8175796IS Peaches Geldof finally carving out a niche for herself in the world of showbiz? As we’ve said Peaches is the wannabe rebel who turns up at the orgy to find mum and dad handing out towels. To truly rebel against her family, Peaches needs to do something surprising, like get a job as a nurse.

For now, though, signs are that Peaches has developed a shtick: death.

Having tweeted a car crash, in which death was all the chatter, Peaches then used Twitter to publish a photo of her sticking a gun at a friend’s head. This led to “an outcry from anti-gun campaigners and accusations that she is glamorising violence.”

Casey Johnson ‘Dead’ Lesbian Photos: Gayness Kills

CASEY Johnson, heir of baby powder and more of Johnson & Johnson is dead (pictures) at a too young age. Sad news. As MacGuffin notes: “When Brittany Murphy died, the Mail never ran a single headline along the lines of ‘Straight actress found dead in her home at 32’.” But the Mail gives us this about Johnson being a dead lesbian. Wonder if Mail hack Jan Moir thinks the death “unnatural”? When gayness kills:

Big Brother: Dane Bowers Tells All About Fight Night With Alex Reid

MORE news on the big Brother non-fight between Alex Reid and Dane Bowers, in which Reid did not fight Bowers. No bruise hiding face make-up needed. Big Brother will not end in murder:

“There was an incident that happened between a few people that were being silly. I don’t know why I got involved…to try and help out,” he said.

“I don’t think it’s worth getting into that exactly. Just because Alex and I were in the same vicinity, Alex’s name was brought into it as well and suddenly it turned into me and Alex fighting.”

In Pictures: Katie Price’s New Year’s Eve Party: Dane Bowers And Alex Reid ‘Fight’

katie-price-partyWITH Alex Reid (Mr Toffee Crisp 2010) and Toe Muffler Dane Bowers safely out of harm’s way in the Big Brother house, Katie Price and Peter Andre are free to resume their war of words.

Katie Price’s Career As Jordan (NSFW)

All over the web are pictures taken at Katie Price’s new Year’s Eve bash – literally (allegedly). The Star says Peter Andre is unhappy. This is “dignified” Peter Andre who, reportedly, told Alex Reid:

“You’re gonna get your legs broken!”

Now Peter Andre is:

Fuming dad Peter Andre could consult lawyers after the New Year’s Eve party, which turned into a boozy and violent bash. Pete, 36, is furious Junior, four, and Princess Tiáamii, two, had been present at the wild party.”

The party is said to have featured an alleged threesome rumpus, in his Redi hits Bowers and yelled:

“Dane’s lucky he’s not dead. He’s been on the phone to Katie. He’s gobbing off like a big f***ing p***k.”

While you analyse the macho language of these hard men (really, really hard men; you want some?), a source says:

“It was a family party and there were lots of children there with nannies to look after them. Princess and Junior enjoyed themselves and were in bed long before the fight so knew nothing about it.”

Anyhow, Bowers and Reid now say there was no fight. But there are pictures being broadcast all over the media – pictures that prove that when Katie Price doesn’t do anything, she’s still news…

Bono Kicks Off World Cup With Nelson Mandela

bono-brownIN January 2009, Bono, the U2 frontman, Mr G9, wrote an OpEd for the New York Times that we believed to be a parody. To ensure that the new decade works for the good of mankind, Bono will be fronting a concert and lending his name to organic rubber wrist bands advocating tax-breaks for elder statesmen of rock.

Before we see what Bono has this year, let’s hark back to last year’s missive:

Once upon a couple of weeks ago …

I’m in a crush in a Dublin pub around New Year’s. Glasses clinking clicking, clashing crashing in Gaelic revelry: swinging doors, sweethearts falling in and out of the season’s blessings, family feuds subsumed or resumed. Malt joy and ginger despair are all in the queue to be served on this, the quarter-of-a-millennium mark since Arthur Guinness first put velvety blackness in a pint glass.

hard-menACCORDING to Katie Price’s boyfriend Alex Reid, Dane Bowers is “lucky he’s not dead”. Turns out it’s nothing to do with the sex tape in which Bowers finds a use for a Duvall toe, but an opinion formed after the pair were involved in a “furious punch-up”.

A source says that Reid says:

“I’m trying to play it down. My elbow has hit him three times in the head. I worked his knees too. I never get in fights, ever. I was like, ‘Come on, please, let’s go,’ and he was lairing it up. He took my kindness as a weakness.”

emma-chawner2X FACTOR reject Emma Chawner – of the fat Ramsbottom Chawner family – was the singer who “claimed that her obesity discouraged employers from hiring her” and who was ritually abused in the press and on TV by a sneering Simon Cowell. She and her roly-poly family then moved into a car, along with their dog, cat and pet bird.

Celebrity Big Brother House In Photos

THOSE all-important first photos of the Celebrity Big Brother house are yours to gaze upon. The show’s producer, Shirley Jones (look out for her on Reality TV Producers – a fly-on-the-wall show following Big Brother staff looking for work and a spot on 100 Greatest Big Brother Moments) says the place is inspired by Dante’s Inferno.

Like Celebrity Big Brother, Dante’s inferno is something everyone has heard of but very few people have bothered to look at. It’s fitting. Says Jones:

“The famous line from Dante’s Inferno is ‘Abandon hope all ye who enter here’ which has inspired much of what we have done to the house, particularly the entrance which is dark and cavernous with flaming walls.”

liza-wedding-gest-jackson1WHO’S up for staying at David Gest’s hotel-museum dedicated to the King of Prop Michael Jackson? No, it’s not in Neverland. It’s in Plymouth, a Whenever Land in Devon.

Says Gest (soon to be a product of nominative determinism):

“I’ve always loved Plymouth. I want to bring a little bit of showbiz to the city.”

Plymouth needs no little showbiz sprinkle of desiccated Jackson, it being the birthplace of such luminaries as Sir Donald Sinden, George Passmore of Gilbert and George, Sharron Davies, Wayne Sleep and Angela Rippon, most of whom are alive.
