The rumour mill is going into over drive after oscar-winning actress Emma Stone and Justin Theroux were spotted together for the second time in less than a week.

The pair were spied leaving the Met Gala after party together and sharing a ride home. Also with them was actress Shailene Woodley, who is currently filming Season 2 of Big Little Lies.

But tongues were wagging about Emma and newly-single Justin, who just broke up with Jennifer Aniston earlier this year, because it’s the second time the two have been spied together. Last Wednesday, despite wearing inconspicuous clothing and hats pulled down, Emma and Justin were seen getting sushi together in New York.

Elton John is dishing out advice to Ed Sheeran about fame, but it sounds like poor Elton might be a bit bitter about being past his ‘heyday’.

Elton, who calls himself a ‘dear friend’ of Ed, compared their careers and had this to say:

You have a heyday and you have a rest, and the heyday can never be replaced. After that I had the common sense to know I’m not going to have a No1 every time straight away. I knew someone else would take over. It’s cyclical.

Okay, Elton. Just burst the lad’s bubble. Ed clearly knows he’s not going to be banging out no.1s forever.

Ed will go through that and I’ve talked to him about it. I’ve said, ‘There’ll come a time where this won’t happen every time and you have to accept that.”

Ed must seriously relish getting those texts from Elton every time he has a hit in the charts. Elton John also doesn’t understand why Ed Sheeran’s songs are still on the charts in 2018, particularly Shape of You which was released nearly 18 months ago.

 On the [American radio] chart, which is the middle-of-the-road chart, Ed is still No1 and Shape Of You is still in the chart. It’s like, ‘Why?’How many times do you want to listen to these things?

Err.. does it sound a bit like Elton is having a tough time accepting that his heyday is over? (Mirror)

Liam Payne has admitted he was relieved when One Direction broke up (a feeling many parents probably related to when they realized it meant no longer being forced to chaperone their kids at 1D concerts)

The former 1D singer has revealed that he wasn’t sad when the band went on a hiatus, saying:

I remember the day we finished, because of the place I was in, I was quite happy that we had a break. I said to the person with me at the time, “Thank god I don’t have to play that person again for a long time.”

Explaining how full-on being a member of the most famous boyband in the world was, Liam opened up about the difficulty of trying to grow and develop himself into an adult:

It was exhausting and I couldn’t keep up with myself. It made me a little bit nuts and distracted me a lot from the person I was…I put on a front that wasn’t really me.

But Liam says he feels more comfortable with the person he is now:

I went away and the person I was in the band, I’m not him now…It was all right to be that person then, but now, I need to be something totally different. Even going to see Louis the other day – it’s nice to meet people and have them see how you are now, because you can understand all the things you might have done wrong or the things you might have regretted doing.

Wow,  sounds like Liam has been doing a lot of deep soul-searching. Is he itching to get a little bit of 1D’s success back, now that he feels more adult? Watch this space! (Celebsnow)
