Golden Camera Award Given to Michael J. Fox


Michael J. Fox was honored by the German show business industry over the weekend, receiving the prestigious Golden Camera award for lifetime achievement, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Danny DeVito, also a Golden Camera recipient, presented Fox with the award.

DeVito lauded Fox for his dedication to the fight against Parkinson's disease, a illness that has afflicted the actor for 20 years.

“It was such a shock to hear he had Parkinson’s,” DeVito said, according to the report. “It would have devastated most people but he took it as a challenge and approached it with the enthusiasm and passion of a great actor.”

Katy Perry: 'I Was Shaped Like a Square'


She may be known for her curvy physique now, but Katy Perry wasn't always so hot. "I was shaped like a square at one time," she reveals in the new issue of Elle. "I was! I'm generally around 130 pounds, which is totally fine for me. But when I was a kid, I was the same height and weighed more like 145. All I wanted was to look like Kate Moss. Little did I know ... that these things would come in handy someday."

That's putting it mildly! Katy makes the most of her shapely status these days in videos like "California Gurls" and "Teenage Dream," and she makes no apologies for it. "We're past that. I'm a sexy girl, so what? I never claimed I was a nun!"
