The Only Way Is Essex stars for I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!


Four stars of 'The Only Way Is Essex' are fighting for a place in the 'I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!' jungle.
Gemma Collins, Jessica Wright, Ferne McCann and Chloe Sims are said to be desperate to follow in the footsteps of their former co-stars Joey Essex and Mark Wright - who both secured their own spin-off shows after taking part in the ITV reality series.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "It's becoming really competitive between the TOWIE girls. They all really want to do it and are busy working away at their bikini bodies.
"Plus they're excited about the prospect of getting their own show - like Mark and Joey."
Filming in the Australian jungle is set to kick off next month, when the current series of TOWIE will have come to an end, meaning all four beauties will be available to give living in the wild without any fake tan or hair extensions a shot.
Mark's sister Jess - who is dating co-star Ricky Rayment - revealed earlier this year that she was more than up for the challenge of eating creepy crawlies and performing death-defying stunts.
She said at the time: "About a year ago, I couldn't have done the jungle because I suffered from anxiety and I would have been a nervous wreck. But since then I've become such a different person and really strong, so I'd absolutely embrace the jungle and would love it."

Ed Sheeran backs X Factor’s Andrea Faustini


Ed Sheeran is backing Andrea Faustini to win 'The X Factor'.
The 'Don't' hitmaker revealed he is a huge fan of the Italian-born singer - who is competing in this year's series in Mel B's boys category - and has even messaged show boss Simon Cowell to rave about the "fantastic" contestant.
He told The Sun newspaper: "I texted Cowell about the Italian dude because I think he is fantastic."
Ed, 23, felt he could relate to the 20-year-old hopeful after he declared his love of pug dogs in his first audition by sporting a jumper emblazoned with a photo of a cute pup and the words, "I love pugs".
He explained: "I like his love of pugs as well that he gives no f**k and wears what he wants."
Another contender receiving celebrity support is pretty over 25's contestant Fleur East who is being advised by former JLS member J.B Gill - whose band were crowned runner-up of the competition in 2008 - as well as 2010 winner Matt Cardle.
She said: "Matt Cardle has messaged me, given me some encouragement.
"Also J.B. from JLS, who is a very good friend of mine, has been advising me."

Mark Wright’s Strictly Come Dancing partner choreographing wedding dance


Mark Wright's 'Strictly Come Dancing' partner is choreographing the first dance for his wedding.
The former 'The Only Way Is Essex' star is preparing to tie the knot to fiancée Michelle Keegan next year and his dance partner Karen Hauer's fiancé and fellow Strictly star Kevin Clifton has revealed he and his future wife are helping Mark to surprise Michelle with a show stopping routine for their first dance as man and wife.
Kevin - who is partnered with The Saturdays singer Frankie Bridge on the BBC One celebrity dance contest this year - explained: "Mark and I always tend to talk about wedding plans. I always ask a lot of questions because they're a bit further on than we are.
"We've met Michelle quite a few times, both Kevin and I, and hopefully we're choreographing their first dance. That will be really nice."
The 32-year-old professional dancer also admitted that Mark has asked him and Karen to include some trickier moves to impress Michelle.
He added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: "They want it to be as romantic as possible but also a crowd-pleaser. They want a couple of lifts."

Gigi Hadid laughs off Joe Jonas romance rumours


Gigi Hadid has denied rumours that she's dating Joe Jonas.
The 19-year-old model previously dated Joe's brother Nick Jonas and has more recently been linked to older sibling Joe but has now shut down the claims by insisting she's single.
The blonde beauty has laughed off suggestions that she is romantically involved with the 25-year-old singer, suggesting that everyone thinks she is in a relationship whenever she is spotted with a man.
Speaking at the Angel Ball in New York on Monday (20.10.14), she told the New York Post newspaper: "I think it's funny. I feel like every time I hang out with a guy friend, I'm dating him or I am in love or we are getting married, which is funny to me."
Nick - who is now dating former Miss USA, Olivia Culpo - was rumoured to have felt uncomfortable with the idea that his Jonas Brothers bandmate and family member was dating his former flame, as the couple had been together for an extensive period.
A source previously said: "Nick and Gigi dated several times in 2012 and 2013. It was an ongoing thing,
"The fact that Joe and Gigi are hanging out now is just strange."
However, Gigi is adamant she is single and would open up about any lover she may have, if she was seeing someone.
She added: "When I am in a relationship, I will tell everyone."

Kanye West: Kim is the dopest wife


Kanye West described Kim Kardashian West the "dopest" wife as he wished her happy birthday on Twitter.
The 'Yeezus' rapper made the declaration to his wife today (22.10.14), but he insisted his love for his spouse can't really be put into words.
Addressed to Kim - who celebrated her 34th birthday on Tuesday (21.10.14) - Kanye wrote on Twitter: "Happy Birthday baby! Thank you for being the dopest wife & mom! (sic)"
He then added: "Sometimes I feel like just saying I love you isn't strong enough to express how much I love you... (sic)"
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star also received plenty of birthday wishes from her family.
Her mother Kris Jenner posted: "Happy Birthday to my precious daughter, best friend, and partner in crime. You are the best daughter, wife and mother and you have the biggest heart. You amaze me every single day and I am so blessed to have you to love. Enjoy your special day @kimkardashian I love you! (sic)"
Kourtney Kardashian then shared on Instagram: "Even though I was the bossiest older sister she could ask for, she always loved me. Happy birthday to my sidekick. I love you. (sic)"
Khloe Kardashian also wrote: "Happy birthday sister!!!! My bestie, my confidante, the keeper of my secrets (well only if I threaten youe life) the sharer of my world. You have become an amazing woman. I couldn't be prouder or more inspired. Enjoy your birthday KiKi! I love you like a fat kid loves cake! @kimkardashian (sic)"

Mary J Blige felt connected to Amy Winehouse


Mary J. Blige "felt a connection" to Amy Winehouse.
The 'No More Drama' hitmaker has confessed she felt drawn to the singer's life and music despite never meeting the late star before she passed away from alcohol poisoning in July 2011.
Mary, 43, hailed Amy a "rare" talent and admitted she had developed a deep respect for the singer before she died aged just 27.
In an interview with Stylist magazine, she said: "I never met Amy so I never got the chance to tell her how much I loved and respected her. I was really rooting for her and wished her well: I was a huge fan.
"I felt a connection to her lyrics and to her life. She spoke the truth from a place of, 'I need help but I'm also trying to enjoy my life.'
"She was just an amazing person and so honest lyrically. Those types of artists are rare. To come along and say something like, 'You tried to make me go to rehab' was unlike anything anyone else had sung about and that was real. I respected that."
The Grammy Award-winner - who has shared her own struggle with drink, drugs and depression in the past - also opened up about the moment she decided to turn her life around and beat her depression.
She explained: "I had to make a choice when things got bad. I suffered from depression. I didn't want to die, but I didn't want to live. I knew that if I hurt myself or killed myself, my mom and my family would suffer and I didn't want to leave. I have a conscience and I had to make a choice - and I chose life."

Jennifer Lopez set for $26.3m Vegas deal


Jennifer Lopez is in talks over a $26.3 million deal to perform in Las Vegas.
The 45-year-old beauty has entered negotiations with bosses of The Axis, Planet Hollywood about receiving $350,000 per show as part of a 72-gig deal over a one or two-year period, according to gossip website TMZ.
The huge sum per performance is said to be even more than Britney Spears' $310,000 to play a show at the same venue.
But Britney is set to earn more than her fellow singer as she reportedly signed a deal to perform 96 gigs over two years, meaning she will earn $29.7 million overall.
However, neither Jennifer nor Britney can match Celine Dion's huge deal as the music legend - who is on an indefinite hiatus to care for her 72-year-old spouse René Angélil, who has throat cancer - earns an incredible $33.3 million for 70 shows a year.
Country couple Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton were recently said to have rejected a $1 million offer to at play three shows at Caesars Palace's The Colosseum in Sin City, and their reported counter offer of $1.25 million for the hat-trick of gigs, $416,000 for each show, was also turned down.
The money might come in handy for Jennifer after she splashed out $22 million on a plush four-bedroom pad in Manhattan recently, according to the New York Daily News.

Duchess Catherine pleased to ‘get out of the house’


Britain's Duchess Catherine admitted yesterday (21.10.14) she had been "looking forward to getting out of the house".
The 32-year-old royal has been suffering severe morning sickness throughout her second pregnancy, but made her first public appearance since announcing she is expecting her and Prince William's second child - her first royal engagement in 11 weeks - at the Royal Garden Hotel in central London as she greeted Singapore President Tony Tan and his wife Mary.
When Mary said she was pleased Catherine was able to make their meeting, the duchess replied: "So am I. I've been looking forward to getting out of the house, that's for sure."
The duchess - who also suffered severe morning sickness while pregnant with her and William's son Prince George, who is now 15 months old - was in fine form as she greeted the pair, and joked the weather was much worse compared to when they last met in Singapore during the royal couple's 2012 Asia-Pacific tour.
She said: "It's a bit colder than when we last met."
After meeting the pair at the hotel, William and Catherine - previously known as Kate Middleton prior to her nuptials - headed to Horse Guards Parade, where the Singapore President was greeted by Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip.
The three couples then travelled to Buckingham Palace in a carriage procession before enjoying a lunch hosted by the 88-year-old monarch, which Catherine had already planned not to attend.
Despite still suffering from severe morning sickness, a Kensington Palace statement on Monday (20.10.14) revealed her condition is "steadily improving".

James Wan to direct The Conjuring 2


James Wan is returning to direct 'The Conjuring 2'.
The director has signed a first-look deal with film studio New Line, while it's also been confirmed that the release date has been pushed back from October 2015 to 2016.
Toby Emmerich, the President of New Line, said: "We had a great experience with James on 'The Conjuring', and we give him a lot of credit for that movie working so well.
"He worked on the screenplay and came to the table with very inventive things that were not in the script and cast it fantastically well.
"Add to that his work in producing 'Annabelle', and he is one of the masters of the genre and we're happy to have him. You go through the list of possible directors of 'The Conjuring' sequel, and his is the name you stop at, which is why we tried so hard to make this work."
The original movie, which starred Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson, proved to be a huge hit at the box office, raking in more than $300 million worldwide, and has led to a demand for a second instalment.
The move comes hot on the heels of the prequel 'Annabelle', which was directed by Wan, 37, and features Annabelle Wallis, Ward Horton, and Alfre Woodard.

Paul McCartney names Kanye and Jay-Z show as greatest ever


Sir Paul McCartney says a show by Kanye West and Jay Z is his favourite ever live performance.
The 72-year-old music legend conducted a Twitter Q&A session with his two million followers and during it admitted that of the legendary acts he has witnessed over the last 60 years, a concert by the 'Watch the Throne' rappers was the greatest he has ever witnessed.
When asked by a fan what the favourite gig he'd been to was, he wrote: "There are many, but @S_C_ & @kanyewest comes to mind #askPaul (sic)"
The Beatles star also spoke to adorers about the tunes which he's enjoying at the moment, singling out the new single from the Foo Fighters, 'Something from Nothing', and acknowledging Sia's smash hit 'Chandelier'.
However, some users did prompt the 'Let It Be' singer for some sillier answers, with one asking: "Do you ever twerk #askPaul (sic)"
Paul responded by saying: "The last time I tweaked I was with @katyperry. She was rather good at it! #askPaul (sic)"
Paul ended the conversation by premiering an unreleased demo version of the Wings track 'Beware My Love', featuring John Bonham, the late drummer of Led Zeppelin, which will appear on a remastered edition of the band's 'Wings at the Speed of Sound' album.

S Club 7 confirm Children in Need reunion


S Club 7 have confirmed that they are reforming and their first appearance will be at 'Children in Need'.
The pop group took to their official Twitter account to post two messages announcing that all seven members will be performing together for the first time in 11 years during the BBC television fundraiser next month.
The band wrote: " There Ain't No Party Like An S CLUB Party . . . #SCLUB7 #Bringitallback #SC7
"It's official, we're back for BBC Children In Need #sclub7 #bringitallback #sc7 @BBCCiN (sic)"
The messages were accompanied by an audio clip on the 'Reach' singers' SoundCloud page in which they all announced: "We're bringing it all back for Children in Need 2014."
The seven-piece band rose to fame in 1999 with their hit single 'Bring It All Back' and released four albums and starred in their own TV show before announcing their split in April 2003.
It won't be the first time the 'Don't Stop Movin'' hitmakers have appeared on the telethon, as they performed the official 'Children in Need' single 'Never Had a Dream Come True' in 2000, and sang their hit 'Have You Ever' on the broadcast the following year.
The band told the BBC: "We're massive fans of BBC Children in Need and it was great to be able to support the charity all those years ago.
"We're really looking forward to bringing it all back for Pudsey, for BBC Children In Need and for all our fans who have been so great over the years. This is going to be the mega S Club party of all time!"
The announcement follows months of speculation that the band would be reforming for a tour following the success of other bands such as Blue, Steps and 5ive who have appeared on reality television shows documenting their return to music.
S Club 7 have not confirmed any plans to return to music full time, but it is believed that their future plans depends on how well their BBC performance goes down with audiences, when they take to the stage on November 14.
