Amy Winehouse has been granted a US visa just 24 hours after she was banned from entering America to attend the Grammy Awards - but she still won’t travel to Los Angeles to perform at the ceremony.

The British singer was initially refused a visa at the US embassy in London on Thursday, because of a drug conviction in Norway last October (07).

Veteran singer/actress Bette Midler will retire from showbusiness once the curtain comes down on her two-and-a-half-year run of shows in Las Vegas because she doesn’t want to die onstage.

The 62-year-old is taking over from Celine Dion as the resident act at the Colosseum venue at the Caesar’s Palace hotel + casino later this month, where she’ll perform The Showgirl Must Go On for 30 months.

Divorcee Jeff Goldblum has vowed never to get married again, branding relationships a waste of time.

The Jurassic Park star has resigned himself to living the single life - insisting he has put too much time and energy into his previous relationships to warrant getting married again.

Goldblum has had a string of previous failed relationships - being wed twice, once to actress Patricia Gaul and then again to Stuart Little star Geena Davis.
