months old Princess.

"Yeah I could easily have sh***ed you because you were so drunk," Peter was heard telling Jordan. "Daddy got a bit excited when they were making him," he later told Junior.

Child psychologists have deemed the behaviour "inappropriate" claiming it could have damaging effects on the children. It is the second time this year that Jordan"s parental capabilities have been called into question. For Jordan it is a very tough time indeed, juggling her career with motherhood and having to combine a book promotion with Harvey's medical results.

"I'm seeing doctors about Harvey's diagnosis, but I've got my book launch this afternoon in Harrods so I'm going to have my hair and make-up done and dress as a mermaid while they tell me," she said. "It's crazy but it's the only way to fit in everything," she added. Peter criticised Jordan for taking her career too far, but admits the reality show is necessary for their image. "It keeps our profile up, and I love it," he said.

If you've been keeping tabs on Jessica Alba, one thing seems clear: she isn't happy. She never seems to be in a good mood, and without making any statements that might lead to getting my ass sued, I think it might have something to do with her being pregnant. But she should look on the bright side, her breasts are huge now. And in that dress, from certain angles, under the right light, you can hardly even tell she's pregnant. And did I mention the boobs?

Anyway, if Jessica Alba's worried about not getting any more hot superhero roles, all she has to do is remember that she's a superhero in real life: Super Busty.

Did you ever think that Disney-sweetheart, Vanessa Hudgens, would ever have a baby? Well imagine it! During what was going to be a routine interview, we learned a little more than we bargained for!

We sat her down, while she was wearing a barely visible Beyonce-style dress, and asked her a few questions. One of them was, "What do you think would happen if you and your so called 'boyfriend' Zac efron, were to have sex?" She then said, "Umm, I don't know, but I think it would be quite an adventure, but now since I've taken the pictures and with the whole scandal, Zac has become very amorous."

Then the whole thing came out when she said, "And yes, I am expecting one."

Our reporter, Jennifer Wells, was in shock.

One of Hudgens' close friends then said, "Well, yeah, she is pregnant. I saw when they were conceiving the baby."

According to the friend, she is at least 5 weeks pregnant now, and the soon-to-be parents, Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens, are hoping for a little boy.

Hudgens also told us, "We are even picking out colors for the nursery, and after the baby is born, we plan to move in together." But for now, the young couple will try to stay secluded from all the paps.

The baby will be expected to be born, in middle December, around Hudgens' birthday.

All we can say is "Good Luck Vanessa!"

A 15-minute film of Marilyn Monroe engaging in oral sex with an unidentified man will be kept from public view by a New York businessman who has bought it for $1.5 million, the broker of the deal said on Monday.

Memorabilia collector Keya Morgan said he recently arranged the sale of the silent, black-and-white film from the son of a dead FBI informant who possessed it to a wealthy Manhattan businessman who wants to protect Monroe's privacy.

"The gentleman who bought it said out respect for Marilyn he's not going to make a joke of it and put it on the Internet and try to exploit her," said memorabilia collector Keya Morgan.

"That's not his intention and I would never get my name involved if that were to happen."

Monroe is clothed and the man's head remains out of the frame for the entire 15 minutes of the film, said Morgan, who watched it.

Monroe was rumored to have had an affair with U.S. President John F. Kennedy, and Morgan said then FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, a Kennedy rival, went to great lengths to try to prove it was Kennedy in the film.

One of Monroe's ex-husbands, the late baseball great Joe DiMaggio, once tried to buy it from the collector for $25,000 but "he would not part with it," according to FBI files on Monroe that are available on the FBI Web site.

Morgan is a well-known collector who owns memorabilia from the estates of Monroe and DiMaggio and said he was friends with Monroe's other two husbands, Jim Dougherty and Arthur Miller.

He said he learned of the existence of the film while working on a documentary about Monroe, who died in August 1962 at age 36. A former FBI agent told him about it, and Morgan said he confirmed it by tracking down the son of the FBI informant, who had provided a copy to the FBI.

"I thought the FBI agent was embellishing it for my documentary. I never believed it once until I pulled up the FBI document (referring to the film)," Morgan said.

The late informant's son had the original while the copy remains classified in the FBI files, said Morgan, whose deal was first reported by the New York Post on Monday.

"The FBI agent that I interviewed said J. Edgar Hoover was completely obsessed. A team of nine individuals were analyzing the tape inside a lab. J. Edgar Hoover brought in a few prostitutes who allegedly had been with President Kennedy and they tried to ... see if that was really President Kennedy."

An FBI spokesmen declined to comment except to point out the Monroe files available online, which refer to the film but make no mention of Hoover's purported interest.

Wearing a shiny blue evening gown, Carmen Electra was all smiles as she arrived at her 36th birthday party with boyfriend, Korn guitarist Rob Patterson, on Saturday night.

Upon arrival, the former Baywatch star, who turns 36-years-young on April 20th, was asked what she hoped for in the year ahead, replying: “lots of work.”

While she's known as a raunchy pop star, Madonna claims that she was actually a "geek" and "very straight" at the beginning of her career. The soon to be 50 superstar, claims that she was a simpleton in her 20s—at the time when she hit the pop scene clad in basques and black lace and married hell raising actor Sean Penn.

"I really was not getting up to much. I don't think I was as naughty as I could have been. I was quite straight. I was a geek when I was that age. I did not really do that much that was interesting," the Daily Express quoted her, as saying.

Talking about her early hit 'Like A Virgin', she said: "There is a kind of simplicity about it. There is an innocence about it. When I look at the video I also see a girl who is innocent and wide-eyed and really excited about life and the beginning of her career."

However, when it comes to her raunchy book 'Sex', which was released when she was at the height of her fame in 1992 and in which she posed in bare essentials, Madonna claims that she is not just about shedding clothes.

"I hope that's not the only thing that I'm identified with - taking off my clothes. I have done other things. There's a lot more to being Madonna than taking off your clothes," she said.

Hollywood actress Lindsay Lohan has agreed to go totally nude for a new movie - just to prove that she can be a mature actress.

The actress isnt getting paid a hefty amount for the nymphomaniac waitress role either.

The actress is so keen on making her point that when producers wanted her to only go topless during the red-hot sex scenes, she happily offered to do a full frontal.

And whats more, Lohan, who has usually been commanding seven-figure movie cheques, has agreed to strip off for a least amount.

She is fully aware of the potential of her body. Lindsay wants to build up an image as a mature, responsible actress, a Hollywood pal added.

Here’s Cameron Diaz in the latest British GQ for no good reason other than giving us a look at her incredible legs (and talking about how much she likes boys). I’ve done quite a few posts on Cameron’s legs (see here, and here), but it always seem like they’re never enough. Go figure. So gaze upon these stems of perfection, and marvel at the fact that Cameron is so much hotter now that she’s not with Doorknob Timberlake.

American pop singer Madonna has revealed that she is trying to be more ladylike – because she feels that she is too "masculine".

Madge claimed that she has always been comfortable with her masculine side, but would now like to concentrate on being more feminine.

"I think I've been honing and finessing my feminine side,” Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

She further stated that she likes the idea of being more flexible and more vulnerable.

"I've always been very comfortable with my masculine side - the confidence, the ballsiness. I've learnt to be more pliant, more vulnerable - and to be comfortable with that," she added.
