Four Glee stars to leave show

Heather Morris, Mark Salling, Amber Riley and Harry Shum Jr. won't return to 'Glee' as series regulars in season five.

'Glee's Heather Morris, Mark Salling, Amber Riley and Harry Shum Jr. won't return as series regulars next season.

The quartet - who play Brittany, Puck, Mercedes and Mike respectively - may return as occasional guest stars but will no longer have major roles in the show, according to TV Line.

Dianna Agron (Quinn) is also set to leave the show, after the actress only appeared in a few episodes in season four.

Meanwhile, Chris Colfer - who stars as openly gay teenager Kurt Hummel in the hit musical - has no plans to leave the show in the near future and hopes there are more interesting storylines to come for Kurt.

He said: ''I'm definitely the youngest cast member so I'm hoping to have more time ahead. We'll see.''

Chris recently revealed he hopes his 'Glee' character will inspire children around the world.

He said: ''I think I'm very blessed to be able to play that role on the show because I know it has helped a lot of kids around the world. He's a character that means so much to people who relate to him and are inspired by him.''

However, despite his love of the hit show, Chris admits he does get embarrassed watching some of his all-singing, all-dancing routines on TV - particularly his impersonation of Beyonce's 'Single Ladies'.

He said: ''Oh no, I hate watching myself. I get so embarrassed! I try not to look at myself. I just think, 'Oh, what was I doing?' It's for a pay check, right?''

Alec Baldwin Explodes At Daily Mail Journalist

Alec Baldwin has deleted his Twitter account after hitting out at a journalist who accused his pregnant wife Hilaria of posting self-promotional tweets while attending James Gandolifi's funeral yesterday (27.06.13).

Alec Baldwin has deleted his Twitter account after hitting out at a journalist.

The 55-year-old actor has removed himself from the social networking site after threatening to ''f**k up'' a reporter from the Daily Mail newspaper, who accused his pregnant wife of posting self-promotional tweets while attending James Gandolfini's funeral yesterday (27.06.13).

Alec - who has deleted his account twice before - posted: ''My wife and I attend a funeral to pay our respects to an old friend, and some toxic Brit writes this f**king trash.

''My wife DID NOT use her phone, in any capacity, at our friend's funeral.''

Hilaria - who is currently seven months pregnant with a baby girl - took to her Twitter account to brand the journalist in question as a bully and slammed his comments as ''shameful.''

She posted: ''FYI I don't believe in bringing phones into a funeral and I never did and I never would.

''Here is some info... When someone tweets something at a certain time, and you retweet it later, it posts the TIME the first person tweeted.

''I hope that this reporter knows how much pain and drama he has caused from his poor journalism. Lying and bullying are shameful.''

The British newspaper is currently seeking clarification over when the yoga instructor posted the tweets.

Kanye West's friend won't buy baby gift

Kanye West's close pal T-Pain won't buy his baby a gift because he thinks the rapper would make a huge scene if he didn't like it.

Kanye West's friend won't buy his baby a gift because the rapper would make a scene if he didn't like it.

T-Pain says he has no plans to splash out on a present for Kanye and Kim Kardashian's daughter North, who was born on June 15, because Kanye has no refinement and wouldn't hesitate to throw a strop if he was unhappy with the gift.

He told Us Weekly: ''Kanye is much richer than me so I'm not even going to try getting him and Kim Kardashian a gift. Kanye has no couth when it comes to things like that, so when you bring him something, he'd be like, 'What the f**k is this?'

''You don't want to be that person because he'll make a big scene about that. You don't want that.''

However, T-Pain does think his pal will be a fantastic father to his little girl.

He added: ''I think it's gonna be good. I think he's going to be great. If he has the child around enough - and I don't know how that works with flights and stuff - but he'll figure it out.''

Meanwhile, it was recently revealed that Kim, 32, and Kanye, 36, are so paranoid about friends leaking information on the baby to the press that they are making everyone who comes to visit sign a confidentiality agreement.

The insider added: ''Anyone and everyone who comes to visit, including family, has to sign a six page NDA [non disclosure agreement] before even entering the house. Kanye wants this special time with their new daughter to be extremely private and when information about the baby is released it will be on Kanye's terms.''

Tina Fey warns her children against acting careers

Tina Fey has warned her daughters to avoid acting careers, instead urging them to consider becoming writers instead.

Tina Fey has urged her daughters to become writers, not actresses.

The '30 Rock' creator has revealed that she will encourage her two girls - Alice, seven, and 22-month-old Penelope - to pursue a behind the scenes career if they want to follow in her footsteps in TV because she thinks writing is just as important as acting.

Speaking to HELLO! magazine, she said: ''I once showed Alice a clip from the Broadway production of a 'Little Mermaid'. About five seconds in, she pointed to one of the actresses saying, 'I want to be her!'

''I was saying, 'Oh no honey, you don't want to be her, you want to be the person who writes the lines she says!' ''

When asked what she tells her girls about her professional life, Tina said: ''That it's at least as interesting to be working behind the scenes as it is in front of them.''

The 'Mean Girls' writer and star believes she has former United States governor Sarah Palin - who became a notorious figure in the 2008 presidential election - to thank for her success in Hollywood because they look so much alike.

Tina decided to perform skits as Palin on sketch show 'Saturday Night Live', which made her a household name.

She reminisced: ''I happened to be in the right place at the right time to progress in 'Saturday Night Live', then a giant piece of luck came along in that I happen to look like Sarah Palin. There's no way you could have predicted that something like that could've happened to me.''

Tom Cruise pays for $50k to keep Suri safe

Tom Cruise reportedly pays $50,000-a-week on bodyguards to protect his seven-year-old daughter Suri to ensure she's safe at all times.

Tom Cruise spends $50,000 a week on bodyguards for his daughter Suri.

The 50-year-old actor has people watching his seven-year-old child 24-hours-a-day while she is living in New York City with her mother Katie Holmes and he is more than happy to splash the cash to keep her safe.

One of the 'Oblivion' star's motivations for hiring security is the constant paparazzi that follow Suri and his ex-wife around at all times.

A source told the new US issue of OK! magazine: ''Tom is always surrounded by two rings of plain clothed security agents. That goes double for his precious daughter. Katie believes money is no object when it comes to the safety of Suri and insisted Tom handle that side of things. She'd go broke if she had to pay for it and it's a total necessity with the enormous interest in Suri.

''These guys are highly trained. They legally carry weapons. When in LA they keep guns in the trunks of Katie's SUV limos. When in New York, they have licenses to carry firearms on their person.''

Katie is appreciative of her former husband's gesture and the security guards give the high profile actress peace of mind.

The source added: ''Katie knows the guys are the best in the world and she can breathe a lot easier with them on the job. Suri has the Rolls Royce of security guys watching out for her.''
