Britney Spears is set to launch a new perfume to coincide with the release of her new album.

The singer - who has previously lent her name to scents entitled Curious, Fantasy, In Control, Midnight Fantasy, Curious Heart and Believe - will release fragrance Hidden Fantasy on December 2, the same day as her sixth studio LP Circus hits the shops.

Shannen Doherty says Paris Hilton's sex tape is "disgusting." The "Beverly Hills, 90210" actress was married to Rick Salomon - who appears in the 2004 tape with Paris - for a short while in 2002, and found it hard when the infamous tape emerged.

She said: "I look at what he did with Paris and think, 'God, that's disgusting.'"

Britney Spears' ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib has confirmed there is a sex tape of the pair.

The British paparazzo claims he and Britney - who reportedly wears nothing but a pink wig throughout the X-rated piece - made the footage while on holiday in Mexico, and admits he is considering selling the two-hour tape for "the right price".

Paris Hilton hates it when she is accused of not working. The hotel heiress - who will soon be seen searching for a new pal on a new MTV reality show called "Paris Hilton's My BFF" - doesn't take any notice of criticism, but finds one misconception irritating.

She said: "The one that really gets to me is 'she doesn't work.' I am literally running a huge corporation. I have my clothing lines, my champagne, my watches, shoes and purses and dog clothes - every sort of product you can imagine."

Kevin Federline has warned Paris Hilton to stay away from Britney Spears. The dancer and rapper - who has two children with ex-wife Britney - told the hotel heiress to leave the 'Gimme More' singer alone because she does not need any bad influences in her life.

Kevin reportedly told the socialite at the Las Vegas launch of restaurant and club Lavo he does not want Britney - who recently scooped three gongs at the MTV Video Music Awards - to return to her troubled lifestyle for the sake of his children Sean Preston, three, and Jayden James, two.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been named the most powerful people in Hollywood.

Brad toppled Tom Cruise's four-year reign as Most Powerful Actor, whereas Angelina claimed the title of Most Powerful Actress, after tying with Brad's former wife Jennifer Aniston for the title in 2008 in the list compiled by Guinness Book of World Records 2009.
