Pop star Jesse McCartney has found himself on the other side of a buzzing rumor after a U.S. reality TV star claimed he proposed to her friend on her MySpace.com page. McCartney upset Jennifer Lopez last year when he let it slip that the singer/actress had pulled out of the Dallas movie because she was pregnant.

Olivia Newton-John has dismissed rumors she is to reunite with Grease co-star John Travolta for the upcoming Dallas movie. Earlier this month Travolta, who played her hunky love interest Danny Zuko in Grease, tipped her as a "great" screen sister-in-law to his J.R. Ewing in the film adaptation.

John Travolta's wife Kelly Preston is reportedly set to join her husband in the movie remake of eighties soap opera Dallas. Travolta is said to have asked Preston to take on the part of Sue Ellen, long-suffering wife of his character J.R. Ewing, since Jennifer Lopez ditched the role last year.

Actress Katie Cassidy was left red-faced when she auditioned for the role of Lucy Ewing in the upcoming Dallas movie - because she dressed for the part. The pretty blonde daughter of pop icon David Cassidy felt she'd have the best chance of landing the dream role if she showed director Gurinder Chadha what she'd look like as busty Ewing - but she just found her efforts hilarious.

The big-screen remake of hit 1970s TV show Dallas is in more jeopardy after losing most of its cast and the original screenplay. When the film was first announced stars like Jennifer Lopez, John Travolta, Luke Wilson and Shirley MaClaine were reportedly on board, but now only Travolta remains attached.

The entire cast of the feature film Dallas, with the exception of John Travolta, has been sacked just one month before the movie was to begin shooting. The big-screen version of the popular 1970s TV show was set to start in November but has now been put on hold as the film is reworked.

Jessica Simpson was mortified when she screen tested for two parts in the big screen re-make of the classic TV show Dallas and didn't get either one of them. Media reports claimed the star was in line to land the role of sexy Lucy Ewing, but the star failed to impress filmmakers with her acting skills.

Jesse McCartney was stunned by the reaction to comments he made on a radio station about Jennifer Lopez's alleged pregnancy, insisting he was careless and naive at the time. McCartney caused huge controversy by claiming on Georgia's Star 94 FM that Lopez pulled out of the upcoming film version of Eighties TV show Dallas because she is expecting a child.

Red-faced pop star Jesse McCartney has apologized for speaking out about Jennifer Lopez's apparent pregnancy on a radio show, insisting he has no "first hand information". On Thursday the teenager told Star 94 FM in Atlanta, Georgia that Lopez had quit the movie adaptation of 1980s soap Dallas due to the fact she was with child.
