After going out with her current boyfriend, Justin Scott, for seven years now, it seems that Girls Aloud singer Kimberly Walsh has finally reached her magic number and is ready to settle down now. This is what Kimberly Walsh said on the matter: “I’m definitely leaning towards having a family much more. I don’t know whether it’s my age or because I’ve got to a point in my life where I’m more happy to settle down and look after someone else rather than just thinking about myself, but I’m feeling that maternal urge.” Aw, isn’t that sweet! Still, one must acknowledge the valiant efforts of Justin Scott and those other poor souls before him that actually had the diligence to work toward a number such as seven years. Kimberly Walsh must really have did a number on him.

Movie legend Dennis Hopper has filed for divorce while reportedly on his deathbed, according to US reports.

The Easy Rider star is reportedly facing his “final days surrounded by family and friends” while losing the battle against prostate cancer.

Even so, court records show that the ailing 73-year-old has still filed divorce papers against Victoria Hopper, his wife of 14 years.

The drastic move came reportedly as they squabbled over money and his will – and according to one US report Victoria has now “barricaded herself” in their LA home while the star is on his deathbed in hospital.

The New York Post states: “Hopper, who isn’t expected to live more than a month, is trying to keep his wife from contesting his will, which apparently leaves her only a quarter of his estate. He’s also hoping it will force Victoria from the compound where Hopper and two of his grown children and their families live.”

Victoria is wife number five, but this marriage has far outlasted the previous four, which included the 8-day marriage to Michelle Phillips. He and Victoria have been together for 18 years and have a six-year-old daughter, Galen.

A friend says Hopper’s condition – which has him “mentally incapacitated from the enormous amounts of medication he is on” for his treatment – is “adding to the confusion”.

Ricky Gervais has poked fun at Paul McCartney about his costly divorce from Heather Mills.

The Office star singled out the Beatles legend at the 67th Annual Golden Globes.

Gervais, who was hosting the Hollywood awards show, said of McCartney: “We actually came over on the same flight. I didn’t get to speak to him because I was up the front in first class. He was behind me in coach. Saving money. He spent an awful lot last year. I don’t think we have to feel too sorry for him. He’s doing alright.”

The camera then showed a stony-faced McCartney – who was at the bash with his American socialite girlfriend, Nancy Shevell – raising his hand to his mouth as he listened to Gervais speak.

Noah Wyle and his wife, Tracy, separated after 11 years of marriage, Wyle’s representative said.

Eddie Michaels on behalf of both Wyles said: “Tracy Wyle and Noah Wyle, who separated in late October 2009, have confirmed they have entered into a mediation process. Neither has legally filed for divorce. Tracy and Noah live in separate residences, however their two children [Owen, 7, and Auden, 4] see both parents daily.”

Wyle, who played the character of John Carter – the highly strung young doctor and scion of wealth in ER – is a TV heart-throb. The couple met on the set of Myth Of Fingerprints, where Tracy was Tracy Warbin, a make-up artist. They were married in 1998.

A friend of the couple said: “They’re co-operative with each other and have put the interests of their children ahead of anything else.”

US actor Ryan Gosling, 29, is dating British actress Jaime Murray, 32, according to US reports.

Gosling was previously the boyfriend of Rachel McAdams, with whom he starred in The Notebook.

Their relationship started up after filming the romantic classic in 2004 and ran through to a split in 2007 and a brief reconciliation in 2008.

Murray stars on Dexter. The pair were sighted at a Las Vegas nightclub, Lavo, seeing in the new year. A source said: “She’s a sexy, edgy brunette. He’s intrigued. He and Jaime have fantastic chemistry.” Murray starred in Devil’s Playground. She trained at Drama Centre London, graduating in 2000 after dropping out of psychology studies at London Drama School.

Lovely Bones star Mark Wahlberg is saying the ‘more the merrier’ regarding more children but says his wife Rhea is ‘done’.

Mark, 38, recently became a dad for the fourth time when Rhea gave birth to daughter Grace Margaret. The couple are already parents to Ella, six, Michael, three-and-a-half, and Brendan, 16 months.

Talking on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, he said: “I’m the youngest of nine. So the more the merrier.”

However, he added: “My wife has always wanted four, two boys and two girls, so miraculously she got everything she wanted. She’s saying she’s done.”

Grace was born earlier this week and Mark said his wife enjoyed the tranquility of the hospital so much she didn’t want to leave.

He said: “She likes hanging out at the hospital. It was the first time we had a couple of days of peace and quiet, even though she had to go through the pain of giving birth.”

He added: “She didn’t really want to go home!”

Former Girls Next Door star Holly Madison said she is ‘in love’ with her new bachelorette house.

The 30-year-old recently got herself a new five-bedroom house in Las Vegas after living in the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino suite since leaving the Playboy Mansion last year.

She said: “I’m in love with it! I have a sauna and a hot tub. What I love most is the pool and the outdoors.

“I’ve been living with my dogs in a hotel for the last six months, and they’ve been itching for an outdoors.”

Madison left the mansion last year and said she still misses certain parts of her old lifestyle.

She said: “I miss the animals and the zoo. I want them back. And there were a lot of people in the Mansion who were like family and stuff, but I’m really happy being on my own and doing my own thing now.”

It looks like the winner of the X Factor has a few issues about the mysteriously exciting world of dating. Must be the reason why she is still in search of a mate. This is what Alexandra Burke said on the matter: “It’s hard not to be wary so when someone comes along I always put my guard up. I have to remember not to judge everyone because there are good people out there in the world. Although I have always convinced myself that there is never going to be a good person, there is. I need to be careful of not judging a book by its cover.” Books you can sometimes judge by their covers… but people do not have covers. Alexandra Burke does make an interesting point… but still, as the ancients say: no pain, no gain.

Johnny Depp’s long-term partner Vanessa Paradis has said the actor is still the love of her life.

Paradis, 37, has been dating the Hollywood actor for the past 11 years and they have two children – Lily Rose, 10, and Jack, seven.

She said to UK’s Sunday Times Magazine: “I’d wanted to be a mother for a long time, but with him I couldn’t avoid it. He was, and still is, the love of my life.”

Talking about how they make their relationship last, she said: “There is a lot of friendship between us, respect and admiration. We’ve understood that if we want it to carry on working, it’s essential to give each other space.

“You don’t eat the same food every day, you don’t read the same book or listen to the same record over and over again. You have to discover things for yourself.”

Michael Buble recently got engaged as the singer proposed to his Argentina-born girlfriend Luisana Lopilato, who he met at a 2008 concert in Buenos Aires. A close friend shared some details of the proposal saying “He proposed in Argentina, in front of Lu’s whole family. They both cried — they’re ecstatic.” Michael then whisked her off to Hawaii. The source continued “He was introducing Lu to everyone in the restaurant, proudly proclaiming, ‘We’re engaged’. He was so happy to show her off. The next day Michael was sad because he had to put Lu on a private plane to Buenos Aires — she stars in an Argentine TV soap opera and she had to be on set. But she’ll be back in Vancouver or Los Angeles with him in a few weeks.”

George Clooney’s blissful vacation with Elisabetta Canalis has whipped up rumours the pair will settle down.

Clooney has toted the Italian TV presenter to all of his recent movie premieres at top festivals and spent solid time with her and his best friends Cindy Crawford and husband Rande Gerber. The foursome got together in Cabo San Lucas over the holiday break.

A friend who spent New Year with the gang said: “I’ve never seen George so serious about a girlfriend before. They were really happy together.”

Clooney, meanwhile, has developed a concern that the world will start a marriage countdown on him. A friend said: “George is still preoccupied with the paparazzi covering his love life. He kept going on and on about how we need more laws to ban them. It’s like he’s obsessed.”

Leonardo DiCaprio and his girlfriend Bar Refaeli and Jessica Alba and her husband Cash Warren joined the glittering group in Cabo.

It seems that the newly-engaged singer has caught everybody’s attention since she was recently seen looking at baby clothes. This is what a source related about Katy Perry’s new intriguing actions: “Russell and Katy had a wander around Hampstead. They visited children’s shoe shop Cubs and had a lot of fun checking out all the little bootees. They then went to Cafe Rouge for a bit of lunch. Katy ordered scrambled eggs and asked for the eggs to be ‘well done.’ And when Russell asked for a portion of chips she loudly announced to the waiter, ‘Hold the mayo.’” Well, even if she isn’t pregnant, it does seem like Katy Perry’s mind is really made-up about this marriage. The Russell Brand effect strikes again!

It seems the singer has managed to get engaged to his Argentinean girlfriend, Luisana Lopilato. This is what a representative of Michael Buble related on the matter: “Michael proposed to Luisana in November, in front of her family in Argentina. They’re ecstatic. They’re adorable, in love and laugh all day long.” So he proposed in November and only now did she give him the answer? Well… at least it was an affirmative one, so who’s complaining. Maybe if they get divorced, Michael Buble will get a few extra months to compensate for this small error, eh? That would only seem fair.

There have been some rather embarrassing reports about Beyonce’s performance on New Year’s Eve. Apparently the performance was paid for by the Gaddafi family who are apparently known terrorist supporters. However, Beyonce’s representatives decided to eliminate all of this nonsense with the following statement: “The party in St. Bart’s on New Year’s Eve, with Beyoncé in performance, was hosted by Muatsim-Billah Gaddafi, not his brother Moutassim Bilal “Hannibal” Gaddafi, as reported in the press.” The press says tomato and Beyonce’s agents say… well, tamato. That really cleared things up didn’t it? Now there is no further doubt as to who Beyonce gets her salary from.

Former Spice Girls singer Mel B has hinted that she could be joining the X Factor.

The 34-year-old was recently revealed as one of the judges on new US reality show, Dance Your Ass Off, and she hinted in a recent interview that she might also be joining the UK talent show.

Talking about the rumours, she said: “Who knows what’s going to happen? We’ll see. That’s something I can’t talk about.”

Mel, whose former Spice Girls band member Victoria Beckham recently appeared as a guest judge on American Idol, added: “I think the show’s great. I’ve seen Simon a few times.

“I think he’s an amazing businessman. And I’ve met Cheryl a few times. She’s a really lovely lady.”

It was fun while it lasted apparently… but too all things must come an end, it seems. Britney Spears and Jason Tarwick after she found out he was getting frisky with two women in an LA bar. This is what a source related about Britney Spears’ much too playful boyfriend: “When she heard he’d been caught cozying up two girls in The Roger Room, it was the last straw. Jason’s really not like this and quickly tried to calm Britney down and rectify the situation. He explained the girls were just friends and there was nothing in it but they still had a massive row. Everyone is assuming it’s over – for the time being anyway.” It looks like Britney Spears has developed quite the temper, no listening to explanations, no benefit of the doubt, just wham: get out! Oh well, back to Bible Camp.

Jude Law and Sienna Miller are reportedly planning to move in together after recently reuniting.

The British couple were spotted enjoying a break in the Caribbean over Christmas and they were seen on a beach with Law’s three children, whose mum is his ex-wife Sadie Frost.

Law, 37, used to be engaged to Miller, 28, but they split in November 2006 after it was reported that he had an affair with his children’s nanny.

A source said to OK!: “Jude never stopped loving her the whole time they were apart. The only question is if they want to be in New York, London or both. The main thing is they’re both older and wiser. So their chances of staying together are looking good this time around.”

It seems that people are becoming more and more modest with the passing of time. Carrie Underwood recently admitted that for her wedding she wants nothing too extravagant or expensive. This is what she said on the matter: “I want a groom, good food and an open bar.” Well, she clearly made her point, however, Carrie Underwood also added the following small desires in regards to her wedding: “I’m Southern. I like big hair and eyeliner. I want my wedding day to be me, so I’ll probably be rocking some big hair and some eyeliner.” So that why Carrie Underwood wants the wedding to be so simple, a complex element always stands-out in a multitude of simple ones, eh?

Russell Brand and Katy Perry have become engaged, according to a report out of the US.

The rogue lothario and American pop singer and daughter of Christian evangelists are reported engaged in a US magazine exclusive.

Brand was said to have popped the question the traditional way – with a ring.

The pair became engaged five days ago while on holiday in Jaipur, India. They have been keeping almost constant company in Los Angeles and London since hooking up at the MTV Video Music Awards in September.

Perry has tweeted enthusiastically of their India trip, saying of the Taj Mahal: “He built this for me.”

The India trip, according to an insider, was a gift from Brand. “She told him how much she loved Indian culture while they were eating curry in England, so he surprised her,” the insider said.

A friend, meanwhile, has said: “[Perry has] never connected with anybody like this. [He] is super into her. She says he makes her laugh like nobody else in the world.”

A sub-plot that had George Clooney’s corporate high flyer character in Up In The Air dealing with cancer was nixed by upstart director Jason Reitman.

After a bit of buzz in the blogosphere, Reitman put to rest the rumour that Clooney’s jaded character who travels light in a life without relationships was also battling cancer.

He said that in the book from which the movie was adapted, “You find out that [Ryan Bingham, Clooney's character] is dying of terminal disease and that he’s going to the Mayo clinic.”

But he decided against including the scene that appeared early on that showed an airline stewardess mistakenly asking Clooney if he “wants the can sir” with Clooney thinking she’s saying “cancer” the first few times.

Reitman said the idea for the scene came out of something he actually saw on a plane. He said he included it because it was a “cute nod” to those who had read the book and because it was just the kind of problem Bingham might have had given his addiction to travel and obsession with flying.
