OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ professional Katya Jones thinks Cheryl would be great as a competitor on the BBC ballroom show.
Katya appeared with some of her co-stars on ‘The Greatest Dancer’ on Saturday (16.02.19) – on which Cheryl acts as a judge along with fellow ‘Strictly’ dancer Oti Mabuse and ex ‘Glee’ actor Matthew Morrison – and the pair had a lengthy chat about ballroom skills on set.
Katya said: “Cheryl wanted to know everything. She was saying to me, ‘Katya … show me how to move my hips, show me your arm movements, what do I do? And then she was practising. She was loving it. And she was really good.”
The 29-year-old choreographer is certain former ‘X Factor’ judge Cheryl would do well on the ballroom and the past performances of pop stars on the programmes would suggest she’d have a chance to win the coveted glitterball trophy.
Katya told the Daily Star newspaper: “We do like a pop star on ‘Strictly.’ So you never know, she could be on the next series.”
Cheryl danced with Pasha Kovalev – who announced last week that he is quitting ‘Strictly’ – on ‘The Greatest Dancer’ and impressed the studio audience and viewers with her impressive moves.
BBC bosses have already started booking up celebs for the 2019 series and Chris Evans and Huw Edwards are already believed to have signed up.
Shirley Ballas – who is head judge on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ – has previously stated she would love to see Cheryl, 35, take to the dancefloor.
She said: “There’s a few names bouncing around but I’m open to anybody that goes on. I would like to see Cheryl Cole on it. You know, I think she would make a great contestant.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Jameela Jamil branded Karl Lagerfeld a “ruthless, fat-phobic misogynist” following his death.
The 32-year-old actress and model slammed the iconic designer – who passed away on Tuesday morning (19.02.19) after battling ill health for several weeks – insisting he wasn’t the “best person” and shouldn’t be eulogised.
Retweeting an article which urged people to “stop mourning” and claimed the Chanel creative director was a “terrible person”, Jameela wrote: “I’m glad somebody said it (Sic).
“Even if it is a little soon. A ruthless, fat-phobic misogynist shouldn’t be posted all over the internet as a saint gone-too-soon. Talented for sure, but not the best person.”
The ‘Good Place’ actress went on to state that despite any positive behaviour the designer may have exhibited, Karl “shouldn’t be glorified” as he “never changed or apologised”.
In response to a fan arguing against”cancelling” people for previous toxic behaviour – and urging Jameela to think about the positive effect Karl had on celebrities such as Rihanna – the star said: “You can’t cancel someone who is dead. You can just say they shouldn’t be glorified if they’ve never changed or apologised.”
The original article referenced a previous comment in which the Fendi director had said singer Adele was “a little too fat but she has a beautiful face and a divine voice”.
Jameela added that she wanted to write an essay rather than try to express her thoughts in a single tweet.
She wrote: “Gonna write an essay about this instead of trying to put my thoughts on this into a tweet. How problematic the industry has been for girls is too complex for this.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Foals are borrowing Everything Everything’s bass player Jeremy Pritchard for their tour.
The British group’s bassist Walter Gervers quit the band after 12 years in 2017, and the band have been lucky enough to have Jeremy come on board for their forthcoming run, which kicks off on March 4 at Gorilla in Manchester, whilst his band are on a break between albums.
Alongside a picture of their new tour mate, they tweeted: “While our friends Everything Everything @E_E_ are on a break before making new music, they have kindly loaned us their bass player Jeremy Pritchard, who will be touring with us this year.”
Everything Everything also shared a picture of both bands, and added to their profile: “While we’re on a break before starting work on new music, Jeremy is spending a season on loan, playing bass live with our friends @Foals. (sic)”
The ‘My Number’ hitmakers have a busy year ahead with the release of two albums in 2019 entitled ‘Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost’ Part 1 and Part 2′.
Walter decided to bow out of the indie group in order to “pursue a new life”, but his bandmates – frontman Yannis Philippakis, Jack Bevan, Jimmy Smith and Edwin Congreav – had no hard feelings against his decision and wished him well for the future.
The four of them reassured fans at the time that their fifth record – their first since 2015 LP ‘What Went Down’ – is their “best yet”.
Announcing Walter’s departure, the ‘Cassius’ hitmakers said: “To all our fans.
“Sadly we have to announce that our mate Water has decided to leave the band to pursue a new life. The parting has been sad but we remain firm friends. He’ll always be our brother, we love him and wish him well in his future endeavours.
“We had 12 amazing years touring together from a small postal van to the Pyramid Stage and beyond. It’s the end of a chapter, but not the end of the book.
“We want to thank him for all his time and energy and passion and we want to thank you for all your support from the early days and into the future.
“We are making new music and working on the fifth LP. It’s gonna be the best yet. Keep those ears alive. (sic)”

OHMYGOSSIP — Laura Whitmore reveals how she revives her dehydrated skin.
The 33-year-old presenter and model – who presented ‘I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ from 2011 until 2015 – has recommended products she uses to keep her skin fresh because she says travelling constantly its toll.
Laura said: “I have dehydrated skin from travelling so much, so I use The Body Shop Vitamin E Sink-in Moisture Sleeping Mask a few times a week. Smashbox Photo Finish Hydrating Under Eye Primer is great, too.
“Pack a face mask for a long-haul flight. When else would you have that much time to sit and let a mask soak into your face?”
When asked her about her essential cosmetics, she replied: “Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Red Carpet Red. I love matte lipsticks that are long-lasting and this one doesn’t dry out your lips.”
The svelte blonde says she loves to keep her figure in shape by running and doing hot yoga sessions, but also added that she has a simple approach to healthy eating and doesn’t bother with fad diets.
She said: “Exercise is really important for my mental wellbeing. I love going for a run, and I’m also a massive fan of hot yoga, which I do regularly.
“I have no time for fad diets. I haven’t eaten red meat for 18 years, though, and I also try to eat organic food as much as possible and use non-dairy milk. I snack on almonds and always make sure I have some with me. I hate being hungry. I don’t think being healthy has to be complicated.”
Laura – who originally hails from Ireland is now based in London – revealed she loves “flying the flag” for designers from her homeland and named “Joanne Hynes, Simone Rocha, Natalie B Coleman, Lennon Courtney and Helen Steele” as her favourites.

OHMYGOSSIP — Karl Lagerfeld wants to be cremated.
The creative director of Chanel – who passed away on Tuesday (19.02.19) at the age of 85 – had very specific plans for what should happen after his passing.
Speaking in April last year in an interview which has surfaced since his death, he told Numero.com: “There will be no burial … I’ve asked to be cremated and for my ashes to dispersed with those of my mother … and those of Choupette [his cat], if she dies before me.”
Karl passed away after battling ill health for several weeks. He was admitted to hospital in Paris, France on Monday evening (18.02.19) and passed away Tuesday. The cause of death has yet to be made public.
And since his death, tributes from the fashion and showbiz worlds alike have poured in including former popstar and fashion designer Victoria Beckham.
Taking to Instagram, she wrote: “So incredibly sad to hear this. Karl was a genius and always so kind and generous to me both personally and professionally. RIP x vb (sic)”
Whilst Donatella Versace shared: “Karl your genius touched the lives of so many, especially Gianni and I. We will never forget your incredible talent and endless inspiration. We were always learning from you.”
Model Alexa Chung recalled how “witty and generous” Lagerfeld was when she interviewed him, and said knowing him was “an honour”.
She wrote: “Rest in peace, Karl. I remember being so scared to interview you and yet you were in fact incredibly witty and generous. Thank you for inviting me to some of the most glamorous experiences of my life, it was an honour to know you. Oh yeah and thanks for the dry shampoo tip, will always think of you as I powder my wig.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Daniel Radcliffe used alcohol to cope with fame.
The ‘Harry Potter’ star admitted that, during the height of his fame, he would feel “watched” every time he stepped into a bar and used to “get very drunk” to overcompensate for that feeling.
He said: “There is an awareness that I really struggled with, particularly in my late teens when I was going out to places for the first time where you would feel – again, it could have largely been in my head – where you would feel watched when you went into a bar, when you went into a pub. In my case, the quickest way to forget you were being watched was to get very drunk. Then as you get very drunk, you become aware, ‘Oh, people are watching more now because now I’m getting very drunk, so I should probably drink more to ignore that more.’ It can affect your psyche.”
Daniel was known for having a wilder lifestyle when he was younger but he insists that now he is “much happier” without that life.
He added: “I don’t miss it generally now at all. I know that varies for some people. When I think of the sort of chaos I used to invite into my life, I’m really much happier now. I think there was some part of me that was like, ‘Actors have to be crazy cool drunks. I have to live up to this weird image that I had in my head of what it means to be a famous actor.'”
Daniel only knows how hard it can be finding fame at a young age but he has no regrets about the movie that made him a household name.
Speaking on Off Camera With Sam Jones, he shared: “There is no blueprint for starting young and working stuff out. That’s why whenever people are having a go at Justin Bieber drag racing cars or whatever, I’m always like, ‘Yeah, but you never know. Stuff could be super crazy for him right now.’ … Even at the lowest point, I still loved my job so much and I still loved going to set. There was never a day where my own s**t would affect how I was on the set. There was never a point where I was like, ‘Oh, I wish this hadn’t happened to me. I wish I wasn’t Harry Potter.’ That just didn’t happen.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Laura Norton has taken ‘EastEnders’ newcomer Natalie Ann Jamieson under her wing.
The 35-year-old actress – who plays Kerry Wyatt on the soap – is excited for the incoming star to take over the role of her on-screen daughter Amy five years after Chelsea Halfpenny’s exit.
She told Inside Soap: “I’d like to thin I have. Watching her, you remember how scary it was when you started. I had lovely people around me.
“But just in terms of her character, helping her to make it her own. Natalie is a very good actress, and the character should be hers now.”
Laura is excited to start acting with her new co-star – whose casting was confirmed last month – describing her as “lovely and friendly”.
She added: “I’m looking forwad to it, very much so – Natalie’s brilliant! I did the screen test with her and her instincts are amazing.
“She’s lovely and friendly – and she’s a fellow Geordie, so what more could you want?”
Amy – who left Albert Square in 2013 and has been living in Ireland – was last seen with Chelsea playing the part until she left the soap to try other projects.
The ‘Casualty’ star decided not to reprise the role, but has given her blessing to Natalie – and she is still in touch with her former cast mates.
Laura revealed: “Of course! We speak a lot and we FaceTimed recently. She was supportive when we auditioned for a new Amy. She’s great, so I have the best of both worlds – I’ve got two great daughters!”
When Natalie was announced to be joining ‘EastEnders’, she said how “grateful” she was for the chance.
She said: “I feel very lucky to be joining the cast of such a loved and respected show. I’m very grateful for this opportunity, and can’t wait to find out what the future holds for Amy!”

OHMYGOSSIP — Simon Gregson called his wife a “devil surgeon” as she helped him remove an ingrown hair.
The ‘Coronation Street’ star – who married his long term partner Emma Gleave eight years ago – shared a snap of his wife on social media holding a pair of tweezers, and suggested it had been a painful procedure.
Alongside an angry faced emoji, Simon – who plays Steve McDonald on the soap – wrote: “I’m I the only one who has an armature ingrowing hair Devil surgeon (sic)”
The actor’s Twitter followers were quick to offer words of support, with some of them opening up about their own experiences.
One tweeted: “I had one once. Not nice. Relief when its gone Simon”
Another laughed: “Think you should definitely video this surgical procedure!!”
The amusing but awkward moment was a far cry from the loved up couple’s Valentine’s Day (14.02.19) plans, which saw them head to the cinema to watch Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga’s music drama ‘A Star Is Born’.
Emma tweeted: “Valentines date night to the cinema! ‘A star is born! Wow what a film……… whole new respect for @ladygaga ! LOVED IT @simongregson123”
Last month, the pair had a “lucky escape” after a fire broke out at Manchester’s The Ivy restaurant.
Simon, 44, wrote on Twitter: “Hats off to the staff at The Ivy yesterday for getting everyone out safe.”
Emma shared a clip on her Twitter, writing: “The Ivy Manchester is now on fire! What a lucky escape (sic)”
Fortunately, the fire was confined to The Ivy’s terrace area, allowing the restaurant to re-open its doors the very next night after being given the go-ahead by fire chiefs.
A statement read: “The fire was contained in one section of The Roof Garden thanks to the excellent work of the Greater Manchester Fire Services who have informed us that the building is now totally safe to occupy.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Scarlett Lee says her graveyard marriage proposal was “perfect” and she felt like her grandparents “were there” with her.
The ‘X Factor’ runner-up got engaged to her boyfriend Nathan Shaw earlier this month, who popped the question besides her grandparents’ grave, and although she can appreciate that the proposal was unconventional she wouldn’t have wanted it “any other way”.
Speaking to Christine Lampard on ‘Lorraine’, she said: “I didn’t want it any other way. It was so perfect; we’ve been together since we were children. I know they [her grandparents] were there.”
The 21-year-old singer is currently on ‘The X Factor Live Tour’ and is living her “best life” at the moment as she has also started planning her wedding.
Scarlett’s mother is helping her with the planning stage but she already knows what dress she wants as she’s had an idea for a bridal gown in her mind since she was a “little girl”.
She explained: “I sketched it [wedding dress] out as a little girl and it’s still the same. I’m living the best life now. My mum has a lot of input as she’s my best friend.”
Scarlett was mentored by Simon Cowell on the last series of the ITV talent show and she has nothing but good things to say about her second “dad” because of the way he supported her and her family when they experienced a devastating fire at their home last year.
She said: “I can’t wait to show him my new songs. I definitely going back to LA as I want to enjoy it and not be so nervous.”
Speaking of the blaze, she added: “He was like another dad to me, what he did for my family behind closed door and not in the press, I thank him.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Zack Snyder called Ben Affleck the “best Batman ever”.
The 52-year-old director – who cast Affleck as Bruce Wayne for ‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’ and ‘Justice League’ – has paid tribute to the 46-year-old actor who confirmed he was stepping down as The Caped Crusader last month and thanked his pal for “blessing him” with his “glorious chin and amazing heart”.
Sharing a picture of Affleck as the Gotham City Saviour on Twitter, he wrote: “There was a time above … a time before … there were perfect things… diamond absolutes. But things fall… things on earth.
“And what falls… is fallen. In the dream, it took me to the light. A beautiful lie… Best Batman ever. Thank you my friend for blessing me with that f**king glorious chin and an amazing heart. (sic)”
The ‘Gone Girl’ star will step down as the hero for Matt Reeves’ June 2021 standalone movie ‘The Batman’, which will focus on a younger version of the comic book legend, a project that Affleck had initially been attached to both star in and direct.
It has not yet been announced who will be taking control of the Bat Cave from Affleck, but Reeves has teased that the plot will be more of a detective-driven story with a full “rogues gallery”.
The ‘War for the Planet of the Apes’ filmmaker said: “It’s very much a point of view-driven, noir Batman tale. It’s told very squarely on his shoulders, and I hope it’s going to be a story that will be thrilling but also emotional. It’s more Batman in his detective mode than we’ve seen in the films. The comics have a history of that. He’s supposed to be the world’s greatest detective, and that’s not necessarily been a part of what the movies have been.
“I’d love this to be one where when we go on that journey of tracking down the criminals and trying to solve a crime, it’s going to allow his character to have an arc so that he can go through a transformation.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Guy Ritchie’s ‘Aladdin’ remake will have a “much stronger journey” for Princess Jasmine.
The film’s producer Dan Lin revealed that Naomi Scott’s take on the character in the live-action reboot of the animated 1992 Disney classic will take more of a “leadership role” in the ruling of fictional city Agrabah and won’t be entirely focused on her romance with Aladdin, played by Mena Massoud.
In an interview with Empire, Dan said: “In the original movie, it felt like [Jasmine] didn’t have as compelling a goal. Her main aim was to find the love of her life. In this case, the romance is important, but she also wants to see more of Agrabah, and take more of a leadership role in ruling the city. Her character has a much stronger journey.”
The upcoming film will also star Will Smith as the Genie and the Hollywood star previously admitted he was “terrified” of taking on the role, which was previously played by late comic Robin Williams.
Robin’s performance in ‘Aladdin’ received much critical acclaim, including earning him a Special Achievement Award at the Golden Globes, and Will has admitted to being slightly intimidated about having to follow in the footsteps of the actor.
He previously said: “I was terrified doing the Genie after Robin Williams. But I found a lane that pays homage. It is my own thing, you know? So, I think people are going to love it.”
Will, 50, also previously teased the much-anticipated new film was “spectacular”.
He enthused: “I have worked at most of the studios, and Disney just knows what they are doing. It was really a spectacular team of people that came together around a classic story. It’s so spectacular, it’s such a beautiful movie and I can’t wait for people to see it.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Skye Borgman wants to make a sequel to ‘Abducted in Plain Sight’.
The Netflix film details the extraordinary case of 12-year-old Jan Broberg who is abducted twice from her small church-going community in Idaho in the 70s by her family’s trusted neighbour and friend Robert ‘B’ Berchtold.
The filmmaker has revealed that in order to explore in more depth the “grooming and brainwashing” that take place in the original 90-minute documentary as well as the effect of the religion on the family she would like to create a “sort of a trilogy of films” to further investigate the case.
In an interview with Vanity Fair, she says she hopes to make a follow-up film “to explore the different topics that we didn’t have time to really dive deep into.”
She added: “Like the role that faith plays – maybe not even just L.D.S. [Church of Latter-Day Saints] – but the role that faith plays in sheltering communities. Also grooming and brainwashing – there are really interesting, intricate things that happen, and we touch on both of those topics in the documentary, but I’d love to explore those more. I guess in a perfect world, it’d be sort of a trilogy of films.”
The film includes interviews from Jan herself, as well as her mother Mary Ann, her father Bob and her sister Susan and Skye admitted that so much time was spent editing the film that the family became “so frustrating” to her.
She explained: “We spent so much time with them on the computer, going through what they had said, and [editing] things together. There were times when the family was just so frustrating to me.”
The director recalled a point where the family took a break from the project six weeks but insisted it was the “best thing” for the documentary.
She said: “It was the best thing that we could’ve done because we were able to come back and feel everything we were supposed to feel.”

OHMYGOSSIP — IDLES say winning a BRIT Award would be “meaningless”.
The British pop punk group – comprised of Joe Talbot, Adam Devonshire, Mark Bowen, Lee Kiernan and Jon Beavis – are grateful for being nominated for British Breakthrough Act alongside Mabel, Tom Walker, Jorja Smith and Ella Mai at tonight’s ceremony (20.02.19), but they say it won’t make a difference to their career in the long-run.
Speaking to BBC Newsbeat, frontman Joe said: “For our hard work to be appreciated feels great.
“But we’re not better than anyone else and we don’t think that.
“We’re not going to turn it down but it’s not on our radar. We’d be the same band before or after a Brit Award, it’s meaningless.
“Being nominated is not meaningless. Us being part of the conversation, that’s the important bit.”
Despite their latest record ‘Joy as an Act of Resistance’ reaching number five in the Official UK Chart, Joe has admitted they feel like a “drop in the ocean” compared to some of the pop acts who are nominated alongside them.
He said: “It makes sense in one way because we were number five in the album chart.
“On the other side it doesn’t feel right.
“Compared to the sales and money behind many pop acts… we’re a drop in the ocean.”
Guitarist Mark says the fact they have received a nod could mean that the awards show is starting to branch out to recognise other genres.
He said: “They didn’t need to give us this opportunity – it’s an amazing thing that’s happened.”
Joe agrees with his bandmate and thinks it’s great that grime stars such as Stormzy are starting to be represented, as it opens the door for other alternative acts to be given the same pedastal as the pop stars dominating the charts.
He added: “When you’ve got some very similar pop music everywhere and not much choice for kids I think it’s important for them to see another side of things.
“Whether it be grime, punk or hardcore – there are a million things out there that are great and interesting.
“It’s good for people to just see that.
“However they get hold of it … we hope we can stick our foot in the door and open a conversation.”

During her time on ‘Love Island’, Samira told her fellow contestants she had dated ‘Star Trek’ actor Chris Pine after he approached her at the GQ Men of the Year Awards after-party in 2016.
She said: “GQ Man Of The Year after-party … and I thought I recognised this guy from the Disney Channel. I thought, ‘My God he was in that movie with Lindsay Lohan,’ and he kind of moved to me and I thought, ‘He seems fun, he seems cool.’ I kind of looked him up and thought, ‘He’s actually a pretty big deal.’
“He was like, ‘Take my number.’ The next day me and my friend were like, ‘He’s not gonna text me,’ and then he did! I’d just broken up with my boyfriend as well so I was like f**k it, I’m gonna go on a date with Chris Pine.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Hugh Jackman has achieved his dream of making it into the Guinness Book of World Records.
The 50-year-old actor previously revealed that he and his brother were desperate to set a record growing up but he has now become a record breaker thanks to his multiple performances as ‘X-Men’ character Wolverine.
In an interview with Alison Hammond on ‘This Morning’, Craig Glenday, Editor-in-Chief of Guinness World Records, presented ‘The Greatest Showman’ star with his certificate for having the longest career as a live action Marvel superhero having played the mutant for 16 years.
Upon receiving his certificate, Jackman exclaimed: “That is officially amazing!”
Jackman holds the record with fellow ‘X-Men’ star Sir Patrick Stewart as both have had Marvel careers that span 16 years 228 days as Wolverine and Professor Charles Xavier respectively.
Both actors made their first appearance as Marvel superheroes in ‘X-Men’ in 2000, with their most recent appearance being in ‘Logan’ in 2017.
Speaking via video link on the UK TV show, Stewart, 78, said: “I have discovered that you and I are now in the Guinness Book of Records, congratulations my friend there’s another thing to hang on to a wall.”
A post on the official Guinness World Records Twitter account showed Jackman getting his certificate from Glenday, which was captioned: “Welcome to the family, @RealHughJackman. Congratulations on your record-breaking @Marvel career as Wolverine.”
Jackman and his brother had attempted to beat the record for playing “badminton nonstop” as they thought it would be the “easiest way” to get into the book.
He said:” My brother and I did come up with the easiest way to get in; badminton nonstop is about 54 hours. So we both decided to stay up for two nights to see if it was possible it was a school night I, of course, fell asleep all day through school I just loved that at that age we were thinking somehow that would work.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Glenn Close is “trying to stay calm” during the lead up to the 91st Academy Awards on Sunday (24.02.19).
The 71-year-old Hollywood legend is up for Best Actress for her role in ‘The Wife’ at the upcoming ceremony, her seventh nomination and the one she is hoping to end her losing streak with.

Speaking to ‘Entertainment Tonight’, she said: “I’m feeling good. Just trying to stay calm. Trying to think about, you know, the sky, the trees, the grass … It would mean a great deal. It’s the highest honor you can get for what we do, and so that, in itself is … it’s just a great honor.
“Don’t be disappointed if I don’t win! Because we’ll all be OK.”
Earlier this week, Close insisted she didn’t want to be recognised for her work on ‘The Wife’ just because she hadn’t won an Oscar in the previous 45 years.
In an interview with The I Paper, she said: “It would mean a lot but I wouldn’t want it to be a pity Oscar after 45 years.
“People have been going back and looking at my basic body of work and the six times I lost and what those roles where so I can’t pretend it’s just for ‘The Wife’ but I feel like everyone’s rooting for me.”
In ‘The Wife’, Close plays Joan Castleman, a spouse who questions her life choices as she travels to Stockholm with her husband where he is going to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature.
