It’s the first day of the week and the day has begun with a blast. From One-Direction star Liam Pyne breaking up with his girlfriend to Heidi Klum going topless; the world in the west is buzzing with hot happenings.
TellyChakkar has got all the hottest updates – break-up, sad demise, Ariana’s inking, love affairs and a lot -- in today’s Hollywood updates.
Heidi Klum goes topless for shoot, doesn't fear ageing
At 45, model Heidi Klum has posed topless for a photo shoot. She says nudity became normal for her during her childhood days and feels there's no "time frame" for being able to wear or do a certain thing in life.
Klum went shirtless for the cover of Ocean Drive's issue, wearing only a pair of printed bikini bottoms with her hair styled in effortless waves, reports etonline.com
"I grew up being very comfortable with my body and very free and I tend to not wear a whole lot of swimsuit when I am sunbathing. So I usually go for a tie-string bikini, something that has less coverage, and if no one is around, I'll wear only the bottom," said the America's Got Talent judge.
She grew up in "a very free environment" with her parents in Bergisch Gladbach, Germany.
"We'd go to nude beaches. We're very open-minded, but you can't say that about all Germans. We didn't have a lot of money, so we'd go camping a lot and my parents chose nude campsites, so nudity became normal for me. You stand out more if you cover up. And I loved it," said Klum, who turned 45 on 1 June.
Ageing does not bother her.
"I see it like this: we only have one life. This is our life right now and our moment, and our moment shouldn't be over after a certain age. There's not a time frame for only being able to wear a certain thing or to be in love, to go out. Thirty years old is not the cap and then you have to hide yourself and not go dancing anymore.”
"I'm not saying people should be doing what I'm doing, but I hope that one day I will be an old woman looking back and able to say I enjoyed every phase of my life," she added.

Katie Price snorted cocaine after marriage breakdown
TV personality and former glamour model Katie Price snorted cocaine after the breakdown of her five-year marriage to cheating husband Kieran Hayler.
She told OK! Magazine last month that her estranged husband had cheated on her with a 19-year-old girl who worked in their local Co-op. Now it has emerged that Price snorted cocaine after the breakdown of her marriage, reports dailymail.co.uk.
The mother of five, 40, confided in friends that she turned to the substance on a couple of occasions while drinking after becoming "severely depressed" after discovering multiple affairs, reports The Sun.
A source told the publication that Price is "ashamed" of what she did.
"It was her way of blotting things out. She was in a tough place emotionally but knows that is no excuse," said the source.
"She just did cocaine socially and did not have a habit or a problem. Her kids were never exposed to it. Katie realised she had to sort herself out for the sake of the kids. She hasn't touched anything for months," the source added.
Price confirmed her split from Hayler, 31, in May after months of attempting to save their marriage following his affair with the family nanny Nikki Brown.

Singer Ed Sheeran has filed a lawsuit against musician Sam Chokri after losing royalties to his song "The Shape Of You". The latter claimed the song was a copy of his 2015 track "Oh Why".
Sheeran has not received royalties from the song, said to have amassed 20 million pounds in revenue, since 10 May when the Performing Rights Society ruled in favour of Chokri and put the track into "suspense", reports The Sun.

Grant says his wife was kidnapped in Paris
Actor Hugh Grant says his wife Anna Eberstein was kidnapped by a taxi driver in Paris when he refused to pay for the ride.
The 57-year-old actor narrated the incident during an appearance on Late Night With Seth Meyers, where he admitted the entire debacle came from the fact he was unable to pay the taxi's fare, reports dailymail.co.uk.
Grant got married to Swedish producer Anna, 39, last month in Kensington. They went to Paris for honeymoon.
Grant told Meyers that after jumping into a taxi with Anna, he realised he had no cash to pay 5.30 pound fare, and so asked the driver to take him to a cash machine.
Upon arrival the machine failed to work, and Grant went onto reveal the driver decided to leave the scene with his wife still in the car.
He said, "I panicked and said to my new wife, 'Get out the car'. The taxi driver said, 'What are you doing?'
"I said, 'Your machine doesn't work so we're not paying'. At which point he kidnapped her. He drove off with my wife."
Grant then quipped, "I always have a fight with a taxi driver in Paris."
Robbins slams Trump's immigration policies, Muslim travel ban
Actor-director Tim Robbins has expressed outrage at US immigration policies and the Supreme Courts new ruling allowing President Donald Trumps travel ban on some predominantly Muslim countries to stand.
"That Supreme Court decision will be remembered as a disgrace," Robbins said at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival on Saturday, reports variety.com.
Robbins, who is getting the Crystal Globe for Outstanding Contribution to World Cinema honour at the gala, recently staged with The Actors' Gang theater ensemble in a play called The New Colossus. The play, inspired by hundreds of immigrants' stories, was staged by the plaque at the base of the Statue of Liberty, professing to welcome the world's teeming masses.
At the Karlovy Vary film fest, he is screening a film he wrote and directed that celebrates working class artists, Cradle Will Rock, and another that sends up dishonest, populist political candidates, Bob Roberts.
He said he is still surprised at how accurate Bob Roberts turned out to be.
Asked whether his outspoken beliefs on progressive causes have harmed his career, the actor-director said he wasn't sure. But, he added, if he didn't speak up when he encountered injustice, "I don't know that I would like myself very much. To know something and to not say anything, to me, is a betrayal of what a democracy is."
Robbins is currently developing an original script that explores "faith versus hypocrisy".

As a tribute to Smoke Dawg, Toronto-based rapper Drake shared a message along with an image on Instagram.
"All these gifts and blessed souls and inner lights being extinguished lately is devastating. I wish peace would wash over our city. So much talent and so many stories we never get to see play out. Rest up Smoke," he wrote.
Smoke Dawg, of Trinidadian, Jamaican and Somalian heritage, was part of an up and coming group of rappers called Halal Gang.
He gained success with hit song "Still" three years ago and later collaborated with American hip hop artiste French Montana and the UK's Skepta.
Last year, he started gaining international attention after supporting Drake on his Boy Meets World European tour.
