Sandra Bullock had an awards show audience in stitches when she jokingly claimed she’d slept with Tiger Woods.
The 45-year-old film star cracked the golfer gag on stage at the People’s Choice Awards, after being Best Movie Actress.
Announcing the nominees, presenter George Lopez joked: “I have the honour of naming the five white women in America that Tiger Woods has not slept with.”
But when Bullock stepped up to collect her award, she said she needed to correct him.
“It’s only four women up here who have not slept with Tiger Woods,” she said, pulling an awkward face in front of the audience. “Just kidding. I’m so just kidding,” she added.
Bullock, whose movie The Proposal was named Best Comedy Film, also made actress Nicole Kidman blush by commenting on their similar hairstyles.
“I’d just like to say Nicole and I deliberately did our hair the same today,” she laughed, as cameras cast to the Aussie film star who covered her face in the seats below.
But Bullock’s jokes quickly turned to tears when she paid an emotional tribute to her family during the acceptance speech.
“Life is hard sometimes, but we get through with laughter,” she said, choking back tears.
“To my Dad – I hope you’re feeling better. And my husband, who is my boyfriend, who makes me feel like this every single day. He allows me to leave the house and he keeps things settled until I get back so I get to do what I get to do.”
Scarlett Johansson and Liev Schreiber have joked they have a lot in common – including the fact they are both ‘really, really hairy’.
The actors – who will appear on Broadway in A View From The Bridge beginning in January 2010 – posed together in their Christmas best.
“We’re both really, really hairy,” Schreiber, 42, said.
“That’s true,” agreed Johansson, 25. They’re also both half-Jewish, they said.
Schreiber plays Eddie Carbone in the play, a Brooklyn longshoreman obsessed with his 17-year-old niece Catherine, played by Johansson.
Johansson also admitted she would rather stay at home for New Year’s Eve.
She said: “Going from one party to the next and surfing to find the right thing, and being in a taxi cab when the clock strikes – I’m so over that stuff. At the ripe old age of 25.
“I have the most fun when I’m surrounded by people I love in one place that’s comfortable and we can hear each other. You can play card games, watch movies. I’m happy.”
Joking, she added: “So, you can find me at da club with a bottle full of bub is what I’m trying to say.”
Actress Jennifer Garner revealed her latest role – a real-life toilet cleaner at her daughter’s school.
The star also showed she is a true sports fan by naming the starting line-up of husband Ben Affleck’s beloved Boston Red Sox baseball team.
Appearing on Jay Leno’s new show on US television, Garner looked sensational in heels and a stylish one-shouldered blue dress.
But she revealed that while Affleck shoots his latest film in his hometown of Boston, she has been handed a very unglamorous role.
The family, who moved to the city for the shoot, have enrolled three-year-old daughter Violet in a co-operative school – and Garner has learned it means a lot of work for her.
“It means it (the school) is run by the parents – which means a lot of toilet scrubbing, a lot of making the snacks,” she said.
“It’s a lot of painting and pulling out staples but it’s fun, you chat to all the other mums.”
But she said next time she will shoot a film and it will be Affleck looking after Violet – and doing the hard work.
“We take turns. Right now he is directing, but just wait until I’m directing again” she said.
“I’m going to make sure we are at the co-op of all co-ops and he is going to go to every meeting and make macaroni and cheese… and I’m going to say, ‘have fun, honey!’”
Actor Sterling Knight said he “absolutely despised” co-star Zac Efron before he met him on the set of their movie 17 Again.
Sterling, 20, plays the son of Mike O’Donnell in the film alongside Zac, 21, who plays the younger version of O’Donnell when he wakes up 17 years old again.
Sterling said: “I’ll be honest with you. Before I met Zac, I absolutely despised him. I was a struggling actor.
“I’d look at him and think: ‘This kid gets everything.’ I wanted to hate him. But I couldn’t.
“He is honestly the coolest, most genuine, down-to-earth guy I ever met.”
Transformers star Megan Fox has had therapy to help her get over the sex demons that have tormented her since she was young.
Megan, 23, blames her insecurities and attitude to sex on her religious upbringing.
She told British newspaper the Daily Star Sunday: “I was raised Pentecostal, which is one of the most extreme denominations of Christianity that exists. Everything is evil and wrong and will send you to hell.”
She added: “So I had lots of talks about how sex was evil, sex was bad.”
Megan, who recently posed as a nun to promote her film How to Lose Friends & Alienate People, openly rebelled as she questioned the beliefs she was taught at her religious school in Florida.
She said: “I fought against everything I was ever taught or told and that just created more of a monster when I was a teenager.”
She added: “I don’t ever feel sexy in small clothes. I always feel really insecure. I don’t like wearing make-up.”
Her role in the new film Jennifer’s Body, which hits UK cinemas on November 6, has helped to increase her confidence.
In the movie Megan plays a man-eating teenager who is possessed by a sex-mad spirit.
She said: “I get to exercise my demons through her. She has really deep, unfriendly insecurities which I can relate to.”
Lost hero Matthew Fox was spanked during an initiation ceremony at university, he has been forced to reveal.
The 42-year-old made the embarrassing admission after endless probing during a television interview.
At first Fox, also known as Charlie from Party of Five, denied any funny business during an “insane” university initiation.
He said: “There was no spanking. Trust me, if I was spanked I would admit it. There were other very bizarre things but no spanking.
“It’s pretty good damn embarrassing but I’m not going to tell you. I’ve sub-consciously blocked it all out.
“All right, I was spanked, I was spanked. Jesus Christ,” he said.
Fox, best known as Jack Shepherd in drama series Lost, will begin filming the final series in August. “It’s going to be tough to say goodbye to it.
“I’m going to be sad to say goodbye to the entire experience and some of the relationships that I’ve made working on the show but there’s also another part of me that’s incredibly excited about the next chapter and where we’re headed.”

p>Justin Long has said he was “honoured” to work with Spiderman director Sam Raimi on new film Drag Me To Hell.
The 30-year-old actor, who has had an on-off relationship with Drew Barrymore, admitted he loves horror movies and jumped at the chance to appear in the new flick.
Asked if he was a fan of Raimi, he said: “Huge. I love Evil Dead, I grew up watching those movies. Darkman and The Gift are brilliant, too. He’s responsible for some of my favourite movies.”
He added: “He’s always been great with actors. I was honoured, I was really excited. It was a no-brainer.”
Singer Fergie from Black Eyed Peas recently had a chance to indulge in all her culinary fantasies for her part in the movie “Nine”. She actually managed to put on an extra 13 lbs for the part, but she stated that she is desperate to lose the weight before she marries her fiancé, Josh Duhamel: “”I have to give the bad food up now! So, yeah – I’m in that phase! Back to diet designs – my food delivery service!” So it’s back to food torture for Fergie… one must wonder if she thinks she will lose any of her inherent charm because of the extra weight.
Like any other super star, the sweet and sexy Jessica Biel also hates getting old every year.
While talking to the Marie Claire magazine’s recent edition, the 26-year-old Jessica Biel told the reporters that her biggest fear in the life is to get older.
About her recent body changes, she told, “I feel my knees changing – like, why do I have this pain when I’m running on the treadmill? What’s going on with my lower back when I wake up in the morning? I just feel changes.”
She further added, “And I’m definitely fearful in a very vain manner about my body aging. I think It is freaky weird to look at a picture of your grandmother when she was a younger woman and look at her now.”
Hey Jessica! Don’t be afraid. Everyone gets old one day.
British singer Joss Stone reportedly headbutted her own brother at a baptism. She was supposed to be godmother to her brother’s son but angered her family by arriving 30 minutes late to the baptism. She then refused to properly read some church stuff and when confronted by her relatives, she called them “old biddies”. When her bro called her out on her behavior, Joss turned violent as one guest revealed to the Daily Mirror “She was absolutely furious and they had a full-blown argument. They were screaming at each other and the next thing, Joss headbutted him. Other family members ran over to break it up and she stormed off. It turned from a nice family affair into a brawl between Joss and her brother. No one could believe it.”
Lily Allen is terrified she is turning into her mother. The ‘Smile’ singer – who traveled to the US this weekend to finish work on her new album – is so worried she is showing the same traits as her mother Alison it is making her feel sick.
She wrote on her blog: “We did go to my favorite sushi place last night, Ita-cho on Beverly. The miso eggplant (aubergine) is to die for, and the grilled peppers were pretty killer. ‘To die for, killer?’ Oh my god, I think I am getting old and uncool, I just used naff adjectives to describe something I like. Like my mother saying, ‘groovy’ or ‘yumsville’. Oh my god I’m going to be sick! I hope that was the jet lag talking.”
Lily also revealed she was treated to a ride in an airport buggy. She added: “They drove us to the gate on one of those buggy things as well, which was really fun, never been on one of those before. I don’t think all the business men liked us very much, some pink haired weirdo!”
Kerry Katone has warned hubby that she will divorce him if a lie detector test proves that rumours are true – that he has been cheating on her.
The former Atomic Kitten star will this week make Mark Croft take a polygraph test after allegations that he has had affairs with two women.
If he refuses to take it, or fails it, she has told him their 13-year marriage is over.
A source close to the couple confirmed: “If Mark’s not telling the truth, he’s out.”
The crunch came last week after she apparently found a text on his mobile from a mystery woman saying I Love You. She was so upset she checked into The Priory for three days.
The couple are currently starring in fly-on-the-wall TV series Crazy In Love. But Kerry has no intention of letting makers MTV film the test—indicating her bid to discover the truth about Croft’s flings is no stunt.
J-Lo’s husband Marc Anthony is such a natural with their new twins – the singer and her staff have nicknamed him the ‘Burp Whisperer’.
The Latino hunk is so taken with newborns Max and Emme that he has been helping tend to the tots day and night.
He said: “I’m so excited. I’m so hands-on with them that the household developed a nickname for me. They call me the Burp Whisperer. I told Jennifer, nothing you do is small. Everything you do it on such large scale. The first time you give birth, you give birth to twins.”
Yesterday I reported that Potter star Daniel Radcliffe was being protected by former SAS guards after a threat on his life. But that’s not enough for our star.
The stalker target also wanted a two-man SAS team to walk his dogs. The Potty star is afraid beloved pets Binka and Nugget will be kidnapped and killed.
He also requested that 15 SAS men guard him. But he was instead assigned four ex-SAS officers by his management who told him: “You’re Harry Potter, not J-Lo!”
The stalker, in his 20s, has shown up at Daniel’s home and favourite diners in West London.
Lily Allen is most definitely going from one low to another. She just can’t get a break! The singer’s highly hyped new talk show has premiered to disastrous ratings. ‘Lily Allen and Friends’ only had 255,000 viewers for its first broadcast on BBC3. That’s far off from the network’s average of 466,000 viewers for her time slot. I guess those people in the audience that walked out before the taping even reached halfway through weren’t the only ones who thought Lily was a big bomb. But then again, if putting a whole fist in your mouth is all the talent you do on your show then yeah, you would be a bomb.
Backstreet Boys’ unofficial front mat Nick Carter was caught as he took a quick pick into his nose when he was waiting to check in on Monday at LAX International Airport in Los Angeles, California. Whether it was a pick, a scratch or complete nasal penetration, it’s all the joys of the nose pick. You better just hope you don’t get caught in public.
Nick is going to join the rest of his man band soon as The Backstreet Boys ‘Unbreakable Tour’ will kick off on February 16 in Tokyo, Japan and will end on May 14 in London, England. So far, there aren’t any stops in the US.
She is officially the hottest, well, make that most popular girl around. Ugly Betty has finally managed to get her own doll.
Made by Madame Alexander, it is a perfect representation of the America Ferrera character. But they aren’t available just yet. The doll will be offered in both 8 and 18 inch versions and will be available starting in May.
Joss Stone, the British girl that we all thought we could love is at it again with her diarrhea mouth. And she wonders why people hate her these days.
In a recent interview, she ranted about people hating on her for her accent saying “At the end of the day, I don’t give a f**k if people have a problem with my accent. That’s all I can say about it. The words I say do not change. If the way that it sounds is skew-whiff and you don’t like it, don’t listen. I’m not being a cruel person by sounding a different way. I made my album with a bunch of Americans. When people go to Australia for two weeks they come back sounding Australian – but the whole world doesn’t turn round and say, ‘Well, f**k you.’ Which is basically what England had done. Obviously not everybody in England. But the big press people. They were just like, ‘You know what? We’ve decided we don’t like you anymore.’”
Hmm, well not really. Hilary claims that she is a murderer, after leaving her pet hermit crab out in the sun when she was a child. Doesn’t really chalk up to the most wanted list though Hilary. Accidents happen.
Hilary said: “When I was young, I was given a hermit crab. Its shell was painted with spots. I left him outside to get some sun, but when I picked him up the next day, he’d jellified. It was disgusting. I’m a murderer!”
The 20-year-old star, who has four pet dogs, also revealed she is such a fan of pooches she would be happiest living in a “weird house full of dogs”.
She said: “I’m one of those crazy dog people! If I could I would live on a huge ranch with lots of dogs. I’d be so happy. People would say, ‘Whatever happened to Hilary Duff?’ And others would say, ‘Oh, she lives in the weird house with all the dogs.’”
