80’s child TV star, Corey Feldman, has denied suggestions that he was abused by Michael Jackson.
Corey is currently starring in reality TV show, The Two Coreys, which centres on him and fellow 80’s star, Corey Haim.
On the show the pair claimed to have both been abused as boys, but Feldman has spoken out against claims that it was pop star Michael Jackson who perpetrated the abuse.
He says in the July issue of GQ, “People can say whatever they want, but it wasn’t Michael. He and I have our own issues, but that wasn’t one of them. The bottom line is, I know who it was. I didn’t know how to cut him off. Not only did I continue being friends with the guy, but he was working for me. The guy that did this to me was my assistant. Read more & comment »

Mohamed and Sylvia have received the most nominations from the Big Brother housemates this week and will be facing eviction this Friday.
To be honest I am so disappointed that Mario isn’t up again. I would love to see Lisa coping without him. I would also love to see the realisation on his face when he realises that he doesn’t have half the fan club he thought he did!

Amanda Holden has admitted to having a course of botox last year. Hardly a surprise really. I think anyone could have guessed after seeing her trying to cry on this years Britain’s Got Talent.
She told The Sunday Mirror: “Yes, I’ve had Botox. I had it done last June before I went to South Africa [to film ITV drama Wild At Heart] because in the sun you are constantly frowning.
“I haven’t had it recently, it lasts for about three months. People say it’s injecting rat poison into you but you’re actually injecting things your body naturally produces, so your metabolism absorbs it.”
Amanda also revealed that she would like plastic surgery, but is waiting for more advanced techniques before going under the knife. Read more & comment »

Big Brother housemates had a game of spin the bottle last night, and while it may have been nice for some of the guys to watch Jennifer and Rebecca get it on, I’m sure Jen wasn’t too happy at having to kiss Mario later on!
To make matters worse, the housemates then had to endure Mario and Lisa licking at each others mouths like two dogs on heat!
