A Hollywood actor, who has also starred in a number of popular TV series, has died aged 83 and his wife has decided not to share details of his death with the world08:52, 01 Sep 2025Updated 08:52, 01 Sep 2025The actor has died aged 83-years-old(Image: Getty)A legendary Hollywood actor has died aged 83, his family has confirmed.Acting icon Randy Boone was most recognised for his role as the singing, guitar-playing ranch hand Randy Benton on the popular NBC series The Virginian, starring alongside James Drury and Doug McClure, riding his own horse.Boone’s wife Lana confirmed that he passed away on Thursday 28 August 28 but chose not to share any further details about his death with The Hollywood Reporter. Besides his role on The Virginian, Boone also had regular roles on two other successful 60s shows, It’s a Man’s World and Western Cimarron Strip, although both programmes only ran for one series each.He later secured a part in an episode of The Twilight Zone as a National Guardsman sent back in time to participate in the Battle of the Little Bighorn. He joined The Virginian during its second series in February 1964, remaining on the show for two seasons and appearing in 46 episodes before being released at the end of the fourth season in April 1966.Randy starred in films such as Country Boy and Dr Minx(Image: LMPC, LMPC via Getty Images)In Paul Green’s 2006 book A History of Television’s The Virginian, Boone discussed his departure from the show: “I was told that [producer] Frank [Price] thought I was window dressing and wasn’t needed on the show, but I feel that I was needed as much as anybody.””I think a show suffers when you make big changes and you lose the actors that caused the people to fall in love with it,” reports the Express.Fans may know him from the TV series Cimarron Strip(Image: Bettmann, Bettmann Archivevia Getty Images)In his youth, Boone was passionate about playing the guitar: “I’m going to take my guitar and I’m going to hitchhike around the country and have some fun until the Army drafts me and then I’ll let them beat some discipline into me. I couldn’t wait to get out of school and have a good time.”After spending 18 months travelling, he secured a deal with Universal Studios where he was initially cast as Vern Hodges, a folk-singing university student in a new programme called It’s a Man’s World. He remained under contract when the programme was axed after one series, so along with his horse Clyde he was recruited to join The Virginian’s cast.Randy often worked with his own pet horse on set(Image: Michael Ochs Archives, Getty Images)Boone revealed he would allow Universal to use his horse at no cost if he could stable him at the studio, and bosses accepted. The actor explained that he wrote many of the tracks he performed on the programme, stating he wanted to “feel like I’m putting something special into the work.”He signed away the rights to the songs but was amazed and thrilled to receive royalties years later. Randy departed from acting in the late 1980s and began to working in construction.Join the Daily Star’s WhatsApp for the sexiest headlines, showbiz gossip and lots moreThe Daily Star is now on WhatsApp and we want you to join us!Through the app, we’ll send you the sassiest showbiz stories, some naught headline and a seismic smattering of aliens…along with the latest breaking news of course.To join our community, all you have to do to join isclick on this link, select ‘Join Chat’ and you’re in!No one will be able to see who has sign up and no one can send messages except for the Daily Star team.

Peter Andre has seemingly made a dig at his ex-wife Katie Price as he opened up on parenting and the importance of talking to your children in his latest column07:51, 01 Sep 2025Peter Andre has made a statement about parenting(Image: Getty Images)Peter Andre has said parents “need to teach children how to swim” when it comes to raising them well. It comes after he became wrapped in a very public feud with ex-wife Katie Price, revealing the court arrangement they had in place over their kids.The ex-couple, who are parents to Princess and Junior, have been embroiled in bitter conflict over recent months following Katie’s allegations that Peter and his management team were preventing her from being involved in their daughter Princess’s professional opportunities, whilst also claiming the children resided at her property. Peter, 52, hit back with his own statement aimed at “setting the record straight”, in which he maintained that their children have been under his care since 2018.Writing in his regular New! Magazine column, Peter reflected on Stacey Dooley’s latest documentary featuring Lily Phillips – in which the adult performer’s parents were visibly distressed about her career path. Sharing his perspective on parenting and child-rearing methods, Peter wrote: “There’s been a lot of talk about Stacey Dooley’s documentary, Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over, with the adult content creator Lily Phillips, which included an emotional interview with Lily’s parents.”Peter was discussing the recent Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over documentary on Lily Phillips(Image: u.co.uk)He continued (as per the Mirror): “It’s easy to express an opinion about someone else’s behaviour, but if you don’t actually know that person or have any knowledge of their experiences or motivations, I think it’s difficult to judge. Being a parent isn’t easy. You can offer advice, but once your kids are adults, they make their own decisions.”Peter went on to say: “But it’s so important to talk to your kids, especially with the world as it is today. It’s no good building a pool and telling them not to jump in – you need to teach them to swim.”In addition to Princess and Junior, Peter is also a proud dad to three children with his wife Emily MacDonagh; Theo, Amelia and Arabella. Peter was hitched to telly icon Katie from 2005 until 2009, who recently made several allegations about him on her podcast, The Katie Price Show.However, in a surprising Instagram post that followed shortly after, Peter fired back: “For 16 years, I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silent has been incredibly frustrating. That ends today.”Peter has children Junior and Princess with ex-wife Katie Price(Image: FilmMagic)He continued: “The latest comments about my children’s welfare and living arrangements compel me to set the record straight. For well-documented reasons, and for their safety, Junior and Princess came into my care in 2018 and remained with me until they reached adulthood. In 2019, the family courts issued a legally binding order to enforce this arrangement. I have never made this public before, out of respect for my children.”He added: “In 2011 and 2015, publicly documented court cases, found my ex-wife had made false claims. She was ordered to pay substantial damages and legal costs, and to apologise, to me and my management. The same falsehoods are being repeated today.”Unfortunately, there are many more lies and baseless accusations I have yet to address. Those will now be dealt with in the coming months.”Article continues belowIn response, a representative for Katie told the Mirror: “Kate is in a much better and clear headspace and is at peace with the situation, this was in the past and she doesn’t feel the need to bring up tit for tat comments, but more importantly she’s dealing with this the right way and it’s now in her lawyers hands. Kate will no longer be gaslight [sic] and bullied as she once was.”Want all the biggest Showbiz and TV news straight to your inbox? Sign up for our free Daily Star Showbiz newsletter. More

Kelsey Bateman, who appeared on the final series of Rock of Love with Bret Michaels, has died at the age of 39. The cause of her death is not yet known06:33, 01 Sep 2025Updated 06:34, 01 Sep 2025The date and cause of death is unknownKelsey Bateman has passed away at the age of 39. The American reality television personality who rose to prominence on Bret Michaels’ Rock of Love has died “recently,” as officials struggle to figure out exactly when.Nevertheless, the cause of her death has yet to be revealed. Sources indicate that the 39 year old died “unexpectedly”. American media outlet TMZ reports that her cause of death remains unknown at this time.Kelsey was merely 21 when she featured in the final series of the television programme Rock of Love with Bret Michaels. In the show, she vied for Michael’s affections on the dating show.She died aged 39She made it to the final nine women but was harshly eliminated in the seventh episode, reports the Mirror.The programme, which broadcast between 2007 and 2009, followed 25 contestants as they battled to become Michael’s girlfriend. In episode seven, Kelsey became overly intoxicated alongside her co-stars, Farrah Sinclair and Ashley Klarich, and disclosed that she ended up weeping whilst on a speed bump.She said: “I ended up laying on a speed bump balling my eyes out but you know what? I’m here and I’m ready for whatever Brett has to say to me. But I mean, hey, I can’t be the only girl that’s got drunk and laid on a speed bump. Let’s be honest.”Bret subsequently told Kelsey that he didn’t believe that life on the road was the best place for her. He stated: “At some point I looked over during the concert and you were no longer there. And at some point you were laying on a speed bump talking saying you couldn’t handle this any longer. I think tonight the fact that you are needing to be who you are not, the fact you need to drink this much?”.”I think you’re awesome and a beautiful girl and I said sometimes I have to make decisions for people, and my decision for you is that I’m going to let your tour end here.”Kelsey, originally from Salt Lake City, admitted she had been “emotional.”She confessed: “Sometimes I get drunk and lay on speed bumps it’s just you know.”Apparently Brett just can’t handle a girl that likes to get drunk and lay on speed bumps. I mean maybe he’s not used to it. I’m going to go home and I’m going to be single I’m not going to think about guys for a while but the next guy I find definitely won’t be 44 and probably not a rock star.”OMG can’t believe it,” exclaimed one social media user. A second chimed in: “May she rest in peace.”While a third posted: “Oh wow! RIP,” alongside a praying hands emoji and a dove emoji.”God bless those that cared for her and the pain that follows that loss,” another added. After the programme aired, Kelsey took a step back from the limelight, but reports suggest that she kept in touch with her fellow co-stars and occasionally reunited with them in person.Article continues belowFor the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters.

Oasis never quite managed to crack the US market, with the British rock band’s albums and singles failing to top the charts – and it could all be down to one brutal insult04:58, 01 Sep 2025One insult could have held the band back in America(Image: Simon Ritter/Redferns via Getty Images)Liam Gallagher’s shocking jibe at America may have been the nail in the coffin for Oasis’ success in the US, preventing them from ruling the charts and airwaves.The British rock band never quite managed to replicate their UK success stateside. Some attribute this to cultural differences between America and the UK, as well as contrasting class perceptions, while others point to Oasis’ unsuccessful attempts to tour the country.As the band embarks on the North American leg of their Oasis Live ’25 Tour, fans, particularly those left awestruck by a phenomenal performance in Chicago on 29 August, are questioning why Oasis didn’t gain more traction in the States. However, one ill-judged remark could have scuppered their chances of cracking the US market.The band are off to America for their US leg of the reunion tour(Image: undefined via Getty Images)When the group announced the American dates for their reunion tour in 2024, they reignited memories of Oasis’ fraught relationship with America, issuing a stark warning: “America. You have one last chance to prove that you loved us all along.”After Oasis soared to fame with Definitely Maybe, the band eschewed radio promotions and attempts to curry favour with record executives, tactics deemed crucial in the American music industry. This wasn’t their style, and they had already publicly criticised the US, most notably at the MTV Awards when Liam spat onstage during Champagne Supernova, reports the Irish Star.Despite public opinion surrounding the decision, Liam was simply attempting to show America the authentic Oasis, explaining (per Far Out): “I went over there with a chip on my shoulder, but a good chip. I was like, ‘We’re going to f****** have you, and we’re going to do it our way. You won’t be moulding us to be one of your own.'”I wasn’t bothered whether we made it in the States. We would give it a good crack, but it would have to be on our terms. My main thing was to make an album and be great where I lived. In America, it was, ‘if it happens, it happens.'”During their commercial zenith, Oasis reigned supreme across the UK, Europe, and even throughout Latin America and Asia, yet they never cracked the US market. None of Oasis’ eight studio releases ever claimed the top spot on the Billboard 200.Liam said he went to America with a chip on his shoulder(Image: Getty Images)Their best performance came with 1997’s Be Here Now, which secured No. 2.Nevertheless, 1995’s (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? achieved 4 x Platinum status according to the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America). Examining the band’s chart singles, Wonderwall climbed to No.8 on the Billboard Hot 100, whilst the remainder failed to surpass Don’t Look Back In Anger’s No.55 position.Meanwhile, grunge titans Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, and Soundgarden ruled the charts. In 1992, Nirvana’s legendary Nevermind climbed from No.6 to No.1 on the Billboard 200.Pearl Jam’s Ten secured No. 2 on the Billboard 200 in August 1992, and Soundgarden’s 1994 release Superunknown launched straight to No.1 on the Billboard 200. In the same year, Oasis set off on their inaugural US tour, which included a notorious gig at LA’s Whisky A Go Go in 1994.As recounted in the 2016 documentary Supersonic, the band accidentally purchased crystal meth instead of cocaine, leading to an incident that Liam described as keeping them “just kept us up for f****** days.”Liam and Noel Gallagher have been branded ‘a**holes’ as music fans debate why Americans ‘didn’t get’ Oasis(Image: Getty Images)The brothers’ on-stage squabble led to Noel temporarily leaving the band and several shows being cancelled. Their misfortune in America persisted, with Liam going AWOL for a series of concerts in the US in 1996.Noel reflected in 2023 on the American music market’s reaction to their attitude, stating, “They couldn’t handle the fact that we didn’t give a f–k about anything,” adding, “That’s the reason we’ve never really had a number one album in America – they wouldn’t go the extra mile for us because we wouldn’t go the extra mile for them.”Article continues belowDespite their efforts to make headway in America, grunge remained dominant. Commenting on this struggle, Liam quipped, “They get a bright bunch like us, with deodorant on, they don’t get it.”However, fans who recently saw Oasis perform in Chicago – their first American show since 2008 – are surprised that the band didn’t achieve greater popularity during their heyday. The performance has received high praise from numerous fans, with many describing it as “electric.”For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters.

Presenter Olivia Attwood says there’s no place in the TV industry for big names who think they can do what they like – in the wake of a string of bullying scandals20:00, 31 Aug 2025Updated 20:57, 31 Aug 2025Olivia Attwood is warning it’s game over for TV stars who behave badly.(Image: Gareth Cattermole, Gareth Cattermole/Getty Images)Olivia Attwood is warning it’s game over for TV stars who behave badly. For years, studios have been plagued by seedy antics and bullying.But the presenter thinks that sort of thing is not being tolerated any more. Olivia says: “I think that the jig is really up for people that don’t behave well on set. There was a culture for a long time where that was tolerated. But I don’t think in this day and age and in this climate that we are putting up with as much of that, which I think is good.”Olivia is convinced there’s no excuse for inappropriate behaviour from any TV stars because it isn’t as tough as most industries. “Being in the entertainment is a f****** privilege of a job,” she adds.’I think that the jig is really up for people that don’t behave well on set’“We are not saving lives here. We are making telly. It should be fun. Let’s not take the fun out of it for everyone involved.” In recent months a raft of household names have been dropped over claims they misbehaved.Gregg Wallace and John Torode have both been axed from MasterChef while Gino D’Acampo has been sidelined by ITV. And Olivia is thrilled action is being taken.In fact, she’s trying to be part of the change herself by making sure there’s a nice atmosphere when she’s filming a show. “I always think of myself as someone that advocates for people,” she says.“I treat everyone the same whether they’re a runner or a commissioner. I think that everyone should be treated with respect. You have to have respect for every single person that goes into making a production. That’s just the way that I was brought up. You can’t teach people good manners. You’ve either got it or you haven’t.”While Olivia is pleased stars are being held to account, she does worry that the new culture has its downsides. The star is aware that she could get into trouble if she says or does the wrong thing.She’s issued an ominous warning(Image: Mancpicss66 / BACKGRID)In this day and age, one social media post or comment can spark a backlash on social media and end your career. She says: “It’s a really hard climate because we demand authenticity from celebrities, but at the same time people are really quick to tell you off.“I always try to be as unfiltered as I can while still using my brain not to say anything dumb that could offend someone. It’s a fine line. You have to be smart with it and read the room.”Olivia regularly gets tips from established presenters. They include Davina McCall, Holly Willoughby, Cat Deeley and Dermot O’Leary.The mentoring helps her navigate the industry. “There are so many presenters who have given me advice,” she says. “It’s a nice feeling. They’re genuinely happy for me. It’s been kind of surprising because you don’t always expect that from people.”Since finding fame on Love Island in 2017, Olivia has become one of ITV’s biggest stars. At first she did lots of reality shows including The Only Way Is Essex and I’m A Celebrity.(Image: Mancpicss66 / BACKGRID)But more recently she’s carved out a successful career as a presenter, with documentary series Getting Filthy Rich and The Price of Perfection. There’s also been her series Olivia Attwood’s Bad Boyfriends.That has been so successful that it’s returning for a second series on ITV2 this month. Despite all of that, she still doesn’t really think she’s famous.Article continues belowShe says: “When you leave Love Island, especially as we left at the height of series three, you get a crash course on dealing with the public. I can’t actually remember life before it. People say, ‘Being on TV must be really weird’. But I don’t feel like I notice that anymore.“Having said that, I still don’t think of myself as famous. Mariah Carey is famous. I am known in a certain group of people. If you live in the UK, you might know me. But my life is pretty normal.”For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletters. More
