Actress P*amela Anderson has been forced to move into a mobile home while her house is refurbished - and she loves her humble new abode.

The former Baywatch star and her two sons, Brandon, 12, and Dylan, 10, are living in a trailer while her Californian property undergoes renovation.

And the s*ex symbol is adamant she is having a blast in her new home.

She says, "I live in a mobile home and I love it! It's small but chic and perfect for me and the kids. It's fun having to sit on beanbags and do our washing at the laundrette." l

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe is enjoying his run in Broadway play Equus - because he can go unrecognised in the busy New York streets.

The actor, 19, is currently living in the U.S. while starring in the live stage show, and he insists the Big Apple provides welcome relief to his native U.K., where he is constantly spotted by fans.

And Radcliffe is convinced it is his diminutive height - he is 1.6 metres (5 foot, 5 inches) - that keeps him from being noticed.

He tells the New York Post, "The other day, I walked through Battery Park City up around Wall Street for about two hours, and I wasn't stopped once. I'm so short, no one notices me." l

Model-turned-entrepreneur Elle MacPherson is convinced the current global economic crisis is having a positive affect on her underwear brand - because business is booming.

The former catwalk beauty launched her Elle Macpherson Intimates line in 1990 and it has become one of the world's most successful lingerie companies.

And despite the international financial crisis, the star insists that women are still buying her underwear.

She says, "In these hard times you find that when a woman can't afford a dress in the luxury echelons, she may opt instead to part with GBP20 ($31) on underwear that makes her feel good.

"In a difficult market we're doing better than we ever did." l

Socialite Paris Hilton has vowed never to have plastic surgery - because she is convinced it makes people look older.

The 27-year-old insists she has never gone under the surgeon's knife - and swears she never will.

She says, "I love being all-natural. A lot of girls who are 21, they have a lot of work done and they look 40. It ages you. And you're going to have to maintain it. By the time you're 30, you're going to look like you're 50. By the time you're 50, your face is going to fall off." l

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe headed to the U.S. polling booths on Election Day - even though he wasn't allowed to vote.

The British-born actor, 19, is currently starring in Broadway stage show Equus - and although he wasn't eligible to vote, he made sure he could soak up the atmosphere by tagging along with one of his American co-stars.

Millions of U.S. citizens, including celebrities like Tim Robbins, LL Cool J, Lindsay Lohan and Pharrell Williams, queued for hours to log their votes at the ballot box - with Democrat Barack Obama eventually being announced as the new president.

And Radcliffe was delighted to have witnessed the monumental scenes at the polls near New York University.

He tells the New York Post, "Barack Obama's treated like the Messiah in England.

"We don't have particularly inspirational politicians, certainly no one who can draw crowds in the thousands." l

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's talent agent has been dragged into a legal battle with a former female assistant - amid accusations of s*exual harassment.

Heather Devlin claims Todd Shemarya created a hostile work environment by exposing her to internet ----, "parading n*aked" around her, and even mocking his Hollywood clients - who also include Leonardo DiCaprio and Pitt's ex-wife Jennifer Aniston.

In a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday, Devlin further alleges that Shemarya, co-founder of Todd Shemarya Associates (Tsa), stole a pair of vintage Cartier watches sent to clients Pitt and Aniston, while they were married, and gave them to a friend as a wedding present.

The suit also recalls an incident in which Shemarya showed Devlin photos of a nude Pitt from a banned 1997 issue of Playgirl magazine while "ridicul(ing) the size of Pitt's pe**s" and referring to Aniston as "an ugly b**ch".

Devlin maintains she was fired after nine years as Shemarya's assistant, months after he hired his g*ay lover and put him in charge of some of her accounts.

Devlin's lawyer Keith A. Fink tells the New York Post's gossip column Page Six, "Ms. Devlin was exposed to a constant barrage of offensive s*exual, racial and religious comments. Tsa's celebrity clients would usually be the centre of his ridicule."

However, Shemarya has furiously denied the allegations, saying: "These are false accusations. This is a disgruntled employee who I fired about a year ago. And now she's trying to extort money."l

Jerry Bruckheimer has been out and about, talking about the big projects he’s producing for Disney, in particular Pirates of the Caribbean 4 and The Lone Ranger. The guys at Coming Soon caught up with him, and got him to address some, if not all of the rumors surrounding those two projects.

He avoided addressing some of the more pressing rumors around Pirates, such as Tim Burton being considered to direct Pirates 4 or Russell Brand being cast in the film along with Depp, but he did drop some concrete facts about where things stand. For Pirates of the Caribbean 4, they’re just starting work on the script. Elliot and Rossio, who wrote the first three Pirates movies are back and working on the new sequel. It seems they’re also writing The Lone Ranger. Bruckheimer says they’re shooting for a 2012 release, and that they’ll do Pirates 4 in IMAX if they can.

As for The Lone Ranger, Bruckheimer laid some of those Clooney casting rumors to rest. Yes, Johnny Depp is playing Tonto, but Bruckheimer says they still don’t know who will be their Lone Ranger. They’re out to find a director for it first.l
