Simon Cowell’s mum Julie has said she wants him to get a move on with his wedding plans.

His mum Julie, 84, said: “Turning 50 has made him reassess his life.
“We’re friends with Michael Winner, who recently got engaged at 73. I’m going to tell Simon not to do a Michael on me as I won’t live that long.”

She added: “Now I really think marriage and fatherhood are going to happen.”
The Enquirer is reporting that Nick Lachey is pretty hard up for cash after his new album has been put on hold indefinitely. The singer was expecting a big pay day from his new album but since there’s no release date in sight and all of his money is tied up in the project, things are looking pretty grim with his bank account. Apparently, that’s why Nick has been picking up hosting gigs just to get some extra cash. Well, that’s certainly not going to be enough to pay for that big wedding that Vanessa Minnillo wants for them. Maybe they can get a reality show deal for that.

Franklin, Tennessee, was the locale for Sara Evans’ wedding to former University of Alabama football star Jay Barker. In attendance were the couple’s seven children.
Yes, we said seven. No, they are not together. Sara has three from her former marriage, two girls and a boy. Jay has four from his previous marriage.
Minister Joe Beam performed the ceremony. He is also credited with introducing the couple last fall. Additionally, songwriter Marcus Hummon performed “God Bless the Broken Road” which he cowrote. Friends in attendance were treated to friend chicken, pole beans, biscuits, and macaroni and cheese.
Sara says, “It was hard for me to believe he was real and that he loves me the way he loves me. I thank God many times a day for bringing me Jay.”
Days after the singer sparked engagement rumours when she was pictured wearing a diamond ring, it has now been revealed she tied the knot with rapper Nick Cannon in the Caribbean.
According to reports, the “very impulsive” ceremony took place at Mariah’s new home in the Bahamas on Wednesday.
Mariah’s nephew added fuel to the speculation with messages posted on the social networking website Facebook. Updates made by Shawn McDonald to his page this week referred to him going to the Bahamas and acting as a witness.
Family member Linda Cannon confirmed the news, saying: “Nick called us and told us all about it. We are happy for him. If that is what he wants then we are happy for him. I’m not going to give you any details, but we are happy for him.”
Another source confirmed the news, adding that there was no pre-nuptial agreement as “there wasn’t time”. It was reported yesterday that the $2.5 million ring Mariah has been sporting was originally given to Nick’s ex, Selita Ebanks.
However, jewellers Jacob and Co. have dismissed the suggestion, saying they designed the 17 carat pink diamond ring after he split from Selita. Mariah and Nick began dating after he directed the video for her single, ‘Bye Bye’, in March.
Kate Moss has booked a former power station for her wedding reception.
The supermodel – who is set to wed rocker lover Jamie Hince in September – has hired Wapping Food, also known as the Wapping Project, in East London, for the star-studded bash.
A source said: ‘They have booked the entire venue. It will be quite a party. The wedding will be quite intimate. This will be the big event for all their friends.’
It was recently reported Kate is planning a traditional white wedding. The mother-of-one – who got engaged to The Kills guitarist Jamie last month, after dating him since last August – is finalising details for the nuptials.
A source said: “At the moment, she says she wants a white wedding at the little church in her village in the Cotswolds. She wants something typically English, with lots of flowers and her daughter, Lila, as bridesmaid.”
Gwyneth Paltrow and husband Chris Martin are very happy together, says the actress’ mother.
Blythe Danner has dismissed reports the couple are going through a bad patch, and says they are still very much in love.
Blythe said: “I’ve never seen two happier parents and people. Happy, happy people. I don’t get it.”
Blythe also quashed rumours Gwyneth is planning to quit Hollywood and focus on raising the couple’s two children, three-year-old daughter Apple and one-year-old son Moses.
The ‘Meet the Parents’ star said: “People are saying Gwyneth isn’t going to go back to work, which is a lot of BS too. She very much wants to go back to work. She’s a great, wonderful actress. But motherhood is very important to her, as it was to me, and she’s finding the balance. And it’s hard to find that balance.”
The couple have been spending a lot of time apart recently as Chris has been holed up in different recording studios working on the new Coldplay album ‘Viva La Vida’, while Gwyneth was busy filming new movie ‘Iron Man’.
Kate Moss is planning to marry her rocker lover at London’s Claridge’s hotel.
The catwalk beauty, who started dating The Kills guitarist Jamie Hince last August , was seen picking up wedding brochures at the plush venue sparking rumours she plans to hold her nuptials there followed by a lavish reception in one of the many decadent ballrooms.
A source said: “Kate looked radiant when she came by to pick up the wedding brochures. She has the air of a woman who is loved and looked after.” Kate regularly visited Claridge’s when she was dating Babyshambles frontman Pete Doherty.
However, since their split last July, she has favoured London’s Dorchester hotel, where she held her 34th birthday party earlier this month. The source added: “It was generally assumed Claridge’s was a bolthole for her and Pete and she wouldn’t be back again, so you can image the buzz when she showed up.”
Kate reportedly proposed to Jamie during a 12-hour lovemaking marathon just a month after they started dating. When the couple emerged from their night of passion, Kate allegedly told friends, “We’re engaged.
Eddie Murphy breathed a sigh of relief after it emerged that his whirlwind wedding to film producer, Tracey Edmonds was not legal. The Shrek star has called off the “proper” ceremony they had been planning in Tinsletown; confessing their marriage had hit the buffers since they returned to LA.
The couple tied the knot in a romantic New Year’s beach ceremony on a private island off Bora Bora in the South Pacific. However it later emerged that they should have lived there for a month to make the marriage legal under Polynesian law. Only couples that marry in the town hall in front of the mayor are exempt from the 30-day residency rule.
Murphy, who split from his first wife in 2006 after 12 years, refused to comment. It is said he claimed not to be ready for the commitment in the first place and considers the whole situation a ‘lucky escape’.
