American Idol Kris Allen In Haiti, In Pictures
THANKS to American Idol winner Kris Allen, Haiti is back in the news. Allen was pictured with a young Haitian girl during a UN Foundation visit to recovery and rebuilding programs in Port-au-Prince.

The reality is that whatever breaks up the day and improves the lives of the dispossessed can only be good…

THE live EastEnders show saw Bradley Branning fall from a roof and spill claret all over the frog.

Katie Price And Peter Andre’s Public Row Over Princess Tiamii’s Hair In A Test Card Special: Pictures
KATIE Price and Peter Andre’s new conversation piece is “paedo” picture suject Princess Tiamii. Having seen her painted face, fans of watching two-year-olds on the telly can see her getting her hair straightened.
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.
Katie Price’s Career As Jordan (NSFW)
Which is which is a moot point. Should the glue from Princess’s eyelash drip onto her face and Katie overdo the felt tip eyebrows, mum can be daughter and daughter can be mum. Zeros and Xs. Xs and Zeros.

Kerry Katona Sheds Her Husband And Takes KeBabies Abroad
KERRY Katona has dumped husband Mark Croft? The Sun says it’s so. Kerry has dumped him before. Can you dump someone more than once. Yes, you can, if you’re Kerry Katona.
The paper says Kerry “fled” the couple’s home, taking the four little Kebabies with her. It’s a fact because the Daily Mail’s “insider” tells us in the most ambiguous words imaginable:
“It’s fair to say Kerry and Mark are certainly not together at the moment.”
All we want is everyone to be fair…

Liam Gallagher’s North London Tantrum On Twitter At Peter Kay’s Northern ‘Knobhead’
LIAM Gallagher – no, not the one who wrote the Oasis hit songs and sing-along lyrics and sang the songs: that’s Noel Gallagher – was out in public with grown ups having a spat with Peter Kay.
Gallagher was called on stage at the music AGM to accept a gong for selling loads of units. The Oasis album (What’s the Story?) Morning Glory won the Best Album Of The Last Thirty Years. It will be a full ten years until the album can win the best Album of The Last 40 Years award and Liam Gallagher can be summoned to a moribund procession of reality telly singers and PR dross with his brand of brattishness.
You can buy the gong he accepted on stage. Gallagher gone to the show and sat in the seats and waited until he was called, Liam was out to prove he was ever the rebel.

‘Emotional’ Susan Boyle ‘Enchanted’ By Man At Nice Airport
SUSAN Boyle was not at the BRITs. She was at Nice airport. She’s on the cover of the Daily Express, smiling and looking happy over a red tray on which are sat two white cups, a few opened pots of milk-like substance and a bit of bun. Yes, two cups…
Boyle’s on her way back from Italy’s Sanremo Festival and “with one hand held pensively to her face and the other clasped by a concerned friend, it looks as if Susan Boyle was on the verge of another crisis.”
Susan Boyle’s Mars Bar Makes Her A Victim Of Media Manipulation
Well, no it doesn’t – unless you work for the tabloids which eye Boyle in the same way a spiteful mother watches a rival’s child being fed sweets, praise and fizzy pop and hopes they throw a brilliant tantrum.
