X Factor presenter, Dernot O’Leary has insulted Stacey Solomon, by branding her as the new Jade Goody. Dermot thinks that the British people will welcome Stacey into their hearts in the way they welcomed Jade, lets hope they don’t turn on her as viciously too.

“I was talking to her the other day in the studio and was saying to her try not to think about it too much, just really enjoy it.
