Kristen Stewart joins Anaesthesia cast

Kristen Stewart will film a small role in new indie drama 'Anaesthesia'.
The 'Twilight' actress has joined the cast of Tim Blake Nelson's new ensemble drama, which follows a group of university students whose philosophy professor has a profound effect on their lives.
Deadline reports Stewart will shoot her scenes over the course of a 'few days'.
The actress' latest role joins a busy schedule of movies including politically-charged thriller 'Camp X-Ray', directed by Peter Sattler, and Oliver Assayas' new drama 'Sils Maria'.
In 'Camp X-Ray', Stewart plays a young woman who joins the army in a bid to escape her small-town life, only to find herself sent to work at Guantanamo Bay detention camp. Suffering from abuse from the men in her charge, she forms an unlikely bond with a man who has been incarcerated for eight years.
Stewart will then join an A-list cast including Juliette Binoche and Chloe Grace Moretz in 'Sils Maria'.
French filmmaker Assayas wrote the film about an actress suffering from a midlife crisis specifically for Binoche, who he worked with on 'Summer Hours'. Binoche's character becomes obsessed with a young actress (Moretz) who is playing the part which originally made her famous, while Stewart has been cast as Binoche's assistant.

Helena Bonham Carter is addicted to crisps


Helena Bonham Carter is addicted to crisps.
The 'Sweeney Todd' actress can't get enough of Walkers crisps and says she likes nothing more than sitting at home stuffing the potato-based snacks in her mouth.
Asked what her most lowbrow indulgence is, Helena replied: 'Stuffing my face with salt and vinegar crisps, alternating with cheese and onion - Walkers, not posh Kettle Chips.'
The 47-year-old actress - who has children Billy, ten, and Nell, five, with her partner of 12 years, Tim Burton - enjoys her home comforts so much that she once had a special hot water bottle designed to warm her nose on the move.
Quizzed about her must-have piece of clothing, Helena said: 'If my hot water bottle is counted as a garment, it would be that. Tim Burton once designed a mini portable one for the tip of my nose. Otherwise, my FitFlop sheep-lined slipper boots.'
The British star says she would like to play fairy godmother to London and spread joy by giving people the gift of song and dance.
Helena told Stylist magazine: 'It's a very long list, but how about love, food and warmth for those who don't have it all around? Would also put small jazz-band pianos in public places for spontaneous sing-alongs and dancing. And create a day of no technology for adults as well as children.'

Kourtney Kardashian: Scott Disick prefers natural make-up


Kourtney Kardashian says Scott Disick prefers a natural look.
The reality star admits her long-term partner - with whom she has children Mason, three, and Penelope, 16 months - fancies her the most when she tones down her make-up.
She told E! News: 'He likes less-is-more make-up, which still requires some work.'
The busy mother-of-two has perfected the art of getting ready in under five minutes so she can make the most of spending time with her kids.
She explained: 'When I'm just with the kids and no work, and just in full mommy mode, I have my five-minute make-up routine. It's just tinted moisturizer, our [Kardashian Glow] bronzer and some mascara.'
The multitasking brunette says her hectic schedule and family life means she can't afford to spend much time on her beauty regime anymore, but she is happy to make the sacrifice. 
She added: 'It's super fast. I'm watching two kids and trying to [get ready] at the same time.'
Kourtney recently teamed up with her sisters Kim and Khloe to work on the Kardashian Kollection for Lipsy - an exclusive range of women's clothing - and a 25-piece jewellery range which will be exclusively stocked in UK retailer Argos.

Sandra Bullock: Gravity made me want to scream




Sandra Bullock says filming 'Gravity' made her scream inside.
The actress has admitted shooting Alfonso CuarĂ³n's space disaster thriller left her feeling extremely 'uncomfortable', but she was able to channel her discomfort into making her astronaut character more believable.
The demanding technical constraints of the shoot meant that Bullock spent days filming alone in confined spaces, which she initially resented.
She explained to Digital Spy: 'The technical aspects and all the quiet and being told where to start and where to finish, all those things just made you scream inside. After a while you think, I'm uncomfortable so I'll use that, I'm in pain so I'll use that, I'm alone so I'll use that. 
'It gave me a lot of tools that I didn't think would be valuable. And you realised how lucky we were to have that atmosphere.'
The 49-year-old actress - who stars opposite Hollywood heavyweight George Clooney - is proud that 'Avatar' helmer James Cameron branded the film the best space movie he's ever seen.
She enthused: 'He would know. He pioneered the recent technology that broke things open for everyone. It's a testament to everyone who was involved in this film. 
'But having it come from Cameron, who's always pushing the envelope in that field, is pretty sweet validation.'

Jennifer Lawrence had overwhelming crush on Justin Timberlake



Jennifer Lawrence says Justin Timberlake was her childhood crush.
The 'Hunger Games: Catching Fire' actress used to spend hours gazing at pictures of the handsome 'N Sync singer when she was a teenager and sometimes she'd feel sick because she liked him so much. 
Speaking in a Yahoo! fan QA, Jennifer said: 'My teen crush [was] Justin Timberlake. Early 90s Justin Timberlake. I remember buying the 'N Sync CD. Remember how CDs had the pull-out picture things? I got so overwhelmed with hormones I almost threw up.'
The 23-year-old star also shared her funniest memory from filming the highly-anticipated 'Hunger Games' sequel, in which she reprises her role as fearless heroine Katniss Everdeen.
Jennifer believed she had a supernatural experience on set when she felt ancient spirits slap her butt, but realised after watching the playback that it was actually newcomer Sam Clafin's trident poking her in the rear.
She recalled: 'We were in the middle of doing this scenes with the monkeys, There were all these choreographed fight. Something just whipped my butt. Something slapped my butt. 
'We're watching playback. Josh [Hutcherson] is telling me it's ancient spirits and I'm believing it. Then we slowed down. 
'The end of Sam's trident and flew off and whacked me in the butt. There was a red mark on my butt. That was funny.'
