So remember that time Richard Gere brushed off Pretty Woman as just a "silly romcom" to Woman's Day mag?

Yeah, neither does he.

The actor's publicist is now claiming that the reports of that statement are false and his rep is even calling BS!!!

Gere's rep states:

Call it the end of an era!!

Stage legend Barry Humphries has decided to retire his famous character, Dame Edna!

At age 78, Barry feels like it’s time to move on and has announced that his new stage show, Eat Pray Laugh! will be his final curtain call.

So sad!!!

Is Rodarte a lightning rod for controversy or what!?

Less than two years after causing a stink with their Juarez makeup collection, a UN expert is calling out the Mulleavy sisters on their latest collection.

UH OH!!! Sounds like someone has love goggles on!

It seems Miley Cyrus’ friends don’t approve of the 19 year-old singer’s Aussie BF, Liam Hemsworth.

A source says:

"Her pals all think he’s just a dumb surfer and a pothead.”

Not only that, Miley’s friends claim Liam uses her and is super controlling and they think she can do WAY better.

Miley's not listening and can’t be tamed…she's even considering moving to Australia with the Hunger Games star and starting a family!

We're not sure if what Miley's friends are saying is true, but we hope she's being careful!!!

Practice what you preach, Jamie, and don't get pissy when someone calls you out on it!

Jamie Oliver was in Australia, and during an interview, the interviewer happened to ask him about his own weight -- asking if he was heavier than when last Down Under.

Here's how Jamie responded:

"I don't know. I am very healthy. I think the last time I had a filling in my teeth, which was quite recently, I was in good nick. But really, I am not really sure. Are you from a tabloid? Thank you for noticing, you bitch."

Classy.

Here's his excuse:

"I went out last night and had a few drinks after a very long day, (and) my brain did not quite understand that question. I do my best . . . working in the food business is quite hard when someone is constantly asking you to try things. I eat fresh, I train twice a week. I could definitely do better, but I am trying to do my best like most people when they hit 30."

We love that you're all for healthiness, Jamie, but this almost made us turn on a dime about how we feel towards you. Yes, you should practice what you preach, and no, you shouldn't get all snippy when someone calls you out on it.

Hell, you've made a fortune off calling OTHERS on it.

Oh, yeah! It's EXACTLY like America's!

The Voice Australia looks identical to it's American counterpart.

Like, if they didn't have accents we might not have noticed a difference.

Obvi, you don't want to fix something that's not broken. We just wish they'd make it their own, at least a bit.

NOT impressive.

Check out RuPaul's underwhelming performance of Supermodel (above) from Sydney Mardi Gras on Saturday.

Pret-ty disappointing, especially since Ru was reportedly acting seriously DIVA the entire night at the event!

Here's what a source had to say about her divatastic behavior:

"Who knows why, but right before she was due to take to the stage she refused to go on with the dancers and said she wanted to perform solo."

"The dancers were really shocked. They had been preparing all day. They ended up going out and performing the number anyway once RuPaul finished. They couldn’t just waste having 40 dancers dressed, rehearsed and ready to go."

And more from the source:

"There were other restrictions too. Like the dancers – when they were going to appear with her – weren’t allowed in a certain box that had been taped on the stage around [RuPaul]."

We REALLY hope Ru was just having a bad night. It'd be a serious shame if this became a new trend…

What do U think? Did U like RuPaul's performance? Do U think she was acting divalicious at this event???
