• Angelina Jolie has reportedly given film producers a list of demands to keep partner Brad Pitt happy while she makes her next film. The Jolie-Pitt family are expected to temporarily relocate to the Czech Republic while Angelina films Wanted and have asked to stay in a mansion with helipad - and helicopter lessons for Brad while they’re there. An inside source revealed the requests and added: “These two can have whatever they want — and they and the film company know it.”
• Hilary Swank has finally admitted she’s dating her long-term agent John Campisi. The couple have rumoured to be together for around six months but until they were snapped together recently, Hilary refused to confirm the identity of the man in her life. Now she’s admitted John is the one and said: “He is an extraordinary man. I am pretty optimistic about us.” Hilary split from husband Chad Lowe last year.
• Charlotte Church was involved in a minor car accident over the weekend. Charlotte and boyfriend Gavin Henson’s car was at the front of a three-car shunt. An onlooker told the Mirror: “Charlotte stayed sat in their car while Gavin sorted it all out. It must have been so scary for her because she is expecting. Any young mum-to-be would be worried. Gavin looked like he was really concerned about Charlotte.” No one was hurt in the incident but the onlooker added that Gavin “really started yelling” when passers-by started taking photos of the couple.

Heather Mills reportedly believes she’ll receive a £25million financial settlement from Paul McCartney, according to her friends.

A source close to Heather spoke out about the figure after Paul and Heather’s former bodyguard Sean Ghent told the Sunday Mirror he thought between £100million and £200million would be a “fair settlement”.

The source told the Daily Mail that Heather was “furious that people might think she is after this much money”.

“Two hundred million pounds is way off the mark and has never been Heather’s target.”

“The real figure she has in mind is most definitely £25million, no more, no less. Heather is convinced that she and Paul are close to a settlement and agreeing this sum.”

“It is just a matter of time before the paperwork is completed and she walks away a millionaire.”

The couple are expected to finalise the financial aspects of their divorce - and draw up an agreement over custody of their daughter Beatrice - over the next few months.

• Victoria Beckham might only have been in LA for flying visit over the weekend but she still managed to fit in three outfits - and some shopping. She arrived in LA on Saturday to sign the papers finalising the purchase of their new family home then hit designers shops, such as Marc Jacobs and Lorenzo, on Sunset Boulevard for a spot of shopping - before returning to LAX and hopping on a plane back to Madrid on Sunday. (Husband David Beckham didn’t join her to sign the deeds because he was in Bilbao in northern Spain for a Real Madrid match - and to show off his newly blonde locks again.)
• Britney Spears took a trip to the shops too to buy baby clothes - but perhaps she should have been looking for new clothes for herself instead: this outfit from Saturday is not a dress, it’s lingerie. Really bad cheap looking lingerie. Still she cover herself up a bit (with a lacy table cloth??) for a night out with rehab-boyfriend Howie Day that evening. The couple dined together at The Bridge, then toured the various celeb-favoured nightclubs of Los Angeles: Element, Les Deus, Parc and Teddy’s.
• Over in Australia, various stars came out for the MTV Australia Video Music Awards. Pink, Fergie and Nicole Richie amongst others were snapped on the red carpet with the latter lady looking pretty healthy and happy in a beyond maxi-dress.
• Sandra Bullock and Jesse James were spotted near their Orange County home over the weekend - presuming hoping this weekend would be less eventful (and dangerous) than the last one for them.

Boy George has reportedly been arrested and released on bail after a man accused George of assaulting and falsely imprisoning him.

Auden Carlsen has claimed he got chatting to the former Culture Club star online and was invited to George’s east London home in the early hours of Saturday morning to pose for photographs.

Auden claims George initially started taking photos as agreed but then: “George said he was popping out for milk at 5 am. I heard him come back and I walked into his bedroom wearing just my T-shirt.”

“I was jumped on by George and another man. George handcuffed me to a hook by the bed as they held me down.”

“I was convinced I was going to die.”

Auden claims George and the man then produced a box of whips and sex toys and told him “now you’ll get what you deserve” - but Auden managed to pull the hook from the wall and escape to a nearby newsagents, where he alerted the police.

A police spokesperson has confirmed that they are investigating an incident but as standard, refused to identify those involved, just saying that “a man in his forties has been arrested in connection with the allegation. He was taken to an east London police station but has subsequently been bailed to return on a date in July.”

According to other onlookers at Bar Med in Guildford, Amelle and the girl have a long-standing feud but on Saturday night, “Amelle just went crazy. She was screaming at the girl and kept kicking her. There were arms and legs flailing everywhere.”

Vodka and a beehive - they should sell them here.”
