NOT since Anderson Cooper showed up in public with the muscle-bound manager of a successful New York gay bar has such a fuss been made over the sexuality of a public feature.

Waterski. Jetski. Whatever. What we want to know is did dating Frank Lampard keep you going? Well, Christine, did it?

“It was really tough though the water was freezing and having to get up after every fall was exhausting.”

Yadda-yadda-yadda. And Frank. You were thinking of Frank all the time?

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported me along the way, it really kept me going out there.”

Pink Floyd Don’t Want Any New Fans And May Refuse Royalties

PINK Floyd has decided not to woo any news fans to their music by winning a High Court ruling preventing EMI from selling individual tracks on the web.

Thanks to the ruling, new internet-savy fans won’t be able to hear only the best bits but will need to download the entire album and fast forward to the best bits.

Pink Floyd say single downloads compromise the artistic integrity of their works. To paraphrase the band, how can you enjoy the best bits if you don’t eat your meat?

Look out for Pink Floyd handing back all royalties earned from single sales and airplay… Or not.

Amber Rose Is the Heather Mills Sex Bot: Photo Gallery Evidence

NIGHT time in Hollywood, California, and brattish popstar Kanye West’s robot lover Amber Rose is out and about. She looks so life-like. But sex robots can be so. But on whom has she been modelled? We looked. We watched. And then it came to us. This isn’t Amber Rose. This is the Heather Mills sexbot. If so, a question, readers: were any Beatles hurt during its making? We should be told…

Boyzone Remember Stephen Gately And Ronan Keating’s Hair: In Pictures

TO the Boyzone concert at the royal Albert Hall, they came to remember Stephen Gately – a career in pictures. Rumours of the death of Ronan Keating’s hair seem premature. Recently, Keating has been wearing a version of Donald’s Trump’s hair tsunami (TM), albeit with the wave gelled down. But at the concert the hair was fluffy and doing an impression of TinTin rowing in a light breeze. Also on stage was pro-celebrity ice dancer Mikey Graham, Coronation Street actor Keith Duffy and mobile adult education reading room Shane Lynch. We swooned. And took photos:

Cheryl Cole’s ‘Sick’ Revenge Shag And ‘Laid Up’ Waiting for Ashley

CHERYL COLE is “SICK”. This is good news for the nation’s men who are hoping for Cheryl’s revenge shag on Ashley Cole. Most would have just settled for squiring the “nation’s sweetheart” but if she wants to be sick, that’s her prerogative.

Reading on in the Star we learn that the revenge shag might have to wait because Cheryl “has been hit by bronchitis” and will not be appearing on the Jonathan Ross show.

Ashley Cole’s Women (Alleged)

This was the show, also featuring Charlotte Church, which led to the headline:

Cheryl Cole and Charlotte Church’s feud is set to reignite when they appear on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross this Friday.

MARK Owen, the Take That fallen possum, says he shagged 10 women while dating his wife-to-be Emma. He was seeing Neva Hanley for around five years – right up until his wedding. So he says.

Abnormal Miley Cyrus Rivals Jennifer Aniston’s Quote Of The Year

MILEY Cyrus is not like you. She is like Jennifer Ansiton, who told us that she had to go on  holiday to Mexico with Gerard Butler because:

“These people survive on us coming down and spending money and coming here to these beautiful places. It sort of made sense to sort of say ‘Hey, let’s help out Mexico.’”

Miley Cyrus (NSFW)

Anyhow, here’s Miley Curus growing into pretty much what you thoght she’d be:

While filming The Last Song on Georgia’s Tybee Island last year, Miley Cyrus couldn’t help but fall for her costar Liam Hemsworth. (On the Oscars red carpet Sunday, Cyrus, 17, confirmed that she and Hemsworth, 19, are dating and that “maybe” she’s in love)…

“Working with Miley was a alot easier than I thought it was going to be,” Hemsworth admits to the magazine. “From the first time we [met], It was like I had known her before.”

Miley Cyrus (NSFW)

His famous girlfriend adds, I think we’re both deeper than normal people–what they think and how they feel.”

It’s you normal people that help Miley be the abnormal person she is today…

Sarah Jesscia Parker Presents The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills: In Pictures

SARAH Jessica Parker, Matthew McConaughey and the unreal Real housewives of New York were at Bravo’s 2010 Upfront Party at Skylight Studio in New York City. To give you an idea of the kind of telly Bravo broadcasts, know that it’s considering a show called Room Service, a one-hour comedy/drama hybrid about a smart hotel that runs a male escort service on the side.

Also following the Real Housewives of Atlanta, New York, Orange County and New Jersey, look out for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The show is getting progressively less real. Next up is the Real Housewives of A Teenage Adolescent’s Imagination, in which all the mums with made-up names have ever more gigantic bosoms, massive hair and slutty expressions and end every episode by exploding.

Also to be shown: Miami Social Club, Million Dollar Decorators and Pregnant in Heels.

Take That’s Mark Owen Admits Shagging 10 Women: Neva Hanley In Pictures

DID you know that Take That singer Mark Owen – the one who looks like the Olsen sisters’ little bother – has had 10 affairs? Yeah, John Terry, Owen, that little streak of nothing who looks he lives in a tree on a eucalyptus plantation has pulled 10 women. How many did you manage, JT?

Pathetic. And you had the nerve to bill yourself as the captain of England. Shame. On. You.

Pictures: Mark Owen And The Women

Owen is “a serial love cheat”.

Mark, 38, broke the news of his cheating to Emma, mum of their two kids, at their London home yesterday. He said: “She loves me and I let her down. I’m really sorry.”

Amanda Holden ‘Catches’ Jade Goody’s High-Profile Cancer

JADE Goody Day, formerly Mothers’ Day, approaches, and Amanda Holden wants us all to know that she “feared she’d ‘die like Jade Goody’”

What, loved by millions and lamented in a televised funeral? Don’t worry, Amanda. It’s very unlikely. But cancer is no joke and we turn to hear Holden’s tale of woe:

Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden yesterday said she feared she might die after a cancer scare. The actress, 39, was rushed to hospital when a doctor on the set of her ITV show Fantasy Lives found a lump in November.

Shells been a midwife, a singer and a self-aggrandising pain in the arse. Now she’s Jade Goody.

Gary Busey’s Red Carpet CIA Horror Video

IT’S Hollywood actor Gary Busey on the red capret. The teeth. The eye. The fringe. The gurn. The teeth. Gawd! The teeth!!! Our interviewer takes a step back. And then things get interesting…

As our pal 14 puts it:

Whenever Gary Busey shows up to an event or agrees to an interview, you can expect an erratic tempest of nonsensical utterances, unsettling glares, unpredictable outbursts followed by bear hugs and then more unpredictable outbursts, and best of all, the spewing forth of didactic gibberish through a mouthful of clattering teeth.

Farrah Fawcett More Controversial In Death Than Life As Charlie’s Angels Fight Heats Up

WELL, Farrah Fawcett is certainly more controversial in death than she was in life. Amid the hubbub over the Academy Awards’ boneheaded decision to omit the beloved actress from its In Memorium segment Sunday night pipes up Farrah friend Alana Stewart to refute Kate Jackson’s claim that she (Stewart) and Ryan O’Neal stopped Kate from visiting Farrah in the final months of her life.

Alana, who is billed as “Farrah’s best friend,” accompanied Farrah to Germany for her ultimately unsuccessful cancer treatments and held the camera for the verite footage of her fight to beat the disease.

After Farrah sunk into the final stage of her illness, Stewart reportedly held up production of the NBC tabloid special based on her original film, demanding more money and a producer’s credit, then was the first to cash in with a quickie book about her best friend.

Live From Studio Five: Shooting The Messenger And Boiling The Viewing

A ROW of sort has broken out between Ian Wright and Melinda Messengers, two clown-faced nodding heads on Live From Studio Five until Messenger walked away.

Wright said:

“Melinda would drown us out so many times and it was annoying. People don’t want to turn on to see people arguing.”

Messenger’s agent says:

“Melinda did not renew her contract because the working relationship with Ian Wright became intolerable.”

For those of you who’ve not seen the show, this is what Richard Woolfe, channel controller at Five, said when it launched:

“This is news – but not as you know it. It’s a chatty, forthright spirited magazine…Every other broadcaster’s schedule at this time is totally predictable and I believe there’s a huge opportunity for a show like this which will shake things up, put Five on the map and get viewers talking about the channel.”

And then it started. And we realised it wasn’t a telly show but part of the Government plan to get people off prescription drugs. Here was the answer: sit the masses in front of Wright, Messenger and Kate Walsh and watch as they reach a vegetative state. The ambition was to make the viewers into “cabbages” but the show has exceeded all expectation and we can revels that nine out of ten viewers made it to “boiled cabbages”.

Jennifer Aniston Shines For Gerard Butler In London: Pictures

JENNIFER Aniston has new film out, The Bounty Hunter, and has arrived in the UK to promote it. This being Aniston, the tabloid rules state she must be embroiled in a love story.

The impression is augments hy her being glowing on the cover of W magazine. Aniston is sat on Gerard Butler’s lap. That is Butler and not some animatronic version of the Scots actor. Aniston looks like she’s been weeping at her dead puppy’s grave. Butler looks like an extra from a shoot-em-up video game.

Jesus Luz Talks About The Univese Called Madonna: Interview

JESUS Luz is not only Madonna’s personal Jesus he is also a man with a mind. Get this of when he and Madonna met:

“I believe in the force of attraction. It was two energies that met, two minds that connected.”

One mind was his; the other’s hers.

“With all this attention, it is a real temptation to feel superior. So, for me, it’s really good that my friends says, ‘You are still a cool guy.”

You want more from the man who remains “very down to earth” despite dating Madonna and being named Jesus? Well, there is more, because Grazia is talking with the model and DJ.

Madonna And Jesus Luz Create A Baby Quicker Than Malawi: Very NSFW

“I always liked being a relationship. It’s difficult to meet a young girl who has a mature head.”

So he’s dating a mature girl with a young head – a work in progress.

But what of that modelling? Jesus says that when he met Madonna on a shoot for W magazine he knew he’d made it. It was his first shoot for a “renowned” magazine. A door had opened.

“I just did what I had to do. I was more thinking, ‘What can I do to get the next job.”

Then he started dating Madonna and “his modelling career is thriving”.

“A DJ for less than a year, he is already playing some of Brazil’s biggest clubs.”

Says Jesus:

“Many times I have asked God why he has given me so much. But I think that’s what happens in anyone’s life when the universe conspires to make it happen.”

It’s good when the universe is on your side. That’s the universe called Madonna…
