Pamela's hot body-baring PETA ad banned

Pamela Anderson's risque new PETA ad has been banned in Canada for being 'sexist' and treating the actress like a piece of meat.

Canadian officials denied a permit for an event that was being held for launching Anderson's new animal-rights ad, claiming the ad is sexist.

In the ad, Anderson is seen posing in a bikini and her body is covered in marks suggestive of a butcher's diagram and different parts of her body are labelled 'rump,' 'ribs,' 'breast,' etc.

The ad's caption reads, 'All Animals Have the Same Parts.'

"In a city that is known for its exotic dancing and for being progressive and edgy, how sad that a woman would be banned from using her own body in a political protest over the suffering of cows and chickens," the New York Daily News quoted Anderson as saying.

"It is not so much controversial, as it goes against all principles public organisations are fighting for in the everlasting battle of equality between men and women," an official wrote in an e-mail to PETA.

"I think that city officials are confusing 'sexy' with 'sexist,'" said PETA Senior Vice President Dan Mathews.

The launch of the ad will now be held in a restaurant instead of a public venue as planned earlier.

Oscar winning actress Angelina Jolie has reportedly asked the promoters of her new film Salt to invite the real-life femme fatale Russian spy Anna Chapman for the movie's premiere. 

Jolie's flick, in which she plays a CIA agent suspected of being a Russian sleeper agent, has similarities to the real-life drama of Chapman, who posed for years as an American while serving  Moscow.

Igor Dubinin, one of the promoters of the film, said that it's not easy to find Chapman in order to invite her.

"How are we going to look for Chapman? We have no idea," the New York Post quoted Dubinin as telling Lifenews.ru.  "But since it''s a personal request . . . we'll do everything possible," he added.

The movie's local promoters said they have sent a personal premiere invitation to Chapman's previous home address in Russia and are hopeful.

"This is a unique convergence of a script and the fate of this woman," said another Salt promoter.

 However the spokesman for Sony Pictures said: "We are not aware of anything (invitation to Chapman) like this."
 

Kylie Minogue is set to play a tattooed lesbian in Jack and Diane. The film stars Juno Temple and Elvis Presley's granddaughter, Riley Keough, as teen lovers.

"Kylie does have one love scene where she kisses a girl," The New York Post quoted a source as saying.

"Her fans will be surprised to see her in this role, but her performance is good," added the source.

Leonardo DiCaprio has said that he wants to move away from the front of the camera and work behind it as a director.

The Titanic star has been nominated for three Oscars in the last 16 years.

"Directing is something that will come down the line. It is something I am looking forward to doing - I just have to find the right vehicle. Someday I will get behind something; that would be fun," the Daily Telegraph quoted DiCaprio as saying.

DiCaprio also spoke of his love for Christopher Nolan, who he worked with for Inception.

"I chose this role because Chris Nolan is a visionary. He has been able to pull off some difficult plot structures with Memento and his work with The Dark Knight. This will be his tour

de force as far as directing is concerned," he told HollywoodLife.com.

English singer Robbie Williams rejoined his previous English pop band Take That to record a new album.

This was the first time all the five members of Take That worked together since Williams quit the band 15 years ago.

Williams said he was embarrassingly excited and reuniting with his former group felt like coming home while bandmate Mark Owen added that it feels like a dream.

All the five singers of the band have written songs for the record that is expected to release in November.

"Getting the five of us to be in a room together, although always a dream, never actually seemed like becoming a reality," The Telegraph quoted Owen as saying.

"Now the reality of the five of us making a record together feels like a dream. It's been an absolute delight spending time with Rob again. But I'm still a better footballer," he added.

"I'm over the moon that Robbie's back with us, however long it lasts. I just want to enjoy our time with him. Life is beautifully strange sometimes," said Jason Orange.

The reunion happened in New York in 2009, after Take That's The Circus Live tour.
 
 

Mike Myers and Cameron Diaz have hinted that Shrek the Ogre might return to the big screen yet again.

The fourth film in the animated series, Shrek Forever After, hit cinemas earlier this year and was billed as ''The Final Chapter''.

"We're the last people to know anything that's going on, is the absolute truth. I don't know what's to be with the series," the Daily Express quoted Myers as telling Empire magazine.

Diaz added: "I'm hoping it's just a big Hollywood joke, that they're pretending that we're not going to make another movie and then we're back!"

A boy brought up by legendary pop star Michael Jackson and his family is rumoured to be his secret son, according to insiders.

Donte Williams Jackson may be the son of the King of Pop and a mystery woman he had a brief fling with.

The Jackson family has raised the 18-year-old boy since he was a toddler and he still lives with Jackson's 80-year-old mother Katherine.

Alejandra Oaziaza, who has four kids by Jacko's brothers Randy and Jermaine, mainly looked after Donte.

Earlier it was thought that Donte was the son of Alejandra and Randy, before she left him for Jermaine.

But he can't be their biological son as he was born just eight months after their previous child.

It is now being speculated that Donte is the son of Jackson from an affair in Las Vegas in the 1990s.

"Michael was always very close to Donte. We're not even sure if Donte knows who his parents are. He's one of the nicest kids you could possibly meet," The Sun quoted a source as saying.
