Steven Spielberg 'demanded Megan Fox be fired from Transformers after Hitler comment'

Steven Spielberg demanded Megan Fox be fired from the latest Transformers film after she insulted its director, it has been revealed.

The Hollywood legend was outraged after the screen beauty compared Michael Bay to Hitler during a press interview.

The 25-year-old actress was quickly dumped from the film and replaced by British model Rosie Huntingdon-Whitley.

Fox had tried to claim she left the third in the series of the films to pursue other acting opportunities.

But ahead of the July 4 premiere of Transformers 3 director Bay has revealed for the first time he was told to get rid of the actress.

He said: 'You know the Hitler thing. Steven (Spielberg) said, fire her right now.'

Spielberg is executive producer of the film which stars Shia LaBeouf.

Fox had appeared in the first two Transformers films and the roles helped her be named one of the sexiest women in the world.

She had been cast in the third film but shortly before production began she gave an interview to the British magazine Wonderland.

In it she said Bay wanted to be like Hitler on his sets.

Other crew members from the film hit back on a blog comparing Fox's acting to that of a porn star.

In an open letter posted on Michael Bay's website the crew member wrote: 'Michael found this shy, inexperienced girl, plucked her out of total obscurity thus giving her the biggest shot of any young actresses' life.

'He told everyone around to just trust him on his choice. He granted her the starring role in Transformers, a franchise that forever changed her life; she became one of the most googled and oogled women on earth.

'She was famous! She was the next Angelina Jolie, hooray! Wait a minute, two of us worked with Angelina – second thought – she's no Angelina. You see, Angelina is a professional.

'We know this quite intimately because we've had the tedious experience of working with the dumb-as-a-rock Megan Fox on both Transformers movies.'

The film's screenwriter Ehren Kruger told GQ magazine that Fox didn't seem interested when she arrived for rehearsals for Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

He said:'She seemed like an actress who didn't want to be part of it.'

LaBeouf told GQ:' She started s*** talking our captain. Which you can't do.'

Bay said he wasn't hurt by the Hitler comment.

Lauren Goodger flashes her diamond after claims Mark Wright 'made a move' on Jorgie Porter

Lauren Goodger today did her best to deny reports her relationship with Mark Wright is in trouble as she stepped out wearing her engagement ring.

It was claimed today that Lauren had moved out of the flat she shares with the TOWIE lothario after finding out he 'made a move' on Hollyoaks star Jorgie Porter.

The News of the World claimed renowned ladies' man Mark had tried his luck with pretty young blonde Jorgie during a night out in Liverpool on Thursday.

A source told the paper: 'It was clear to see he was making a move on her. As a single girl, she was loving it.

'He was drunk and showing off. During a game of poker, he was touching her hand and she was grabbing his leg.'

It was also claimed Mark had approached Jorgie's Hollyoaks co-star Gemma Merna during the evening out.

But Jorgie took to her Twitter page to write: 'Don't believe everythin u read guys..had fun night out wiv hollyoaks and towie but that was it!They'll be linkin me 2 arg next!night all x'

The claims are the latest in a string of reports about Mark's alleged cheating.

MailOnline told earlier this week how Lauren was furious after hearing Mark's ex Lucy Mecklenburgh's claims that she had kissed the reality star while they were on holiday in Marbella.

But it appears Lauren lives by the 'forgive and forget' motto, as she was seen happily flashing her engagement ring at a public appearance today.

After going without her solitaire diamond ring at a public appearance earlier this week, Lauren ensured all eyes were on the jewel as she promoted her fake tanning range Lauren's Way at the The New You Beauty Show in Hertford.

And Mark has also taken to Twitter to try and assure fans of his love for fiancée Lauren.

He wrote on the social networking site last night: 'On the way home in the spud mobil looking forward 2 bed hurry up @LaurenGoodger u best be in bed b4 me warming it up.'

And this morning, after the papers had come out, Mark then tweeted: 'Hi every1. Bit of breakfast with @LaurenGoodger then on to some shopping and lunch.'

Heidi Montag Showing off her curves

She was already skinny, but reality TV star Heidi Montag claims to have recently shed 27 pounds by spending more time at the gym than most people spend at work.

In a new interview, Heidi, 24, says she spent the last two months exercising 14 hours a day to transform her figure.

Now Heidi, who had already radically changed her body with at least ten plastic surgeries, appears to finally be satisfied with the way she looks.

'I've been working out from, like, 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. for two months now,' she told US Magazine.

At her heaviest, 5'2' reality TV star said she weighed 130 pounds, but felt needed to drastically trim down.

'I've been running a lot, and I've been doing weights,' she said.

Although it's curious how much she was really able to run with her self proclaimed 'E or F' cup breasts, which would obviously make intense physical exercise difficult.

Heidi has previously admitted to getting breast enlargement surgery along with a nose job, chin jobs, an eyebrow lift, fat injections and other surgeries.

Still, she felt she needed to lose weight to achieve a perfect bikini body.

'I've been working out really hard because I had this pool party and I was like, I have to be in shape,' she revealed to US.

Heidi attended that pool party yesterday in Las Vegas with runaway bride, Crystal Harris, on what would have been the Playmate’s wedding day to Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner.

'I'm doing okay,' Crystal told People as she headed off for some fun at Wet Republic inside the MGM Grand Hotel.

'I just had to get away. Today is the day and I just had to get away. I'm going back tonight so I just wanted to get away for the day.'

As her wedding day approached, She said she knew she didn't want to marry the man who's 60 years her senior.

'I wanted to be true to myself and be true to what was best for everybody,' Crystal admitted.

But Hefner's ex, Holly Madison isn't exactly a fan of Crystal's or her decision to spend the weekend in Sin City.

'That's a new low,' Holly Tweeted of Crystal's partying in Las Vegas.

'That's disgusting and whoever booked her is tacky,' she added, suggesting that Crystal had been paid to make her poolside appearance.

Amy Winehouse booed and jeered by Serbian crowd as she slurs and stumbles her way through Belgrade concert

Earlier this month she checked out of rehab and was given the go ahead to embark on her European tour.

But it would seem that Amy Winehouse has spectacularly fallen off the wagon as her Serbian fans found out to their horror last night.

The singer was booed as she took to the stage in Belgrade on the first leg of her 12-date stint, and looked intoxicated as she stumbled around the stage.

A representative for the singer said that upcoming festival dates in Istanbul on Monday and in Athens on Wednesday would be cancelled following the Belgrade show.

Her next show is scheduled for July 8 in Spain.

A statement released by Winehouse's management read: 'Despite feeling sure that she wanted to fulfill these commitments, she has agreed with management that she cannot perform to the best of her ability and will return home.

'She would like to apologize to fans expecting to see her at the shows but feels that this is the right thing to do.'

An hour after she was due to arrive on stage in Belgrade, after being introduced by one of her backing singers, she staggered on and made her way to the back to hug one of her guitarists.

Wearing a short green and black dress that accentuated her cosmetically-enhanced breasts, she sat down on one of the speakers and adjusted her shoes while her concerned backing singer asked if she was ok and steadied her back to her microphone.

Amy, 27, looked confused and then took off one of her shoes which she threw on the floor before walking unsteadily over to her microphone.

After missing her cue a couple of times, she proceeded to deliver a half-spoken and mumbled version of her song Just Friends, her last release back in 2008.

Halfway through, slurring her words which she had difficulty stringing together, she told the crowd at the city's Kalemegdan Park: 'Let me bring the band introduction.'

But then she tried to continue singing the song, smiling all the while, seemingly oblivious of how she was coming across to her fans.

After hugging herself and failing to sing most of the song, she then came back in as the band finished, looked surprised and then slurred 'Just Friends' into the microphone as an astonished crowd booed and halfheartedly clapped.

The situation didn't improve much throughout the concert, as the Back to Black singer disappeared off stage several times leaving her band playing.

And according to local press reports, the 20,000 fans described as a 'scandal' and a 'disaster'.

Fans were also angry as may had paid about £35 a ticket which is a lot of money in a country where the average salary is about £274 a month.

One fan angrily wrote on YouTube - where videos of her disastrous performance have been posted - that he was still mad at her.

They fumed: 'She started a show and turned her back to public (btw, for most of us it was not that easy to give the money for ticket because of the economic situation in Serbia) and that was just the beginning of her disrespect and bizarre behavior.

'She did not sang one song from beginning to the end, Some of them she didn't even tried to sing. Not a fan anymore'

Amy is due in Turkey tomorrow to play Istanbul's Kucuk Ciftlik Park and also has dates in Greece, Spain, Switzerland, Italy, Poland, Hungary and Romania, finishing up on 15 August at Iolanda Balas Soter Stadium, Bucharest.

Earlier this month she checked out of The Priory Clinic at the suggestion of her father, Mitch, over concerns she was drinking too much prior to her live shows.

Her spokesman said: 'Amy Winehouse has completed her assessment at the Priory Clinic in London and will continue as an outpatient.

'She is now looking forward to playing shows around Europe this summer and is raring to go.

'She would like to send a huge thanks to all her fans for the messages of support she has received over the last week and can't wait to see them.'

Sarah Harding gets some dolphin therapy in Miami

Planning a wedding can be a stressful business, as any bride-to-be will know.

But Girls Aloud star Sarah Harding appears to have found a novel way of dealing with her nuptial nerves - by getting dolphin therapy.

The 29-year-old singer, who is set to wed fiancé Tom Crane later this year, looked delighted as she swam with dolphins in Miami.

Wearing a neon green bikini under her wetsuit, Sarah beamed as she grabbed the dolphin's fin and was taken for a ride around the pool at the Dolphin Harbor Miami Seaquarium.

She was later seen kissing the mammal and shaking its fin with her hand in the pictures taken last week.

Sarah certainly appears to be enjoying her time in Miami, after flying out to the States to help Sir Richard Branson celebrate his Virgin Atlantic airline's 25th anniversary of connecting Miami and London.

Earlier in the week, Sarah showed off her bikini body as she relaxed by her hotel pool and basked in the sunshine.

The singer has apparently hired a personal trainer in a bid to be in the best shape possible for her big day.

And the results certainly showed as Sarah flaunted an enviable six pack as she strolled around the water's edge.

Sarah said recently she often struggle to accept her figure, but has been working hard with her trainer to perfect her physique.

She said: 'I could definitely be slimmer, but I'm working on it with my trainer.

'Do I have ugly days? All the time. I have breakouts, or days when I'm pictured with a double chin. I just think, "Urgh, I want to run away and hide." '

Speaking recently, Sarah said she and Tom are on top of their wedding plans, but still have a few final details to sort out.

She said: 'What we’re after at the moment is a band for the big day.

'We have someone special in mind but if we tell everyone who it is then we don’t get them it’ll be embarrassing so we’re going to see what they say first.'

And Sarah also refused to comment on whether she would become Mrs Crane after the wedding.

She teased: 'I DO know whether or not I’m taking Tom’s surname, but I’m not saying a thing. Everyone will just have to wait and see.'

Earlier last week, Sarah fulfilled her promotional duties by posing with Branson at Miami's International Airport on Wednesday to promote the anniversary.

Clad in a little red dress resembling the uniform of the cabin crew, Sarah posed for pictures in the Virgin boss's arms on top of a wing on one of his planes.

Talking to reporters at the event, Branson said: 'This is a fantastic milestone in Virgin Atlantic’s history.

‘Miami was the second route Virgin Atlantic launched two years after the airline began and to think that we are now a world class airline with 32 long haul destinations is a dream come true.’
