Justin Bieber Plays The Eiffel Tower: Pictures
JUSTIN Bieber is still in Paris. Hark! Hear that? That, Britisher, is the sound of French teenage frenzy. It’s the sound of backpacks, pastel-coloured anoraks and denim. Anorak’s Teen in Paris spotted Justin Bieber performing on the 1st floor of the Eiffel Tower. As anyone who has queued for a ride up the Tower knows, this is no small achievement. In a few days Bieber should make it the second deck…

David And Victoria Beckham Driven Into Lake Como Villa By George Clooney’s Paparazzi
GEORGE Clooney is selling his 18th-century Villa Oleandra at Laglio home in Lake Como to escape the paparazzi and the fans eager to see him and his Italian lover Elisabetta Canalis.
So who will buy a place besieged by fame-hungry loons? The Times tells us that David Beckham told team-mates that the villa was “quiet and peaceful, and not far from Milan”.
The Corriere della Sera says the Beckham – Day-vid and Vicky – want to buy it. As the headline will tell us:

Muse, Kasabian And Lily Allen Get The Finger At The NME Awards: In Pictures
THE NME Awards are better than the Brits because they offer the winners, like Muse and The Specials, Lily Allen, Rage Against The Machine, Lady Gaga, Kasbabian and JLS (worse band) the chance to do something adolescent with the award – a big shiny raised middle finger. Do you present it as it is, hold is in front of your crotch, stick it on your head, shove the finger into your mouth..? Here are some ideas, in pictures:

Cheryl Cole’s Divorce In Pictures: Ashely’s Tattooed Women And Blaming Joan
CHERYL Cole and Ashley Cole Divorce: Cheryl’s tattoo spreads, Jonathan Ross, blaming the mother-in-law Joan and John Terry. Anorak’s round-up of the big story:
The Sun’s front-page news is that Cheryl Cole is being erased. No, Cheryl is not dead. She is merely morphing into Chelsy Tweedy by having her tattoo removed. And, as luck as it, this change is taking place just as Chelsy is poised to crack America and put her hair in a bun.
The Sun tells readers that Cheryl is to have her “Mrs Cole” tattoo removed – the one that adorns the back of her neck in the style of a toddler’s felt tip doodle. It looks as if Ashley daubed it during a night of love. Do other women bear this “tag”, as graffiti-ologists call it. Check in the mirror. Ask a friend to help by holding a mirror to your rear while you face forward into another mirror.
Other love notes to look out for:
“Ashley was here”
“LOST: Mobile. If found call Cheryl’s mobile”
“I am not Ashley Cole”
In other news, the Sun continues to hunt down Ashley Cole, who – and this incidental to its daily stories on him – once sued the paper and won.
In “LOVE RAT SIDESTEPS SUN’S BIG QUESTION” the paper tells us:
“Ashley refused to say sorry for betraying Cheryl yesterday after the Sun tracked him down to a swish sports clinic in south west France”.
This is the swish clinic where swish Ashley is having his swish broken leg treated, swishly.
The story is that Cheryl is the nation’s sweetheart and in letting her down the Sun wants answers from Ashley, the anti-sweetheart. The Sun will fight, fight, fight for Cheryl, patron saint of teary hugs, mojo and toilet attendants.
Cheryl Cole And Ashley Cole’s Marriage In Pictures
And the thing is that it wasn’t Ashley’s fault. If you want to blame anyone, blame his mother-in-law, Joan. A source tells the Star:
“He blames everything on Joan living with them. He says they haven’t had room to breathe and moaned that she took her daughter’s side in everything. They couldn’t even have a proper row he said. But Cheryl insisted on her mum moving in after he cheated on her the first time. He was so desperate to keep the marriage going he would have agreed to anything. But he didn’t think of the long-term problems.”
Yep, this is the same Ashley Cole who blaming himself just yeterday and was talking of having therapy. Auch are the facts.
But wait a moment. It was Cheryl’s fault. The Mirror reports:
“One minute Ashley is grovelling and apologising for his betrayals and the next he is blaming her successful career for the split. Cheryl has been told Ashley strayed because he felt so alone in their marriage. Whilst she was off working on X Factor and with Girls Aloud, he was either at home alone, or in a hotel room playing video games while away with Chelsea.”
Poor, Cheryl. She is said to be all ready to “open her heart” to Jonathan. No, not John Terry. Jonathan Ross.
Let’s not complicate things…

The Sun (front page): “CHERYL KICKS ASH – BEAUTY DUMPS FOOTIE STAR HUBBY”

Terry is Cole’s captain at Chelsea and was his skipper at England too – until he resigned in light of allegations in the New of The World (the Sun on Sunday) that he had shagged loadsa women, including his Chelsea and England teammate Wayne’s Bridge’s lover, one Vanessa Perroncel.

National Enquirer After Brangelina: Jessica Aniston And Jessica Simpson At ‘War’
WEEK Two of the post Angelina Jolie and Brad Pit National Enquirer front page and things are looking promising for Jennifer Aniston, who remains in situ.
With Brangelina suing the NoTW, and so putting the US tabloid on a stage of high alert, Jennifer Aniston is on her own.
Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie Touch Up Super Bowl: In 70 Pictures
Well, she’s not alone for long because the NE has a new love triangle war brewing, and the three-points of the news compass are Aniston, Jessica Simpson and John Mayer. This is:
“Jen & Jessica – REVENGE ON LOVE RAT JOHN MAYER!”
Inside and:
“JEN & JESSICA DECLARE WAR ON JOHN!”
Mayer is said to have upset the women by called Simpson “sexual napalm” and “crack cocaine” (is that good or bad?) and portrayed Aniston as “boring”. Says Mayer of fun Jen:
“I want to dance… I want to get on an airplane and be a ninja… I don’t want to pet dogs in the kitchen.”
A euphemism?
And… Oh, it’s just no good. Without those weekly tales of Brad’s secret love (sources say) to betrayed Aniston, Angelina Jolie’s rage (say pals) and Aniston’s loveliness (says insider), the Enquirer is trying but failing to come up with a story.

Cheryl Cole, Derek Hough, A Terrier In The Bedroom And Ashley Cole’s Women
CHERYL Cole and Ashley Cole continue to dominate the red-tops front pages. Readers get to learn more of Derek Hough. The news round-up:
The Sun says Derek has been “comforting” Cheryl Cole for “seven hours”. The Star counts “nine hours”. The Star sees him leave Cheryl Cole’s hotel at 4am. The Sun sees him leave at 4:15am. Both papers lead with shot of Derek Hough carrying a dog.
The Sun has now written more about Chelsea and England’s Ashley Cole sex life more than it has about his club captain and former national skipper John Terry. Ashley Cole once sued the Sun and won. John Terry gives the Sun exclusives.
Why John Terry Escapes And The Sun Guns For Ashley Cole
The media narrative is clear: Ashley Cole is bad. And Chelsy Cole, the woman with “Mrs Cole” tattooed on the back of her neck who once assaulted a toilet worker, who told us that we must fight for our love, sold her wedding photos to OK! and posed for pictures with an ice cream sundae between her thighs is “dignified”.
Cheryl Cole is married. As the Sun says:
American Derek went to the Girls Aloud beauty’s hotel room and emerged smiling broadly.
An onlooker said: “He looked very pleased with himself.”

After The Rapture Pet Care: Taking Care Of Your Furry Friends After Jesus
COMETH the Rapture, goeth the Cat. What does The Rapture means for your pet? Do they believe? Do you like violins? As Christians ascend to the glory, the Jews, Hindus and Cargoists will take care of your pets. Fear ye not. There is hope after The Rapture:
The deal:
* Dear Fellow Christian:
As the Apostle Paul describes in Thessalonians as quoted above, at some point in the future Jesus will come in the air, catch up the Church from the earth, and then return to heaven with the Church. This is known as the Rapture and it will be glorious. But what of our pets? Who will take care of our pets when we’re gone?

Katie and Pricness Tenaladymee are the ITV2 test card, a commercial station’s update on the BBC filler which features a girl with unmoving face playing noughts and crosses with a clown.

Madeleine McCann: Robert Murat Sues Jane Tanner (?) And McCanns Sue TV1
MADDIE WATCH – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann – GERRY and Kate McCann have been in Lisbon. As one trial ends – the one against Goncalo Amaral – another begins: the McCanns are launching criminal proceedings against a Portuguese TV channel TVI. And Robert Murat is reported to be suing Jane Tanner.
As Sky’s Hannah Thomas-Peter in Lisbon reports:
Gerry and Kate McCann say TV1 was in “material breach” of a court injunction issued to prevent allegations made in a book by former lead investigator Goncalo Amaral being repeated.
The McCanns deny that their daughter died in their holiday apartment. There is no proof that she did. But there is a book. In Maddie: The Truth Of The Lie, Amaral takes the media conceit that saw Madeleine McCann – renamed Maddie in the media to make snappier headlines – alleges the innocent child died and the couple faked her abduction. The parents are innocent.
Will the book be banned? It’s one for the judges to decide.
In other Our Maddie news, shiny-faced telly newsboy Keir Simmons, Tweets:
Lawyer confirms: Robert Murat, wrongly accused in #McCann case, has made legal complaint against friend of McCann’s Jane Tanner
That’s Robert Murat, tried by the tabloids, linked to Soham killer Ian Huntley by a voracious media high on specualtion, fingered in the crowd by a “creepy” tabloid hack, a whisper of “paedo“, a scent of death, who met some of the so-called Tapas 7 (they sued and they won) at a police station – “You’re a liar. I saw you peek in apartment,” went the Mirror’s headline. The Mirror that told us on September 2007:
DAILY MIRROR front page: “MADELEINE: DNA is found. Arrest expected ‘in 48 hours’.”
No yellow ribbon on the Mirror’s front page. But news of that blood found on the McCann’s apartment walls. We learn: “The DNA of a potential suspect in the Madeleine McCann case has been found by British scientists.”
Poor, Robert Murat, the one-eyed, innocent man – the innocent police -approved translator– portrayed in the tabloid press as an “oddball” with a bouncy castle festish, an “alibi blown“, the false celebrity father who sued the press and won and WON. His name is forever sullied – a benchmark for the abused. The double, And now he is seeking recompense – for what is unclear.
There’s lots more in the Anorak Forums…

ANGELINA Jolie and Brad Pitt sue the News of The World for saying they’ve split, get spotted at the Super Bowl rutting like adolescents, and for the first time in years, the National Enquirer’s lead story of Jennifer Aniston does not feature an accompanying “source-say” piece about Brangelina in CRISIS.

Kevin Smith Attacked In Global War On Fat: Too Wide For The Sky
THE director of such cult classic films at “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back,” and “Chasing Amy” didn’t exactly get A-list treatment by Southwest Airlines last night on a flight between Oakland and Burbank, writes Anorak’s Man in LA. Kevin Smith is “Too Wide For The Sky“.
Kevin Smith was actually thrown off his flight because he physical size was deemed by the pilot to be a security risk.
Smith took to Twitter to vent about the situation, owning up to the fact that he’s overweight, but pointing out that he still fits within the seat’s arm rests and doesn’t require a seatbelt extender.
Dear @SouthwestAir – I know I’m fat, but was Captain Leysath really justified in throwing me off a flight for which I was already seated?
Southwest has since Twittered and telephoned an apology to Smith, along
with a $100 gift certificate toward future Southwest fares.
