Dita Von Teese wants to be reincarnated as Elizabeth Taylor's dog.

The burlesque dancer has revealed she would love to come back to life as one of the screen legend's pets, because they live such a "wild" and indulgent life.

U.S. actress Lauren Bacall has branded Tom Cruise a "maniac."

Screen legend Bacall worked with Cruise's ex-wife Nicole Kidman on 2003 film "Dogville," soon after her divorce from the "Mission: Impossible" actor, and says she appeared "unhappy" during filming, before launching an astonishing and scathing attack on Cruise.
