We are completely devastated that Idris Elba will not be taking on the the role of James Bond in the upcoming film.

The Luther star recently confirmed his absence from the 007 film.

We can only guess whether his rejection of the role has any correlation with director Danny Boyle’s recent exit from the film.

Just three months before filming was scheduled to start, the Oscar-winning filmmaker suddenly stepped down from his director role.

A post from the James Bond official Twitter account said: “Michael G. Wilson, Barbara Broccoli and Daniel Craig today announced that due to creative differences Danny Boyle has decided to no longer direct Bond 25.”

Good Morning Britain reporter Divya Kohli spotted Idris at the premiere of his directed film Yardie and eagerly asked him to confirm rumours of his role in the upcoming film.

The reporter asked if he was ‘looking at the next 007’, to which Idris simplu replied, ‘No' , without any further explanation.

Perhaps, The Wire actor could not imagine a 007 film without the visionary Danny Boyle’s involvement.

Or has this hesitation been brewing in Idris’ mind for a while now?

In an interview with The New York Times in October, the talented actor confessed his worries about only being cast because he was black.

“It’s interesting that the James Bond thing continues to go. I think it’s more about, we just want to have a black guy play James Bond rather than Idris Elba the actor play James Bond. That’s the part that I’m like, ‘Ugh, come on,’” he revealed.

Either way, it seems we have to say goodbye to our hopes of seeing Idris play the becoming role of the suave, skilled intelligence officer.

So, who does that leave in the 007 line-up? Rumours continue to mill around  a few other male actors, including Aidan Turner, James Norton, and Tom Hardy.

Chloe Moretz and Brooklyn Beckham have never strayed far form the headlines. Their on-again off-again relationship has been the subject of constant speculation, but after Brooklyn was recently snapped getting up close and personal with model Lexi Wood, it looks like things could all be over for the celebrity couple. 

The pair are yet to officially announce the split, but judging by Chloe's latest social media updates, things did not end on a good note. 

The 21-year-old actress took to Instagram to share a (now deleted) screenshot, revealing she was listening to Cardi B's new break-up anthem Be Careful. 

For those of you not familiar with the modern masterpiece, the track tells the story of a woman who suspects her boyfriend is cheating on her, leading fans to believe that Brooklyn had been unfaithful. 

Of course, this is just speculation and no one actually knows whether the cosy snaps were taken before or after the split. But one thing's for sure – he didn't waste any time moving on. 

 

Never Stop Smiling, I Love You, Happy Birthday Brooklyn 

A post shared by Chloe Grace Moretz (@chloegmoretz) on

The last public interaction between the pair came only one month ago when Chloe posted a candid photo of her then-boyfriend, along with the caption: "Never Stop Smiling, I Love You, Happy Birthday Brooklyn." 

Needless to say, fans are absolutly furious about the rumours, with many taking to Twitter to express their disappointment.

Okay, everyone remain calm, but rumour has it Oreo are adding a Nutella-style flavour to its popular biscuit range.

While the news has yet to be confirmed, an image showing the packaging for the limited edition product has surfaced online – and sweet-lovers around the world are beyond excited.

The photo began circulating after it appeared on the junkbanter Instagram, (a page devoted to exciting flavours and limited edition confectionery products), along with the caption:

“They can’t call them Nutella Oreos, but I can! Nutella Oreos are on the horizon. Timeframe unknown. This is not a joke. The photo quality is.”

Needles to say, people went wild at the thoughts of this glorious combination, with one user commenting: “OK is this for real cause my son and I want to know if I have to change career and become a thief, especially since I live in the only place on earth where we can't get anything good lol.”

Another wrote: “AHHHHHH!!!!! This is the best thing I have seen all year!”

If it's true, the flavour creators at Oreo deserve a massive raise – especially seeing as they recently revealed a new chocolate brownie flavour after fans were asked to tweet what their dream Oreo combination using the hashtag #myOREOCreation.

Fingers crossed these bad boys will be hitting our shelves sooner rather than later!

Grace Davies reduced Nicole Scherzinger to tears when she performed self-penned track, Roots, at her first X Factor audition, which aired on Saturday.

The 20-year-old left the four judges stunned by her heartfelt performance, and it came as no surprise to viewers that the talented young singer was rushed directly through to the next stage of the competition.

But as the first episode of the 14th season drew to a close over the weekend, rumours had already begun circulating that suggested Grace wasn't the struggling artist she made herself out to be.

With reports that she had previously performed with Olly Murs to whispers she had a number of connections in the music industy, Grace's claims that she desperately needed a break began to ring a little hollow.

However, it looks like Grace is all too aware how badly rumours can effect your chances in a show like the X Factor, so she wasted no time clarifying the rumours during a TV appearance this morning.

Speaking with Lorraine Kelly, Grace insisted that the rumours were unfounded, and the reports were blown out of proportion.

"I’ve never had a record deal. When I was 18 I self-released an EP. I wrote it all when I was 16 and 17 and I just organised a band and recorded it in my local recording studio," Grace told Lorraine.

‘I didn’t have a management, I didn’t have a label, I just stuck it up on the internet and hoped that friends and family would share it. I’ve never been signed to a record label, I’m still not, that’s why I’m on the show."

We wonder if that's enough to shut down the rumours…

Last week, Ed Sheeran fans were left confused after Russell Crowe referred to Ed's girlfriend Cherry as his financeé during an interview.

Had he secretly proposed?

Since when are Ed and Russell such good friends?

So many unanswered questions. 

Well, Ed has finally addressed the speculation, revealing that Russell must have just ''assumed'' that he and Cherry were planning to get married.

During an interview with Sydney's Nova969 he explained, ''You know, he's only met Cherry once and I didn't introduce her.''

''I didn't say anything. I think he just assumed. But no, we're not engaged.''

Ed has previously admitted he and Cherry are "on the path" to marriage but they have no plans to tie the knot just yet.

He also revealed that Russel emailed him to apologise for the slip up, but we can't imagine he was too happy about the situation. 

The singer is notoriously private when it comes to sharing details about his personal life with the media.

He'd much rather write a hit song about it instead.

With so much going on in his personal life, it can be difficult to remember that Liam Payne is a recording artist.

But earlier this month the singer sent Twitter into a state of mass confusion after signing his first solo record deal with American label Republic Records.

Already that collaboration seems to be baring fruit as yesterday the 23-year-old pop star took to Instagram to tease his first single.

The unnamed track includes NSF One Direction lyrics like “I wanna make love to you, be onto you, so hard for you” and “all these other b*tches here be tripping, the way you walk in is so different, I just wanna make it with you”.

So far fans have expressed mixed feelings towards the preview with many taking to social media to share their disappointment with the teaser.

“I want to support Liam Payne but his new song snippet sound awful.  The autotune, the lyrics…Just…NO (sic),” wrote one.

While another said: “Why does the new Liam Payne song sound like a male iteration of Britney Spears.  Girl that auto tune hurts.”

Meanwhile others have speculated that the song is about Cheryl, with some going as far as to suggest that it remarks on the star’s rumoured pregnancy.

Many believe the lines “All the best things take a little time, take a little time baby.  This ain’t nothing, take a little time baby” strongly hint that the couple are expecting their first child.

With such a short clip to work with, it remains unclear as to whether or not Liam is singing an innocent pop song or referencing his BAE's secret pregnancy.

But hopefully if the rest of the track gets released, all will become clear.

She’s publicly denied cheating with Geordie Shore’s Scotty T, but it seems Katie Price’s marriage hasn’t escaped the effects of the rumours.

Following the publication of photos of the model emerging from the reality star’s car, the Loose Women panellist opted to take some time away from the spotlight to focus on her relationship.

But today reports suggest that the move may not be enough to save Katie's marriage as her husband Kieran Hayler is said to have been left feeling “emasculated” by the drama.

 

Loved @loosewomen today but taking few weeks off to spend time with hubby and kids holidays

According to a Now Magazine source, the former stripper is contemplating leaving the mother of five.

“Kieran can't handle any more humiliation,” claimed the source.  “Katie’s ditched the woman he married and replaced her with Jordan.”

“Stripping off, baring her boobs, nights out, all the while he’s sat at home looking after the kids and the house.”

“The pictures of her with Scotty just add to the problems for Kieran.  He confronted her, accusing her of double standards and blatantly flirting.”

“He screamed, ‘I'm not scared of leaving you, just try me!’”

“He's ready to pack his bags if she keeps pushing him like this.  He feels like he can't live up to the marriage she had with Pete.”

 

So proud of my hubby on his horse he is getting so good

Despite the source’s claims, Katie took to Instagram over the weekend to clarify that she and Kieran “are happily married with no problems”.

The 38-year-old previously used Twitter to deny that she had cheated with Scotty.

Ahh the X Factor – the only talent hunt on TV where the judges are guaranteed to be more dramatic than the contestants.

While you might think reintroducing the winning trio of Nicole Scherzinger, Louis Walsh and Sharon Osbourne to the judging panel would mean smooth sailing for the series, that doesn't necessarily mean Louis will be holding his tongue when it comes to his fellow judges.

In an interview with The Daily Star, the Mayo man discussed Sharon's recently rumoured cosmetic surgery touch-up and said: "She is looking really well. She has got a new face. It’s her third face and it is the best one yet."

“She has had a bit of work done," he claimed, before saying: "I have great fun with her and she does not mind me saying things like that.”  Sounds like Mrs O must be very understanding!

Being a little kinder towards Nicole Scherzinger, Louis said: “Nicole is the best judge. Getting Sharon back was something different, I think. That was a tough job as her and Simon don’t always see eye to eye.”

It seems Louis is in a confessional mood these days as last month he hit out at former X Factor judge Cheryl when he claimed that Nadine Coyle was the only Girls Aloud member that could actually sing.

We can't wait to hear what he comes out with next.

In an open letter published on the Huffington Post website, Jennifer Aniston put to bed any speculation that she might be pregnant.

Titled "For The Record", Jennifer began by saying that her decision to speak had more to do with starting a conversation rather than actually dismissing the rumours.

“Let me start by saying that addressing gossip is something I have never done.  I don’t like to give energy to the business of lies, but I wanted to participate in a larger conversation that has already begun and needs to continue.”

Jennifer hit the headlines after a picture of her in a swimsuit lead some to believe she may be pregnant.

“For the record, I am not pregnant. What I am is fed up.

“I’m fed up with the sport-like scrutiny and body shaming that occurs daily under the guise of ‘journalism’ the ‘First Amendment’ and ‘celebrity news’.”

The 47-year-old actress went on to describe her relationship with the media and the scrutiny she’s been victim to.

“Every day my husband and I are harassed by dozens of aggressive photographers staked outside our home who will go to shocking lengths to obtain any kind of photo.

“This past month in particular has illuminated for me how much we define a woman’s value based on her marital and maternal status.

“The sheer amount of resources being spent right now by press trying to simply uncover whether or not I am pregnant (for the bajillionth time… but who’s counting) points to the perpetuation of this notion that women are somehow incomplete, unsuccessful, or unhappy if they’re not married with children. “

Jennifer has been in the public eye for over 20 years and has faced ridiculous rumours and embarrassment in the media.

However, this is one woman who is not letting the headlines define her life.

“We are complete with or without a mate, with or without a child.

“That decision is ours and ours alone. Let’s make that decision for ourselves and for the young women in this world who look to us as examples.

“We don’t need to be married or mothers to be complete. We get to determine our own ‘happily ever after’ for ourselves.

Saying all this, Jennifer still does not rule out having children rather admits she is not actively trying.

“I have grown tired of being part of this narrative. Yes, I may become a mother someday, and since I’m laying it all out there, if I ever do, I will be the first to let you know.”

It appears Calvin Harris has a very strong rebound game.

When the pictures of his ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift, kissing British actor Tom Hiddleston surfaced, the DJ got back up on his feet and and made sure pictures of him dancing with hot girls were captured.

However, even though he's said since that he'll never date another celebrity, he was spotted giving X Factor judge Nicole Scherzinger a lift home from a London night club.

The pair partied together over the weekend, however, sources tell TMZ that he just bumped into her on the night and offered her and her friends a lift home. What a gentleman!

It must have been a long night though, as it was bright when the DJ's car left Nicole to her door.

They would make such a hot couple, though, right?

In the words of Avril Lavigne, why do you have to go and make things so complicated?

That's what fans are thinking at the moment as rumours arise that Avril is getting back with her ex-husband Chad Kroeger.

The 31-year-old shared a picture of the pair looking cosy in the recording studio, and many fans flocked to tell her they wish she was back together with her former partner.

One Instagram user said, "Please stay together," while another wrote, "You're my last hope on love." Another one simply said, "CHAVRIL."

Avril has been bust lately recording her sixth studio album, which will be the first bit of music she's produced in three years. 

Now, the picture isn't proof of a romantic reconciliation and Avril is known to stay close to her exes – like she did with Sum 41's Deryck Whibley whom she divorced in 2009 – but fans of the couple are hoping this is the start of something new.

Well, at least someone in Little Mix seems to be happy. 

While her band mates Jesy and Perrie seem to be going through relationship HELL, Jade Thirlwall seems to be having the time of her life being single. 

While Jade recently made it clear that she has a pretty huge crush on Nick Jonas (who can blame her?), reports have been circulating that little Jade is actually dating a pop star closer to home. 

The 22-year-old has been linked to Connor Ball, bassist for popular British boy band, The Vamps. 

According to The Sun, the 19-year-old musician commented that himself and Jade were enjoying "good hangs" at the moment. 

Yes Connor, we all know what that means, 

Jade, who has been previously linked to Niall Horan, has remained tightlipped on the relationship but invited the handsome musician to see Little Mix perform at the launch of their new album, Get Weird

However, it seems Jade might have a bit of love triangle on her hands, as her celeb crush Nick Jonas recently admitted the attraction is mutual.

Earlier this month, Nick was outed on BBC Radio 1 for liking pictures on Instagram of the Little Mix star. 

And so the plot thickens!  All we can say is… Jade we 'salute' you.
