Paul Simon is to be honoured by the US Library of Congress for his impressive catalogue of work.

The Simon And Garfunkel star will be the recipient of the first annual Gershwin Prize for Popular Song at a gala in May.

The newly-created honour will be given to a composer or performer whose lifetime contributions “exemplify the standard of excellence associated with (George and Ira) Gershwin.”

Borat star Sacha Baron Cohen and his long term Australian fiancee Isla Fisher are set to become first-time parents after blurting out the exciting news at a Los Angeles pub.

The couple made a special announcement to friends at the Cat + Fiddle on 11 March.

Actress Fisher, who recently converted to Judaism, felt she had to reveal her big news after sparking suspicion when she turned down alcohol and just drank water.
