Rupert Grint, who plays Harry Potter’s trusty best friend Ron Weasley, is getting over swine flu. The British star took a few to several days (depending on who you believe) away from filming the latest film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, but has now been able to return to work.  The news comes three days before Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince premieres in London.

“It has just been confirmed that Rupert Grint has taken a few days out of filming due to a mild bout of swine flu,” his publicist Christian Hodell said.

“He has now recovered and is looking forward to joining his fellow cast members at the junket and premieres this week and will then return to filming directly afterwards.”

She said Grint’s doctor had confirmed that Rupert had recovered and was no longer contagious or at risk of infecting others.

“Other scenes were shot in his absence which did not require his involvement and thus filming was not disrupted,” she added.

The turbulent romance between Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel seems to be well on course for the rocks.

Insiders say the pair, who’ve been dating two years, have had problems for ages, but when Justin was spotted allegedly cheating at New York’s upscale nightspot, ‘Avenue One,’ recently, it brought poor Ms Biel to a boil. “Things don’t look good for them right now — they’ve hit a really rocky spot,” a close friend of Justin told News reporters.

They have not been out in public from that day to this.

Things apparently started to go sour back in February, when JT and some buddies took a boy’s trip to Vegas. “Justin once had to leave dinner, because Jessica was calling incessantly,” says a friend. “They got into a huge screaming match on the phone about how she’s always checking on him. She’s extremely needy and is always keeping tabs on where JT is.”

That opinion seems shared by most of Justin’s close friends, “All his friends think she’s really annoying,” confirms another insider. “She’s always trying to be one of the guys. She and Justin have no chemistry.”

If your connection’s that brittle, it’s not smart to put a whole ocean between you – but that is exactly what’s Justin’s just done: He hopped on a plane and landed in London, where the 28-year old actor has been quite a cad; First, he attended the ‘White Tie and Tiara’ ball at Elton John’s mansion in Windsor, then a gig with Prince Harry in the verdant Hyde Park. Next stop was Wimbledon, then he debuted his clothes line, and then came a long night of parties with ex ‘Mr. Madonna,’ Guy Ritchie.

“Jessica wanted to go with him,” says the friend. “But he wasn’t having it. He just wanted to get away. He needed his space from her.”

You might think poor Jessie’s been dissed…and some say you’re right, “Jessica is really fun to be around,” says Justin’s former ’N-Sync’ band-mate, Lance Bass. “I haven’t spoken to Justin in a while, but the last I knew, he really loved her.”

In this crazy business, who can you believe? Even their own people were no help at all - Justin’s rep wouldn’t comment on his boss’s personal life, and Miss Jessica’s people didn’t even call back…So, you get to decide.

Joining a select brotherhood that only comprises every sentient male on the planet, Harry Potter star, Rupert Grint has confessed he has quite a crush on fellow star, Emma Watson.

Rupert, whose work as Ron Weasley has made him a millionaire at the age of just 20, is quite coy on the news, “A lot of people think there’s something going on between us because I have to kiss Emma on film.” he says with a grin, “I’ll be honest - it’s not something I’m dreading. As for who has the worst crush on her – me or Radcliffe – I’d rather not say.”

But Rupert confirms that the much-lauded smooch, shown in ‘Half-Blood Prince,’ which bows on July 15, was a ‘weird’ experience. “We’ve known each other for ten years, so it was a bit like kissing my sister,” he told reporters.

That must be one smokin‘-hot sibling.

But not all his success has been schmoozing and spells; The redheaded actor, who has a deep fear of spiders, has also experienced the down-side of fame, “It’s taken me years to get used to being recognized in the street,” he admits. “But the most terrifying thing was a newspaper photo of a book-burning in the deep south. There was picture of my face on the fire, because those folks thought the films endorsed witchcraft. That’s when it hit me how big all this had become.”

On the upside, Mr. Grint, who earns $6-million a film, has now left his hand-prints at Grauman’s Chinese Theater, alongside most of the Hollywood greats.

But Rupert has not let either fame or the money affect him too much; While most famous actors have fleets of fast cars, Rupert’s transport of choice is a broken-down pickup, and a working ice-cream truck for when he needs fun. And he’s also no fool about love, “I know I could use the fame to meet women, but I don’t want to meet a girl who’s trying to take advantage of that. And I don’t Google myself because the results are too scary.”

It’s being reported that Michael Jackson’s 50-date residency at London’s 02 arena was also due to include a duet with his son, Prince Michael, Jr., “He wanted his kids to see him perform at least once, to get the vibe of the Michael Jackson mania,” former Jackson PR man, Stuart Backerman told Us. “He knew his kids would enjoy it.”

Since losing their world-famous father to cardiac arrest on June 25, all three children are said to be doing quite well. Jackson’s Mother, Katherine, was named as their guardian in Michael’s new will, which wholly ignores their surrogate mom, Debbie Rowe.

If Katherine were somehow unable to serve, Jackson’s next choice was his lifelong companion, Diana Ross.

The London concerts were set to be Jackson’s first time on a stage since 2001, but despite the loss his children are still in good spirits, “They’re happy,” Joe Jackson told a press conference, Monday. “They’re with the other young ones in the Jackson family…They were never around other kids.” he explained.

Jackson’s funeral is now set for the Staples Center on Tuesday, where his kids and the world can then say their goodbyes.

Having already tasted romantic success with Pamela Anderson, Halle Berry and a bevy of others we have yet to learn, London lothario Steve Jones’ latest conquest, Hayden Panettiere, has finally made him the dumpee.

Hayden, 19, canceled the short-lived affair with the 32-year old British TV presenter because she found out she doesn’t really like him that way, ‘I’m single and mingling. Steve lives in London, the distance is a bit too much.’ the ‘Heroes’ star told reporters.

The ex-couple met over dinner with friends at Nobu, an upscale restaurant in London. “There were a group of them there, including Elton John’s mate, David Furnish; But Hayden and Steve only had eyes for each other.” a source said of the pair at the time.

A few days later they skipped over the water to France, and were spied schmoozing on-board a yacht at the Cannes Film Festival, “Cannes was a great experience.” Hayden later recalled. “Some friends were going, so I decided to tag along. It was fun.”

For his part, Steve was said to be visibly thrilled by both the trip, and his choice of companion. But Hayden was not as impressed by her attentive suitor as Steve might have thought. “I’m not good at learning that sometimes you don’t like someone that way - and how to deal with it. I really don’t want to hurt his feelings.” Hayden explained to the scribes.

Having only recently parted from fellow Hero, Milo Ventimiglia, the 5′1” actress, known to her closest as ‘Mushroom.’ is sure to bounce back from this tiny detour.
