Katy Perry offers reassurance to fans
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles
Katy Perry has reassured fans that she is 'OK' amid a wave of online criticism.
The 'Firework' hitmaker has faced a backlash, largely due to her participation in Blue Origin's recent all-female space flight, as well as for working with controversial producer Dr. Luke - who has been accused of abuse by Kesha - and also faced mocking over the choreography on her current 'Lifetimes' tour, but as she has thanked her supporters for trying to uplift her, she insisted she simply sends 'love' to her critics.
She commented on an Instagram fan account: 'I'm so grateful for you guys. We're in this beautiful and wild journey together. I can continue to remain true to myself, heart open and honest especially because of our bond.
'I love you guys and have grown up together with you and am so excited to see you all over the world this year! Please know I am ok, I have done a lot work around knowing who I am, what is real and what is important to me.
'My therapist said something years ago that has been a game changer, 'no one can make you believe something about yourself that you don't already believe about yourself' and if I ever do have any feelings about it then it's an opportunity to investigate the feeling underneath it.
'When the 'online' world tries to make me a human Piñata, I take it with grace and send them love, cause I know so many people are hurting in so many ways and the internet is very much so a dumping ground for unhinged and unhealed. (sic)'

Paris Hilton's parents helped her remain ‘grounded'
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Paris Hilton has always been a 'down-to-earth girl'. The 44-year-old star has credited her parents for instilling a 'strong work ethic' into her, and Paris believes she's been unaffected by her own fame and success. Paris - who starred on the reality series 'The Simple Life' between 2003 and 2007 - told HELLO! magazine: 'I feel as though I've been the same my whole life. My parents instilled a strong work ethic in me from when I was very young and that has always kept me grounded. 'I remember when the very first 'Simple Life' episode aired, my mom took me aside and told me that my life was about to change forever but that I should never stop being the same down-toearth girl I am. I've never forgotten that.' Paris has always been very ambitious, and she doesn't have any intention of slowing down. The reality TV star explained: 'I love making enter - tainment. I love making products. I love being creative and making people happy. That is what I've tried to do my whole career. ' I feel lucky that I've been able to do everything and be successful at it at the same time.' Earlier this year, Paris hailed 'Stars Are Blind' as the 'most iconic pop song ever made'. The blonde beauty released the hit single back in 2006 and Paris still sings the song in the shower. She told Us Weekly: 'I was actually just singing it in the shower this morning because it's the most iconic pop song ever made. My favorite song.' Paris has enjoyed success in various fields, but she's 'always' thinking of new ideas. Paris - who is married to entrepreneur Carter Reum - shared: 'I have ADHD so my brain does not stop moving, and I'm always thinking of ideas. 'I'm such a night owl even if I'm trying to go to bed. So it depends. If I have to wake up at like six in the morning for w o r k t h e next day, I will force myself to go to sleep a t 1 1 or 12.

Olivia Munn didn't realise she was focusing on ‘things that didn't matter' until cancer fight
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Olivia Munn didn't realise she was focusing on 'things that didn't matter' until she was diagnosed with cancer. The actress, 44, was told she had bilateral breast cancer in April 2023 and since then has undergone five surgeries including a double mastectomy, a hysterectomy and lymph node dissection. Opening up about the new outlook on life the gruelling health fight has given her, she told a FYC event in Los Angeles while proming her new Apple TV+ series 'Your Friends and Neighbors': 'I don't think I realised how much I was focusing on things that didn't matter until I had a crashing moment in my life, which was being diagnosed with breast cancer.' She continued: 'It's unfortunate, I think, when something that big has to kind of turn your head around to look back at how you've been living and realising like, 'Oh, wait, these things don't matter.' 'But, at the same time, that's, I guess, the blessing in those moments.' Olivia revealed the details of her diagnosis and treatment earlier this year and has since spoken openly about how the ordeal has shifted her priorities. The 'X-Men: Apocalypse' star said she now appreciates her time with loved ones more than ever, especially with her partner, 41-year-old comedian John Mulaney, and their two children – three-year-old son Malcolm and seven-month-old daughter Méi. She said: 'So when I have energy to get up in the morning and I have energy to be with my family and my friends, and I get to work with amazing people, it's truly, as saccharine as it might sound, when I get up and I'm here and I get to see the sky and I see my children playing and I get to talk to my friends – I just need that.

Seth Rogen loves The 40-Year-Old Virgin's ‘filthiness'
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Seth Rogen loved cinemagoers embracing the 'filthiness' of 'The 40-Year-Old Virgin'. The 43-year-old actor starred alongside Paul Rudd and Steve Carell in the 2005 comedy film, and Seth still has fond memories of making the movie. He told People: 'It was the first movie I made where I feel like … I was a co-producer on the movie and I helped write a lot of it with Steve Carell and Judd [Apatow].' Seth had a big role in creating the movie's tone and he loves that it was so warmly received by film fans. He said: 'It was the first movie that I was a part of that I really had a creative voice in, and a lot of the R-rated humor and tone came from me really advocating for that. 'And so it was really rewarding when it came out and people really responded to both the heart and the filthiness of it.' Seth and his writing partner, Evan Goldberg, now have their own production company, and the comedy star previously reflected on his changing status in Hollywood. Speaking to Sharp magazine, Seth explained: 'There was a meeting with an executive who was giving us notes when we were young who said, 'I got into this because I love movies and now it's my job to ruin them.' 'That one sentence really resonated heavily with us. Most importantly, we started to view it as being very comedic, like, it's a very funny dynamic if you love movies and the people associated with them. 'A lot of these people who work at studios just want to be liked by the filmmakers and the actors and the writers, and they just want to feel as though they're part of the creative side of things. But at the same time, they're constantly having to do things for their own self-preservation.'
