Katy Perry has been accused of exposing the genitals of the male model she worked with on her music video Teenage Dream.

Josh Kloss, who played her love interest in the 2010 music clip, alleged that the 34-year-old singer pulled down his trousers and exposed him to a group of people at a mutual friend’s birthday party.

He made the allegations about Katy on Instagram on Sunday, in what he said was the anniversary of him working on the music video.

Josh said: ‘This one time I brought a friend who was dying to meet her. It was [costume designer] Johnny Wujek’s birthday party at moonlight roller way. And when I saw her, we hugged and she was still my crush.

‘But as I turned to introduce my friend, she pulled my Adidas sweats and underwear out as far as she could to show a couple of her guy friends and the crowd around us, my penis.’

Metro.co.uk has contacted Katy’s reps for comment.

He described being completely humiliated by Katy’s alleged actions, writing: ‘Can you imagine how pathetic and embarrassed I felt?’

The alleged incident took place after the Teenage Dream music video was filmed, some time after Katy split with ex-husband Russell Brand in 2012.

Josh went on: ‘I just say this now because our culture is set on proving men of power are perverse. But females with power are just as disgusting.

‘So, happy anniversary to one of the most confusing, assaulting, and belittling jobs I’ve ever done. Yay. I was actually gonna play the song and sing it on ukele for the anniversary, but then as I was turning I thought, f**k this, I’m not helping her bs image another second.’

He said that when he first met Perry, she was ‘cool and kind’ and they sang a worship song together called Open The Eyes Of My Heart.

‘When other people were around she was cold as ice even called the act of kissing me “gross” to the entire set while filming,’ Kloss said, referring to their kissing scenes in Teenage Dream.

Kloss said he was going through problems with his family at the time, so he put up with it because he needed the money.

‘Now I was pretty embarrassed but kept giving my all, as my ex was busy cheating on me and my daughter was just a toddler, I knew I had to endure for her sake,’ he said.

‘After the first day of shooting, Katy invited me to a strip club in Santa Barbara. I declined and told her, “I have to go back to hotel and rest, because this job is all I have right now.”‘

Josh listed his reasons for why he didn’t make his allegations sooner (Picture: Instagram)

When asked why he waited so long to come forward, Kloss said he was traumatised by Perry’s alleged actions and wanted to wait until it wouldn’t seem like he was only making the claims for financial gain.

‘To admit that someone violated you in such a f**ked up way, and you didn’t call the cops at that moment was hard to swallow, and it took a lot of time,’ he said.

‘There have been a million times I could have brought it up, but those times would have benefited me financially.’

The model went on: ‘At this time there is absolutely no benefit for me, but benefit for many others, who can contemplate power, would they do what she did to me, or would they stay respectful of me and my body.

‘So you believing me is inconsequential to me, it’s more about letting people believe that even a guy like me has felt powerless and been violated, and still courageous to bring it up when it counts, not when it’s lucrative.’

He added: ‘I am very lucky, I’m blessed. But I’m not her boy. I’m not her boy. She made that very clear. I’m her prostitute. And that’s the point of this.’

Christina Milian has revealed she is expecting a baby boy with her boyfriend Matt Pokora and the gender reveal snaps are epic.

The AM To PM hitmaker, who announced she was pregnant last month, staged a pretty lit party to reveal the gender of her second child.

Think pink and blue balloons, cannons, lavish cakes, a pool… the whole shebang really.

Christina shared an adorable set of snaps of Matt setting off a cannon which released a trail of blue smoke.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B1Doa39n-RV/

Realising he was having a boy, Matt – and Christina’s daughter Violet, nine – jumped up and punched the air in triumph.

Our hearts!

Milian wrote alongside the shots: ‘Oh boy we’re above and beyond Cloud 9!! #grateful #itsaboy.’

Her A-list pals were all over the happy news, with Leigh-Anne Pinnock writing: ‘This is beautiful! Congrats girl.’

Kelis gushed, ‘Amazing! Congratulations babe!!!!!’ while Ashanti added, ‘Congratulations mama!!!!’

Singer Matt, who has been dating Christina since 2017, also shared the images on his account and wrote in his native French: ‘We are waiting for you, my son.’

Even Violet – who Christina shares with her producer ex-husband The Dream, posted an Instagram snap, saying: ‘I knew it!! Baby brother on the way.’

Christian announced her joyful baby news back in July, while sharing a snap of her and Matt posing with a sonogram photo.

The singer and actor captioned the pic: ‘New release 2020! What a blessing! Let’s do this babe @mattpokora’

She previously revealed plans to expand her brood, telling Hollywood Life: ‘I do have the desire to have more children in the future.

‘Probably just one more because I know the energy it takes to raise a child. I know that I just want to be able to experience each child, which is a gift. I definitely want to have another child n the future.’

Michelle Keegan has served us all a mighty dollop of holiday envy with her latest snap.

The Our Girl actress has successfully defeated time and is actually getting more good-looking, judging by her rockin’ bikini shot on Instagram.

The 32-year-old looked all toned and tanned as she posed against the luxurious villa she and husband Mark Wright are staying at in Ibiza.

‘Wanna belong here…’ Michelle wrote.

Yes – we do too, Keegs! Take us with you, for the love of God!

Michelle and Mark – who tied the knot in 2015 – have been absolutely loving life on their Spanish getaway as they canoodled on a yacht.

It’s alright for some…

The former Coronation Street actress was spotted cuddling up to her beau, while their pals joined them on board.

Their loved-up trip comes after Mark’s ex Lauren Goodger branded his and Michelle’s relationship ‘weird’, claiming the pair ‘don’t talk’.

The Towie original dated Mark on-and-off for over a decade. Mark popped the question in March 2011, just hours after Lauren had his name tattooed off her bikini line.

However, he called off the engagement in August that year and began dating Michelle soon after.

Speaking to Heat magazine about bumping into her ex at the gym, Lauren said: ‘They don’t talk. It’s really weird. I was like, “f***ing hell, we weren’t like that”.

‘It’s like they don’t know each other. I can’t go into that, though. I’m just so glad that ain’t me.’

Lauren added that she finds talking about Mark ‘boring’, saying: ‘It’s annoying, because people say I always talk about him, but I really don’t give a s***.’

Bebe Rexha has got absolutely zero time for sexist men in the music industry.

The Meant To Be singer revealed a male music executive recently said she was getting ‘too old’ and called her image ‘confusing’.

The 29-year-old clapped back in the best way possible – by sharing a snap of herself posing in lingerie on Instagram and saying she ‘makes her own rules’.

Bebe wrote: ‘I recently had a MALE music executive tell me that I was getting too old and that my brand was “confusing.”

‘Because… I’m a songwriter and I post sexy pics on my Instagram and that’s not what female songwriters are suppose to do, especially for my age. I’m 29.’

The singer went on to argue that she’s sick of older women being called ‘hags’, adding that she celebrates her age because she’s now ‘wiser, stronger, and a much better lover’.

‘I’m fed up with being put in a box. I make my own rules. I’m tired of women getting labeled as “hags” when they get old and guys get labeled as sexy with age,’ she wrote.

The Call You Mine singer, who recently hit back at fat-shaming trolls, went on: ‘Anyways, I’m turning 30 on August 30 and you know what, I’m not running away from it.

‘I’m not gonna lie about my age or sing songs that I feel will sell better because they sound “younger.”

‘I’m gonna celebrate my age because you know what, I’m wiser, I’m stronger and TRUST ME I’m a much better lover than I was 10 years ago.’

Oh, Amen to that.

Rexha wrote in follow-up tweets that ‘there’s no age that you can’t be sexy,’ before adding: ‘I’m not scared to speak out. Especially if it’s my truth.’

Her inspiring post sparked a flood of support from other singers, including fellow 29-year-old Taylor Swift.

Swifty wrote: ‘DRAG THEM. 29 YEAR OLDS UNITE.’

Rita Ora added: ‘My sexy songwriting queen. You are beautiful, getting sexier with age and your talent SINGS for itself. Keep making those rules.’

Model Leomie Anderson penned: ‘Thank you for not allowing these d***heads to make you shrink yourself to fit into their idea of what a woman in the music industry should be. You’re bad b**** bebe and no I didn’t stutter.’

Taylor Swift has paid off a a struggling fan’s £4,000 tuition debt and now we want her to be President.

The fan, known as Ayesha, posted on Tumblr that her parents earn minimum wage and she wasn’t going to be able to afford her college tuition for next semester.

Her mother suffers from kidney disease and her family were trying to take out a loan to cover her rent and school fees.

Well it turns out Swifty heard all about her troubles because she transferred 6,386.47 Canadian dollars (£3,900) to Ayesha’s bank account.

Ayesha couldn’t believe the news and tbh. we don’t blame her – we would’ve thought it was all an elaborate hoax.

A fan called Ayesha revealed the email she received after the donation (Picture: Instagram)

She shared a screenshot of the email she received that showed proof of the miraculous transaction.

T-Swift, who was recently targeted by Kid Rock, left a message with her payment: ‘Ayesha get your learn on girl. Love you!’

Ayesha wrote on Instagram: ‘I posted about struggling with paying for tuition. Two hours later, I get this in my email.

‘I have no words and I can’t stop crying. I don’t have words I don’t have words I don’t have words I can’t stop crying.’

She added on Tumblr that Taylor ‘took that stress’ away from her family thanks to her donation, adding that she didn’t know how she’d ever repay the singer’s ‘love and kindness’.

‘My mother suffers with chronic kidney disease stage 3 and that’s always something we’re worried about. Stress aggravates her condition and not having funds is stressful,’ she wrote.

‘Both of my parents work minimum wage jobs. They were going to try to get loans. Taylor Swift took that stress from my parents, my world, and I have never seen them cry/laugh the way they are right now.

‘I truly do not have words and I will never, ever be able to repay her for the love and kindness she has shown me right now.’

The ME! singer, who recently scooped a Teen Choice Icon Award, has a reputation for being generous with her fans.

Back in 2015, Tay Tay sent almost $2,000 (£1,600) to a follower to cover her student loan.

Wow. And here we are, giving our mates £20 Topshop vouchers for their birthday.

The Lion King remake has just been named the highest-grossing animated movie ever, so quick, warm up your vocal chords and get ready to break into your best rendition of Circle Of Life.

The live-action reboot, starring a bunch of nobodies called Beyonce, Donald Glover and Seth Rogen, has earned $1.33 billion (£1.1 billion) as of this weekend.

On three? ‘It’s the ciiiiiiiiircle of liiiiiiiife…’

The movie – which was released on July 19 – has knocked that other beloved animation Frozen off the top spot, which raked in a measly $1.27 billion £1.05 billion) back in 2013.

Although, the sequel Frozen 2 could win back its title when it’s released in November so stay tuned.

The movie has earned $1.33 billion (£1.1 billion) as of this weekend (Picture: Instagram)

Anyway, get this – the latest figures mean that The Lion King is now the number 12 highest-grossing movie of all time, according to Box Office Mojo.

The film could even inch into the top ten if it out-earns Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2 and Black Panther.

They’re currently narrowly ahead at $1.341 billion (£1.111 billion) and $1.346 billion (£1.115 billion) respectively.

God, the tension is palpable.

While the Lion King reboot might have been a hit with fans (understatement), the original animation’s creators aren’t feeling the love.

‘If you polled the crew of the original Lion King, most of them would say, “Why? Did you really have to do that?” It kind of hurts,’ said David Stephan, one of the animators on the 1994 film.

‘It’s sort of sad that the stockholder is now in the room deciding what movies get made,’ Stephan added to HuffPo.

‘Disney’s now taken the cover off, and it’s now in your face: “Yeah, we just want to make money.” That’s disappointing as an artist, from a studio that was founded on originality and art.’

There’s one star the backlash isn’t affecting and that’s Beyonce.

The megastar, who voices Nala in the remake is apparently in talks with Disney to make another film after the reboot’s success.

Liam Hemsworth has broken his social media silence following his split from Miley Cyrus.

The Australian actor, 29, and Wrecking Ball singer, 26, called it quits at the weekend after seven months of marriage and a decade of dating.

Liam has now said he wishes Miley ‘nothing but health and happiness’, while sharing a snap of a beach sunset on Instagram on Tuesday.

‘Hi all. Just a quick note to say that Miley and I have recently separated and I wish her nothing but health and happiness going forward,’ he wrote.

The actor, who has apparently extended his stay Down Under amid the split, added: ‘Peace and Love.’

It comes after Miley’s rep confirmed the split to People, stating: ‘Liam and Miley have agreed to separate at this time.

‘Ever-evolving, changing as partners and individuals, they have decided this is what’s best while they both focus on themselves and careers.’

Last week, Miley was seen kissing Kaitlynn Carter in Italy’s Lake Como not long after she too announced the end of her marriage to Brody Jenner (who’s been getting sassy on the ‘gram since).

Miley has also broken her silence since the split, sharing snaps of her posing in an Italian ski resort and saying that life is a ‘climb’.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B1CQnO0JWoi/

The popstar wrote: ‘Don’t fight evolution, because you will never win. Like the mountain I am standing on top of, which was once under water, connected with Africa, change is inevitable.

‘The Dolomites were not created over night, it was over millions of years that this magnificent beauty was formed.

‘My dad always told me “Nature never hurries but it is always on time”…. it fills my heart with peace and hope KNOWING that is true.’

She concluded: ‘Life’s a climb… but the view is great.’

Liam and Miley met in 2009 on the set of Nicholas Sparks’ The Last Song before Aussie actor Liam proposed in 2012.

They broke up a year later before reuniting in 2015 and married at their Tennessee home last year.

Nicki Minaj has confirmed that she will marry her beau Kenneth Petty in less than 80 days.

The pair are thought to have met when they were teenagers in Queens, New York, and reunited in December 2018, but now the Anaconda rapper has revealed that the happy couple is hoping to wed within the next two months.

Speaking on Queen Radio, she revealed that the pair had filed for a marriage license earlier in the year but that after Nicki went traveling the 90 day limit on the license had expired.

But Nicki and Kenneth applied for a second license and they’re not so keen on letting this one slip through their fingers.

The two applied for the second license a week ago and so Nicki shared with fans that after receiving the file ‘from that time, you have 90 days to get married’.

‘That was about a week ago, so now I have about 80 days,’ she added.

It sounds like the wedding will be a small legal ceremony before the singer and her boyfriend celebrate with a much bigger wedding later.

‘I have to work on my album and I have a lot to focus on that I don’t want to do the big wedding now. We’ll do the big wedding later,’ she revealed.

‘I’ll be married before my album comes out, but will have my wedding after the album comes out.

‘Before the 90 days is over, yes, I will be married.’

Nicki has also had fans speculating that she’s expecting her first child after she rapped about being a ‘mommy’ and ‘walking down the aisle’ in her verse for Chance’s track Zanies And Fools.

She raps: ‘I met my husband when I was 17 out in Queens / If you love it, let it go, now I know what that means.

‘He the Clyde to my Bonnie / ’bout to walk down the aisle and be a mommy. Oh, I remember when I cried like, “Why me?” / Now I wouldn’t exchange my life for Armani.’

Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds at war again over Wolverine and this time it’s bloody

Ryan Reynolds continues to troll Hugh Jackman
These two really need to get along (Pictures: REX)

Seems the feud between Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds has well and truly been reignited.

The Wolverine actor and Deadpool star have been at war for years (in a terribly sarcastic and hilarious way, may we add) over Ryan’s insistence Hugh return to his Logan ways so the two Marvel comics characters can star in a film together.

It’s a simple ask that’s gone to the extremes with a fair amount of brilliant trolling all for our entertainment.

The two seemingly put aside their differences however when Hugh suffered a rather minor stage injury recently all bets were off.

Playing the superhero on his one-man tour The Man. The Music. The Show he risked life and limb and came out with two very, teeny small scratches on his knuckle. Honestly, it’s just a flesh wound.

Times are tough.

Sharing the horrendous injury to Instagram (warning, gory images ahead), Hugh wrote: ‘The first time I’ve played #wolverine … and, actually bled. Clearly, it’s @vancityreynolds [Ryan Reyn

https://www.instagram.com/p/B1AZ6slH0NX/

Apparently, the bit Hugh performs as the character he references Ryan Reynolds, so we can see where he may be drawing that conclusion.

He accompanied the post with the caption: ‘Seriously?’

Ryan was right there in the comments section to share his worldly advice as the merc with the mouth actor wrote: ‘I just don’t think you’ve been practicing enough.’

The two have been the ultimate fighters (like, Jake Gyllenhaal is even in on this), but back in February, they appeared to put it all behind them as they called a truce.

We thought it would all be over and peace would be restored, with Ryan reaching out to The Greatest Showman with an olive branch of sorts.

Taking to Twitter, he wrote: ‘As a gesture of goodwill, I’m gonna make a beautiful ad for his company, Laughing Man Coffee. Can’t wait!’

In the aptly-titled video, ‘Truce’, the two made an ad for one another’s company – Ryan’s being Aviator Gin, and Hugh’s Laughing Man Coffee.

Of course, that didn’t go to plan at all and the truce was definitely not upheld when Hugh trolled Ryan big time.

Ah, when will it end with these two?

Now Deadpool can join the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige really holds the power to end this madness.

Come on, Kev. Do the right thing.

Pink can’t believe her eyes as husband Carey Hart pens sweet love letter and we’re crying

Pink simply couldn’t believe her eyes this week when husband Carey Hart put his Carey Hart on his sleeve and wrote a tribute to his wife.

Hand-written and all.

The singer is finishing up her European tour and it seemed the husbo was keen to get her and the kids home as he sent the superstar a bunch of blooms on Monday night.

Accompanying the delightful bouquet was a scrawled note that really brings a tear to the most cynical of eyes out there.

Even Pink could hardly fathom what she was seeing, hinting this sort of gesture of love doesn’t come all that often in the Carey household.

The So What singer shared a backstage photo (with a little hand…we guess it’s one of their kids’…mingling in there) of the flowers wanting to document it for us all.

‘Thank you babe…. I told the audience about this last night and we all decided that Hell has officially frozen over,’ Pink wrote.

She added a bunch of hashtags for effect, including #handwritten #whoareyouandwhatdidyoudowithmyhusband #sweetheart #grateful#wecantwaittoseeyou#bonvoyageeurope.

Carey’s note could be seen and it seemed Pink was right on the money with the sweetheart hashtag – that thing is adorable!

‘Congrats baby! All I can say is ‘wow,’ I’m so proud of the person you are, you’ve pulled off the impossible,’ the love letter read.

‘Record-setting tour, chart-topping album, amazing mother, and loving wife.’

He continued: ‘I’m so fortunate to be shotgun with you through the whole experience.

‘I love you so much, and can’t wait to celebrate life with you after the tour.’

Ah gahd, don’t mind us, just crying over here at how ruddy adorable this whole thing was.

They’ve really come a long way when Pink lost her husband and didn’t know where he went (and then she drank her money and didn’t pay his rent, or so the story goes).

It seems the singer is keen to get home and offload the kids to their dad for just a second of quiet time so she can meditate after she shared a glimpse into what life is like trying to find a moment to oneself on the road.

Pink, 39, posted a snap of her with her kids on Instagram captioned ‘Family Portrait #toofunnynottoshare #mylife #worthit #familyband’.

The photo sees pink attempting to do some nice relaxing yoga, while her daughter Willow Hart and son Jameson Hart join her in the room.

Any mother will be able to relate to the scene, however, as on closer inspection, Willow is eating some kind of snack on the mat while Jameson looks like he’s about to kick off, with an absolute power stance and his mouth open ready to yell.

Oh, we should add Pink is wearing a t-shirt that read: ‘I’m so tired’, while Jameson has donned one that rebutted: ‘I’m not tired.’

We’re picking up what you’re putting down, girl.

Gemma Collins has just proved she’s been the ultimate diva since day one, thanks to her latest throwback snaps.

The GC posted photos of herself as a teenager posing in a swimsuit on Instagram and we must say, we were getting hints of the meme queen she would eventually become even then.

The 38-year-old looked cool and carefree on a boat as she threw out some poses that we want to replicate ourselves for the ‘gram.

She revealed in the lengthy caption that she was just a ‘happy teenager’ back then and didn’t face any of the social media ‘panic’ the younger generation deal with now.

‘Spending the evening looking at old pics. I never grew up body conscious it wasn’t a thing when I was younger I was just young free and me,’ Gemma wrote.

‘Yeah I look good but in an innocent way. There was no panic ….this pic was NOT taken to fit in with a wall to make it Instagram worthy.’

The Towie star, who recently refused to open her own door, went on to urge young people not to be fooled by the facade of social media.

‘Instagram is way too exposed now for young members who are on here. They do have pressure and it’s just so nice to look back on this picture and not have had any of that pressure growing up,’ she said.

‘I was just a happy teenager with no body hang ups or pressure. I think it’s so important for our younger generation to be body confident and free.

‘I just want to say to the younger ones on insta be YOU and don’t worry about what you see on insta be young be happy and free.’

Pop-rock band The Vamps have spoken about being caught in the Hong Kong protests and admitted it has been an ‘eerie’ experience.

Hundreds of flights out of Hong Kong were cancelled on Monday after mass protests, and James McVey and Brad Simpson spoke of their confusion as they were flying into the area.

‘We were coming into Hong Kong and were told we may not be able to land because of the protests,’ said James, ‘but we didn’t hear anything more and now we’re still there’.

The band however shared their support for the protestors, revealing that they are ‘pro-democracy and protests’ and added that they were ‘fine to sleep on the floor for people’s rights to be listened to’.

James and Brad added that the atmosphere in the airport is good and that they haven’t heard too much about what may be happening outside including the Chinese government calling protestors ‘terrorists’.

Demonstrators had flooded into the airport’s terminals but all protests have so far remained peaceful.

The band are currently on a tour of Asia, and told Good Morning Britain that arriving into the airport ‘last night was bizarre’.

‘It was a ghost town on this side of the wall. It was just us and our crew sleeping on their side of the terminal. It was quite eerie walking around at 2am not knowing where everyone was,’ said James.

‘It’s been a funny old experience, but our big concern is we’ve had to push back our show,’ added James.

‘We were on our way to Indonesia and that is always a big concern for people who have bought tickets so we’ve just been conscious of getting out to Indonesia as quickly as possible to see those guys.’

More than 14,000 people are believed to have joined a city-wide strike on Monday, with simultaneous strikes are also planned for seven of Hong Kong’s 18 districts.

Hundreds of activists blocked traffic and disrupted public transport by holding train doors open on the city’s Mass Transit Railway while nearly 200 flights out of Hong Kong were cancelled as airport staff walked out of work to join the strike.

The region’s protests are now in their ninth successive week, originally sparked by a proposed bill that would have allowed extradition from Hong Kong to China.

Although the plans for the bill have been suspended, the protests now feature wider calls for democratic reform of the legislative system in Hong Kong, which pro-democracy protesters claim is unduly influenced by authorities in Beijing.

Hong Kong police confirmed on Monday that 160 rubber bullets, 150 sponge bullets and more than 1000 canisters of tear gas have been used against protesters in the past nine weeks.

Can we please appreciate Avengers star Brie Larson’s singing as she covers Ariana Grande

Captain Marvel is the strongest Avenger as Brie Larson showed off her singing chops covering Ariana Grande overnight.

We were today years old when we discovered Brie does a cracking Ariana Grande song cover and who knew she could sing…like this?

The actress took to social media to share with us her little jam sesh and turns out Brie not only has the chops to rival a lot of singers out there, but she also is an Ari fan to rival all others.

Be still our beating hearts.

Brie covered Ari’s bop God Is A Woman on Monday night, just her and a fresh guitar, writing alongside the video on Instagram: ‘*~*ariana forever*~* (big big thank you to the legend @nancywilson for sending me her custom @gibsonguitar – I will never get over it.’

She performed just a snippet for our listening pleasure, sharing a delightful giggle at the end that made us want to watch the clip over and over again.

And we did.

No wonder everyone, including Brie’s famous pals, were all up in those comments section with applause.

Reese Witherspoon wrote: ‘Amen sister,’ while Ruby Rose threw out a bunch of love heart emojis to show her appreciation.

God Is A Woman wasn’t the only Ariana tune Brie was picking up last night, as she plucked the notes to Needy and sweetly sang the verse in her Instagram Stories.

Did she get an Ariana Grande songbook along with that fancy Gibson, we ask?

It’s not the first time Brie has made her love of Ari known, as she covered the singer’s track 7 Rings alongside Samuel L Jackson when they jumped into James Corden’s Carpool Karaoke recently.

And it was awesome. Go revisit that after you finish reading here for some Tuesday morning pick-me-up.

She’s evidently feeling the love all around in song and life after she was snapped locking lips with a new man last week.

Not caring who might have seen, the Marvel star had a massive PDA session in a supermarket with Elijah Allan-Blitz as the two seemingly confirmed their relationship.

Shunning a cosy Instagram to debut their relationship, Brie and Elijah opted for a slightly more subtle way of making things official – getting snapped kissing in the produce aisle and unable to tear their hands away from each other in public.

That’s something to sing about we suppose. Mind you, we do need to remind you that God most definitely is a woman.

Celebs Go Dating’s Jack Fincham was not best pleased after hearing that his date suggested he wasn’t yet over his ex-girlfriend Dani Dyer.

The 28-year-old series four Love Island winner, who pied a potential love interest by setting her up with a bartender in scenes that aired last week, was broken the awkward news as experts Paul Carrick Brunson and Anna Williamson gave him feedback.

‘So we asked Khloe, “Do you think you were a good match with Jack?” And she said, “Yes we are a good match but things would be better if circumstances were different as I think he is too newly single”.’

‘I don’t even think about my other relationship,’ Jack replied. ‘It’s not a thing.’

When asked if he ever talked about Dani on the date, he quipped: ‘Never. That’s a basic rule, I’m not silly.’

Anna then told him: ‘You have just come out of a really high-profile relationship whether you like it or not. It’s really for you to rewrite the next chapter, “Am I going to be Jack from Love Island who went out with Dani Dyer, or am I going to be Jack?”‘

Jack admitted: ‘I’m going to be honest, I actually find it quite hard to be dumped in front of someone and date them. I actually am struggling with it.’

The reality star called it a day with ex-girlfriend Dani back in April of this year, after previously breaking up in December 2018 before reconciling.

Last week, Jack told the Celebs Go Dating experts that he ‘rushed’ his relationship with Dani after the pair moved in together straight away.

‘We just sort of clicked personality wise,’ he recalled. ‘We spent everyday together for two months, that’s intense.’

Jack continued: ‘When we lived together, [it was like] “Alright, why have you done that?”

‘We rushed it, moved in together straight away. If we were on Love Island forever, it would have been alright.’

Celebs Go Dating airs tonight at 9pm on E4.

Amanda Holden is no stranger to controversy surrounding her wardrobe – especially from Britain’s Got Talent fans – but she really doesn’t care, admitting that she never thinks about her age when getting dressed.

The 48-year-old has said that she believes the live shows of the ITV reality show are ‘the perfect opportunity to take risks’.

‘I dress to feel confident. I try not to think about age anymore when I’m dressing,’ Amanda said.

‘My children don’t bat an eyelid at what I wear and love borrowing my clothes.’

In 2017, Britain’s Got Talent saw a record number of complaints to watchdog Ofcom, with many complaining over a £11,250 Julien Macdonald lace dress which Amanda wore on the live show.

The dress received more complaints than Russell Brand’s bad language and sexual references during Comic Relief.

In 2018 the judge wore a stunning bodysuit covered by a glittering see-through skirt – but calls for her ‘to put her boobs away’ rang through on social media.

‘Of course, I have fun on Britain’s Got Talent – it’s the perfect opportunity to take risks,’ Amanda has now told Daily Mail.

‘Times have changed and I don’t feel anyone should feel pressure to dress for your age. It’s all about body positivity and feeling good.’

Earlier in 2019, Amanda spoke of how controversial her dresses have become, admitting: ‘My t**s seem to become the show’s biggest talking point every year.

‘We’ve had plenty of complaints apparently, but none from home, let me tell you.’

Miley Cyrus ‘messing with Liam Hemsworth’ by kissing Kaitlynn Carter

Brody Jenner’s mate and The Hills co-star Brandon Thomas Lee believes Miley Cyrus is ‘messing’ with Liam Hemsworth by kissing Kaitlynn Carter in the wake of her split.

The singer was seen locking lips with Brody’s recently-ex-wife Kaitlynn as the two holidayed in Italy last week.

Just a day after photos emerged, Miley’s reps confirmed she too had ended her marriage alongside Liam after nearly a year. And hearts broke around the world.

The two had been dating for 10 years after meeting on the 2009 set of The Last Song and it felt like a wrecking ball to the heart, we have to say.

But while we’re left wondering what went wrong as we pick up the pieces of our shattered expectations on Hollywood marriages yet again (sorry, too much?) Brandon has voiced his feelings about it all after he was dragged in alongside Brody.

Seems he’s just not buying whatever is going on between Miley and Kaitlynn (despite claims saying they’re ‘just having fun’).

‘I was just like, “This is getting out of hand”,’  the 23-year-old son of Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee said on E! News show Daily Pop yesterday.

‘This whole thing is just so, like—I don’t know. I didn’t even want to get involved with it. It just seems so fake to me.’

He added: ‘It’s just like, why?

Brandon Thomas Lee
Brandon shared his thoughts on the thing (Picture :Getty Images for amfAR )

‘They’re just obviously messing with their two ex-husbands. And they’re all friends. So, it’s like, they were all friends. So, why?

‘It just seems so ridiculous to me.’

Brandon has been in the thick of the ‘controversy’ after he waded into the middle of it alongside Brody when they started commenting on Instagram posts left right and centre.

Brody – who confirmed his split with Kaitlynn just moments before Miley and Liam – posted earlier in the week a shot of himself in Malibu with the caption: ‘Don’t let yesterday take up too much of today.’

His mate replied by suggesting they ‘round this scandal out and post a pic of us making out.’

After that, Brody replied: ‘Watch out! Pics of Liam and I holding hands on the beach coming soon.’

Of course Miley was alerted to all of this, as she clapped back: ‘@brodyjenner go take a nap in your truck and cool off #HotGirlSummer.’

Asked whether ‘something went down’ between Miley and Kaitlynn before, Brandon said: ‘I don’t know. They’re all so crazy. I would almost probably assume that.

‘I have no interest in this situation at all. Like, zero percent.

‘I was just curious as of why this blew up so much, and I forgot Miley has so many fans.’

Idol School star Som Hye In has come out as bisexual.

The 24-year-old, also known as Somhein, revealed to fans over the weekend that she had a girlfriend, by sharing a picture of herself kissing another woman on the cheeck with the caption: ‘chu chu My girlfriend.’

And days later, the singer shared another post, showing herself holding hands with her mystery partner, with the caption: ‘My lovely girl.’

Following reports that she was gay, Som Hye In clarified things on Instagram after someone asked: ‘R u really lesbian? I am so shocked rlly [sic].’

https://www.instagram.com/p/B0_zvWFHKPQ/

The Mini Radio singer replied: ‘I’m bisexual. And I have girlfriend now.’

And shutting down any trolling of her girlfriend, Som Hye In said she would take legal action if ‘speculative content’ continued.

The star wrote: ‘I am in a loving [relationship] and since it’s not wrong, I confidently did come out, but I didn’t do it so that I could stand out. What kind of person lightly makes the decision to come out like that?

‘People think differently and can hate same-sex relationships. Yes, you can hate it. Those are individual values and I’m not trying to force [anyone] to understand or like homosexuality. I am also not begging for [anyone] to like or notice me.

‘I didn’t think that I would receive this much attention. I just didn’t want to hide the fact that I am dating and in love just like everyone else.

‘I don’t want my people to get hurt, and it’s my duty to protect them. I will also take legal measures to protect my people. Please stop.’

Som Hye In starred on the 2017 Mnet series Idol School, but dropped out due to health reasons.

She later explained that she had been battling an eating disorder.

The singer released her debut single Mini Radio in June.

The Inbetweeners’ Blake Harrison forced to work second job as series ‘didn’t pay well’

The Inbetweeners star Blake Harrison has revealed he was forced to pick up a second job while filming the first two series because the cast ‘weren’t paid well.’

The 34-year-old actor, who played Neil Sutherland in the award-winning sitcom, admitted that Channel 4 bosses weren’t hopeful that the comedy would be a roaring success when the wheels were first put into motion back in 2008.

‘When it was first delivered a Channel 4 exec said, “This is like the worst episode ever of Grange Hill.”

‘There weren’t high hopes,’ Blake said.

He continued to Radio Times: ‘In between the first and second series, I worked in the Scare Chamber at Madame Tussauds because we weren’t paid well.’

First airing 11 years ago, The Inbetweeners went on to air three series followed by The Inbetweeners Movie in 2011, The Inbetweeners 2 in 2014 and the divisive reunion episode on New Years Day 2019.

The cast, made up of Blake, Joe Thomas, James Buckley and Simon Bird, have ruled out returning to the small-screen for another series.

‘I don’t know how that would work,’ Simon told Screen Daily yesterday. ‘I don’t think it would work with the characters grown up, which we now all are.

‘No one is going to buy us as teenagers anymore. And I think the idea of the four of us back together as 30-somethings is going to be a bit more depressing for everyone.’

Meanwhile, James has revealed he’s ‘really, really struggling’ with fame, to the point where he’s considering ‘never leaving the house again.

The star, who played compulsive liar Jay Cartwright in the E4 show, admitted that being in the spotlight has left him feeling ‘anxious’ and ‘uncomfortable’, particularly after the backlash he experienced during the reunion.

‘I think I’m getting closer and closer to never leaving my house again. I’m struggling with it and I’m not even that famous,’ he said on the Complete Load of Podcast.

‘I’m not anywhere near Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt or someone like that and I really, really struggle with it. It’s something I find really, really difficult,’ he added.

The Inbetweeners is available to stream on Channel 4OD.

Vikings star Katheryn Winnick sure transferred her warrior skills from the History Channel hit when it came to her latest project, Wu Assassins.

The 41-year-old, who plays undercover police inspector Christine Gavin, has given fans an insight into that ‘epic’ fight scene in episode four.

You know the one, where Uncle Six (Byron Mann) and Kai (Iko Uwais) go head to head in an explosive battle, only for C.G to get caught up in the drama.

Well it turns out it was just as fast paced in real life, as the actress explained: ‘Even though it looks organic, it’s very well constructed.

‘They’re playing back the sequence that Iko was just shooting, I thought it was on fast forward.’

In a behind the scenes clip, shared by Netflix, the star talks about the show and her first take on the story arc.

Smiling at the camera, she said: ‘When I read the script I thought it would be really epic,’ and it sure is.

Katheryn’s background in Taekwondo, which she started at the age of 16, is perfect the for martial arts hit – not to mention all the shield-maiden training she had during her time on Vikings.

The star previously opened up about her history with the sport, and how she runs the WIN KAI Martial Arts Schools in Toronto with her brother Adam.

Katheryn also spread her knowledge of self-defense by giving crash courses to her female buddies of the historical saga.

The Lagertha star told Entertainment Tonight: ‘I have a strong need to teach women self-defense.

‘I want to give women all the tools they need, based on knowledge, to get out of situations.’

She added: ‘I think a lot of girls and women around the world can relate to being in a situation where their voices are not as strong.

‘But hopefully they will have the courage and the confidence to be able to get out of the situation, and become even stronger, just as Lagertha did.’

Wu Assassins is available to stream on Netflix, while Vikings season six will return to the History Channel and Amazon Prime in Autumn.
