Jessica Biel is a ‘natural stripper’

Actress Jessica Biel could become a professional stripper, according to her dance coach.

The 27-year-old beauty, who is being trained in the skill for new movie ‘ Powder Blue ’, could take up dancing as a career because it comes naturally to her, said the actress’ coach, renowned burlesque stripper Cati Jean.

“From our very first session she picked it up and in no time reached professional level,” the Daily Express quoted Biel, as saying.

Cati, who runs a French cabaret show in Hollywood, said she would love to include Biel in a future performance.

“She comes from a dance background, so that helped, but she was also very hard-working. She achieved such a high level I’d like to have her as a guest star in our show,” Jean said.

However, the actress said: “I had so much to do and so much to learn. I have a great respect for the women who do this for a living.”

Hannah Montana: The Movie’s Happy Easter

Trend-alert update: Tween girls—still powerful; Hannah Montana—still potent; Miley Cyrus—her world, welcome to it.

Cyrus’ Hannah Montana: The Movie scored an estimated $34 million at the weekend box office, blowing past Fast & Furious and blowing away projections.

“What she pulled off here, based on tracking, is amazing,” Disney distribution president Chuck Viane said today. “It’s a tribute to her and her fan base.”

Drilling down into the numbers:

• A regular, old 2D comedy, Hannah Montana: The Movie took in more in its Friday-Sunday debut than last year’s Hannah Montana concert movie—or February’s Jonas Brothers concert movie—did at 3D prices.

• Expected to hit the upper $20 millions—tops, Hannah Montana ended up as the second-biggest Easter weekend opener of all-time, behind 2006’s Scary Movie 4 ($40.2 million).

• Disney’s own modest expectations for Hannah Montana were not influenced by what its Jonas Brothers movie did—or didn’t—do. “This is so different,” Viane said. “This is a live-action movie versus a concert…It’s a different world.”

• If you were a girl, you were 8 and it was Friday, chances are you were in line at the multiplex. Hannah Montana’s opening-day gross of $17.3 million was the biggest-ever for a G-rated film.

• Though the consensus pick to finish No. 1, second-place Fast & Furious didn’t so much underperform as Hannah Montana overperformed. The car movie held okay, collecting another $28.8 million and bringing its two-weekend haul to a hefty $118 million.

• Monsters vs. Aliens ($22.6 million) held really well, with ticket sales down only 31 percent from last weekend. At $141 million overall, it’s closing in on the esteemable Paul Blart: Mall Cop as the year’s top-grossing movie.

• Seth Rogen’s mojo led the black comedy Observe and Report to a decent $11.1 million debut. The take improved on the opening-weekend performance of Rogen’s last out-of-mainstream comedy, Zack and Miri Make a Porno.

• The manga-based Dragonball: Evolution ($4.7 million) did not feature Cyrus or Rogen. As its eighth-place debut attested.

• Race to Witch Mountain ($2 million) exited the Top 10 after four weekends and a $62.1 million run.

• Sunshine Cleaning ($1.8 million) moved into nearly 600 theaters, but slipped out of the Top 10. The indie comedy stands at $7.2 million overall.

• Vin Diesel, Miley Cyrus and Monsters vs. Aliens have Hollywood rolling again. Ticket revenue is now running 13.4 percent ahead of last year. Attendance is up nearly 12 percent.

Here’s a complete look at the weekend’s top-grossing films based on Friday-Sunday estimates as compiled by Exhibitor Relations:

1. Hannah Montana: The Movie, $34 million
2. Fast & Furious, $28.8 million
3. Monsters vs. Aliens, $22.6 million
4. Observe and Report, $11.1 million
5. Knowing, $6.7 million
6. I Love You, Man, $6.4 million
7. The Haunting in Connecticut, $5.7 million
8. Dragonball: Evolution, $4.7 million
9. Adventureland, $3.4 million
10. Duplicity, $3 million

BRYN TERFEL - OPERA SINGER CAUGHT SHORT

British opera singer BRYN TERFEL almost had to pull out of a recent concert - after forgetting his trousers.
The world-renowned star opted to wear a pair of shorts to travel from his hotel to a show in front of thousands of eager fans in Seoul, South Korea.
But the singer was left red-faced when he realised just minutes before he was due on stage that he had forgotten to pack his trousers.
Terfel reveals, "One can be a bit forgetful on the day of a concert - and I forgot my trousers at the hotel. But what could I do? Tell the audience 'I'm sorry, but I have to wear my shorts'?"
Luckily for Terfel - and the paying audience - a concert-goer was on hand to help him out.
The singer adds, "There was one person there who happened to be the same height as me. And if there was ever a pair of trousers that fits like a glove - that's the one."

Death Comes Knocking On 90210's Door

Sex, drugs, alcohol and murder. "Oddly enough all of those things [happen in the finale]," teased 90210 star Rob Estes at last night's Paley Festival event.

Wait, murder? "There may be a death at the very end of the season." That's right, kids, someone in America's most famous zip code may be saying goodbye for good.

Also, not one but two students are leaving West Beverly High, and we have the deets on a freak-out that will shock you, especially since it comes from someone other than resident bipolar gal-pal Silver (Jessica Stroup).

New Moon Taps Michael Sheen to Play Baddest Vamp

Summit Entertainment, Screen Gems

From cutthroat journalist to blood-sucking vampire.

British actor Michael Sheen is joining Robert Pattinson & Co. in New Moon, the sequel to the blockbuster film Twilight, a studio rep has confirmed to E! News.

In the new film due out this fall, Sheen, 40, will play Aro, the leader of the deadly Volturi vampire coven that wants to ensure humans never find out bloodsuckers exist.

Sheen is best known for playing David Frost in last year's Oscar-nominated Frost/Nixon and as former British Prime Minister Tony Blair in 2006's Oscar-winning film The Queen with Helen Mirren.

New Moon isn't the first movie in which Sheen portrays a monster: He also appeared in 2003's Underworld starring Kate Beckinsale, with whom he has a daughter.

Fabio Wrecks Ferrari ... That Wasn't His

We've learned Italian model Fabio Lanzoni wrecked one of the most expensive cars in the world Saturday afternoon -- and it didn't even belong to him.



We're told the Italian model was driving a Ferrari -- which was property of World Class Driving -- on Mulholland Drive near Calabasas, Cal. when he hit a turn going too fast and lost control of the car.

Sources say the ridiculously expensive ride struck something off road, causing damage to the front and back ends on the right side of the car.

Unlike the Ferrari, Fabio walked away pretty much unscathed, because we're told he was taking photos with fans at the Hyatt Hotel later that afternoon.

A rep for WCD released this statement to us: "No comment. We are not very proud of the fact that Fabio wrecked our car." Calls to Fabio's reps haven't been returned.

Naomi Campbell: From Hot Mess to...Hot Mama?

If we didn't know any better, we'd be scared of Naomi Campbell right now. The world's most infamous BlackBerry-thrower owns not one, not two, but three phones.

We're happy to report, however, that the 39-year-old supermodel appears to have tamed her wild ways.

In fact, Campbell insists she has cleaned up her act—literally...

"There comes a point when it all catches up with you and you have to deal with it," Campbell says in the new issue of Giant magazine. "And that caused me to reassess myself and get real treatment for my anger and my addictions. Some people can handle a drink or a line of cocaine, but I've finally come to realize that for me, it's all or nothing—and it has to be nothing."

The reformed bad girl found help to get herself in check (Alcoholics Anonymous, we're thinking). "I'm in The Program, and I'm proud to be," she says. "I'm not able to drink alcohol. My body cannot handle it. The discipline of The Program has helped me in other parts of my day-to-day life...I wish I knew about it earlier, but I found out about it when I did, and life is good."

With newfound sobriety and clarity, Campbell says she's ready to start making babies. Her boyfriend, whom she calls "my other half," is Russian billionaire Vladislav Doronin. They reportedly share a home in Moscow.

"If God blesses me to have a child, I'd be gratefully welcoming to that child," Campbell says. "But I'm not putting myself under that pressure. I'm happy that my life is just what it is."

Now, back to those three phones. What the heck are they all for?

Well, one is for the U.K. only, another is strictly for texting, and the last is for U.S. calls. We hope that phone-as-weapon thing will remain a memory—otherwise someone's in for some rapid fire.

Hannah Montana: The Movie: Hick, Hick Hooray!

Review in a Hurry: Wooee, dogies! Hang up your disbelief right next to your cowboy hat or else the ridiculous pretense of this wholesome, Hollywood-meets-hayseeds flick just might make you spit on your whittlin'.

The Bigger Picture: For years, nobody has managed to figure out that teen supersinger Hannah Montana is really just a normal country girl named Miley Stewart—disguised in a blond Hedwig hairpiece and some go-go boots. Sure, both girls have voices like a Reno barfly, and they share the exact same overlapping squirrel teeth—similarities that you'd think an obsessed tween would notice in the time it takes to upload side-by-side photos on Flickr. But the wig—the wig! It's the hairpiece that fools the planet, a device that allows the fictional Miley to have the "best of both worlds," a booming career and a normal life.

Or not so normal. In this big-screen musical adaptation of the hit Disney TV show, Stewart (Miley Cyrus) has gone a bit too Hollywood for her daddy's liking. After Miley gets into a fight with an overacting Tyra Banks over a pair of shoes, the girl is tricked by daddy Robby Ray (real-life dad Billy Ray Cyrus) into cooling her heels back home in Tennessee for a few weeks. There, Miley will accompany her mee-maw to the farmers market, gaze wistfully as the local folks pick their guitars on the front porch and flirt with a clean-cut local cowyouth. No one is ever seen watching TV or fiddling with the Intertubes. That would be not wholesome.

The whole thing comes to a climax when Stewart's double life seems finally doomed to unravel forever, thanks in part to a stock gossip-reporter character who catches wind of Hannah's big secret. Parents will find their suspension of disbelief stretched thinner than a beanpole at the movie's climax, though the kiddie target audience will likely walk away enchanted by the overall message of hometown goodwill.

The 180—a Second Opinion: Cyrus does not skimp on quality, delivering well-produced original songs and a knockout dance number, while director Peter Chelsom's on-location shooting is gorgeous.

Spencer & Heidi Prepare for Reality-Based Wedding

E! News has learned exclusively that Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag are set to tie the knot on Saturday, April 25, in an undisclosed location in Pasadena, Calif.

"This will be the real wedding," says a source close to the couple, who last November staged a fake wedding for cameras in Mexico. "It's being filmed as the season finale for The Hills."

A rep for the couple declined comment.

E! News has learned that the controversial reality couple has already invited about 110 guests to the nuptials, but the list is expected to grow even larger as the wedding date nears. A source says the couple plans to wed in a sunset ceremony and is looking at a rooftop location for a reception.

Montag has already picked out her dress and, in fact, on at 3 p.m. on Thursday had her final fitting at the Monique Lhuillier boutique in Los Angeles.

Our favourite pictures of the day...

There's only a few things heatworld loves more than celebrities, and one of them is definitely cute animals. If those cute animals just happen to be doing or wearing something funny, then all the better – which is why we are slightly obsessed with these hilarious horse pictures. The three handsome horses were given hair extensions – yes, that's right, hair extensions – for a special one-off shoot with photographer Julian Wolkenstein, who says he did it "just for fun". Talking about the amazing pictures, he said, "Each horse took four hours to groom and a whole day to shoot." Blimey! We actually think all these horses look much better than any celebs with hair extensions. And we also now know where Lindsay Lohan got the inspiration for her new look. Hee hee. Which horse is your favourite? We think we love them all equally.

Er, is this REALLY the second greatest album of all time?!

Don’t get us wrong, for about two minutes in 2001, it did seem like Craig David was Officially Quite Good – we liked all that “took her for a drink on Monday, did something illegal in several countries on Tuesday, snuck into the STD clinic on Wednesday” business – but we’re really not sure how this has happened. Craig’s album Born To Do It has somehow been voted the second greatest album of all time in a new MTV poll. More than 40,000 viewers of different MTV channels voted in the poll which was won, less surprisingly, by Michael Jackson’s Thriller album. However, 12 per cent of voters said they very much liked a bit of Craig David all over their boink, as he beat the likes of Radiohead and Nirvana to take second place. Hmm, do we smell a scam? “At the time of having this vote and knowing that it's so many different genres of MTV, even if my fans were just trying to make the vote, I really don't think it would've made any difference,” says Craig. “You're talking massive albums, we're talking artists who have incredibly massive fan bases. U2 – these people are selling out stadiums around the world. You'd think if it was based on votes of how big certain bands and artists are, then other people would've been in those top spots. It's an incredible honour because Michael Jackson was one of the main artists that inspired me while writing that record. So to actually be placed number two behind such an incredible album that was just so consistent with singles that were just hits, to know that people have voted Born To Do It at number two is incredible. I'm very, very proud and very thankful to the UK public for supporting in that way. It's beautiful having a British album right behind Michael Jackson. That's the way we're doing it right now.” Um, is it just us or did most of that make no sense? And this man’s the second greatest artist ever? We demand a recount! Because at the moment the whole thing sounds like an altogether different kind of number two…

Miley: “My boyfriend has brought me closer to the Lord”

Seeing as it’s nearly Easter, we thought we’d get a bit religious on you. Or, at least, we thought we’d let Miley Cyrus get a bit religious on you. In a surprising new interview, the Disney starlet has spoken out about how her hot older boyfriend Justin Gaston has made her more religious. “I've never been closer to the Lord since I met him,” she says. “He's really made me read my Bible. He's made me actually read the stories in the Bible – not the quick little verses – that not only help me, but show you how to help other people.” Miley also says that she wasn’t that sure about Justin when they first met (is she blind?!) after being introduced by her Achey Breaky dad Billy Ray. “Honestly, I didn't like him at first,” she reveals. “I was like, 'Great, another songwriter. This should be fun.' He's, like, the coolest guy, so it’s good. He's very cute, but I don't think he gets as much credit as he should because he's a really good guy.” Hmm, what do you think about Miley gushing about her boyfriend and the Lord?

Miley Is Officially The New Britney!

According to a recent poll, Britney Spears is no longer Queen of the Tweens. They have crowned Miley Cyrus their new leader instead!

Only 10%, however, think that Slutty Cyrus is a good role model!

So, even though it looks like teens don't have good taste, they have some sort of moral grounding!

Hey, we'll take it!

The Jonas Brothers came in second, and Brit Brit rounded up a comfy third place spot in the Popularity poll.

And because we knew you were curious, Taylor Swift was voted the best influence on teens.

DRAMA At Britney Concert!!! Spears Puts Show On Hold Midway In

Ohhh, the irony!

Britney Spears, a smoker, put the breaks on her Vancouver concert Wednesday night because it was too smokey in the arena.

We shit you not!

The Toxic performer, who doesn't even sing live at her shows, walked off stage after just three songs.

The concert came to a complete standstill, lights off, for over 20 minutes - when a voice came over the speaker system and announced that the show would not continue if people kept smoking marijuana (and cigarettes) in the arena. The announcer claimed it was "unsafe" for Britney and the performers to continue with the concert.

Almost 40 minutes later, Spears finally took to the stage again, much to the relief of the thousands in attendance. But, one concertgoer tells us, "She did not look into it at all!"

Maybe Britney was afraid the secondhand pot smoke would get on her hair and shit and would fuck up any random drugs testing she has to undergo to keep custody of her kids or to prove she's not on the drugs again????

Update: We have just obtained an exclusive statement from Spears' camp about the incident in Vancouver.

A rep tells us, "We want to apologize to all the fans who attended our Vancouver show tonight for the brief pause in Britney's set. Crew members above the stage became ill due to a ventilation issue."

Sources tell us it really was a safety issue. "We were concerned for the lighting guys and everyone else working on the show." If one of those guys up above got dizzy or sick from all that marijuana smoke….it wouldn't have been pretty.

Update #2: After the final encore, as Spears ran off the stage, Britney told the audience, "Thanks Vancouver. You were wonderful. Drive safe. Don't smoke weed!" Ha.

Britney Spears, anti-drug crusader.

Priceless!

10cc Release 'Very Best Of' This Month

10cc wrote some of the best pop songs ever. They were witty and satiric, they were poignant and affectionate, they had great beats and they told stories that resonated.

“I’m Not In Love”, “Rubber Bullets”, “Dreadlock Holiday”, “I’m Mandy Fly Me”, “Art For Art’s Sake”, “Life Is A Minestrone”, “Donna”, “Good Morning Judge”, “The Things We Do For Love”, “The Dean And I”, “Wall Street Shuffle” - great songs, terrific musicianship and inspired production.

“The Very Best Of 10cc” features all these hits and more. Out on April 20th on UMTV, the CD will be TV advertised and promoted by a major tour of the current 10cc fronted by Graham Gouldman.

Graham was one of the original members of 10cc when they formed in 1972 in Manchester. Songwriter extraordinaire, he’d already written “Bus Stop” and “Look Through Any Window” for the Hollies, “No Milk Today” for Herman’s Hermits and “For Your Love” and “Heart Full Of Soul” for the Yardbirds . His song-writing talents were put to good use in 10cc.

He’s the recipient of three Ivor Novello Awards for “I’m Not In Love” and two other Ivors for “Rubber Bullets”. He’s written five No 1 songs and countless other chart numbers. “I’m Not in Love”, which he wrote with Eric Stewart, has been played over 3 million times on US radio and is one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century. “Things We Do For Love”, which he also wrote with Eric, has been played over 2 million times on US radio and in the UK alone 10cc has sold more than 15 million albums.

The four strong 10cc (Kevin Godley, Lol Creme, Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman) launched their career on Jonathan King’s ‘UK Records’ label with the 50s doo-wop pastiche “Donna”. It went to No 2 and the hits followed thick and fast.

In 1976 Godley and Creme left to pursue a recording and video production career while Stewart and Gouldman retained the 10cc tag. They recruited drummer Paul Burgess who had played with the original four members of 10cc on numerous tours and, later, additional members Rick Fenn (guitar), Stuart Tosh (drums) and Tony O'Malley (keyboards). Various changes followed but with Rick Fenn and Paul Burgess remaining constant to this day.

In 1983 Stewart and Gouldman parted ways (although briefly working together in the 90s) with the former producing Sad Café and collaborating with Paul McCartney while Gouldman produced Gilbert O'Sullivan and the Ramones before forming the duo Wax with Andrew Gold. (Wax has sold over 2 million albums to date.)

Madonna pledges $500,000 for quake victims

Pop star’s paternal grandparents came from Italian town south of epicenter

Spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg says Madonna has pledged a “substantial amount,” but didn’t disclose the exact figure.

Madonna’s paternal grandparents came from Pacentro, which is 60 miles south of L’Aquila, the epicenter of Monday’s quake.At least 260 people have died in the devastating disaster. It was the worst quake to hit Italy in three decades.

EXCLUSIVE: Taylor Swift Donates Her Prom Dress to Charity

Country superstar Taylor Swift has had the opportunity to wear beautiful dresses to events like the Grammy Awards and ACM Awards. But there is one gown that isn’t just sitting in the back of her closet: her prom dress! Swift has given her long cream and gold Jessica McClintock gown to Hearst Magazines’ DonateMyDress.org, the first national network to bring together local dress drive organizations across the U.S., to help girls give and find the dress of their dreams. Taylor was more than happy to part with her dress, which she posed in with her best friend Abigail Anderson, saying, “I chose to give away this prom dress because I wore it once and loved it! To keep it around, hanging there all by itself and lonely in my closet, never to be worn again seemed a little pointless. I want another girl somewhere to feel good in it and have a great prom night because of this dress.” Taylor’s dress sold for a whopping $1,200 in DonateMyDress.org’s first celebrity dress charity auction. Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, Nikki Blonsky, Eva Amurri, Ashley Greene and other stars all donated their dresses to the auction run by CharityFolks.com.
