Cyrus, 20, who wore Lil Kim-inspired costume that night, split with fiance Liam Hemsworth last month after the actor was said to be perturbed with the former teen star`s raunchy performance at MTV Music Video, reported Ace Showbiz.
"They seemed really into each other. Soon they were flirting and talking very closely. Then they shared a kiss. They left Bootsy Bellows together around 1 A.M. They tried to be discreet by sharing a car with some other friends but it was clear they were leaving as a couple," a source said.
The group was also joined by Kelly Osbourne and her fiance Matthew Mosshart.
"They were dancing and just really getting into the spirit of things. Kelly didn`t stay very long and so after catching up with Miley she left," the source added.
Kim K wanted to silence critics with swimsuit selfie
Washington: Kim Kardashian has confessed that she had shared her swimsuit picture on Instagram because she was determined to show the results of her post-baby slim down to silence her critics.
On `The Tonight Show` with Jay Leno, the 33-year-old reality TV star admitted that it was very hard to read stories about her weight-gain, which changed the way she was in public, even though she was only gaining weight because she was pregnant, Contactmusic reported.
The `Keeping Up with the Kardashians` star also claimed that she was just trying a bathing suit one day and sent a photo of it to her now-fiance, Kanye West and asked him if she could post this, as it would be a big "middle finger" to everyone who called her fat.
Kardashian said that she made sure to ask her then-boyfriend Kanye West for permission to upload the image before getting her revenge online.

Keanu Reeves rules out 'Matrix' sequel
Los Angeles: Actor Keanu Reeves says that another sequel to popular `The Matrix` franchise is not on cards for now.
Co-directed by Andy Wachowski and Lana Wachowski, the franchise had three editions, which started in 1999. Reeves played the lead role of Neo in the sci-fi thriller.
"I don`t believe there will be one. I don`t know what the Wachowskis are doing right now other than working on `Jupiter Ascending`. I don`t know if they`re thinking about another `Matrix`," eonline.com quoted Reeves as saying.
The 49-year-old accepts that his character became very famous.
"I thought the way Thomas Anderson/Neo went out was pretty spectacular," said Reeves.

Kim Kardashian's effortless post-pregnancy style
The 33-year-old socialite, who has a fourth-month-old daughter North with her fiance Kanye West, said she often opts for more comfortable clothing, reported Contactmusic.
"I would definitely say my style has changed since I`ve become a mother. At times you just want to be comfortable so I`m a little bit more effortless because I just don`t have time to get it all together.
"I`m wearing a softer colour palette now. It was all white and black outfits when I was pregnant. I still wear black but I mix it up," she said.
Apart from looking after her new born, Kardashian has also been busy working alongside her sisters Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian on a new 25-piece Kardashian
"I don`t think anyone in particular inspires us. Kourtney, Khloe and I get inspiration from each other and from all of our travels.
"I think it helps we have our own clothing store that we do the buying for so we get to meet tons of other designers. We order months in advance so we have the advantage that we can design cool, classic pieces and things we don`t see out there in the marketplace."
Happy to be in 'Bigg Boss' than it's British version: Sofia Hayat
New Delhi: British actress-singer Sofia Hayat, who has recently entered the `Bigg Boss-Saath 7` house, says that she is happy to be a part of the show here rather than its international leg, `Big Brother` in England."I am happy to be a part of the show here.

After only a week of newly-engaged bliss, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have found themselves in the middle of konflict and kontroversy once again. The couple are suing YouTube co-founder Chad Harley for violating a confidentiality agreement by posting a video of the biggest proposal of the year on his new website, MixBit.com, in a what they claim was a bid to gain attention and publicity for the business. According to the lawsuit, Harley wasn't even invited to attend the event, but instead tagged along with a friend who was. However, he was allowed to stay on the condition that he sign a confidentiality agreement stating that he wouldn't post pictures or videos of the proposal online. And because Kardashian and West take their privacy incredibly seriously, Harley was even photographed with the signed contract, and the photo is included in the lawsuit documents. However, a few days after the couple announced their engagement, Harley's grainy, 3-minute video surfaced online showing West's proposal and the ensuing celebration at AT&T Park in San Francisco. The suit also claims that Harley further violated the agreement by tweeting about the event to his more than 500,000 followers and that he even issued a press release alerting the media to his video. Kardashian and West are accusing Harley of "breach of written contract, fraud by way of false promise and unjust enrichment," and are asking for an unspecified amount in damages, and for any of the money that Harley has made off the video to be forfeited. The documents also mention that all of the rights to footage of the proposal and party belong to MC Cable Television — an arm of Bunim/Murray and E!, the companies that produce and air Keeping Up With the Kardashians. West apparently approved of the event being filmed for the show, and possibly aired in an upcoming episode.
Call us krazy, but we might actually be on Team Kimye in this showdown. Sure, it's a bit ridiculous to sue someone for filming something that you're only going to put on television anyway, and since neither Kardashian nor West have ever been particularly private about their lives before now, it's easy to make fun of them for suing over a broken confidentiality agreement. But if someone makes you take a photo with a contract you've signed, to prove that you've signed it, doesn't it seem like violating that contract immediately afterwards is a stupid decision? Surely Harley didn't think he was going to be able to sneak something past the one family in the world who have more cameras trained on them than the Obamas.
Maybe it is all just an elaborate plan to get people talking about MixBit. After all, was anybody even aware of the website before Kardashian and West filed their lawsuit? Perhaps Harley is just a firm believer in the idea that "there's no such thing as bad press." He might even be hoping that he'll be talked about on the next season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. If he's really lucky, maybe he'll get to appear on the show.
Whatever happens, we're sure that there will be plenty of cameras present to keep the world informed.
Lady Gaga, Josh Hutcherson, and 10 Other Surprising Stars Who Have Never Hosted 'SNL' Before
No, you didn't read that incorrectly — neither Lady Gaga or Josh Hutcherson has hosted Saturday Night Live before. However, things are about to change: according to Deadline, both Gaga and Hutcherson will take to the Studio 8H stage during November.

Gaga is set to host (and appear as the musical guest) on Nov. 16, which is five days after the release of her new album ARTPOP. As for Hutcherson, he will make his debut on Nov. 23 in an effort to promote The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, which hits theaters the night before, alongside the popular sister-band HAIM.
Upon hearing news that neither Gaga or Hutcherson has never played the part of host for the late-night show, we started thinking about which other big-name actors have yet to receive their comedy gold-star from Lorne Michaels.
Here are 10 actors who we're surprised have never hosted SNL before:
Leonardo DiCaprio
Leo — the boy who graced the bedroom walls of every high school girl after starring in Romeo + Juliet and Titanic in the early '90s — has never hosted SNL? Someone needs to fix that.
Kristen Bell
For someone who's been a part of the Hollywood scene for quite some time (and who seems to have such a strong sense of humor both on and off the screen), it's quite strange that she hasn't been invited to Studio 8H yet. But hopefully her upcoming Veronica Mars movie will give the SNL producers the right idea.
Aaron Paul
After watching Pauls' "E-Meth" commercial parodies, we have no qualms about his ability to host the entire show. Plus, without our weekly fix of Breaking Bad, we're desperate to see Paul on our TV sets again.
Peter Dinklage
Although Dinklage has graced the SNL stage with his presence during a cameo, we definitely think he deserves the whole 90 minutes. We want more Peter Drunklage!
Lena Dunham
Dunham is about to enter her third season of Girls and we haven't seen this funny lady take the stage? We're calling bulls**t. (We're just not-so-secretly hoping that we'll get to see another Girls parody.)
Sandra Bullock
Gravity might have just slipped around the corner after its stellar opening performance at the box-office, but that doesn't mean that Bullock can't head on over to SNL to have fun with some NASA sketches.
Nick Offerman
Offerman has already shown his comedic excellence on Parks and Recreations, and plus, we're pretty sure that NBC would love to have one of its own host the show. All we can say is that we hope he brings his wife Megan Mullally along for the ride.
Amanda Bynes
We're not saying that she should host anytime in the near future, but after years of starring in several of her own shows and movies, it seems like she's an untapped comedic treasure that SNL could have used to its benefit.
Ryan Gosling
Gosling might be more known for his recent dramatic roles, but that doesn't mean that he wouldn't be up for prancing around in silly costumes.
Michelle Obama
Kanye West might have some problems with our First Lady, but we have no issue with Mrs. Obama making us laugh. We already know she can mom dance with Jimmy Fallon, so why not move those shaking hips on over to SNL?
And just one more surprise never-hosted: Brad Pitt. Can you believe that? He's Brad Pitt, after all!

Making Sense Of The Love Triangles (And Quadrangles) on 'Revenge'
The third season of ABC’s Revenge is officially underway and there’s more hooking up going on than we know what to do with. Just like any good drama, romantic entanglements are a must. But the main character on Revenge – Emily Thorne (played by Emily VanCamp)— wears so many different faces it’s difficult to keep track of her true loves, her faux loves, and the guys she’s using for her own revenge-y purposes. But we’re here to help! Here are some of the love triangles (and quadrangles) that are making season 3 worth the watch. Emily and Jack/Emily and Aiden/Emily and Daniel:
See what we mean? Emily (AKA Amanda Clarke) started out the season making out with Jack (her childhood love who finally knows her true identity), but remains engaged to Daniel (although she’s still trying to take his entire family down), and in the most recent episode shared a passionate kiss with her ex-boo Aiden. How does she juggle all of it? Well, she doesn’t always do such a great job and jealousies abound in just about every episode. It doesn’t always make for a smooth revenge plan, but it definitely makes for good television. Plus all these guys are pretty hot, so there’s that to enjoy as well.
Jack and Margaux/Jack and Emily: This season we met Daniel’s old friend Margaux (played by Karine Vanasse), a beautiful French bombshell who runs her own magazine in the Hamptons. After a failed attempt to hook up with Emily’s fiancé Daniel, she ends up pulling Jack out of his shell. Jack has to be the cutest single dad/widower we’ve ever seen and Margaux? Well, she’s French! They make a great couple. but not everyone's into it. Emily’s own jealousy may start to get the best of her, as she still hasn’t resolved her feelings for her childhood sweetheart. And we can expect all of these emotions to complicate her plans to take down high society in the Hamptons.
Nolan and Patrick: There’s no real love triangle here, but some attention must be paid to Revenge favorite Nolan Ross (Gabriel Mann) and this season’s hottie newcomer Patrick (Justin Hartley). Nolan’s sexuality has never been clearly labeled and we’ve seen him date women and men throughout the show’s seasons. But the relationship between Patrick is especially complicated because -- like many of the relationships on Revenge -- it’s not quite clear yet whether or not the two are legitimately interested in each other, or using each other for their own personal agendas. Chances are, it’s a little bit of both. Which means we’ll all have to keep tuning in to see how all these little affairs continue to bring on the drama.

But now in a new twist, actors Armaan Kohli and Tanisha Mukherjee have also being rowing over Ajaz Khan. Ajaz has been flirting with everyone including the ‘Neal and Nikki’ actress. And while discussing the matter, Armaan lost his temper saying that she has not really been making any effort to avoid him. He told her to maintain some distance with Ajaz, and that the proximity is not good for her. This instigated Mukherjee who said “Just because I have night conversation and because I smile and laugh, doesn’t mean I’m interested in him (Ajaz).”
Later Armaan came and apologised to Tanisha, explaining that he said it only because he wasn’t thinking. He also said that Tanisha is not thinking and she does not understand the controversies that can be played up outside. But she told him that he hurt her really bad.
Well even though they have sorted it out. Even though it seems that one can spot a little bit of jealous green!

New Delhi: For the ones who admire him and love him, today will be no less than a celebratory occasion, as the Baadshah of Bollywood turns a year older. For Shah Rukh, the year 2013 has been a double whammy and has come along well both financially as well emotionally.His newborn son AbRam has made him realise the joys of being a father once again, while his money raking film, `Chennai Express` has sent across the message, loud and clear, that he is the real Box Office King.
For several ambitious men and women from all walks of life, Shah Rukh remains a example of grit, determination, immense success. Needless to say, the story of a young married Shah Rukh Khan from New Delhi to Bombay will continue to inspire many generations to come `Jab Tak Hai Jaan`.
‘Krrish 3’ review: Great effects, but too much emotional drama!

‘Krrish 3’ review: Great effects, but too much emotional drama!
If you were to study the comic book history, you would realise that superheroes are the born out of dire straits. The birth of the first superheroes came out of world economy sinking in the 1930s and the World War II. They formed a sort of escapist form of entertainment from the depressing times that people were living in. The last decade has seen the same upsurge in superhero movies coming to fore while the economy is again wavering and the world is in crisis. And this time India is included in the slump.Hrithik Roshan is perhaps the most apt choice if a super hero movie was to be made in India. And Rakesh Roshan didn’t need to make a choice. Hrithik looks ravishing, and really uber cool as the Indian version of a super hero. One who is suave, macho, dripping with strength and charisma and can give Supermans, Batmans and Ironmans of this world a run for their money. Senior Roshan however makes a big mistake with this franchise – he decides to give it a little too much archetypal Bollywood sugar coating.
In the third edition of the saga, ‘Krissh 3’ attempts to break the technological barriers that our movie industry faced with large scale action sequences. ‘Krrish 3’ has all the elements of an entertainer and a lot of potential to have given some serious competition to Hollywood flicks. One can’t really complain about a somewhat predictable plot (after all superhero movies are supposed to be about the triumph of good over evil).
However, it is interspersed with some highly filmy and done to death dialogues. “Krrish ek soch hain jise koi kaal nahi maar sakta,” says Priyanka Chopra just before the final action sequence. It doesn’t end there. There are many more that can eat up your brains. And then there are some small and some gaping loopholes and unfortunately insane amounts of product placements dotted throughout the script.
If you learn to ignore them, then you might have a chance to enjoy the movie. Kangana Ranaut as Kaya has an intricate character which she plays off with ease, without overdoing it. ‘Kaal’ played by Viveik Oberoi could have been more sinister, his superpowers are a weird mix between Professor Charles X Xavier and Magneto from the ‘X- Men’ series. Many of the other villain sidekicks are also ‘X Men’ inspired. Viveik does the best he can, but the subtlety and the panache that other villains exude is not something he can match with only cheesy dialogues. He doesn’t come close to even Shakaal (Kulbhushan Kharbanda) from Ramesh Sippy’s ‘Shaan’.
It’s an out and out Hrithik movie. He looks good in a costume (however cheap the fabric may look). He also makes the action and the fights look natural. He may not be the most gifted actor but he pulls off both Rohit and Krishna well. Priyanka Chopra looks pretty as the ‘wife’ and doesn’t have much to do. Kangana easily overshadows Chopra with a more crucial part to play in the movie.
The background score by Salim and Suleiman is good and follows the moods well, but the soundtracks by Rajesh Roshan are seriously ignorable.
‘Krrish 3’ borrows heavily from all the Hollywood superhero flicks ever made. But, what work for the movie are the CGI effects and the action sequences and a somewhat interesting albeit predictable plot. More importantly Rakesh Roshan encashes on the lack of any competition from any other movie maker to come up with a more commendable actor who can be as easily identified as Krrish as Hrithik can.
What absolutely fails are the badly written dialogues, usage of Bollywood clichés, the stupidly obvious adverts, bad musical scores and not giving a good character build to Kaal, even though it would have been a formidable watch if at least this could have been done.
Want to watch Krrish? Go ahead if you love Bollywood in all its corny finery. If you are a comic book buff and have watched all that Hollywood has had to offer, you may like to steer clear.
