It seems like it has become the latest trend for untalented pop singers to eventually make their move into acting- and Christina Aguilera is no exception. The platinum blonde is following the footsteps of a host of pop singers-turned-actresses, but hopefully this star won't flop at the box office. Christina is set to soon star in her first major acting debut in a movie about the life of Jeanne Carmen.

The singer is being lined up to play 50s pin-up Carmen in a biopic of her life. However, Christina faces stiff competition from a host of established Hollywood actresses, including Catherine Zeta-Jones and Scarlett Johansson, to land the role.

Elvis Presley was always known as quite the ladies' man, but unbeknownst to many, he also struck gold with the most beautiful woman that has ever lived. It has recently been claimed that the king of rock 'n' roll slept with Marilyn Monroe within minutes of meeting her.

The late rocker's former agent, Byron Raphael, kept details of the secret one-night stand quiet for 50 years, but has now revealed all in an exclusive interview.

Paris Hilton is being forced out of her home by thousands of pairs of shoes.

The hotel heiress loves to shop and has bought so many pairs of shoes she doesn't know what to do with them all.

Lindsay Lohan has expressed her desire to sing for US soldiers, particularly in Iraq and has also sought help from Hillary Clinton in this regard.

Lindsay, 20, told the US edition of Elle magazine: ""I've been trying to go to Iraq with Hillary Clinton for so long. Hillary was trying to work it out, but it seemed too dangerous."

Christina Aguilera has revealed the artwork on her new album was inspired by Marilyn Monroe.

The "Dirrty" singer - who is seen in the photographs suggestively posing on a bed in a sexy outfit, with bright red lipstick and a coiffed blonde hairstyle - says she was influenced by the screen legend and other movie sex sirens when creating her new look.

Hugh Hefner wants to be buried next to Marilyn Monroe. The Playboy founder has had an ornate vault earmarked alongside the screen goddess at Los Angeles' Westwood Ceremony - because he thinks she is "the major sex symbol of the 20th century."

The 79-year-old magazine mogul - renowned for his love of blondes - thinks the plot next to the "Some Like It Hot" star is the ideal final resting place.
