Nicole 'threatened to end marriage'

Nicole Kidman was facing the possibility of having another failed marriage until husband Keith Urban admitted himself into rehabilitation.

The actress, who was married to Tom Cruise for ten years, gave her new husband an ultimatum of going to rehab or losing her.

'She gave him a choice. He could enter a programme or she'd leave him,' a friend said.

'He chose the former. Keith can't stand the thought of life without Nicole.'

The insider added that his relationship with Nicole is 'his motivation to kick this thing for good'.

Urban is currently in a Nashville rehab clinic for alcohol dependency.

According to Life & Style magazine, friends alerted Kidman that the country music star was drinking again while she was filming in Europe.

The star, who is described as 'an emotional wreck', flew back to the US immediately and confronted Urban.

He has previously attended rehab for alcohol and cocaine addiction.

Meanwhile, Kidman's sister Antonia has flown to the US to lend her support.

The close siblings spent Urban's 39th birthday together in Nashville.

TV crew fired after trespassing on Pitt's property

Taking the quest for an entertainment story to the extremes has proved costly for two journalists after they trespassed on Brad Pitt's Hollywood property.

A cameraman and producer working for the E! Network have been fired for reportedly unchaining a gate to the property and proceeding to walk around the grounds.

They fled the scene when workman at the home questioned their intentions and the television network has now confirmed that the two employees are no longer with the company, saying it is not part of their conduct to intrude on private property.

"E! Networks is investigating allegations that a producer and cameraman who were filming locations for a programme about Brad Pitt went onto property last week that is reportedly owned by Mr Pitt," a statement said.

"E! Networks did not instruct or authorise anyone working on its programme to improperly intrude onto private property.

"The network in no way condones or encourages such behavior and would like to offer its most sincere apologies to Mr. Pitt and his family."

Pitt, his partner Angelina Jolie and their three children are currently in India. The couple is working together on the film A Mighty Heart.

They have had run-ins with the press while abroad, including one of their security men making a death threat to a photographer.

Big Bash In Hollywood

A-list guard dogs were on duty last night...

As half of Tinseltown popped out to the same bash.


The event was the Hollywood Film Festival's 10th Annual Hollywood Awards and the attendees made it look like the Oscars.


The Beverly Hilton Hotel was rammed with the likes of Demi Moore, Ashton Kutcher, Penelope Cruz, Lindsay Lohan and Heather Graham.

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner made the effort, as did Sandra Bullock - looking fab in a bright red puffball dress.

Sharon Stone, Christian Slater, Robin Williams and Emilio Estevez - with his new fiancee - also popped along...

In fact, we're done with teasing you anymore... get up to the gallery above and see them all for yourself.

Where Brad Won't Swim...

Never mind Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie and their domestic, familial bliss...

For Team Aniston subscribers - there's some good news in that Jen is set to make her own domestic bliss.


And let's face it, with a pad like this, you'd be hard pushed not to be chuffed.

This is Jen's new abode in Beverly Hills - just a tiny pebble's throw from her buddy Courteney Cox's LA gaff.

And whilst we're not sure what the layout inside is (presumably it has got some walls and floors and stuff), it's that pool that works for us.

Let's hope that Jen has a smooth move in, and gets that spare room ready for us asap.

See Jen's house in full and more sickeningly gorgeous maisons of the rich and famous in the gallery above.
