Kelly Brook & Billy Zane Reunited In Cannes

For a couple who announced their split last month, Kelly Brook and Billy Zane looked very together as they hit the red carpet arm-in-arm in Cannes.
The wannabe actress has said that the pair - who ended their four-year relationship last month - couldn't bear life apart.
Speculation the pair had rekindled their romance grew after they were spotted together in London last week.
And now Brook has confirmed she has reunited with 42-year-old Zane.
She told the U.K.'s Daily Mirror, "We're so happy. It's just the best feeling being with him. I really missed Billy. We realised we're were at our happiest when (we) are together.
"We needed to get away just to have some quality time together away from England. And to have a laugh, that's important isn't it?"

However, things still aren’t quite back to the way they were – Brook was still without her £35,000 engagement ring at the Cannes premiere of Indiana Jones.

Leaders of No. 2 U.S. actors union OK TV contract

By Bob Tourtellotte


LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Leaders of the second largest U.S.
actors union ratified a tentative prime-time TV contract with
Hollywood's major studios on Saturday and recommended member
approval, heightening tensions with the larger Screen Actors
Guild.


The National Board of Directors of the American Federation
of Television and Radio Artists, AFTRA, which represents 70,000
actors, also warned SAG, the No. 1 union, against any attempts
to interfere with AFTRA's membership vote.


Last month, AFTRA negotiators reached agreement with the
studios, represented by the Alliance of Motion Picture and
Television Producers. The board vote on Saturday represented
the last step before a full membership vote.


SAG remains embroiled in its own talks with the AMPTP over
a new contract for its roughly 120,000 members. Since many
actors are members of both organizations, lack of support for
the AFTRA contract could be viewed as strengthening SAG's hand
in its attempt to get a better deal than AFTRA's.


SAG, for the most part, represents film and TV actors in
Hollywood, while AFTRA's membership includes many daytime TV
actors and radio performers.


The AFTRA deal has been viewed as putting pressure on SAG
to accept a similar deal and avoid the threat of a possible
actors' strike when its contract expires on June 30.


Last November, the Writers Guild of America went on strike
against studios, partly over Web-related issues. The 100-day
work stoppage led to $2.5 billion in losses for the Los
Angeles-area economy, according to the Milken Institute think
tank, and Hollywood wants to avoid another strike.


The Hollywood actors' labor talks deal with many of the
same issues, including more pay when TV shows are sold in
ancillary markets such as on DVDs and how much pay they will
receive when their work is distributed on the Internet. 

Missy Elliott Will Always Work With Timbaland

Missy Elliott will never stop working with Timbaland claims the rapper, because the two gel so well together in the studio.


The pair have a long-standing history of working together and Timbaland appears on Elliott's upcoming album 'Block Party'.


Missy tells Billboard magazine, "People always ask if we're still working together, and the answer is we will always work together. He's always going to be involved, even if it is just on one record."


"That's my brother. I respect and honour what he says. It's deeper than this music industry thing for Timbaland and I. There's a chemistry between us that will never leave."
