Leona’s All Skin and Bone-r!
Posted on March 3rd, 2010 at 9:46 am by
Leona Lewis has slimmed down from a size 14 to a size 10 after undergoing a major detox while in LA recording her album. And now she says she feels less self-conscious about her weight than she used to.
But I think she may have taken it a bit too far. Leona looks gorgeous, as always, in the pics, but she’s getting a bit too skinny for my liking. I hope being in La La land hasn’t got to her because I think I prefer her with a few more curves!
Apparently Leona winced when a member of her team told Grazia magazine that she’s lost weight recently, saying ‘That’s what everyone’s been saying but I’m quite an average size. I’ve always been conscious of my weight.’
Surely if you’ve dropped two dress sizes though, you’d know about it!
And admits that being famous also makes her more self-conscious about what she wears.
The sexy star admits: ‘Now I sometimes feel like I can’t wear certain things, so I’ve stopped looking at photos of myself. You become more self-conscious.’
You’re gorge Leona – but don’t lose any more weight please!
Leave the extreme skinny to Vic-bore-ia Beckham!
Cheryl gives Ashley the Cole shoulder and heads to LA LA!
Posted on February 18th, 2010 at 7:21 am by
Cheryl Cole has jetted out to Los Angeles leaving cheating hubby Ashley Cole at home to think about what he’s done.
The Girls Aloud star is said to be ‘livid’ with him over allegations that he exchanged ‘sext’ messages and cheated on her with a secretary, so just twelve hours after her fantastic Brits performance she headed to Heathrow.
The singer is coming over to work on some new solo material in the recording studio in a week-long session that was booked a month ago.
Meanwhile, Ashley is laid up at their Surrey mansion with a broken ankle. Diddums. It’s a good job he’s not playing at the moment as I think most of the country is Team Cheryl.
The gorge girl arrived on stage at the Brits to a standing ovation, and the crowd could be heard chanting ‘Dump him, dump him.’
I agree! It’s not like Cheryl is a typical WAG who relies on her husband for cash or status. She’s a successful singer and TV star and doesn’t need to be saddled to a love rat.
Cheryl hasn’t made any comment over the latest string of allegations against her husband but she’s taken her wedding ring off and a source says: ’By going ahead with her performance in front of the celebrity audience and the millions watching on TV, she was sending out a clear message to Ashley that he will not take her pride away – whatever he does.’
Fight for this Love? I say fight him for half of the house, love.

American Idol’s Talent’s Got Britain’s X-Factor…

Now I’m hearing Simon has been negotiating with Fox execs this week, who are desperate to keep him on Idol, but apparently Simon has already made up his mind to leave and concentrate on X-Factor USA. If any of these execs actually watch the show, they’ll know that Simon’s decisions are usually final!
Cowell produces and judges X-Factor in the UK whereas on Idol he’s simply a judge. Bringing X-Factor over will mean more control (and more money) for the sharp-tongued mogul.
And while Fox are trying to assure audiences that Idol will go on without Simon, everyone knows that Simon is Idol and it wouldn’t be the same without him. Ellen’s going to have to make a big impression to convince me that it will still work if Simon goes.
Luckily, we’ll still be able to get our Cowell fix when X-Factor starts in autumn 2011!
Is Si’s Saying Sye to American Idol?

I’m hearing Tony Cowell, Simon’s brother, is fuelling rumours that he’s leaving the show to work on an American version of the wildly popular British show X-Factor and that this series of Idol will be his last.
Tony, 59, let the info slip during a podcast of his weekly radio show, The Fame Game, but obviously realised it was a blunder because his comments were later removed.
He said: “Meanwhile, Simon prepares for a new season of ‘Idol,’ or should I say his last season of ‘Idol’ – OK, I will say it, because it is.
Leona Steps Up Her Game

Dance guru Payne, will be assisting the singer with all her moves, the shows will be staged from next summer onwards and the X Factor winner is said to be considering a ‘Garden of Eden’ styled-theme for the shows.
A source said: “Since Leona has played so few full-length concerts she’s still quite a raw performer. And if she’s going to pack out arenas she needs some polish.”
Lewis is expected to be performing to audiences of 20,000 or more, her record company SyCo is determined to transform Leona into a global touring powerhouse and told Lewis, “Money is no object!” Lucky girl…
Wey-Ay! Chezza’s a Tinseltown Stunna!

Dressed in sky high heels and a tunic dress, it seems the Girls Aloud singer has mastered the way to get off a plane looking better than she did when she got on eleven hours before. That’s travelling first-class for you!
Chezza’s over here to start work on her first solo album before Ashley joins her next week for Chelsea’s pre-season tour. Somehow I doubt Cheryl will let him off the leash to go out on the town while he’s here!
The 26-year-old has already worked with Will.i.am of Black Eyed Peas fame on her first track, Heartbreaker, which is due out in October.
It’s also rumoured that Simon Cowell is trying to set our Cheryl up as a judge on the US version of X-Factor – but she’ll have to lose the Geordie accent. Audiences struggled to understand Ant and Dec when they tried to break America earlier this year so Mrs Cole may have to take elocution lessons.
She’ll have to become more The Grove than Byker Grove, like!
