He was arrested and charged with assault following an altercation over a parking space recently, and now Alec Baldwin is being urged to seek help for his anger issues. “Friends are begging him to seek professional help to save himself and his career,” a source tells Globe. “Some anger management and counselling would really do him good.” It’s not just the 60-year-old’s acting career that could suffer, with fears the drama will bleed into his home life with wife Hilaria, 34, too. “His anger issues have put a tremendous strain on his marriage,” a source tells the National Enquirer, adding that Hilaria asked Alec “to move out” after his latest meltdown. A day after the bust-up, he was spied alone in East Hampton, before returning to stay in a separate…

If Britney Spears wants to fill seats, she’d better work, b***h! Nearly two weeks after tickets went on sale for her Domination concert series, the 36-year-old pop star is still struggling to sell out the Park MGM in Las Vegas. According to reports, half of the tickets for the first month of her new Sin City residency are still available for purchase. By contrast, Lady Gaga, who is kicking off her stint at the Park Theatre as well, nearly sold out her run within the first week. Some reckon the reason Brit’s losing sales is because she’s going in a whole new direction with her show. Yep, she’s taking on an “urban, street, hip-hop vibe”, which will be reflected in everything, from the music to the wardrobe, choreography, and even…

1 IS ROB KARDASHIAN IN FAT CAMP? Rob Kardashian’s always been the most reclusive of the Kardashian Klan – but this is getting ridiculous! The star hasn’t been seen out in public since June 8, prompting speculation he’s been shipped off to a weight loss camp! Indeed, mumager Kris Jenner hinted in August that Rob, who’s struggled with weight gain over the last few years, was overhauling his bod. “He’s working on his health,” she revealed. Meanwhile, Rob himself admitted he wanted to “work on myself when I choose” – and it seems he’s decided the time is ripe to get a ripped rig. But getting fit isn’t the only change Rob’s making. Last week he filed new court docs, claiming he “can no longer afford” the $27,000 per month…

5 The number of months she “trained with Navy Seals” to prepare for her role in the action flick Sucker Punch . Vanessa says the hardcore prep was “the most intense thing that anyone could ever do”. 6.8 Is how many kilos Vanessa gained to play a homeless runaway teen in the movie Gimme Shelter . “I grabbed the scissors and started cutting my actual hair,” she proudly says of her make-under. “I love the idea of... being a chameleon.” $1400 The fine she had to pay for allegedly carving “Austin + Vanessa” on a rock at the Coconino National Forest in Arizona. “It comes off,” Vanessa says. “I knew with the first rain it would go away.” NET WORTH $14,000,000 3 The number…

All the stars have aligned this week – Bachelorette Ali has found love with Taite (p18), her hunky runner-up Todd is officially single, and I’m writing my first ever editor’s letter for NW. Actual life goals. But while everyone’s totally blissed-out Down Under, over in the US it’s a different story. Kimye have made another dash to the psych ward (p16), Ange’s facing losing her kids (p14) – and Caitlyn’s face is falling off! (Yep, really. You can read about it on p22). The most heartbreaking news, however, has to be the inferno that’s tearing through Hollywood right now and turning celebs’ homes to ashes (p26). Sob – just another reminder to count our blessings. On the topic of blessings, back to Todd... Enjoy the issue!…

It’s a recipe for disaster! After their on-screen romance went up in flames following the 2016 Bachelor finale, fans are questioning what Alex Nation and Richie Strahan were thinking joining the cast of Bachelor In Paradise Season Two together. But while the potential for fireworks between the pair – who were spotted arriving in Fiji earlier this month to begin filming – are bound to be ratings gold, NW hears Richie may have another reason up his sleeve for agreeing to the reality reunion... good old-fashioned revenge! “Richie was no doubt heartbroken when Alex moved on so quickly with Maegan [Luxa],” says an insider of the babe’s romance with her footy teammate, who she was snapped kissing in August 2017 – six months after she and Rich quietly split, according…

“TAITE IS IN MY PHONE UNDER TWO MUSICAL NOTES – BECAUSE HE SINGS TO MY SOUL!” For a second there, we didn’t think Ali Oetjen – taking her third trip on the reality TV merry-go-round – was going to find love. While one of her Bachelorette suitors, Todd King, was ready to get down on one knee, the man she really had her heart set on, Taite Radley, just couldn’t promise her the world. There was no talk of a wedding, or even a happy ever after. All he could offer her was his heart, and a willingness to give love a shot after all the cameras disappeared. Well, how things can change in just three short months! Ali, 32, and Taite, 28, tell NW they’re planning their perfect family…

At first, Sandra Bullock wasn’t sure she wanted to star in her next movie, thriller Bird Box, where she plays a woman called Malorie who has a cold indifference to children. “I don’t relate to someone who doesn’t want to be a mother,” she says. “I don’t relate to someone who isn’t warm and can’t love freely.” In fact, being a mum is all Sandra has ever wanted, and her dream came true when she adopted Louis and Laila. But since boyfriend Bryan Randall came into their lives, there’s also been the chance that she could experience her own pregnancy one day. That day, it appears, is now. Yep, friends are buzzing that Sandra is expecting her first child at age 54. OMG! “Sandra’s dropped hints there could be a…

Rob Mills was singing with a covers band in Melbourne when a friend told him about a brand-new TV show called Australian Idol. He turned up for the auditions after a night when he’d done two gruelling pub gigs. “I didn’t sleep – I went straight to McDonald’s, then straight there and stood in line for about six or seven hours,” he recalls. It was worth it. Rob, now 36, came fifth in the mega-hit first season of Australian Idol in 2003 and scored a record deal with BMG. “I spent the next 12 months putting together an album, writing with some incredible writers,” he says. “Stephen Tate from Network Ten offered me the job of hosting Video Hits. I turned it down. I didn’t want to be the guy…

Just what was it about Sex And The City that we all adored? The frocks, the frankness... the focus on being PC?! Er, not quite. However, that’s the new mood for the reboot of the raunchy rom-com that star Sarah Jessica Parker and Girls creator Lena Dunham are bringing to life. “Sarah realises a movie with the original cast isn’t realistic,” a source tells US Star magazine. “So she’s teamed up with Lena to reboot it as a streaming series, with a heavy focus on lesbian and ‘Me Too’-era issues.” And that’s not all that’s about to change in the hit series. Man-eater Samantha, who was originally played by Kim Cattrall, is set to be replaced by a…

Unicorns are sooo 2017!

It looks like someone’s got a case of the green-eyed monster, as it turns out Eva Mendes has some, ahem, crazy, stupid demands for her hunky babydaddy Ryan Gosling! Yep, rumour has it that the 38-year-old actor has been offered a new role – which just happens to include a full-frontal scene – and while Ry is fine with stripping down onscreen, Eva, 44, is certainly not happy about it! “She said absolutely no way is he going to show off everything!” a spy reveals. “And if he loses the role because of it, then so be it.” Eek! The snitch says that Ryan tried to reason with the mum of his two kids, Esmeralda, four, and Amada, two, even pointing out that she’s bared it all on the big…

‘MADDOX HAS HAD ENOUGH – HE WANTS A FRESH START’ Desperate to escape the controlling clutches of Angelina Jolie, it looks like the kids have finally had enough! As Ange’s custody war with Brad Pitt rages on, their eldest son Maddox has decided to leave home, and the rest of the clan may be about to follow suit Uh-huh, 17-year-old Maddox has been spotted looking at universities in Seoul, South Korea – and NW has learned that it’s because he can’t stand his parents’ fighting any longer! “This has been dragging on for two years and it seems like Maddox has had enough. There are plenty of universities in America that he could attend, but he wants a fresh start,” says a source. Indeed, it’s the kind of freedom that…

He liked it and he was ready to put a ring on it – but poor Todd fell at the final hurdle. Sob. We’re here for you, handsome! “Everyone’s just been so lovely,” says the runner-up. “You can’t get over it until it’s all done and dusted, because you’re living this double life [where] you could still win. Now I can move on, though.” But we can’t! All we could talk about last night was the ring. “I’d put everything on the line up to that point,” Todd tells us. “I didn’t go in with a plan to use it, but I wanted the option. So I had it in my pocket, and if the time was right, and Ali could say she loved me back, it was definitely on…

Three months after she entered rehab following an opioid overdose, Demi Lovato returned to the city where she almost died. Indeed, on November 3, the pop star, 26, stepped out for dinner at LA sushi spot Matsuhisa with a smile on her face and a new man by her side – fashion designer Henry Levy. But while the two were seen laughing and holding hands that night before backing it up two days later, where they were spotted snuggling over a coffee date, it’s not all as blissful as it seems, as friends fear she’s going down a dangerous path. “Demi’s definitely his type,” one of Henry’s friends reveals. Yep, they certainly have a lot in common. They’re both artists – Demi makes music and Henry designs clothes for his…

Em’s stringing us along All those babes at the beach don’t have a patch on Emily Ratajkowski, who’s not wearing much more than, well, a patch as she strolls on the sand at Sydney’s Camp Cove. Hope she’s got a strong SPF on, because nearly every inch of the stunner’s skin is in the blazing sun! But the model’s not in town just to show off her assets – she’s also here to attend the GQ Australia Men Of The Year Awards. She already wins Best Beach Bod!

Blast the tunes If you’re after Khloe Kardashian’s hotter-than-hot curves, Chrissy Teigen’s cute booty or Reese Witherspoon’s lean look, “the driving force is music”, says Simone De La Rue, Australian dancer and trainer to all those bombshells. “I always say to a client, ‘Pick your playlist’. Whatever music you love – and that will be different for everybody – but whatever motivates you, put those tunes on, because immediately it’s going to put you in a good mood and it’s going to motivate you.” Strong-arm it Trainer Don Saladino helped Blake Lively lose 28kg and get back in post-baby shape, and strength training played a big part. “I see her as much as her schedule allows,” says Don, who makes sure his star client incorporates weights into her routine. “The…

Princess Diana wasn’t a regular mum, she was a cool mum – and the evidence was right in Prince William’s face when he opened the fridge! The late royal’s cheeky side has been, ahem, exposed, after her former chef Darren McGrady revealed she bought her son Wills a cake shaped like a pair of breasts for his 13th birthday to mock his obsession with supermodels. Way to make a tit out of him! “I came into work that morning and went down to the refrigerator, opened the door and I was just confronted with the biggest pair of boobs I’ve ever seen in my life,” Darren told Hello magazine. “The Princess loved embarrassing people in the nicest way, in a fun way, whether it was telling…

“Now you can finally see how short I am.” Singer Halsey drew the short straw at the recent Victoria’s Secret Show. Hey, good things come in small packages! “From a very early age, I’ve always thought I’ll end up with a Brit...

It could be because she’s my little sister’s daughter.” Well you don’t say, Kendall Jenner. What next – your mum feels like your mum because she’s your mum?…

We’ve heard of growing old disgracefully, but Russell Crowe has really let himself go! No, wait – it’s just prosthetics for his new role. Phew! Oscar-winner Russell climbed inside a fat suit and underwent hours of work in the make-up chair to transform himself into Roger Ailes – one-time Republican consultant, former Fox News head and accused sexual harasser. Ailes is the subject of Sir Ridley Scott’s new Showtime series The Loudest Voice In The Room , also starring Naomi Watts and Sienna Miller, with the focus on the last decade of the disgraced CEO’s life. In the meantime, it seems poor Rusty has found out it’s true what they say – too many Ailes will make you fat! Thank goodness he’s wearing…
