Pamela to pose again?

THEY have made a movie together, but now PAMELA ANDERSON and DENISE RICHARDS could be about to get a bit more intimate.

Reports in the US suggest the two blondes have been offered $1million to strip for Playboy... together.

It wouldn't be the first time either had got naked for the top shelf mag.

Bond girl Denise posed in 2004 and Pammi started her career with Playboy and has done shoots through her career.

Liam - I hate my voice

LIAM GALLAGHER always said OASIS were the biggest and best band in the world.

But now the gobby frontman has confessed most of their early material makes him cringe — because he says he sounds like TWEETIE PIE.

He said: “I hate my voice on all them records. I sound like f****** Tweetie Bird.
“I mean, they were good at the time, it’s the best I could do, but I prefer it the way it is now.

“When I hear Slide Away, I think, ‘That’s a vocal’. Supersonic, that’s all right.
But certain songs, Live Forever, some of the high bits I just think (head in hands), ‘Aw, f*** that’. I was young. I hate that vocal on Whatever. I despise it. It’s s***.”

Shetty Obscene

Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty has been questioned in India over her public kiss with Hollywood actor Richard Gere.

The 32-year-old was stopped at Mumbai Airport by officials who had no record of a court ruling that overturned a ban on her leaving the country.

Her spokesman Dale Bhagwagar said: "She called me in the middle of the night and was in tears." Officials let her continue after prolonged questioning.

Gere caused outrage in India when he embraced and kissed the star in April.
Obscenity charges. An arrest warrant had been issued for Gere soon after the incident, while Shetty also faced obscenity charges.

Girls Aloud set UK singles record

Girls Aloud have won a place in the new Guinness World Records book after scoring the most consecutive top 10 hits in the UK chart by a female group.

The act, whose latest chart success is Sexy! No No No, have scored a run of 16 hits inside the top 10.

They replace Beyonce's former band Destiny's Child in the compendium, whose record was 11.

Madonna captured the record for the highest-grossing music tour per concert from Cher.
The pop star also sets the standard for most chart-topping albums by a female artist, having reached the chart summit nine times. The title was previously held by Kate Bush.


Li Lo No Go

Linsay Lohan won't be leaving rehab just yet, according to her mum. Reports in the US earlier this week suggested Li-Lo's spell in the Cirque Lodge facility in Utah would be coming to an end this weekend.

But her mother has revealed her release date has yet to be set, so it looks like the Mean Girls star will remain in the clinic where she has been since July.

Lohan has arguably made more headlines in rehab than she did before she checked in. She allegedly had a steamy romp with a married fellow rehabber Tony Allen - sparking his wife Stephanie into filing for divorce.

There are also reports that she was caught taking drugs and warned to stay clean or face being thrown out of the centre. She entered rehab to seek counselling following two drink drive charges earlier this year.

The actress has also sought to battle her drug demons after she was caught in possession of cocaine during her arrest.

Kate Moss dumped by 7 brands

Kate Moss has been axed as the face of seven brands as the supermodel’s “cocaine honeymoon” fades away.

The 33-year-old was snapped up by firms after she was exposed taking the drug in 2005. But interest has faded in the past year and she has lost lucrative deals including Coco Chanel and Agent Provocateur.

Last autumn she had a record 18 contracts worth tens of millions of pounds. This has fallen to 11, with stars like Keira Knightley taking her place on billboards.

And this time last year, fashion bible Vogue had six campaigns using Kate including Dior, Louis Vuitton and Burberry. Next month’s issue has none. An industry source said: “She is still very big but the honeymoon period has ended.”

Jeremy Vile

A judge has branded The Jeremy Kyle Show "a form of human bear-baiting" at a court case in Manchester.

District Judge Alan Berg said the ITV1 daytime programme was "trash" and existed to "titillate bored members of the public with nothing better to do".

The judge made the comments while sentencing one of the show's guests, who head-butted his love rival during filming earlier this year, for assault.
He added that the show's makers were partly to blame for the attack.

He added that producers had persisted in contacting David Stainforth from Chesterfield to persuade him to make an appearance on the show.

Judge Berg was reported in the Manchester Evening News as saying: "I have had the misfortune, very recently, of watching The Jeremy Kyle Show.
"It seems to me that the purpose of this show is to effect a morbid and depressing display of dysfunctional people whose lives are in turmoil."

He added that it was "human bear-baiting which goes under the guise of entertainment".
"It should not surprise anyone that these people, some of whom have limited intellects, become aggressive with each other.

"This type of incident is exactly what the producers want. These self-righteous individuals should be in the dock with you. They pretend there is some kind of virtue in putting out a show like this," said Judge Berg.

Hello Halo 3

Halo 3, one of the most anticipated and heavily marketed video games in history, has gone on sale at thousands of stores across the US, Australia and New Zealand.

More than 10,000 US shops opened their doors to sell the title which is Microsoft's key weapon in the console wars with Sony and Nintendo.

More than 15m copies of the first two titles in the series have been sold. Microsoft hopes day one sales of the game will top £70m ($140m). If the game does bring in more than $140m, it will earn more in 24 hours than the opening box office takings of any movie in history.

However, sceptics point out that video games cost upwards of £40 ($80), while cinema tickets are much less. In New York, about 500 people turned out for the midnight launch.


Another fine mess

The company that ran competitions for GMTV has been fined a record £250,000 after viewers lost an estimated £20m in phone-in quizzes.

Premium rate regulator Icstis has handed out the largest penalty in its 21-year history to Opera Telecom. For four years, the company selected potential winners before lines closed.

Some 18 million callers were charged when they had no chance of winning, Icstis said, with the average cost of each call put at more than £1.

The regulator described it as "the worst case which Icstis had come across in terms of the numbers of consumers affected and the amount of money at stake".

The scandal has already led to the resignations of two GMTV executives and contributed to a crisis of trust in TV in the UK.

Moss Cross

No wedding is complete without a good old-fashioned bust-up.

Kate Moss and Sienna Miller kept the tradition alive at a mutual pal’s reception with a foul-mouthed catfight — over scruff bag Rhys Ifans.

Kate has been pals with Rhys for years and has had the hump since Sienna pulled him — because he’s stopped getting hammered with the model.

Sienna arrived at the reception in London with Rhys, not long after Cocaine Kate, who was with new fella Jamie Hince and best pal Sadie Frost.

Evil glares were exchanged across the dancefloor as the tension mounted between the two camps. And after some serious alcohol lubrication it all kicked off.

A witness at Saturday’s bash told me: “Kate had a go at Sienna and accused her of stealing her style. She was ranting on about how Sienna was now trying to steal her lifestyle and her friends too."

'High School Musical' proves UK ratings hit

Disney Channel UK's premiere of High School Musical 2 became its best rated show ever on Friday night.

The premiere pulled in 1.2 million individuals with an 8.4% audience share across multichannel homes. Over its two-hour slot its audience peaked at 1.3 million.

An average of 750,000 kids - an audience share of 38.4% - tuned in for the premiere, giving the channel the biggest audience among kids on Friday, beating EastEnders and Coronation Street.

The channel's four showings for the movie saw a collective 1.74 million viewers tuning in, with overnight figures reporting that 1 million were kids aged 4-15. In the US, the movie was watched by 17.2 million when it premiered on the US Disney Channel last month.


BBC announces new music TV show

Mac said about the new programme: "I'm really looking forward to the opportunity to showcase new and upcoming bands on TV, it's truly exciting for me. It's so important that music gets this kind of TV exposure."Sounds airs as part of BBC Two's new teen strand'Switch' from October 20th.

Simon’s lost it. He is disrespectful. Leona may be talented, but she’s not worked as hard as me or others in the industry — fact!”

Mobo's Soulless

Pop star Gabrielle has called for the Music of Black Origin (Mobo) Awards to be scrapped because they lack a soul prize and are dominated by US artists.

"How can you leave out the soul award? I think you need to shut it down," said Gabrielle, Britain's best-selling black female singer of the last 20 years.

She said the organisers "haven't got a clue" and the awards should be run by "people who really know about music". The Mobos have said they do recognise soul artists, but in other categories.

This year's ceremony, which saw stars including Amy Winehouse, Kanye West and Rihanna win awards, had categories for hip-hop, reggae, R&B, gospel and jazz - but not soul.

"I'm really shocked," Gabrielle told the BBC News website. "It just shows how behind the British music scene is because that wouldn't happen in America.

Dave

TV channel UKTV G2, which shows cult comedy and game shows aimed at young men, is to be rebranded Dave.

UKTV says the new name is based on the idea that "everyone knows a bloke called Dave".

The channel, which carries shows like Never Mind The Buzzcocks and Top Gear, will be available on Freeview for the first time when it launches in October.

The move will mean Dave can be watched in 20 million homes across the country, according to UKTV. The head of Dave, Steven North, said: "Changing the channel name to Dave enables us to create a strong and noisy personality for the channel that immediately aligns us with our core 16-34 male audience."

UKTV is a joint venture between the BBC's commercial arm, BBC Worldwide, and cable TV provider Virgin Media. Dave, which starts up on 15 October, will replace UKTV Bright Ideas on Freeview.


Dogg Pounded

Rapper Snoop Dogg has been sentenced to three years probation and 160 hours of community service after pleading guilty to carrying a collapsible baton.

"Snoop's goal is to make music, not make court appearances," his lawyer Donald Etra said.
The rapper must also donate $10,000 (£5,000) to a children's charity.

Mr Etra said the felony conviction would be reduced to a misdemeanour after one year if Snoop Dogg did not break the law during that time.

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has stunned the world of football by leaving Stamford Bridge by mutual consent.

The decision comes after the club held a crisis meeting to discuss the indifferent start to the new season.

Piper said: "The kids who watched me in Doctor Who shouldn't watch me in this. "I have this abiding fear of people thinking I leaped at the chance to appear in a series that's heavy on sex and that therefore I'm sort of a slag. "I thought longer and harder about taking on this role than I had about any other. I hope I made the right decision. "

Piper's character is inspired by a blog by a real-life call girl. The drama will be shown on September 27 on ITV2 at 10pm.

Skinny Arsed Bitches

Lily Allen has claimed that she felt exploited and "set-up" by the media to use her in the weight debate when her fashion range was launched at the same time as that of supermodel Kate Moss.

The 'Smile' singer designed a clothing collection at high street store New Look within days of Moss's highly publicised Topshop collection being launched. The media then used the competition of the two clothing ranges to highlight the issues surrounding size zero celebrities, which Allen claimed made her "feel fat" and she is now insecure about her body.

She told Cosmopolitan magazine: "I felt I'd been set up and it shook me. All of the body image issues I struggle with on a daily basis came up. "I'm a size 10 with a size eight top and made to feel fat next to someone like Kate Moss. What makes me angry is I let it happen. "I'm not super-skinny, so in 'Fameland' I'm fat Lily Allen. It's now my ambition to get all those skinny-arsed bitches off the covers of magazines and get normal people on them."

Mentalists

Gallows singer Frank Carter has designed some tattoos based around the comedy character Alan Partridge.

Carter has teamed up with The Dear & Departed frontman Dan Under to work on creating some body art inspired by Steve Coogan's popular TV creation.

The rocker told Kerrang: "Dan's an amazing tattooist. So we decided to work on designs inspired by stuff from the I'm Alan Partridge show."

There's going to be a design of a cup of beans with a sausage in it and a tie and blazer badge combination pack. Really random stuff that only fans will get." He added: "Hopefully in a few months, thousands of people will be walking about with Partridge tattoos."

Sex Horror

Glamour model Jordan has compared her sex life with singer Peter Andre to the horror film Hostel.

The I'm A Celebrity star has spoken previously about her husband's manhood being similar in stature to a Sky+ remote control and has now claimed that the couple have very unusual habits in the bedroom.

She told OK magazine: "Pete is the sicko, not me. I'm an extremist. Have you seen the film Hostel? Our sex life is like that."Jordan added that the couple were still very happy together and that they plan to renew their wedding vows at some point next year.

For those who haven't seen Hostel http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hostel_(film)

Curvy Kate

Kate Moss has taken up a new health programme, which she has called the Vibrancy Diet, in order to get a curvier figure.

The regime, which means the model will eat three meals a day, includes relaxation and meditation techniques and having her face exfoliated with boiled milk.

Moss has reportedly gained 5lbs since parting ways with her ex-lover Pete Doherty in July, but she is apparently pleased by the weight gain.

A source told the Daily Mail: "She's really taken herself in hand since her split with Pete Doherty and has spoken to skincare experts, nutritionists and homeopaths about how best to look after herself. "When she was with Pete, they'd often eat at weird hours and would go for days with little sleep."

A spokeswoman for 50 Cent refused to comment on his retirement plans.

Judge Drog's good deed

Chelsea star Didier Drogba is to sing at the Royal Albert Hall.
The striker will perform at Football Reaching Out For Africa - a benefit concert to raise awareness of HIV/Aids.

A source at the Albert Hall said: "He has definitely agreed to sing. Apparently he has a good voice."
Didier - currently African Footballer of the Year - has yet to pick a song.

Wonder if he'll be tempted to stage dive.

Brook Dancing

Sexy Kelly Brook has been paired up with heartbreaker Brendan Cole for the new series of Strictly Come Dancing.

Rod Stewart’s wife Penny Lancaster, actress Stephanie Beacham and football legend John Barnes will also be competing in the BBC1 show which attracted more than 12 million viewers last year.

TV presenter Kelly, who is engaged to Hollywood star Billy Zane, was delighted to be teamed up with professional dancer Cole who split up with his fiancé, dancer Camilla Dallerup, after he got “too close” to newsreader Natasha Kaplinsky during the first series.

I now hate Brenden Cole...I really hate him.

Girls Aloud – Nowt done…yet

Girls Aloud have hit back at rumours that they maintain their glamorous looks with plastic surgery.The'Sexy! No No No...'stars insisted that their responsibility as role models helps them to resist the temptation of the surgeon's knife.

Singer Cheryl Cole told Q: "It's not natural for a 20-year-old to get their boobs done. I think it would be a terrible example for young girls for us to be having surgery to change our bodies. I might overdo it with the fake tan, but I'm not so dissatisfied with myself that I'm thinking of cutting bits off or sticking bits on."

Bandmate Nadine Coyle added: "Well, I suppose it's flattering that people think we might have (had surgery). But, no, apart from hairspray and fake tan we've not added anything."

They truly are an inspiration to us all.

Hammond's insurance goes up again

Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond was involved in another car accident at the weekend - less than a year after nearly losing his life in a 288mph crash.

The 37-year-old skidded off the track during a 24-hour Le Mans-style race at Silverstone on Saturday, the BBC said.

The host was not injured and continued the race once his vehicle - a BMW 330 DTi Sport - was repaired. "During the race, at night, Richard was driving and another car shunted him off the track," said a BBC spokesman. "Richard wasn't hurt at all but the car was damaged. It was taken back to the pits and repaired before Richard carried on with the race."

Hammond and fellow presenters James May, Jeremy Clarkson and masked driver 'The Stig' had been taking turns at racing the £100,000 car.

Cowell faking it?

Simon Cowell has been accused of creating "fake" bands composed of failed solo entrants to compete in X Factor. A report suggests the show creator and judge has been "fixing" things by steering the made-up groups into the final stage.

According to The People he has created one male and one female band - possibly called Hope and Aspire respectively. An insider told the newspaper: "It's no secret that Simon Cowell wants a band to win this year - even if they have to fix it. Putting through made-up bands when other groups have spent months or years preparing just isn't fair. It's a fix."

Jim Walks out of Kitchen

Comedian Jim Davidson has left ITV1's Hell's Kitchen after a dispute with fellow contestant Brian Dowling.

His departure from the cookery reality show followed a row in which he used a gay epithet in the former Big Brother winner's presence.

Dowling took issue with the term, which he described as "really rude". Davidson released a statement after his exit saying "the moment was right to leave". "People who know me know I am not homophobic," he continued.

The row began after Davidson complained about a "look" he'd been given by a table of diners.
"Why do shirt-lifters pull that same face?" he said, prompting Dowling to call him the "most offensive person he had ever met".

I used to like him on Big Break though.

Crap Comeback

Britney Spears' first major performance in three years, at the MTV Video Music Awards in Las Vegas, has been widely dismissed as a disaster.

The BBC's David Willis said her performance would "go down in the history books as being one of the worst to grace the MTV Awards".

Her ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake and R&B star Rihanna were the big winners.
Timberlake took four awards, including top male artist, while Rihanna scooped video of the year for Umbrella.

Spears, who was not nominated for any awards, opened the show dressed in a sequinned bikini and knee-high boots, performing her new single Gimme More.

The performance comes after a year when Spears publicly shaved her head, went into rehab and fought husband Kevin Federline for custody of their two sons.


Media ban for US 'Big Brother' contestants

CBS has banned reporters from interviewing evicted Big Brother 8 contestants for the rest of the season. Originally, all housemates who were being sent to the sequester house after being eliminated from the competition were made available to the media, including CBS's own morning programme, The Early Show.

However, following last week's eviction of cocktail waitress Amber Siyavus Tomcavage, who was heard making anti-Semitic remarks on the live feed, contact with the media has been suspended.


Sharon's Shock

Sharon Osbourne yesterday laid bare the bitter feud at the heart of her family.

The X Factor star is reeling over her brother's claims that she ignored their father's dying wish to be buried next to their mum and backstabs her A-List friends.

David Arden, 56, alleged in a Sunday newspaper that Sharon smeared excrement over Sir Elton John's Rolls-Royce, sought cosmetic surgery during cancer treatment and secretly loathes fellow X Factor judges Simon Cowell and Dannii Minogue.

Everyone secretly hopes the one about Elton's Roller is true.

Brian’s Bard Guides

Big Brother winner Brian Belo has been asked to front a series of Shakespeare Made Simple podcasts.

He memorably admitted in the house that he had no idea who the Bard was, adding: "Romeo and Juliet? Ain't Romeo in the So Solid Crew?"

But Borders book chain wants Brian, 20, to read explanations of the classic plays in downloadable clips.

Spokesman David Kohn said: "Getting him on board could be the perfect way to get a new generation into Shakespeare."

Radio One Revamps Schedule

Radio 1 listeners will get an extra 30 minutes of Chris Moyles, plus agony aunt sessions with Kelly Osbourne in a massive schedule shake-up.

Gobby Moyles - the self-styled station saviour - will begin his breakfast show earlier at 6.30am from October 12. He said: "I'm really pleased with my extension! We always run out of time on the show so it'll be great having an extra half hour a day."

New for Sunday nights will be Annie Mac with a special show for teenagers. And from 10pm until midnight Kelly will front Surgery - where listeners talk about their relationship or health problems.

Fearne Cotton and Reggie Yates will host the chart show plus a new audience request slot at weekends. Former kids' TV presenters Dick and Dom get their own Sunday morning show.

JK and Joel are out, with new boy Greg James - who was on student radio just months ago - taking over their early morning show. Radio 1 now pulls in 10.87million listeners and Moyles is chasing Terry Wogan who has the nation's most popular radio breakfast show. Moyles has 7.26 million fans - up 200,000 in the past three months - and just 660,000 behind Wogan.

Additives DO send kids hyper

Parents have been warned about the dangers of artificial additives in drinks, sweets and processed foods after new evidence emerged about a possible link to hyperactive behaviour in children.

Government food advisers immediately hardened their dietary advice after a study found normal children behaved impulsively and lost concentration.

Psychology professor Jim Stevenson, who led the Food Standards Agency commissioned study, said: ‘We now have clear evidence that mixtures of certain food colours and benzoate preservative can adversely influence the behaviour of children.’

Further evidence is that my cousin, Lee used to go off his head on pick & mix, he wouldn’t sleep for days.


Facebook profiles to be made public

Social networking website Facebook is to make the personal profiles of its 39million members available to online search engines next month.

The site will let those using Google, Ask or Yahoo! see if someone has a Facebook profile and see their photograph. Until now, only members or invited friends could see the information.

The only way to prevent details being revealed is to adjust security settings. Facebook said it hoped the move would attract more people to its site. The announcement is the latest security concern to dog the site.

However, the move is unlikely to affect anyone at MTV since everyone is far to busy working to spend anytime on facebook.


Unlikely nomination for team Beckham

It is an award they might not want to actually win - David and Victoria Beckham have been nominated for the title of Funniest Double Act at the annual Loaded Laftas Comedy Awards, voted for by readers of Loaded magazine.

The pair are up for the gong thanks to their bid to conquer the US.

Posh and Becks will find themselves up against comedians like Alan Carr and Justin Lee Collins from The Friday Night Project, and David Mitchell and Robert Webb from Peep Show.

The nomination raises questions about what IS funny…How many series has My Family had now?
