Brad Pitt

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie do not fight. Brad in his interview with “Rolling Stone” revealed that “I don’t want to waste time being angry at someone I love”. When asked about his and Jolie’s decision to sell their recent family photos to the People magazine, Brad brooded and said that, “It sounded to me like the story made Angie out to be manipulative in some way,” he was talking about the story carried out by New York Times on their recent expansion of family.

Brad explained why the story sounded so different from reality, “…(the writer is) totally missing the point. She is savvy. It doesn’t sound like this guy understands that when it came to the birth of our children, a huge bounty was placed on their heads. And people were going to go to incredible lengths to get it in our mind, People magazine does more things about the positive spirit of people, so that’s how we came to our decision.”

Brad also talked about “Benjamin Button”. “…I find Benjamin is about those universal things we all share — that 95 percent that makes us all the same, wherever we are in the world. Our loves, our hopes, but also the loss that we all walk around with and hide very well, and the ultimate notion that we’re all expendable…” Brad defended Angelina in the interview like any doting husband would do. Pitt in spite of the fact that he has a big family has always been a man of huge interest for the gossip mongers. He in spite of starring in talent oriented films, has remained a tabloid material. His interviews turn out to be gossip thing with one liners that create fire.

Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise has admitted that he had made mistakes in the past. In a recent interview the “Top Gun” star confronted with reality. At the age of 46, married to Katie Holmes and with a daughter he adores, he feels his life is back in control. Tom confessed : “There are things that I could have done better,” “I could have handled things better…” He was talking in context to his streak of madness a couple of years back when he was axed from Paramount Studios’ unique 14-year deal.

The public was appalled at his erratic swings with his career and personal life. An actor like Cruise had to take a pay cut for Mission: Impossible 3. Now Cruise wants to extend his family and wants to bring the family closer like never before. Cruise in his suite at the Beverly Hills Hotel was giving the interview.  The star, based in New York where Katie’s appearing on Broadway, said: “We’ll have more children, I’m saying this, but Kate’s not here!…” Tom was looking lean and trim. He wore dark slacks and an olive green shirt designed by his wife. Tom with his new film “Valkryie” is facing a tough test. He seems both busy and content but faces problems. He is stressed because if the £50million thriller succeeds it will boost his status and credibility as a studio chief. His failure could well cast doom.

In Valkryie he dons an eye-patch and Nazi uniform to portray the real-life German hero Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg who, disgusted with Hitler’s leadership, joins forces with Germans determined to overthrow the Nazis.

The studio is spending £40million for marketing the film, which features British actors, including Tom Wilkinson, Bill Nighy, Kenneth Branagh, Eddie Izzard and Terence Stamp.

Britney has come out of hellish life. She has taken awards and stunned her bedazzled fans with her rise. She also said how her entire life was dedicated to freedom. She always wanted to be free and her present status is making things worse for her “freedom” to live her life on her terms. She said : “If you do something wrong in your work, you can move on, but I’m having to pay for a long time…I never wanted to become one of those prisoner people. I always wanted to feel free.”

The stunning 26 year old pop beauty feels that people only needed to payback when they did something wrong in their work but she felt that she was suffering for a long time and her paying back seems like an “endless” thing.
Britney who is to perform on X Factor next weekend, believes that she was being payed back for her public meltdown when she shaved her head and lost custody of her two sons. The paying was still going on which reflects in her “controlled” life, Britney feels.

She added in the end : “I think I’ve learnt my lesson now and enough is enough.”

The Beatles

After 41 years an unreleased Beatles track could be made public. All thanks to former Beatles, Paul McCartney. The track was so far regarded as one that was “mythical” by The Beatles fans. But the mythical track awaits the light of release.

Paul McCartney has come out with one of the Beatles’ most revered track (according to Paul). He told BBC Radio that “Carnival of Light” was The Beatles at their most free, “going off piste.”

Paul said that would be great for the track to be made public. He believes that the track was the most ” avant-garde stuff. ” The song was reportedly recorded at London’s Abbey Road studios four decades back.

Paul has confirmed that the master track is with him. The “mythical” track (as regarded by several Beatles fans) which was assumed to be a piece of musical that was not to be found has finally come out. The 14-minute track was made for an electronic music festival. This was the only occasion where the music was made public.

The sound as suggested by McCartney is more like an echo of notes. Beatles recorded the track keeping in mind all forms of stuff. There was a little bit of everything in it starting from bang,boom,shout,hovering over piano chords and all in one.

Paul Mccartney

The track in order to be made public requires a nod from Ringo Starr, and an agreement from the estates of John Lennon and George Harrison. “Carnival of Light” was a track that according to BBC was to be included on The Beatles’ Anthology compilations in the mid-1990s but the band members had then vetoed against it.

Paul McCartney ended his interview with Radio 4’s Front Row culture show in an interview to be broadcast on Thursday by saying : “The time has come for it to get its moment.”

Beyonce

Beyonce Knowles talked about her marriage and the things that she could have done if she was not married. Beyonce Knowles known for her tight lipped nature when asked about her marriage has revealed her thoughts about tying the knot. The 27 year old pop star who is married to music mogul Jay-Z said “I feel like you have to get to know yourself, know what you want, spend some time by yourself, and be proud of who you are before you can share that with someone else” about her early marriage.

She said how difficult it was for her “Before the age of 25, I would never get married,” to make the decision when all her life she wanted to do was to wait for the right moment and the right time to settle down with the right person.

We can get an insight into her thoughts about marriage : “I really don’t believe that you will love the same thing when you’re 20 as you do at 30.”

Asked whether she could learn anything about life, from her musical husband, she said , “I guess probably that we’re all human.” “I don’t care if you’re picture-perfect on every magazine cover, and you’re the most handsome, successful, coolest guy,” says Beyoncé. “You still get sad, and you still get your feelings hurt, and you still get confused and vulnerable and nervous and scared. You have to find a person you can make it through the tough times with.”

Beyonce also talked about her star image and her worries about her performances. She said that she found it proper to study her past performances so that she always found ways to improve. “I have my YouTube days, when I watch every performance,” she says. “I listen to my music, and I watch my videos to figure out what I need to do, what I need to fix, and how to become a better singer,” Beyonce said.
Beyonce’s new album comes up on Monday. “I Am … Shasha Fierce” is her new album. She also talked about her upcoming album in her interview. She also said that she always wanted to have a a strong sense of self before making a lifelong commitment to anyone.

Jennifer Aniston John Mayer

Jennifer Aniston finally breaks the ice. She has an open secret. Nowadays whenever she is asked about her personal life or anything in line with her relation with Mayer, she bursts out saying : “People need to mind their own business.”

Aniston,39, had a traumatic period post break up with Mayer. But the recent gossip mill surrounding her and Mayer suggests that the actress is going steady with her boyfriend John Mayer. Rumours were abound that she was pregnant with Mayer’s child.

Her interview with Vogue (to be featured in December) she has even said, “I Feel Seriously Protective” of Mayer.

Aniston added : “It’s funny when you hit a place in a relationship and you both realize [that] we maybe need to do something else, but you still really, really love each other. It’s painful. There was no malicious intent. I deeply, deeply care about him; we talk, we adore one another. And that’s where it is.” Aniston says that she is overly practical in love in the present times.

Aniston says she’s been “unbelievably lucky in love” but her practicality about the subject reflects in her statements : “Whoever said everything has to be forever,” “That’s setting your hopes too high. It’s too much pressure. And I think if you put that pressure on yourself … that’s unattainable.”

Jennifer Aniston

Aniston has been a real cool cat and shown grace in handling her troubled mind.She feels Angelina’s recent comments on her relationship with Brad was really “uncool” and unlike a star. Aniston is really disturbed after Angelina made an infuriating comment recently about her relationship starting off in the sets of Mr and Mrs Smith.

Aniston was talking to Vogue magazine for their December issue. Three years have passed since Aniston-Brad Pitt split but this time Jennifer cannot stop herself from fuming. Aniston was all along respectful and mum about her split and Brad’s hook up with Angelina for all these years. “There was stuff printed there that was definitely from a time when I was unaware that it was happening,” Aniston said which reflects her anger and confusion.

Aniston and Pitt finalized their divorce in August 2005 after announcing their separation in January that year.
“I have nothing but admiration for him and … I’m proud of him!,” Aniston said, adding the divorce “never was that bad.”

Though Aniston sounded normal and relaxed about the entire affair but she could not really conceal her utter disappointemnt when Aniston, 39, told Vogue that Jolie should not have given a detailed account of how her relationship with Pitt developed on the set of the 2005 movie “Mr. & Mrs. Smith,” when Aniston and Pitt were still together. Those details were revealed in Jolie’s 2007 interview with Vogue.
She seemed flustered more because of Jolie’s recent comments not because she has bitter images of her split with Brad.

Gary Barlow

Garry Barlow has revealed how he played “terrible” tricks on his former bandmate Robbie Williams. Both Garry and Robbie used to get down at each other. Their rivalry became so intense that they started playing dirty tactics at each other before Robbie parted ways with “Take That”.

Garry had recently met Robbie and the latter had belted out his numbers to his former mate. Garry said tha the had no hard feelings for Robbie anymore. Robbie and Garry were bitter foes after the band broke up. But Garry Barlow insisted : “I don’t feel anything about Robbie now. I feel really good about what’s happening with us, I feel good about it all - but not at Robbie’s expense. Not at all,” about his present feelings for his former band mate. It sure looks like Garry had a great time catching up with Robbie during his recent trip to Los Angeles.

Garry felt bad about his stupid jokes on Robbie when he said : “…I took Robbie’s album back to a music shop once and…’ Stupid, stupid things! Things you wouldn’t dream of doing as a 37-year-old bloke. Quite seriously I’d do it, as well. It wouldn’t be as a joke.”

Take That reunited in 2005 but without Robbie Williams. This had been a great cause of regret for Garry’s bandmate Mark Owen who felt that Robbie’s absence was hard on the bnad.

Garry also revealed in his recent interview with Britain’s Observer Music Monthly magazine that he had longed for Robbie’s return to Take That. He said he would have loved Robbie’s presence and the making of music together.

“…He should be here, having a laugh…Originally I wanted him to come back so that we could make something right, something that had been wrong. Back in the past. But I think we’ve done that now. We saw him in Los Angeles. Really, all Take That is is a therapy session. One long therapy session.” A reunion for Take That in the proper sense might just be round the corner. Till then time will save the day and Take That music.
