Brown in Trouble, Heigl’s Demands, Ryder’s Depression, & More…

May 28th, 2009

Here’s the Scoop….

Singing sensation Susan Boyle has been dubbed “overrated” by
pop star Lily Allen.

Susan has become a global sensation since she first appeared
on reality TV show “Britain’s Got Talent” and captivated
judges Simon Cowell and Piers Morgan with her powerful voice.

But Lily isn’t impressed and is backing Susan’s big rival,
12-year-old Shaheen Jarfagholi, to triumph, according to
Access Hollywood.

Lily wrote on her Twitter account, “i thought her timing was
off, no control, and i don’t think she has an amazing voice.’

“yes, she can sing, but it’s not about talent with her is it?,”
Lily wrote.

“she seems like a lovely lady but if its about talent,that
Shaheen kid should win.

What do you think?…
Is Susan a singing sensation or do you consider her overrated?

Now Lets get to the nooz!

Daniel Craig and Hugh Jackman Broadway bound…

Together again for the first time, Hugh Jackman and Daniel
Craig on stage.

Nothing has been officially confirmed but two of Hollywood’s
reigning hunks may be paired next fall on Broadway in “A
Steady Rain,” a two-character drama by Keith Huff.

Hugh and Daniel are set to star in the play about two Chicago
policemen, friends since childhood, whose lives take divergent
paths after an unnerving incident.

“A Steady Rain” was a big hit in Chicago in September 2007
at a small theater and transferred the following year to
another venue for a commercial run.

Huff, who has a master’s from the University of Iowa’s
Playwright’s Workshop has extensive regional theater credits.
“A Steady Rain” would be his Broadway debut. A telephone call
to his agent, John Buzzetti, seeking confirmation of the
production, was not returned.

“A Steady Rain” would also be the New York stage debut for
Daniel, who skyrocketed to film stardom as the latest
cinematic James Bond. Hugh, the movies’ Wolverine from all
the “X-Men” movies, proved to be a major Broadway box-office
draw five years ago, playing entertainer Peter Allen in the
musical “The Boy from Oz.”

In a video posted in January on YouTube, Huff talked about
casting “A Steady Rain” with famous actors. The playwright
told Chicago-based writer Mark Bazer: “I think it would be
kind of cool to see Daniel Craig do it. My wife would be
happy.”

Man Alleges Assault by Chris Brown’s Bodyguard….

Chris Brown is facing more legal trouble, this time from
a man who claims he was beaten up by the singer’s bodyguard.

Robert Rosen is suing Chris, for personal injury, alleging
he was roughed up after taking a snapshot of Chris at a Los
Angeles fitness club on March 13, according to the lawsuit
filed in L.A. Superior Court.

Robert claims he was chased by the bodyguard, who yelled
at him after taking the picture while Chris was playing
basketball, and attempted to run away, but an employee of
L.A. Fitness Club allegedly “tried to block Robert’s exit
and grabbed his clothing and body.”

Robert broke free but then fell down a flight of stairs,
the lawsuit says. The bodyguard then allegedly “picked
Robert up by his shorts, and physically assaulted him,”
according to the lawsuit. Robert adds he was “severely
injured and disabled, both internally and externally,”
claims he was falsely imprisoned, and is seeking damages
covering his medical bills and emotional distress.

Robert, who’s also suing the fitness club for negligence
and other claims, argues its employees did not adequately
protect him.

Robert’s lawyer, Mark Geragos, says, “This is a specious
and frivolous lawsuit by one of the paparazzi seeking
publicity and a payday. He’s done this before and lost.
We will vigorously defend against this.”

An L.A. Fitness Club manager at the gym at issue had
no comment.

Heigl Rep Shoots Down Salary Demand Rumors…

Katherine Heigl’s representative has lashed out at reports
that the actress was dropped from an upcoming A-list movie
ensemble due to her extortionate salary demands.

Katherine, who broke into movies with 2007 comedy hit
“Knocked Up,” was expected to join Hollywood superstars
Julia Roberts, Jennifer Garner and Anne Hathaway in
romantic comedy “Valentine’s Day,” due to hit screens
in 2011.

But according to online reports, Katherine was booted out
of the casting line-up after demanding payment of $3
million dollars, despite working for a maximum of 14 days.

A source close to the project tells New York gossip column
PageSix that “no other actors asked for nearly that amount.”

However, Katherine’s publicist refutes the rumors, insisting
it was the actress who decided not to take part in the film.

Katherine’s rep says, “The story is ludicrous. Early
negotiations are a daily occurrence in this business,
and just for clarification, Katherine walked away from
this project for multiple reasons.”

Ryder Battled Depression After Depp Split…

Actress Winona Ryder has opened up about the depression she
suffered after splitting up with ex-fiance Johnny Depp.

The break-up was Winona’s first brush with heartbreak, and
she admits she took it badly, despite it coinciding with
the peak of her acting career.

Winona doesn’t mention Depp by name, but admits her first
romance ended shortly after she shot the 1992 movie “Dracula.”
Her engagement to the actor ended less than a year later.

Winona, says, “I had just done ‘Dracula’ and ‘Edward
Scissorhands.’ I had just had my first real break-up, the
first heartbreak.

“And I think it was really ironic because, like, everybody
else just thought I had everything in the world … (and)
I had no reason to be depressed. Everything was sort of at
its peak, but inside I was completely lost.

“I remember feeling, ‘I can’t complain about anything,
because I’m so lucky, I’m so lucky.’”

Beyonce Fan Gets Too Close at London Gig…

Bodyguards at Beyonce’s London concert on Monday night were
thrown into a panic after a fan squeezed past security checks
in an attempt to reach the superstar and her husband Jay-Z.

Beyonce is currently playing a string of dates in the U.K.
as part of her I Am … world tour and landed at the
capital’s O2 Arena for a show on Monday.

But as Beyonce was preparing to start her performance, a fan
managed to sneak backstage and accost her as she was walking
between her dressing room and the stage.

A source tells The London Paper, “A man barged through the
backstage door just as Beyonce was walking past.
“He cried out her name with his arms outstretched before
security bundled him back out again.”

But the paper reports it was not Beyonce who was the actual
target: “He wanted to see (Beyonce’s husband) Jay-Z to give
him a demo tape.”

The hollywood actress who is looking to expand her resume
by co-starring with her singer/actor boyfriend in a future
film is….

It’s Jessica Biel…

“If it was the right thing, yeah, I would love to costar
with Justin,” Jessica says. “I just don’t know what the
right thing is, though.”

With a high-profile romance, and a growing career, it
would make sense that Jessica would be very involved in
the Hollywood scene. But, Jessica says, she and Justin
would rather just relax together.

“We just hang out at home,” says Jessica. “You have to
have a real life because of the kind of crazy Hollywood
stuff that you can get wrapped up in. It’s so important
to have hobbies and girlfriends, and not know people that
work in Hollywood.”

Of her relatively low-key lifestyle, Jessica says, “It
keeps you sane. I was playing soccer and I joined a
kickball league. That’s way more interesting to me than
going to some party.”
