‘Glee’ star spoke with More! magazine about meeting on the set of ‘What To Expect When You’re Expecting’, where both he and the Girls Aloud star have roles in the Kirk Jones directed movie.

“I’m usually good with accents, but it did take me a second,” Morrison said about Cheryl’s accent. “It was actually really refreshing to meet her, because as someone who comes to London a lot, you can’t leave there without hearing about Cheryl Cole – she’s everywhere. So it was great to have a conversation with her as a human being and to get to know her. She was lovely… and so beautiful.”

The English pop singer, who released her debut album ‘Perfectionist’ last year, writes:

@LauraKills3 I don’t mass name my fans… I respect you all as individuals…

@xxCALLMEKILLSxx Not trying to confuse anyone, but everyone I meet/talk to gets called “Love”, “Lover”, “Dollface”, “Sweetheart” or “Doll”

@xxCALLMEKILLSxx That goes for my friends, fans, folks & boyfriends too… it’s not a mass name, it’s a pleasantry and term of endearment! xx

Guy Sebastian On ‘The Voice’ Drama With His Brother Chris & Delta Goodrem

Guy Sebastian

visited the Kyle and Jackie O Show to talk about his brother Chris choosing to join Team Seal over Delta Goodrem on ‘The Voice’, which Delta wasn’t too happy about.

“I think for Delta she was just being real protective because we are mates,” Guy said. “She thought, at least if I had Chris, I could look after him and I want to do the right thing by Guy. She called me when I was in LA and she was quite upset, but she’s got such a good heart, Delta, and she was pretty upset. But I think it was sort of weird for Chris because he felt, ‘What if she needs to bugger me off’. What if she needs to say, nah Chris, you’re not in my finals.” Guy added that Chris didn’t want it to make it appear like he had it easy on the show having a famous brother and a mentor like Delta who is friends with the brothers.
