Sky News gossip guru Neil Sean delivers the latest showbiz news:

:: Justin Timberlake seems to delight in upsetting the ladies.

180 eminem 8 mile

Eminem

First there was the dumped duet with Mariah Carey that he refused to release. A planned song with ex-girlfriend Britney Spears went the same way.

And then there was boob-baring Janet Jackson who also fell victim to his non-release schedule.

Now though it's our own delightful urban star Ms Dynamite - who has a groaning shelf of every award possible.

She's currently recording her next album and had been hoping that Justin - as promised - would agree to a duet on it.

Guess what? She can join the line along with all the others as he recently told her he was "too busy".

:: Hugh Jackman is the hottest star on Broadway right now with his hit musical The Boy From Oz.

The Van Helsing star plays famous gay entertainer Peter Allen - one of Liza Minnelli's ex-husbands.

The show has broken box office records despite some really bad reviews when it opened over a year ago.

Now though, things have turned around and a Tony Award for the show is looming. Hugh has also told theatre bosses to take the show to the London stage.

They agreed - and we can look forward to this delight at some point next year.

:: After the success of his debut movie 8 Mile, what's next from Eminem?

Despite his claim that he did not enjoy acting in front of the camera, the rapper is keen to get his own musical onto the silver screen.

He has a deal with Universal to develop his first rap musical, which is set in the 1930s. Em and his posse will play gangsters of the period.

This movie looks set to prove Eminem truly is a multi-talented entertainer.

Also, look out soon for a children's book from him!

:: Robbie Williams is a man who's reached a crossroads in his career.

The singer is finally about to get the recognition he deserves from the US.

His cameo in the new Kevin Kline movie De-lovely was met with rapturous delight when shown at Cannes last week.

This has inspired Robbie to make way for another swing album.

He said: "I plan to cover a whole range of songs that I have been thrilled to sing for many years.

"Swing When You're Winning was a great risk, but I feel that fans like to expect the unexpected from me."

:: Vinnie Jones' reality TV show bombed over here, but he's trying to make it a hit in the States.

You may recall the late night show Meet The Joneses.

A source told me: "Vinnie is far more respected as an all rounder there and his US fans are happy for the chance to see their hero in a more personal setting."

The episodes - 20 in all - will get a prime time slot.

And as an added bonus, Vinnie's been offered a role in a top Broadway production.
