Former Xtra Factor host, Fearne Cotton has spoken out about the amount of attention that her pal, Holly Willoughby’s revealing Dancing On Ice dresses have gotten recently, and described the drama as “hilarious!”
She told The Sun: “I think it’s hilarious. It seems weird that there is so much fuss over Holly’s boobs when they are obviously really great.
“We all know Holly Willoughby has the most amazing figure ever. Anyway she’s always dressed like that. She loves the ’50s style fashion which oozes glamour.
“It only got about five complaints. It’s all a bit of fun and she shouldn’t change.”

Fearne took the job from Ben Shepherd last year, but is keen now to move in the footsteps of Cat Deeley and make it in the States.
A source told The Sun: “Fearne had fun working on X Factor but she decided to quit while she was ahead.

The Sun has tipped Fearne Cotton as the new host for X Factor spin off show, The Xtra Factor. Ben Shephard quit the show last month after being passed over for the main presenters job.
An ITV insider said: “Fearne was top of our list — she’s young, bright and is on top of the pop world with her Radio 1 show.
“We’re in final discussions and hope to make an announcement soon.”
Eurovision: Making Your Mind up will be hosted once again by Eurovision veteran Sir Terry Wogan and this year he will be joined by Fearne Cotton.
Terry said: “This year hope springs eternal. Who knows, this could be the year that the UK makes it into the top ten. It’s about time!”
Fearne is no stranger to Eurovision: Making Your Mind Up having served as a judge on last year’s show.
She said: “I’m delighted to be returning to Eurovision: Making Your Mind Up as a co-host with my pal Terry this year.
“I can’t wait to see what tricks the acts have up their sleeves this time. Can anyone top DJ Daz’s troupe of school girls?
“It’s an eclectic mix again this year so it will be anyone’s guess who the public will vote for.”
Terry and Fearne will be joined in the studio by a panel of experts who will cast their judgement over the acts but the ultimate decision about who will be packing up their parka for Helsinki will be the public’s.
Viewers can vote for their favourite act by phone or text with all the profits from the votes going to BBC Children In Need.
The winner will be revealed in a second show later in the evening.
Channel Five has signed Fearne Cotton to host Make Me A Supermodel. The new series, which begins on Five next month, will this year feature boys as well as girls battling it out to win a year long contract with top London modelling agency Select, it was announced today.
Fearne will host the live Friday night shows where models battle it out on the catwalk to see who stays and who is eliminated via a public vote.
Fearne Cotton said: “I was hooked on the last series of Make Me A Supermodel so it’s fantastic to be presenting the new series. I’m obsessed with fashion and glamour, in fact I love the whole fashion industry, so it really is the perfect show for me to host.â€?
Sham Sandhu, Five’s Controller Of Special Events and Pop Features, added: “I am delighted that Fearne is going to be the host of the new series. She is one of the country’s hottest TV presenters right now and has a real flair for bringing the excitement of live TV to the viewers at home – especially when there’s an elimination at stake.�
Been away from the telly for a couple of evenings, so I hit the web this evening to find out what’s been going on. Here’s the Love Island update:
Austrailian model Emily Scott has been ejected from Love Island. A bit of a shame, since she hadn’t really had a chance to shine since arriving on Love Island what seems like half-an-hour earlier.
From what I hear she’d been doing a decent job of keeping Cockroach Paul Danan away from the other girls on the Island - I hope they were grateful to her. Milo’s not surprised, though - she was never going to survive against an original Islander!
Presenters Matt Brown and Jayne Middlemiss apologised to Sheryl, a guest on the show, for showing the footage [of Leo and Bianca in the shower together], but Patrick said, “I’m not apologising. Why should we apologise? We’re only showing the behaviour.
“You should apologise, not us. The way Mary Kielty brought me up you would not catch me in the shower… with Leo.”
Maybe ‘Father’ Shane Lynch’s Christian values are starting to rub off on Kielty a bit? Watch for PK fussing about the beach house trying to get the girls to cover up and lecturing the boys on sex out of wedlock
And another celeb mother has weighed in on the presenters: Sophie Anderton’s mum has ‘blasted’ Kielty and co-host Fearne Cotton for being biased about her daughter. Better yet, she claims that “Beautiful people can be alienated and that’s what is happening here”.
What does that say about her opinion of Sophie? Does ‘beautiful’ define her? Has she no other redeeming features than her looks? Shame on you Sophie’s mum.
