Actor George Clooney reportedly had to drop out of Steven Soderbergh’s new big-screen adaptation of the 1960s spy show, Man From U.N.C.L.E, because of his health. The 50-year-old seriously injured his back and brain after filming a violent scene in Syriana and he is apparently still recovering from it. A source told E! News: “He said he just can’t do the action and stunt scenes. “In fact, I think he’s planning on having another operation during the time he would have been filming. “But George knows this movie is all about action and he knows he’s just not up to it. That’s what this is about. It’s nothing to do with Steven.”
Actress Mila Kunis has said that she is glad she voted for US President Barack Obama in the 2008 election. The 28-year-old respects the president as a leader, but doesn’t agree with some of the compromises he has made with his Republican opposition since taking office. Kunis said: “I love Barack Obama, I voted for him and I will forever be proud of my vote, so I can’t say anything bad against him – other than I think America is in a very temperamental state, and the decision that was made and the compromises made mean, in my opinion, that people are going to pay for a very long time.” The Hollywood beauty also admitted she doesn’t understand why more young Americans aren’t more interested in the government. Mila added to British Stylist magazine: “You don’t have to watch Fox News or CNN or MSNBC; you don’t have to be part of a political party, you could just read.Why is nobody reading? I feel like, in our generation, people don’t read…They don’t read books, they don’t read the paper, they don’t read the news.” She added: “It’s crazy to me that people don’t educate themselves about the world considering so many of them have children who are going to suffer because of it.” The Friend with Benefits star continued: “Whoever you vote for, don’t do it just because. And don’t tell me it’s because of religion either because that whole thing is knocked completely out the window. So you better just educate yourself.”

Scott Disick has confessed to partner Kourtney Kardashian that he hasn’t been totally honest about his alcohol consumption. The businessman – who has son Mason with the reality star — quit the booze last year in an effort to control his anger but admitted he hasn’t entirely stuck to living life on the wagon. In Sunday’s Keeping Up With the Kardashians, while holidaying in Tahiti, Disick, 28, tells Kourtney: “[I] didn’t lie, but I kind of kept some of the truth from you about that time when I went with all the boys to Vegas. I didn’t get out of control. It’s nothing crazy, but sitting here in Tahiti makes me think I wouldn’t mind having a drink or two because I believe that I’m in a place that I could have a drink or two responsibly and not get crazy.” But Kourtney, 32, tells him she needs time to think. “I just don’t know how I feel about that. It’s hard for me to trust you because of everything’s that gone on, and I don’t want it to get back to that place.”
Emma Watson has been spotted indulging in some serious retail therapy with her new man Johnny Simmons. The loved-up pair, who met on the set of forthcoming film The Perks of Being a Wallflower, took in everything the City of Light had to offer — including its famous shopping. “They seem very in love, very cute,” said an employee at the Maje boutique on rue Saintonge, where the Harry Potter actress modeled potential buys for her beau. “She did her own shopping — she knows what she likes,” the worker told People. “She picked out outfits and he made some suggestions, picking out items which she tried on in the dressing cabin, then coming to model for him.” Her 2200 Euro haul is thought to have included a T-shirt emblazoned with a neon pink-toothed tiger, a neon pink belt chosen by Simmons to go with the t-shirt, a black wool knee-length coat with leather sleeves, a grey woollen sweater with white collar and a pair of skinny jeans.
Sandra Bullock is reportedly worried that ex-husband Jesse James’s on-again-off-again relationship with Kat Von D could be affecting his daughter. James got with Von D following his split from Bullock last year, but the pair called off their engagement in July, only to reunite a month later. According to In Touch magazine, Sandra fears that all the disruption could be having a negative impact on seven-year-old Sunny, who moved in with Jesse full-time after her mother Janine Lindermulder was jailed. “Jesse and Kat parted ways only weeks ago, and now they’re back together again,” an insider said. “It’s a lot for a young child to understand. All she sees are mother figures coming in and out of her life.” She is also said to be concerned about how Von D’s edgy image is influencing Sunny. “She [Sunny] wants a tattoo, but Sandra feels she’s way too young,” but she fears that if she tells Jesse, he’ll “let Sunny do it out of spite” added the source.

News: “The couple is still friends and the process thus far is very amicable. I again ask for everyone to respect their privacy as they work through this delicate period in their lives.”

A source said, “Things are getting pretty serious between Emma and Johnny so she wanted to take him back to London to meet her parents. “They’ve been having a brilliant time together. Emma knows the city like the back of her hand so is a great person to show him around. “They’ve done loads of tourist spots but she has also been taking him to a few flea markets and some great local pubs. “They’ve been taking bikes or eco-cars to every tourist trap in the capital, including the London Eye, Big Ben and St Paul’s Cathedral.”
Uma Thurman hated the way she looked when she was younger. The screen beauty said she could barely look at herself in the mirror — thanks to her big nose and spaced out eyes.

The haggis has reportedly proved to be too much for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt and their quest to enjoy all things Scottish, thanks to the haggis. The Hollywood couple and their six kids are currently staying in Ayrshire while Brad films World War Z nearby, and ventured out for a family meal on Monday. But only son Maddox, ten, was brave enough to take on the traditional dish, which features sheep hearts, livers and lungs wrapped in the animal’s intestine. A source told the Scottish Sun, “Ayrshire’s Burns country so it was a fitting way to celebrate a great time here. But it was only Maddox who took a shine to the Haggis.”
