Robert Pattinson ate ‘nothing but salmon' for months
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles
Robert Pattinson has 'eaten nothing but salmon' for months.
The 'Batman' actor insisted he's 'like a kid' with needing a routine when he's busy working on film sets, and recently he was having salmon for every meal of the day.
He told GQ magazine: 'I'm kind of like a kid. I'm doing a lot of jobs in a row and I get very obsessed about needing to have regimented behavior — otherwise I'd feel crazy afterwards.
'But I was having lunch yesterday and I was like, I can't taste salmon anymore. And I realised I've eaten nothing but salmon for like, months.
'It's like I have a seal's diet: I genuinely have been eating salmon three times a day.'
The 38-year-old star is no stranger to a fish-based diet, and he recalled a time where he would only tuck into canned tuna on film sets.
He said: 'I used to only eat tuna out of a can when I was working — I just put Cholula hot sauce on a can of tuna.
'Someone saw me doing it once and they were like, that's absolutely disgusting.
'And then suddenly I kind of got afraid of mercury poisoning, so I switched to salmon. Someone told me I could just get mercury poisoning from salmon anyway. But yeah: I endorse.'
The 'Twilight Saga' actor joked he also supports 'hyper-loading caffeine' early in the day. He quipped: 'I definitely endorse hyper-loading caffeine right at the beginning of the day.
You just need to basically live your entire day in a kind of manic state. 'But I can't do Celsius — it's too much. That feels like I've kind of gotten on a roller coaster and I can't get off it.
'My favorite thing is instant coffee, more than anything else. It's very English. I like it when it looks like oil — that's what my espresso is, just barely dissolved coffee granules.'

Miley Cyrus reveals why she felt ‘really well prepared' for fame when she was cast as Hannah Montana
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Miley Cyrus felt 'really well prepared' for fame. The 32-year-old pop star found major success in her teenage years when she was cast in the title role of the Disney Channel sitcom 'Hannah Montana', but as the daughter of 'Achy Breaky Heart' hitmaker Billy Ray Cyrus and goddaughter of country legend Dolly Parton, she insisted that she has always had an 'understanding' of the how the business of celebrity works in a way that perhaps someone else would not. Speaking on The New York Times 'The Interview' podcast, she explained: 'I've known fame since the moment I was born, I've never known anything else so I was really well prepared in a way that really hard to train yourself to know what to expect on everything that fame can bring. 'But I already had the handbook because they did the same thing to my dad, and to Dolly and to everyone around me. Dolly is a great example of that, so I felt know what I think it is? I understand the business I'm in. I am in the music industry, I'm in the record business. 'When I sign a contract, they're buying records that they wish to sell, so I understand that I am setting myself up to become merchandise. 'I am committing to them that I not only want to bring success to myself, but to them also. So I understand the music industry.' The 'Easy Lover' songstress - who has just released her ninth studio album 'Something Beautiful' - only received her first Grammy Award in 2024 for her hit song 'Flowers' and had spent years wondering what she had to do to get that sort of recognition but, prior to her win, had decided that the 'validation' she craved came from her millions of fans around the globe instead. She said: 'There were other Disney artists who dominated in those categories. I don't know who else before that, but there was The Jonas Brothers. It was boys, so they didn't have a character to shed, but because I wore a wig and I was a pop star...I remember being broken-hearted because The Jonas Brothers got asked to perform with Stevie Wonder, and I never got an opportunity like that as a young girl.

‘Squid Game' Director Honoured at Gotham Awards for Global Impact
Hwang Dong-hyuk, the visionary behind Netflix's global sensation Squid Game, was awarded the prestigious Creator Tribute at the Gotham Awards in New York on Monday, in recognition of his groundbreaking contribution to television. Accepting the award in English, Hwang described the continuing success of Squid Game as 'a miracle,' reflecting on how a once-rejected Korean script became a worldwide phenomenon over 12 years. 'Four years ago, when Squid Game won the Breakthrough Series Award, I called it a miracle,' Hwang said. 'Standing here again tonight, I believe that miracle still continues.' Hwang's remarks struck a humble tone, especially when reflecting on the meaning behind the Gotham trophy. 'It's not shiny or fancy like an Emmy or an Oscar,' he said. 'But it reminds us not to be blinded by the glamor of success and to carry the responsibility that comes with it.' Actor Lee Jung-jae, who portrays the main character Seong Gi-hun, introduced Hwang during the ceremony. 'What sets Squid Game apart is the depth of Director Hwang's vision,' Lee said, praising the series for its sharp critique of inequality and human resilience beneath its thrilling exterior. The Creator Tribute, a category introduced in 2023, honours creators who challenge the limits of television. The Gotham Awards committee described Hwang's work as 'high-stakes storytelling combined with sharp cultural commentary.'

Demi Moore recalls feeling ‘terrified' by General Hospital role
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Demi Moore felt 'a little terrified' when she was cast in 'General Hospital'. The 62-year-old actress joined the cast of the hit soap opera in 1981, and the role proved to be a real turning point in her career. The Hollywood star told People: 'I think the first big moment that kind of gave me a little bit of encouragement of, wow, this could be possible, is when I got 'General Hospital' because it was a real job on a show that was successful for a soap opera. 'In fact, it was at a heightened state because Elizabeth Taylor had just been a guest on a soap opera.' Demi quickly became convinced that she had a long-term future in the entertainment industry. Demi - who became the world's highest-paid actress in the 90s - recalled: 'Literally, it was a month before my 19th birthday. And so it was like a real job where I was going to be paid and have an actual salary. Meaning that I didn't have to have another job. I could actually live by doing this thing that I loved and hoped I could do. So that was like the first moment to really kick it off.' Despite this, Demi still felt anxious about joining the cast of the hit TV show. Looking at a photo from a publicity shoot for 'General Hospital', Demi said: 'I got 'General Hospital' a month before my 19th birthday, so I think I'm 19 years old. Super dolled up, heavy duty made up. 'You know, I just was so excited for all of it. But if I'm looking at this photo, I think I was probably a little terrified also.'
