    Pink

    http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/showbiz/xs...s-bisexual.html Pink is bisexual 02/05/2009 PARTY popper PINK has waved BI BI to her biggest secret, revealing: "I'm not embarrassed about being bisexual. This is who I am." For years, the So What singer has denied ever having a romance with another woman. But in an XSlusive interview, Pink - real name ALECIA MOORE - reveals she enjoys girl-on-girl action. The star, who put on a blistering performance at the O2 Arena this week, told me: "Love is pure and I try to keep it that way. This is who I am, what I feel. "I think it's unnecessary to draw the subject out, but I think it even more stupid not to discuss it. "It seems as if bisexuality is a trend and I should whip up the masses. Well, I don't believe in trends, I just believe in me." The superstar has recently reconciled with her ex-hubby CAREY HART after they separated a year ago. But she said: "I would also be just as happy with a new women. I'm not complicated, I sing about love in all its shapes, forms and colours." Pink, 29, has always been surrounded by rumours about her sexuality, but in the past has always firmly denied she would ever start a relationship with a woman. As recently as last October she claimed: "I'm not gay so I guess I would not try a relationship with a woman." The singer, who has sold more than 34 million albums worldwide, added: "My love knows no colour, no gender, no fuss." I know my revelation will excite Pink's devoted army of lesbian fans who attended her gig on Friday in their droves, but she's already preparing herself for a backlash. "I speak my mind, I sing about everyday stuff such as homosexuality and sadly the homophobia that always comes with it," she admitted. And Pink has promised not to join the long list of famous female singers (LILY ALLEN, for one) moaning about their fame. She said: "Famous female singers tend to moan and whine a lot about being famous. "Damn, I'm Pink and my bank account hasn't seen a red zero for a long time, and I can do what I love best-sing. Isn't that something that makes life better?" Regardless of her sexuality, her attitude to being famous is very refreshing. Some of the current "stars", particularly the talentless, do-absolutely-anything-to-get-headlines, whiny airheads (male and female), need to take a leaf out of this girl's book.

    Monica Bellucci

    http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/beauty/yay-...p-it-up-446538/ Yay! French Elle's amazing no-makeup issue (and why American mags need to step it up) by Jennifer Romolini, Shine staff, on Tue Apr 14, 2009 1:50pm PDT 1042 The April issue of French Elle features eight female European celebrities--including Eva Herzigova, Monica Bellucci, Sophie Marceau, and Charlotte Rampling--all without makeup and, perhaps even more revealing, all entirely without Photoshopping or retouching of any kind. The mag's headline "Stars Sans Fards" translates to “without rouge/makeup,” but it's a French saying that also suggests a sense of “openness.” Judging from the images that have been leaked so far (the entire issue hits newsstands later this week), this title could not be more apt. Model Herzigova, 36, and actresses Marceau, 42, and Bellucci, 44, all look refreshingly natural, relaxed, and vulnerable in a way American stars are seldom seen. In fact, what might be most striking about French Elle's pictorial is how it actually appears to embrace and celebrate the organic beauty of these famous faces (even if the lighting is super, super flattering and the women are all unbelievably gorgeous to begin with). In the U.S., when you come across a "stars without makeup" story, there's always a GOTCHA! element, a message that says "Our gift to you: Derive pleasure from how ugly this person looks without cover-up for her zits!" If you think about it, even our celebration of "natural beauty" is often far from natural. Consider the air-brushing scandal that surrounded last year's Dove ads, or the countless "normal" celebs who are heralded for their curves but then, when they're featured in a magazine, are digitally whittled down so they appear several sizes slimmer. We're a curvy country that can't handle looking at curvy people. It's all kind of sad. And, honestly, French Elle's April '09 issue is not the first time our women's mags have been out-classed by the Europeans. Last year--in protest of the serious lack of diversity on catwalks, ads and in women's magazines--Italian Vogue published an all-black issue featuring models of color from around the world. It sold out in days. So American magazine editors, I plead to you: It's time to step up your game. American readers would like to see some real, healthy women who actually look like themselves. Please stop with the whole Frankenstein thing: We know you attach your cover models' heads to skinnier bodies. We know you slim down their thighs and their noses and you lighten their skin. We know you smooth out all of the facial "imperfections" that make them look human. We're tired of fembots. We can handle the truth. Seriously, the next time you're shooting Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry, Aniston, SJP, Alba, or basically anyone we've seen you airbrush into a complete, unrecognizable freak; pause, take a deep breath, and ask yourself, "Would this person look more beautiful and relatable without all this fake garbage?" We're guessing the answer will always be "Yes." I wouldn't imagine any man (and probably not a lot of women!) would object to seeing that on the other side of the bed every morning!! She really is gorgeous. Girl crush!

    So, BobbyD ... how many breath mints would this take?? http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showb...icle2224144.ece Naked Monica romps in shower By NADIA MENDOZA Published: 10 Feb 2009 ITALIAN actress MONICA BELLUCCI certainly knows how to titillate her male fans just in time for Valentine's Day. The former fashion model, who played Mary Magdelene in MEL GIBSON's The Passion of the Christ, bares all in a sizzling shower scene. L'Uomo Che Ama, which translates to The Man Who Loves, tells the tale of a fortysomething fella who suffers at the hands of his complex relationships. PIERFRANCESCO FAVINO, who has struck mainstream success alongside BEN STILLER in Night at the Museum and TOM HANKS in Angels & Demons, also stars in the movie. Hmm, I wonder if showering with Monica Bellucci would give one wet dreams!

    Dita Von Teese

    http://www.fabulousmag.co.uk/celebs/celeb_dita_053.php 'Divorce turned me off SEX for a year' AFTER HER FAILED MARRIAGE TO GOTH ROCKER MARILYN MANSON, DITA VON TEESE DID THE UNTHINKABLE - FOR HER - AND BECAME CELIBATE. SHE TELLS FABULOUS ABOUT GETTING BACK IN THE SADDLE By Louise Gannon Dita Von Teese bursts out laughing as she points to a Hermès riding crop peeping out from under her bed in the sumptuous boudoir of her Hollywood home. To Dita it's much more than a sexy prop. It's a symbol that - after a year of celibacy brought on by her divorce - she's back to herself and has never felt so alive. "Let's say I'm enjoying myself at the moment," explains the world-famous burlesque star often dubbed The Sexiest Woman On The Planet. ''I have suddenly become quite lecherous and it's fun. I absolutely adore good sex. Like anyone, I think about sex a lot and let's face it, in times like these it's one thing you can really enjoy because it doesn't cost a thing." In the pale and very perfect flesh, 36-year-old Dita is stunning. Her body is kept in super-seductress shape by a lifelong regime of Pilates, ballet and healthy eating, not to mention those corsets, which hone her 23in waist down to a tiny 16in - that's the size of a thigh to the rest of us. "It's my job to look good naked," she says, caressing the hem of her figure-hugging retro dress. "I think it's true that the more sex you have, the more sexy you become. Plus, the more sex you get, the more you want it. I'm single and for the first time I'm enjoying that." Although Dita ­does admit she'd like to be in a proper relationship. "I want someone with that extra-special sexual chemistry, where you just want to devour them all the time. That's very hard to find, but I'm looking." Eight years ago, Dita believed she'd found her "extra-special" man when she began dating the intriguingly bizarre Marilyn Manson, 40. It was an interesting match: the stripper who'd reinvented herself with black hair dye and a beauty spot tattoo, and the make-up-mad singer with his own alter-ego. They married in 2005, but within a year she'd filed for divorce, unable to put up with his partying or budding relationship with 21-year-old actress Evan Rachel Wood, with whom he has since split. Dita was so devastated by her marriage breakdown, she abandoned sex for a year - a tough call for someone whose sexuality exudes from every pore of her 5ft 6in frame. It's an image that she has worked hard to achieve. She wasn't always the raven-haired seductress we know today. Dita was originally born Heather Sweet, a natural blonde (gasp!) who grew up in Michigan. After training as a costume designer at college, she began stripping at 19, setting herself apart from the other girls with her vintage-inspired outfits and retro hairstyles. Her risqué moniker was a tribute to silent film actress Dita Parlo, coupled with a name she found in the phone book. A career as an actress and fetish model followed, with Dita becoming famous as a 'tightlacer', lacing herself into 16½in corsets. After appearing in Playboy in 1999, 2001 and 2002 she finally made it on the cover in 2004 - and so arrived Von Teese . . . But it's not all stage play. This is the woman who's admitted to experimenting with threesomes, lesbian relationships and bondage, who regularly strips in a giant Martini glass and has made her millions playing the ultimate public temptress. Kylie Minogue even described her as "the most sensual woman you could ever meet". But following the split, Dita lost her mojo. "After the divorce I was going through complete heartbreak," she says. "It changes you. I spent the first year not having sex at all, which was strange as I still continued to convey sex in my work. "But I didn't feel ready to have another partner. I didn't feel the inner chemistry you need to want to have sex. It wasn't there. I needed to get the past out of my system and to listen to my emotions. "After a split a lot of men put on a band-aid by getting another woman. I wanted to deal with the break-up and learn from it and I've done that now. I wanted to come through it and be able to love again as if my heart had never been broken." But Dita has not quite had her fill of bad boys. "You know what?" she says. "I absolutely accept that I'll have my heart broken again, and probably again and again. "But I don't think I'm the sort of girl who'll be celebrating a 75th anniversary with a man. I actually enjoy rollercoasters of life, and with great passion sometimes comes great heartbreak. I think I'll end up belonging to the club of glamorous women like Lana Turner and Betty Grable, who had big, adventurous love affairs. The road less travelled can be more frightening, but it's a lot of fun." Then she pauses and adds: "The only thing is, at the moment I'm definitely not looking at musicians. I'm attracted to normal, sweet-looking guys in sweaters. I'm finished with the leather trousers and eyeliner types. "You can have a rollercoaster ride with a nice guy in a sweater." 5 FEISTY QUESTIONS WHO WOULD YOU LOVE TO DO A STRIPTEASE FOR? "Prince. He's amazing. I recently met him and he said he wanted to see my show. I'd love him to come!" WHO'S THE LAST GUY YOU CALLED ON YOUR MOBILE? "A musician called Patrick. No romance. He's working on my Crazy Horse show." WHO LOOKS BETTER NAKED, A MAN OR A WOMAN? "I'd prefer to see a woman strip on stage, but in my bedroom it would have to be a man!" LIFE OR DEATH… WOULD YOU WEAR GRANNY BASHER KNICKERS OR HOLEY TIGHTS? "Big knickers, definitely. If I have the tiniest hole in my tights then I have to go home and change them. It's an obsession with me." WHAT PIECE OF MAKE-UP WOULD YOU TAKE TO A DESERT ISLAND? "Red lipstick. It's so adaptable - you could use it on your lips, cheeks and to pink up your nipples if you met a hot native. It could also come in handy for a rescue note." LUST LESSONS FIND YOUR INNER SEXINESS "A lot of people confuse the idea of being sexy with an image of how they think they should look. There's no one way to be sexy. I feel most sexy in stockings, garters and gorgeous lingerie, but that's not because I think men will like it - it's what I like. Everyone is different, so work out what makes you feel most sexy and go with it. Variety is the spice of life." GOOD LIGHTING "It's totally essential. To look your best you have to have good lighting. Fix a dimmer switch in the bedroom and play with the settings. I have dimmers in all my rooms." BE AN EXPERT "I like to be adventurous in the bedroom, but want to know what I'm doing. I read Nina Hartley's Guide To Total Sex all the time. Nina was a famous porn star who experienced every kind of sex, then wrote all about it, detail by detail. It's the best book about sex ever." SMILE! "When a man pictures his woman in his head he'll always remember when she's laughing and smiling, not necessarily when she's trying her hardest to look sexy. If you feel happy and comfortable, then you're more likely to feel sexy - even if it's in your skinny jeans and boots, or short skirt. Just let yourself go." DON'T DISMISS 'VANILLA' SEX "Normal or conventional sex can be just as good as adventurous sex. You should never feel like you are under pressure to perform. When someone's trying to impress you, it doesn't work. It's better to let one thing lead to another naturally, so you're more relaxed." PICK YOUR FANTASIES "When I was younger I used to think I'd be the best girlfriend I could and invite a female friend for a threesome, but it always backfired. I'd suggest thinking about other ways to make sex exciting. And remember, it's OK to keep some fantasies as just that." EXPECT A BIT OF TORTURE "Is he going to call? Isn't he? Does he like me? Doesn't he? Every girl goes through it - whether you're Kate Moss or the girl next door. Accept it as part of the excitement of being with a guy and enjoy it." BE A GIRL'S GIRL "There are two types of women - those who prey on taken men, and those who don't. The first group are not sexy because they don't have any confidence or self-esteem. I love men but I'm a girl's girl, which may be one reason Jennifer Lopez asked me to perform for her husband, Marc Anthony, and why the singer Fergie booked me for her husband's stag party. They know they can trust me. There's nothing sexy about hitting on another woman's man, it's just mean-spirited." Dita is performing at the Crazy Horse cabaret club, Paris, until February 15.

    Dita Von Teese

    http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showb...icle2163094.ece Dita's French fancy By MARCUS BARNES Published: Today MAYBE Paris isn't so gay after all. Not judging by their latest stunning celeb guest anyway. Busty Burlesque beauty DITA VON TEESE is set to titillate French audiences after booking a return to perform striptease at Paris' most famous nude revue. The pint-sized star, who has boosted the popularity of Burlesque with her inventive striptease act - using larger-than-life size martini glasses, carousel horses and rhinestone-encrusted bubble baths as props, has been booked in for a two-week run at the Crazy Horse in the French capital. And she plans to show off her musical skills during the shows, which begin on February 1 and run through to Valentine's Day, by performing songs she has recorded. Although, you'd have some kind of couple to go to a strip show on Valentine's Day. Von Teese, who was married goth rocker MARILYN MANSON, said: "I feel that Paris is a place that still appreciates its showgirls. I feel I have to raise the bar. "I've always had a real fascination with the Crazy Horse ever since I was a teenager and I found a picture of this line of nearly nude toy soldiers standing at attention. "(I want to) combine the Crazy Horse style with what I do, which is classic American burlesque." Better get that Eurostar ticket booked then, eh lads... That photo must have been taken from a funny angle - she looks like a brunette Jessica Rabbit!

    Kevin Bacon & Kyra Sedgwick

    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/am...on-1220029.html Six degrees of separation – from Bernard Madoff to Kevin Bacon By Stephen Foley in New York Thursday, 1 January 2009 Kyra Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon put money into Bernard Madoff's scheme The actor Kevin Bacon and his wife, Kyra Sedgwick, have become the latest celebrities to admit they are victims of Bernard Madoff, the Wall Street swindler. The list of rich and powerful figures affected by the finance industry's biggest ever fraud is still growing by the day, three weeks after Madoff confessed to the FBI that he had lost $50bn (£34bn) of his clients' money. Bacon's publicist, Allen Eichhorn, admitted the couple had become ensnared in the fraud, responding to rumours whipping through Hollywood. But it is still unclear how much the pair may have lost. "I can confirm that they had investments with Mr Madoff," Mr Eichhorn said, "no further specifics or comment beyond that." Hollywood has not been spared the fallout from the Madoff scandal, which has affected a broad swathe of people, from the super-rich families of the US east coast, Latin America and Europe, to modest Jewish charities and Connecticut firefighters whose pension funds were funnelled into Madoff's pyramid scheme. He told the FBI that, instead of investing the money, he had been paying existing clients with money taken in from new investors, and now there was practically nothing left. His lawyers said yesterday he would comply with a court's New Year's Eve deadline to set out what remains of the money and his own assets, including luxury homes along the east coast. The Wunderkinder Foundation, set up by director Steven Spielberg to distribute grants to environmental and children's health causes, among others, was the first to admit to losing money with Madoff. Mr Spielberg's long-time business partner, Jerry Katzenberg, founder of DreamWorks animation, was also hit, along with Eric Roth, who wrote the screenplay for Forrest Gump. New victims keep emerging. Yesterday, Wall Street was surprised to learn that one of its most savvy economic pundits was also taken in by Madoff and his network of unsuspecting fundraisers. Henry Kaufman, who came to be known as Dr Doom for his gloomy economic projections, said he had put "a couple of per cent" of his net worth with the fraudster. Major financial institutions have also been hit. The Austrian government took over Vienna's Medici bank, which was brought to the brink of collapse by $2.1bn in Madoff losses. And the pain is still being felt in Palm Beach, the luxury Florida resort where Madoff solicited funds from members of his country club and golfing partners. Wowed by his claims of two decades of solid investment returns, many people put their entire fortune with him. A $10,000 statue of two lifeguards, which was stolen earlier this week from the grounds of Madoff's Palm Beach mansion, was found yesterday in nearby bushes with a note attached. It read: "Bernie the Swindler, Lesson: Return stolen property to rightful owners. Signed by - The Educators." The losses faced by Bacon and Sedgwick will be a blow to a couple who have largely shunned the Hollywood limelight, preferring to spend most of their time in New York, where they have raised two teenage children. They are not touted among best paid or most powerful lists of stars but have seen their earning power rise dramatically in the past few years. Bacon's roles in numerous diverse films inspired the parlour game "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon", where players try to connect any actor to him in as few links as possible. Last year, he helped set up SixDegrees.org, a website that encourages social networking between philanthropists and charities.

Check out Monica BELLucci looking appealing well into in her naughty forties. The Italian screen siren stripped for these sensational black and white photos taken just DAYS after her 44th birthday. And thankfully Monica promises that as long as people want so see her naked she’ll carry on peeling off. See more sexy photos of Monica Bellucci here She purrs: “I love the idea that when a man pays to see one of my films, he’s paying me to feel pleasure.” Her legion of fans have taken plenty of pleasure watching beauty Bellucci in films like Shoot ’Em Up, starring Clive Owen. And her latest flick, The Man Who Loves, had its premiere at the Rome Film Festival last month. Monica admits that being in front of the camera makes her shed her inhibitions as fast as her clothing. “When I am acting, it’s like I’m in a trance,” she explains. “You do things you would never do normally. You don’t feel cold — even if you are naked.” Well, it’s certainly enough to give the rest of us chills! See more stunning pictures of Monica in the November issue of Italian QC, out now.

    Paul & Stella McCartney clan

    Now I know some of you have a rather low opinion of the News of the World but personally I love it because it regularly exposes scandals. And liars. Case in point: http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/0212_heath...l_frontal.shtml EXPOSED: Shocking full frontal pics that prove.. MUCCA'S A PORN LIAR By Carole Aye Maung SLEAZY Heather Mills flaunts her private parts in a sordid snap that finally nails her lies about her porn past. Mucca squeezed into a red lace teddy with matching stockings for a hardcore photoshoot. She pulled down her top to expose her boobs and splayed her legs in this classic porn magazine pose. And in another of the explicit shots — taken before she lost her leg in a 1993 road accident-she writhed knickerless on a white quilted bed, cupping her naked breasts. Across the pages of the smutty mag, pouting Heather boasts: "I'm gonna drive you crazy with my body...". Yet just a month ago, the estranged wife of Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney had the front to go on GMTV and rant hysterically that newspaper stories of her porn past were untrue. Heather, 39, cried crocodile tears and said: "They eliminate the whole 20 years of my life of campaigning and put in things like ‘hardcore porn queen'." She dismissed her top shelf career as "glamour modelling". Now we'd love to hear how the former hooker explains this snap of her as an unashamed hardcore porn queen. Last year, Heather strenuously denied ever being involved in porn after lurid shots emerged of her posing in a German sex book. Die Freuden Der Liebe (The Joys Of Love)—shot in 1988—featured her naked, performing a sex act on a nude male porn star. Heather tried to play down the filthy book as a "sex educational manual". But clearly there is NOTHING educational about today's sickening photo. Seething A source told the News of the World: "Paul has tried to give Heather the benefit of the doubt for the sake of their daughter Beatrice. Now these pictures have surfaced, it's impossible." Meanwhile Mucca, who also blasted the press for calling her a gold-digger, is scouring glossy showbiz mags in the hunt for a rich new fella. She is seething after seeing photos in last week's News of the World of Sir Paul, 65, canoodling with Pulp Fiction star Rosanna Arquette in London. We revealed how Macca—battling Heather in a £100million divorce war— is dating the 48-year-old actress. A source close to Mucca said: "Heather saw pictures of Paul strolling with Rosanna and it made her stomach roll. "Now she wants to orchestrate a similar set of pictures to get Paul back. That means picking someone who will make a good photo opportunity. "Heather went out and bought magazines to see who's hitting the headlines and has been making a list of her favourites." Classy. (Hope this pic isn't too naughty for the regular thread. If so, could one of you wonderful Mods send it to the RLD. Thanks.)

    Now she's pissed off her lawyers too! From the UK Sun: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article444464.ece Heather’s rants wrecking case HEATHER Mills was last night looking for new divorce lawyers – after the top firm she hired “fired” her over her bizarre TV war against Sir Paul McCartney. Lady Mucca, 39 – who went on GMTV AGAIN yesterday – was phoned by legal eagles Mishcon de Reya and told they could no longer represent her in her £50million battle with the ex-Beatle. A source claimed the firm acted because Heather was wrecking her own case with repeated tirades. The insider revealed: “Mishcon have just been tearing their hair out. They are astonished at Heather’s crazy outbursts.” The law firm ditched the ex-porn star after she DEFIED a gag on talking about the couple’s daughter Beatrice. The order had been put in place to safeguard the four-year-old’s privacy. Mucca also snubbed legal rules against blabbing about her marriage in public. The source said: “She was warned against going on TV and talking about Paul, their marriage and anything about her daughter. But she just refused to listen. She was told time and again to keep quiet because she might hand Sir Paul’s lawyers an easy victory. “But she is so crazy she decided she knew better than the best divorce lawyers in the country. Reputation “It is total madness. Her bid to win public sympathy could end up with her throwing away millions.” Just last week The Sun told how Mucca was dumped by her publicist Phil Hall following her outbursts in a string of TV interviews in Britain and America. She blamed Sir Paul, 65, for their marriage woes and accused him of failing to help when he knew she felt suicidal. Yesterday she told GMTV’s Fiona Phillips: “A little girl came up to me and said, ‘You made me cry last week’.” Mucca left the studio brandishing papers bearing the name of a website she backs. Mishcon’s top lawyer Sir Anthony Julius had been lined up to represent her. Last night Mishcon refused to comment. Sir Paul – who The Sun exclusively revealed this week has turned to wealthy American socialite Nancy Shevell – was also tight-lipped.

    This woman should be in Hollywood. She must have put on an Oscar-worthy performance before she hooked him! http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/maccaparty.shtml MUCCA SNAPS AT BIRTHDAY BASH THE McCARTNEYS' bitter divorce war spilled over into their daughter Beatrice's third birthday party with venomous explosions of hatred. Heather launched an astonishing rant at a photographer and one of Macca's closest aides branded her a "f****** whore". The couple had tried to put their differences aside for their little girl as they met at a kids' activity centre for the first time since their acrimonious split. But while Macca put on a brave face, playing happily with his daughter, grim-faced Heather attacked the snapper. In front of shocked parents and children she hissed: "I'm gonna get an assassin to kill you. You're the scum of the earth." Just a couple of minutes later, Macca's right-hand man John Hammell told the cameraman: "Don't take a picture of Paul. Get a picture of that f****** whore". The amazing scenes took place outside the Clambers Kids' Activity Centre in Hastings, Sussex, where Bea had played for around two hours with her little pals as her parents mingled with other mums and dads at the bash, keeping their distance from each other. The couple arrived separately, Macca with Bea, and left the centre apart. But for just over a minute they had their first public face-to-face meeting for more than four months as Macca walked under a bridge with Bea on his shoulders while stony-faced Heather crossed it. They exchanged a few brief nervy words before Macca strolled on to the car park to head home. As he disappeared, Heather rounded on hapless photographer Gareth Connolly in front of parents and children who had been guests at the party. The stunned cameraman, returning to his own car, then had his encounter with Hammell standing a few yards from where Macca and Bea were sitting in the singer's 4X4. McCartney did not hear what his right-hand man said. Macca took Bea back to his Peasmarsh estate in Sussex to meet relatives and carry on with the rest of the poor tot's not-so-happy birthday. For Bea's sake I hope Paul gets custody.

    http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/story_pages/news/news1.shtml I'LL KILL THE BITCH! By Rav Singh and James Desborough PAUL McCartney's daughter Stella threatened to KILL her hated stepmother in a blazing bust-up with her dad, we can reveal. The fashion designer flew into a terrifying rage after hearing that Heather claimed Macca hit her mother Linda. Pregnant Stella, 34, had to be restrained by the former Beatle as she screamed: "I'm going to kill that bitch! I can't believe what she's doing! I'm going to kill her!'" It was clear she didn't mean it literally but she was beside herself after reading what Heather had said about Linda. "I told you she was a bitch," she screamed. "Why did you marry her? She's been a manipulative cow from day one. The cow won't be happy until she destroys all of us — and our memories of our mother'." Last week we revealed how Heather was the violent one in the collapsed marriage, smashing up rooms, hurling missiles and making threats against her husband. Now we can reveal the full extent of Stella's bitter hatred of the woman who replaced her beloved mother. Our source revealed how: THE two women thrashed out an astonishing HATE PACT after the marriage so they would never have to talk to each other. STELLA is so disgusted by the blonde ex-model she compared her to a pile of VOMIT, calling her morning sickness "Heathering". ONLY weeks away from giving birth, Stella is under so much strain she has HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, putting her pregnancy in jeopardy, and Sir Paul, 64, is drinking heavily. HIS marriage was in tatters TEN MONTHS ago — and when a desperate Sir Paul suggested marriage counselling, 38-year-old Heather REFUSED. Stella's explosive rant happened during a meeting with her dad to discuss the divorce. "Paul kept pleading with her to calm down—but she couldn't," said a source close to the family. "She wanted to go straight to see Heather, but he said, ‘You can't go anywhere in that state'. He had to stand in front of the door and stop her. He was pleading with her. It was a heartbreaking scene." And it was the culmination of a resentment that had been bubbling since the day Macca announced he was going to marry the ex-model. Our source told how a few weeks after the 2002 wedding, the rock legend got Stella and Heather together on a secret night out in London. "He was adamant they should be one big happy family — he didn't realise how wrong he could be. "From what Stella said to friends she told her stepmum she was a money-grabbing bitch and Heather hissed at her to mind her own business. "The upshot of a very frosty evening was, ‘You keep out of my way, I'll keep out of yours'. It broke Paul's heart." Stella's hatred only deepened as she watched the marriage crumble. When she had morning sickness she gave it a nickname. "She called it Heathering. That's how bad it is," said our source. "Heather is just vomit as far as she's concerned. But what she's doing to Stella's dad is really getting to her. Her blood pressure is very high, not something you need in the latter stages of a pregnancy." Our source told how the marriage was in trouble from the start of this year. "They were arguing over anything and Heather was taking it out on her staff. Once she reduced their gardener to tears because she didn't like the way he'd cut the flowers. "Paul would spend more and more time at Stella's and would be constantly on the phone to her when he was at home. "He would say, ‘I just don't know what to do any more. I love her but she's become this horrible woman.' "Stella would get so upset listening to her dad she once said, ‘I don't want to bring my child into this world with her as a grandmother. She's a bitch from hell'." In May, Macca suggested marriage counselling in a last-ditch attempt to save their marriage, said our source. But she flatly refused. "She told him he was the problem and if he sorted himself out it would all be fine," said our source. "This was the last straw for Paul who started drinking heavily. Stella grew more and more concerned. "It was at this point Stella noticed Heather would carry a black Prada bag with her and Paul said she'd always leave it in the middle of the table. They now believe it had a tape recorder in it." Stella never saw them fighting — but did once walk in after they had a bust-up over Heather's spending. A source close to Stella said: "She told me Paul was close to tears. "Heather had been spending far too much on clothes and they had a huge row with Paul telling her to cut down. "She would buy bags of outfits and wear dresses only once. It was like she had won the lottery. Paul really loved her and would do anything for her but it was just take, take, take." The one good thing from the marriage collapse is that it has drawn the McCartneys together again as a family. Macca has seen much more of Linda's daughter Heather, 43, who stayed away from his Peasmarsh home throughout his new marriage. "It was a huge surprise for loads of staff when Heather turned up at the house to see her stepdad," said our source. "She'd not visited for four years. The same applies to Mary and James, his other kids. "Paul would have to go to see them rather than them coming home. In the last few months that's changed. They're united against Heather." Hehe, Heathering. Love it. Go get 'er, Stella! (Once your baby's arrived.)

    Looks like the camel's back finally broke! http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/story_pages/news/news1.shtml By James Desborough Shattered Paul McCartney plans to unleash damning evidence in his bitter divorce battle with Heather Mills. Hurt by her leaked court papers claiming he was a violent, drug-taking drunk, Macca has enough ammunition to destroy the beauty's lies — and prove that it was HER who was the violent nightmare in their four-year marriage. In our exclusive coverage, you can also read: PAUL'S LOYAL AIDE ON HEATHER'S 'LIES' HEATHER'S FATHER THINKS SHE'S 'MAD' For the first time since the showbiz divorce of the century started, one of Sir Paul's aides has broken ranks to tell the News of the World how Heather: SMASHED up chairs and threw ornaments at the singer in screaming rows at their Peasmarsh home. HURLED a bottle of ketchup at him during one blazing hour-long bust-up over dinner. RANTED at him constantly in front of staff, branding him "old man", and a "b*stard". SPAT out her chilling threat to ruin him in a car-park showdown, yelling: "I'm absolutely gonna take you to the cleaners." DEMANDED Sir Paul use his millions to buy a string of homes. LONGED to have her own chat show—and FANTASISED about becoming the new Posh. DESERTED bewildered Macca for weeks at a time leaving him to look after toddler Beatrice. The aide's revelations come as Macca's former loyal PR man Geoff Baker — sacked by the star because of his suspicions about Heather — also blasts holes through the blonde's accusations. Screaming Our insider — who does not want to be named — told us: "For Paul the gloves are really off now, and he's ready to trash her in court. "He refutes her lies and is is preparing to detail HER appalling behaviour. The staff have seen it all — and we reckon he's a saint for putting up with her as long as he did. "Paul spent millions of pounds on her — but she never appreciated it. She became like Andy from Little Britain —‘I want that one, I want that one — wherever she went. If he turned her down she just let rip at him." The aide said staff often witnessed fights between the two at the 64-year-old former Beatle's 160-acre estate in Sussex. They heard the couple screaming at each other, and furniture being wrecked in the living and dining rooms and kitchen from September 2003 — a month before Beatrice was born. Our source said: "It was Heather who caused all the rows by constantly nagging Paul, and they turned violent. Her face would go red with rage. "I have seen her slam doors in his face, and when he followed her into a room there would be crashing, banging and smashing. "You could hear what was happening, and it sounded like Heather was the one doing the attacking. Chairs were smashed as well as ornaments. Then the housekeeper would have to come in and clean up afterwards. "There was at least one of these a month and we'd all walk around with our tin hats on." Staff dubbed the most vicious fight the "ketchup battle" in September 2003. "One of the cleaners said it was like a tornado had hit the living room. Vegetarian food was all over the floor, lamps were smashed, crockery, cutlery and glasses were broken. "But on the wall there were the marks where a bottle of ketchup had been thrown and landed just behind where Paul usually sits. It must have just missed him. "They had to get special cleaners to clear up the mess. A very expensive carpet was ruined and had to be chucked out. "This argument was the most talked about, but not the last. Those cleaners visited the house at least five times a year from then on after big rows between them. "Paul always tried to keep his rows away from the staff, but you couldn't fail to hear Heather screaming. We all knew it was another humdinger and to keep our heads down." Macca's aides also witnessed a terrifying row in the car park close to their main home on the estate last summer. "After they pulled up in his Mercedes she leapt out of the car waving her hands at him and screaming, ‘If you wanna get rid of me, do you know how much it is gonna cost you? Do you know how much you stand to lose? I'm absolutely gonna take you to the cleaners'." Staff believe that was the row which brought home to Sir Paul what a mess he was in. They had known for a long time — and had themselves been on the rough end of her tongue too often. "She was called the Ice Queen behind her back," said the aide. "She was often rude to us. We all felt that she saw us as slaves." Slaving And she reckoned her husband wasn't slaving hard enough to make her a star. Once, when he tried to stop her haranguing him about her potential TV career at the swish Hilden Health Club in Rye, staff heard her rant: "You're an old man. "You b***tard, don't you care anymore? Don't you love me? I've given you a baby — is this how you repay me?" The source continued: "Many rows came out of Heather's hopes to make it big on TV. In summer 2004 she was even begging Paul to help her get her own chat show. "I remember her saying, ‘I want a chat show on my own, everyone else is doing it — why can't I have one?' Dozens of rows were fuelled by Heather's desire to turn her and rocker Paul into an older version of Posh and Becks. "Heather dreamt of living like the Beckhams. She wanted that showbiz lifestyle," said our source. "She desperately wanted to do photo shoots in glossy mags. She kept asking, ‘Why can't we do that. Why are they in there and we're not?'" She made up for what she saw as her lack of fame by trying to spend like a billionaire. In one heated phone call in March, Paul appealed to his wife to stop demanding he buy more homes, said our source. "He asked her, ‘How much have you got to have before enough is enough?'" Troublemaker Heather, 38, would leave the family home for weeks at a time after bitter bust-ups from the summer of 2004 — often going to her home in Brighton. "She'd just suddenly up sticks, jump in her Porsche and disappear. Then they didn't see each other for a week or even two and he was left with the baby. Two weeks was the longest she stayed away. "It was always up to Paul to make up, and get his wife back. While she was away he would always say they had a clash of diaries — but to us that was the codeword for they'd fallen out and she'd gone off." Paul would be left to look after Beatrice. "This is where we all think Heather shoots herself in the foot," said our source. "In her court papers she alleges Paul is a drunk and drug user, yet she's quite happy to leave the baby with him for a week while she goes off to America at short notice." Macca's aides believe Heather's divorce paper accusations were a move to prompt him into handing her a whopping payout. "When he saw those claims Paul was absolutely devastated," added the insider. "He's still in complete disbelief at what she's said and is going to fight her tooth and nail. "He's tried to call her but we're told she won't pick up the phone. It's crazy because we all expected an out of court settlement was close to being agreed. Now she's pushing for half of everything or holding out for £200m. "Paul wants this done and dusted, he wants this dealt with so he can get on with his life and back to normality. "He doesn't want a slagging match in court or in the media." However the confidante did claim Macca will bring up Mill's past as a porn model and hooker — revealed by the News of the World — in court. "Quite simply for Paul the gloves are well and truly off. He will bring up her past life and could take this divorce into a whole new direction." Paul's aide is confident his boss will prove himself innocent of Heather's claims. "She is living in the realms of fantasy. Many of us have known Paul for more than 20 years and he's not a violent human being. "I've never seen him drunk with Beatrice and if he has a spliff he becomes your best mate, rather than wants to kill you. "There are many members of his staff, band and entourage who will testify to that. Heather should be the one doing the worrying."
