Aubrey O'Day claims Diddy influenced her surgery decisions
Aubrey O'Day has suggested Sean 'Diddy' Combs influenced her decision to get plastic surgery. The 41-year-old singer stars in Danity Kane, the band created by Diddy, and Aubrey has revealed how the hip-hop star influenced her decision to go under the knife. During an appearance on Botched Presents: Plastic Surgery Rewind, Aubrey explained: "It started with being in a girl group. The demands I noticed of my looks. Diddy was ... this is a hard topic for me. I was the sexy one, and that needed to be who I was at all times." Aubrey admitted to having one big regret about her surgeries, describing her lips as being "very ducky". She said: "I immediately think of these f****** lips on the top of my face. "They're, like, very uneven, they stick out, they're very ducky. You know, not all surgeons are built the same and some don't have the balls to tell you we need to stop here." Diddy was recently found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution at a trial in New York. However, the music mogul was acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges. Aubrey took to social media following the trial to express her concerns. She wrote on Instagram at the time: "I'm still unpacking the magnitude of it all. The cultural weight of this decision is immeasurable. It is heartbreaking to witness how many lives have been impacted by their experiences with Sean Combs—only for those stories to fall short in the eyes of a jury." Meanwhile, Aubrey denied having plastic surgery in a 2019 interview. The singer claimed at the time that she simply knew lots of beauty "tricks". Aubrey told Us Weekly: "I've had lip fillers and Botox. I put a lot of filters. I know all the tricks and I use them." The music star also insisted she's not bothered by criticism of her appearance. Asked if she's concerned by her critics, Aubrey replied: "Not at all. When I was 17 maybe. I think the worst comment I ever read, and then I didn't read any more, was, 'She looks like an old leather handbag that's been put in the dryer 15 times.' That was one of my faves."

Logan Lerman hails 'talented and good-looking' co-star Brad Pitt
Logan Lerman thinks Brad Pitt is the "coolest-looking person" he's ever met. The 33-year-old actor first met Brad, 61, during his childhood, and he relished starring alongside him in Fury, the 2014 war film. Logan told Interview magazine: "I met Brad when I was a little kid as a fan at a restaurant. He was in full leather pants, leather button-up, just the coolest-looking person I'd ever seen in my life. Then we worked together and became friends. "It's nice when you meet people you admire and they are not fussy and particular. They just want to make something great. I've worked with some people, who shall remain nameless, that aren't like that." Logan has worked with some "obnoxious people" during his career - but he insists that Brad was friendly and professional. The movie star said: "I will not [name them], but wouldn't it be fun if I just started bashing all the obnoxious people I've worked with? But Brad was so giving." Logan recalled being blown away by Brad's talent and good looks, too. He added: "You're just like, 'What the hell?' And he's humble." Meanwhile, Logan recently joined the cast of Only Murders in the Building and the actor admitted that he found the show's set to be "oddly fun". Logan stars in season five of the hit TV show, and the actor revealed that he relished the experience of working with the likes of Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. Speaking to People, he explained: "It's an oddly fun set to be on." The actor admitted that "sometimes, sets are not that enjoyable". However, he hailed the Only Murders set for being "a really good one". He shared: "It's so great. That's a really fun show to work on. I had a really good time." Despite this, Logan is determined to remain tight-lipped about his on-screen character. The actor doesn't want to ruin any surprises for fans of the murder mystery show. He said: "I don't want to ruin anything, but I'm excited for people to see it."

Brutal twist after Taylor Swift's celebrity romance
Don't miss out on the headlines from Hook Ups & Break Ups. Followed categories will be added to My News. Bad blood indeed. Matty Healy's mum, Denise Welch, isn't over the 'heartbreak' her son endured after his short-lived romance with Taylor Swift ended — that's why she couldn't stay quiet on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Thursday. 'It's a horrible thing to have the most famous person in the world saying that your son broke her heart when it was the other way around, and then you can't even defend yourself,' a source told Us Weekly on Saturday. They added, 'She's saying the mother-in-law stuff because that's where Matty thought it was headed. She's entitled to her opinion.' Reps for Welch and Healy did not immediately return Page Six's request for comment. When asked by Andy Cohen what she thought of Swift's Tortured Poet's Department album — purported to be about The 1957 frontman and his romance with the singer that lasted only about a month in May 2023 — Welch declared that 'not being her mother-in-law is a role that I am glad that I lost.' Swift and Healy were spotted together in NYC in 2023. Picture: Robert Kamau/GC Images His mum made her position on the relationship very clear recently. Picture: WWHL As the audience gasped, the Celebrity Big Brother UK star, 67, quickly added that she doesn't 'have anything against [Swift] at all,' and called the situation 'tricky.' 'She — listen, you're not allowed to say anything, and then she writes a whole album about it,' Welch said of the Love Story hitmaker. Us Weekly's insider said it's been difficult for Welch to keep quiet when it comes to her son's former romance. 'Any mum can imagine what it would feel like — but then you have to multiply it by a million because of how famous [Taylor] is,' they told the outlet. 'I wish I could say she's used to it, but she's not.' She's now in a relationship with Travis Kelce. Pictures: Killatrav/Instagram The source also said that the reality star 'is still Matty's mum at the end of the day, and it was bloody hard for her to stay quiet during the whole ordeal.' 'Now that time has gone by, she's saying what she can because she knows that her son got hurt.' The insider asserted that 'you can't blame a mum for standing up for her child,' and called their split 'terrible' for Healy. Swift, 35, has since gone on to a widely publicised relationship with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, while Healy, 36, is engaged to model and actress Gabbriette Bechtel. On Watch What Happens Live, Welch insisted the family has 'moved on' from the alleged drama. 'He is very happy with his amazing fiancee Gabriella, who is gorgeous,' she said.
