She's known as a ditzy diva, but Mariah Carey says she considers herself more of a "freakin' prude."

"It's a dichotomy, I understand," the 37-year-old bombshell singer tells Allure magazine. "I understand that people think I'm a ditzy moron."

For ditzy, she's doing well since she notes: "I have three personal assistants just to keep up with my schedule."

The hip-hop and R&B superstar's newest single "Touch My Body" - the lead track on her latest album, "E=MC2" - is poised to be her 18th No. 1 single, tying with the Beatles for having the most chart-toppers.

Carey, the best-selling female singer of all time, showed off her new hit and slimmed-down figure on NBC's "Saturday Night Live" this weekend, sporting stilettos and a micro-miniskirt.

The once-married superstar, who has been romantically linked to Yankees captain Derek Jeter and rapper Eminem, said fans would be mistaken if they think she has loose morals. She insists she's never had a one-night stand.

"I'm Mary Poppins: I'm what the buttoned-up girls are supposed to be," Carey told Allure.

Thomas Jane was arrested in Kern County, CA, Monday morning for driving under the influence of alcohol. “The Punisher” actor was travelling at "an extremely high rate of speed" on I-5 just before 3 a.m. in his Maserati and subsequently failed a number of breathalyzer tests, according to the California Highway Patrol. The 39-year-old was also cited for driving on a suspended license.

Jane just finished directing the honeymoon thriller, “The Dark Country,” and is also top lining the Pras Michel-produced “The Mutant Chronicles” alongside thespian John Malkovich.

“The Mist” actor posted bail this morning and was charged with a DUI, operating a vehicle on a suspended license and driving with a blood alcohol level above the 0.08 percent legal limit. All of which are misdemeanor charges.

The actor is married to actress Patricia Arquette. Officers with Kern County Sheriff’s Department say, “Jane showed cooperation when being taken to jail and has been released.” This was the actor’s first DUI arrest. His arraignment is set for April 9.

Daniel Radcliffe's friends are pleading with him to quit his "disgusting" 20-a-day cigarette habit.

The 18-year-old actor has become so addicted to nicotine he has been nicknamed 'Harry Puffer' by his co-stars.

A source said: "Daniel has been smoking up to 20 cigarettes a day. Every time they call 'cut', he lights up. It's disgusting.

"Friends, including co-stars Rupert Grint and Emma Watson, have been warning him about the dangers of smoking. But he doesn't take any notice."


Daniel reportedly got through a whole pack of cigarettes when he had to film a difficult stunt last week.

The insider added to Britain's The Sun newspaper: "He was really nervous about the scene and was sparking up constantly."

Movie bosses are said to be worried Daniel's habit could tarnish his schoolboy image and have reportedly told him not to smoke in public.

However, their warnings have fallen on deaf ears and Daniel is still said to be "smoking like a trooper" on nights out.

The source said: "He's been having late nights out with stars including Kevin Spacey and Stephen Fry and been puffing up a storm."

Pop queen Madonna has dismissed reports that her marriage is on the rocks.

It has been suggested that the 49-year-old singer and her film director husband, Guy Ritchie, 39, are to split.

The pair, who have not been photographed together for weeks, were said to be leading separate lives.

Madonna was reportedly planning to take the couple's children to the US, while Ritchie would stay in London.

But Liz Rosenberg, Madonna's US spokeswoman, said: "I am delighted to confirm that Mr and Mrs Guy Ritchie remain happily married.

"Though they were in different countries recently - Madonna in the US doing promotion for her upcoming album Hard Candy and Guy finishing up post-production on his new film RocknRolla as well as completing a Nike commercial and working on several scripts in England - the family are joyfully back together at home in London.

"All is well and wonderful in the Ritchie household."


Rumours of trouble in the marriage intensified when Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels director Ritchie failed to appear at Madonna's induction into the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame in the US last week.

It was also reported that Ritchie furnished a wing of the couple's Marylebone townhouse for his private use.

Sounds like Sylvester Stallone's resurrection of Rambo may not have been a one time thing.

"I would like to take Rambo to another genre, experiment a little with the character," Sly told Sweden's Metro newspaper, BreakingNews.ie reported.

"It would definitely not be another war movie. I can't go any further with that than what I've already done. What it's going to be like, I'm not going to reveal at this point. But I'm already halfway though writing the manuscript."

There have been rumors, Tom Cruise trying to convert his friends Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith to Scientology for some time now, but apparently it’s been kicked into high gear.

Radar magazine is claiming that the Church of Scientology, “has also set its sights on African Americans, opening up a center in Harlem in 2003 and making a strong play for Hollywood supercouple Will Smith and Jada Pinkett.”

Wil Smith continuously denies the fact that he is gonna convert to Scientology but close friends of his are saying that “He’s been getting more and more…And it isn’t just him, it’s definitely Jada, too.”
