Lindsay Lohan's father Michael is too scared to watch his daughter's new movie - after storming out of a screening of her last film Georgia Rule when she appeared in a sex scene.

Estranged dad Michael can't bear to watch the 21-year-old in love scenes and fears I Know Who Killed Me will leave him fleeing the movie theatre in tears.

He tells In Touch magazine, "I go to every one of her movies. I had to leave Georgia Rule - during a couple of scenes I ran out of the theater.

"I don't want to see her in a sexual context; even if she's acting, she's my daughter first. And I Know Who Loved Me (sic) - I don't even know if I'll go to see that. If someone goes, and warns me ahead of time, 'Michael, get out of the theater - something's coming up,' then I will."

Catherine Zeta-Jones is disappointed she finds it impossible to master the art of boiling an egg.

The Welsh actress plays a chef in new restaurant-based romantic comedy No Reservations, but insists she's not much use in the kitchen in real life.

She says, "You know, I still can't boil an egg. I never get it runny enough if I want it runny, and I never get it hard-boiled enough before it explodes.

"But I can make you (Italian dessert) tiramisu anytime you want. Cheese on toast is always good too."

Jennifer Aniston's ex-boyfriend Paul Sculfor was overwhelmed by her celebrity status, says his former lover Lady Victoria Hervey.

British-born model Sculfor, who recently split from Aniston following a two-month fling, struggled to cope with the attention surrounding their relationship, claims Hervey.

Hervey told Britain's Hello! magazine: "He was given the keys to her house and at one point had to spend a week without leaving it as up to 50 paparazzi at a time were outside waiting to get a picture of the two of them together.

"We're good friends and I was one of the first people he told about Jennifer. He said she made him happy but he was having to keep under the radar. One minute he's living a normal life and the next he's over every magazine and television channel in America.

"He realized the pressure of fame - it's something you want until you actually get it."

Sarah Jessica Parker claims her knees are "shot" from constantly wearing high heels in 'Sex and the City'.

The 42-year-old actress, who starred in the hit US TV show as columnist and fashionista Carrie Bradshaw for six years, claims teetering around in her character's trademark stiletto heels has taken its toll on her body.

She told Elle magazine: "I used to spend 18 to 20 hours a day filming in heels and now I spend a much shorter day in them and I'm thinking, 'Oww!'

"I've totally destroyed my body by running and dancing in heels. My knees are shot."

Kanye West claims only white people use the word "bling".

The 'Gold Digger' rapper insists the slang term is now passé and using it makes people look old fashioned.

Kanye told Complex magazine: "Only white people and older black people say 'bling' now. If a white person uses slang too early, then that makes them look like a wigger. But if black people use slang too late, then it makes them look like a wigger."

Kanye celebrated his 30th birthday at New York's Tenjune nightclub in June, where he was presented with a huge cake incorrectly emblazoned with the name "Kayne".

Other guests who helped celebrate the hip-hop star's landmark birthday included Mariah Carey, Rihanna, Ashlee Simpson and her boyfriend Pete Wentz.

As the celebrations began, Kanye said: "I'm in my 20s as we speak right now, but at midnight, I'll be 30. I'm already 30 in Japan and London and everywhere else."

Heidi Klum is not very pleased about being neighbors with the Beckhams in LA.

The supermodel says America's new favorite couple have brought media chaos to Hollywood Hills since they moved there last month.

Heidi, who lives with husband Seal and their children described the madness on the Tonight Show With Jay Leno.

"You couldn't even drive by because the paparazzi were hanging out, waiting for them to leave the house," she said "It's kind of a pain."
