Barbara Windsor Leaves EastEnders: A Career In Pictures
BARBARA Windsor is leaving EastEnders, the show that needed her more then she needed it. Babs is a true talent, who proves that there is no shortcut to being a star.
Any act keen to get on should perform live before a paying audience who demand entertaining,. TV gives out free tickets and excuses the ordinary. Live on stage there is no escape.
Anorak looks back at Windsor’s career in pictures:

Shaddap You Face: John & Edward Fight To Bring Back The Novelty Christmas Song
X FACTOR Watch: Jedward walks, Max Clifford stalks, Pete Warterman puts on rose-tinted specs for Pop Idol, Cheryl Cole’s teeth are wanted, Dannii Minogue is a sight screen and Anorak’s campaign to bring back the novelty record…
Jedward, the two–headed beast, move onto another week’s awfulness. They need to make it truly terrible to keep their bandwagon going. It’s not easy to be hated. Look at Noel Edmonds.
They say that when Jedward sings the world heats up and a polar bar suffocates. They say the CIA are using recordings of Jedward to torture prisoners’ gonads. They say Jedward are husband and wife, hailing from a small factory in China.
They say they must win to restore the novelty record to its rightful place as the Christmas no.1. Where is the new Renee and Renato? Mr Blobby? Bob The Builder?
And after Christmas, where is the new Father Abraham’s crooning for his Smurfs, T.U.R.T.L.E. Power, The Purple People Eater and anything by STEPS? Jedward… We need you to bring back the novelty Christmas record.
To today’s X Factor news:
Herald (Ireland): “No stopping Jedward now as celeb agent Max Clifford is set to snap up the twins”
X Factor twins John and Edward Grimes are being lined up by celebrity agent Max Clifford as their popularity soars.
Look out for Jedward pulling on matching Chelsea kits, shagging a bit-part actress and becoming the new Kerry Katonas.

The Katie Price Burning: A Life In Pictures
IN Kent, they are burning Katie Price. They had thought of burning the BNP “people” but “they’ve had enough publicity”. So the next best thing to set on fire is Katie Price. She is being burnt because “it’s fun”.
The other reason to burn Katie is that it “gets the press and get the publicity”. But mostly setting light to a caring mother of three, one of the UK’s best-loved writer since Charles Dickens, and walking aide to masturbation is for “fun”.
The one other shocker is that dignified Peter Andre never thought of it first…

Peter Andre And Katie Price: Harvey’s Swine Flu, A Gay Secret And Back Together
KATIE Price & Peter Andre Watch:Peter’s “gay secret”, Harvey’s celebrity swine flu, Yate awaits, Peter and Katie back together and Peter’s sex life…
“PETER Andre’s Big Gay Secret,” announces the Daily Star’s front page,.
What’s that big gay secret, then? Peter isn’t all that tall:
PETE Andre is poised to become the new Paul O’Grady in a megabucks telly deal. The Aussie is at the centre of a TV tug-of-war as two major networks battle to sign him up. He has been approached by Channel 4 and ITV about hosting his own show. Channel 4 bosses are keen to unveil him as the new O’Grady, while ITV want him as their permanent guest host on Friday’s This Morning.
Paul O’Grady is gay. Is that the “Big Gay Secret?” As for Sentimental Pete presenting a TV show:
Last night an ITV spokesman said there were no new plans to work with Peter. But he added: “He is currently working on This Morning and ITV1 and doing very well.” There was no-one available for comment at Channel 4.
So what is Peter Andre up to if he’s not presenting a tea-time telly show?

Carrie Prejean Sex Tape: Get The Picture
CARRIE Prejean, the sacked Miss California who dared to agree with Barack Obama on gay rights, and was duly threatened with violence by celebrity blogger gone native Perez Hilton, has followed her mucky pictures – shocker: model wears underwear in pictures! - with a sex tape.
When sacked from her job as representing Miss California in a bikini – those dirty, dirty, photos - she sued the Miss California organization for libel and religious discrimination. Miss California USA counter-sued, saying that Prejean never repaid a loan she received for breast implants. (She can enter the Miss Plastic surgery GP).
Now the sex tape leaks, or threatens to. The web goes wild. First up is TMZ, which tells us:
Carrie Prejean demanded more than a million dollars during her settlement negotiations with Miss California USA Pageant officials - that is, until the lawyer for the Pageant showed Carrie an XXX home video of her handiwork.
That’s a pun. Prejean is a practicing Christian, which means her religion can be used against her. Prejean was suing the pageant organisers for slander, libel and “religious discrimination”

Naked Kelly Brook Is Ordered To Get Bigger Buns
KELLY Brook’s buns are too small. This is not our opinion but that of the powers that be who run the London Underground.
Kelly Brook is starring in a production of Calendar Girls, the play of the film about a group of frumpy, gravity-tugged middle-aged women getting out their baps and lamingtons for charity. Young, bouncy Kelly plays Celia, the role made famous by the older and more buxom Celia Imrie.

Cross-Dressing John Kenley Is A Life Ignored
RIP John Kenley. Anorak’s Man In LA remembers the cross-dressing, hermaphroditic theatre star being ignored by the big media:
ADD the Los Angeles Times to the mainstream media outlets that leave the most colorful part of a great person’s life out of the story. The LA Times is a couple of days behind the New York Times in reporting the death at 103 of John Kenley, the Ohio summer stock theatre impresario known for casting television and movie stars including Burt Reynolds, Mae West, William Shatner and Joe Namath in popular plays and musicals.
We were doing a bit of quick research Sunday morning to see if he’d brought The Hudson Brothers to Ohio, when we discovered that the famously-closeted Merv Griffin had outed the beloved Mr. Kenley as an alleged “registered” hermaphrodite, and that the producer lived half the year in Florida as “Joan”.

X Factor: Gordon Brown Has XXX With Danyl Johnson And Stacey Solomon
X Factor Watch: Gordon Brown makes his mark with Danyl Johnson and Stacey Solomon, Jedward hanged until dancing, Alexandra Burke gets some sick PR and more…
Daily Telegraph: “Jedward can win, says Louis, as X Factor accused of giving pair second chance”
…it has been claimed that the organisers of the show gave Jedward a second chance in that they appeared at auditions in London in May before their successful attempt in Glasgow only days later. The evidence, it is claimed, is visible in two video clips from the separate trials.
What’s this talk of trials? Is being unable to sing and dance now a crime in our celebrity obsessed land? It is the talentless that are the novelty acts. Send them down to be hanged until they dance.
Sweet Charidee
