Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher are leading new Hollywood worst-dressed poll

Hollywood couple Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher are leading a new Hollywood worst-dressed poll.

People for The Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) bosses have declared the fur-wearing pair are fashion victims - and animal lovers voting online seem to agree.

Moore is the current number one on PETA's annual list of shame, while her toyboy husband comes in second for "skulking around the Sundance Film Festival wearing a gigantic coat made of coyote fur."

Also making the selections on PETA's Worst-Dressed List this year: Madonna, Jessica Simpson, Lindsay Lohan, Kanye West, Mary J. Blige and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.

Animal lovers can vote for their worst-dressed celebrity online until 2 March.

Last year, soul star Aretha Franklin topped the list, followed by Marilyn Manson.

Naomi Campbell's support behind breast cancer awareness campaign

British supermodel Naomi Campbell has thrown her support behind a major breast cancer awareness campaign after witnessing the devastating effects of the disease on her own family.

The catwalk beauty officially opened a new cancer research unit at a London hospital this week (beg09Feb09) and used the opportunity to open up about her mother's brush with the killer illness.

Campbell's mum, Valerie, was diagnosed with a particularly aggressive form of cancer but after several months of treatment, she is said to be in remission.

And Campbell admits it has been a tough time for all of her relatives.

She says, "It's something that's never really happened in my family, so it was researching, reading a lot of books, finding out about how to take care of her, what was the best treatment and where to get the best treatment.

"It just made me more aware because up until that point I hadn't got checked on a regular basis like you should. I heard about breast cancer but I just thought it's never going to happen to me. But now I've learnt it doesn't discriminate, this disease, it can happen to anybody. As someone who's seen breast cancer first hand I know it can be a devastating disease."

The $6 million (£4.2 million) unit at London's Guy's Hospital has been funded by charity organisation Breakthrough Breast Cancer and is the first of its kind in the U.K.

Chris Brown with Paris Hilton in hotel...........

Socialite Paris Hilton is the latest celebrity forced to deny flirting with Chris Brown on the night of his alleged fight with girlfriend Rihanna - following a flurry of rumours linking her to the incident.

Hilton is one of a number of female stars accused of causing an argument between the couple by getting too close to the Kiss Kiss singer.

The hotel heiress was seen chatting to Brown at a pre-Grammy Awards party in Los Angeles on Saturday night.

He later left the event with Rihanna and subsequently became embroiled in a police investigation sparked by an emergency call suggesting he had beaten an unnamed female.

Reports later identified the woman involved as his girlfriend, Rihanna, who was allegedly hospitalised on Sunday.

Brown later turned himself in to police and was charged with making criminal threats.

Speculation has been growing about what caused the alleged bust-up, with many internet gossips claiming another woman sparked the incident.

British pop star Leona Lewis and singer/actress Keisha Chante have already denied involvement - and now Hilton has been forced to comment following reports she got cosy with Brown at the pre-Grammy bash

She tells Radar Online, "That's ridiculous and an outright lie. I was not 'all over him' as some magazine reported. I said 'hello' and that was it. I love Rihanna and that never happened."
