Chris Martin snubbed an aftershow party following a Coldplay charity gig on Monday night, and instead chose to dine with a group of homeless singers!


The band played a show at the Royal Court Theatre in Liverpool, England to raise awareness of men and women living on the streets in the UK.

They performed with a choir made up of the homeless - and Martin chose to eat with them after the concert rather than attend the official aftershow meal.

A source tells the Daily Star:

"Chris had a load of homeless people singing in a choir for his gig and he thought they were so amazing he wanted to hang out with them after.

"He went backstage, snubbed his celeb dinner and ordered 12 giant pizzas and 25 bags of chips for them all to eat. His security were desperately trying to get him to leave and go back to his dressing room, but he was having none of it."


Coldplay might not be everyone's cup of tea, but Chris Martin definitely has a heart of gold!

Arquette Is NOT Having A Nervous Breakdown!

'Scream' star David Arquette has backtracked over his comments suggesting his separation from wife Courtney Cox has prompted a nervous breakdown - insisting it was "a joke"!


The couple revealed in October 2010 they had decided to take a break after 11 years of marriage, and 'Cougar Town' star Cox has kept a dignified silence since their trial separation began. However, Arquette went public to reveal their lack of bedroom action and how the actress grew tired of his immaturity, and he opened up further on Howard Stern's radio show on Wednesday this week.

When asked by the shock jock if he's "having a nervous breakdown", Arquette replied:

"I believe so."


He confessed he had been drinking heavily since his marriage revelation and had "embarrassed" himself at a Hollywood party after mistaking Tom Cruise for someone else. I'm sure he's not the only one!

But despite his own claims, Arquette has taken to his Twitter page to insist he is NOT experiencing a meltdown.

He writes:

"It is being reported that I'm having a Nervous Breakdown. I assure you am not. This stemmed from a joke I made.

"I always speak my mind and I really don't care what people that don't know me may say. I'm a good person with a huge heart. I thank those that have been on my side during this rough time."


Hurley "Bored" With Marriage Speculation!

Elizabeth Hurley is apparently "bored" of the fuss surrounding her separation from husband Arun Nayer, and insists rumours she is preparing to file for divorce and move to Australia are untrue!


The pair's relationship hit headlines in the UK last Sunday (12th Dececember 2010) when the News of the World reported the actress had spent two nights at a London hotel with cricket star Shane Warne the week before (w/c 6th December 2010).

The actress/model has been at the centre of speculation that she is set to rush through a divorce and is planning to keep all of her own money. There have also been rumours the beauty is keen to move to Warne's native Australia to be closer to her alleged new love interest.

But Hurley has taken to her Twitter page to blast the reports, revealing she has taken no steps towards divorce and is staying in the UK!

She writes:

"Bored now of silly speculations: no one is divorcing anyone yet, no one is fighting over money & I have no plans to go to Australia. Enough!"


And the gossip has obviously been getting to Hurley - she had to abandon her favourite alcoholic beverage of vodka, lime and soda after running out of the citrus fruit because she's too tired to shop! *gasp!*

She adds:

"An all time low; tonight's VLS is actually a VTS. No limes & too slothful to shop. T for tangerine."


Gawd bless ya, Liz!

British rocker Pete Doherty is hoping to waltz into his first acting role, and he's taking dance lessons in preparation for filming his movie debut later this month!


The Babyshambles and Libertines musician is set to star alongside actress Charlotte Gainsbourg in French production 'Confession d'un Enfant du Siecle', about the life of 19th century writer Alfred de Musset. And to get himself into character, Doherty is learning how to dance.

On his blog, he writes:

"My character must display natural grace and poise - as was expected of a young aristocrat and dandy of 1830's French society.

"I was going to film the lesson, but it didn't seem appropriate. The teacher was just as I had imagined - straight backed, horsewhip in hand, and a brutal perfectionist."


Nice to see he's broadening his skills!
