Jolie Says People Fleeing Libya Need Support

Actress and goodwill ambassador Angelina Jolie appealed on Tuesday for international support for people fleeing the conflict in Libya and for increased aid for those inside the country.

Jolie, a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations' refugee agency UNHCR who visited the Libyan-Tunisian border, said recent arrivals from Libya had told her about heavy fighting, harassment and assaults.

More than 400,000 people have fled Libya to Tunisia, Egypt, Niger, Algeria, Chad and Sudan since February when rebels rose up against Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi. More than half have arrived in Tunisia.

"The international community has done well to reinforce Tunisia's remarkable relief effort," Jolie said in a UNHCR statement. "But with 2,000 people still crossing each day, we cannot let the funding dry up and need to sustain the momentum."

Lady Gaga Lead MTV's Newly Inaugurated O Music

Lady Gaga and Tyler the Creator lead MTV's newly inaugurated O Music Awards with three nominations each.

MTV announced Tuesday the categories and nominees for its new Web-based awards show, a celebration of digital music. Categories include best fan cover, most viral dance and best music hashtag meme.

Lady Gaga and rapper Tyler the Creator are among the nominees for most innovative artist and must-follow artist on Twitter. Lady Gaga is also nominated for favorite animated GIF, a kind of avatar. Tyler the Creator, of the much buzzed-about hip-hop group Odd Future, is also nominated for his remix of Lykke Li's "Follow Rivers."

Winners will be decided by fan voting in social media, with the results shown in real-time. The awards will be presented in a live hour-long webcast April 28 on MTV websites and mobile apps.

AMANDA Holden puts on a brave face for Mother's Day

The Britain's Got Talent judge wore a figure-hugging white dress yesterday for extra auditions of the talent show. Bosses arranged the sessions for wannabes who had uploaded clips of their acts on YouTube.

It also meant scenes of Amanda not looking pregnant could be shot. She lost her baby boy at seven months in February. Despite the tragedy, she appeared keen to work yesterday - after earlier spending time with five-year-old daughter Lexi.
