Robert Pattinson has ruled out the idea of signing up to a blockbuster action movie - because he has no desire to cash in on his popularity.

Instead, Pattinson has ch

Cindy Crawford is urging women to stop buying magazines which feature super-skinny models - because it is up to the public to change body image stereotypes.

Crawford recently admitted she wouldn't have become a successful supermodel if she had started out in 2009, because her body is too curvy for today's catwalks.

The star is convinced fashion magazines promote an unhealthy lifestyle to young girls and she's hoping consumers will make an effort to avoid these products in a bid to send a message to industry bosses.

She says, "We as the consumers, we as the women, have the power. If you don'

Rihanna is shocked by the furore over her raunchy artwork for new track Russian Roulette - insisting the public should be used to seeing her dressed provocatively.

Rihanna's first single since her highly-publicised fight with Chris Brown in February (09) features a saucy shot of the star posing in nothing but an eye-patch, barbed-wire around her breasts and a basque.

The Umbrella hitmaker is finding it hard to understand why people have been so shocked by the snap - but she's happy her tough new image is making waves.

Mariah Carey has blamed music industry bosses for failing to spot the internet download trend - accusing record labels of letting their artists down by allowing illegal file-sharing to become commonplace.

Carey is adamant label bosses should have realised the potential of the internet a long time before illicit song swapping became prevalent, and she's furious because the practise means many musicians lose out on precious royalty money.

The Hero hitmaker insists that although record labels are slowly beginning to grasp the potential of the internet, they will never be able to repair the damage done by illegal downloa
