Britney Spears is converting to Judaism. The "Womanizer" singer is reportedly so keen to marry her agent Jason Trawick she is willing to ditch her Christian faith and become a Jew.

The 27-year-old star has been photographed wearing a Star of David necklace during her world tour and has even recruited a rabbi to help her study the faith.

Justin Timberlake is set to star in one of Guy Ritchie's new movies. The "SexyBack" singer met the British film director at his London pub The Punchbowl on Monday and the pair discussed working together.

A source said: "Work is really taking off for Guy at the moment and he is lining up talent for projects in the pipeline."

Lenny Kravitz helped Madonna adopt Mercy. The "Are You Gonna Go My Way" rocker let the 50-year-old singer stay in his luxurious French mansion when her adoption of the four-year-old Malawian child became too stressful and she needed to escape from the public eye.

He said: "It has been tough for Madonna. But she's doing good. She's been staying in my place in France while it was going on. I'm glad it's worked out."

Madonna is turning her Manhattan apartment into a replica of her British estate. The "4 Minutes" singer - who split from her husband, film director Guy Ritchie, late last year - misses their Wiltshire manor so much she is spending a fortune replicating the period interiors in her luxurious new home.

A source told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "She doesn't seem to want to give her old place up. Living there was like living in a dream."

Madonna is taking her new adopted daughter Mercy on holiday. The "4 Minutes" singer - a devout follower of the mystical Jewish faith Kabbalah - wants to take the four-year-old tot to see the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem, along with the star's adopted son David.

The trip will happen in September to coincide with Madonna's final date of her "Sticky and Sweet" tour in Tel Aviv, Israel.
