Britney Spears parties until 4am to celebrate her engagement

By Andrea Petrou on December 19th, 2011

Britney Spears partied until 4am to celebrate her engagement on Friday.

The ‘Hold It Against Me’ singer threw a joint engagement and 40th birthday party for her fiance Jason Trawick at the Chateau club in Las Vegas, spending money on Dom Perignon champagne and a chocolate fountain to adorn the room.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “Britney made sure there was plenty of Dom Perignon champagne flowing throughout the bash. She had a couple of glasses herself. She stayed until 4am when she and Jason returned to their 50th floor suite.”

Writing on twitter, Britney said: “Tonight was one of the most magical nights of my life. Such an amazing time with my new fiance and our closest friends and family. Blessed. (sic)”

Meanwhile, Neil Lane, the designer responsible for designing the engagement ring Jason gave to Britney has revealed he has been creating the piece of jewellery – which features one main diamond and 90 smaller gems on an eternity band – for some time while she has been touring the world.

He told People: “Jason is a romantic and when I asked him to tell me about Britney and what the ring would represent to them so I could find inspiration, his response was always the same – she is a princess.

“Texts came from all over the world, from Abu Dhabi to Mexico and I don’t know where else.”

Despite the ring being created when he was away, Jason was delighted with the final piece hen he went to pick it up from his store in Los Angeles.

Neil added: “Oh my god he loved it. The guy was so excited and nervous. At the end of the day, even with all the fame, he’s still a normal guy who was about to propose to the woman he loves.”

Charlize Theron thinks marriage is a “divine right” but does not want to wed herself

By Andrea Petrou on June 30th, 2011

Charlize Theron thinks marriage is a “divine right” but does not want to wed herself.

The Oscar winning ‘Monster’ actress is pleased about a vote in New York which allows same sex couples to marry, she’s doesn’t believe the US government is doing enough, as it is still banned in most states.

She said: “It’s a divine right and when government starts to tell us who can love and what is good love, I do have a problem with that.

“I have a problem with the fact that our government hasn’t stepped up enough to make this federal, to make this legal.”

South Africa born Charlize – who split with long term partner Stuart Townsend last year – enjoys being in a secure, long term relationship but personally sees no reason to have a marriage ceremony for herself.

Speaking on TV show ‘Piers Morgan Tonight’, she added: “I really want for myself a long-term relationship. And I have been in long-term relationships.

“That’s the kind of union that I want. The actual ceremony is not something that is important to me—but I see the importance for other people.”

The 23-year-old model sat down with Brazilian TV show Fantástico, to open up about his relationship with the Queen of Pop for the first time.

I can’t say anything else besides that. She is a friend, and nothing but a friend.”

“We were introduced by photographer Steven Klein. I thought she was a wonderful person, full of positive energy,” he added.
