Kate MossKate Moss's mother Linda reportedly flew to the US drugs clinic where the model is undergoing therapy after Kate called her for a family session.

 

According to the Mirror, Linda was on the next flight after the star rang from the exclusive clinic in Arizona where she is

battling drug addiction.

 

'Linda spoke to Kate every day while she was in New York when the story [of Kate's addiction] broke and spoke to her in Arizona as well,' a friend told the newspaper.

 

'Kate does not really know who her friends are, but she knows she can rely on her mother. When Kate asked her to go out to Arizona, Linda did not hesitate -- she booked a flight straightaway,'  she added.

 

Kate's mom is expected to take part in three or four workshop-style therapy sessions with her daughter this week. The staff say this is the crucial part of the treatment.


Patients are encouraged to talk about issues that have led to
personal problems. Such sessions tackle the underlying reasons for drug addiction. Two or three patients are placed in groups along with the family members. Often, it is a very  emotional experience.

 

Kate, who checked into the Meadows on September 29 for a 20,000 pounds 30-day  programme, has lost a string  of   modelling contracts.

 

Daniel CraigJames Bond was Cinderella's ugly sister!

 

Daniel Craig might be playing the suave secret agent in the upcoming James Bond film Casino Royale, but did you know that his first acting role was that of an ugly sister in school drama Cinderella?

 

Daniel, 37, who is the first blonde to play the spy agent, was just 16 when he starred alongside classmate Richard Kelly with heavy make-up, huge earrings and green wellies.

 

Craig's former drama teacher, Hilary Green, who taught him at Wirral's Hilbre High School and now writes spy novels,  recalled Craig's first eye-catching efforts on stage and said he was amazing.

 

'He was hilarious. He was always a bit special,' the Mirror quoted

her as saying.


Jen peeved with the Pitts
 

Jennifer Aniston is peeved about being left out by former husband Brad Pitt's family, with indications that they are warming up to the idea of accepting Angelina Jolie as the new woman in Brad's life.

 

Jennifer Aniston and Brad PittAlthough there is still no confirmation from the actor's family that they are a couple, it seems his family is ready to

accept his lady love, and Jen is said to be put out by the whole thing because she was very close to her former in-laws.

 

'Jen has been a member of the Pitt family for more than seven years now,' Fox News quoted a source as telling Heat magazine. 'The family has stood beside Jen, embracing her and reassuring her that nothing would ever change between  them despite the divorce.'

 

However, Jen feels she has finally been replaced by the Tomb Raider actress in the Pitt household, as Brad's brother Doug, who had a particularly close relationship with her, recently sang Jolie's praises at a Junior Rotary Club meeting in his hometown of Springfield, Missouri.

 

'My family have met Angelina and we really, really like her. She's great!' the report quoted him as saying.

 

'Of course, we like Jen too,' he added.

 

Laughter the best medicine for Kylie


Pop star Kylie Minogue is reportedly
enjoying comedy videos to stay composed and emotionally charged while undergoing treatment for breast cancer.

 

The singer, who has been completely drained by the treatment, is said to be fighting the disease by watching Catherine Tate videos, according to sister Dannii.

 

Dannii says the 37-year-old Australian pop star is a big fan of Catherine's stroppy schoolgirl character Lauren.

 

'We've been loving Catherine Tate for a while now and we can both do brilliant impressions of the schoolgirl,' Fox News quoted her as telling Closer magazine. 'The rude grandma has us in hysterics and the old gay guy who goes to the doctor is brilliant. It is really keeping her going right now. She's overwhelmed by all the support from friends and fans.'
