ED SHEERAN CAN KEEP PUB SIGNS – (06/21/2019)
Ed Sheeran has been granted permission to keep the pub sign he erected in tribute to his wife.
Sheeran failed to apply for planning permission to add a 16ft sign bearing the words “The Lancaster Lock” in honor of his spouse, Cherry Lancaster Seaborn to a barn he converted into a bar on the grounds of his East Suffolk estate. He had to make a retrospective bid after a complaint was made.
East Suffolk council have now approved the application after agreeing the signs cause “no harm.” They found the boards were not illuminated, would not affect neighboring properties, and were not “readily visible from outside the enclosed land.”
Sheeran f was previously denied a request to build a private chapel – where he planned to marry Cherry – within the grounds and in March, objections were raised about his wildlife pond because neighbors were worried he would use it as a swimming pool.
A set of steps and a jetty have been installed on the pond, sparking concern but East Suffolk council approved the installation as it is to be used “to enable access to the pond in the event of maintenance and emergency.”
Sheeran has made a number of other renovations to his historic property, including installing an underground “man cave” with a music room and cinema beneath the grounds of his farmhouse.

BRITNEY SPEARS’ REP CALLS INSTAGRAM COMMENT ALLEGATIONS ‘ABSURD’ – (06/20/2019)
Representatives from Britney Spears’ team are responding to allegations that they’ve been deleting positive comments from the singer’s Instagram posts “to keep up the illusion that she needs help.”
“We unequivocally deny the absurd allegations that we have promoted negative statements or deleted positive posts from Instagram and are considering appropriate action,” a rep told Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday.
The statement comes after the Instagram account absolutebritneycom shared a post accusing her team of deleting comments. “So Britney’s team is deleting positive comments on her Instagram post and leaving negative ones to keep up the illusion that she needs help!” the post reads. “They were all so quick to remove all comments before but now all the sudden they are leaving all negative ones but removing positive ones! How much longer is this going to be?!? This has to be human rights violation!!!! #FreeBritney”
Britney’s mom, Lynne Spears, replied with her agreement of the post. “I can’t believe u just posted this because I had a friend tell me the same thing! I posted something and tried to go back and find it and none of it is in order and I couldn’t find mine, which I JUST POSTED???” she wrote. “I know you are a true fan and love her so thank you for pointing this out because I have had others say the same.”
Fans have been supporting Britney lately amid status hearings about her conservatorship with her father, Jamie Spears, as well as the singer’s restraining order against her former manager, Sam Lutfi, and her battle with paparazzi over allegedly doctored photos of her.
Meanwhile, Britney wants fans to know that it’s not so easy for her to lose weight when she wants to. On Tuesday, she opened up to her Instagram followers about what it’s like when she tries to slim down. “I’ve been working really hard to [lose] weight …. and for me 3 pounds is like 7 pounds it’s a lot. I don’t like doing too much cardio,” she captioned a video of her doing her favorite workout moves.

IRINA SHAYK HAD A ‘DIFFICULT’ TIME DEALING WITH BRADLEY COOPER, LADY GAGA RUMORS – (06/20/2019)
Being in a relationship when people think your partner is stepping out is tough in any circumstances, but in the limelight it’s almost unimaginable. According to a report in Us Weekly, Irina Shayk did not take kindly to the constant rumors that her partner Bradley Cooper was hooking up with his co-worker Lady Gaga.
The pair were working on A Star Is Born together, with Cooper directing and both of them leading as star-crossed lovers.
“The movie had a major impact on Bradley and Irina’s relationship,” a source says exclusively in the new issue of Us Weekly of the former couple, who broke up earlier this month after more than four years together. “Even though there was nothing romantic between Bradley and Gaga, the noise was difficult for Irina to deal with.”
Another source tells Us that Gaga “felt bad” about the rumors and she has no plans to “get together” with Cooper after his split with the supermodel, with whom he shares Lea, 2.
Meanwhile, a report in ET claims Cooper is completely focused on his relationship with Lea, but that he still has a “deep friendship.”

TAYLOR SWIFT DISHES ON HER MUSIC VIDEO RECONCILIATION WITH KATY PERRY – (06/19/2019)
Katy Perry and Taylor Swift made their peace music-video official in Swift’s “You Need to Calm Down” video – but there was a year-long process leading to the moment the two embraced, dressed like a hamburger and French fries.
In a new interview with BBC Radio 1, Taylor explains that she initially pitched the video idea to Katy via text and wasn’t sure if she’d be down to do it – but Katy was on board.
“I sent it to her and she was like, ‘I would love for us to be a symbol of redemption and forgiveness,’” Taylor says.
She adds that the idea for the burger and fries costumes wasn’t part of her initial treatment, but she was inspired by Katy’s burger outfit at the MET Gala after-party this year.
“I was like, ‘Can we do a burger and fries as, like, a metaphor for two people who belong together?’ Like people who are a perfect pair,” Taylor says. “And she thought it was really funny, so we did it.”
The two former rivals buried the hatchet after Katy sent a note and an actual olive branch to Taylor before her Reputation tour. When they ran into each other again, Taylor says, they realized they had “grown past allowing ourselves to be pitted against each other.”
They ramped up their reconciliation – or at least the publicity of it – just recently. Last week, Perry Instagrammed a plate of chocolate-chip cookies, bearing the words “Peace at Last,” with Swift tagged in the caption.
Following the release of the video, Swift told E! that she and Perry have “really been on good terms for a while.” And yet, they were both apparently worried about making their friendship public.
“We didn’t know if we were ever gonna really tell people about it,” Swift said of their friendship. “We wanted to make sure that was solid between us before we ever made the public aware.”

POLL SHOWS POPULARITY OF ROBERT PATTINSON’S AS BATMAN: Americans age 18-29 love Warner Bros.’ choice of Twilight star Robert Pattinson as Batman, a Hollywood Reporter/Morning Consult poll finds. Nicholas Hoult was also in contention. About 42% favor Pattinson over 30% who wanted Hoult. However, older adults (ages 45-64) prefer Hoult by a slight margin.” Twilight fans are totally on board. I think their dedication to Rob is the kind that means fans who weren’t Batman fans before are now going to devour all things Batman, in support of Rob,” says Bekah Decker, co-founder of Robert Pattinson fanzine LettersToRob.com. “Bruce Wayne is dark, [Pattinson’s Twilight character] Edward [Cullen] is dark. There is a vigilante quality in Edward — more in the books — that is an obvious tie to Batman.”
