Gwen Stefani to reform No Doubt ,

Breaking news: Gwen Stefani is set to return to her musical roots and reform her 90s indie-ska band No Doubt.

The band has not performed together since 2004 when they took a hiatus and Gwen's solo album, which was meant to be a quick side project, became an international sensation.

But an animated chat simulation on the band's web page claims that they're ready to rock again.

"I think we should go out now, I don't think we should wait. Pack up the babies and get a bunch of nannies. So fun!" 'Gwen' says.

Way back in the dying days of the 80s, Gwen Stefani cut her musical teeth the rock'n'roll way: practicing in disused high school classrooms, touring in an old van, playing skanky bars and opening for the likes of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

The mum of two may have polished up a bit these days, but we think she could still rock it like she used to. Hell, she still looks as good as any teenager, so why not?

Check out Gwen's hot look from past to present in our style icon gallery below.

Amy Winehouse ends marriage to jailbird husband ,

After months of professing her love for her jailbird hubby, including publically embarrassing herself at Nelson Mandela's birthday, Amy Winehouse has allegedly revealed her marriage to Blake Fielder-Civil is over.

"There's no way back for us now," The singer supposedly told UK tabloid News of the World. "It was never going to last. We were only together for the sex."

Reports say Fielder-Civil, who has only just been released from jail after a 27-month sentence for assault, has ditched Amy for a German model named Sophie.

Says Amy: "I fancied him like mad, like no one else I've ever known. But it's not enough, is it?

No doubt her parents are secretly pleased with the outcome.

Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson have baby boy ,

You'd think with all that waiting around for the well overdue birth of their first child, Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson might have had time to think their baby's name through.

Instead they've named the poor little tacker Bronx Mowgli.

We bet that conversation went down something like this:

Ashlee: I want my baby to have a strong name, something that commands real respect and authority. Something that people will remember.

Pete: Nah, let's just name him after where we conceived him. And look, Jess has given us a copy of The Jungle Book. I like the Jungle Book...

Well, at least he won't be the weirdest-named kid in the celeb-baby sandpit – check out our gallery below for more crazy celebu-spawn baby names.

Hit or miss for Natalie Bassingthwaighte? ,

We've got mixed feelings about this solo effort from Neighbours graduate Natalie Bassignthwaighte. After ditching her former band Rogue Traders, her new single 'Alive' is a pretty good attempt at generic, catchy pop.

But the video clip has us scratching our heads with confusion. What, exactly, is the deal with those outfits? Are they a joke? If so, we don't really get it.

Decked out in heinous orange lipstick and fluoro accessories while sprawled out on a banana lounge, Nat looks like she's ready to bump off Selma Blair to take over her role in the US version of Kath & Kim.

And don't even get us started with that metallic outfit-frizzy hair thing. Not a clue as to what's going on there.

Love it? Hate it? You be the judge and tell us what you think in our comments section below.

Ashlee Simpson, Pete Wentz nowhere to be found as baby birth looms ,

It's been several days since Ashlee Simpson allegedly went into labour with her and husband Pete Wentz's first child, but with nothing but silence emulating from the Simpson-Wentz camp, has something gone wrong with the birth?

Speaking to Ellen Degeneres on November 17, big sis Jessica Simpson said Ashlee was preparing to be induced. "They're going to have to. It's already developing really quickly," Jessica said.

Since then, there have been no public announcements from the usually publicity-happy family, fuelling rumours that complications may have occurred.

Pete Wentz began cancelling his public appearances over two weeks ago, including a scheduled appearance on the Larry King Show, due to "breaking news and scheduling conflicts".

Britney's daily struggle: 'Every day is Groundhog day' ,

Britney Spears has spoken out about her 'crazy' life, claiming that she feels trapped and alone despite being a household name worldwide.

In a new documentary about the star, Britney tells how "there's no excitement, there's no passion" in her life.

"Even when you go to jail, you know there's the time when you're gonna get out. But in this situation, it's never ending. It's just like [the movie] 'Groundhog Day' every day," the singer allegedly reveals in Britney: For The Record, due to air later this month.

After a tumultuous year where Britney suffered a breakdown under the full glare of the world's media and appeared dazed and confused in a number of public appearances, the singer is still trying to get her personal life back on track.

"I think it's too in control. If I wasn't under the restraints I'm under, I'd feel so liberated. When I tell them the way I feel, it's like they hear, but they're really not listening. If you do something wrong in your work, you can move on, but I'm having to pay for a long time.”

With early leaks of her new album 'Circus' already sparking rave reviews, we hope the next year is going to be a whole lot better for Brit.

Noel Gallagher's secret life: doggie rescuer ,

Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher has used that big mouth of his for a good cause, scaring away thieves who were trying to steal a former Bond girl's dog.

When he saw the dog-nappers attempting to take the pooch belonging to Caroline Munro, who starred in 'The Spy Who Loved Me', from outside a supermarket, Gallagher let rip with a frightening tirade that caused the would-be robbers to run away.

Munro was allegedly so grateful that she showered Gallagher with thanks, while a source claimed: "Noel was so brave – the blokes could have been carrying knives but he just didn't care."
