Robert Pattinson hit by a car:
Twilight star Robert Pattinson was hit by a taxi in New York yesterday – while trying to escape from screaming female fans. The 23-year-old actor attempted to sprint across the road to his trailer, but was clipped by a taxi cab coming down the road. Thankfully, a "shaken" Rob was not injured in the collision, but it has highlighted just what an intense scenario the poor guy has found himself stuck in. RPattz's five bodyguards were reportedly "livid" at what had happened, with one yelling at the nearby fans, "You see what you did, you almost killed him!" Rob's manager has so far declined to comment on the incident. Poor Rob. Give the boy space to breath, people!

Katie Price fears she'll never find another man
She looks as if she's having a wild time in Ibiza, but Katie Price has reportedly confessed to friends that she's worried she'll never find another man like Pete. The model, who has apparently been telling holidaymakers that she "needs a shag", is worried that any new man she meets will only be interested in her fame and money. One pal explained, "Katie knows she was very lucky to have Pete. She can be very demanding and hard to live with." The pal also claims that Katie surrounds herself with her gay friends because they always make her feel good about herself. Do you think there's a man out there brave enough to date Katie?

Phillip Schofield wants Holly for This Morning
Speculation over which lucky lady is going to take over Fern Britton's job on This Morning has been non-stop for months, but co-host Phillips Schofield has apparently already made up his mind who he wants to work with. Pip is said to have told ITV bosses that Holly Willoughy – his co-host on Dancing On Ice – is the only girl "good enough" for the job. A source said, "Phillip has been flying the flag for Holly for a while. He has been reading in the papers about possible replacements but he's not crazy about any of them." Pip has apparently taken his Holly campaign right to the ITV chief Peter Fincham, but it's unlikely an announcement will be made for at least another two weeks. Good luck Holly!

Su-Bo has "screaming fit" over cat
Susan Boyle was hurridly axed from another Britain's Got Talent tour performance in Liverpool last night, after having a "screaming fit" over her beloved cat Pebbles. The distressed West Lothian singer was heard shouting, "Where's my cat?", "I want my cat!" from the balcony of her hotel room, before show aides managed to calm her down. The star's spokeswoman later denied the story, saying that Su-Bo had pulled out of appearing because she was "tired". Oh dear. Poor Susan...
