Robbie Williams’ Lap-Dancing Panto: Photos
TAKE That’s Robbie Williams followed his performance on the X Factor with a visit to the Opera House in Manchester.
(That X Factor performance was uncomfortable viewing, wasn’t it? It was all clammy and white-eyed-staring, like the part in the horror film where the grave digger hears a knocking from the ground and voice calls: “We’re coming to get you Robbie.”)

How James Blunt’s ‘Music To Waterboard By’ Prevented World War 3
JAMES Blunt prevented World War 3, says James Blunt. He did this by allowing his tunes to be played to inmates at Guantanamo Bay over and over and over as an alternative to waterboarding and upsetting the Chinese. Well, no. Says Blunt of an Army trip to Kosovo in 1999:
“We had 200 Russians lined up pointing their weapons at us aggressively. The direct command [that] came in from general Wesley Clark was to overpower them. Various words were used that seemed unusual to us. Words such as ‘destroy’ came down the radio.”
“Destroy… Blunt….Records…Over… Destroy… Blunt…Records… Over…”
“The soldiers directly behind me were from the Parachute Regiment, so they’re obviously game for the fight.”
So. You led them in a singsong and got them well up for the kill?
“There are things that you do along the way that you know are right, and those that you absolutely feel are wrong. That sense of moral judgment is drilled into us as soldiers in the British army.”
Moral Judgement 1: Do not attack an Amy bigger than your own.
“It didn’t come to that. British general Sir Mike Jackson sent an admonishing message down the wire. [His] exact words at the time were, ‘I’m not going to have my soldiers be responsible for starting world war three’. [He] told us why don’t we sugar off down the road [and], you know, encircle the airfield instead.”
Blunt says the action could have “absolutely” started World War 3. And prevented James Blunt from recording You’re Beautiful.
You win some; you lose some…

Katy Perry Upskirt And Breasts Photos: BBC Teen Awards Get Lift
CAN looking up Katy Perry’s skirt and down her top make the BBC Teen Awards a hit? At the Hammersmith Apollo, London, Perry wore a dress with the candy machine dispenser over her veejay. For the teens. Especially for those teens stood in the front row with camera phones.
Russell Brand does not you like pictures up his wife’s skirts. But where was he to save the day?
In photo 4, Katy obliges the congregation with a stoop into the crowd. She’s a modern day Saint Agatha is Katy, a god-fearing, breast carrying entertainer waiting to be painted in your adoration…

Paris Hilton’s Tennis Girl Pose Is Laughable: Photos
PARIS Hilton pulls the Tennis Girl pose, lifting the hem of her top to show her backside in a pose made famous by Martin Eliott’s poster photo. Paris Hilton is all about harnessing someone else’s eroticism, channelling former glories, awkwardly. Before this she was a gawky Marilyn Monroe, a bottle of her new scent – Tease – aimed at her slightly parted lips.
Paris Hilton Boob Watch (photos)
As 14 says: “COME ON, just go ahead and forge the bottle to appear a bit more phallic and show Paris slobbering all over the bottle’s tip.”

Gorillaz And Joe McElderry Turn On Manchester Illuminations: Photos
WHO better to turn on the Manchester illuminations than Cock-er-ney geyser Damon Albarn and his Gorillaz? The answer is most likely Geordie not Joe McElderry, who was also there to perform at the M.E.N. arena. In any case, it’s a rhetorical question and Take That were busy…

Jedward Are A Video Game The X Factor Lost: Photos
JEDWARD, Simon Cowell’s legacy, were flogging the Nintendo DS Dragon Quest IX medieval village opening in London’s Covent Garden. In true X Factor style Jedward gave the video game lots of energy and made the DS their own.
John and Edward are, of course, pathetically crap singers and worse dancers. But they were the most entertaining thing on last year’s X Factor.

Justin Bieber’s X Box Avatar Is A Small Black Girl In A Plaid Skirt
JUSTIN Bieber has met with Jon Ronson in San José, California. The highlights of that interview are:
The Inner Girl:
Bieber’s Xbox Avatar is a “small black girl wearing a plaid skirt”
His favourite YouTube videos:
Bieber: “There’s a video called Arab Screaming that’s really funny. It’s an Arabian guy who starts screaming. It’s just hilarious. You should see it. Go.”
Does he read online comments?
“‘You’re so stupid’, ‘Your song sucks’, I even get, ‘You’re gay’ for no apparent reason. What’s the point of that? But then I remember there’s so many people who like my videos who don’t even comment. When I like a video I don’t waste my time commenting. But people who hate you – they’re going to take time to hate you.”
Fame:
Ronson: “Do you ever feel wistful for the days before you were famous?” I ask.
Bieber: “I’m living my dream and I’m just enjoying every minute of it.”
The Hip Square:
Bieber: “I can do a Rubik’s Cube in a minute and a half,” he says.
“Whatever state it’s in?” I ask.
“Yeah.”
“Are you a genius?” I ask.
“I wouldn’t say a genius, but I can do a Rubik’s Cube. And sudoku puzzles.”
The Rebel:
Bieber: “Singers aren’t supposed to eat dairy before a show but we all know I’m a rule breaker.”
The Heebie Bieber
He recites the first line of the Shema – the Jewish morning and evening prayer – getting it syllable perfect: “Shema Yisrael Adonai Eloheinu Adonai ‘Ehad.” He pauses. “Christianity was based off of Jesus being a Jew,” he says.
Special
Bieber: “I…” Justin says. “I have a small case of ADD.”
Ronson: “How does it manifest itself?” I ask.
Bieber: “If I don’t understand something, and I’m bored, I don’t pay attention, so my teacher has to really make it fun for me. Every hour he has to give me a five-to 10-minute break. But after the break I’ll be back into it. I’ll be good.”
Ronson: “Have you actually been diagnosed with ADD?”
Bieber: “No. It’s self-claimed.”
The Bieber Descends:
“The huge steel-framed hot air balloon basket is designed to fly me out over the crowd, dipping not quite low enough for them to touch, but close enough for me to see all those beautiful faces.”
Love In The Time Of Bieber
Ronson: “How will you ever find a girlfriend who won’t just spend the whole time thinking, ‘It’s Justin fucking Bieber’?”
Bieber: “That’s what’s hard about this. There are so many girls who would just do anything for me because of my status. Someone told me it’s great to be with somebody who has just as much to lose as you do.”
Well, Yes:
Nearby, there’s a larger-than-life-size cardboard cutout of Justin. The real Justin wanders over to it. “Who are you looking at, buddy?” he mutters. He punches it in the face.
Quite.

Miku Hatsune Is What Cheryl Cole Pretends To Be
MIKU Hatsune stomps on Cheryl Cole and all the manufactured popstars. Here’s a video of thousands of Japanese music fans swaying along to a singing synthesizer application and its hologram female singer called Miku Hatsune.
Forget the need for flesh and blood Cheryl Coles miming, lip-syncing and auto-tuning their voices to look like singers. Just cut to the chase and create the woman you want to shag and plug her in.
Mariah Carey Talks To The World About Her Miscarriage
MARIAH Carey is telling OK! about her miscarriage:
“I’ve never really been a very forthcoming person about my personal stuff. Why do I have to talk about this in front of the world? It’s a little strange”.
Hey, what the world demands, you must deliver unto, Mariah. She duly goes on to tell us about her progesterone treatment and:
“If you really look at my life, I’ve never had a personal life, or if did, it was just wearing masks and it’s not existing, you know?”
Not sure. Might have to wait for the autobiography…

No, it’s not Danni Minogue giving Cheryl make-up tips.
And, noooo, it’s not Cheryl getting the Aimee Walton look in a bid to seduce the Chelsea and England player.
It’s just a spot of fun…

Katie Price’s NHS Cosmetic Surgery Tips
KATIE Price is on the Loose Women TV show. She alludes to a bad experience with cosmetic surgery in the US. And then the woman with breasts named after a country (and you thought they only had their own postcode) offers some advice for viewers:
“I would have thought going to America would be the best place. That they’d look after you well. But I would advise anyone not to go to America – always have it done in England. You can’t beat the NHS.”

Miley Cyrus Is A Person Of Wal-Mart: Photos Of Miley’s Supermarket Range
MILEY Cyrus was at an Asda in Spondon, Derbyshire, to promote her new range of outwear for George At Asda. Wal-Mart owns Asda. Miley is a person of Walmart. The range is called Miley And Max; the Max part being a reference to Max Azria, which may be a made-up name. Sadly, kids, you can’t get the real Miley look which consists of tight gusset gear and a splash of flesh and side boob. She’s getting older. The teen stage is cashing in before it all goes pear shaped…

Gordon Ramsay’s Open Letter To His Mother In Law In Full: Deliciously Sour Stuff
GORDON Ramsay, the panicky botulism-faced TV chef, has written an open letter to his wife Tana Ramsay mother Greta Hutcheson not to sever links to his family.
Last month Ramsay sacked his father–in-law Chris from the family firm. Now Ramsay, vain to the last, writes a letter to his mother-in-law.
(No not his mum. He contacts her in public by phone – or not.)
Says he:
“This has to be one of the most painful letters I’ve ever had to write. Listening to Tana in floods of tears reading your letter… asking that she stays away from her family is so awfully wrong.”

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo: Hollywood Remakes It Better
NIELS Arden Oplev, director of the orgianl screen verison of Stieg Larsson’s The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo Oplev is not happy with the Hollywood version. For one thing, he’s not directing it. For another Noomi Rapace is unlikely to reprise her role as Lisbeth Salander. Rooney Mara is looking to gt the nod. He tells Word & Film:
“The only thing that’s annoying to me is that the Sony PR machine is trying to make their Lisbeth Salander the lead Lisbeth Salander. That’s highly unfair because Noomi has captured this part and it should always be all her. That’s her legacy in a way I can’t see anyone competing with.
“I hope she gets nominated for an Oscar. I know a lot of Academy members have seen the film and liked it because every time I go to LA I meet so many people who have seen my version of it. Even in Hollywood there seems to be a kind of anger about the remake, like, ‘Why would they remake something when they can just go see the original?’ Everybody who loves film will go see the original one.
“It’s like, what do you want to see, the French version of La Femme Nikita or the American one? You can hope that Fincher does a better job.”

Pride Of Britain 2010 Photos: Celebs Validate The Real People
THE Pride of Britain Awards 2010. A mawkish, sentimental event to show celebrities doing their bit for the orchestrated care industries. It was created in the era of the mourn porn conductor-in-chief Tony Blair, who went on to say that the NHS was the “pride of the country“.
This made-for-TV pride is for “unsung” heroes. These heroes are ‘ordinary’, as presenter Carol Vorderman says:
No winners are more deserving. Unlike most awards shows these days, they’re not celebrities, but REAL stars – unsung heroes of all ages, whose inspiring stories take your breath away.
And what better to give “REAL” stars perspective – oh for the authenticity of poverty, real breasts and humdrum lives – than loads and loads of jobbing celebs? They are here to validate your ordinariness.

Susan Boyle: Lou Reed’s Perfect Day Is A Cynical Christmas Hymn To God Bothering
LOU Reed is directing the video of Susan Boyle’s Perfect Day. It’s Boyle’s cynical Christmas hymn. Boyle’s shtick is to take any song and make it churchy. Next year, Boyle will sing The Ace of Spades in the Methodist fashion, followed by an organ-driven version of Smack My Bitch Up.
Scene 1: Boyle walks slowly towards the end of a jetty. The waters are calm. Will she dive in? Is this an advert for Campbell’s soup?
The glinting twilight and moving clouds are like a scene when the hero has just died and the cameras make out his soul has lifted up to Heaven.
Scene 2: Boyle is now engulfed in cloud. She is floating. Each note ends with a ring of a bell. Boyle is no longer just a sign of God’s love for humanity – she is the authentic voice of Mother Nature. She is Gaia thanking us for a perfect day in the bosom of her voice.
