Hollywood Couple Alert: Has Zac Efron Found Love with Alexandra Storm in Monte Carlo?


It has been previously reported that Hollywood heartthrob Zac Efron ended his romance with actress Lily Collins. Now, has Zac Efron moved on and found new love with model Alexandra Storm?

The young actor has officially split with Lily Collins and the sources have claimed that the casual thing between the two has eventually fizzled out. What exactly went wrong? Well, Zac Efron was never really serious about Lily Collins according to one source. It is also not surprising that most people do not know that they were dating in the first place. Although Efron and Collins sparked the rumor of a budding romance, the hype between the couple did not really take off even though the two were spotted together a few times. Apparently, their actual relationship neither worked out.

Meanwhile, the Hollywood heartthrob has been spotted all over Europe where he enjoyed a boat ride in St. Tropez. “The Lucky One” actor made his way to Monte Carlo where he ended up being reclined in Alexandra Storm’s arms. Zac Efron was photographed cozying up on a holiday with the pretty brunette model while at the CafĂ© de Paris. The 24-year old actor was in town to celebrate the birthday of film writer and producer Mohammed Al Turki.

As for the “Mirror Mirror” actress, it will be most unlikely that the lovely Lily Collins shed any tear over the rumored hook-up of Efron and Storm. Recently, she was photographed holding hands with the “Harry Potter” star Jamie Campbell Bower. So, this certainly looks as though Zac Efron and Lily Collins has moved on and gotten over their split without any problems. Now, is Zac Efron really dating Alexandra Storm or are they just good friends? Is he serious this time with her?

Queen Elizabeth Visits Leeds As Part of Diamond Jubilee Tour


As part of Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee Tour of the United Kingdom, she is visiting the metropolitan borough and city of Leeds. The 86-year old monarch is visiting the entire United Kingdom in celebration of her 60th year on the throne.

Queen Elizabeth is joined by her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, as she tours the city of Leeds. Her visit will include great performances by choirs as well as personally meeting the local residents. Plus, there will be acrobatic display and several musical performances for the royals while visiting Leeds.
"It is a great honor for Leeds to welcome the queen and the Duke of Edinburgh to the city during their Diamond Jubilee tour,” Ann Castle, the city’s mayor said. "We are very pleased to be able to demonstrate to them what a marvelous city Leeds is and how wonderful its people are," the mayor added.
Recently, it has been revealed that the popularity of Queen Elizabeth has soared high in the United Kingdom. For this year, the influential monarch is generally favored by 80% of Britons which was increased by 6% since January.

However, Queen Elizabeth only managed to come in at third place from a survey of 2,009 people for the overall list of popularity. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge came in at first and second place, respectively. Meanwhile, Prince Harry came in at fourth place with 79% which was increased by 7% from the previous rating. The Duchess of Cornwall happens to be the most unpopular member of the Royal Family with just a 33% rating approval from the Britons.

Hollywood Couple News: Is Justin Theroux Controlling Jennifer Aniston’s Finances?


This may sound a fishy-smelling rumor but according to a source, Justin Theroux is now being alleged to controlling Jennifer Aniston’s money. The actress’ estimated net worth is over $100 million and reports are stating that Aniston has a new business manager to keep an eye on her finances. Who is it? Obviously, it is none other than her beau.

According to reports, the Emmy award-winning actress is allowing her boyfriend to control her financial future. "He wants to turn her into a shrewder businesswoman and expand her empire," the source shared. "Justin is coming off a major career setback since Wanderlust and Rock of Ages tanked and he is already talking about sinking her money into another collaboration. He knows how much money she has and is actively trying to double it. But the move has some of her good friends worried," the source continued. 

The couple’s expensive European vacation, hipster threads and some spa treatments surely cost a lot of money. With that, it is enough to say that some of Jennifer Aniston’s good friends are really worried about her letting Theroux takeover her bank account. Meanwhile, Jennifer Aniston seems to be completely clueless about what her boyfriend’s motives are because she trusts Justin Theroux 100%.

Would that be a really smart move for her? However, do you think Aniston's business advisers would allow her to do something like this? Of course, they would strongly discourage her from handing financial control over to Justin Theroux. For the last two seasons of the hit TV series “Friends,” Jennifer Aniston received $1 million per episode. She still commands a large paycheck since she has just been included in the Forbes’ highest-paid actress annual list. Aniston’s agents are doing just fine and she may not really need her boyfriend’s help in making business moves.

‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Film Critics Receive Death Threats?


The website “RottenTomatoes.com” has deliberately suspended online comments after receiving threats to the film reviewers who berated the highly anticipated movie “The Dark Knight Rises” before it officially opens in the movie theaters. Harsh reactions and comments flooded the aggregating website due to the negative reviews of the film. 

The film that caused this kind of stir on the website is director Christopher Nolan’s final installment in the Batman trilogy. Movie fans wrote profane and threatening remarks to the film critics. According to the site’s editor-in-chief, Matt Atchity, the website has suspended user comments for the first time as a precaution to the threats posted online. However, Atchity said that by the end of the week, posts about “The Dark Knight Rises” reviews will most likely be restored.

"The job of policing the comments became more than my staff could handle for that film, so we stopped the comments altogether," said Atchity. "It just got to be too much hate based on reactions to reviews of movies that people hadn't even seen," Atchity further added.

There are other film review sites such as “MetaCritic.com” and “MovieReviewIntelligence.com” who do not allow posting user comments online. Sometimes, these sites just do not permit posting the comments before a movie opens in cinemas. Meanwhile, Matt Atchity revealed that the website is now considering a move with the commenting system like in “Facebook” which may cut down excess anonymous posts.

"There are a lot of options on the table," said Atchity.  He is worried that a similar backlash will happen again when director Peter Jackson’s “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” will be released this year. "We may do away with comments completely or get to a place where comments are only activated after a movie opens. It's unfortunate when the conversation turns ugly," Atchity added. “RottenTomatoes.com” is owned by the social movie site “Flixster.com” which is associated with the Warner Bros. company.
