Entertainment Update - 19th July 2010
JORDAN IS A FLOPSTAR
Jordan's bid to top the charts has failed miserably - reaching number 60. The model has sold only 3 thousand copies of 'Free to Love Again' - despite a weeks worth of TV and appearances plugging it. The chart blow came hours after she was booed by clubbers while performing the song - then suffered further when her backing track started to skip, showing that she wasn't singing live. It hasn't dented her confidence though, Jordan has already announced she wants to replace Cheryl Cole at the V festival, after the X Factor judge fell ill.
WORKAHOLIC KARREN ADMITS SHAMEFUL MISTAKE
Apprentice star Karren Brady is renowned as a workaholic - but even she has branded her return to work three days after giving birth as "shameful". The businesswoman said she thought her career would be in jeopardy otherwise. But in an interview with Hello! magazine she admits she made a mistake not to spend more time bonding with her daughter Sophia, who is now 14. Brady, said: When you're young and in a career, you don't think it will last a lifetime.
COLE
Cheryl Cole may be forced to film the 'judges houses' segment of the X Factor in Britain - as she could still be too sick to travel. The judges normally jet away to somewhere exotic to whittle down their finalists. Last year, Cheryl whittled down her finalists in Marrakech. However, as the star continues to recover at home after battling Malaria, it has become clear that producers may have to amend their plans.
INCEPTION - SLEEPER HIT
Leonardo DiCaprio and Christopher Nolan's "Inception" is anything but a sleeper as the thriller opened big with $60.4 million and a No. 1 finish at the weekend box office. The action tale about a team that sneaks into people's dreams is DiCaprio's biggest opening weekend, topping his previous best of $41.1 million for last winter's "Shutter Island." "Inception" falls far short of director Christopher Nolan's best, though. Nolan is the man who directed the Batman blockbuster "The Dark Knight," which opened over the same weekend two years ago with a record $158.4 million.
ROURKE TO PLAY GAY RUGBY ACE
Hollywood star Mickey Rourke is in talks to play his most challenging role yet - gay rugby star Gareth Thomas in a film of his life. The two met for dinner last week and talks have begun how to make a movie based of the life of Wale's most-capped rugby union international. Oscar nominated Rourke has been quoted in the past over how much he'd love to make a movie about rugby - but didn't have a suitable story until he met Gareth Thomas.
BILL MURRAY HOTLINE
Bill Murray says he's set up his own toll-free hotline where studio executives and agents can leave a message because he doesn't want to have to speak to them. The actor says if the message is "interesting" enough, he returns the call but otherwise he enjoys the hassle-free method of avoiding trivial business meetings.
TOY STORY
The long-awaited Toy Story 3 opens in UK cinemas today, more than a decade after the last movie. Buzz and Woody's latest adventures have already proved a massive draw at the US box office, and the film is expected to make millions here too.
