Cheryl Cole’s rumoured boyfriend Derek Hough has left the US version of Strictly Come Dancing to pursue his career in movies. Hough has revealed that he is taking a break from Dancing With The Stars (DWTS) in order to make his big-screen debut. The 25-year-old dancing pro has landed the lead role in the forthcoming movie Cobu 3D, which is due to start filming in New York and Toronto this spring. Hough will play a New Orleans street dancer who moves to New York and falls for an Asian drummer, played by Korean singer BoA. “People will see a much edgier side of me and these other styles of dance I’m capable of doing,” he told a US website. The three-times champion will skip Season 12 of the show, due to begin airing in March, but insists he will be back for the next series. “I will be making it back to Dancing With The Stars in the [autumn],” he said. “I’m just taking a break and taking the chance to grow and expand a little bit as an artist. It’s like I told one of the producers on the show — I’ll come back with a whole new set of skills.” DWTS producers are standing by Hough’s decision, but looking forward to having him back for Season 13. Executive producer Conrad Green said: “We wish Derek the best as he takes time off from Dancing With The Stars to pursue his film career, and look forward to having him return to the show in the fall.”

It seems that the two singers aren’t really under the most friendly of terms. A quick look at their twitter activity would reflect this very clearly. In reply to Ciara tweeting about how tweets reflect a person’s character, 50 Cent had this to reply: “Yea I tweet things that reflect my character bitch. I have a sense of humor get one.lol that’s why your 3 mill followers behind me.” Supposedly there were rumors going around about 50 Cent and Ciara actually having a thing for one another, but it pretty much looks like that particular ship has sailed. At least 50 Cent still has his sense of humor.

My Name is Earl actress Jaime Pressly has split with her husband of 16 months, Simran Singh. A source told UsMagazine.com: “They are done.” Another insider added: “It’s over. I don’t think they have officially filed anything yet though. “I think it comes down to that she married this guy too fast. He seemed like a good guy but he is super full of himself and puts her down for everything. He picks fights with her for any little thing.” The insider added that Pressly is worried about how the break-up will affect her son Dezi, three, who she had with ex-fiancé Eric Cubiche. The source said: “She doesn’t want to confuse him. Her baby is her top priority. She is a strong girl though and she will come out of this fine.”
