German billionaire Adolf Merckle, has committed suicide because of the global financial crisis and his business empire crumbling.

Kate Hudson was interviewed for the February issue of Elle magazine, and in it she opens up about her personal life and career.

Hey, she's hot a new movie - Bride Wars - to whore out!

So, just how important is a good sex life? Pretty important, Kate says. Especially according to her mother, Goldie Hawn.

Kate tells the mag, "People think that you can put your sexual life on hold, but you have to find time for it. Without that relationship, our family is broken. My mom really implanted that in me when I was pregnant."

As for Kate's view on divorce, she doesn't blame it on getting married too young to musician Chris Robinson.

She says sometimes people just grow apart, adding "sometimes maybe age doesn't have anything to do with it. Sometimes it's really just compatibility or where you're going or what you're interested in."

But she adds that they are all on good terms. She says, "Somebody's ego is going to be bruised and hurt, and that pride element can be very destructive. We've made it work. You have to. I think it's inexcusable if you don't, personally. No matter how exhausting it is. Even when people have really nasty breakups, there is no excuse not to make it work for your children. And I think anybody who finds themselves in a situation where it's not working has to look at themselves and really, like, check in."

The 82-year-old Playboy founder – who is now dating 19-year-old twins Karissa and Kristina Shannon since his split from Playmates Holly Madison and Kendra Wilkinson – had a loveless childhood and resorted to visiting the cinema in his quest to find out more about his emotions. He said: “Everything I learned about love, I learned from the movies. The reality is because I was not shown affection, I escaped into an alternate universe, and it came right out of the movies. Love for me is defined almost exclusively in terms of romantic love as defined by the films of my childhood. “The movies, other than family, were the major influence of my childhood. I was in a very typical Midwestern, Methodist home with a lot of repression and not much demonstrative expression of emotion. My escape was the darkened theatre.” wenn The aging lothario also claims his childhood passion for movies heavily influenced his taste in women. He explained: “I think my fascination with blonds is directly connected to the impact the platinum blonds had in the movies of the 1930s. Jean Harlow, Alice Faye, all of those Busby Berkeley showgirls. You cant go wrong. Well, you probably could, but what fun. Hugh – who will give Kendra away when she marries Hank Baskett later this year – also revealed one of the things he is most proud of is staying friends with his exes. The twice-divorced media mogul added to the Los Angeles Times newspaper: “Brian Grazer, who is working on a movie about me, made a comment that I was the only man who had made love to over a thousand women and they all still liked him. “And I do take some pride, in fact, that I remain friends with the majority of former wives and girlfriends. I am a romantic.

Spike Lee, who is usually known for making controversy, is now just making complaints.

He claims he's not "rich-rich" saying, "Rich is Spielberg. Lucas. Gates. Steve Jobs. Jay-Z! Bruce Springsteen. I'm not complaining. But that's money. Will Smith. Oprah Winfrey - that's a ton of money. Compared to them, I'm on welfare!"

Oh really? Can welfare afford houses on the Upper East Side and Martha's Vineyard, and private school for the kiddies?

Oh okay, so one time he was spotted with his fam flying economy class…to the Bahamas!
