As Sheryl Crow celebrates 10 years since winning her battle against breast cancer, she is sympathetic about Shannen Doherty’s decision to open up about her struggles.

Crow said during a BlogHer conference: “I think that [talking about cancer] takes the fear out of it. I mean, it is a scary thing, but one of the problems we have with breast cancer in general is getting women to go and get a mammography. A lot of us who are moms are too busy, or we don’t really want to know. I think a lot of women really kind of don’t want to know. In some instances, we’re poorly insured or uninsured. And until we find a cure, early detection is our cure. The statistic of the cure rate at five years is 100 percent if it’s detected early.”

The 54-year-old singer also acknowledged how times have changed as people have more liberty to speak about such sensitive conditions.

“So I love women who are coming out and saying, ‘This is what I’ve done. I’ve been proactive and I’m celebrating my life. It’s just really hard to imagine that 30 years ago, no one had spoken about having breast cancer until Betty Ford. When she came out and announced [she had it], it was very taboo and shocking,” she shared.

The Soak Up the Sun hitmaker says her diagnosis made her realize what was important in life, adding: “My diagnosis was a real game changer. At that point, I was 44, and I was the picture of great health. I’ve had a lot of people say, ‘Yeah, these things help you redefine your life,’ but for me, I really refined my life. I began to really hack away at the things that were not important anymore and the things that were energy sucking. I learned how to say no.”

Gisele Bundchen made a special appearance during the Olympic Games’ opening ceremonies in Brazil. The supermodel tried not to cry during the event as she felt deeply proud about her country.

She told Access Hollywood: “Believe me, I was very emotional – I was really breathing very deeply not to cry. Imagine if I walked on the runway crying! My country, I feel, it’s about happiness and joy. The Brazilian people are so welcoming and loving, and I can’t walk crying – what kind of representation is that?! So I just tried to relax as much as I could.”

The 36-year-old model was honored to represent Brazil, which is hosting the 2016 summer Olympics.

She continued to say: “I was just so proud of being there. I was proud for Brazil, I was proud for our people. I mean, so many different names, so many people who have worked so hard to make such a beautiful celebration. I really think Brazilians, we have this simplicity about us, it’s so beautiful because it showed.”

Proud mother of two and wife to football superstar Tom Brady, Bundchen felt the ceremony was well-planned and properly represented Brazil.

“I think they did such a wonderful job in showing Brazil’s history and essence and all the different colors and Brazil’s music. The most beautiful thing about Brazil that I always find that is so unlike any other place I’ve been in the world is the diversity of its people. … It’s so special and I think they did such a wonderful job showing that. I couldn’t be more proud to be a part of it,” she stated.

Selena Gomez revealed she would like to date a “low-key” actor, producer, or writer but says those types are usually intimidated by her.

The 24-year-old singer, who was previously with Justin Bieber, told Australia’s Vogue magazine: “I think people would think it’s kind of dumb [to date me]. Nobody would want to throw themselves into that situation where it was so heightened publicly, like, why would they?

[I’d like a] low-key actor, writer or producer but those kind of guys are terrified of me!”

Meanwhile, Gomez had previously claimed she was done with Bieber but remains on friendly terms and cares about his well-being.

“At first I didn’t care. To me it was: I’m 18, I have a boyfriend, we look cute together, we like that. Then I got my heart broken and I cared. Because people had no idea what was going on, but everywhere it was a million different things. I was kind of in a corner, banging my head against the wall. I didn’t know where to go.

I’m so exhausted [by the constant references to him]. I honestly am so done. I care about his health and well-being. But I can’t do it anymore.”

The artist also has problems with the possibility that someone might “Google her” prior to going out and dating.

She shared: “I hate it. It’s hard and I’m weirded out by the idea that a guy has googled me before we meet, and that has happened. I feel like I look 16 sometimes, which is a bummer because I would love to date older guys.”

Jennifer Grey admitted she turned down a role in ABC’s Dirty Dancing television remake, citing that it didn’t feel appropriate. The actress starred in the original 1987 flick alongside the late Patrick Swayze.

She revealed to The Hollywood Reporter: “I was asked to do something on that show and I was flattered because I always want to be asked because it’s nice to want to be included. But for me, it would be sacrosanct for me to do it because it didn’t feel appropriate to me. It feels like if you’re going to do your own thing, do your own thing. I wouldn’t say [what role was offered] but I will tell you, it wasn’t Baby!”

20-year-old Abigail Breslin will take the role of Baby in the new movie, and Grey says she looks forward to seeing how this new version turns out.

“I am always interested in any iteration of something where they feel there’s more to be gotten and I would love to see what it is that they come up with.

I think they’ve got wonderful actors in it. I’m going to be watching it and I’m excited. My only advice is to own it for yourself because we all just do our interpretation and I’m only flattered and excited for people who are excited enough to put their stamp on it and see what they make of it and how they make it their own,” Grey stated.

The actress also took the time to acknowledge her late co-star, who died in 2009 at the age of 57.

She added: “He was really strong and he was very protective and his heart was very much in it. He was a great dancer and he was fearless. His fearlessness with my fearfulness – like his lack of Jewishness and my super Jewishness – together was like a marriage where you have two opposites. He’d do anything and I’d be scared to do anything.”

Howie Mandel made light of Calvin Harris’ breakup with Taylor Swift during a formal introduction at the Caesar’s Palace 50th anniversary gala in Las Vegas this weekend.

As Harris was to be presented with the Future Icon, Mandel joked by saying: “That’s a nice suit. Who’s your tailor? See what I did?”

Harris knew it was all in good fun, replying: “You got that prepared, you had that one ready.”

The two split earlier this year and have consistently made headlines due to Swift’s ability to quickly move on to a new partner – this time being Tom Hiddleston.

Although the breakup was initially on friendly terms, Harris then accused the 26-year-old singer of trying to tear him down.

The DJ said via Twitter: “Hurtful to me at this point that her and her team would go so far out of their way to try and make ME look bad at this stage though.”

As well as: “I figure if you’re happy in your new relationship you should focus on that instead of trying to tear your ex bf down for something to do.”

“I know you’re off tour and you need someone new to try and bury like Katy ETC but I’m not that guy, sorry. I won’t allow it.”

Swift’s representative even confirmed that she had penned his song, This is What You Came For, adding: “Taylor Swift wrote ‘This Is What You Came For‘ under the pseudonym Nils Sjoberg.”

Harris enlisted Rihanna to record the vocals as he and Swift feared their ongoing relationship would overshadow the impact of said track.

Meghan Trainor revealed she developed a crush on Niall Horan because of the attention he paid her during an event.

According to the All About that Bass singer, Horan was the only One Direction member who actually stopped to have a conversation, leading Trainor to develop a soft spot for the guy.

Trainor told We Love Pop magazine: “One Direction, give me the blonde one! He’s a gentleman. All the other boys walked by and he came up to me and I got swept off my feet by his Irish charm. I like normal people. I like, funny, normal, nice people.”

The One Direction singer isn’t the only man Trainor has complimented, as she has also expressed an interest in Ed Sheeran and wouldn’t turn down a date if he ever asked. The artist describes him as being approachable and down to earth.

“I like guys that are really nice, a gentleman. If you can chill with my bros and my family, you are in. I just got to look for older men who already have their stuff together. I wouldn’t reject Ed Sheeran. I’d love to be his date to prom,” she stated.

Meanwhile, the 22-year-old singer admitted she hasn’t been very lucky when it comes to dating, but hopes to eventually find a suitable partner in crime. More specifically, the singer hopes Mr. Right will show up when she isn’t looking.

She explained: “I haven’t had a relationship since I was 18. I just haven’t met the right guy. My mum was 19 and my dad was 40 when they met and they’re still together so she found her soul mate younger and he found his a bit older. I have no idea when I’ll find mine.”

Spice Girls singer Mel B is reportedly set to join the Australian X Factor talent show. The 41-year artist is also a judge on NBC’s America’s Got Talent, though there is no official word on whether she will perform both gigs simultaneously.

Mel B will be effectively joining the likes of Adam Lambert, Iggy Azalea, and Guy Sebastian. This is also considered a sign of a healthy professional relationship with music mogul Simon Cowell.

An insider shared with The Sun on Sunday newspaper: “Mel is a real favourite with Simon. He loves her straight-talking attitude.” The artist had previously appeared as a judge from 2011 to 2012, as well as the British version in 2014.

The news comes after some of the Spice Girls members talked about a possible reunion, making the judge quite the busy star at the moment.

Mel, Geri Horner, and Emma Bunton are reportedly open to get together in celebration of the group’s 20th anniversary. They had previously posted a video thanking fans for their never-ending support over the years, subsequently dropping the big reunion hint along with several concerts.

However, Mel B has since remained secretive about such plans and not much is yet known.

She has previously stated: “You know what? All will be revealed very, very soon. We have a few interesting things that we will be sharing with everybody, or the people that want to know. It’s gonna be very interesting.”

It is also rumored that Mel C and Victoria Beckham are opposed to reuniting, although they may eventually change their minds.

Actress Margot Robbie says she has found a life-long friend and drinking buddy – and it’s none other than her Suicide Squad co-star Cara Delevingne.

The two gradually bonded during the making of the DC Comics film, which also led Robbie to realize her new friend is a “hardcore” drinker.

She told the Daily Star Sunday newspaper: “What made working on the film even more amazing was that I found my new drinking buddy in Cara. It’s no myth about the British being able to drink, Cara is hardcore.”

Although Robbie is admittedly struggling to keep up with Delevingne’s drinking adventures, the actress feels she has made a life-long and valuable friend.

“I struggle to keep up. But we have the most fun ever. She is definitely now one of my drinking buddies for life,” she shared.

Meanwhile, it’s been reported that Robbie exercised as much as three hours per day for her Suicide Squad role. Her trainer, Andie Hecker, explained the details about the daily workout routine she had to endure.

He revealed: “She was a total trooper. It was very satisfying to see her body change into exactly what she wanted it to look like in such a short time.

There’s a scene in ‘Suicide Squad‘ where she changes clothes in front of a bunch of dudes, so her abs needed to be impeccable. And in those tiny shorts [her character] Harley wears, her butt was constantly on display.”

Suicide Squad was released on August 5th to mixed reviews. However, this hasn’t stopped many from enjoying the flick as it earned an estimated $267 million during its opening weekend.

Selena Gomez has learned to accept the gossip surrounding her life and acknowledges that most of it is based on mere assumptions.

The 24-year-old artist, who was previously dating Justin Bieber, believes a lot of people’s opinions are largely inaccurate but accepts there is nothing she can do to remedy the situation.

She told Vogue magazine: “Nobody really knows everything and they can only assume…I figured it’s just temporary. I feel like that fortunately and unfortunately it’s where my life is at the moment and I have to accept it.”

Despite the occasional frustration in the public eye, the Same Old Love hitmaker is happy about her latest album, Revival, as she feels it’s very authentic and relatable to her own personality.

“I think it was just a step in the right direction, and I’m so proud of it. When it comes to music, all I wanted to do was make sure I was being authentic and being myself, and I took that chance with this album,” she shared.

However, the singer would also like to reassess some areas about her life as a means of staying fresh.

Following a gig in Indonesia in July, Gomez took to Instagram to express how she feels as of late.

The caption read: “Tonight I felt extremely unauthentic, unconnected to both my myself and my music. I’ve never really felt like my materials, wardrobe or a video could define me. I act on a moment and fear something that hasn’t happened.

I’m stagnant, I stay still and don’t just sit with myself first and ask, ‘Is this where I am, whole heartedly?’ I’ve always told the truth. I’m always true to my word, I’ve shown who I am but I need to rethink some areas of my life creatively and personally. Had to get that out.”
