Jay McGuiness stashes SCD Glitterball Trophy in bathroom


Jay McGuiness has stashed his 'Strictly Come Dancing' Glitterball Trophy in his brother's "downstairs toilet."
The Wanted singer spent three months learning the tricky footwork and hip-snaking turns in order to be crowned king of the dance floor on the show last year, but it seems the handsome star hasn't found a permanent home for the fancy gong at the moment and is storing it beside the bog.
Speaking on 'Loose Women' this morning (18.01.16), he explained him and his professional dance partner Aliona Vilani have a mini version of the trophy each.
He said: "We keep a smaller version of it, one each. It's [the actual trophy is] at my brother's down stairs toilet."
Meanwhile, the pair is preparing to star in the 'Strictly Come Dancing' live tour but, once that wraps up, Aliona will turn her back on the BBC show in order to start a family.
The blonde beauty, who has appeared on the show for seven years, explained: "I've had an amazing seven years and from a professional point of view you want to leave on a high. On a personal level, 'Strictly' takes up all of your time and I just want to live my life and start a family."
But having children with her husband Vincent Kavanagh doesn't just mean the end of 'Strictly', as the athlete is considering hanging up her dance shoes for good.
Asked if she would carry on dancing after having a baby, she said: "I'm not sure. I don't know. I might.
"When you do something so intensely, I can't do it half way. It's been 25 years of my life that was that."

Nancy Dell’Olio slams Kristina Rihanoff for ‘distasteful’ pregnancy announcement


Nancy Dell'Olio thought Kristina Rihanoff announcing her pregnancy in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house was "distasteful."
The 54-year-old lawyer, who was given the boot from the infamous abode over the weekend, has lashed out at the former 'Strictly Come Dancing' professional for sharing her exciting baby news on the Channel 5 show in a bid to boost her profile.
Speaking on 'Good Morning Britain' this morning (18.01.16), the brunette beauty said: "I didn't like it [the way she announced it]. I was shocked that she was making this announcement and taking this opportunity. I mean, it was a lack of good taste. [she was] trying to do something to gain back some reputation."
Kristina announced to the nation a few days into her stint that she was three months pregnant with rugby hunk Ben Cohen's baby.
She told her fellow housemates at the time: "There was something [that] happened in my life before I came into the house over Christmas ... and obviously I thought it's very private news, you know but because we are living as one family now and everybody is sort of supporting one another now, it happened to be that I found that my boyfriend and I are going to have a little one."
The forthcoming bundle of joy will be Kristina's first child, while Ben already has twin daughters Harriette and Isabelle, seven, with his estranged wife Abigail.
The couple, who have been dating for nine months, met in 2013 when they were partnered together for 'Strictly Come Dancing'.
But, despite rumours claiming they were romancing, they have always insisted they only got together after Ben split from his childhood sweetheart Abigail.

David Gest quits Celebrity Big Brother


David Gest has left the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house.
The larger-than-life personality, 62, who has been battling with ill health over the past week, has been forced to leave Channel 5's infamous abode on medical grounds and his departure will be aired in tonight's (18.01.16) episode.
A spokesperson for the show said: "Due to medical reasons, David Gest has decided to leave the 'Celebrity Big Brother House'. His exit will appear in tonight's show at 9pm."
David's sudden departure comes just days after he was sent to the house's spare room by bosses in order to get some rest and recuperate after he complained of feeling unwell.
A spokesman explained the music producer's absence at the time: "David has been unwell and given time to rest and recuperate in Big Brother's spare bedroom within the house."
David is the fourth celebrity to leave the house after disgraced politician Winston McKenzie was given the boot two weeks ago, Jonathan Cheban walked last week due to stress and Nancy Dell'Olio was evicted over the weekend.
And it looks like axed 'Hollyoaks' actress Stephanie Davis and the late David Bowie's ex-wife Angie could be next as they have both threatened to quit the show in recent days.
Meanwhile, producers were thrilled when they secured David for the current series as they believed he would bring a much wider audience to the show and create more humour.

Ross Kemp confirms EastEnders return


Ross Kemp is returning to 'EastEnders'.
The 51-year-old actor - who last appeared in the soap as Grant Mitchell 10 years ago - will return to the BBC One soap to bid farewell to his onscreen mother Peggy Mitchell (Dame Barbara Windsor, 78), who is dying of cancer.
Ross said: "When I was approached about returning to 'EastEnders' for Barbara's final episodes, it was something I could not turn down. Barbara is a very close friend. When I learned of the storyline, it felt right that the Mitchell brothers are reunited with their mother for the last time. I am really looking forward to filming what will be classic 'EastEnders' episodes."
Grant's reappearance in Walford will also see him reunited with his brother Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden, 56), who is now married to Grant's ex-wife Sharon (Letitia Dean, 48).
Executive producer Dominic Treadwell-Collins said: "Grant Mitchell is an 'EastEnders' legend and finally he is returning home to Walford to say goodbye to his mother and be reunited not just with his old loves but also his brother.
"To have the Mitchell brothers come face to face again, having to face losing their mother, is an opportunity to show Ross Kemp and Steve McFadden at their very best.
"We are all so excited finally to have Ross back on the Square - and to have Ross Kemp, Barbara Windsor, Steve McFadden, Letitia Dean and Gillian Taylforth all on screen together at the same time as Peggy makes an exit like no other, this promises to be something very special."

Boy George: I belong on a TV talent show


Boy George "always felt" he belonged on a TV talent show.
The 54-year-old pop star appears as a judge on the new series of 'The Voice' and he has admitted he has wanted to work on such a programme for a long period of time, even though some critics consider it to be uncool.
He said: "I always felt like I should be on one of these types of shows.
"I'm a singer, it's what I've been doing for 30 years. I always wondered why I hadn't got the call to do it earlier.
"I see people getting the job and I think 'I've got more experience than you'. For me, it's like a duck to water."
He admitted, too, that the money on offer to appear as a judge was another attraction of the job.
He told the Star on Sunday newspaper: "Some people may think you're too cool to be doing a reality show like this.
"What do you say to that? I suppose it's a compliment. But being cool doesn't pay the bills."
George said he had received a few offers to star on a TV talent show, but had been waiting for the right opportunity to crop up.
He explained: "I'd had talks with various people and mainly about 'The Voice' and I was approached by Australia and New Zealand but I wanted to do the UK or the American one.
"And then I thought if I was going to do it, it had to be in the UK because I watch the show and I am a fan of the show.
"For me it was a no brainer and I was like 'OK do I want to be on telly every Saturday night for a few months? Yeah OK, I do'."

Stephanie Davis labelled a ‘vile bully’ by love rival


'Celebrity Big Brother' star Stephanie Davis has been accused of being a "vile bully" by a model.
Katie Daley, 25, has alleged the 22-year-old TV star bombarded her with a series of intimidating text messages and accused her of trying to steal her boyfriend Sam Reece.
She said: "I was bullied as a child and I felt intimidated.
"She is a nasty vile bully. I don't have any respect for her. I hope she just leaves me alone now."
Despite this, Katie insisted that she and model Sam were nothing more than friends.
The former 'Hollyoaks' actress is currently appearing on 'Celebrity Big Brother' and Katie admitted she would be devastated to see Stephanie triumph on the show.
She told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "It would kill me to see a bully like Steph be crowned winner.
"After what she put me through she doesn't deserve to win."
However, a spokesman for Stephanie has already rubbished claims she is a bully.
He said: "We strongly refute any suggestion that Stephanie be labelled a bully.
"Stephanie had taken obvious offence that this girl had meddled in her relationship and reacted emotionally and in the heat of the moment."

EastEnders stars blast farcical storylines


'EastEnders' stars Jessie Wallace and Shane Richie have admitted some of the soap's storylines are farcical.
Jessie - who plays Kat Slater - has confessed she can't understand the idea of Kat having a second child she didn't know about when she gave birth to her daughter Zoe.
She said: "I don't know what to say! She was so out of it and obviously it was before she had a scan. And she didn't know she had twins. She just didn't know.
"It seems a little bit ridiculous that she did not know. I am trying to justify this."
Meanwhile, Shane - who plays Alfie Moon - ridiculed a storyline from 2011, in which Ronnie Mitchell lost her baby James to cot death and subsequently swapped the dead baby for Alfie and Kat's child.
He told Ireland's 'Late Late Show': "That turned into a farce, for want of a better word.
"It split the audience."
Jessie said 'EastEnders' storylines are "completely bonkers", adding: "That's what makes Kat and Alfie so interesting. They'd be boring if they sat in front of a telly all day, reading the paper."

Liz Bonnin won’t appear on reality TV show


Liz Bonnin won't ever appear on a reality TV show.
The Irish television presenter, 39, would never sign up to a series like 'Strictly Come Dancing' or 'Celebrity Big Brother' because she's "too busy" globe-trotting.
Asked if she would appear on a reality TV show, the beauty said: "I'm too busy travelling with the day job!"
However, although her hands are tied up with her current projects, Liz would love to host 'Top of the Pops', which she fronted in 2002, if the music chart show made a return to screens but at the moment she feels she's living her "dream job" by exploring biochemistry and animal biology.
She told BANG Showbiz: "I loved when we used to film extra songs for 'TOTP2', so when acts like Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Coldplay and Beyonce came on and played three or four songs I was in heaven.
"I really loved presenting that show, but my passion lies in science and the natural world so I'm doing my dream job now as a biochemist and wild animal biologist."
Meanwhile, this year looks set to be a busy one for the 'Countrywise' host as she has various projects lined up.
The brunette beauty is currently a science presenter and a role model for EDF Energy's #PrettyCurious programme, which aims to encourage young girls aged between 11 and 16 to pursue STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) subjects at school and into their future careers.
