Madonna Break Up
It seems that Madonna will be needing a ‘Holiday’ come Christmas, with the queen of pop’s representative confirming that she and boyfriend of three years, Brahim Zaibat have split.
Interestingly, rather than being an amicable break-up, as per the diplomatic claims of most celebrity relationships, Madonna’s representative confirmed that the star herself instigated the split.
The cause of the break-up? As with many celebrity couples, the pair have cited their busy and conflicting schedules.
This is despite Brahim working as a back-up dancer on Madonna’s recent MDNA world tour. He currently features on French Dancing With the Stars.
However, there has been much speculation about the real reason for the break-up — Brahim has reportedly become very close to his Dancing With The Stars dance partner, Katrina Prachett, and Madonna has been spending an unusual amount of time with her ex, Sean Penn.
We can’t wait for the next chapter in the ever-eventful saga that is Madge’s life!
Ryan Gosling’s Nose Job
In news that will make everyone, everywhere, shed tears of disappointment, a Canadian beauty blogger has revealed that Ryan Gosling had a nose job.
Comparing photographs of the Hollywood hunk before he snared a place in every woman’s heart (aka, pre The Notebook) with more current pictures, the blogger, Michelle Villett found notable differences.
Of the work he potentially had done, the blogger says “it’s straighter, the tip has been removed and the nostrils have been refined – but we’re talking tiny, tiny.”
According to celebrity plastic surgeon, Dr. Yannis Alexandris, Ryan has indeed had work done, calling into doubt every ‘Hey Girl’ meme ever made.
“Although subtle, in my opinion, it’s clear from these images that there have been number of changes made to Ryan’s nose,” the doctor advised.
Are Ryan’s good looks all a lie? Would he be everybody’s celebrity crush had he not undergone surgery? Will ‘Hey Girl,’ ever be the same again?
Ryan isn’t one to respond to internet rumours, so we guess we’ll have to let the speculation continue…
Oprah Opens Up About Never Having Children
We’ve always wondered why, when she excels in every aspect of her life, Oprah has never had kids.
The media mogul has finally opened up about her decision not to procreate, stating that she would rather focus on her career than taking care of children.
“If I had kids, my kids would hate me,” Oprah said.
“They would have ended up on the equivalent of the Oprah show talking about me,” continuing that if she had children, they would have suffered in favour of her career.
Oprah also revealed why she chose to leave Oprah, the show that made her famous, after 25 years, saying that when her producers called her in and said “we could take the audience to space,” she knew it was time to go.
However, her next venture, the Oprah Winfrey Network, was her first experience of failure in many years.
“I had become so accustomed to succeeding that I no longer even remembered what it was like to fail,” she confided.
Things are on the up again for everyone’s favourite talk show host, as she’s tipped for an Academy Award nomination for her role in the film The Butler, and working towards a career on Broadway.
We’d love to see Oprah belt out a few show tunes!
