All I Know Is That There Were Rumours...

That Russell Brand is in talks to play Jack Sparrow's brother in the fourth Pirates of The Caribbean film... A source said: "There couldn't be a role more perfectly suited. There’s a lot of Jack Sparrow in his mannerisms and behaviour. Depp's accent isn't a million miles away from Russell's either. Russell joining the Sparrows alongside Johnny and Keith Richards as their dad will complete the ultimate on-screen pirate family"... That Francesca Amber Sawyer, AKA someone who Russell Brand enjoyed threesomes with and who was in his company when he got the call re Manuelgate, said: "The first thing I heard him say to the caller was, 'But I love Manuel, I love him. I love Fawlty Towers'. As the call went on he got more agitated and when he finally got off he was in a fury... As soon as he got off the phone he was like a different man. He immediately wanted me to have a another threesome with a girl he had lined up. When I told him I hadn't visited him to have sex, he shouted, 'You are in Russell Brand's house. I asked you here for sex'. I was very upset. It was sinister. I felt cheap and couldn't believe he was being so sleazy towards me when he had been so kind before. He yelled, 'I'm supposed to go to Jonathan Ross's house but I am here with you!'"... That Jonathan Ross plans to have Andrew Sachs on his first Friday Night show when his suspension ends in January.... That Sachs said: "I really don't know if I would go on the show. I have not been asked and I would have to discuss it with Jonathan Ross before I went on. He did write me a lovely letter of apology and going on the show is not something I would rule out. I've got an open mind about things like that"... That, of Nicole Scherzinger's support of Lewis Hamilton's historic F1 win, a source said: "Lewis was overwhelmed with the support Nicole has shown him.

Robert had placed the pipe on a plate on the arm of the chair, but it overbalanced and plopped into his lap, scattering lit tobacco all over his pants"... That Halle Berry said: "Kate Winslet is always naked, sitting on a toilet, running buck-naked. She's free. I want to be the kind of actress who can really be comfortable with my body like that"... That Kate Winslet said: "Once a fat kid, always a fat kid. Because you always think that you just look a little bit wrong or a little bit different from everyone else. And I still sort of have that. I often look at women who wear great jeans and high heels and nice little T-shirts wandering around the city and I think, I should make more of an effort. I should look like that"... That Heidi Klum has "upset leading Hindus in the US" by dressing up as Goddess Kali for Halloween... That the president of the Universal Society of Hinduism said: "Goddess Kali is highly revered in Hinduism and she is meant to be worshipped in temples and not to be used in clubs for publicity stunts or thrown around loosely for dramatic effects"... That the scythe, decapitated head, and the skirt of disembodied arms is the usual apparel for the goddess in question... That Miley Cyrus' current boyfriend, underwear model Justin Gaston, dressed up as Cyrus' ex boyfriend, Nick Jonas, for Halloween... That, of Sarah Palin, Paris Hilton said: "I think she's hot and I think it's great that a woman is running for office. I don't think she's stupid - she wouldn't be where she is today if she was stupid. I think she's smart, and it's just because she's a woman people are saying she's not"...
