If I were Simon’s girlfriend Terri I would be getting worried! Not only did Simon pick his ex-girlfriend Sinitta to judge the new ITV show, Britain’s Got Talent, but The News Of The World has revealed that he has also asked her to fill Louis Walsh’s shoes as the fourth judge on the X Factor.
Sinitta revealed to the News Of The World, “He’s given the authorities an amazing insight into what I’m about.
“I do feel bad because Louis is a close friend, but he is not on the show any more and that’s not my fault.
“I’m the rightful new judge because I’ve been groomed for the job.”
So the judges lineup will be as follows, Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson, Sharon Osbourne and Sinitta. To me that seems a lot more balanced. I think ITV had to shake the panel up after the amount of complaints last year about bitchery between Simon and Louis. I hope that the judges this year are more fair and balanced and not just out to get one another.

After his unbelievable popularity on the ITV talent show ‘Soapstar Superstar’ , Coronation Street producers believe that Richard Fleeshman could be the show’s next big heart throb.
With that in mind the bosses have decided to give Craig Harris (aka Richard Fleeshman) a bit of a makeover, transforming him from Gothic teenager to the handsome boy next door.
Poor Rosie will be gutted!

I knew it! As the BBC series of ‘Just The Two Of Us’ was coming to an end I was sure something was going on between Russell Watson and Sian Reeves. Maybe it was the tension during the first few days, or the way they gazed at each other, maybe they kissed just once too often, but I knew!
I watched the tabloids for days after the show ended waiting for the big announcement, but it didn’t come. I began to suspect that they were faking the chemistry in order to win, that or they were both incredible flirts.
And today I spotted this article in Wanadoo. They ARE together!
The reason we haven’t heard about it before now was that Sian had a boyfriend and wanted to let him down gently before she announced her new relationship with Russell “The Voice” Watson!
A TV insider whispered: “Sian and Russell seem quite happy together. It was a very difficult situation because Sian was with Jeremy until very recently,� the mole continued. “It’s a very sensitive issue and Sian decided it was time to end her relationship. Now she’s with Russell.�
It’s Chantelle and Preston all over again! If I was a celebrity or a celebrity girlfriend I wouldn’t let my man anywhere near a show like this!

Will it be the end of his career or a blessing in disguise?
Time will tell as Soapstar Superstar winner, 16 year old Richard Fleeshman plans to leave Coronation Street to pursue a singing career.
Its obvious from the comments on all our Richard Fleeshman articles that the boy is not short of a fan or two. So hopefully Richard will be among the few soap stars turned pop stars who actually make it in the music business!

This year’s Big Brother auditions have begun and Digital Spy is carrying a thread on the Big Brother auditions.
There’s already a lot of speculation about the audition process. Some people think there’s definitely going to be an older person in the house. Older like Pamela Anderson or older like Jackie Stalone? I know which one I’d prefer!
Apparently, the Endemol reps seem to have a clear idea as to what kind of housemates they want. According to one disgruntled auditionee:
I now know that they are lying when they say they dont know what they want as also whilst i was up one of the senior male stuff came up and whispered in the girls ear to let the girl at the end of the line through.
I blatantly heard it and so did someone else. This girl hadnt even spoken yet!!! However she was extremely pretty.
Another said that if you weren’t pretty, you had to show personality, even if that meant other people didn’t get a word in. Hell, it’s dog eat dog at those auditions, but then Big Brother is the reality TV event of the year!

X Factor judge and Tvs original Mr Nasty, Simon Cowell has been put on a diet by his ex -girlfriend Sinnitta, in the run up to the next series of the X Factor.
Simon Cowell said: “Sinitta’s been helping out a lot.
She turned up at my house about three months ago and emptied my fridge and banned me from eating anything fattening.
“There were lots of sweets, biscuits and chocolates in there – now there is just fruit and vegetables.”
He added in an interview with Britain’s New magazine: “I don’t work out, but I was told off by Sinitta, so I think she’s going to take me to the gym.”
Hopefully she will manage to get rid of Simons man boobs before the X Factor starts!

Well girls, Richard Fleeshman must read our site, and must have registered your dismay (and jealousy) over his relationship with fellow Soapstar Superstar contestant Roxanne Pallett. Latest rumours would suggest that Richard has now dumped Roxanne, I bet she’s broken hearted!
According to Star magazine Richard Fleeshman felt that he wasn’t ready for such a serious relationship.
An insider said: “She didn’t see it coming at all. Everyone always mentioned the age gap but Richard reassured her it didn’t matter to him.
“Now he’s changed his mind and told her he’s too young for a relationship. He wants to concentrate on his A Levels and his career.
“They’ve agreed to stay friend but Roxy is absolutely devastated.�
