DESPITE years as one of the most famous party boys in London and New York, don’t expect to see Mark Ronson hitting it hard for his 50th.
The Uptown Funk hitmaker is celebrating the landmark birthday today but is opting for a low-key family occasion instead of a blow-out bash.
Mark, who is gearing up to release his book Night People on September 16, explained: “I feel like because my whole life has been a party, not necessarily a party for me, but DJing a party for others and being in the party and all that s***, I have no desire to.
“Everybody’s like, ‘You’ve gotta do something big!’
“And my 40th, I kind of went all out.
“I had this big party with 60 friends or maybe more in the countryside.
“We all got on a tour bus and I DJ’d at Festival No6 in Wales.
“And then it was just three days of partying.”
But things are different for Mark these days, after he settled down and became a dad to two daughters.
He added: “Now I have absolutely no desire to do that.
“I just want to be with my family.”

Hailey has just signed a fresh deal with fashion house DKNY to be the face of its new autumn campaign alongside Candice Swanepoel.
She said: “DKNY channels everything I love about New York: It’s energized, unique and full of inspiration.
“There is a balance of structure and ease that makes everything so wearable.
“I gravitate towards elevated classics that I can throw on but still feel intentional.”
I gravitate towards anything in the washing pile that looks clean and not too creased.

ILL CELINE SCRAPPED EURO GIG
CELINE DION was forced to cancel her appearance during the final of this year’s Eurovision Song Contest in Switzerland after struggling with her health.
The My Heart Will Go On singer had kept the surprise appearance under wraps.
But it ended up being one of music’s worst-kept secrets, with Eurovision presenter Graham Norton referencing a possible appearance live on air.
Celine, who has stiff person syndrome, had been due to perform Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi, the song she won the competition with for Switzerland in 1988.
French newspaper Le Parisien has now claimed Celine was in Basel for the event but suffered a medical episode and was forced to cancel her performance.
The revelation comes after her Prime Video documentary last year, in which she talked about living with stiff person syndrome, which is a neurological disorder that causes muscle stiffness and cramps.
She was diagnosed with the rare disease in 2022 and has shared her experience to raise awareness.
Celine said: “I barely could walk at one point and I was missing very much living.
“My kids started to notice.
“I was like, ‘OK, they already lost a parent. I don’t want them to be scared’.
“I let them know, ‘You lost your dad, but Mum has a condition and it’s different. I’m not going to die. It’s something that I’m going to learn to live with.’”
Celine, you are a warrior.
