Rihanna Naked And Arty For W Magazine: In Pictures

RIHANNA is, like Tila Tequila (NSFW), a one-woman content factory. She does the music. She does the words. And she does her own pap shots. This is how it is for celebrities in a never ending news cycle where 15 minutes of fame is the industry standard. You need to feed the machine. So here’s Rihanna is typical naked pose, this time for W. It’s black and white (tabloid for ‘arty’) and in the best possible taste:

American Idol: Victoria Beckham Fails Her Audition

american-idol_judgesAMERICAN Idol’s judging panel was once more set than Katie Price in a training bra. Then kook Paula Abdul gibbered off, Ellen Degeneres strolled in, Simon Cowell pulled out, Kara DioGuardi remained and Randy Jackson continued to call everyone “dog” and tell them that they “worked it out”.

But in episode one of the enw season, something odd happened: Victoria Beckham appeared. Vicky’s job was simple: make whoever followed her look good (Ellen Degeneres), bang on about what a dry sense of humour she has (break out the KY) and see if anyone licks her head. Or if anyone notices that Vicky’s singular talent is to be pushy. Ok, two talents – she’s married to David Beckham.

America watched Sticky Vicky. And America judged:

Cheryl Cole Soaps Up For ‘Sick’ Ashley Cole

cheryl-cole5CHERYL Cole would like Glamour readers to know that when she gets home of a night Ashley Cole is not sick on her or putting in for a transfer. In fact, he’s a real gent, a maid man:

“Last night, he ran me a bath, made me a cup of tea, and got my razor and shaving foam for me. He’s just ace.”

It’s a tableau of domestic bliss, a pastel-hued dream sequence from a biopic into Cheryl’s life. And as Ashley holds up his wedding suit for Cheryl to shave in, we read more about new man Ashley Cole:

The Tabloids Want Lindsay Lohan Dead, Although Paris Hilton Or Britney Spears Would Do

national-enquirerIN this week’s National Enquirer, readers are invited to play a game: “WHO’LL DIE NEXT!” Brian Reade can join in. Will it be Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears or – hey – why not make your own suggestion? Set your Celebrity Death Text Alert App. to “Stand By” and read on:

To narrow the field, the magazine reminds gamers that Brittany Murphy and Casey Johnson are already dead. This leaves a reduced death pool. The Enquirer adds further help by listing the possible causes of death:

Brittany Murphy (1977-2009)

Paris Hilton – “Hard Partying”
Mischa Barton – “Rehab hell”
Eminem – “Fighting addiction”
Britney Spears – “New meltdown”

Hmmmm… Who to vote for? The biggest picture, however, is of Lindsay Lohan. Fear is that she “weeps” to death.

Inside the magazine, and DJ AM Adam Goldstein remains dead. But things are not getting easier, guessers. The fame drain is enlarged to take in some more youngsters who remain stubbornly alive:

Tara Reid – “Troubled”
Amy Winehouse – “Fighting”
Kirsten Dunst – “Depression”

Introducing Darren: Not The New Susan Boyle

darren-boyleDARREN, the Anglo-Nubian goat, will not be the next Susan Boyle. Darren will not appear on Britain’s Got Talent. Darren’s handlers are of the mind that his performing before sarky Simon Cowell, inflated Piers Morgan and eyebrow wrangler Amanda Holden could be bad for his health. Darren will not climb a fence and wave his left hoof in a professional capacity.

What Really Hurt Shlock DJ Artie Lang: Shock Video

artie-langRADIO shlock Artie Lang has stabbed himself. Howards Stern’s Shlock DJ is not in good shape. Anorak’s Man in LA looks at the ruination of a fool:

THERE’S been no word on the condition or whereabouts of obese, slovenly, alcoholic, heroin- and cocaine-addict comic Artie Lange since he was released from the hospital last week after attempting suicide with nine stabs of a 13-inch Wolfgang Puck kitchen knife.

Celebity Big Brother: Danny Dyer Misses Out To Vinnie Jones

DANNY Dyer – star of films about soccer hard men and All Star Mr & Mrs – tells Zoo magazine readers that “Vinnie Jones must have had a huge tax bill. He’s sitting in a house with a bird who slept with Ronnie Wood and an idiot who’s rumping Jordan, so that’s the only reason he can be there.

Katie Price’s Career As Jordan (NSFW)

If there one thing sadder than a celeb writing about Big Brother it is the celeb not even being on Big Brother and speaking in 1950s Cockney English.

“He’s a cut above the others in fame terms. Mind you, that’s not hard. You could put the Chuckle Brothers in and they’d be a cut above everyone else.”

Hannah Waterman’s Weight Gain DVD: Shedding The Dead Weight Husband, In Pictures

hannahWHEN Hannah Waterman left EastEnders, we feared that we’d only see her on Father & Daughters reality TV series Daddy Pwease, in which she and dad Dennis Waterman battle it out with other dads and daughters to see which dad can give his daughter the biggest bunk up and which daughter can scream until she is sick. (Kelly Osbourne stars.)

This might be why Hannah embarked on a slimming regime that has seen her change from being a likeable, full-figured actress to a drawn, bone-faced flogger of post Fat-Mass celebrity fitness DVDs.

The cover of the DVD is fabulous, featuring a chubby Waterman grimacing, her head turned towards the new hard-bodied Waterman. It looks as though this is a “Keep Fat” DVD and the chubby Waterman will teach your how to keep the weight on and not turn into a sinewy horror.

But Hannah’s work-out was not the only way she lost weight – she shed loadsa bulk when she ditched her husband, EastEnders’ lovable loser Ricky Groves.

Dermot O’Leary Presents The X Factor Election On BBC3

DERMOT O’Leary – presenter of the X Factor, literally – is looking to front an election special on BBC3. And signs are that O’Leary might have adopted a deft touch in irony:

“Politics is a huge obsession. I’m incredibly excited but it won’t be particularly serious. I won’t be the man with the swingometer.”

File under: beyond irony.

Tila Tequila Says She Knows Who ‘Killed’ Casey Johnson

tila_tequila7CASEY Johnson is dead. Her death not only gave us the first Twitter Coma but introduced one woman content factory Tila Tequila to the great unwashed. It also pricked our memories of Simon Cowell’s old associate and reality telly fodder Jasmine Lennard.

Tila Tequila (NSFW)

Tila was scheduled to appear on Larry King Live. but before doing so, Lennard issued a legal letter warning the show against Tila using it “as a platform to make further false and defamatory allegations” about her.

Casey Johnson

The lawyer says, among other things, Tila better not allege Jasmine has a criminal record or outstanding warrant, that Jasmine broke into Tila’s home, that Jasmine is a prostitute, and that Jasmine is pregnant or has ever been pregnant.

By coincidence, the interview is scrapped.

Lady GaGa In Madonna Swearing Shocker

81009691MORE evidence that Lady GaGa is Madonna’s Camel – an amalgam of all Madge’s tricks and spits formed by committee.

Remember when Madonna asked the Live 8 crowd: “Are you f***ing ready, London?” Hundreds complained.

Incidentally, that concert for care was also illuminated by Snoop Dogg, extolling the mob to “Wave your motherfucking hands in the air – wave the motherfuckers like you just don’t care.”

Anyhow, here’s Lady Gaga doing the swearing popstar thing, telling the audience at Live: Isle of MTV:

“Put your hand up in the air and dance, you motherfuckers.”

Gordon Ramsay’s Alleged Mistress Sarah Symonds Pitches ‘Mistresses Of The Rich & Famous’ TV Show

sarah-symondsWHAT links Tiger Woods, to Gordon Ramsay (allegedly)? Why, a TV show featuring women who claims to have shagged one of them in an extra-maritial capacity.

Re-introducing Sarah Symonds, she who survived a year-long relationship with Jeffery Archer, penned Having An Affair? A Handbook For The Other Woman, which advises “get out of it, or if not, get the most out of it”, and “never date a poor married man”.

Anorak’s Man in LA looks on:

If you thought Michael Lohan and Jon Gosselin’s idea for a reality show called “The Divorced Dads Club” was bad, wait’ll you hear this one.

A woman who’s well known for being the other woman, allegedly, is pitching a show about former mistresses of the rich & famous.

Her name’s Sarah Symonds and she claims to have been giving celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay lots of services on the side for at least seven years. (He denies all allegations.)

Celebrity Big Brother: Ivanova’s Sex Games, Hannah Kamelmacher And Ronnie Wood Dream Dates Heather Mills

katia-jonasCELEBRITY Big Brother: Katia Ivanova is on a “SEX PLOT TO WIN”. The Daily Star leads with an “Exclusive” review of the telly show, telling readers that “two-timing” Katia Ivanova faces a “hate mob if she is axed because of her cruel sex antics”.

Pictures of Jonas Altberg’s orgy here

The story goes that Katia has “dumped” someone called Dan Turner so she can fondle Scandinavian fish fancier Basshunter “in a ploy to become more popular” and give us the tabloid couple Bass-Inova. It’s what the Star terms a “bizarre ‘one out, one in’ sex game”.

Only:

But last night fans saw her dump the hunky musician after she claimed he had got “too clingy”. He was close to tears and said: “I feel like a kid who got loads of sweets and then had them taken away.”

Suri Cruise Creates New Brother From Car Parts

7965253SURI Cruise has taken delivery of a replica of an Indy race car worth $30,000. Yep, we thought that too: how’s she gonna drive in it those heels?

A source tells all news media:

“Suri has been mesmerized by auto racing on TV so he thought it would be fun for her to have her own little car to ride in.”

Suri also likes programmes about the moon, the film Independence Day and a documentary she once saw on France.

“If Suri truly takes to the sport, Tom plans on having a little race track installed at his L.A. property. But for now she’ll just be going up and down the family’s long driveway.”

Celebrity Big Brother: Alex Reid’s Ferrero Rocher Moments Without Katie Price

alex-reid-cbbCELEBRITY Big Brother’s walking Toffee Crisp Mr Alex Reid has proved the doubters wrong: he can talk and he can walk. In Big Brother, his talking is much like his walking: trapped in a three-room maze of thought and pointless repetition. But Alex’s mum is talking. And she says:

“I tried to talk him out of it. But that’s what he wanted to be when he was just 14. It’s a shame. He used to be such a good-looking man. His nose and ears are dreadful now.”

No, not. Reid’s adolescent ambition was not to date Katie Price. She’s not responsible for his nose and ears – yet.

“And he’s too gentle to be a fighter, really. That’s one of his problems in the ring. He still gets upset when he knocks someone down.”

He dares to care. But how’s he going to do in big Brother, mummy?

“He won’t stay in until the end. We just hope he stays in long enough for people to see the real him. As long as he doesn’t say anything too stupid he should be okay. He can’t fight forever. He needs a career.”

The inference seems to be that Alex Reid’s carer will him being the “real him”. There will be imposters and impressionists but there can only be one Alex Reid. What role the real Alex Reid will perform for money is moot points, but we’d suggest that he’d make a terrific novelty hat stand and should the ambassador tire to Ferrero Rocher’s vomit balls, he could play the butler dishing out the Toffee Crisps to distinguished others.

Either that or edit the Daily Star…

Channel 4 Advertises For Willing Knife Crime Murder Victim

television-is-deadARE you dying? Do you have nothing to lose apart from the last remaining shred of dignity the hospital treatment affords you? Well, Fulcrum TV want you for a new telly show. You will be knifed to death in an East London kebab shop to show the viewers just how terrible it is. Or you might be allowed to die in some other imaginative way.

Jade Goody’s Funeral Pictures

However you die, you can be filmed to be filmed in the run-up to your death for your entertainment. It’s a little bit of Switzerland we can all enjoy. Mumbling about Jade Goody or saying it’s what she would have wanted are not vital but may add an edge to your death. Here’s the advert:

“We are currently keen to talk to someone who, faced with the knowledge of their own terminal illness and all that it entails, would nonetheless consider undergoing the process of ancient Egyptian embalming.”

Popstar To Operastar: Knives, Myleene Klass, Marsh, Sodomy And Meatloaf

POPSTAR To Operastar is the telly whos that will feature not only Katherine Jenkins giving full chest to an aria in a low-cut dress, but also Kym Marsh little Jimmy Osmond, Marcella Detroit, Bernie Nolan, Danny Jones (McFly) and Vanessa White. We were at the press launch, staged at the Sarastro eatery on Drury lane, London, where diners wash their hands before cartoons of people being sodomised and wonder if the artist works in the kitchens and is right now fingering your food? They also get to wonder if the ubiquitous Myleene Klass is going to use her knife to make her co-singers instant stars of 10 Years Younger, the scalpel-led face rearrangement show?

Celebrity Big Brother: Katia Ivanova’s Old Man Sex Orgy In Pictures

ronnie2CELEBRITY Big Brother offers you the chance to vote out Heidi Fleiss, Katia Ivanova or Lady Sovereign.

Katia has been flirting with fish fancier Basshunter, aka Scandinavian DJ Jonas Altberg (pictures of his orgy here). If Katie goes then we might never get the headline Bass-Inova, and that would be a shame.

Ekaterina Ivanova And Ronnie Wood: A Romance In Pictures

And news of Katie in the Sun promises much. In “BB STAR’S ROMP WITH HOOKERS”, we read of four-in-a-bed romp with two hookers and an ageing tycoon.”

The ex-lover of Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood jumped into bed with two other girls who were both paid £500 each for the sex session. Former vice girl Ellie Hughes last night told how sexy Katia – who took no cash – joined in the foursome for fun months before she met wrinkly rocker Ronnie, 62. And the man the three beauties bedded was also a millionaire in his 60s.
