Crystal Harris, the 25-year-old former Playmate who jilted Hugh Hefner just days before their wedding, has reportedly put her engagement ring up for auction.

US gossip site TMZ claim the platinum ring with 3.39 carat diamond will be for sale to the highest bidder... at famous auction house Christie's no less.
Aside from life of luxury at the Playboy mansion, a whole heap of free publicity and a few tell-all interviews, Crystal hasn't really got too much out of her relationship with Hef, of course.

So the $20-30,000 she's expected to get for the sparkler will no doubt pay a few bills.

Not that that's the reason she's flogging it, obviously. No, Crystal insists it's because she just "couldn't bear to look at the ring any more because it brought back bad memories".

Bet there are tears in her eyes as we type.

What do you think - is Crystal right to sell the ring or should she return it to Hef? Leave a comment below...

It's amazing the lengths the stars will go to to get noticed disguise themselves.

Take this blonde star, for instance - the black hoodie clearly isn't enough so she's grabbed the nearest available cover-up, which in this case is a cuddly hammerhead.

But who's the singer behind the shark? Find out over the jump...
Yes, it's Ke$ha making a show of herself again.

The Tik Tok star arrived at Santos Dumont airport in Rio de Janeiro and had apparently already been to the gift shop.

Why was it strapped to her face? Your guess is as good as ours.

Posting a picture of the bizarre headgear on her Twitter page, Ke$ha's only explanation was: "I have a new spirit animal!!!"

Frankly, we reckon "look at me, look at me" would have been better.

Mind you, it's obviously the done thing in Rio because Katy Perry was at it last week.

What do you make of Ke$ha's shark attire? Leave a comment below...

Ke$ha's obviously been trying ever so hard to get papped but these celebs weren't so pleased to get caught on camera...

Who says the celebs rush into things?

Jack Osbourne has reportedly popped the question to girlfriend Lisa Stelly just four months after they started dating.

We've yet to hear confirmation from Jack himself but last night Lisa tweeted: "The most amazing man I've ever met asked me to marry him... and he wasn't joking!
Crazy, right :)."

Little bit, yeah.

As a teenager Jack was twice admitted to rehab to battle drug and alcohol addiction but has successfully cleaned up his act and is said to be a "great influence" on the aspiring actress.

An insider told Us Weekly: "It's just no drama. More stable."

No news yet on when the happy couple will walk down the aisle but we imagine any wedding featuring Ozzy, Sharon and Kelly Osbourne will be a pretty raucous affair.

Congratulations Jack and Lisa!

What do you think - is four months too soon to be getting engaged? Leave a comment below...

Let's hope Lisa gets on with her mother-in-law-to-be because she won't want to get on the wrong side of Sharon Osbourne...

BBC

Once the Muse of Enchantment had clicked her rhythmic fingers and danced her magic into my life by partnering me with World Champion Latin diva Flavia Cacace, thoughts turned from fantasy to some rather less magical realities. After all, fantasies are wonderful - but can easily slip right through our fingers.
For me, the chance to join the Strictly Come Dancing team is fabulous fantasia - but if I am to find any kind of success, a grip on reality will be essential.

So how to turn a dream into reality? Well, sheer hard work is hardly the stuff that dreams are made of, but it's certainly a start. I have always been a very disciplined person and when I make my mind up to do something I pull out all the stops.

The Goddess of Expectation, Venus, soon revealed her plan when Flavia came into the rehearsal room clutching our first number: Venus - the Bananarama hit. And with that, we finally started work.

But then the imp of Forgetfulness struck. No dance shoes arrived with the crew - and I had to rehearse in standard trainers instead. Unfortunately, they aren't the right thing for this sort of work and before I knew it I was hopping around the dance floor with a throbbing toe. Come Sunday, I was having a full-blown foot emergency and had to call on some expert chiropodist help.

But I wasn't giving up. Far from it. In fact, for three days Flavia continued to choreograph while I continued to limp around and did what I could to help. Forget Moira Shearer in The Red Shoes; it was just me with a red foot.

But while I am out my comfort zone in one way, I am so cosy in another. For whatever happens, I will have no regrets. I am not in it to win it, but here strictly to live my dream of getting fit and doing something I once could only have dreamed about. And for that, thank you Flavia. You are a goddess.
