'I fear dying alone': Jack Nicholson says his reputation as a philanderer means women don't trust him anymore

He once said he used to feel irresistible to women - and his impressive list of lovers suggests he had a point.

But Jack Nicholson admits he fears dying alone because he can no longer captivate the ladies like he did in younger years.

The 77-year-old says women do not trust him anymore thanks to his reputation as 'Jack the Jumper' - a reference to his well-known philandering.  

In comments published by U.S. magazine Closer, he said he would love 'one last romance' but said he was 'not very realistic' about that happening.

He said he didn't believe that relationships are 'fixed things' because humans are 'necessarily complex and confused beings'.

He added: 'We don't always do the right thing, say the right thing and behave the way we always want to behave.'

Jackie Chan's son Jaycee sentenced to six months in Chinese jail after admitting drug offences

The son of actor Jackie Chan has been sentenced to six months in jail after pleading guilty in a Beijing court to providing a venue for drug users.

Police seized more than 100 grams of marijuana during an August raid at Jaycee Chan's Beijing home. Both Chan and Taiwanese movie star Ko Kai tested positive for the drug, it was reported. 

His imprisonment comes amid a major crackdown on illegal drugs in China, and is particularly embarrassing for his movie star father, who in 2009 was named an anti-drug ambassador.

What about these 'classy' first daughter moments? Critics hit back at GOP staffer who criticized Sasha and Malia with unflattering photos of Jenna Bush

Twitter users have hit back at the GOP staffer who called Malia and Sasha Obama classless - by reminding her of Jenna Bush's more unseemly moments while her father was in office.

Elizabeth Lauten, communications director for Rep Stephen Fincher, issued a groveling apology on Friday after slamming the President's girls, aged 16 and 13, for wearing casual clothing and looking sullen during the Thanksgiving address.

Calling for the self-professed media expert to be sacked, thousands of people responded by tweeting the renowned picture of George W Bush's daughter Jenna drunkenly tumbling over her friend on to the floor of a frat party, cigarette in hand.

The 2001 photo, which earned the then 19-year-old the nickname Jenna And Tonic, has gone viral with the hash tag '#classy'.

Madonna has been accused of 'betraying' the family of her adopted daughter Mercy - as they issued a desperate plea to be allowed to see her.

The grandparents of Mercy James have accused the star of cutting them out of her life and failing to meet a promise to keep her close to her roots. They also attacked 'white foreigners' for taking children away from Africa.

Saxon Maunde, grandfather of Mercy James who was adopted by Madonna in 2009, told MailOnline: 'Nobody has told me a thing about Mercy being in the country or about her welfare since she left us.

'She has my blood flowing in her veins. It is preposterous that I am not made aware of anything regarding her development.' 

The 69-year-old, who ekes out a living selling pots from a roadside stall, added that Madonna had, 'broken my heart and hearts of my family members,' saying that, 'she has shown no humanity at all towards us.'
