Britney Spears' UK shame

Britney Spears hid her face as she left the UK yesterday (30.11.08), after fans blasted her "disastrous" performance on British television on Saturday (29.11.08).

The 26-year-old singer donned a trilby, sunglasses and a hooded duffle coat in a bid to remain invisible as she returned to America after causing outrage by appearing to mime during her rendition of hit track 'Womanizer' on TV talent show 'The X Factor'.

Angry fans branded the appearance - which marked her first performance on British TV in five years - "an absolute disaster". Britney also reportedly angered show chief Simon Cowell by refusing to watch the contestants perform her songs on the programme, and banned show judges - Simon, Dannii Minogue, Louis Walsh and Cheryl Cole - from coming into her room to meet her.

A source said: "When the judges went to meet her, her security wouldn't let anyone past. You have never seen so many security guards. Even around the judges' dressing rooms was sealed off by Britney's security people."

Britney then further infuriated her British fans when she appeared at the G-A-Y nightclub in London to celebrate her 27th birthday but refused to take to the stage after being presented with a cake.

However, Britney's spokesperson Shoshanna Stone insists the singer had never agreed to perform at the club, adding: "Contrary to reports, Britney was never booked to perform or even appear at G-A-Y. She was invited to the evening but was never asked to perform.

"Following her incredible performance on 'The X Factor', Britney took up the invite and relaxed among friends."

The singer is expected to celebrate her birthday and the release of her new album 'Circus' with a performance on US TV show 'Good Morning America' tomorrow (02.12.08).

Cameron Diaz dodges Biel

Cameron Diaz deliberately avoided Jessica Biel at the CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tribute.

The 'What Happens in Vegas' star rushed through the back entrance of Los Angeles' Kodak Theatre on Friday (28.11.08) to prevent running into Jessica, who is currently dating Cameron's ex-boyfriend, singer Justin Timberlake.

A source said: "It was a careful tango to make sure they weren't backstage at the same time."

Jessica - who was accompanied by her father Jonathan - presented one of the prizes at the ceremony, which recognises people who have shown incredible bravery and dedication in the face of adversity.


Cameron also handed over an award to Marie Da Silva, who was praised for funding a school in her native Malawi.

Other stars taking part in the concert and ceremony included Christina Aguilera, Salma Hayek, Forrest Whitaker, Meg Ryan, Terrence Howard, Lucy Liu and Kate Beckinsale.

Cameron famously blew up at the 'Easy Virtue' actress at the 2007 Golden Globe Awards after she spotted her flirting with the 'SexyBack' star soon after they had split.

The 36-year-old star is now dating British model Paul Sculfor and is reportedly planning to fly out to the UK this month to spend Christmas with his family.

Christina Aguilera's son locket

Christina Aguilera always wears a locket with a picture of her son.
The 27-year-old singer - who gave birth to Max in January - loves the Stephen Webster locket which husband Jordan Bratman had specially made for her first Mother's Day in May.

Speaking about the exclusive piece of jewellery, which features Max's name, a diamond sword and a blood drop design, she said: "I love the symbolism of the blood droplet. It's like Max pierced my heart."
Christina also revealed the only time she has never worn any jewellery is when she was in labour with Max.

When asked if it is ever inappropriate to don necklaces, earrings, rings or bracelets, Christina replied: "Not appropriate is not something I live by. Probably the only time I did not wear jewellery was when I gave birth to my son, and only then because I was so swollen."
