Aguilera ready to meet estranged father

Christina Aguilera thinks it is “time” to meet her estranged father. The Beautiful hitmaker has been open about her strained relationship with her father Fausto, who she has previously said was physically and emotionally abusive, but thinks she is now ready to face the past.
Christina, who last saw her father in 1999, said, “I’ve talked about how rough things were for me and I’m sure he’s heard it. He can’t be thrilled about it. So maybe one day we can do lunch. I’m 31 years old now. Maybe it’s time.”
Christina married Jordan Bratman, with who she has four-year-old son Max, in November 2005 but they split just under five years later, though the singer insists she wasn’t too young to settle down when she did. She told the new issue of Latina magazine, “Was I too young? Not at all. I did the exact right thing at the time. I definitely wasn’t too young. I have always been older than my age.” The blonde star, who shot to fame as a member of the All New Mickey Mouse Club aged just 13, also admitted she was shocked when she realised she was no longer one of the younger people in the showbiz industry.

Arterton feels she has a guardian angel
Gemma Arterton believes she has her own guardian angel. The 26-year-old actress’ mother Sally-Anne told her when she was a child that if you see a white feather it means there is an angel on your shoulder helping you, and Gemma is convinced her late grandmother is protecting her in her life.
In an interview with Vogue magazine, she said, “My mum is very psychic and believes in angels. I suppose it sounds quite twee when you describe it that way. I have these feathers that follow me everywhere. My mum told me that whenever there’s a white feather, it’s your guardian angel. I think my guardian angel is my nan. When I arrived in Germany (to film Hansel and Gretel), I opened my suitcase and there was this big white feather on top. And I thought, ‘How did that get there?’ This happens a lot.”
