Kendra Wilkinson ‘feeling good’ after overcoming depression

OHMYGOSSIP — Kendra Wilkinson is feeling “good” after beating depression.
The 33-year-old reality star had suffered with her mental health following her split from husband Hank Baskett 10 months ago, but she recently took to Instagram to reveal she is “enjoying life again” and has been “bonding more than ever” with the couple’s two children, nine-year-old Hank Jr. and four-year-old daughter Alijah.
Alongside a selfie of herself enjoying the sunshine, she wrote: “The depression is gone finally. Back in the light and feels good. I’m living a whole new life, very different but the kids and I are bonding more than ever. Have had to work extra hard to find stable grounds but we did it and back enjoying life again. Sometimes things happen for a reason. Ya know… (sic)”
Kendra had confirmed their break-up in April last year, with a series of videos on her Instagram Stories, where she confirmed the pair had called time on their nine-year marriage.
In the videos, Kendra could be seen crying as she said: “Ten years. I did everything I could. It wasn’t good enough. I will always love him. My heart will always remain open for him. I believed in forever. I really did. Guess it’s just not meant to be. I’m so scared. I have to get strong for my kids.”
And the ‘Kendra On Top’ star also took to Twitter to describe the day as the “saddest” day of her life.
She wrote: “Today will be the saddest, scariest day of my life. Today i will have to be the strongest I’ve ever been. Today, my rebirth begins.”
The former couple refiled for divorce in December, but it’s yet to be finalised.
Apparently the pair resubmitted documents to the court, after their previous divorce judgement, which was filed with the court on October 29, was rejected on a technicality.
Prior to that, Kendra admitted it’s not been easy to adjust to being alone after the end of her marriage – but that she was trying her best to cope.
She confessed: “Been taking a lot of patience, empathy and discipline…. well, except with the d*** head I flipped off on the road the other day. (sic)”

Gemma Collins vows to quit Dancing on Ice if Brian McFadden pulls out

OHMYGOSSIP — Gemma Collins has confirmed Brian McFadden is “staying in” ‘Dancing on Ice’ – and admits she would’ve quit if he had left the competition.
The 38-year-old star was delighted to see the former Westlife singer, who is suffering from a back injury, return to training on the ice yesterday (07.02.19), and insisted she would leave the show if the 38-year-old singer had to pull out.
Gemma took to her Instagram Stories to document one of her training sessions, and as she was skating she spotted the ‘If I Let You Go’ hitmaker gliding on the rink, before shouting: “Brian, you’re back!”
She then said: “I am so delighted that Brian is staying in the competition, because if Brian wasn’t in it I was about to hang up my boots and say goodbye.”
Brian joked: “Don’t say that, the judges might kill me to get rid of you.”
The singer confirmed his back is still feeling “sore”, but he is determined to “get by”.
However, Gemma’s chat with Brian interrupted Saara Aalto’s training with her partner Hamish Gaman, and the ‘Only Way is Essex’ star had to leave after becoming a “disruption”.
Speaking about the pro skater, she said: “The Prince of the Ice is telling me I’m being a disruption and I’ve got to go. Sorry, darling. Sorry, Saara Alto, I’ll go.”
Earlier on Thursday, Gemma treated herself to some rest and relaxation at spa resort Champneys.
She said: “I am here to rest for a few hours, do some nice country walks, before I take to the ice.”
Brian looks set to perform on Sunday’s (10.02.19) show, despite previous concerns his injury might put him out of action.
A spokesman for the ITV show said: “Brian has a bad back and is currently being monitored by our show physio.”
Elsewhere on the ice this week, Gemma hired a psychic to rid the rink of negative energy after she took a tumble during a live performance late last month.
She said: “I’ve brought a psychic into the ice today to cleanse the energy for my performance on Sunday.
“There’s very bad energy in this corner and it’s affecting the performance. We are gonna banish out all the bad energy for this Sunday. Hell yeah!”

Michael Douglas confirms Ant-Man 3 ‘talks’

OHMYGOSSIP — Michael Douglas says “there has been talk” about making ‘Ant-Man 3’.
The 74-year-old actor could well reprise his role as Hank Pym if another movie is made, and while he admits there has been “nothing formal” about the possibility of a follow-up film as yet, Douglas insists he doesn’t tend to hear until the third script rewrite anyway.
He said: “There’s been talk [about another ‘Ant-Man’] … there’s been nothing formal right now that I know of.
“They always kind of spring it on me. The first time you hear about it, it’s already in its third rewrite.”
Douglas reprised his role for last year’s superhero film ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp’ – which saw Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly play the respective titular characters – but he would not be drawn on speculation that he may appear in ‘Avengers: End Game’, which drops in April.
He told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “You know I can’t say a word about that.
“They have one of those machines that, as soon as you say the word ‘Avengers,’ a blowgun comes to the side of my neck.”
Last August, Rudd admitted there were a few “ideas” about another ‘Ant-Man’ film but he doesn’t like to speculate in case the motion picture doesn’t happen.
He said: “I don’t know what the plan is, and I haven’t really asked, because I don’t want to put too much thought into it in case … well, what if there isn’t?
“There are a couple of ideas [for a sequel], but I’d hate to go into any specifics. Even though that is what you want! Because it might not happen.”
And in October, ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp’ director Peyton Reed admitted there were plenty of ideas for another film.
He said: “Hopefully we’re going to get to do another film, but we honestly don’t know yet. But we definitely have a lot of ideas and things we’ve certainly set up in this movie.
“There is [an idea for a trilogy] … as we were writing the second one, [we were] coming up with stuff we wanted to set up. We definitely had ideas for character arcs for all the characters, and I certainly have some of my own, some of which I’ve shared with Marvel, some I haven’t.”

Klaxons ‘meet up to talk potential comeback’

OHMYGOSSIP — Klaxons have met up in secret to discuss a potential comeback.
The ‘It’s Not Over Yet’ hitmakers – made up of James Righton, Jamie Reynolds, and Simon Taylor-Davis – are said to have talked about a possible reunion after getting together in London, four years after they went their separate ways.
A source said: “After years doing their own thing, the Klaxons are finally thinking about coming back together.
“For the first time in ages they’re now all settled in London and met up recently to repair cracks in their relationship.”
Should they decide to reunite, the band are expected to hit the road for some shows before a “full-on comeback”.
The source added to The Sun newspaper: “They’ve had their time working on other projects and are hoping to play some more gigs together to start with before making a full-on comeback.”
As well as being known for his keyboard skills in Klaxons, James fixed himself firmly in the show business world when he married Keira Knightley in 2013, and the couple have three-year-old daughter Edie.
Since the band’s split, he went on to tour with electronic project Shock Machine, while Jamie formed group Youth Of The Apocalypse with Gorillaz guitarist Jeff Wooton and bass player Seye Adelekan, as well as DJ Twiggy Garcia, rapper Young Lazurus, and drummer Jay Sharrock.
Despite their 2015 split, Klaxons still appear to have plenty of fans listening to their music, which showed in December when they shared their 2018 Spotify listening figures.
The stats stated that their tunes had been streamed 20 million times in 65 different countries.
Alongside the data, they wrote on Twitter: “A Huge Thanks to All Who Listened on @Spotify this Year”

Miley Cyrus and Shawn Mendes tease Dolly Parton Grammys tribute

OHMYGOSSIP — Miley Cyrus and Shawn Mendes look set to pay tribute to Dolly Parton with a duet at the Grammys.
The pop stars set tongues wagging that they were set to perform together earlier this week, when the ‘Nothing Breaks Like a Heart’ hitmaker shared a picture of herself rehearsing in front of some of the ‘Stitches’ singer’s instruments.
Eagle-eyed fans of Shawn, 20 – who is nominated for Pop Album of The Year for his self-titled third studio album and Song of The Year for hit single ‘In My Blood’ – noticed that his name was written on one of the guitars.
Miley, 26, had captioned the Instagram post: “Gram Gram rehearsals! Performing this Sunday at the @recordingacademy ! (sic)”
TMZ also reported that they were working on a secret single together.
And now the pair have taken to Instagram to share new pictures of them both rocking leather jackets with caricatures of Dolly – who is godmother to Miley – emblazoned on them, and hinted they could be performing the country music legend’s Kenny Rogers duet ‘Islands in the Stream’ for the star-studded tribute to the 73-year-old music icon.
Quoting the lyrics from the 1983 hit, Miley captioned the photo of the pair: “This could be the year for the real thing.”
Miley’s collaborator, producer Mark Ronson, also shared a picture of himself on stage with them on his Instagram profile, and teased: “Man, these kids really sound dreamy together.”
Katy Perry and Kacey Musgraves are also to join in the star-studded tribute at The Staples Center in Los Angeles on Sunday (10.02.19).
The ‘9 to 5’ hitmaker will take to the stage to perform new music from her album ‘Dumplin”, and the special tribute segment will see Katy, Kacey, Little Big Town and Maren Morris singing a medley of the music legend’s country hits.
Kacey tweeted: “*D O L L Y dream come true, fully materialized* (sic)”
Dolly – who is an eight-time Grammy Award winner – will be honoured with the 2019 MusiCares Person Of The Year prize at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.

Dean Gaffney in car crash

OHMYGOSSIP — Dean Gaffney has been involved in a car crash.
The ‘EastEnders’ actor was reportedly travelling with a female passenger on the M25 near Brentwood, Essex, when a collision occurred, and police attended the scene but fortunately nobody was harmed in the incident.
Speaking about the accident, which he described as a “bump”, Dean – who is dating Rebekah Ward – told The Sun Online: “There has been a crash which is why I’m driving a hire car.”
The 40-year-old star – who is known for playing Robbie Jackson in the BBC One soap – had a £33,000 Mercedes motor delivered to the show’s set in March 2018 to mark the end of his driving ban.
In June 2017, Dean was handed a nine-month motoring ban and slapped with a £1,000 fine after refusing to say who was behind the wheel of his car when the vehicle was spotted doing 38mph in a 30mph zone in Liverpool in January 2016.
He had pleaded not guilty to the charge of failing to give police information.
In 2013, Dean was involved in a serious car accident, which resulted in him undergoing “major surgery” on his skull after he was rushed to hospital.
He crashed into the central reservation while driving along the A38.
A spokesperson for Derbyshire Police said: “We can confirm that a 34-year-old man was involved in a collision on the A38 at around 10.45pm last night.
“There was just one car involved that hit the central reservation. He was taken to Royal Derby Hospital where he received treatment for head injuries but those injuries aren’t thought to be life-threatening.”

Kevin Clifton hasn’t been asked back to Strictly yet

OHMYGOSSIP — Kevin Clifton hasn’t been asked back to ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ yet.
The 36-year-old professional dancer was crowned the winner of the BBC One ballroom and Latin show with television presenter Stacey Dooley last year, and he’s hoping to be back for the next series later this year.
However, he’s revealed that he’s still waiting to be phoned up by the producers to renew his contract.
He told BBC Radio Humberside: “They ask us, and probably in the next month or two they’ll start making phone calls to everyone to talk about the next series and whether they want you back on the show or not.
“You’re never contracted to more than just the series that you’re on.
“Hopefully, they’ll give me a call and say, ‘We’d love to have you back for the 2019 series’, and then I’ll be doing that from August to Christmas.”
Despite lifting the glitter ball trophy with the 31-year-old documentary maker, Kevin admitted: “You never want to count your chickens.”
Kevin previously admitted that dancing with Stacey had made him “fall in love” with dancing again following his split from ex-wife Karen Clifton.
He said: “I just want to say thank you to you … you helped me fall in love with dancing again.”
The Grimsby-born hunk also admitted he never thought he would win last year.
He said: “I was so excited. It was amazing because I didn’t expect it at all.
“My parents were sat to the left of us and I thought because we were bottom of the judges leaderboard and Craig had hammered us a bit, I thought, ‘Well there’s no chance we’re gonna win’.
“I actually looked over to my mum and dad and gave them a little ‘Oh well there’s that then’, and they gave me one back because they didn’t think we were gonna win either so we just had this little moment.
“Me and Stace are stood there not even bothered, cool as a cucumber, we didn’t think we were gonna win and when Tess said ‘Stacey and Kevin’, my mum and dad shot up and started screaming and my knees gave way and I dropped to the floor.”

Fantastic Beats 3 won’t start filming till autumn

OHMYGOSSIP — The third ‘Fantastic Beasts’ film was delayed because it’s so “gigantic”.
Dan Fogler – who plays Jacob Kowalski in the ‘Harry Potter’ spin-off franchise – has claimed that they won’t start filming the follow-up to last year’s ‘Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald’ until later this year, as the next instalment of the wizarding fantasy is “bigger” than the last two movies put together and they don’t want to “rush” it.
Fogler told Hey U Guys: “Yeah, we start in the Fall. The movie is going to be gigantic! The reason we were given is that the movie is bigger than the first two combined.
“They needed more time to prep and they didn’t want to rush anything so they pushed it back.”
Though no further details have emerged about the third movie, it’s expected to focus on the complex relationship between Grindelwald (Johnny Depp) and Dumbledore (Jude Law).
There are set to be five movies based on magizoologist Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne).
David Yates will direct with J.K. Rowling, David Heyman, Steve Kloves and Lionel Wigram producing again.
Award-winning author Rowling revealed back in June last year that she had started penning the script for ‘Fantastic Beasts 3’.
She tweeted: “I’ve just finished the fourth Galbraith novel, ‘Lethal White’, and I’m now writing the screenplay for ‘Fantastic Beasts 3’.”
The first movie in the saga, ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ came out in 2016 and was a huge hit at the box office.
However, last year’s film received mixed reviews from fans and critics alike – mainly due to Depp being re-cast as Grindelwald, despite being accused of domestic violence by ex-wife Amber Heard in her court filings prior to their divorce.
Rowling admitted she considered recasting the role, but she insisted that she was ultimately comfortable with the decision to hire the 55-year-old actor.
Depp said at the time: “I felt bad for JK having to field all these various feelings from people out there. I felt bad that she had to take that.”
The new movie is expected to hit screens in 2020.

Matthew Perry is back in therapy

OHMYGOSSIP — Matthew Perry was only “kicked out” of therapy for one session.
The former ‘Friends’ star – who played Chandler Bing on the hugely popular US sitcom – logged on to Twitter earlier this week to tell his 1.26 million followers that he wasn’t able to carry on with his meeting with a therapist.
But he has since reassured his fans and explained that it was just for that day and he’s back to therapy, “where he belongs”, now.
He had tweeted: “I got kicked out of therapy today.”
But he added yesterday (07.02.19): “Easy guys, it was just one session. I’m back in therapy where I belong:) (sic)”
Five months ago, the 49-year-old actor took to the micro-blogging site to reveal he was hospitalised for three months after undergoing an emergency operation to fix a gastrointestinal perforation, which causes severe abdominal pain and tenderness and can be fatal.
Sources said that he was “very sick” when he was taken into hospital, and his lengthy recovery time was needed as “healing can be complicated” following the surgery.
They said: “Matthew was very sick when he was hospitalised; his condition was very serious. A gastrointestinal surgery is very complex, and the healing can be complicated.”
Matthew left hospital a day after taking to social media to reveal the news.
He wrote: “Three months in a hospital bed. Check.”
His representative had asked for “privacy” while he recovered.
They said at the time: “Matthew recently underwent surgery in a Los Angeles hospital to repair a gastrointestinal perforation. He is grateful for the concern and asks for continued privacy as he heals.”
A gastrointestinal perforation or ruptured bowel occurs when a hole develops in the lining of the gastrointestinal tract and can be caused by illnesses such as Crohn’s disease, colitis and appendicitis.
Although it is usually repairable, doctors have to work fast to prevent the contents of the gastrointestinal tract from spilling out into the stomach and causing an infection.
Once an infection develops, it can lead to sepsis and ultimately cause death.
Exact details on Matthew’s surgery were not revealed, but he has been very open in the past about his struggles with alcohol abuse, which can contribute to digestive health issues.
The actor completed a 48-day programme in rehab for Vicodin addiction in 1997, after he turned to the drug to stop him from “drinking as much” as he was.
In 2001, he checked back into a rehab facility to recover from his use of Vicodin, methadone, amphetamines, and alcohol.
He said previously: “I’ve had a lot of ups and downs in my life and a lot of wonderful accolades but the best thing about me is that if an alcoholic comes up to me and says, ‘Will you help me stop drinking?’ I will say, ‘Yes. I know how to do that.’ ”

Michelle Pfeiffer: Instagram’s ‘terrifying’

OHMYGOSSIP — Michelle Pfeiffer has found Instagram “terrifying”.
The 60-year-old actress recently signed up to the photo sharing site and admits she finds it difficult to comprehend because she has “spent her entire life” trying to “avoid” the exposure of social media.
She said: “It’s been terrifying for me, honestly. I’ve spent my entire life avoiding, doing as little as possible, in terms of exposure – literally the least that I could get away with as an actress.”
Michelle was inspired to join the social media revolution when her co-stars posted a welcome message for her online when she joined the cast of ‘Maleficent 2’ and she was unable to respond.
She added to the March issue of InStyle magazine: “It was so sweet, and I wanted to respond, but I couldn’t. I had no format. I didn’t tweet. I didn’t have Instagram. I had nothing. But I’ve started paying more attention. And I’ve been following other celebrities who I think are as private as I am, and even they are venturing into the Instagram world. So I’m dipping my toe in. I’ll be very tentative in the beginning. But in a weird way, I’m kind of excited about it.”
The ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp’ star had previously opened up about why she has only just decided to give in and use the app, explaining that she feared “saying the wrong thing” and getting “snarky” comments.
She confessed: “I’ve spent my whole life doing as little as possible and hiding out. I’ve been really, honestly, anxious about entering into the world of social media, and just fearing I’ll say the wrong thing and somebody’s gonna get snarky on my feed.”
Michelle has many friends on Instagram and felt like she was missing out on having “fun” and interacting with her fans.
On why she signed up now, she added: “I just started realising that I tend to get very curious because so many of my friends have started to engage on Instagram and they seem to be having a lot of fun with it, and I think that I realised that it’s actually a really good way to engage with people, and potentially with my fans.”

Kanye West wanted to ‘Ye-ify’ a $14m condo

OHMYGOSSIP — Kanye West reportedly wanted to “Ye-ify” a $14 million condo.
The 41-year-old rapper was said to have lined up the luxury Miami home for his wife Kim Kardashian West as a Christmas gift, and it seems he wanted to give it a bit of a makeover before eventually deciding to pull out of the deal instead.
According to Page Six, the star was overheard talking about plans to “Ye-ify” the property when he first visited because he wasn’t happy with the energy of what has been nicknamed the “billionaire beach bunker”.
Sources have claimed other rich residents at the home in Faena House weren’t impressed with his plans.
However, the couple – who have reportedly purchased a second Los Angeles mansion right next to their current digs – later pulled out of the deal over security concerns.
The ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star and her spouse – who have North, five, Saint, three, and Chicago, 12 months, and are expecting their fourth via a surrogate – are now looking into property in the Bahamas or other tropical destinations that their whole family will be able to enjoy.
And at the top of the list for their dream home is somewhere private and secluded as they pulled out of the Miami Beach abode after being photographed on its balcony and realising it wasn’t right for them.
Unfortunately for the couple, Kanye will lose the $600,000 down payment he made on the property when he reserved it as a Christmas gift for the 38-year-old beauty.
The 4,700 square foot property featured four bedrooms and five-and-a-half bathrooms, as well as a huge terrace.
And that’s not all, as the building has a gym, pool and spa for residents to use, as well as offering a concierge service.
A source previously said of the purchase: “Kanye saw the property during Art Basel in December and bought it as a Christmas present for Kim. It was a complete surprise for her.”

Roger Mathews asks for primary physical custody of kids

OHMYGOSSIP — Roger Mathews wants primary physical custody of his and Jenni ‘JWoww’ Farley’s children.
The ‘Jersey Shore’ star is locked in a bitter divorce battle with her estranged husband and he has now responded to her court filing to ask for primary physical custody and joint legal custody of their two children – Meilani, four, and Greyson, two.
In the documents, Roger is asking for a “parenting time schedule that is in the children’s best interest” and has requested his ex pays him a “reasonable” amount for child support as well as other educational related costs. He is also asking for his alimony and attorney’s fees to be paid.
His filing comes just a few days after JWoww shared footage of Roger allegedly attacking her.
She wrote in a statement: “I have spent the last few months trying to protect our children from public humiliation, because as parents, WE ARE SUPPOSED TO PROTECT THEM. I wanted to handle this out of the spotlight because our silence is their greater good.
“Even when you tried to disgrace my name, make false accusations and even point-blank lie… I still remained silent as challenging as it was… why? Because, greater good. I can no longer sit idly by while you mistreat and malign me in such an egregious manner. You have presented yourself to the public as a praiseworthy father and a husband who has been suffering by my alleged actions and behaviour. Your postings are consumed with inaccuracies, false statements, self-serving comments, outright misrepresentations and blatant lies.”
And in a post a few days later, Roger proposed a “truce” between the pair.
He shared: “You painted me as a woman beater. The facts are these. No one, man or woman, husband or wife has the right to put their hands on each other. I take responsibility for that night in question, and one other night that I can think of that, I pushed you. You edited out your actions and violent behaviour prior to me pushing you which I knew you would do.”

Rylan Clark-Neal builds Big Brother Diary Room in house

OHMYGOSSIP — Rylan Clark-Neal has built his own ‘Big Brother’ Diary Room inside his house.
The 30-year-old TV presenter – who won Celebrity Big Brother’s 11th series in 2013 and hosted ‘Big Brother’s Bit on the Side’ from 2013 to 2018 – is so passionate about keeping the spirit of the reality TV show alive that he has erected a shrine to the series in his own abode.
Rylan shared a video on Twitter of his new room – which is fully equipped with an LED button in the shape of Big Brother’s eye logo, and a sliding door – and said: “It’s my new favourite room in my house.
“We all know how much I’m obsessed by ‘Big Brother’ and I have nothing better to do with my time so I built a Diary Room.
“It looks quite like the Diary Room as well – which is quite exciting.
“Some people sell stuff on eBay from the ‘Big Brother’ – fair enough things are being thrown away, but I think it’s naughty. They should put it in a museum or something.
“There should be some ‘Big Brother’ museum. I think there should be some ‘Big Brother’ exhibition. I’d do it definitely.
“I’ve loads of things from over the years like all the Diary Room chairs. I’d go.”
In the video, the Rylan was most excited to show off his new Diary Room chair – which was the actual furniture piece from the year he won the show.
Rylan believes he will appear in another ‘Big Brother’, despite the hit reality show being cancelled last year.
He said: “Whether I’m delusional or not, I’ve definitely not done my last ‘Big Brother’ I know that.
“Even Psychic Alex said that, my psychic from ‘Ghost Hunter’. She said, ‘No, you’ll do it again.’ ”

Martin Lewis in tears with ‘agonising’ throat ulcer

OHMYGOSSIP — Martin Lewis has been left in tears by an “agonising” throat ulcer making it “impossible” for him to do live TV work.
The Money Saving Expert founder hasn’t been able to leave the house for the past four days due to the painful condition, and he was forced to cancel an appearance on ‘Good Morning Britain’ this week.
Taking to Facebook, the ‘Martin Lewis Money Show’ star said: “Throatgate day 4. Thanks for all the well wishes. I wanted to give you an honest update as so many of you have been asking and been so kind.
“Sadly, I’m no better – you’ll have seen I couldn’t do Good Morning Britain today – live TV is impossible.
“Last night I saw a specialist who confirmed I’ve a large, vicious ulcer in my throat (I won’t post a picture of it) – not a cold/flu.
“Unfortunately eating and speaking are truly agonising, causing the left of my face and neck to go into spasm – leaving me close (or sometimes in) tears.
“There is no treatment but to wait, though I’m finding that tough as there’s no sign of improvement and sleeping is hard. (sic)”
The 46-year-old journalist – who hosts financial advice segments on ‘This Morning’ – is going to try to film some links for his own Monday show in advance.
He added: “I’m going to go and try and film the links for my Monday show today. I’ve been given a special local anaesthetic to get me through it (I’ve been told doing it won’t make things worse).
“The team are very considerate – I won’t be able to do retakes – and will have to rest 20 minutes before each take.
“I must admit to literally shaking with nerves about leaving the house to do it, but I’m doing it as I want to, as sitting in the house in pain has made me rather low. (sic)”

Bring Me The Horizon want Coronation Street cameo

OHMYGOSSIP — Bring Me The Horizon want a ‘Coronation Street’ cameo.
The band’s bassist Matt Kean is said to be “desperate” to appear on the cobbles, and as a result the group’s representatives have made contact with the ITV soap’s bosses to see if the ‘Sleepwalking’ hitmakers can grace Weatherfield with their presence soon.
A source close to the band said: “Matt has always loved ‘Corrie’ and is desperate for a cameo on the show.
“Their team have reached out to soap bosses to try to make it a reality and think it could be a fun thing for viewers too.”
One option for the band could be a scene involving Weatherfield’s new tattoo shop, because the group have a number of inkings between them.
The source added to The Sun newspaper: “The Street got a tattoo shop last year and they suggested a scene linked to that, seeing as they have their fair share of body art.”
But Bring Me the Horizon are not the only huge music stars who have an eye on the cobbles.
Last year, Katy Perry admitted she loves catching up with the goings-on in Weatherfield, and ‘EastEnders’, when she is in the UK.
She said: “I am obsessed with this country. I fall in love with the English very easily.
“I like to watch ‘Coronation Street’ and ‘EastEnders’.”
Rolling Stones frontman Sir Mick Jagger is also a big ‘Corrie’ fan, and he made a quip about the show’s former serial killer Pat Phelan (Connor McIntyre) during the band’s Old Trafford gig in the city in June.
He told the crowd: “We went to the Northern Quarter. We went down the Curry Mile and I think I saw Pat Phelan. He was eating some papadums!”

Len Goodman slams plan to scrap free TV licences for pensioners

OHMYGOSSIP — Len Goodman has blasted plans to scrap free TV licences for pensioners.
The 74-year-old star has described television as a “precious window to the modern world” for many elderly people who have become lonely in their old age, after potential proposals were unveiled to make over-75s pay for the privilege.
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “For some older people telly is their only companion. It’s what breaks the day up when they don’t see anyone and keeps them in touch with the news.
“TV provides entertainment and educational value for older people.
“But it’s a much greater source of comfort and companionship to those living in loneliness and those who are housebound. For the chronically lonely TV must be a precious window to the modern world.”
Former ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ judge Len added it would be a “worry” for may pensioners, who might not be able to afford the £150.50 fee – which will rise to £154.50 per year in April.
Len is backing Age UK’s Switched Off: Save Free TV for Over-75s campaign, and the star – who is an ambassador for the charity – has spoken out about loneliness for older people.
He added: “Life is one big rush and no one has time to stop and chat. But a friendly natter can make an enormous difference.”
Len previously hinted at working towards retirement, opening up on the most recent season of US show ‘Dancing With The Stars’, which finished in November.
He said at the time: “This may be my last season. It’s the end of my contract and they may not what to have me any more. They might have had enough of me.
“I don’t want to retire totally but I’m quite happy doing nothing – reading a book and pottering in the garden.”
