Funnyman Ben Stiller has laughed off reports he suffers from bipolar disorder, insisting there is nothing wrong with his mental health.

The Zoolander star has long been rumoured to have the illness, after he once made a quip about having a split personality in a magazine interview.

Death Wish director Michael Winner has defied doctors’ advice to amputate his diseased leg, insisting he would “rather die than have it cut off”.

The filmmaker is in a critical condition in the private London Hospital after falling ill with an unknown condition while on holiday in Barbados earlier this month.

Boozy songstress Amy Winehouse has been shortlisted for two categories in the prestigious Brits.

The 23-year-old North Londoner is a favourite to win Best Album for her critically acclaimed Back To Black, as well as British Female Solo Artist.

A source close to the star said: “Amy is really pleased to be shortlisted and honoured that some are tipping her to win. She’ll probably go out now and have a pint or two to celebrate.”

British actress Rachel Weisz expected her filmmaker fiance Darren Aronofsky to be “intense and weird”, but she was thrilled to discover he’s not as dark and brooding as his movies.

The Constant Gardener star admires Aronofsky’s talent for making deep, depressing movies like Requiem For A Dream and PI while maintaining a lighter, more fun-loving attitude towards everyday life.
