The year 2010 threw us a few curve balls all right. There was vajazzling (Swarovskis for your lady parts, for the uninitiated), Gaga's confounding, nay, exceptionally counfounding meat dress, and The All New Deepika Padukone circa That Infamous Koffee With Karan Episode. I, for one, was surprised, and quite pleasantly too. In the few conversations I've had with the swannish actress since she glided into the spotlight four years ago, Deepika has been nothing if not perfectly poised, measured with her words and shown the kind of good-natured reserve 20-somethings are not exactly famous for. Then came the nationally broadcasted giggle fest with her alleged one-time nemesis, Sonam Kapoor, where she threw caution to the wind and was uncharacteristically candid about her famous ex, Ranbir Kapoor, saying decidedly un-Deepika things like 'He should endorse a condom brand'.

Liz Hurley dumps Shane Warne over sex text scandal
Liz Hurley has apparently dumped Shane Warne after learning that the cricketer had sent sexual text messages to a married Australian woman .
An Australian man, Denis Angeleri, claims his wife, Adele, was wooed by Warne with a series of explicit texts, according to the News Of The World and The Sunday Mirror.
The pair had met when Warne called into her leather goods shop opposite his office at the Shane Warne Foundation in Melbourne.
According to the paper, they exchanged numbers and Warne began texting her, becoming progressively more suggestive. Adele grew worried and eventually told her husband, Denis, on December 3.
Warne had begged him to keep the matter secret for the sake of his family, however, Warne was "also clearly terrified Liz would discover his double-dealing".
"There weren''t that many texts anyway," The News Of The World quoted Warne as telling Angeleri.
But the paper said Warne sent her more than 100 messages, while simultaneously cultivating his relationship with Hurley.
According to the paper, it was only a few days after his confrontation with Angeleri that Warne met up with Hurley in London.
Warne, now in Perth commentating on the Third Ashes Test for Channel Nine, hit social networking site Twitter to lament the latest saga.
"The journey of life is about riding the ups/downs," the Daily Telegraph quoted him as Tweeting.
"We all are childish, immature at times. It''s about how you bounce back when things are tough."
On Friday night he tweeted: "4.45am here in Perth. Not really a wink of sleep. Tossed and turned all night, feeling extremely grumpy."
Hurley also wrote on Twitter to shut down reports she would spend time with Warne in Australia in the coming weeks.
And, in a further blow to Warne, she said she had no plans to divorce her estranged husband, Indian textile heir Arun Nayar any time soon.
"Bored now of silly speculations: no one is divorcing anyone yet, no one is fighting over money and I have no plans to go to Australia. Enough!" she wrote

“Tony had Erin’s personal information stored in anelectronicprogram that only he could access,” says the source. “But one day he forgot to close theprogram and that’s when Eva found it.
“It was a double shot for her because not only did she find all the information but Eva also realized immediately that Tony had taken steps to hide it from her.
“The fact that Tony had been hiding Erin’sinformation and their correspondence made Eva feel like he had been lying to her for months, and basically he had been.”
“They have a long-distance marriage and that alone is not easy,” the source said. “There was already a lot of stress between them. But then when Eva discovered Tony had taken elaborate measures to lie to her she knew it was over.”
Even though source are saying Tony and Erin weren’t having an affair, apparently the texts between them were super racy.
“Their text messages weren’t innocent,” says the insider. “They were way, way over the line.”
“That’s how the whole thing started between Erin and Tony. They would go out as couples and there was a strong attraction. Then they started secretly talking to each other and then that progressed to flirting and then it got worse from there.”
Sources say Tony didn’t know Eva was going to tell the press about the text messages. What is he, an idiot?? Eva is obviously out to get Tony back for everything he did. I’d imagine this is just the beginning of a long and drawn-out battle.
