Jay-Z and Beyonce rent holiday home for a staggering $400,000

Jay-Z and Beyonce Knowles have splashed out $400,000 to rent a holiday home for the whole of August.

The couple are to take their seven-month-old daughter Blue Ivy to the Hamptons - an exclusive group of villages in Long Island, New York - for the first time by letting the 11-acre property on Halsey Lane in Bridgehampton, known as the Sandcastle, which is currently on the market for $43.5 million.

Jay and Beyonce will be able to relax in the property's 60-foot heated pool, which comes complete with underwater stereo system, and if they are feeling sporty then the two-lane bowling alley, virtual golf facilities, skateboard half-pipe or tennis court might be useful.

The Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It) hitmaker can also take the opportunity to teach her daughter some of the tricks of the showbiz trade in the home's "children's performing area", and the property also features squash, racquetball and basketball courts with moving walls and a retractable hoop, according to the listing on Corcoran.com. It's not the first time the house - which the Jonas Brothers were once thought to be interested in purchasing - has been rented out for a staggering fee.

In 2010, single mother Cheryl Mercuris paid $500,000 to let the abode for just two weeks in an attempt to find a billionaire husband - but she is said to have failed in her mission.

Mallika Sherawat isn't married yet because she's "still waiting" for love

Actress Mallika Sherawat revealed that she is single because she is searching for true love.

"Love is the most important thing for me. I haven't got married yet because I am still waiting for it (love)," Mallika Sherawat said.

The actress spoke during the launch of the first look of her film Kismat, Love, Paisa, Dilli (KLPD).
Her co-star in the film, Vivek Oberoi, also gives prime importance to love.

"Money is okay, it comes and goes. But only the lucky ones find love," said the actor, who married Priyanka Alva in 2010.

Talking about the film's story, Vivek Oberoi said: "It's a story of one night in Delhi. The protagonist, Lucky Duggal, is in search of kismet (luck), love and paisa (money). He gets all that in Delhi, then loses it and gets it back again."

The movie is directed by Sanjay Khanduri.

Kareena gets catty about Katrina in Heroine?

As rivals for the number one actress spot, Kareena Kapoor and Katrina Kaif have never been friends, despite both actresses' close relationship with Salman Khan. Now, rumour has it that Heroine has given Kareena a chance to take aim at Katrina, at least on screen.

This report in The Times Of India says that one scene in the film has Kareena's character remark to a film journalist that another actress has only made it big because of the backing of her superstar boyfriend (in real life, Salman).

Not convinced she means Katrina? There's more. Kareena's character also goes on to say that the journalist should check the other actress' passport for her real name and nationality. That's pretty much what Deepika Padukone infamously said about Katrina on Koffee With Karan some seasons ago.

Kareena was reportedly reluctant to do the scene initially but was convinced by director Madhur Bhandarkar who argued in favour of the sizeable contingent of actresses non-Indian or partly Indian origin who come to Bollywood to try their luck.

Will Katrina retaliate? And how will Salman, who Kareena starred in the superhit Bodyguard and is close friends with, respond?
