Katy Perry wedding date revealed

Katy Perry and Russell Brand are planning to marry in India next weekend.

The couple are set to wed next Saturday (23.10.10) in a traditional Indian ceremony at the luxury Taj Rambagh Palace hotel in Jaipur- where they got engaged on New Year's Eve (31.12.09) last year-in front of 85 guests.

It is believed the pair - who have been dating since September 2009 - will take the entire wedding party for a tiger safari during a three-day stay at Rajasthan wilderness camp the Aman-i-Khas, before the ceremony.

Russell, 35, recently claimed the ceremony will be low-key, despite reports of a six-day bash and said the couple don't want a typical celebrity wedding.

He explained: "We just love each other and we want to get married in front of our friends and family and keep it very normal. It ain't about selling the pictures, it ain't about doing no pre-nup, it's just a normal thing.

"I'm trying to preserve it, to keep it a beautiful thing. I think people get the wrong idea on how we want the wedding to play out. Love between two people is the most spectacular yet ordinary thing in the world."

Despite the British comedian's claims that he and Katy, 25 are a low-key couple, he did joke that they could make a sex tape together.

When asked if they would ever star in a film together, Russell replied: "We'll do a sex tape! Give them what they want!"

Malaysia Islamists object to Adam Lambert concert

Malaysia's Islamist opposition party on Monday demanded that authorities cancel a planned concert by U.S. glam rocker Adam Lambert that they say is promoting "gay culture" in the mainly Muslim country.

The Pan Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS) has also threatened to call "as many of its members and supporters" to proselytize to concert-goers if the performance by the former "American Idol" runner-up goes ahead on Thursday, a party official said.

"Adam Lambert's shows...are outrageous, with lewd dancing and a gay performance that includes kissing male dancers, this is not good for people in our country," said PAS Youth leader Nasrudin Hasan. Homosexual sex is a criminal offense in Malaysia.

PAS is Malaysia's second-largest political party with close to a million members and is a partner in a rainbow opposition grouping led by former Deputy Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.

Foreign acts often draw protests from PAS, which since 2007 has campaigned against performances by singers including Beyonce, Rihanna, Gwen Stefani, Avril Lavigne and Mariah Carey.

Police in May broke up a demonstration by Islamists including PAS supporters protesting against a concert by U.S. rapper Pitbull, underscoring a deepening tide of Islamic conservatism in the country.

An official from Malaysia's Arts, Culture and Heritage Ministry was reported saying that the singer, had signed a contract agreeing to abide by the Ministry's rules on performances, which can require foreign performers to tone down their acts to suit local sensibilities.

David Beckham pays big bucks for sandwich

David Beckham paid $100 for a sandwich.

The soccer star reportedly headed straight to the Barclay Prime restaurant on a recent visit to Philadelphia, where he splashed out on the expensive version of the region's traditional dish Philly cheesesteak - thinly sliced steak and cheese served in a long roll.

The restaurant's gourmet sandwich is made from "sliced Kobe beef, melted Taleggio cheese, shaved truffles, sauteed foie gras, caramelised onions and shaved heirloom tomatoes on a homemade brioche roll brushed with truffle butter and squirted with homemade mustard".

Local residents were amazed to see Los Angeles Galaxy player David - who has three sons, Brooklyn, 11, Romeo, eight, and Cruz, four, with his wife Victoria Beckham - tucking into the calorific treat, while others are unhappy the sandwich has received such an expensive makeover.

One resident Samuel Lehrer said: "You shouldn't mess with the Philadelphia cheesesteak. Let it alone."

Robert Pattinson's anonymous date

Cast members Robert Pattinson (L) and Kristen Stewart pose at the premiere of "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" during the Los Angeles Film Festival at Nokia theatre at L.A. Live in Los Angeles June 24, 2010.

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart went unrecognised at a recent gig.

The 'Twilight' stars - who have long been rumoured to be a real life couple - attended a concert by the band Jenny and Johnny at Troubadour in Los Angeles earlier this week, and managed to enjoy a night of almost complete anonymity despite their global fame.

A source said: "It's very easy for people to blend in which they did amazingly well.

"Almost nobody recognised the two while they were there. The staff was aware, as they get famous people watching shows there all the time and are willing to accommodate their needs if needed."

Despite managing to go unseen by the majority of concert-goers, some did notice they were behaving as if they were a couple and spent the night "extremely close" to each other.

The onlooker told Hollywood Life: "They were close to each other with Kristen in front of Rob almost all night. They never hid the fact they were obviously a couple, they were extremely close the entire time they both were there.

"It looked like they were both enjoying the music but it was Kristen who enjoyed it the most as she was seen singing the songs and there were times she sang songs to Rob, while Rob just smiled and laughed that Kristen was loving it."

It is the second time this week the couple have ventured out and made it clear they were romantically involved - last Saturday (02.10.10) the pair enjoyed a meal out at top Hollywood restaurant Soho House.

A source said: "They were staring at each other throughout dinner and kept stealing quick kisses from one another during the night. Rob's arm was around her for most of dinner and they kept looking at each other and giggling throughout the evening. They are definitely into each other."

Lady Gaga "more powerful" than Nancy Pelosi: Forbes

Singer Lady Gaga speaks at a rally in Portland, Maine, September 20, 2010 urging members of the Senate to repeal the military rule banning openly gay people from serving in the armed forces.

The Forbes list of the world's most powerful women includes Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga, Beyonce Knowles and Ellen DeGeneres, all of whom apparently wield more power than the woman who is second in line for U.S. president.

The annual list, released late Wednesday, places Winfrey third. The talk-show queen is worth $2.7 billion and earned $315 million in the past year, but beyond wealth Forbes takes into account executive position, creative influence and entrepreneurship.

No. 1 on the list is First Lady Michelle Obama. Forbes didn't calculate her and her husband's personal wealth or money earned in the last year, choosing instead to list in that category the country's national budget, which is $3.5 trillion.

After Winfrey, Lady Gaga, at No. 7, is the next media person on the list. She earned $62 million in the past year and, according to Forbes, "single-handedly reinvigorated pop music and pop culture."

Next in media, at No. 9, is Knowles, who earned $87 million and whose music is a favorite of Michelle Obama's, according to Forbes.

Former "American Idol" judge DeGeneres is 10th on the list and earned $55 million. Forbes noted that she recently gave a $30,000 college scholarship to a gay teenager who challenged a high school policy against same-sex prom dates.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who would be in line for the presidency after Vice President Joe Biden, is 11th on the list. Like Michelle Obama, her "money" category consists of the national budget.

Sarah Palin, who Forbes puts in the media category, is No. 16. Her title is "political maverick and commentator," but unlike most others on the list, her entry doesn't include a "money" category. Instead, she gets a "media buzz" category, which says she has 2.3 million Facebook friends and that if you search for her name online you'll get 44 million results.

Other media personalities on the list include Angelina Jolie (No. 21), Katie Couric (No. 22), Arianna Huffington (No. 28), Madonna (No. 29) and Sarah Jessica Parker (No. 45).

2010 Forbes Most Powerful Women In The World top 10:

1. Michelle Obama, US First Lady

2. Irene Rosenfeld, chief executive Kraft Foods

3. Oprah Winfrey, media mogul

4. Angela Merkel, German Chancellor

5. Hillary Clinton, US Secretary of State

6. Indra Nooyi, chief executive, Pepsi

Lady Gaga wants British wedding

Lady Gaga wants to get married in a British castle.

The 'Bad Romance' hitmaker has reportedly told members of her stage crew that she wants to tie the knot with rumoured boyfriend Luc Carl after performing her UK shows in December.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "Lady Gaga has told everyone she plans to get married. She has said she wants a fairytale wedding in a castle.

"We finish the European leg in London just before Christmas and the timing is perfect for the wedding."

According to the insider, the eccentric singer has a string of wishes for her big day, including arriving in a horse-drawn carriage, wearing wedding rings similar to Elvis Presley's horseshoe ring and to have burlesque star Dita Von Teese spring from a cake and perform one of her raunchy routines.

It was recently claimed the 'Poker Face' singer - who first dated Luc in 2005 before rekindling their romance recently - plans to buy a British castle, fuelling speculation she wants to host her wedding in her own house.

A source said recently: "No expense will be spared in her quest to make this dream come true.

"It's her childhood dream and she's particularly interested in castles in the north of England or Scotland."

Paris Hilton to show her real life in new TV show

Paris Hilton is headed back to television -- this time in what is billed as a behind the scenes look at the life and friends of the jet-setting socialite and model.

The Oxygen television network, which is aimed at young women, has given the go-ahead to a reality series that brings "an all-encompassing look at her life, friends, family, and relationships, all that's not represented every day," original programing chief Amy Introcaso-Davis said in a statement on Thursday.

The show will also feature Hilton's friends Brooke Mueller -- the estranged wife of "Two and a Half Men" star Charlie Sheen -- and former Playboy model turned photographer Jennifer Rovero, along with her mother Kathy Hilton.

The show has no name or air date as yet.

Hilton, 29, the great-granddaughter of Hilton hotels founder Conrad Hilton, appeared with friend Nicole Richie in "The Simple Life" years ago and searched for a best friend in the MTV series "My New BFF" in 2008.

A business woman with lines of fashion, hair, fragrance and shoes that she either helps design or endorses, Hilton is rarely out of the news.

Last week, she pleaded guilty in Las Vegas to cocaine possession, and the next day was refused entry to Japan to take part in a fashion show.

In 2007, she famously spent three weeks in jail in Los Angeles for violating her probation on a reckless driving charge.

Oxygen said the new TV show would follow Hilton "as she enters the next stage of her life."
