Pictures: Carl Barat Sings The The Rime of the Modern Mariner
THERE was Sadie Frost at a screening of The Rime of the Modern Mariner, part of the East London Film Festival, at St Anne’s Church in Limehouse, east London. Also there was Carl Barat. The film is “a documentary exploring the extraordinary culture, community and folklore of the London Docks accompanied by a live score”. Barat plays the music. No sign of pop f*ckwit Pete Doherty. But it was a lovely day in East London, so we expected him inside at any moment…

Dick & Dom And The Death Of Barry Chuckle
EARLIER in readiness for the London Marathon we met up with Dick & Dom. Both had the shiny eyes of youth and high-jinx. A likeable pair.
But when we told Old Mr Anorak who they were he referred to them as cross between the Chuckle Brothers and Ant ‘n’ Dec – and no patch on one Simon Dee, much less two.

Restore Stephen Baldwin: He Wants Your Job And A 421
STEPHEN Baldwin, last seen speaking through Alex Reid’s head on Celebrity Big Brother, needs your help. On Restore Stephen Baldwin, the star of the Sex Monster appears to explain why he needs YOUR help. Forget rescuing Katie Price from Egypt and little staving babies. Baldwin needs you. Baldwin might be the cause Peaches Geldof has been looking for.
Verily, it is Baldwin:
Dane Bowers: “The water’s still cold”
Stephen Baldwin: “The hot water?”
But before restoration, Baldwin needs a Job:
“Everyone knows that God restored Job, but do they understand the mechanism of his restoration? Job was restored by the people. By ‘All Who Knew Him’. This website was created to see a rebirth of that mechanism.”
Baldwin is third person man in need. Says he:
“He has been publicly ridiculed and insulted by people who think that he has been abandoned by God.”

The British Inspiration Awards Back By CLOWN In Pictures
TO the Brewery for the British Inspiration Awards, to celebrate businesses and individuals who make Britain great. Presented by, er, Richard Madeley. The awards have been backed by Gordon Brown, David Cameron and Nick Clegg – politics own Three Stooges, an act tantalisingly one banana skin away from being funny. We call them CLOWN. David Attenborough, Damien Hirst, Ian McKellen and Alexander McQueen are all nominees. We spotted designer Gareth Pugh, Anthony McPartlin (left) and Declan Donnelly, Blue Peter presenter and Glastonbury Festival organiser Michael Eavis. No sign CLOWN…

High time for a leaders’ debate with Kate, Peter and Alex Reid’s respective chests. But for now, news that Peter is in Dubai running on the sands and cement with his shirt off.

Bea Arthur’s McDonald’s Golden Grill And Other Sexy Peta Ads
BEA Arthur might be deader than a Ronald McDonald’s eyes but she has returned for the great beyond to support Peta and to slam McDonalds.
Arthur is not at all happy at McDonald’s factory farms where batter is injected via hen’s beaks with a meat-like substance.
The Golden Grills is back…

Jennifer Lopez Was Fat And Funny In Us Weekly
JENNIFER Lopez wants to show you her post-babies body. She want to tell you how she didn’t care she was flabby. So little did she care that she kept right on not caring until her belly was tighter than a priest’s cover story. She tells Us Weekly:
“I remember my flabby belly hanging out right after I gave birth. I kind of laughed and said to Marc, ‘Look, baby! Isn’t this crazy?’ I just didn’t care.”
Fat and funny. It just feels right. Later:
“I look back at pictures from that time, and I’m like ‘Oh, god, I was fat. I was still heavy eight months out!'”

In Pictures: Lindsay Lohan And Sam Ronson’s Coachella Spat
WANT to see photos of Samantha Ronson spitting in the face of her former lover Lindsay Lohan at the Coachella music festival? Rumours are that she spat, allegedly, in her face in the way your aunty does to remove bits of dried Toffee Crisp from your varnished skin. Here’s what Lohan said on Twitter:
“Fun @coachella but tonight @ my friernds bday party, @samantharonson spit in my face and left w/ @mileycyrus’s ex. (sic)”.
no images were found
Spitting is the new kissing. Really. Says Sam Ronson:
“Guess what didn’t happen tonight.”
Dunno. But I’d blame it on Nick Clegg.

Boy George Struck By Eyjafjallajokull Volcano And Manchester United’s Bottom
CELEBRITIES have been lining up to patronise the Eyjafjallajokull volcano and given the spewing of millions of tons of ash, gas and fire some much – needed drama. But Simon Cowell’s mum and Peter Andre are not enough for some hacks, and Metro’s Andrei Harmsworth (any relation?) opts for the ruse of weaving the volcano into a celebrity story, this about singer Boy George. Enjoy:
“It appears the volcanic ash has gonw to Boy George’s head..”

Pictures: Gemma Arterton’s Disappearance Of Alice Creed In Soho
WE spotted Gemma Arterton at what we were assured was a “special” screening of the Disappearance of Alice Creed at the Soho Hotel in London. Recently we spotted Gemma at Southampton University. Old Mr Anorak, our patron, says we should spot Gemma more often, perhaps in her local butchers, public library or swimming baths. OMA says it’s all about given the people what they want, or would like to have. And if we can promote reading, then so much the better…

Pictures: Katie Price ‘Separated’ From Alex Reid And New Home
KATIE Price beams from the cover of OK!, her little Desi Arnez and Lucille Ball on her knees, and Harvey to one side. Katie’s face is so soft focused she qualifies as a new form of cloud. The headline says: “KATIE AND ALEX – SEPARATED.”
Inside and Katie says she and Alex Reid are “separated” whenever he is working away from her.
We meet Katie inside her new “BRAND NEW” Surrey mansion. Only, it’s not new. It’s old and been done up in flowers and a collection of “huge, new black-and-white prints” of Katie and Alex. There will b a print on the a wall in “every room”. Sleep tight, Junior. Nighty-night Princess. If that’s not their thing, then there are “teddy bear likenesses of Katie and Alex”.
Continues after gallery:

OK! sits down with Katie and tells her of rumours that she and Alex’s romance is “on the rocks”.

Susan Boyle: The Woman I Was Born to Be And Nick Clegg
SUSAN Boyle Watch: Anorak’s at-a-glance look at Susan Boyle in the news:
The Sun’s Jane Moore tells her readers:
“Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg is the Susan Boyle of politics.”
He’s going to come second and make millions?
It was a re-run of Britain’s Got Talent, on the same television channel – with Nick Clegg in the role of Susan Boyle.
Boyle will sleep with “no more than 30” women?
The New York Mag says Boyle will tell her story in a book called The Woman I Was Born To Be:
“I’m writing this book to try to show that you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, and I hope it will benefit other people.”
Josh Duboff notes:
And if that is the kind of metaphor to be expected in the book, I think it’s safe to say that she is not going to surprise us with Faulker-like prose to match her Dion-like pipes.

In Pictures: The Disappearance of Alice Creed Premiere
DID you see Gemma Arterton arriving at Southampton University for the UK Premiere of her new film The Disappearance of Alice Creed? We did. And now so can you. No red carpet. but lots of students. The film stars Eddie Marsan and Martin Compston as the other two parts of the three-hander. The two men kidnap Arterton. They keep her in a flat. The plot promises “twist after twist”. It delivers. Good plot and tight acting. Oh, and Arterton is stripped. A winner…

The Real Reason Mel Gibson And Oksana Grigorieva Split
MEL Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva are no longer an item. Mel is, incidentally, still married to wife-of-29-years, Robyn – mother to seven of Mel’s eight children. She filed for divorce but is has not ben granted. Can Mel make it so that he adheres to his hardcore Catholic beliefs, having his wafer and eating it, with blinis and a kosher vodka?
But before that Oksana Grigorieva, has something to say. And she sounds not enough unlike Peter Andre, who told us:
“When you see the whole story you’ll realise why I lost all [my] confidence. And I do think it will come out eventually, just not from me.”

Green Kelly Osbourne Shows Us Her Eco 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air
KELLY Osbourne is using her new Closer magazine column to say, “I love my wheels.” Kelly’s got a new 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air. “It’s my pride and joy,” says Kelly.
And – yup – this is the same Kelly Osbourne who told Closer readers:
“In some ways, LA is really behind the UK in terms of recycling and being green. Hardly anyone uses their own shopping bags at the supermarket and everyone drinks bottled water. But I’m going to make a huge effort this year. I’ve been using a water filter jug instead of buying water and Luke and I try to walk places instead of driving or we use our electric scooter.”
Or the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air – 17.1 mpg. Not available in green…

Angelina Jolie’s Horror Skirt And Jennifer Aniston Saves A Kitten
IS this baby Number 7 for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie? The National Enquirer wonders. The story of the story is ringed in red ink: a large dotted circle about Jolie’s abdomen. Is she pregnant?
Well, if she is it’s preferable to the alternatives that she’s putting on weight, wearing a bad skirt?

Dignified Peter Andre, picks up on the earlier story of Princess TenaLadyMee’s “black eye”, which turns out to be smudged mascara and not an overdose of fake lashes. Only, there is front-page “shock at injured tot”.
Of that smudged mascara, Peter Andre says: “This isn’t true.” So, it was bruise? Chocolate? Touche Eclat?
Katie Price’s Career As Jordan (NSFW)
No, this is a toddler with a bruise. And make that brusies. As the Star says on its front page, the body and face are brusied. It’s either more than one bruise or a huge swelling.

Eyjafjallajokull Volcano Is Adopted By Dan Snow And David Cameron’s Big Society
LACKING from the Eyjafjallajokull Volcano story was the celebrity element. But news is that old rockers Rick Parfitt and Francis Rossi of Status Quo have been forced to plan a new route home from a Russia tour due to the travel problems caused ash from by the Icelandic volcano. But is that enough? No, what we need is TV show, a TV presenter with a cause. Step forward daddy’s boy Dan Snow her to launch a “Dunkirk-style mission” to bring British ferry passengers across the Channel in a fleet of RIBs.
How many in afleet? Five.
Pictures: Global Warming Caused Eyjafjallajokull Volcano
Snow presents such telly shows as 20th Century Battlefields and Beating Retreat.
Benedict Brogan, the Telegraph’s Deputy Editor then seizes on Snow’s optunism to make his own case for David Cameroan:
Dan Snow’s Dunkirk spirit is what David Cameron’s Big Society is all about
The TV historian’s swashbuckling initiative, intended initially to help a friend, encapsulates everything Dave has been banging on about: self-reliance, group action, charitable motive, improvisation, mucking in, a dash of can-do and a spot enthusiastic amateurism.
So, it’s not about a TV presenter grandstanding and promoting himself?
