Woody Allan doesn’t feel comfortable being in Los Angeles.

The ‘Vicky Cristina Barcelona’ director stated that he feels like a “fish out of water” in the Californian city. Though he’s never hidden his love of his home city of New York.

He said: “I’m like a fish out of water in a town like Los Angeles. You have to drive every place - you can’t walk and the sun beats down on your head. I prefer to be in a more pedestrian city!”

Penelope Cruz - who stars in ‘Vicky Cristina Barcelona’ alongside with Scarlett Johansson - recently revealed Woody is not as excited as the rest of the world about the Hollywood pair’s lesbian kiss in the film.

She said: “Woody could not care less about our kissing scene. When we would ask him about it, he was more interested in a new mark which had appeared on his hand and was worrying him.

“He even stopped shooting so he could go to the doctor and get it checked out. We all had to wait around for him to come back.”

Sad news for the Harry Potter fans. Warner Bros. is postponing the release of Harry Potter and the Half- Blood Prince.

It turns out, that the sixth film in the franchise, set to permier Nov. 21, will now be released in July of 2009.

Warner Bros. president Alan Horn stated, that the writers strike is responsible for the dealy.

“Like every other studio, we are still feeling the repercussions of the writers strike, which impacted the readiness of scripts for other films–changing the competitive landscape for 2009 and offering new windows of opportunity that we wanted to take advantage of,” he said. “We agreed the best strategy was to move Half-Blood Prince to July, where it perfectly fills the gap for a major tentpole release for midsummer.”

The studio said it still plans to release a two-film adaptation of the final book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, with the first film on track to be released on Nov. 19, 2010.

Digital Spy has made a list taking a look at things Madonna has said during her 50 years of life. She have always had her own opinion on different things, whether the subject has been sex, politics or religion.

__________________________________________________________________________

Madonna On Sex

  • “My p***y is the temple of learning.”
  • “Everyone probably thinks that I’m a raving nymphomaniac, that I have an insatiable sexual appetite, when the truth is I’d rather read a book.”
  • “We lie right next to each other with our BlackBerrys under our pillows. It’s not unromantic, it’s practical.”
  • (On what goes on in the Ritchie bedroom.)

  • “I think I have a d**k in my brain. I don’t need to have one between my legs. It would be like having a third leg.”

__________________________________________________________________________

Madonna On Men

  • “I’m a romantic. I believe in true love and, you know, finding your soul-mate and all of those things, but I just don’t know about the whole marriage thing. I mean, what’s the point of it really?”
  • (Speaking to CNN’s Larry King - someone should have warned Guy!)

  • “Maybe I’m a gay man in a woman’s body.”
  • “Why did God create men? Because vibrators can’t mow the lawn.”
  • “Strong women love big hickies.”

__________________________________________________________________________

Madonna Being Controversial

  • “Crucifixes are sexy because there’s a naked man on them!”
  • “If you don’t like my attitude, then you can f**k off. Just go to Texas and you can suck George Bush’s d**k.”
  • (Madonna onstage at the Coachella music festival.)

  • “Most priests are gay.”

__________________________________________________________________________

Madonna Being Weird

  • “I love Cadbury’s Fruit And Nut, Crunchies and Maltesers, but my absolute favourite is a Cadbury’s Creme Egg. They are totally deadly but so delicious.”
  • “I love horses. I think I may have been one of Henry VIII’s knights in another life, riding through a great forest.”
  • “You can’t go to London and not start drinking Guinness, and I have been known to eat fried fish and French fries. When in Rome, right?”

__________________________________________________________________________

Madonna On Madonna

  • “I want to be like Gandhi and Martin Luther King and John Lennon… but I want to stay alive.”
  • “I wanted to make people happy. I wanted to be famous. I wanted everybody to love me. I wanted to be a star. I worked really hard and my dream came true.”
  • “I live for meeting with men in suits. I love them because I know they had a really boring week and I walk in there with my orange velvet leggings and drop popcorn in my cleavage and then fish it out and eat it.”

__________________________________________________________________________

Madonna On Her Critics

  • “The ones that said I was talentless, that I was chubby, that I couldn’t sing, that I was a one-hit wonder. They pushed me to be better, and I am grateful for their resistance.”
  • (Madonna at her recent induction into the Rock ‘N’ Roll Hall of Fame.)

  • “Better to live one year as a tiger than a hundred as a sheep.”
  • “Listen, everyone is entitled to my opinion.”

According to Digital Spy Kate Winslet has admitted that filming a love scene with Leonardo DiCaprio for their upcoming movie Revolutionary Road was “a bit weird”.

Winslet, who starred opposite DiCaprio in Titanic, told Entertainment Weekly that the discomfort was heightened by the presence of the director, her husband Sam Mendes.

She said: “I just kept saying, ‘This is too… weird’. And Leo was like, ‘Oh, get over it’. And I’m going, ‘Yeah, a little reminder: You’re my best friend. He’s my husband. This is a bit weird’.

“I hadn’t realised how much my chemistry with him since Titanic would still stick. It’s great to discover we can just slip right into it, like muscle memory.”

Mendes added that he was also feeling awkward directing his wife with DiCaprio.

“I will admit it was quite bizarre to direct my wife in how to make love,” he said. “But it’s difficult whether you’re married to a person or not.”

Rumer Willis doesn’t think it’s a big deal her step-father Ashton Kutcher is BFFs with her biological father Bruce Willis, states Us Magazine.

“We all have so much fun together. I’m so lucky,” she tells this weekend’s Page Six magazine. “My dad and Ashton get along — it’s not weird. There’s no jealousy or drama.

“If we weren’t all entirely morally opposed to doing a reality show,” she adds, “I guarantee it would be the best-selling reality show ever.”

She says Kutcher — who wed Demi Moore in 2005 — “is so cool. He definitely is a father-slash-older brother figure, but at the same time I can still go out with him and have an amazing time.”

She thanks her mom and dad (and step-dad!) for keeping her so grounded.

“Sure, I have my issues, but I’m not in rehab. I’m not in crazy debt. I like the fact that I didn’t just get my GED, but I graduated from high school,” Willis, 19, says. “A lot of it has to do with my parents. They have a desire to keep us [kids] grounded and give us a normal upbringing.”

Christian Bale could escape assault charges with a caution, reported Female First.

‘The Dark Knight’ actor was arrested last month after supposedly “pushing and shoving” his mother Jenny, 61, and Sharon, 41.

But the star may avoid going to court after Crown Prosecution Service lawyers advised police to let him off with a caution if he pleads guilty to the attack.

Even if Bale claims he is innocent, he could still be charged over the incident.

Bale, 34, was said to have “flipped out” after his mother and sister apparently asked him for £100,000 to help Sharon raise her children.  The incident happened in London’s Dorchester Hotel the day before he was due to attend the UK premiere of ‘The Dark Knight’ - and was accused of attacking the pair.

He turned himself over to police for questioning two days later after the women made a complaint against him.

Barack Obama has said his children “are very down” on Britney Spears and Paris Hilton.

The Democrat presidential candidate claimed that his daughters Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7, are not impressed by sexualised young female celebrities.

“Malia and Sasha are very down on Britney Spears and Paris Hilton,” he told Marie Clare

“Malia is the first one to change [the channel] if something suddenly comes on that she thinks is inappropriate.”

Obama said his children are more keen on Disney Channel star Miley Cyrus.

“[Malia] is a big fan of Hannah Montana,” he commented. “And when Miley Cyrus had that picture in Vanity Fair [holding a sheet to her chest], she just offered this very sensible opinion.

“She said, ‘Well, she seems like a good person. Her family seems to love her. Everybody makes mistakes, so I hope that people won’t judge her for just this one picture’.”
