Naomi Watts will be starring on the silver screen as Britain's Princess Diana in a new film documenting the last few years of Lady Di's life. Production on the fill will start in Britain later in the year.

While the shocking automobile accident that brought upon Lady Di's death has been featured in many television movies, Caught In Flight will be the first big screen movie made about Princess Diana's unfortunate fate. Naomi Watts feels proud to have been chosen for this role, and stated,

"It was such an honor to be able to play this iconic role. Princess Diana was loved across the world and I look forward to rising to the challenge of playing her on screen."

Caught In Flight will focus on the last two years of Diana's life, particularly her two-year secret affair with Hasnat Khan, a heart surgeon, and her subsequent divorce from Prince Charles. According to British film studio Ecosse Films, the movie chronicles

"how finding true personal happiness for the first time allowed her to achieve defining success evolving into a major international campaigner and humanitarian."

Princess Diana was 36 years old when the tragic accident happened, adding to the "outpouring of worldwide grief." Oliver Hirschbiegel, director of Downfall, a movie chronicling Adolf Hitler's last days, will be directing this film.

A picture is worth a thousand words and the recent Sylvester Stallone/Arnold Schwarzenegger snap that's been circulating on the web brings one particular palabra to our minds – Machismo! The aging action stars were seen posing together on gurneys as they both prepped for shoulder surgery.

Now in their 60’s, Arnold and Sly have put their bodies through the ringer for their stunt-heavy movies. And, according to Schwarzenegger, it was pure coincidence that brought them together in the ER.

"After all the action, stunts & physical abuse shooting The Expendables 2 and The Last Stand, it was time for a little tune up on my shoulder,” he told fans on his blog. “Look who was coincidentally waiting in line behind me for his shoulder surgery. Now we're ready for another round of great times and action when we shoot The Tomb."

Indeed, the two will be appearing in quite a few movies together in the near future. But for now, it's probably best they get some R & R. Let's hope the guys can find a good helper to nurse them back to fighting shape.

With six decades in the music business, Vicente Fernandez has definitely had a good run. The legendary Mexican singer has sold millions of albums, performed around the world, and influenced generations of mariachi fans. And now, as he approaches his 72nd birthday, Vicente has decided it's time to retire from the stage.

Fernandez delivered the big news this week and made sure to let his fans know that it was a very difficult decision. But the rigors of life on the road is a bit too much for this aging abuelito.

"An artist needs to retire with a lot of dignity, in the right moment," he told interviewers. "And I think that this year I will say goodbye to all of you, to the public from Central, South America, I will say goodbye to Spain for all the love they gave me for many years."

But keep in mind that Vicente is not retiring from recording. He still plans on making new music and is willing to do TV appearances to promote his songs. And if you're really eager to see a Fernandez on the live circuit, you can always check out his son Alejandro.

Film and television star Gary Busey is headed for the poor house. Sources say he has accumulated over $500,000 in personal debt over the last few years.

Busey is reported to have less than $50,000 in assets, despite having starred in blockbuster films such as Point Break and Lethal Weapon, as well as lesser-knows campy horror flops like The Gingerdead Man (I kid you not. Watch Gary Busey play a murderous gingerbread man. You won't be disappointed).

The zany actor filed for bankruptcy on Tuesday in Los Angeles, providing little more detail than the few dozen creditors he listed. While he does not provide a detailed explanation of why he is filing for bankruptcy, his manager shared that this move on Busey's part provides him "a new and clear path to personal and career success."

Maybe he should have done more episodes of Celebrity Rehab or Celebrity Apprentice in order to keep that income rolling in. This could pose as a positive for Busey fans, however. Maybe he'll be strapped enough for cash to make more episodes of I'm With Busey. Let's keep our fingers crossed!

Do you think Gary Busey should keep making more television shows?

It's looking like baby boy Justin Bieber is teaming up with party animal Ke$ha on his next studio album release. The singer-songwriter will add her talent to Bieber vocals for an undoubtedly energetic ensemble.

Bieber's third studio album, Believe, will contain a track written by none other than Ke$ha herself. She will also be featured on the track, singing a duet with the Biebs, no doubt sizzling it up with her hip hop vibe. This is taking Bieber Fever to a whole other level now, considering Ke$ha is not exactly known for her tame and subtle ways.

This might be just what Justin needs to kick his stardom and up a notch and possibly increase his audience fanbase (if that were possible). Let's hope the "empress of glitter and unicorns" sprinkles some of that crazy powder on Bieber and gives the track some added flair.

Justin has also teamed up with Usher, once again, in the production of this new album. This dynamic duo of hip hop has sold plenty of records before, and will no doubt do it again. Watch out, fans. This might be Bieber's best release yet!

How do you feel about a Justin Bieber and Ke$ha duet?

Tell me what you want, what you really really want. Is it a Spice Girls reunion? If so, then you might be in luck.

The Spice Girls are apparently undergoing negotiations in hopes of reuniting in the near future. This time around, they're not just going for "wannabe" status, they're reuniting for more socially conscious causes like teen suicide and bullying.

There seems to be a sense of unfinished business among the group after stopping their 2008 tour short because of "family and personal commitments." The Spice Girls seem to have more on their agenda now. According to a source,

"The whole idea of girl power and using that to fight against bullying and teen suicide is something that has been discussed."

The only thing that seems to be holding the group back is their busy schedules, especially that of Mel B. Scary Spice is a busy bee these days with Dancing With the Stars and X Factor. The source shares,

"They have a lot to figure out. Right now it is all just talking."

Have you secretly been hoping for a Spice Girls reunion?

Think you know Pauly D from the Jersey Shore? Despite what you may have seen of the Rhode Island native on the MTV show, Paul Delvecchio is way more than just GTL and haircuts.

I bet you didn't even know that he recently toured with Britney Spears or that he just signed a deal with 50 Cent's G-Note Records. Now thanks to the upcoming Jersey Shore spin-off "The Pauly D Project" you definitely will. Honestly, it's about time we get a Jersey Shore spin-off and they couldn't have picked a better house mate to focus on than Pauly.

The reality show plans to follow the DJ through his adventures in the chaotic music industry and his rise to fist-pumping stardom. Unfortunately Snooki and the rest of the gang will not be along for the ride but the show promises to introduce an original cast of crazy characters that help Pauly along the way. Among these is Pauly's road manager, Michael "Biggie" Morgan and his personal bodyguard, Gerard "Big Jerry" Gialanella. MTV pokes at the fact that Pauly's new boss, Mr. 50 Cent himself, might make a couple of appearances.

The DJ revealed his thoughts on the new show,

"It'll probably be along the lines of, I used to be this DJ in Rhode Island DJing two sets a week, hustling, promoting. And all of a sudden, I'm on this show, and now they're sending private jets for me to DJ for these huge crowds, yet i'm still the same guy that was DJing for 200 people, just loving life."

Pauly D is just one of eight cast members who created a phenomenon that for the past five seasons has produced everything from Halloween costumes to novels (remember "A Shore Thing" by Nicole Polizzi aka Snooki?). There is no telling what Pauly D will have in store for fans when "The Pauly D Project" premieres, tune in at 10:30pm Thursday March 29th on MTV!

Leonardo Dicaprio is not what many would call a religious man despite his devotion to angels, Victoria's Secret angels that is. In the past the actor has been linked to heavenly models like Giselle Bundchen, Bar Rafaeli and Kristen Zang, just to name a few.

The Oscar nominated actor was recently spotted cruising the beaches of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico with his latest love interest, Erin Heatherton.

The 22 year old blonde beauty is a Victoria's Secret model that has repeatedly strutted her stuff down the famous VS fashion show catwalk. The model reportedly met the 38 year old actor during the 2011 fashion show and has been attached to him ever since.

Think this is just another repeat of his two second fling with Blake Lively? Think again. Cabo San Lucas is one of Dicaprio's favorite vacation spots and it has been rumored that he only takes his serious girlfriends there. Furthermore, his mother Irmelin accompanied the pair (talk about a chaperone!) on the Mexican getaway. Like many Hollywood power players, Dicaprio has a strong relationship with his mother and any girl she approves of is definitely girlfriend material.

HOLA magazine reports that Heatherton and Irmelin get along incredibly well,

"Their first meeting was a total success, Erin and Irmelin immediately connected."

The local paparazzi that photographed the pair report that the couple shared plenty of laughs and kisses while on the beach. With his mother's approval, could this be the girl that finally gets Leonardo all to herself? Only time will tell how this romance plays out. Hopefully this angel will bring Leonardo back down to earth.

Do you think this couple will last? Sound off in the comments or @MTV3.

It seems the nasty middle finger gesture isn't the only news circling around M.I.A. these days. The  controversial singer and her longtime partner, Benjamin Bronfman, are breaking up.

London-born M.I.A. spends most of her life in the United Kingdom, while Ben lives in New York. This living arrangement has been going on for a while, which doesn't bode well for serious relationships. The couple has apparently been living separate lives for a while now.

The couple originally met in London a few years ago, and M.I.A. gave birth to their son, Ikhyd Edgar Arular Bronfman, a year later in 2009. Ikhyd is being raised by his father Ben, with help from his mother, Sherry Bronfman. According to a source from the New York Daily News, the 36 year old singer "sometimes goes six weeks without seeing her family."

M.I.A. has previously entertained the notion of marrying Bronfman for immigration issues, but has discounted it.

"That;s what they (immigration officials) want me to do, but I'm not going to lose my integrity for that s**t... I actually want a nice wedding. I'm not going to blow that. If they're gonna kick me out, it's going to be a fight, it's an important fight to have."

Well it seems there won't be a wedding after all. At least not to Benjamin. Seems M.I.A. just gave him the finger.

Would you split from your babydaddy because of distance or would you try to sort it out?

Lights, camera, divorce! The world watched as Kim Kardashian lived out her fairy tale romance alongside NBA star Kris Humphries, but will we get to see them battle it out in divorce court? According to Mr. Humphries this is a definite possibility, apparently the 72 days he was married to Kim were not the most blissful ones.

Kris, along with his attorney, Lee Hutton, plan on televising the divorce to expose Kim as a liar who only wanted to get married to raise the ratings for her E! reality show.

Whether or not Kim's intentions were true, her ridiculously over-the-top fairy tale wedding racked up more than 10.5 million viewers, the highest in E's history. Kardashian-mania was rampant and as interests peaked, Kourtney and Kim took the opportunity to take New York as well as more ratings and endorsement deals. Millions all over the world have been tuning in to the sister's hit spin-off to find out what exactly went wrong in this seemingly perfect fairy tale.

Taking all of this into consideration, it's pretty to easy to see why Kris would think that Kim is taking advantage of the situation. Either that or he picked up a few tricks from his ex and figured that if millions tuned in for the wedding millions more would tune in for the divorce.

Yet, Kim Kardashian is not going down without a fight and she is formally petitioning for a private mediator with the help of her attorney Laura Wasser. This would mean that cameras would not be allowed inside of the court room and, if Kim has her way, any other future encounters between the pair.

A source tells RadarOnline.com,

"Kim doesn't want a long drawn out trial. She wants the mediation to be private, confidential and legally binding. She and Kris have no assets together and kept separate bank accounts, so this is a fairly routine divorce proceeding. Kim just wants this over and done with."

But this is definitely far from over. Kris is refusing to acknowledge "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for separation and is calling fraud on Kim thereby annulling the marriage altogether (¡qué novela!). We'll be sure to keep an eye out for the next chapter in this never ending divorce saga.
