Britney calls an exorcist

Britney Spears is calling in an exorcist to help beat her inner demons.

Reminiscent of the movie The Exorcist, Britney’s family hopes a spiritual cleansing will fix her problems.

According to a source: “Lynne [Britney’s mom] spoke to a priest who has agreed to help.”

“But she doesn’t expect Britney to projectile vomit - or her head to swivel round!”

Amy Winehouse Denied US Visa

Amy Winehouse’s request for a U.S. visa was denied by the U.S. Embassy. She had made an application so she could perform at the Grammys on Sunday.

“Amy has been progressing well since entering a rehabilitation clinic two weeks ago and although disappointed with the decision has accepted the ruling and will be concentrating on her recovery,” her publicist said.

However, she will still be performing by satellite.

I wonder if she’ll sing “Rehab”. It would be an appropriate (if not ironic) song choice.

Winehouse has been nominated for six awards.

Jessica Alba will only speak Spanish to her baby

Jessica Alba says she plans to speak to her baby in Spanish exclusively.

The problem? Jessica doesn’t know Spanish.

“I wish to God that my dad spoke Spanish to my brother and me, but he didn’t grow up with it.”

“Hopefully I can pick it up because I want my kids to speak Spanish. I don’t even want them to speak English for maybe the first two to three years, until pre-school.”

“We’re in the United States so they’re going to learn it anyway.”

Deepika supports Yuvi

Deepika Padukone has flown to Australia to cheer 'close friend' Yuvraj Singh [Images] in the ongoing four-match India-Australia Test series.

The Om Shanti Om actress will also celebrate her 22nd birthday on January 5 with the cricketer.

Deepika is expected to spend a month in Australia for the shooting of her Yash Raj film. But the actress left Mumbai two days before the start of her shooting schedule (which will begin on January 7) to spend time with Yuvraj.
Yuvi would definitely need the cheering after his dismal performance against the Aussies, having managed just 17 runs in three innings so far.

Deepika and Yuvraj have been linked up by the media on numerous occasions, though the couple have always mainatined that they are 'good friends.' Before Yuvraj came into the picture, Deepika was paired up with Indian captain M S Dhoni [Images], but she denied that as well.

Deepika's Yash Raj film will costar Ranbir Kapoor [Images], and will be directed by Siddharth Anand (of Salaam Namaste).
