Glee star Jonathan Groff has revealed that he was left with a five inch scar on his arm after shooting the final episode of the hit show.
“I was singing the Queen song Bohemian Rhapsody, dancers were flying all over the place and a girl’s heel got stuck into me and drew blood,” the actor said.
“I think at that very moment of contact I reached my highest notes.”
Groff also explained he was not the only performer on the series to be injured.
“I was lucky, though. Some had bruises, there was a broken limb or two, others drew blood. It was like a scene from Gladiator,” the 25-year-old told The Daily Mail.
Sandra Bullock’s movie husband has sent her his best wishes as she copes with the news that her real-life husband has been allegedly cheating on her.
Singer Tim McGraw stars alongside Bullock in her Oscar role in the movie The Blind Side.
In real life, the actress has been faced with allegations from four different women that they had affairs with her spouse Jesse James.
Now Tim McGraw, 42, has revealed he thinks that she can easily weather the marital storm that has been whipped up recently.
He told Entertainment Tonight: “She’s tough. I’m not that tough.
“I haven’t reached out to her yet. You know, she’s got a lot on her plate. I just wish her nothing but the best.”
On the professional front, McGraw praised Bullock as a great teacher and co-worker, adding: “She’s such a professional. She’s so great. I’ve learned a lot from her.
“We certainly got friendly. She’s a very friendly person. A really nice person.”
A Single Man star Colin Firth has said there are “risks” for a gay actor coming out as they could harm their career.
The 49-year-old, who is married to wife Livia Giuggioli, is playing the role of a gay college professor in his new movie and said gay actors are still struggling to cross “invisible boundaries” in their careers.
He said: “There might be risks for a gay actor coming out. The politics of that are quite complex, it seems to me. If you’re known as a straight guy, playing a gay role, you get rewarded for that.
“If you’re a gay man and you want to play a straight role, you don’t get cast – and if a gay man wants to play a gay role now, you don’t get cast.
“I think it needs to be addressed and I feel complicit in the problem. I don’t mean to be. I think we should all be allowed to play whoever – but I think there are still some invisible boundaries which are still uncrossable.”
US actor Jared Leto has recalled memories of the ‘magical time’ that he spent in Haiti as a child.
The 38-year-old moved to the Caribbean country with his mum and brother when he was just 12 years old.
His mum helped to run two medical clinics for around a year before they headed back to the US.
He said: “I tend to keep my life stories to myself. You’ve got to keep some things for yourself. You can’t give everything away.”
However, he added: “It was a magical time. Could you imagine being a kid in such an exotic place? It was eye-opening. It was a life-changing experience.
“They have such a strong spirit and a wonderful culture and joy, even in the midst of all the struggles they have gone through.”
George Clooney has revealed the line-up for his charity telethon will include performances from Bono, Sting, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera and Alicia Keys.
Clooney said that more than 40 celebrities are expected to attend the “Hope for Haiti” event on January 22.
He added that the aim of the benefit is “to show the people of Haiti that the whole world is paying attention”.
He said: “We’re doing a telethon on all the channels, every network in the country and international as well. It’s an unbelievable show. Bono’s written a song for it and songs are going to available on iTunes that night.
“People in Haiti have absolutely nothing. There are times when, as bad as it is for many people in this country, people also realise how much worse it is for them and they are very compassionate.”
Adrian Grenier and his band, The Honey Brothers, celebrate the new year together last week at the Maestro Dobel Tequila party in Boston. After the actor turned musician and his bandmates led the countdown to the new year, the 33-year old ‘Entourage’ star palyed drums and guitar on a post-midnight jam. The band’s lead singer Andrew Vladeck told the Boston Globe “We’re still kind of getting out there. Of course, Adrian’s exposure is just massive. But the gigs, in the end, they speak for themselves.” That’s definitely one of his less douche bag-like moves by not shamelessly plugging the band for all it’s worth.
Tyler Perry has scored his second number one movie of the year with new flick I Can Do Bad All By Myself.
The new film, starring Oscar nominee Taraji P Henson, has topped the North American box office chart and figures show it took $24m in its opening weekend.
The film follows a hard-drinking nightclub singer who is forced to care for her niece and nephews.
Perry previously topped the box office in February with flick Madea Goes to Jail.
The new flick also stars Perry as alter-ego Madea, as well as Mary J Blige and Gladys Knight.
Actor David Arquette has asked his wife Courteney Cox and her Cougar Town co-stars to help donate to his charity fundraising.
Arquette, 37, is travelling the US as a spokesperson for the Cheesecake Factory’s Drive Out Hunger Tour, which aims to collect 100,000 cans of soup to support local food banks.
As Arquette was driving through Los Angeles as part of the appeal, he reportedly stopped at the ABC network’s studios to collect donations from his actress wife, Cox, 45.
But the former Friends star was not the only celebrity to contribute to the appeal – Arquette also managed to get donations at the studios from Cox’s Cougar Town co-star Busy Philipps and Scrubs star Zach Braff.
Actor Gerard Butler tricked a director into thinking he had eaten a doughnut that the Scot had put in his ass.
The 39-year-old thanked the directors of his new sci-fi thriller Gamer’s by sending them doughnuts, but they were made to think the sugary treats had been messed with.
The PS I Love You star explained to British ShortList magazine: “I wrote to the two directors on Gamer separately. I wrote that me and the stunt guys are having a blast and sent them half a dozen doughnuts each as a thank you. They were so chuffed.
“The next day we got six fresh doughnuts and shoved them between our ass cheeks… and took a Polaroid. We sent this snap to the directors and, sure enough, they thought they’d been eating the very same sugary treats. They were freaked out.”
The actress, daughter of A-listers Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, said that she had always got on better with men.
And she said her Sorority Row co-stars, including Audrina Patridge, were her only gal-pals.
She said: “The girls are probably my only girlfriends in LA now. Girls don’t like me very much – I’m not sure why.
“I’ve always gotten along better with guys.”
She added: “You do a movie with some girls, then later you’re all auditioning for the same parts and it starts getting catty, but we’re all unbelievably supportive of each other.”
Rumer, 21, said she was far from being a wild child.
She told Now magazine: “I’m such a stay at home Betty Crocker! I’ve started baking pies. It’s fun and I figure I’ve got to learn to cook at some time in my life.”
Speaking of her relationship with her stepdad Ashton Kutcher she said: “I respect him and regard him as a parental figure. He’s unbelievably smart, a great guy.”
Aliens actress Sigourney Weaver has revealed that she learned how to pole-dance for her new movie You Again.
The 59-year-old stars alongside Kristen Bell, Jamie Lee Curtis, and former Golden Girls star Betty White in the new comedy.
She said: “I didn’t learn that at Yale [School of Drama]. Although it would have been useful.”
However, Weaver added that she does not wear any raunchy stripper costumes for the dance, adding: “I wear the same thing [I did] for the samba. I have a little kind of Carmen Miranda costume.”
Weaver also said that she has been “very heartened” by the response she has had for the movie Prayers For Bobby, in which she plays a religious mother whose son kills himself because he is gay.
She said: “A lot of parents come up to me on the street and say how much they appreciate the film.”

Twilight star Kristen Stewart nearly gave up acting after auditioning constantly for a year and not getting any parts, she has revealed.
Stewart, who has shot to fame for her role as Bella Swan in the vampire movie sagas, started acting when she was just nine years old.
In her pre-teens, the actress, now 19, auditioned continuously for a year without getting booked to do a single job.
She said: “It took a really long time until I was totally over it, and then came my last audition. I went to it and I didn’t even want to. My mum said: ‘Well, this is the last one. You don’t have to go to any more.’
“And that was the first movie I got.”
Stewart’s first film role was in the 2001 flick The Safety Of Objects.
Despite being such a huge star these days, Stewart insists that people don’t recognise her.
She said: “I think I just look different in person or something. I’m also not very approachable.”
However, on film sets it is a different story. Just like her dishy co-star Robert Pattinson, Stewart has to film her scenes under a massive umbrella to deter the crowds of paparazzi and fans trying to get close to the two stars.
The second Twilight film, New Moon, is due to hit UK cinemas in November.
Jerry O’Connell has revealed he and wife Rebecca Romijn feel having two children is more than enough.
The 35-year-old is dad to seven-month-old twin daughters, Charlie and Dolly, and he has admitted that they are a handful.
He said: “The hardest thing is being in a public place like a store or a restaurant – or on your wife’s TV show set! – and smelling a number two, and knowing it’s one of your children.”
The Baby On Board star visited his wife Rebecca Romijn, 36, on the set of her TV show Eastwick.
He said: “I went to my wife’s work yesterday, and she was in the middle of a very dramatic scene.
“And I had the kids there, and one of them was like: ‘Bwaaahhh!’”
He added: “I thought it was funny, but I don’t think the director did, so I got the heck out of there.
“I had a long talk with the girls about show business, but I don’t think they had any idea what the heck I was talking about.”
Although O’Connell loves his two little daughters, he revealed that he and his wife don’t want any more babies. “Now we’re just adopting dogs,” he said.
Harry Potter star Rupert Grint has revealed he would like to play the bad guy in a movie.
The 21-year-old admitted he would like a change from playing the good guy after starring as Ron Weasley in the hit boy-wizard film series.
He said: “I have always played the good guys so far. I’d love to play a baddy and maybe beat some people up – do something different. I’m definitely a character actor.”
Grint said he would also like to try out a stage role.
“I would love to do theatre but I’ve really only done school plays,” he said.
