Cheryl Cole’s fine
YOU’VE probably been reading a lot of stories in the papers about Cheryl being in hiding and down in the dumps but I’d just like fans to know that I’ve been speaking to her and she’s fine. Cheryl’s had a lot to deal with over the years, both personally and health-wise, so all the current press stories aren’t going to be a huge deal for her.
The good thing is she’s back here for a while with her family and friends. She’s got Will.i.am too, he’s a good friend and he’s totally got her back, which is great. I’m very protective of Cheryl and I’m a firm believer in what is meant to be will be and, from a selfish point of view, I’m glad I can pop round again for a cup of tea!
Congratulations Olly Murs and Caroline Flack!
CONGRATULATIONS to Olly Murs and Caroline Flack who landed the jobs as The Xtra Factor presenters.
It’ll be interesting to see how their chemistry works out. I can’t tell you how many people have come up to me and assumed I was presenting the show, usually these things don’t come out of nowhere so I might have been considered.
I think it would’ve been fun but I couldn’t have seen myself doing it with Olly as it would have been two singers and it’s a presenting job at the end of the day.
Nadine’s split
Last week i was so sad to hear that Nadine had split from Jason (Bell). I’ll definitely get in touch with her and see if she’s alright. They’ll remain friends and it was amicable but its always sad, especially as they were engaged. Nadine is a strong person and a strong woman in relationships so i know she’ll be okay.
THERE aren’t many people who could replace Simon on The X Factor but Gary Barlow can.
Gary Barlow’s got his own record label, is an amazing songwriter and a fantastic singer so he’s got every base covered. It was a smart move on Simon’s part. I heard a rumour that Kelly Rowland would make the fourth judge. It’d be great to throw an American into the mix and she’s fabulous. The new line-up will be so exciting although I can’t believe Louis Walsh is still hanging on in there!
Bring on Tulisa!
IT’S the right decision for Dannii to move away from The X Factor, I think. She was a massive part of the show and was a great judge but now Simon and Cheryl have left, it probably does need a shake-up.
I think Tulisa from N-Dubz would be a great choice – you need someone who’s currently making relevant music. That was Cheryl’s strength; she was making music herself while judging, and acts respect that. Following on from Cher Lloyd’s success on last year’s show, I think they’ll be a lot more acts of that ilk so it’s important to have someone who understands that type of music and as N-Dubz are part of the new music movement, Tulisa, who’s opinionated but warm, would be ideal.
Impressed by Mollie King’s taste!
WHEN I saw those pictures of Denise Welch snogging that guy while out raving it made me laugh out loud! Denise (right) puts me to shame – she’s 52 and seems to have more fun then me!
Nicola, Cheryl and Nadine are all in LA and Sarah’s sunning herself in Marbella and I’m a bit jealous that I’m not in sunnier climates! Although I will book a trip to the States soon to hang out with Cheryl.
I attended a fashion show for the Haven breast cancer charity. I’m an ambassador for the cause but luckily I wasn’t asked to walk the catwalk, thank God! One person who does walk the catwalk well is David Gandy. I was impressed to see Mollie King from The Saturdays is dating him. He’s super-hot!
Arnold Schwarzenegger shock!
I WAS shocked to hear that Arnold Schwarzenegger had been having an affair with the housekeeper and had a secret child with her ten years ago – and kept it from his wife!
How the hell do you keep something like that a secret, surely the guilt would kill you? I feel so sorry for his poor wife. Arnie’s put her in an awful position with his sordid secret. I know I could never forgive that level of deceit, my relationship would definitely be terminated!
Kimberley Walsh column: Not as flawless as she looks!
Justin’s birthday was over the weekend so I got him some golf stuff and we went for a romantic meal – we had a few drinks but our days of raving are over! We are moving into our new home this weekend – we’ve been in our flat for six years and we’ve had some raucous parties on our roof terrace, so it does feel sad to leave, but change is exciting.
I had to do a shoot last week in which they were going for a wet and sexy look, but the reality was I spent all day in a studio with some poor fella standing on a ladder chucking buckets of water over me! It was fun, although I am quite critical of photos of myself – I’d never look at myself and think, yeah I look good!
I don’t mind a little airbrushing, but in the past my body shape has been completely altered so I’ve asked for it to be changed back – I can’t be proud of pictures if they’re blatantly not me! But I’m grateful for the odd bit of skin smoothing, just as long as readers know it’s not the reality when they look in magazines!
JUSTIN’S mum and dad came down to see our new home – they loved the place, but they were teasing us about getting started on having children to fill it up! I do get really broody, so it won’t be too far in the future. I think I would like a couple more years of working first, but Justin’s great with his daughter Chloe so I know he’ll lead the way when it does happen.
I may not be quite ready to be a mum yet, but my sister Sally is ready to burst! She’s overdue and it’s driving me mad – I think I’m more stressed than her! She’s tried every old wives’ tale to induce the labour, but nothing’s working. Her baby’s going to be an Aries, which is the same star sign as Justin – they’re notoriously strong-willed, so I’ve already told Sally that the baby’s stubbornness is starting early by not coming out! I can’t wait to be an auntie, though. I’m going to get loads of practice in with Sally’s baby and then Justin and I will be ready to go!
