Ilfracombe’s Floating Sperm Presents The World’s Worst Corporate Logos

The log also reminds them to wear something protective and shower after bathing. Incidentally, Ilfracombe has the country’s second highest rate for teenage pregnancies - so it might be an advert for new sperm donors.

KATIE Price And Peter Andre Remarriage Watch: Katie aplogises for being a bitch, Peter Andre sues Katie for her “lies”, Katie rows with Alex Reid and hits a photographer…
Anorak’s Katie Price and Peter Andre news round-up.
The Sun (front page): “JORDAN BEGS PETER: Take me back.”
Married by Christmas? Who wants to take the bet?
JORDAN has made an emotional phone call to ex-hubby Peter Andre, begging him: “Please take me back,” The Sun can reveal. She apologised for being a “bitch” to him and pleaded for a reunion, saying: “I messed up.” A friend of Peter said: “She said she was sorry for being such a bitch to him.”
“She asked him straight out if there was any chance they could get back together and pleaded for a reunion. She was telling him she just couldn’t stop thinking of him and their life together.”
Peter Andre has his apology, says Peter Andre’s friend. Which means Peter Andre can remain dignified and the tabloids’ pet couple can be reunited on the telly or in OK!.

Amazon Eve: World’s Tallest Glamour Model In Pictures
MEET tall glamour model Amazon Eve. She’s 6ft 8inches tall.she is 30 years old. Amazon Eve might not be her real name, but if it is, it is a fine nominative determinism in action.
Our Man in LA tells us:
Something else to be thankful for on this holiday… that you’re not a 6-foot-8-inch swimsuit model named “Amazon Eve.” Just a little about Eve: She’s 30 years old and hails from Redondo Beach, California. She recently burst onto the Australian modeling scene with a spread in a magazine called “Zoo Weekly.” Pictures:

Madeleine McCann: The Media Creates A New Maddie Monster And Twists The Facts
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann: Madeleine McCann is still making news. No, the not because she has been found or that anyone is investigating her disappearance, but because ‘Maddie Fruadster‘ Kevin Halligen has been nicked.
It’s news on Page 11 of the Daily Express: “Madeleine ‘detective’ fraud case.” Halligen ran a firm that was hired to look for Our Maddie. But the alleged fraud has nothing to do with the monies he earned for that job. This is a “£1.2 million fraud in the US”. Earlier it was a “£1.3milion” fraud .
Such are the facts - and the shifting exchange rates.
The Sun, meanwhile, searches for a link between Halligen’s alleged fraud and Madeleine McCann. How can we turn Halligen into a figure of hate? The paper screams:
“Maddie rat tried to sue fund for £150k’
Conniving Halligen was sacked by the charity - which had already paid him £300,000 - after bosses began to suspect he was a conman. But he then had the nerve to threaten to sue for half as much money again, claiming he was still owed it as part of a three-phase contract. A source close to the fund said: “There were a series of letters between our solicitors and his.
“He said he was going to sue us for what he claimed he was still owed and our message was basically, ‘See you in court’.”

Peter Andre ‘Begs’ Katie Price To Come Home
KATIE Price and Peter Andre: Katie is out of the jungle and the talk is of she and Peter Andre getting back together. Or is it?
The Daily Mirror’s front page leads with “The Fall Of the Jordan Empire”
This news follows yesterday’s comment by Sue Carroll - “Everybody’s favourite columnist” - in which the voice of the paper told Mirror readers:
“So before Miss Price, Jordan, Katie or whatever she wants to call herself suffers any more sad delusions it should be made clear that the majority of the British people do not give a kangaroo’s testes about her.”
Happily, the Daily Mirror is not in the majority – it just thinks it is - and its readers just love Katie, which is why Katie/Jordan/Kate/Pricey is slapped on the front page…again.
While the Mirror holds up a huge full colour photo of Katie Price and says how she is old news, the Daily Star at least tries to crete new news with its front-page scremer:
Pete begs Kate come home now

Pictures Of Claudia Schiffer, Eva Herzigova And Helena Christensen Artfully Naked For i-D
IN i-D Magazine, Claudia Schiffer, 29, Eva Herzigova, 36, and Helena Christensen, 40, pose in artfully naked photos.
The images are showcased in the Daily Mail, where Chris Johnson offered:
Together they have an average age of 38, but these three supermodel veterans show they certainly haven’t lost their sparkle. Eva Herzigova, 36, Helena Christensen, 40, and Claudia Schiffer, 39, wore just leather thigh boots as they gave a cheeky wink for a magazine shoot.
In other Daily Mail news:
Then there’s this season’s thigh-grazing boots. At 37, am I too old for them? I don’t think age comes into it. Madonna (50+) road-tested them in May, and I’m sure Amazonian L’Wren Scott (40+) would look terrific in a pair.
Madonna, you say, Daily Mail readers? Oh, her:
But despite her gym-honed body, and trend-setting reputation, the queen of pop was mutton dressed as lamb in a gothic-style lace skirt teamed with leather jacket and thigh-high boots.

X Factor: Hairy Jordans Jedward To Star On I’m A Celebrity And Coronation Street
WHEN Jedward left the X Factor on the same night Katie Price quit the I’m A Celebrity jungle, we knew there would be no shortage of tabloid exclusives.
Today the Sun accompanies its front–page news that Katie Price has dumped Alex Reid, with the story:
NOW BOSSES WANT JEDWARD FOR JUNGLE
Exile? Well, Australian deserves it, we suppose. Give them a pair of Stubbies, a vest, a can of amber ambition and their li-lo a hearty shove. Bon voyage. Next!

I’m A Celebrity Watch: Katie Price Is More Hated Than Baby P’s Mum
I’M A Celebrity Watch: I’m A Celebrity’s Katie Price is hated by all, loved by Alex Reid, hated by the entire country and replaced by a bikini…
On last night post-Katie Price show, Anorak began Bikini Watch – keeping a tally of how it was before the big holes left by Katie Price and her Jordans were plugged with other contestants.
After 2.8 seconds, we saw Sabrina Washington in a bikini, followed five seconds later by soon-to-be-ejected Lucy Benjamin (get ‘em while you can), and 11 seconds later then we saw Stuart Manning with his chest out.
At the end of the show, having heard Katie’s flat drawl expwain mi weaons fur leeevin’ ther jungal, there was not enough to for Benjamin to say what a wicked time she’d had.
It’s a good fist at replacing Katie Price, but for the papers it is too little and to, well, little. Though no longer on I’m A Celebrity, Katie Price dominates the tabloid chatter. The news round up:

In Pictures: Erotica 2009 At Olympia, London (NSFW)
TO the Opening day of ‘Erotica 2009′ at Olympia, London. Olympia is the big show hall that sits by the Tube’s appendix. Olympia is such a grandiose, overblown name for the big hall where your writer once attended a photocall for the Crufts winner to eat Pedigree Chum, saw indoor show jumping and lay down in a gazebo beneath dappled sky of plastic peonies at the Daily Mail Ideal home Exhibition. Olympia is just a big, soulless empty space to be used by animals and people who think it’s the 1950s. And it’s hosting Erotica 2009. Go figure.

In Photos: Susan Boyle Sings Rockefeller Center Plaza In New York City
SUSAN Boyle Watch: Anorak’s Man in New York was there to see Susan Boyle perform live on NBC’s ‘Today’ show from the Rockefeller Center Plaza in New York City.
Susan Boyle has undergone a makeover but thanks to her lack of slimness and cynicism, she remains marketable and easy for vain, Botox-laced US TV presenters to patronise. How does she manage to sing while looking like that? America looks on in awe. Boyle is so very brave…

I’m A Celebrity: Quitter Katie Price Wanted To Die With Jedward
I’M A Celebrity: Katie Price has left the jungle to be with her make-up.
Jordan walked out jungle. She put in a good shift. She’s not John Fashanu.
But Katie Price leaves the jungle with her head high and her Jordan’s held higher, like Saint Agatha in a bikini.
She leaves the show with a legacy of a slightly sunken hammock and the waters with traces of eyebrow felt tip and tangerine varnish.
Says Katie Price:
“Everyone else, give them something to do. You’ve seen me struggle, you’ve seen me cry, shake, want to die.
“I really don’t want to be doing this. I miss my children. I’m hungry.
“I want a nice bed and I don’t want to have to put myself through these horrible challenges.”
Did she walk in sympathy with Jedward?

X Factor: Jedward, John & Edward Grimes, Are Voted Out At Last
X Factor: Jedward, John & Edward, Are Voted Out. They are booed by the crowd.
The X Factor loses another warbling wannabe. And it’s Jedward.
The Duracell Gonks are in the sing off with Olly Murs, the man with a name like a contagion. They are toast. They are on their way to becoming a footnote in a TV history, a pub quiz question.
Jedward are two untalented, precocious, hard to like, over-exposed singing gonks who are part of a sick TV experiment to see what point Simon Cowell’s powers of deception wane and the masses rub their eyes and realise they are being served up crap.
C owell and Louis Walsh are like Mortimer and Randolph Duke in Trading Places, playing with people for entertainmnt.

Music In The Decade Of X Factor, American Idol, Jay Z, Michael Jackson And Amy Winehouse.
The decade was shaped by the arrival of popstar parvenus, those not genuine popstars who had crooned someone else’s song on The X Factor, Fame Academy, American Idol, Pop Idol or Fame Academy. There were authentic pop stars, like Amy Winehouse and Pete Doherty, the former who could sing and both who could live the live of excess. Eminem rocked, Britney Spears melted, Jay Z grew the brand and we wept for George Harrison, Diana and another Live Aid. And Michael Jackson died. In pictures:

Madeleine McCann And The Wanted ‘James Bond’ Spy
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann: The “secret agent con man”, Oakley International and detectives seek detectives…
For three summers, the hunt has been on for the media’s Our Maddie. She has yet to be found. What happend to her has yet to be established. All we know is that she missing.
The detectives have failed.
The Guardian: “FBI searches for detective who worked on Madeleine McCann case”
He’s gone missing? Is foul play suspected? What say the detectives who aren’t missing?
A British security consultant who was paid £300,000 to assist efforts by Kate and Gerry McCann to find their daughter Madeleine is being sought by the FBI over an alleged £1.3m fraud.
A £500,000 contract given to Kevin Halligen’s private detective agency, Oakley International, to help with the search for the missing child was terminated last year after a major benefactor of the McCanns expressed concerns about the quality of the firm’s work.

X Factor Live Blog: It’s Wham! Week. John and Edward, Danyl Johnson, Stacey Solomon, Jedward, Joe McElderry, Lloyd Daniels and contagious Olly Murs?
1. Lloyd Daniels - You’ve Got To Have Faith.
Lloyd needs faith because he doesn’t have a prayer of winning. Should have sung Wake Me Up Before You GoGo. A does of self-depracating humour might have saved him.
Damned by hard to like Louis Walsh: “I love everything except he voice Lloyd, I think you’re a real little pop star though.”
2. Stacey Solomon - I Can’t Make You Love Me
Is she getting blonder?
X Factor: Stacey Solomon Look Alike Gallery. She’s through to next week’s show.
