Portman filmed her starring role in the video for Banhart’s Carmensita, a track from his 2007 album Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon, last month.

Mark RonsonSuperproducer Mark Ronson is so terrified at the prospect of going bald he refuses to cut his hair off.

The musician previously sported a close-shaved do in his 20s, but insists he won’t ever revert back to his old style in case incase his follicles don’t re-sprout.

The 32-year-old revealed: “I loved having short hair, but I was 26 and now I’m 32. I’m not sure I could shave it off again - I’m scared it might not grow back.”

Osbourne made her disparaging public remark about Simmons during her husband’s recent Australian tour.

She said: “Gene’s a prat. He’s just a silly man in a silly wig.”
