Nadiya Hussain had a parsley induced panic attack

OHMYGOSSIP — Nadiya Hussain once suffered a panic attack when she was sent the wrong herb in online food shop.
The ‘Great British Bake Off’ winner has opened up on how her life is affected by the anxiety triggered episodes and over a year ago she had a bad attack after she received parsley instead of coriander in a delivery.
Speaking to Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford on ‘This Morning’, she said: “Yeah it’s something that I don’t think is ever gonna go away. Sometimes, for example, I had a food shop come in about a year-and-a-half ago, and this is something I always remember and I ordered coriander and they gave me parsley. That was it. I had a panic attack just, it was bubbling away all day, then it just rose to the surface and I said, ‘Move the kids away, I can’t have them see me like this.’
“It feels breathless and it feels like you’re going to die – it sounds so dramatic but it’s not but that’s exactly the feeling you get. For me its patterns, so if I’m used to doing something a certain way and somebody says you have to do this a little bit different, I don’t know if it’s something that will ever go away. I haven’t had treatment for it, I use my baking and my writing as therapy and expression. I can just stop and think ‘I can do a little bit of writing’.”
Nadiya, 34, is releasing her second novel ‘The Fall and Rise of the Amir Sisters’, which is a follow up to her first fiction book about faith, family and the sisterhood between four siblings.
Nadiya – who has three sisters and two brothers – has written about sex in her latest tome and she admits the racier parts mean that she can’t let her mother read the book.
The TV cook – whose family are Muslim – said: “The mum in the book talks about sex quite a lot and, I’m even saying the say the word and I’m thinking I can hear my mum, she would be rolling her eyes, I can feel her eyes rolling already because we don’t even say that word round her, so for her, I could never give her the book to read. My kids have read it. My boys are 10 and 11 – they think it’s great. If they can pick it up and read it – it’s such an easy read.
“I put taboo subjects in there – it doesn’t matter what culture you’re from – it’s something people don’t want to talk about so where I’ve got the dynamic of four sisters, I can go anywhere with it. These lives are in your hands, there’s something really powerful writing characters like that. Fertility is something so lighthearted and serious at the same time.”

The Hairy Bikers turned down Dancing On Ice

OHMYGOSSIP — The Hairy Bikers turned down ‘Dancing On Ice’.
The culinary duo, Si King, 51 and Dave Myers, 60, have revealed that they spurned the opportunity to appear on the ITV skating competition because they have “delicate ankles” which would not be ideal for the slippery rink.
Speaking to The Daily Star newspaper, Dave said: “We did turn down ‘Dancing On Ice’. I have delicate ankles. But let’s say these offers are discussed on a job-by-job basis!”
Despite his reluctance to skate, Dave did appear on the eleventh series of ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ back in 2013.
The Hairy Bikers achieved huge success with their cookbook ‘The Hairy Dieters’ – which won a National Book Award in 2012 – which shared the recipes which helped the friends lose around six stone between them.
The duo, who burst onto the TV cooking show scene with their calorific man-sized meals, both realised they had to do something about their fitness when they filming in Turin, Italy, and were both struggling to cope with heat as they exerted themselves.
Si said: “Celebrity diets aren’t really us – it’s all up to each of us to cut our own groove, I remember when we were out in Turin filming a show and we were making the world’s biggest chocolate cake and both melting and sweating in the heat because we were so unfit.
“That’s when we knew something really had to change. We’re just two old blokes. But just look at the pressure all of our unhealthy lives are having on the NHS. We should all be responsible for helping ourselves.”
Dave added: I used to eat a pack of butter a day! Now I use Benecol instead which is a revolution. We love food and learnt to experiment with that instead.”

Amber Davies dreamed of being a social media queen

OHMYGOSSIP — Amber Davies “dreamt about having loads of followers” on social media when she was young.
The former ‘Love Island’ star, who has 1.6 million followers on Instagram and 374,000 on Twitter, “loves social media” and isn’t ashamed to admit she’s always been ambitious about acquiring a large online following, even when she was a kid.
In an interview with The London Evening Standard newspaper, Amber, 22, said: “When I was young I always used to dream about having loads of followers. I love social media and I’m not scared to say it. I love seeing what other people do. I’m rooting for people.”
The brunette beauty won the ITV reality dating series alongside ex-boyfriend Kem Cetinay in 2017, catapulting herself to fame.
Amber thinks “everybody loves” reality stars because of how relatable they are, but she admits splitting from Kem in the public eye months after the show was one of the “hardest things” she’s ever had to endure.
She said: “People have big opinions on reality stars. But everybody loves us because we’re real. I think some people think we’re robots, that’s one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to go through: a break-up in the media. And I wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy.”
Amber will soon set make her theatre debut in the upcoming West End show ‘9 to 5: The Musical’ and the star believes the production – which is based on the 1980 film of the same name and has been produced by the movie’s star Dolly Parton – which tells the story of three women plotting against their sexist boss is being staged at an important time.
She said: “If you were to put any show on in the West End, this one is perfect because we’re sending out a clear message: the pay gap is still an issue, stereotyping is still an issue.”

Charlotte Crosby reveals baby plan

OHMYGOSSIP — Charlotte Crosby wants to have a baby with her boyfriend Joshua Ritchie next year.
The 28-year-old reality star is “ready to start a family” with her 24-year-old partner Josh and although her man is younger than her Charlotte says it “seems like he’s on board”.
Quizzed on when she might get pregnant during an interview on ‘Good morning Britain’, she replied: “Next year! Me and Josh.
“I would like to yes, I’m 29 this year so I’ll be 30 next year and I’m really ready to start a family.”
When asked if former ‘Love Island’ contestant Joshua, 24, is ready to be a dad, Charlotte replied: “He’s four years younger than me, we talk a lot about it and he seems like he’s on board.”
Speculation was sparked that the former ‘Geordie Shore’ star may be pregnant after she posted a picture of herself cradling her tummy on Instagram, however, the brunette beauty insisted that she was simply trying to hide a bloated stomach.
She said: “I’m not pregnant no, I have a food intolerance to gluten and I get really bloated. We’d had a big meal and I’d had some bread, so I put my hand over my tummy just to hide it a little bit as I can’t control the bloating when it comes out and then all of a sudden I’m pregnant.”
Charlotte split with fellow reality star Stephan Bear in December 2017 and recently bid farewell to the tattoo tribute to her former partner.
She underwent laser removal surgery last year to get the half bear/half cheetah on her back lasered off, as well as the basic fish he drew on her wrist.

Beth Tweddle suing The Jump following 2016 accident

OHMYGOSSIP — Beth Tweddle is suing ‘The Jump’ after a horror injury in 2016 left her temporarily unable to walk.
The Olympic Bronze medallist gymnast is taking legal action against the makers of the Channel 4 reality show, in which contestants compete in a host of winter sports, as her recovery is “still ongoing” and she still suffers from the injury now, however, the defendants involved have so far denied all liability for her injuries.
In a statement, she said: “It’s been a long journey and my recovery is still ongoing. I’m not sure I’ll ever be 100 per cent again.
“The effects of my accident still interrupt my daily life and, aside from the severe physical injuries at the start, the hardest part of the recovery process has been the psychological element – dealing with and processing the whole accident and the aftermath of what happened.”
The incident occurred during ski training for the reality show when the 33-year-old gymnast smashed into barriers while practicing a jump, resulting in her breaking her neck.
The retired athlete – who announced she was pregnant with her first child with husband Andy Allen in December – was airlifted to hospital from the ski slope in Austria, and has since suffered flashbacks of the traumatic incident.
She added: “I said before that I don’t want this accident to define me and I work hard every day to ensure that isn’t the case.
“It’s disappointing that we have had to seek court proceedings as we had hoped the makers of the programme might be willing to work with us to settle the case.
“I just want to make sure that there is full accountability for people involved in creating shows like this and to help prevent others having to go through what I have for the past three years.”

Diane Kruger was waiting for the right person to start a family with

OHMYGOSSIP — Diane Kruger was “too selfish” to have children for much of her adult life.
The 42-year-old actress and her boyfriend Norman Reedus welcomed their first child together into the world last November and the ‘Inglourious Basterds’ star readily admits she was too career focused to become a mother earlier in her life and then when she started to yearn for a baby in her 30s she had to wait to find the “right person”.
Speaking to NET-A-PORTER’s weekly digital magazine PorterEdit, she said: “I didn’t think I wanted children for a long time. I was too selfish. But by the time I got to about 35, I thought, yes, I probably do want one. But then you have to wait for the right person to come along.”
Diane – who has chosen not to share her daughter’s name or likeness with the world – revealed that Norman has taught her a lot about parenting because he is already so experienced as he has a 19-year-old son Mingus from his previous relationship with Helena Christensen, whom he dated from 1998 to 2003.
She said: “[Norman] is so calm, and he teaches me a lot, because he’s done it before. There’s definitely something to be said for being with someone who is doing it for the second time.”
The ‘Troy’ star is open to getting married in the future because she would love to have her own special day with Norman, but marriage is not important to her for financial or religious reasons.
She said: “Never say never [to marriage]. I would have a party. I’d like to wear a nice dress. But I’m not religious, so that aspect of marriage doesn’t mean anything to me. There’s obviously a financial security that comes with marriage, but I’m financially independent – I don’t need anyone for that.”

Maya Jama gets a pet dog with boyfriend Stormzy

OHMYGOSSIP — Maya Jama and Stomzy have got a pet dog.
The 24-year-old presenter revealed that she and her 25-year-old rapper boyfriend recently welcomed a mutt mate into their home who they have called Enzo and the pair love walking their pet around the London area where they live.
Maya said: “We’ve got a dog now, Enzo, it’s nice to have places to walk. I’ve always loved this city.”
The BBC Radio 1 DJ has been dating the grime artist for three years after the pair met at Red Bull Culture Clash in 2016.
Although the couple are focused on their life together now, Maya can’t help but let her mind wander to the future and she has even thought about what she wants to happen when she dies.
The broadcaster would rather be cremated than buried, however, she isn’t keen on the idea of being of her ashes being scattered in a river and would prefer to have her remains end up in a car.
Speaking to ES Magazine, she said: “I’d like to be cremated, but I wouldn’t want to be thrown in the Thames. Maybe in a park – then they could put tree seeds in with me, so I could grow through a tree. I like that idea.”
The ‘Circle’ host also spilled that she likes to work out in her garden with her personal trainer, but admitted that before she had a trainer and her own garden, she used to run in parks as she prefers to exercise outdoors.
She said: “I’m super lucky, because I’ve got a personal trainer, so I train mostly in my garden. But even before I had a trainer or a garden, it would be in the parks. I find no one watches you outside, whereas in the gym everyone’s staring.”

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Love, Simon’, ‘The Favourite’, and ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ are among the 2019 GLAAD Media Award nominees.
The annual award ceremony held by GLAAD (the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) is set to take place this year on April 12, and on Friday (25.01.19) the list of nominations was revealed, including nods for romantic comedy ‘Love, Simon’, period drama ‘The Favourite’, and comedy movie ‘Crazy Rich Asians’.
Both ‘Love, Simon’ and ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ will battle it out in the fight for Outstanding Film – Wide Release, whilst ‘The Favourite’ is competing for Outstanding Film – Limited Release.
Other wide release nominees include ‘Deadpool’ follow-up ‘Deadpool 2’, John Cena starrer ‘Blockers’, and thriller flick ‘The Girl in the Spider’s Web’.
‘The Favourite’, meanwhile, is facing competition from films including ‘Boy Erased’, ‘The Miseducation of Cameron Post’, ‘Can You Ever Forgive Me?’, ‘Disobedience’, ‘1985’, ‘Hearts Beat Loud’, ‘A Kid Like Jake’, ‘Saturday Church’, and ‘We the Animals’.
Elsewhere in the nominations, shows such as ‘Billions’, ‘Grey’s Anatomy’, ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’, and ‘Shadowhunters’ will battle it out for Outstanding Drama Series, whilst ‘Dear White People’, ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’, ‘Modern Family’, and ‘Will & Grace’ are all up for Outstanding Comedy Series.
In Outstanding Music Artist, Troye Sivan will take on the likes of Hayley Kiyoko, Janelle Monae, Years & Years, Brockhampton, and Christine and the Queens for the gong.
The nominations come after it was revealed on Thursday (24.01.19) that Queen biopic ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ has had its Outstanding Film nomination removed following the accusations of sexual assault and misconduct against the film’s director Bryan Singer.
GLAAD said in a statement: “The impact of the film is undeniable. We believe, however, that we must send a clear and unequivocal message to LGBTQ youth and all survivors of sexual assault that GLAAD and our community will stand with survivors and will not be silent when it comes to protecting them from those who would do them harm.
“Other films that involve Singer now or in the future should take note of the backlash to The Atlantic story and other previous allegations. The industry cannot let those who perpetuate harms against anyone – especially vulnerable young people – go unnoticed or unchecked any longer.”

Maisie Williams: Fans won’t be satisfied with Game of Thrones ending

OHMYGOSSIP — Maisie Williams doesn’t think fans will be “satisfied” with the ‘Game of Thrones’ ending.
The 21-year-old actress stars as Arya Stark in the hit HBO fantasy drama, which is due to air its eighth and final season in April this year, and whilst millions of fans are waiting with baited breath to find out how the saga ends, Maisie has revealed it may not be the ending people are hoping for.
She told Sky News: “I don’t know that anyone is going to be satisfied. No one wants it to end, you know, but I’m really proud of this final season. I’ve always felt ashamed to say things like that, but I am. I’m really proud of all the work we’ve put it, for me it’s the right time. I hope people like it.”
But her co-star Kit Harington, who plays Jon Snow, insisted recently that no matter what the ending will be, fans won’t be happy because nobody wants to say goodbye to the popular programme.
He said: “It’s like when you finish a book, you’re not happy it’s over are you? You don’t finish a good book and say, ‘I’m happy I finished that.’ But you have this grief that it’s over, and it’s exactly same with nine years doing this show. No matter how it ended, or how it does end, there’s always this bit of you that’s like, ‘oh’; there’s this loss around it.”
Meanwhile, Kit previously said that filming for the show’s final episodes left all the cast so “sleep deprived” and “broken”, that they’d “had enough” of being on set by the time the programme wrapped.
He said: “The last season of ‘Thrones’, seemed to be designed to break us. I remember everyone walking around towards the end going, ‘I’ve had enough now. I love this, it’s been the best thing in my life, I’ll miss it one day – but I’m done.'”
And fellow co-star Gwendoline Christie teased that viewers are in for a shock so big they’ll need to seek “professional help”.
The 40-year-old actress – who stars as Brienne of Tarth – said: “You’re going to need therapy. I think just the show ending is going to send all of the world into professional help.”

Angelina Jolie working on children’s current affairs show

OHMYGOSSIP — Angelina Jolie is set to executive produce a current affairs TV show for children.
The 43-year-old actress – who has Maddox, 17, Pax, 15, Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 12, and 10-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox with her ex-husband Brad Pitt – has teamed up with BBC Learning, BBC World Studios, and Microsoft Education to launch an English-language TV show aimed at adolescent audiences, which will tackle current affairs.
According to a press release, the prime objective of the show is “to help children have access to impartial information of the highest editorial standard and bring a deeper understanding of the different issues their peers face in other parts of the world.”
The show will first be commissioned for a pilot series consisting of 10 weekly half-hour episodes, which will be produced by the BBC World Service, and executive produced by Angelina.
Once the English-language version of the show has been launched, there are then plans to expand to multiple languages.
The ‘Maleficent’ actress said in a statement: “All of us who have come together on this project feel a great responsibility towards young people. We want to make sure that we are able to put forward a news program that helps to give them a broad view of the world they live in and the issues they face, and that helps connect them to other children around the world.”
Meanwhile, Angelina recently said she’d love for her own children to embrace their rebellious streak, because she doesn’t want them to be well-behaved all the time.
She said: “It’s funny – children can do two things. They can make you grow up, and you do, and they also add a sense of wild themselves.
“They all have a good rebellious streak that is wonderful and curious. And I don’t want them to be perfectly behaved little people that just say what’s absolutely appropriate because I say so – they have to find themselves.”

Gisele Bundchen: Boyz II Men helped me learn English

OHMYGOSSIP — Gisele Bundchen credits Boyz II Men with helping her learn English.
The 38-year-old Brazilian model appeared with the R&B group during a ‘Carpool Karaoke’ episode which was released exclusively on Apple Music on Friday (25.01.19), and told the ‘End of the Road’ hitmakers that it was thanks to their music that she managed to learn English when she moved to New York at just 16 years old.
In a special teaser clip for the episode, she said: “So I moved to New York City when I was 16 years old. I didn’t speak a word of English. But my sister, she was like ‘Here, take my cassette.’ The cassette tape she made for me, one side was Boyz II Men, the other side was Mariah [Carey].
“I would literally be with this Walkman all day. I was like, ‘I’m gonna learn English and that’s it!’ I have to say, you guys were my teachers so thank you.”
Meanwhile, Gisele recently praised meditation for helping her to overcome her “panic attacks”, which she has been suffering with since she was in her early 20s.
She said: “I started meditating in my early 20s, after having severe panic attacks … that’s one of the very important tools that helped me … it actually gave me a new life. When you start being loving with yourself, being loving with others, filling your mind with affirmations and loving thoughts, you create more of that in your life, and that becomes more of your reality.”
Gisele has even tried to get her husband and NFL star Tom Brady – with whom she has son Benjamin, nine, and daughter Vivian, six – involved, but says he’s not as “diligent” with the practice as she is.
She added: “He has meditated, but I don’t think he’s as diligent as I am with meditation. For me, it came from something that has helped me heal from something that was so challenging in my life. Maybe because he hasn’t had the same need as me, maybe for him, it hasn’t become something so consistent.”

Jada Pinkett Smith went skydiving as gift for Will Smith

OHMYGOSSIP — Jada Pinkett Smith went skydiving as a birthday gift for her husband Will Smith.
The 47-year-old actress was shocked when her husband told her the only thing he wanted for his 50th birthday in September was for her to jump out of a plane, but she says she accepted his odd request because it’s “hard to find” other things to buy him as gifts.
She said: “Will turned 50 and so he said, ‘The only thing I want for my birthday, a birthday gift from you, is to jump out of a plane.’
“It’s hard to find things for Will because he doesn’t necessarily like objects. He doesn’t like material things. So I was like, ‘Man, if that’s what you really want, then daggonit I’ll do it.’ I did it for his 50th cause that’s what he wanted.”
The ‘Girls Trip’ star then joked that her husband – with whom she has 20-year-old son Jaden and 18-year-old daughter Willow – asked her to skydive because he had “different” plans for if things went badly.
She added: “Let me tell you. Because he’s watching me and I go, ‘Why would a husband ask his wife to jump out of a plane for his 50th? Unless he’s got some different plans for the next half.'”
But Jada says she wasn’t nervous when it came to the jump, because she knew she had to “keep her composure” and trust her “faith”.
Speaking during an appearance on ‘The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon’, she said: “You know, I wasn’t. I was kind of anxious before and I knew I was gonna freak out once I got on the plane, because I don’t like heights and I don’t like planes. I don’t like to fly. And I was like, ‘Jada, this is gonna be a test for you just as far as how you can keep your composure in regards to your faith.'”
Jada wasn’t the only family member jumping out of flying vehicles for Will’s big day, as the ‘Suicide Squad’ star himself bungee jumped from a helicopter over the Grand Canyon.

Fire breaks out at Ed Sheeran’s country property

OHMYGOSSIP — Firefighters have tackled a blaze at Ed Sheeran’s country estate.
The fire crews were called to the 27-year-old musician’s sprawling £1.5 million country estate in Suffolk on Friday (25.01.19) morning, after reports of a “small building fire” on the property.
A Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service representative said in a statement: “Three engines were sent to the incident, from Framlingham, Saxmundham and Halesworth. Crews extinguished the fire quickly and then ventilated the area of heavy smoke.”
The cause of the fire and the state of any damage to the property is unclear as of the time of writing, but an East of England Ambulance Service spokesman confirmed that there were no jobs matching the description of the fire in the county on Friday.
Ed – who is engaged to Cherry Seaborn – was born in Suffolk and has been buying up property around his mansion in order to expand his sprawling estate.
In January last year, the ‘Shape of You’ hitmaker bought four homes next to each other, and just months later, he was reported to be building a chapel on his estate in order to tie the knot with Cherry.
A source said of the Saxon-style flint building: “Even though Ed is one of the world’s biggest stars he does like to do things privately, like his engagement.
“Having his wedding on his own land would mean they could celebrate their big day with just their nearest and dearest and then head back to the main house of a big party after.”
It’s said the development is essential for Ed to give him a place to “retreat for contemplation and prayer”, and for his famous house guests to “regenerate their spiritual strength”.

Rita Ora: I’ve had designers that won’t work with me

OHMYGOSSIP — Rita Ora has faced “complications” with getting certain designers to dress her.
Earlier this week, Bebe Rexha slammed designers for not wanting to work with her on a custom made gown for the upcoming Grammy Awards because she’s deemed “too big” at a size eight, and now Rita has said she too has faced difficulties in getting designers to make red carpet gowns for her.
The 28-year-old singer said that whilst she’s never considered it a “personal attack” when designers turn her down, she doesn’t always find it easy to find someone who will style her.
Speaking to People magazine, Rita said: “There were complications, yes, because you have to adapt to your body. I feel like I’ve never looked at it as a personal attack towards me because this is who I am and this is always who I am going to be and I’ve never changed for anybody. I think consistency is key. I don’t take clothes not fitting me personally, I just find something that fits and I wear the s**t out of it. I feel like that’s what it takes to be a trailblazer and trendsetter.”
Her comments come after Bebe, 29, launched a social media tirade against designers to claimed she wasn’t slim enough to fit into their designs.
In a video posted on her account, she fumed: “So I finally get nominated at the Grammys and it’s like the coolest thing ever.
“And a lot of times artists will go and talk to designers and they’ll make them custom dresses to walk the red carpet … So I had my team hit out a lot of designers and a lot of them do not want to dress me because I’m too big.”
The ‘Meant to Be’ singer is angry that the designers who have snubbed her are giving out the wrong message that anyone who is size eight and above isn’t “beautiful”.
She added: “If a size 6-8, is too big, then I don’t know what to tell you. Then I don’t want to wear your f***ing dresses. ‘Cause that’s crazy … You’re saying that all the women in the world that are size 8 and up are not beautiful, and they cannot wear your dresses.”

Kylie Jenner wants diamonds for Valentine’s Day

OHMYGOSSIP — Kylie Jenner wants diamonds for Valentine’s Day (14.02.19).
The 21-year-old reality star has dropped some serious hints to her boyfriend Travis Scott – with whom she has 11-month-old daughter Stormi – that she wants sparkly jewels as a gift when the romantic holiday rolls around next month, as she said diamonds are much better than pearls.
In a video posted to her YouTube channel on Friday (25.01.19) in which she answered Valentine’s Day themed quick fire questions, Kylie was asked whether she’d prefer to receive a teddy bear or jewellery, to which she said: “I mean, jewellery, obviously, right?”
And then when asked if that jewellery would be made of diamonds or pearls, she said “diamonds” were her preferred precious stone.
When it comes to the perfect Valentine’s Day date night, the ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star would prefer to go out for dinner than watch a movie, although she “really loves both”.
Asked to pick one, she said: “I don’t know, ’cause I really love both, but maybe since it’s Valentine’s Day, let’s go out for a nice dinner or something.”
During the one-minute clip, Kylie also reveals she prefers red roses over white roses, milk chocolate over dark chocolate, red wine over rosé, and pink over red.
Kylie even has a preference over which colour lingerie to wear on Valentine’s Day.
Asked to pick between red or black lingerie, she said: “I’m going to say red for Valentine’s Day, black for any other day.”
Kylie’s Valentine’s Day choices come after it was recently reported she and Travis could be set to get engaged soon, as they’re “really happy” in their relationship.
An insider said: “Travis and Kylie are looking to get married soon, [but Kylie is] taking marriage at a more cautious pace after seeing her sisters’ past relationships fail.
“Things are in a great place with Travis. They’re always together and just really happy.”
