ASHLEE SIMPSON - SEXY LADY SEEN AT BELLACURES

Looking to relax and get pampered, Ashlee Simpson was seen at Bellacures in Burbank, California yesterday afternoon.

The “Pieces of Me” songstress looked to be in good spirits as she made her exit after her mani-pedi appointment, sporting a grey fedora, red and black sweater, and grey trousers.

During her recent appearance on the “Rachel Ray” show, Ashlee and her sister Jessica chatted about their upcoming clothing line.

Additionally, Jessica shared that pregnancy has made her extra emotional. “I felt [the baby] move the other day for the first time and I had big crocodile tears. It was the coolest thing ever. It did a flip or something. I was like, ‘There it went. It’s there, it’s really there.”

NEIL AND DEEPIKA WILL BE SEEN TOGETHER AGAIN IN "PAIDAAR"

It is a known fact that Deepika Padukone and Neil Nitin Mukesh are thick friends for quite some time. So much so that Neil has even declared on a public platform that he and Deepika are more than just friends. However this great friendship won't necessarily lead to a professional alliance between the two for at least some time from now.

''When Neil had announced his home production PAIDAAR a few months back, it was Deepika's name that had emerged as the leading lady. The film is going be an all-around Neil show since he has not just written the film's script but would also be composing music along with producing and acting in it. There were all the right reasons to believe that Deepika would indeed do the film due to her friendship with Neil ever since the days of LAFANGEY PARINDEY. However with no further confirmation coming from either of the two, it seems like there would be a change in plans for Neil,'' says a source.

A romantic thriller with revenge at the core of it, PAIDAAR (an Urdu word that stands for eternal) was supposed to be directed by Rohit Jugraj, a key member in the writing team of PLAYERS which features Neil in a prominent role. One expected that as PLAYERS would come closer to release, Neil and Rohit would divulge further plans around PAIDAAR, especially the leading lady. However as things stand today, neither is Deepika a part of it, nor is the film going on floors anytime soon.

Says Neil, ''Neither Deepika nor any other actress has been approached for the film. We are still developing PAIDAAR so there is no question of any casting being finalised. The film still needs more time on scripting. Though it is pakka that I would be acting in it, no one else has been confirmed so far, whether it is the other actors or the director.''

When contacted, even Deepika denied doing the film. She said, ''I haven't been offered PAIDAAR so where is the questioning of me saying 'yes' or 'no' to it.''

Efron fired back, “She played it off really well. I had no idea [about her crush]. It’s so funny coming from a fellow artist. I think she’s so amazing; she’s so funny in this movie. She’s a darling.”

ACCORDING TO KARAN JOHAR, KAREENA IS HEROINE NO. 1

The big debate as to 'who is India's numero uno actress presently?' seems to be sorted out for the moment. Well how? Filmmaker Karan Johar putting the long time guesswork to the rest declared that Bollywood actor Kareena Kapoor is 'Heroine No. 1'.

Recently at an event to unveil the first look trailer of the upcoming film EK MAIN AUR EKK TU, Kareena was posed a question whether she considers herself the No.1 actress of B-town. While Kareena refused to answer the tricky question saying, "I don't know. I am not going to answer this question," Imran Khan, producer Karan Johar and debutant director Shakun Batra, who were also present at the event, prompted, "According to us Kareena is Heroine No.1."

And if this was not enough Karan, who was at his wittiest best at the event, quite dramatically announced, "Introducing the Heroine No.1 Kareena Kapoor (chuckles)."

When it comes from someone like Karan Johar, Kareena can safely accept or call herself Heroine No. 1 the next time. What say Bebo?
