The genie’s out of the bottle: Christina Aguilera’s
ego, that is. The singer’s diva demands have made
her the subject of loose talk behind the scenes at
Disney, which is in discussions with her to work
on the soundtrack for the live-action remake of
Mulan. “They want Christina on board to a point,
but she’s expecting a seven-figure paycheck for
doing very little — and they expect her to work
for it,” says a source. Disney wants at least one
new original song from Christina, the source
adds, but the singer is “dragging her feet big time.
She thinks that, as one of the company’s most
famous former child stars, she’s in the driver’s seat
here – but she couldn’t be more wrong.” Disney’s
talking to the former Voice coach out of respect
for tradition — it’s not a done deal. “Christina is
way too big for her boots, and once you think
you’re bigger than Disney, you’re in trouble.” ★

We’ll never be royals — and Sarah Ferguson won’t be one again either if
Camilla Parker Bowles has anything to say about it. “Fergie is all but back
with Prince Andrew,” says a source. “But she’s waiting on Prince Charles’
approval for it all to go public.” As the future king, he has a say. But it’s
not Charles who’s stonewalling them, it’s Camilla! “There’s no love lost
between the women, especially because Fergie was so firmly team Diana.
Camilla uses every opportunity she can find to prove Fergie shouldn’t
be welcomed back,” says the source. The latest? The former Duchess’
ostentatious spending habit at restaurants, which has hit the press in
England. Camilla believes royals should be more frugal in these tough
times, “something Fergie doesn’t trouble herself with,” adds the source. ★

It’s all about the talent — at least ahead of the Primetime Emmys
next month. HBO is reportedly sparing no expense to keep Barry star
Bill Hader happy following the recent breakup of his marriage and
leading into awards night. “HBO is very sensitive about Bill’s well-being
and they’re doing everything they can to make sure he’s not getting
overextended.” That translates into lots of perks, including a 24-hour
driver and assistant on call, says the source. “They don’t want him
stressing out in L.A. traffic or worried about little things like getting
his own groceries. He’s running his own business from the backseat of a
blacked-out SUV and being shuttled around by underlings.” We’ll tune
in to see if the royal treatment pays off with a statuette... ★
