Jessica Simpson looking for an 'artistic man'


The US singer-and-actress – who counts American footballer Tony Romo and womanising singer John Mayer among her ex boyfriends, and used to be married to singer Nick Lachey – said she wants her next husband to be fit into her 'emotional type'.

She said: 'My next husband will be an artistic man. It will show you the colours of my character, the person that I fall in love with next.

'I don't even have a type! I don’t have a physical type. I have an emotional type.'

Jessica – who was most recently romantically linked to Billy Corgan - also said she would never appear naked in any role, and is saving herself for her next love.

She added: 'I will never do nudity. I don't care how dark and intellectual the role could be, you know. I don't care if I could get an Oscar for it, I'm not going to do it.

'Those accolades mean nothing to me. I don't think people deserve to see what's under my clothing. That's only for my next husband ha ha ha!"

The 'Come On Over’ singer – who gave up country music in April 2009 after a widely criticised move from her pop roots to the genre in 2007 – also reflected on her upcoming 30th birthday, admitting her life has turned out differently to how she thought when she was young.

She told Allure magazine: "I never really thought, growing up, 'What am I gonna be like when I'm 30?’

'I just kind of thought I had it figured out; I'm going to be this great pop star, have my songs on the radio, be married, and have babies.

'But things can be taken away from you. A song can not be played on the radio. An album can not work."

Britney Spears has spent $700,000 renovating her home


The '3’ singer spent the huge amount on various projects on her lavish Californian property, including on decorating, new furniture and electronic equipment.

A source said: 'Britney remodelled her entire home. She loves spending money.'

According to the insider, as well as a reported $200,000 spent on artwork, Britney splashed out $150,000 on electronics, purchased a new $100,000 bathroom, paid $100,000 for Venetian plaster walls and bought $150,000 of new furniture.

Meanwhile, Britney’s lawyers have moved to make sure confidential information about the pop star and her children, Sean Preston, four, and three-year-old Jayden James, are legally sealed amid fears her private medical information could be leaked.

Lawyers Geraldine Wyle and Jeryll Cohen said in legal documentation: 'A Google search for Ms. Spears' name yields 54,300,000 hits.

'Photographs and personal information, particular information of a highly confidential nature (such as personal medical information of Ms. Spears and her children), can potentially reap thousands if not millions of dollars.

'The possibility of such enormous profits presents a substantial risk that Ms. Spears' most confidential medical and personal information will be disclosed."

Miley Cyrus nominated for four Kids Choice Awards


The 'Hannah Montana’ star has topped the list of nominees for the forthcoming ceremony – which takes place on March 27 – after receiving nods for Favourite Singer, Favourite TV Actress and Favourite Movie Actress, as well as Favourite Song for her track 'Party in the USA’.

In both music categories she faces competition from Lady Gaga – whose single 'Paparazzi’ made the Favourite Song list – and Taylor Swift, whose track 'You Belong with Me' was given a nomination.

Cheryl Cole


The Girls Aloud beauty - who has been left devastated by allegations her soccer star husband Ashley Cole cheated on her again - admits she enjoys having no financial worries but it isn't the driving force behind her decisions.

She said: "I'm the least money motivated person that you'd come across. I never had a thing growing up as a child. We were, you could say, poor, we didn't have any money. But it's never something that I have been driven by. It's obviously something that's nice and it's a bonus to have, and amazing that I can have nice things and I don't have to worry like other people, but it's not what drives me.

"I just absolutely love what I do and I love music and I'm passionate about my job. And that's it really, that's what keeps me going."

Despite speculation Simon Cowell is keen to have Cheryl join him on the judging panel when he launches 'The X Factor' in the US, the 26-year-old singer says she has no intention to move Stateside.

She told Britain's OK! magazine: "I have no plans to move.

"If the day comes when I break America I will give it 150 per cent. But until that happens I'm just going to focus on each day as it comes."

Avrile laving


Avril Lavigne is reportedly dating Brody Jenner.

The 'Sk8er Boi’ singer – who filed for divorce from rocker husband Deryck Whibley last October, a month after they separated – has been enjoying a low-key romance with the 26-year-old reality TV star for several weeks.

A source said: "They're hooking up but they're keeping it low-key."

Despite trying to keep their romance out of the public eye, the couple recently enjoyed a dinner at Los Angeles restaurant Koi before heading to nearby nightspot Voyeur, where they amazed onlookers with their flirty behaviour.

Another source told E! Online: "You can tell they're into each other and both like to have a good time. They're cute together."

Since splitting from Deryck – who she was married to for three years – Avril, 25, has been romantically linked with actor Wilmer Valderrama and oil heir Brandon Davis, but pals insisted she was just friends with both men.

Brody was most recently dating Playboy playmate Jayde Nicole, but they split in December.

After revealing she and Deryck were to divorce, Avril insisted the pair would remain friends.

She said: "Deryck and I have been together for six-and-a-half years. We have been friends since I was 17, started dating when I was 19, and married when I was 21. I am grateful for our time together, and I am grateful and blessed for our remaining friendship.

"I admire Deryck and have a great amount of respect for him. He is the most amazing person I know, and I love him with all my heart. Deryck and I are separating and moving forward on a positive note."
