Posh is Preggers!

The wonderful news that David and Victoria Beckham are expecting their forth child was announced today… Now that’s the kind of news we like to read at the start of a new year.

The golden couple have always spoken openly about having more children and even in an interview for February issue of Vogue magazine, the former spice girl admitted that she would never say never to another baby.

The couple’s three sons, Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz, are said to be ‘very excited’ at the news of a new brother or sister. And they’re not the only ones…It seems like everyone cant wait to congratulate the Beckham’s. Singer Kylie Minogue was quick to tweet: “WOW… congratulations to Victoria Beckham and David… fourth child on the way.”

The new addition is due in the summer, and maybe it just might be the girl Victoria has hoped for. Either way, I’d like to send a big congratulations to the two of them!

Kylie Speaks Out about Minogue-Osbourne Feud!

Thu, 30 Sep 2010 21:54:04 +0000

The Minogue-Osbourne feud has truly turned into a family affair after Kylie Minogue has swooped in to protect her little sis’ Dannii.

The war between the two clans has also become very public after Sharon Osbourne talked about it on the TV show Piers Morgan’s Life Stories, Dannii referenced it in her new book My Story, Kelly Osbourne tweeted about it on Twitter, and now Kylie has spoken to the press regarding the dispute.

Expressing her feelings about the clash of the famous families to the The Sun, Kylie revealed: “I feel protective. Dannii is my little sister and I always feel the urge to get involved. But I’m reluctant to get dragged into this fresh hoo-ha.”

The Australian pop star added: “It’s such a small part of our lives now. I think it’s basically become a pantomime. But it was very real at the time Sharon and Dannii were both on [The X Factor].

We had the Osbournes and the Minogues kicking off. But I know Dannii wishes it would go away. Can we just get past this now? Come on! It’s a bit old and boring.”

I reckon Kylie’s goal of getting past the feud is a good one, but if Dannii truly wishes it would go away, then she shouldn’t have written about it in her ‘tell all’ book.

Still, I do hope the Minogues and the Osbournes work out their differences as both sides have their points. Good on Kylie for sticking up for her little sis’, there nothing like a bit of family support… Touché!

Osbourne’s Back… Minogue: “Sharon’s Not Welcome in My Dressing Room!”

Mon, 27 Sep 2010 23:54:31 +0000

As Dannii Minogue returns to The X Factor (UK) this Saturday after being away on maternity leave, she must once again come face to face with Sharon Osbourne, who is back as a guest for the judges’ houses stage of the talent competition.

Not an easy thing to have to deal with, especially after being publicly ridiculed by Sharon’s daughter Kelly on Twitter just over a week ago. Regarding Osbourne’s upcoming appearance, Kylie’s little sis’ stated: “It’s not awkward, it’s separate things and we have no contact. It’ll be interesting to see how the fans react to [Sharon.]”

But Minogue declared: “She’s welcome any time (to the show). Just not in my dressing room.”

When Minogue was recently asked by X Magazine about her reaction to being called “the devil” by Kelly O, the Australian said: “I just put what happened in the book. I don’t want to get into the back and forth of this. [I’m] not really angry. I laughed. I know what’s true.”

In her new book, My Story, Minogue revealed that Sharon verbally attacked her in her X Factor dressing room, causing Minogue to breakdown in tears.

Speaking about Kelly’s allegations that the dressing room incident is a lie, the new mum added: “They’re strong accusations. I’m not a liar – if she’s calling me a liar, she’s calling everyone who was there a liar. The producers and everyone. There were a lot of witnesses.”

It was reported that fellow judge Louis Walsh had to check with X Factor boss Simon Cowell to make sure that Osbourne could return.

A source said: “Louis had to clear her return with Simon Cowell who is pleased because he knows she will be good for ratings.”

I reckon it will be more interesting to see how Dannii and Sharon react to each other than anything else. If I were Sharon, I would stay as far away from Dannii’s dressing room as possible. And if I was Cheryl Tweedy, I would wear a bullet proof vest and take cover…

Hopefully, no blood will be drawn!

Kelly O: Dannii Minogue is “The Devil!”

Mon, 20 Sep 2010 13:36:23 +0000

As is to be expected, Kelly Osbourne is defending her mom (mum to our readers in the UK) Sharon by calling Dannii Minogue’s claim that Shazza is a bully false.

The feud between Minogue and mother Osbourne began when the Aussie singer worked with Sharon on The X Factor (UK) back in 2007. From early on, it was rumoured that, for various reasons, Dannii and Sharon did not see eye to eye. Shortly after Dannii joined the popular talent show, Sharon quit and was replaced by former Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Cole.

In 2009, Sharon appeared on Piers Morgan’s Life Stories and admitted she in fact quit because of her contentious relationship with Dannii. In the interview Sharon said: “I didn’t enjoy working with [Dannii] at all and didn’t fancy the prospect of spending six months sitting next to her.”

In Dannii’s new autobiography, My Story to be released on September 30, regarding her interaction with Sharon on The X Factor, Kylie’s younger sister wrote: “About 30 minutes before the live broadcast, there was an urgent knock on my dressing room door, and in bowled Sharon… Sharon demanded to know why I hadn’t gone to the press to tell them what a nice person she was… The minute she left, I burst into tears. I’d managed to hold it together while Sharon had been there, but once she’d gone I couldn’t hold it in, and I wept into my hands.”

In response to Dannii’s story, Kelly tweeted: “the best thing to happen to dannii’s career was that my mother hated her[.] she needs to shut her mouth and concenterate on motherhood! i will be the first one to admit that my mother did not play her cards right when came to dannii but trust me when i say dannii is the devil[.]”

Kel added: “Dannii you are so lucky that i respect simon enough to not tell the truth about what really happened. wa wa wa you poor middle aged victum. to the 12 dannii fans out there i ask you this question what would you do if someone wrote a book of lies about your mother? sorry i have just had to deal with this bullshit 4 years and i have kept my mouth shut but i am sick and tired of her lies enough is enough. i think you all forget i was there i saw everything and if my mum was the “bully” why was she the one [who] left [The X Factor]?”

Harsh words Kel!!! I know you’re defending your mum, but it’s a good thing you’ve been hanging out with the Pussycat Dolls, because it looks like you have a severe cat fight on your hands.

I say, let the bitchfest begin, meow!

Say Hello to Dannii Minogue’s Newborn Boy Ethan!

Fri, 09 Jul 2010 16:44:06 +0000

The X Factor’s Dannii Minogue has introduced her newborn son Ethan to the world… via micro-blogging website Twitter. The first public photo of baby Ethan (pictured) along with new parents, Dannii and British boyfriend Kris Smith, was posted on Twitter by the Australian singer herself. Minogue gave birth earlier this week in Melbourne’s Royal Women’s Hospital, where the photo was taken. Along with the photo, Dannii posted: “Hey everyone thanks for all your wishes, we are loving baby Ethan and Kris is the best dad in the world. X” Dannii’s sister Kylie is expected to take a trip down under to see her newborn nephew later this month.

An Aussie and a Brit having a baby boy together… how very pro-Commonwealth of them! I wonder if the baby will be raised in England or Australia.

Earlier this week The X Factor judge also tweeted: “Looking forward to catching up on X Factor auditions. Can’t wait to see Simon, Cheryl and Louis again soon – miss them very much. Dx”

I say Dannii should wait and take as much maternity leave as she can to cherish this very special time for bonding with baby Ethan – and I hope Si shares my sentiments.

Congratulations to the happy new family!

Dannii Minogue Discourages Cheryl Cole Comparisons!

Sun, 27 Jun 2010 17:40:56 +0000

Having been compared to sister Kylie for years, mum-to-be Dannii Minogue is no stranger to being measured up against famous pop stars. So the Aussie singer wasn’t exactly entering new territory when people began comparing her with fellow X Factor judge Cheryl Cole.

In response to the constant Cole comparisons, to You magazine Minogue recently said: “It’s hard because you want to have your own vibe. I have been through this with Kylie. Who is better? Who is prettier? Who has got the nicer clothes?”

Minogue is currently in Melbourne, Australia getting ready to have her first child with boyfriend Kris Smith as Cole, along with colleagues Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh, judges the first round of X Factor auditions throughout the UK. Various celebrities such as Geri Halliwell and Natalie Imbruglia have been filling in for Dannii as guest judges while she is on maternity leave.

I say Dannii needs to forget about what people think and how she compares to Cheryl, Kylie, or anyone else and make her “own vibe” by concentrating on what truly matters in life like having her first baby – which it appears she is trying to do. That’s the way to be Dannii! Good on you mate!

Kylie’s Triumphant Debut at Glastonbury Festival!

Sun, 27 Jun 2010 15:58:31 +0000

In 2005 Kylie Minogue was expected to perform for the first time at the Glastonbury Festival of Contemporary Performing Arts in Somerset County, England; however, the Aussie singer unfortunately had to cancel her planned participation after she was diagnosed with breast cancer.

Five years later, a vibrant Minogue finally made a victorious debut at the music festival. When the beloved diva walked on stage the audience of over 100,000 people roared and cheered with support and excitement, more so for Minogue than for any other artist at the festival.

The international pop icon joined American glam rock-disco group Scissor Sisters on stage to perform their new song “Any Which Way.” Minogue’s performance even incorporated a dance routine. Other notable artists featured at the four-day music showcase include Shakira, Muse, The Gorillaz, Snoop Dogg, and Radiohead.

Minogue will be forging ahead with the release of her eleventh studio album, Aphrodite, which is set to drop worldwide in merely a few weeks. Also, Minogue just announced on BBC1′s Friday Night With Jonathan Ross that she will be going on tour in 2011.

Kylie has returned with a vengeance! Her perseverance, talent, and tenacity are truly impressive. Welcome back!

Kylie Turns Up the Heat in LA

Sean Borg — Sun, 09 May 2010 16:04:14 +0000

Sexy Kylie Minogue sent temperatures soaring yesterday as she strutted her stuff in downtown Los Angeles.

Surrounded by a bunch of topless male dancers, the pint-sized Aussie star proved she still had what it takes as she filmed scenes for her new video, All My Lovers, taken from her upcoming album Aphrodite.

It’s great to see the superstar back on track, and as always working with the best of them.

This time around the singer chose top director Joseph Khan to take on the task of bringing All My Lovers to life.

Khan’s past efforts include Britney Spears’ Toxic and Lady Gaga’s Lovegame; it’s thought that his talents might inject a fresh new feel into the Queen of comeback’s new image.

Wearing a black bra and knickers covered in a white cobweb-style tee, with matching white thigh high boots, Kylie still managed to bring all the attention to one of her most famous assets – her butt… Surprise, surprise!

Minogue’s ‘butt swinging’ certainly turned up the heat a few degrees more, I can tell you… And as if it wasn’t hot enough in LA right now. GO KYLIE!
