Mark Owen has admitted to having 10 affairs.

The Take That singer, who wed his long-term partner Emma Ferguson last November, has confessed to being a serial cheat since they first started dating five years ago and admits he has been “an idiot”.

He said, “She loves me and I let her down. I’m really sorry. I have been an idiot, a d***head, a k***head. All of the above and more. It’s about me, my mistakes. Nobody else is to blame. I don’t know how many girls there were in all. Maybe 10.”

The 38-year-old star – who has two children with his wife, Elwood, three, and 14-month-old Willow Rose – admitted one affair with Neva Hanley, an accounts manager, continued for almost five years even though he always knew Emma was the one he would marry.

He said, “In my head there was never a time I was doubting getting married. It was a chance for me to put it all behind me and not make the mistakes I had made in the past.

“When I have been in a bad way Neva has been there for me. All the other girls were one night stands. When I was on tour, away from home on wild nights out, which was every night. I’m not in contact with any of them.”

The pop star, who claims he has been faithful since his wedding last year, wishes he’d come clean with Emma sooner but admits he hasn’t always been easy to live with.

He confessed, “I have been living with the guilt. It has always been there – you carry it around with you. It held me back in my relationship.

“Life was hard, I guess. I let Emma down. I was selfish and stubborn. If we ever argued, it was down to me.

“I have noticed a change since I stopped drinking, but I am quite difficult. It wasn’t the sunshine Emma was hoping for but it is better. I have always liked a drink and I am a party man.”

The ‘Patience’ hitmaker hopes Emma will forgive him but accepts the fact his confession may spell the end for his marriage.

He added in an interview with The Sun newspaper, “Emma is a strong girl. She has to do what is right for her and the kids. And I am here if she wants me.

“She is the best thing that has happened to me. I want us to grow together and be together – but let’s see what happens.”

In a shocking turn of events, Howard Stern has said something sort of racist, undeniably misogynistic and totally dick.

Stern, not known for his charitable feelings toward the fairer sex, blasted the praise heaped upon breakout actress Gabourey Sidibe on his show yesterday. For lack of a better term, Stern seems to think that Sidibe is a bit of a one trick pony, and won’t work again due to being “the size of a planet” and, ostensibly, “black.” (Someone should tell this year’s fat black Oscar winner Mo’Nique that fat black women don’t have futures in entertainment because she’s probably under the opposite impression, having won an Academy Award and all.)

Stern railed:

“There’s the most enormous, fat black chick I’ve ever seen. She is enormous. Everyone’s pretending she’s a part of show business and she’s never going to be in another movie,” he said. “She should have gotten the Best Actress award because she’s never going to have another shot. What movie is she gonna be in?”

Well, Howard, considering there are women in our society who are fat, black or both, perhaps she could portray one on the stage or screen? Yes, Sidibe doesn’t have the marketability of say, Jessica Alba, but “never going to have another shot” is a bit dramatic, isn’t it? Howard wasn’t the only Sidibe detractor though- formerly fat, still black Robin Quivers seemed to agree with Stern:

“And Oprah’s lying and saying you’re going to have a brilliant career,” said Robin.

“Oprah’s another liar, a filthy liar,” said Stern. “She’s telling an enormous woman the size of a planet that she’s going to have a career.”

Indeed! Where would Oprah get the preposterous notion that a black woman of size could ever become successful? That’s like saying a fat black lady could become the richest woman in our society, wield enormous influence over American women and cause books to sell out like they have crack cocaine embedded in the pages. Silly Oprah. What redonkulous claim will she make next, that a fat black woman could get a job as a sidekick to a cranky, misogynistic, plastic obsessed radio host with a giant ego? People are so delusional.

Unemployable Gabby is set to appear in “Yelling to the Sky” and a new Showtime series, “The C Word.”

Lady Gaga could fall in love with a woman.

The ‘Bad Romance’ singer, who has previously admitted to be being bisexual, insists she has no boundaries on her relationships but views love and sex as two very separate things.

When asked if she could see herself falling for a woman, she said, “Of course. There are no rules or limits when it comes to love. But I see love as separate from sex.

“And I happen to love male sexuality. Men have something I lack, but that I really value.”

Gaga claims the search to find love fuels her creativity but admits she is worried her career will be over if she settles down.

She added, “Love is about danger, always. Love jumps off cliffs, love is irrational. It keeps you alive and it destroys you. The search for love provides nourishment for your artistic soul. I’m afraid that as soon as you really find love, there won’t be anything left to write songs about.”

Despite her fame, the 23-year-old star – whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, admits she feels lonely on the road, so throws herself into her work.

She told Now magazine, “I’m not looking at all. But I’ve got enough muses.

“When you’re on tour you’re totally focused on your performances and you don’t notice much else. And you spend a lot more time in hotel rooms than people think. I often sit up and compose so that I can remain in contact with my creative core.”

Sharon Osbourne can’t wait to be a fat granny.

The TV star, who shed a substantial amount of weight after undergoing a gastric band operation nine years ago, is looking forward to the day when she can gorge on food and no longer worry about what she looks like.

She said, “Oh yes. When I stop working on TV the floodgates will open and I’ll end up a fatty, but I’ll be happy. I want to be a granny and grannies are supposed to be fat. Why are people just interested in my size? I’m just a middle-aged woman who happens to be in the limelight.”

The 57-year-old star, who has famously spent over $449,200 on cosmetic surgery, confesses she still isn’t very careful about what passes her lips.

She said, “I’m meant to. You’d have thought I’d have learnt the lesson after having colon cancer and bulimia. The problem is I want to enjoy a dinner with my friends, but I know that the next day I’ll be wearing it on my legs.”

Although Sharon can’t wait can’t wait for one of her children – Aimee, 26, Kelly, 25, and 24-year-old Jack – to make her and husband Ozzy Osbourne grandparents she doesn’t want to be referred to by the traditional title because it would make her sound old.

Instead, the ‘America’s Got Talent’ judge wants her grandchildren to call her “Pookey”.

She said, “I desperately want grandkids, it’s a gift of getting old. But I don’t want to be called gran. And definitely not grandmother. I’d like some kind of doggy type name. Something like Pookey!”

Robert Pattinson was bullied at school – because of his passion for acting.

The ‘Twilight’ heartthrob’s teen years were made tough because the people he studied with tormented him over his thespian ambitions, but he admits his attitude may have contributed to his unpopularity.

Pattinson, who was a pupil at The Harrodian School in west London said, “I got beaten up by a lot of people when I was younger. I was a bit of an idiot, but I always thought the assaults were unprovoked. It was after I first started acting and I liked to behave like an actor, or how I thought an actor was supposed to be, and that apparently provoked a lot of people into hitting me.”

Although the 23-year-old star avoided violence at school, he enjoyed getting physical for his role in new movie ‘Remember Me’, in which he plays Tyler Hawkins a rebellious young man living in New York city and trying to cope with the suicide of his brother.

He added in an interview with Parade.com, “I related to Tyler in that I wish I could have done things like he did when I had the opportunity. There is something quite satisfying about being a little bit more reckless and even fighting. It’s quite cathartic to just sort of randomly start hitting someone. It was fun kind of, letting all your rage go on the set. We had this big scene where I punch out some guys.”

Corey Haim was living with his mother to help her battle cancer prior to his shock death.

The ‘Lost Boys’ actor mother Judy is totally heartbroken by the passing of her son – who died aged 38 at their Los Angeles home on Wednesday, March 10, from an alleged prescription drugs overdose, and has revealed he was caring for her because she has breast cancer.

Judy, who has been undergoing chemotherapy treatment, told website Radar Online, “I am a cancer victim and Corey was helping me at home. He was a good boy. I’m devastated by his death.”

The bereaved parent, who is divorced from Corey’s father Bernie, telephoned emergency services early on Wednesday morning and he was later taken to Providence St. Joseph’s Medical Center, in Burbank, California, where he was pronounced dead.

Los Angeles Coroner assistant chief Ed Winter has now revealed four prescription drugs bottles were found at the apartment.

He said, “There were no illicit drugs found at the residence. There were four normal prescription bottles taken.”

Winter has also confirmed there will now be an investigation to confirm the cause of death, which has currently bee ruled as inconclusive pending an autopsy and toxicology test.

He added, “The Los Angeles Police Department reported it was a possible drug overdose, but we’ve seen no signs of foul play at this time. It’s pending an autopsy and toxicology.”

Corey shot to fame in the 80s after appearing in a string of popular movies, including ‘The Lost Boys’, which also starred Kiefer Sutherland.

Corey had made no secret of his battles with drug abuse and in 2000 he confessed to taking large quantities of the sedative Valium every day.

But it appeared to be a battle he had won and in 2004 he claimed he had overcome his substance abuse problems, saying, “I’m clean, sober, humble and happy.”

The remake/ reboot madness in Hollywood may have hit its lowest possible point with news that a Wizard of Oz remake is being considered.

But it gets worse, because there’s currently two separate remakes of the 1939 Judy Garland classic under consideration.

According to The LA Times,

One project, called “Oz,” currently lives at Warner’s New Line label. It’s being produced by Temple Hill, which is behind a little franchise called “Twilight,” and has a script written by Darren Lemke, a writer on the upcoming “Shrek Forever After.”

A second “Wizard of Oz” project, set up at Warners proper, skews a little darker — it’s written by “A History of Violence” screenwriter Josh Olson and focuses on a granddaughter of Dorothy who returns to Oz to fight evil. “Clash of the Titans” producer Basil Iwanyk and his Thunder Road Pictures are behind that one. (“Spawn” creator Todd MacFarlane is potentially involved in a producerial capacity, to give you some idea of the tone.)

The emphasis is mine, but it adds yet another dimension: the Wizard of Oz might be remade by the folks who bought us Twilight! ARRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

DOES HOLLYWOOD HAVE NO SHAME!

The sad news of the death of 80’s teen idol Corey Haim earlier today has many who grew up in the era remembering some of his works.

We know no better way to remember Corey Haim then through a selection of trailers for his best known movies.

Corey Feldman remembers

Madonna and Gerard Butler had a dance-off at a post-Oscars party.

The ‘Material Girl’ singer helped host the bash at manager Guy Oseary’s Los Angeles home following the prestigious ceremony on Sunday night, March 7, and was clearly in a party mood so couldn’t resist when the handsome actor challenged her dancing skills.

A source said, “Madonna and Gerard were grinding on the dance floor before getting into a dance-off. It was hilarious.”

As well as Gerard, Madonna also showcased her dance moves with Gabourey Sidibe, who earlier missed out to Sandra Bullock in the Best Actress category.

A source said, “Madonna danced non-stop for four hours. She and Gabourey were dancing together at one point. They had a great time. This was the Oscar party to be at this year.”

Demi Moore co-hosted the party with Madonna, which was attended by a host of stars, including Demi’s husband Ashton Kutcher, P. Diddy, Renee Zellweger, Bradley Cooper and Taylor Lautner.

As well as some entertaining dance moves, the 300 guests were treated to a late-night Indian takeaway as well as enjoying a cocktail created by Demi and Madonna especially for the party.

Corey Feldman, one half of the two Coreys and frequent co-star of Corey Haim, blogged about the death of his friend and “brother” today.

The two 80s teen heartthrobs even co-starred in a reality show in 2007 on A&E, following the child stars as they struggled with their careers twenty years after their fame peaked. The show heavily focused on the contrast between Haim’s struggle with addiction and his more well-adjusted friend Feldman. In the post, Feldman says:

I was awakened at 8:30 this morning by my brother and sister knocking on my bedroom door. They informed me of the loss of my brother Corey Haim. My eyes weren’t even open all the way when the tears started streaming down my face. I am so sorry for Corey, his mother Judy, his family, my family, all of our fans, and of course my son who I will have to find a way to explain this to when he gets home from school. This is a tragic loss of a wonderful,beautiful,tormented soul, who will always be my brother,family, and best friend. We must all take this as a lesson in how we treat the people we share this world with while they are still here to make a difference. Please respect our families as we struggle and grieve through this difficult time. I hope the art Corey has left behind will be remembered as the passion of that for which he truly lived. ~ Corey

Haim’s death early this morning in Los Angeles isn’t the first big loss suffered by Feldman in the past year- the child star was notoriously close to pop star Michael Jackson at the height of Feldman’s career. Feldman blogged at length about the death of Jackson here.
