Simon Cowell pulls a sickie!

Pulling a sickie in an office environment seems pretty standard, but what about if you are a celebrity with a full schedule for the day? Well, music mogul Simon Cowell had his first ever day off down to flu. Simon was meant to be at the Britain’s Got Talent auditions in Birmingham, but instead had to get his old mate Louis Walsh to step in for him. Fellow judge Amanda Holden admitted that she was glad Simon wasn’t in so she could mess around like a naughty school girl.

Wonder if he will spend the day sat on the sofa, watching Jeremy Kyle with a Lemsip like the rest of us?

Katie Price and Alex Reid – Married!

There has been rumors flying around for a couple of weeks now that whilst in Vegas, Katie Price and Alex Reid were to wed….and it seems they are true! Yes, the celebrity couple have tied the knot!

I’m not being funny, but what the hell are they doing? It wasn’t long ago that Katie dumped Alex live on TV, now they are getting married?! According to a statement made by Katie’s agent, none of this was done for any kind of media deal…hmmm, YEH RIGHT!!

“Katie and Alex are delighted to announce they got married in a private, simple ceremony. Their decision to marry has not been made with any media deal in place. It is purely down to their love for each other”

The trashy wedding, which lasted a total of 22 minutes, took place at the Chapel of Wynn Hotel. Hope they didn’t turn up in the same dress, that would be embarrassing wouldn’t it!

The TV crew from Katie’s ITV show were in attendance, after all, she can’t do anything without the cameras in her face can she. Apparently £1million is what the couple have been offered for exclusive rights to the pictures…..but they aren’t doing it for the money are they….no, course not!

Farewell Celebrity Big Brother!

So folks, that’s it! Celebrity Big Brother is now finished, ended, done, complete! You could tell it was the last ever show though couldn’t you, I mean they really scraped the barrel with the contestants this year. Two people that have shagged Jordan, an ex prostitute, a second division WAG and some kid that’s claim to fame is going out with Ronnie Wood!

Alex Reid was the “Celebrity” who came up top, beating Vinnie Jones and Dane Bowers to first place. No offense to the guy, but he is an attention seeking minger who is only famous because of his girlfriend, and to be honest, doesn’t have one brain cell in that battered head of his. To be fair though, the fake tan incident and his weird relationship with Jonas did make good viewing.

In my opinion, Stephanie should have been the winner. She was fun to watch, wasn’t scared of an argument and tried her very best to fit in, especially trying to copy Sisqo’s lingo!

Did you have a favorite? If so, who?

Coronation Street moves to a Thursday night

I absolutely love my soaps, especially on a Monday when I can watch Coronation Street then Eastenders then Coronation Street again, I’m in my element.

The show has been broadcasted on a Wednesday night for the past 50 years but today, bossess at ITV has announced that Thursday is the new soap night. The good part is, we wont have the football disrupting out programmes anymore. The bad part is we will have to reset our Sky + and make sure we cancel all our plans for Thursday nights in the future!!

Corrie will not be showing at 8.30pm so wont clash with Eastenders.

Are you happy with the switch? Or did you like sitting down with a cuppa on Wednesdays?

Michael Jackson Memorial Concert

OMG!! Did you watch the Michael Jackson memorial concert last night? I couldn’t hold back the tears, especially when I saw his brothers crying and even more so when Paris made an emotional speech about her father.

The concert saw the likes of Mariah Carey, Usher, Stevie Wonder and Lionel Ritchie take to the stage to blast out timeless Jacko hits, with Britain’s very own Shaheen Jafargholi stealing the limelight with “Who’s Lovin You”.

All the Jackson clan were in attendance  including all 3 of Michael’s children, who up until then had not been put in the media spotlight.

If you didn’t get to see the speech that Paris made, take a look at it here..

Kerry Katona appears on GMTV again!

Remember that Kerry Katona interview on GMTV where Kerry appeared drunk, slurring her words for all the world to see? Well, after saying she wouldn’t appear on the sofa again, she has!

She didn’t have to face Philip and Fern this time though, instead she discussed her show Kerry Katona: What’s the problem? with Andrew Castle. Kerry admitted to Andrew that she had avoided taking her medication before the interview so that she didn’t slur her words and could not get accused of being drunk again.

Kerry made sure that she had a little dig at Fern and Phil though, saying:

“What annoyed me about it was they never approached me and asked what medication I was on. They just said to me, ‘Have you been drinking?’, It still upsets me now, I was nationally embarrassed because of medication and illness.”

I really don’t think she is going to let the whole thing drop is she?!

Does Britain actually have any talent?

Have you been watching Britain’s Got Talent?? If so, what do you think of the acts that have gone through to the final so far?

The first acts that went through were Susan “over rated” Boyle and dance act Diversity. I definitely think that Diversity deserved to go through but I just don’t see what all the fuss is about over Boyle? I mean yeah, she can hold a note but she didn’t blow me away, she was just average. I definitely thought she was better in her first audition too!

The next acts to make it through were Flawless and Shaun Smith. I thought Flawless were brilliant, much better than Diversity. They were in sync with each other and did some great moves. Shaun Smith was good, but he could have just been on a Karaoke machine down the local pub.

The final two who made it through to the semi finals were Shaheen Jafargholi and Stavros Flatley.  Shaheen does have a great voice but what the hell are Stavros Flatley?! Some fat kid and his dad pissing about on the stage with their man boobs in full view? I can’t imagine that it’s something that will entertain the queen but I suppose I would rather they got through than Susan Boyle.

To be honest, none of the acts have been amazing. My vote definitely goes to Flawless so far. How about yours?

Eurovision Song Contest 2009

Did you stay in on Saturday night to watch the Eurovision? I did, I also demolished a huge bag of Doritos, a share size Dairy Milk and a bag of soft licorice. Put it this way, I couldn’t move off the sofa for the rest of the night.

So, what did you think of Jade?! I thought she did a fantastic job, even after she got fit in the face by someone on the violin! Coming 5th is a great achievement, especially after getting nil points last time. Do you think Andrew Lloyd Webber helped us gain more points, seen as though he is known all over Europe?

The winners were Norway, I hope that they had fire sprinkler systems in place as they were on fire, getting a record breaking score of 387. Coming in second was Iceland with 218 points and Azerbaijan took third place with 207 points.

In my opinion, I didn’t think Norway had a very good song and I don’t know how anyone can call that guy cute, he had the biggest nostrils going and caterpillars for eyebrows. I was also amazed that Azerbaijan made it to third place, the waiter lookalike and his slaggy, oddly dressed bit on the side really didn’t do anything for me!

Who did you want to win the Eurovision Song Contest 2009?

Susan Boyle takes over the world!!

You may have heard the name Susan Boyle on the TV, on the radio and in magazines. Susan has taken over the news and her audition on Britain’s Got Talent has seen 18.5 million hits, it may even become the most watched video on YouTube EVER!!!

Before auditioning for the show, 48 year old Susan was used to singing into her bathroom mirror with a hairbrush but has since become a global superstar. The never yet been kissed sensation has already been interviewed in America and Australia, it seems like the world are going mad for a bit of the Boyle!

I didn’t get to watch the show the night Susan performed so i added to the number of views on YouTube instead. Fair enough the lady has a good voice, but i didn’t fall off my chair in amazement. Are people obsessed with her because they of the way she looks and they were shocked that she could even hold a note? Or am i missing something and she does in fact have the voice of star?

What is your opinion on Susan? Do you think she should be the lucky one to perform in front of royalty? Let me know!

Is Fearne Cotton a role model for anorexics?

Fearne Cotton is currently presenting the TV documentary ‘The Truth About Online Anorexia’ and has been lest horrified to see pictures of herself pop up on a pro-anorexia website.

When Fearne saw the pictures she was obviously upset that they were on the website and shouted:

“What the hell’s my name doing there? That’s the worst thing I’ve ever seen! I wish I could take myself off this website. I don’t want to be associated with anything like this.”

According to Fearne, the pictures were taken a few years ago when she was younger and slightly thinner.

Apparently the website has a section which offers tips on extreme dieting and also provides a gallery of thin celebs for “thinspiration”.

Although i do think people look so much better slimmer, i really don’t like seeing pictures of someone suffering from Anorexia. Celebrities likes Paris Hilton, Nicole Ritchie, Lindsay Lohan and Victoria Beckham have always been the centre of conversation when skinny celebrities are mentioned and have been accused of being the cause of some of the public’s anorexia problems.

What do you think of these skinny celebrities?
