TOWIE Lewis Bloor’s Fat Freezing Treatment


'The Only Way Is Essex' hunk Lewis Bloor has undergone Fat Freezing Treatment on his stomach and love handles.
The 'TOWIE' star had the treatment called Lipoglaze at the LoveLite clinic in Harley Street in London, in order to look his best for the big trip to Marbella.
The reality TV hottie later posted the results to social media, sharing a photo of his toned body after the treatment.
Whilst having the treatment, Lewis said: "I want to get rid of my love handles so there's less cushion for pushin' and also I need to get rid of my front bump. It's a pity I didn't know about this before I started the show, just 50 minutes sat on a bench and I could even have a bit of a kip now. Back then I lost three stone in two month but I had to spend practically every waking hour in the gym training."
He had one Lipoglaze treatment on his tummy and one on his back just above his hips, what he called his "love handles".
The two 45 minute treatments freeze the fat in the given area to minus 8C and kill off fat cells leaving a more contoured physique. Clinical studies have shown that the fat freezing treatment can reduce as much as 7cm of fat off the waistline in one session.
The 25-year-old hunk - who once dated Lauren Pope from the show - looked much more toned and leaner as he was around the swimming pool this week with friends and during a game of beach volleyball.
Last month (14.05.15) he tweeted "Easiest Ab workout ever thanks to @LoveLiteUK #Lipoglaze.(sic)"
In the same month Lewis was having a series of Skinbreeze facials at Premier Laser Clinic in Soho to clear any spots, lines and wrinkles. The treatment is dubbed the NoTox facial because it mimics some of the effects of Botox but without the use of injections.
In total he had two Lipoglaze treatments which cost £799 each and three Skinbreeze facials which are £150 each at Premier Laser Clinic. Lewis received the treatments as a complimentary gift, but judging by his praise of the work he had done, this could be something he would consider having in the future.

Big Brother’s next time bomb


Big Brother's Time Warp week will include a fake eviction and the return of some of the show's greatest contestants.
On tonight's (05.06.15) episode of the Channel 5 show, host Emma Willis revealed the exciting twist which will see one housemate "evicted" into a secret lair filled with contestants from past series.
This time bomb will kick off Big Brother's Time Warp week, where Big Brother has promised to turn things upside down in the house.
As part of this exciting week, housemates will be set some of the show's classic tasks but they will face a shock when they are joined in the house by the 'evicted' housemate and the legendary past contestants.
Those contestants from previous series making the dramatic entrance, which takes place during Big Brother's live Time Warp Week launch programme next Sunday (14.06.15), will stay for a week until June 19 when the next 'real' eviction takes place.
Meanwhile, tonight (05.06.15), Eileen Daly became the seventh housemate to be evicted from the Channel 5 show.
Dressed in a red coat and wearing a flower crown, she made her way down the stairs to the sound of cheers, telling the crowd: "Thank you very much."

Joanne Froggatt to play serial killer in Dark Angel


Joanne Froggatt is set to play serial killer Mary Ann Cotton in 'Dark Angel'.
The 34-year-old actress - who won a Golden Globe award for playing lady maid Anna Bates in 'Downton Abbey' - has been cast as the lead in the ITV Victorian drama based on the real-life story of the 19th-century serial killer who, by the time she was executed in 1873, was believed to have killed three husbands, eight of her own children, seven stepchildren and her mother.
Speaking to the Daily Mail newspaper, an executive of 'Dark Angel' said: "But she's not just an evil bitch. Yes, she poisoned all these people. The husbands so she could live off inheritance; and the rest because they were in her way. But underneath it all, there's a humanity about her."
The two-parter - based on the book 'Mary Ann Cotton: Britain's First Female Serial Killer' by David Wilson and directed by Brian Percival - is due to start filming in August around North Yorkshire and Country Durham.
Joanne has previously had roles in 'Coronation Street' and 'Bad Girls', as well as playing the sister of Myra Hindley in 'See No Evil: The Moors Murders'.

Artem Chigvintsev denies kicking Fern Britton


Artem Chigvintsev has denied Fern Britton's claims he kicked and shoved her during 'Strictly Come Dancing' training.
The 32-year-old professional dancer has refuted the 57-year-old TV presenter's comment that "he would look at my feet and just kick me or shove me".
Artem admits Fern's accusation a "shock" to him.
Speaking to the Mirror.co.uk website, Artem said: "Recent statements apparently made by Fern Britton, whilst not reflecting any situation I recognise, are difficult to ignore.
"I believe I treated Fern with respect and genuine care, and these claims about me are the opposite of everything I believe in and the person I am.
"I cannot imagine what has prompted such statements which come as a shock to me. I just want to thank all my fans and friends for their support and belief in me."
The former 'This Morning' host - who ended up coming 10th in the 2012 series of 'Strictly...' - criticised Artem for his training methods during a an event hosted by The Times newspaper this week.
She said: "He would look at my feet and just kick me or shove me ... He was like, 'Shut your face. Go home before I kill you'. I would say, 'Oh please just kill me, it would be easier.' Or what was the other one? 'If you go for a cup of tea now, I will blow off like an atomic bomb'. I thought, well I won't correct him on that one."

Caroline Flack’s natural chemistry with Olly Murs


Caroline Flack and Olly Murs only met each other for 15 minutes before their first day working on 'The Xtra Factor'.
The former 'Strictly Come Dancing' winner - who will present the next series of 'The X Factor' With Olly, with the pair taking over from Dermot O'Leary - has revealed their first introduction was short and sweet but they had great chemistry with another from the start.
Caroline said: "We'd only met for 15 minutes before we started working together on our first day on 'The Xtra Factor' but we're both quite similar in that we like getting on with people and we see the positive in situations. We're both quite flirty."
Caroline and Olly have just started work on the audition stage for the next run of 'The X Factor' and she insists they've picked up from where they left off on 'The Xtra Factor'.
Speaking to the Metro newspaper, she said: "I've only done one day so far but it was nice to be back with Olly Murs. He's like a Duracell bunny. He just keeps on going and he's a hard worker and just nice to be around."
Simon Cowell is shaking things up on the singing contest this year and as well as replacing host Dermot he is also believed to have swapped veteran judge Louis Walsh for BBC Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw.
The final spot on the judging panel is up for grabs and Caroline thinks Paloma Faith would be a great replacement for the departing Mel B.
She said: "I think someone like Paloma Faith would be good; or Lenny Kravitz, purely because he's so hot!
"You don't know what people are like until they give it a go. It's like when Danni Minogue started - no one would have said she'd be a great judge - so you don't know."

Naomi Campbell follows Richard Blackwood on Twitter


Naomi Campbell has followed her stepbrother Richard Blackwood on Twitter now he is on 'EastEnders'.
The supermodel - who has 346,000 followers on the social networking site - hit the follow button after the actor landed the role of villain Vincent Hubbard on Albert Square.
A friend of the newbie soap star told The Sun newspaper: "He jokes that she may not actually watch the show but she at least keeps tabs on him and his career as one of his 26,000 followers!"
Richard himself also revealed he doesn't see his older sister as "the most beautiful woman in the world", she is "just Naomi" to him.
He also admitted, Naomi, 45, wasn't someone to "mess" with growing up.
The 43-year-old actor said: "Naomi was thrilled to have somebody she could bully and boss about. But she wouldn't let anyone else try it on. Even as a little kid Naomi had this amazing air about her. You just knew you couldn't mess with her. It was great having a big sister to look out for me. I don't look at her and see one of the most beautiful women in the world. I just see Naomi."

However, her role is a closely guarded secret.

Front will also be joining Ingrid Oliver who is returning as UNIT scientist Osgood and Jemma Redgrave who reprises her role as UNIT's Head of Scientific Research Kate Lethbridge-Stewart in the two-parter written by Peter Harness.

I'll be heading there in November to join the fun and if it's anything like the 50th anniversary event, then prepare yourself for total Time Lord mania."

Peter Kay took 176 lessons before passing driving test


Peter Kay had 176 driving lessons before he passed his test.
The comic actor - whose recent sitcom 'Car Share' was set entirely inside a motor vehicle - was useless behind the wheel and failed his test on four occasions before passing on the fifth attempt.
During an appearance on Alan Carr's talk show 'Chatty Man', the 41-year-old star said: "I can drive but it took me five times to pass. I was not very good at driving. It would not click. It took me six years, 176 lessons. I started when I was 16 in 1990 and passed in 1996. Best thing I ever did - but you have to persevere.
"I had five instructors. One, a guy called Barry, used to get his pipe out and do some shag and talk to me. I remember him saying he would bring me photos from Bulgaria. Another one called Mandy had a club foot. I don't know how she did it but she did."
Although he got his license, Peter admits he still has a low level of skill when it comes to driving and is always bumping his car.
He added: "I've no sense of space. I am always bashing my car or hitting things if you go into bays or things. I just don't think I was ready when I was younger. It cost a fortune. I did it that long they brought out the theory test. That was hard. People were like, 'Why don't you just give up?' People ran out of references when I kept failing my test. My mum can't watch 'Car Share'. She says, 'I can't enjoy it as you are not watching the road,' but I have told her that I can't act and drive. I don't want to shine light on the magic for her."
In 'Car Share', Peter plays supermarket manager John Redmond who drives to work every day with his colleague Kayleigh Kitson, played by Sian Gibson, and despite the minimal setting the series has been a critical success attracting viewers in their droves.
The BBC are planning to bring it back for a second series and a potential Christmas special.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "We definitely want the series to continue and are just working on the details with Peter and are hopeful it will happen. It was such a hit a second series would be a no brainer for the BBC."

Simon Cowell’s making X Factor more cut-throat


Simon Cowell intends to make 'The X Factor' more cut-throat.
The 55-year-old music mogul has teased numerous changes for the latest series of the singing contest, revealing there will be more of the "six chair challenge", which sees judges pick and swap their favourite acts prior to the live shows.
In last year's series, the controversial round brought judge Cheryl Fernandez-Versini to tears, but Simon insists a bigger focus on the harsh stage of the competition will make the show "better".
He said: "There will be more six chair challenges. There will be changes for the live shows. It will be better."
The judging panel is also set to receive a shake up, but while ex-judge Louis Walsh is the only official axing from the show, numerous stars including Nick Grimshaw, Robbie Williams and Louis Tomlinson have all been rumoured to be in talks to become judges.
While no official announcement has been made regarding the final line-up, Simon has teased he will decide between "two or three people" today (05.06.15).
Speaking about the judging panel, he told the Daily Star newspaper: "I have two or three people in mind."
