Abi Titmuss reveals the biggest secret of romance with Love Island Lee (wait for sex that is)

I've never had a longer one (wait for sex that is)

By Polly Graham

RAMPANT glamour girl Abi Titmuss last night made her most shocking confession yet—she resisted the urge for FIVE WHOLE WEEKS before finally bedding new love Lee Sharpe!

"It's the longest I've ever waited before sleeping with someone," admitted the blonde sex bomb.

"I tend to jump into bed a bit quickly with men. But being together on Celebrity Love Island with all the cameras meant we were forced to wait. And I'm so glad—it's made it much more exciting."

Speaking for the first time of how she found true romance with the former Manchester United and England ace on the ITV1 reality show, one-time nurse Abi revealed: "He's the best I've ever had and I'm totally loved-up. 

"We can't keep our hands off each other."

Passion

On love island Fiji Lee sweetly told a delighted Abi how he'd fallen for her big-time.

But the pair's most intimate acts were a shy snog and holding hands as they slept next to each other on single beds in the communal bedroom with the show's other contestants. 

And Abi came over strangely shy as she recalled the touching moment they finally gave in to all that pent-up passion in a London hotel—four days after returning to Britain.

She said: "It was much more explosive because we'd waited. And what makes it the best ever is that we're just so close. It's wonderful." 

In fact meeting Lee, 34, seems to have made bed-hopping Abi turn over a new leaf.

"Usually you meet someone in a bar, fancy them and end up having sex," she explained. "But I've never been in a situation like it was with Lee where we lived together for five weeks, sleeping next to each other but not WITH each other. 

"We really got to know each other before making love, which is brilliant.

"I hadn't had sex for two months so who wouldn't be gagging for it after all that time!

"The sex just keeps on improving."

Abi, 28, confessed she's truly in love for the first time since her five-year romance with former This Morning host John Leslie, although she has also dated Little Britain funnyman David Walliams and playboy Calum Best. 

Giggle

She said: "When Lee first said he was in love with me I didn't know what to do about it because it was on TV.

"I suddenly wanted it to be in private. I was dying to get off the island and be on our own."

The two stars decided to become a real couple on the plane back from Fiji. Now they spend virtually all their time together at Abi's London home.

"We're seeing as much of each other as we can," said Abi with a cheeky giggle. "And that's quite a bit!"

And what does Lee reckon to Abi's latest venture—as an erotic author of newly published sex book Ten Fantasies?

"It's just a bit of fun," said Abi. "Lee thinks it's great but he hasn't read them."

But he could just be the inspiration for some saucy stories in volume two...

"I'd like to have Lee dress up in his football kit," confessed Abi. "That's definitely a fantasy of mine.

"I've never been out with a footballer before but I've seen pictures of him playing and thought, ‘Phwoar!' I hope he surprises me one day."

Lady Gaga Movie Based on Maureen Callahan Book in Works

She's only 25 but it appears that superstar singer, dancer, songwriter and iconoclast Lady Gaga is having her life thus far turned into the subject of a movie. It's being reported widely on Oct. 6, 2016 that the project is almost a certainty, though it's hard to say where the original source came from.

And why not a film? Lady Gaga, born Stefani Germanotta in New York, may be young but, like other superstars such as 17-year-old Canadian singer Justin Bieber, she's crammed a great many experiences and a lot of living into her relatively few years on the planet.

Film Based on Life of Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga herself is not involved in the movie, to be called Fame Monster: The Lady Gaga Story and being written by Norman Snider, a Hollywood screenwriter who wrote the Kevin Spacey film Casino Jack and, among many other scripts, the TV movie about high-class prostitute Heidi Fleiss.

Of perhaps greater interest is the news the film will be based upon a book about Gaga called Poker Face: The Rise And Rise Of Lady Gaga, written by Maureen Callahan, who has written for 'MTV' and 'Spin' magazine. A major source for Callahan was David Ciemny, Gaga's tour manager for the first year plus of her rise to fame, and Ciemny's wife, a personal assistant to Lady Gaga.

Poker Face: The Rise and Fall of Lady Gaga came out in September of 2010 and was not an entirely flattering account of the pop star. There are accounts of Lady Gaga on crash diets and claims she had to be hospitalized numerous times in 2009 because of sweet food binges followed by stringent diets. There are allegations of her firing people for minor indiscretions and being unpredictable.

Lady Gaga Movie Rumors Started....

As for where the original source was from that broke the story, the Canadian daily newspaper, the National Post, said it was Billoboard.biz who broke it, but that site ran a story which said it was written by a staffer of The Hollywood Reporter (THR). However THR didn't include where the information they based their story on came from.

One thing sites said was the company which is pursuing the project is Lifetime, a U.S. television cable network that specializes in woman's programming. There has been speculation but no word on who might direct the film and who might play Lady Gaga.

No start date as yet.

Sir Paul McCartney weds American heiress Nancy Shevell in London

 Sir Paul McCartney wed American heiress Nancy Shevell at the Marylebone Registry Office in London, the same place the cute Beatle married Linda Eastman.

Sir Paul McCartney married Nancy Shevell, making her Lady McCartney, in a private ceremony on Sunday, October 9, 2011. The musician, who rose to fame as one of The Beatles in the 1960s, married the American heiress in a gathering attended by family members at the Marylebone Registry Office in London, England.

Barbara Walters Attends McCartney-Shevell Wedding

Barbara Walters, host of the ABC live talk show The View, is a second cousin of Nancy Shevell and was invited to the private ceremony in London. Walters flew to London for the wedding and shared some of the inside information on The View on October 11, 2011.

According to Barbara Walters, the ceremony at the registry office was attended by family members. Paul McCartney had the larger number of family members, so the event was dominated by his family, which included his children and eight grandchildren. Former Beatles band mate Ringo Starr, who is like a family member, attended the wedding along with his wife Barbara Bach.

A throng of reporters gathered outside the Marylebone Registry Office to catch pictures of the couple, but they were not allowed inside. The only photographer allowed inside was McCartney's daughter Mary, who is a professional photographer. The photographs of the wedding are to be kept private for the family, according to Walters.

Nancy Shevell's Wedding Dress Designed by Stella McCartney

McCartney's daughter, noted fashion designer Stella McCartney, designed the wedding dress for Nancy Shevell. The dress design was an updated version of the wedding dress worn by the Duchess of Windsor Wallis Simpson, for her 1937 wedding to Prince Edward, Duke of Windsor. King Edward of England abdicated the throne to marry the woman he loved.

The dress was a white silk sheath with button detailing down the front. Stella McCartney also designed the outfits worn by her father and her half sister Beatrice. who was a bridesmaid. Beatrice is McCartney's 7 year old daughter from his marriage to Heather Mills, which was his second marriage.

 

Paul McCartney and Nancy Shevell Wed

According to UK Telegraph, the guests at the wedding reception included Ringo Starr and his wife, Barbara Bach, 1960s supermodel Twiggy and her husband, Leigh Lawson, Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood, artist Peter Blake and George Harrison's widow Olivia Harrison.. George Harrison was recently featured in a HBO film, George Harrison: Living in a Material World. George Harrison the Beatles and Beyond in Living in a Material World

The McCartney-Shevell wedding was held at the Marylebone Registry Office, the very same place that McCartney married his first wife, Linda Eastman, in 1969. The marriage of the musician dubbed The Cute Beatle broke the hearts of young women around the world. Lady Linda McCartney, who played in the band Wings, passed away in 1998 from breast cancer. The McCartneys had four children; Heather, Mary, Stella and James.

The wedding date was poignant because it would have been the 71st birthday of Beatles band mate John Lennon, who was murdered in New York in 1980. Lennon's widow, Yoko Ono, was not able to attend the wedding because she was at a ceremony for Lennon in Iceland.

Paul McCartney and Nancy Shevell have been in a relationship since 2007. The couple met in the Hamptons, where they each owned properties. It is rumored that Shevell's cousin Barbara Walters played matchmaker for the couple.

 

George Harrison the Beatles and Beyond Living in a Material World

 "George Harrison: Living in a Material World" is a film by Martin Scorsese about the early days of The Beatles and Harrison's life and spiritual journey.

George Harrison: Living in the Material World is a documentary film by Martin Scorsese that premiered on HBO on October 5-6, 2011. The film is a look at the mysterious musician who rose to mega-fame in the 1960s with The Beatles and went on to a solo career and a lifelong spiritual journey.

The life and music of George Harrison is explored in this HBO film that includes first person reports by some of the people closest to Harrison. The film includes interviews with Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton, Olivia Harrison, Patti Boyd, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, George Martin, Paul McCartney, Yoko Ono, Tom Petty, Phil Spector and Jackie Stewart. Sir Paul McCartney Marries American Heiress Nancy Shevell in London

The film opens with scenes of from the devastation of World War II in England, the world that George Harrison was born into in 1943. Harrison was born in Liverpool, where he met Paul McCartney and John Lennon as teenagers and The Beatles were formed.

The Beatles' history is much storied, but with the personal interviews with key people close to Harrison, the film gives the story behind the scenes, as the people that Harrison grew up, worked with and played with shared their insights about the musician.

George Harrison

George Harrison was known as the quiet Beatle, but still waters ran deep. Harrison himself appeared in a clip, talking about the material wealth The Beatles achieved at a young age, noting that after they attained wealth they realized that there was more to life. Harrison went on a spiritual quest that lasted for the rest of his life.

The story of the multi-faceted performer included his drug usage. Eric Clapton talked about his attraction for Harrison's wife, Patti Boyd, and how he approached Harrison to tell him that he wanted his wife. Patti Boyd left George Harrison and married Eric Clapton.

The film emphasized the importance of Harrison's spiritual life, his friend Ravi Shankar, the Concert of Bangladesh at Madison Square Garden in 1971 and George's love of meditation and chanting mantras.

The film is in two parts. The first part covers Harrison and The Beatles as young men and their rise to fame. The second part starts with the breakup of The Beatles, with the song Let it Be.

Martin Scorsese

Filmmaker Martin Scorsese stated, "I will never forget the first time I heard "All Things Must Pass," the overwhelming feeling of taking in that all glorious music for the first time. It was like walking into a cathedral. George was making spiritually awake music – we all heard and felt it – and I think that was the reason that he came to occupy a very special place in our lives. "

Olivia Harrison

Olivia and George Harrison were married from 1978 - 2001, when he died of cancer at the age of 57. They had one son, Dhani, who was interviewed in the film.

Olivia Harrison recounted in gruesome detail the attack on her husband in 1999, by a man who broke into their home. Harrison had a long battle with cancer, but the disease was not dwelled on in the film.

The most poignant portion of the film was at the end, when Olivia Harrison talked about the death of her husband. She described the light that filled the room as Harrison passed away.

Olivia Harrison, who was a co-producer of the film, stated, “Martin Scorsese's intuition towards George was evident the first time we met to discuss this project. He sensed what George was about: his music, his strong beliefs, his art, his place in the Beatles' story and his extraordinary life afterwards. Marty''s wonderful film has found all of that and more."

 

Lindsay Lohan from Jail to Playboy for Mean Girls Actress

Lindsay Lohan rose to fame as a teen actress, but is now more famous for her turbulent life and legal woes. Fresh out of jail, Lohan will appear in Playboy.

Lindsay Lohan may be more famous for her lifestyle and legal woes than as an actress. Lohan served approximately four hours of a 30 day sentence and was released from jail on November 7, 2011. Now that she is out of jail, the big news is that Lohan posed for Playboy, in the magazine issue being released before the end of the year.

Lindsay Lohan Jail and Probation

Lindsay Lohan has struggled with the requirements of probation on her 2007 DUI conviction. While still on probation, the wayward actress entered a guilty plea on the charge of stealing a diamond necklace and was sentenced to probation, counseling and community service. Unfortunately, Lohan seemed not to take the probation terms seriously because she got sloppy about adhering to the terms of her probation and ended up back in court.

Judge Stephanie Sautner sentenced Lohan to 30 days in jail in a hearing on November 2, 2011, which was televised live on HLN cable television. The 30 day sentence was a portion of a total 300 day sentence, which Lohan will have to serve if she does not adhere to the judge's detailed requirements for community service and counseling.. The Women's Community Center did not want Lohan back because she set a bad example for the women, according to the judge. Lohan will serve her community service at the Los Angeles County Morgue.

Lohan's 30 day sentence was reduced to four hours, due to overcrowding in the jail system. Lohan is not considered a violent offender, so her actual time served was minimal. This was Lohan's fifth jail sentence since being arrested twice for drunken driving in 2007.

Lindsay Lohan and Playboy

Lohan posed for Playboy before her recent jail sentence. The December/January issue featuring Lohan, in classic Marilyn Monroe style poses, will be released by the end of the year. Hugh Hefner rejected the first photos because they were not the style he wanted and a second photo shoot was required by Hefner. Whoopi Goldberg, a friend of Hugh Hefner's, said that Hefner called the photo shoot classy, when the subject was discussed on The View on November 8, 2011.

The Playboy spread is not Lohan's first experience in posing nude. The actress posed as Marilyn Monroe in a photo shoot for the New York Magazine in 2008. Lohan and photographer Bert Stern revisited a photo shoot that Stern conducted with Marilyn Monroe at the famed Bel Aire Hotel in Beverly Hills in 1962. Lohan was able to capture the Marilyn Monroe poses, but she lacked the soft vulnerability and sexuality of the Hollywood icon. Marilyn Monroe died just six weeks after the original photo shoot

Lindsay Lohan Movie Career

Lindsay Lohan is best known for the movies Parent Trap (1998), Freaky Friday (2004) and Mean Girls (2006). The actress also appeared in The Prairie Home Companion (2006) and Georgia Rules (2007).

Lohan was set to star in a film about 1970s porn star Linda Lovelace, but lost out on the project. She was announced to appear in Gotti, a film about gangster John Gotti starring John Travolta, but the project is reportedly stalled due to lack of financing.

The Rises and Falls of Lindsay Lohan

They are teens and they are rich. Justin Bieber leads them, said to have made $53 million in the last year. Wow. And at 10, Jaden Smith also has millions.

People Magazine came out with its richest Hollywood teen list in their issue last week and it won't come as a surprise that 17-year-old Justin Bieber and 18-year-old Miley Cyrus top the list. It has also been noted on internet sites on Sunday August 14th 2011 that Bieber and Selena Gomez are the richest teen couple in Hollywood.

That last observation shows pop-media has a rather firm grasp of the obvious. Given that Mr. Bieber is reported to have made $53 million in the past year he could go out with a teen who works part-time at a local Malibu mall and they would be the richest teen couple in Hollywood. Bieber does contribute to charity to a large degree but at the end of the day 53 million bucks in a year is a princely sum.

Gomez, who continues to star in The Wizards of Waverly Place, make movies - Monte Carlo was released in July - and is making inroads as a singer, is said to have made what by comparison is a somewhat paltry $5.5 million. For paltry, and for a 19-year-old, not too shabby a paycheck.

Rich Miley Cyrus, Rich Smith and Smith

The magazine says Cyrus made $48 million with concerts, DVD's and TV, though some reports say she earned much less. Other notable teens to hit the list - how could you not be notable if you're a teen making millions a year? - include 19-year-old Taylor Lautner, who raked in somewhere around 16 million, much of it for Twilight. Angus T. Jones, like Bieber 17, is said to be making $300,000 an episode on Two and a Half Men and when they're not being interrupted by Charlie Sheen they make 22 episodes a year. You do the math.

Some younger rich teens include siblings Jaden and Willow Smith, whose parents are fabulously rich Hollywood types already but who, at 13 and 10 respectively, felt they should start earning a few millions on their own. Jaden made, reports say, $5 million, much of it coming from The Karate Kid and his appearance in the Bieber video of Never Say Never and film of the same name.

His sis made lots from her hit song Whip My Hair. And yes, at 10 she's not a teen and so would likely be the richest Hollywood pre-teen with her reported 4 million in earnings over the past year. And another pair of siblings, actors Dakota and Elle Fanning, are making millions, too. Four million for Dakota inBreaking Dawn and $1.5 million for Elle, 13, in Super 8.

Justin Bieber: Never Say Never

Of late Bieber, who recently invented an alter-ego Derek Bieber (interviewed here on Suite 101) has made most of his money through the fabulous success of Justin BIeber: Never Say Never, a hit all over North America and other parts of the world. And though he's giving proceeds of his fragrance for women called 'Someday' to charity, he continues to rake money in there.

All of the touring? The CD and album sales? The Justin Bieber pajamas and dolls? Yeah, there'd be a buck of two for all that stuff, and for other sources of income. To add to it all he's working on the release of a new album which is guarenteed to be a strong seller.

The rich, as they say (in this case teenage rich) just keep getting richer.
