SEAN CONNERY WANTS TO QUIT!!!!!!



Sir Sean Connery has insisted he has definitely quit acting.

The Scottish actor - who has starred in films including 'Goldfinger', 'Entrapment' 'Dr. No' - is happy living with his wife Micheline in their New York apartment, and says nothing could make him return to the big screen.

Connery said: "There is nothing that will persuade me to get back into acting. It's over - I will never, ever do another film."

However, Micheline - who has been married to the actor for 22 years - doesn't believe the 77-year-old Hollywood star will manage to stick to his pledge.

She laughed: "He has said that twice before and then ended up doing another one!"

Connery recently revealed he was forced to stop writing his autobiography because it was giving him nightmares.

The screen legend was planning on setting the record straight with his own memoirs, after being left fuming by the "lies" written about him in previous unauthorised biographies.

However, he decided not to put pen to paper after a series of sleepless nights and terrifying dreams caused by the stress of writing.

He said: "It was giving me really bad nightmares and I wasn't sleeping. I don't think I am cut out for introspection!"



FERGIE ENGAGED




Fergie has got engaged to her actor boyfriend Josh Duhamel.

The couple, who have been dating for three years, announced their happy news yesterday (26.12.07) but refused to reveal if 'Las Vegas' star Josh popped the question on Christmas Day.

A representative for the actor has confirmed the pair got engaged "recently", but as yet no other details are available.

Since getting betrothed, Fergie, 32, has been calling all her friends and family to tell them about the engagement.

A source said: "She has called a lot of her girlfriends to tell them about the engagement. Fergie said she and Josh don't know what kind of wedding they want yet, but insists she is the happiest girl on earth."

Earlier this month, Fergie claimed she was in no rush to get engaged because she already felt married to Josh.

The Black Eyed Peas singer, who has been dating the 35-year-old actor since 2004, said: "We're practically married. I'm madly in love with him. He understands how to treat a woman and gives me respect."




MICHEELLE RODRIQUEZ JAILED




Michelle Rodriguez began her six-month prison sentence yesterday afternoon (23.12.07).

The former 'Lost' star reported to California's Lynwood County Jail at 4.33pm to start her sentence for violating the terms of her probation after she was found guilty of DUI (driving under theinfluence of alcohol).

Superior Court Judge Daviann L. Mitchell ruled the 29-year-old actress could not be given early release, but due to prison over-crowding the county sheriff may have no choice but to let her out before she has served her full sentence.

State law also permits that Rodriguez be released early for good behaviour.

The 29-year-old actress was sentenced on October 10 after she "admitted violating her probation by failing to provide proof of completion of her community service and for consuming alcohol three times while wearing an alcohol-monitoring device."

Rodriguez - who played Ana-Lucia in hit TV show 'Lost' - was serving an extended probation term for several driving offences.

In May 2006, she served just four hours and 20 minutes of a two-month sentence at Lynwood for violating probation terms of a DUI arrest in Hawaii in December 2005.

She was released early due to prison over-crowding, and served just over two days in a Honolulu jail for the same offence.

In June 2004, Rodriguez was placed on three years probation after pleading no contest to DUI and driving with a suspended licence following two separate incidents in Hollywood dating back to 2003.
