Charlotte Church And Gavin Henson’s OK! Engagement And Split
CHARLOTTE Church and Gavin Henson are no longer Wales’s orangey answer to Vicky and Day-vid Beckham. Ruby, two, and one-year-old Dexter will never share a showbiz magazine photospread with mum and dad.
Six weeks ago, Charlotte and Gavin announced their engagement in OK! magazine.
It was Charlotte who told us:
“He started saying, ‘We’ve been together five years, we’ve had good times and hard times but it’s mostly been good. I think we are meant to be together for the rest of our lives’.
“I was a bit confused. He never says anything like that. Then he went down on one knee and said, ‘Will you marry me?’ I was absolutely joyous. I was so pleased.”
Gavin picked his moment:
“When she’s hungover and feeling a bit sketchy she’s a lot more touchy-feely and lovey so I thought she’ll definitely say yes then.”
The big question: how will OK! fill the pages where Gav and Char’s wedding would have been? Suggestions, please…

Sex And The City 2 London Premiere Pictures: Sarah Jessica Parker’s Royal Weave
TO the London Premiere of Sex And The City 2 – twice as good as Sex And The City 1. Sex And The City 2 will put lead in your writer’s pencil and show us that if Sarah Jessica Parker can be a sex symbol, then so can you, my shabby, slack-jawed friend. Cynthia Nixon, Kim Catrall and Kristin Davis looked on as Sarah Jessica Parker put John Travolta’s weave on her head, (unwoven and bedazzled with ‘London diamonds’ of pigeon appreciation).

Also there: Chris Noth, Amanda Holden dressed a demented fairy, the ubiquitous Jamie Winstone wearing the old ball and chain, Tess Daly, Daisy Lowe dressed as a middle-aged divorcee, Peaches Geldof in tope (skin), Louis Spence going down on Emma Bunton and loadsa fans…

JLS Bring Rays Of Sunshine With Aston Merrygold’s Back Flip: Photos
JLS were grandstanding their pure hearts as band members Jonathan Benton, Marvin Humes, Oritse Williams and Aston Merrygold – gerraload of that back flip! – met seriously ill children Aimie Pryke, 15, Shannon Right, 15, Chelsea Nye, 9, Lauren Barrow, 12, Kian Jones, 7, Emily Bailey, 13, and Serhap Vysal, 14.
The JLS photo opp. was arranged by Rays of Sunshine, a charity which grants wishes for seriously ill children in the UK between the ages of 3 and 18. And you know what?
Look at those cynical kids realising that they are mere footstools on whish JLS can stand to reach that little bit closer to the stars. Kids can be so cynical.
Everyone else thinks it’s great that what would have just another day trapped on Earth in a life less than perfect was made a bit different and a bit fun…

In Pictures National Movie Awards 2010: Winners, Losers and Tom Cruise’s Hair
ALL the pictures of the winners, losers and arrivals at the 2010 National Movie Awards at the Royal Festival Hall. Yep, movie awards. What nation is this, America? It’s film, or if you are certain vintage, it’s the pictures or the flicks.
And calling it the National Movie Awards 2010 implies the National Movie Awards 2011 is not a done deal. If it were, the do would be called The Moves, or The Namards. Instead, it’s bit of TV pap, dreamt up by marketing departments that gave Twilight and award for the Most Anticipated Movie of the Summer – let’s hear it for the hype department!
On a brighter note, the awards allowed us to see Tom Cruise wearing hair last seen in the window of Mr Jeffrey’s gentleman’s outfitters and sport his trophy like a Little Tommy Gun.

2010 National Movie Awards In Pictures: Twilight, Tom Cruise’s Nylon And Robert Pattinson’s Hair Sads
THE red carpet at the 2010 National Movie Awards at the Royal Festival Hall was a chance to see Tom Cruise audition for a roll as a less lifelike Ken doll, Chipmunk extend his hand gesture (and you, pal) and Orando Bloom look less pretty rather then more manly in a beard. Now we deliver the pictures of the do proper.
Kylie Minogue smiled, Emma Watson looked young and Peter Facinelli won the Best Fantasy and Most Anticipated Summer Movie awards for The Twilight Saga:New Moon.
Yep, he won an award for being hyped. What. The. ****. We were just about getting over the use of the world “movie” – it’s film – when Facinelli scooped his gong for the PR and marketing departments sterling work in spending money.
Here are the pictures – which everyone get in…
Oh, and look out for Robert Pattinson’s hair sads. RIP.

In Pictures: Orlando Bloom And Chipmunk’s C-Word Present The 2010 National Movie Awards
BEFORE the pictures from the 2010 National Movie Awards at the Royal Festival Hall, London, a look at Orlando Bloom (the beard!) Konnie Huq (she made it earlier), Tom Cruise (hair by…) and Gwyneth Paltrow (leathered) and Chipmunk, worker of the hardest working hands in showbiz. Chipmunk’s hands are talented but he seems to be going for the arthritis gig, or is it cancer, as he contorts his hand into a big “C”. The betting at Anorak is that Chipmunk’s hands are not stuck like this but an attempt by him to create a new hand gesture. This is no easy thing, but top marks to chip for trying. Anorak expects to see the “C” replace the Kenko roast w*nk shake at football matches…

In Pictures: The Reformed Faces Then And Now
THE Faces are reformed. Ronnie Wood, Kenney Jones and Ian McLagan are back. Former Sex Pistol Glen Matlock replaces Ronnie Lane, who died in 1997 of MS. And all is good. What’s that you say? Where’s Rod Stewart, the lead singer? Where, indeed? Whatever happened to him? Last seen, Rod was scaling a model’s legs. He should reach the top by 2015. The good news is that the lead winger replacing Rod is… not Small Faces frontman, Steve Marriott. The new frontman is Mick Hucknall. It not easy to make Ronnie look good – but the lads might just have cracked it…

Katie Price’s New Man And Peter Andre’s Bergamot And Mint
WANT to know about Jordan’s “Secret Other Man”? Want to know about the “third man in Kate’s marriage”? The Star’s front page promises much. And readers familiar with disingenuous headlines will wonder if Alex Reid has name for his little Toffee Crisp? Maybe he calls it Peter, or Big Andre?
Inside, and wonder now more as the third man can be revled as…Dane Bowers, the singer who dated Katie and used her baby churner as a foot muff on video.

Anti-Fur Gwyneth Paltrow At Furry Louis Vuitton’s New London Shop Opening
WE spotted Gwyneth Paltrow attending the opening of the new Louis Vuitton store on New Bond Street, London. Paltrow does not wear fur. LV loves fur. Remember when Paltrow wore fur for Tod’s and then apologised to Peta:
“That was awkward, and I’m glad you asked, because I do not wear fur at all.”
Apart from when…
“It was a day-long photo shoot on a boat near Capri, and there were all sorts of poses behind and draped a stole around my shoulder. I didn’t pay much attention to it and when I noticed it was fur, I assumed it was fake fur, but did not ask, so it’s my fault. I was very surprised when they ended up using that one shot out of hundreds for the centerpiece of the Tod’s ads. I know it’s not a great excuse, but I hope you and your members understand.”
Here’s Paltrow at LV. And here’s a gallery of LV’s fur range…
The leather shoes are her own.

Chanelle Hayes And Jack Tweed Interview: And Baby Makes 2
JACK Tweed and Chantelle Hayes are “The World’s Most Shocking Celebrity Couple”. Yes, they are a celebrity couple, but are they shocking? Anorak took the OK! cover to the streets and asked people if they were shocked that a jobbing Mr Jade Goody and a Big Brother strumpet were together?
Big Brother: Victoria Beckham Lookalike Chanelle Hayes Overdoses
The most popular words offered in reply were:
“Who?”; “No”; “Osama bin Laden is shagging Ronan Keating?!”; “Couple of what?”; “Ok, £50 quid and I’ll give you a signed photo Prince Andrew in his panties”; and “Why read OK! when you can read Anorak?” (shucks, thanks).

Sarah Ferguson Alleges That Prince Andrew Doesn’t Just Play Golf And Shag: World Shocked
YOU cannot but feel sorry for Prince Andrew. One minute he’s a feckless amateur golfer jetting about the world eying up totty, his biggest worry keeping a decent side parting and not getting spotted staring your girlfriend’s breasts as you talk to him.
The nest moment his former wife has opened her trap door and turned him into a man worth paying for, a figure of influence who actually holds down a job.

“Look after me and I’ll look after you. You’ll get it back tenfold.”

Hitler Does Jesse James Downfall Parody: The Sandra Bullock And Michelle McGee Interview
MORE on Jesse James, the self-styled Vanilla Gorilla and estranged Mr Sandra Bullock, who wants to tell us that the picture of him with the Nazi salute was a joke. Hitler is soon going to come out of retirement to do a parody of Jesse James’ Downfall.
Says James:
“I could tell by the look on my face it was a joke that was funny then, probably for a minute, but then looking at it in the context of now and in my life, it’s not funny… There’s not a racist bone in my body.”

All Aboard Cliff Parisi’s EastEnders’ Wedding Bus
CLIFF Parisi is marrying a woman on the cover of OK! magazine. Cliff, who plays idiotic mechanic Minty on EastEnders, is pictured pulling clownish smile in the manner of the Great Stupendo on a bouncy castle.
Cliff may well have fallen victim to Soap Syndrome, whereby the actor becomes indistinguishable from the character that led him up fame’s sticky pole. OK! is happy to indulge the confusion between fact and fiction by telling of a “POLICE DRAMA” at the “EAST END BASH”.

Sleazy Ronan Keating, Francine Cornell And Jan Moir’s Strange Column
BOYZONE’S Ronan Keating is linked to the blonde Francine Cornell and the web erupts in angry reaction to Jan Moir’s non column in the Daily Mail.
Keating’s “sleazy” heterosexual lifestyle has yet to be condemned by Moir, as so rightly it should be. Anorak has spoken with leading lights of the gay media, and all are dismayed. Says one hack, a leader writer at the Telegraph:
Whatever the cause of sex is, it is not, by any yardstick, a natural one. Let us be absolutely clear about this. We look to Jan Moir to offer us an explanation so we can best make sense of the perversion.
