Montana Brown has ‘huge crush’ on Jason Derulo

OHMYGOSSIP — Montana Brown tried to sneak on stage to “catch the eye” of Jason Derulo at V Festival.
The ‘Love Island’ star has a “huge crush” on the ‘Talk Dirty’ hitmaker and was so desperate to get up close and personal with him that she attempted to get backstage and catch his eye while he was performing at the music extravaganza in Essex over the weekend.
A source told The Sun Online: “Montana has a huge crush on Jason and when she found out he was performing, she planned to do everything she could to meet him.
“She told all her mates she was going to try and catch his eye and even tried to sneak up onto the stage. Unfortunately she didn’t get close to him but really, Jason is missing out. Montana is gorgeous! She’s not given up on meeting him though so watch this space.”
Montana’s attempt to win over the 27-year-old hunk comes just three weeks after she announced she’s called time on her romance with Alex Beattie, who she met in the villa.
She said at the time: “Alex and I have decided to split. Making our relationship work on the outside has been hard. He hasn’t been the same since coming out of the villa. Despite this we are still close and I will always support him.”
Whilst Alex added in his own post: “Me and Montana met yesterday and have decided that it’s best to call it a day with relationship with each other. It’s been very hard on the outside to make us work how we desired. I still have strong feelings towards her and will be remaining close friends and supporting her throughout everything.”
A source had previously claimed that Montana and Alex had gone their separate ways as she is very “ambitious” and is keen to focus on becoming a television presenter.
They said: “Montana is keen to follow her dreams as a TV presenter and has been attending meetings this week to get the wheels in motion.
“She doesn’t like partying and isn’t a big drinker so personal appearances in nightclubs aren’t really her thing. Instead she is ambitious and very much a career woman – her relationship with Alex is going to take a back seat.”

Marcel Somerville drops solo singles about Gabby Allen

OHMYGOSSIP — Marcel Somerville’s new single ‘Someone’ was written for his ‘Love Island’ girlfriend Gabby Allen.
The Blazin’ Squad member met the blonde beauty on the latest series of the ITV2 show and the pair quickly became fan favourites and, despite the success of the band, he’s decided to carve out a solo career and has penned a song for his girlfriend of two months.
Speaking to the Sun newspaper, the singer said: “I am releasing new solo material. My new song ‘Someone’ is, of course, about Gabby, but I wrote it before I went into the house.
“It was also a premonition that I would meet someone just like her in the villa. I’ve written another song called You And I about Gabby, which I can’t wait for people to hear.
“See, I’m romantic, the gestures never stop.”
The hunk also revealed he regrets sleeping with more than 300 women – which he revealed on the dating show – but says he has found the right girl with Gabby.
He said: “I said I’d had sex with around 300, but it was more like between 200-300 and it keeps getting brought up now.
“Maybe I shouldn’t have had so much sex. But then it made me who I am and it made me skilled. I am a great lover now. What can I say?
“You do get girls in clubs throwing themselves at you and saying they love you, but because I was in the Blazin’ Squad it’s not new to me.
“I know I have the best girl already so I wouldn’t veer want to look elsewhere. She knows that.”
Despite not winning the prize money, the two have stayed together and Marcel said “nothing will break” them.
He said: “I went on the show to find love and meet someone and I did.
“So even though we didn’t win the show, we won in love, so couldn’t be happier. Gabs and I are solid. Nothing will break us.”

Sir Bruce Forsyth to get tribute on Strictly Come Dancing

OHMYGOSSIP — ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ bosses are planning a tribute for Sir Bruce Forsyth.
The show’s top executives are keen to give the legendary presenter – who sadly passed away at the age of 89 on Friday (18.08.17) the send off he deserves and are currently coming up with a way to honour him during the opening episode next month.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: “Sir Bruce’s career spanned 75 years, but just when he looked like he was going into semi-retirement, ‘Strictly…’ came along in 2004 and gave him that second wind and introduced him to a new generation.
“We couldn’t let the opening episode of the new ‘Strictly….’ pass without paying a big tribute to the great man. He will be forever linked to the show.”
The tribute is expected to include “a Fred Astaire tap dancing spectacular and a montage of his best bits co-hosting the show with Tess Daly from 2004 until 2013.”
The insider said: “Sir Bruce was greatly missed when he stepped down as the main co-host and only popped back to front the Children In Need and Christmas specials.
“There are lots of things in the mix and we will be liaising with Sir Bruce’s family as we want this to be our way of saying thank you to our favourite.”
Bruce’s passing came just two weeks after his close friend Jimmy Tarbuck admitted he is in a “very serious” state after two life-threatening aneurysms in 2015.
Jimmy, 77, said: “He’s okay but he’s a bit frail. He’s had an aneurysm. It’s very serious.”
He is survived by his wife Lady Wilnelia Forsyth and his six children – daughters Debbie, Julie and Laura from his first marriage with Penny Calvert, Charlotte and Louisa with his second spouse Anthea Redfern and a son with Wilnelia – as well as nine grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

Suranne Jones to strip off in Doctor Foster

OHMYGOSSIP — Suranne Jones has teased that she will strip off in the new series of ‘Doctor Foster’.
The next instalment of the gripping drama is expected to hit screens sometime next month and fans will certainly be in for a treat as the 38-year-old actress – who plays the wronged GP – has admitted her alter ego will be seen without her kit on.
Suranne – who gave birth to her first child last year – said: “I was exercising a lot on set and taking part in planking for charity. Spoiler alert: Gemma takes her clothes off at some point and I’d just had a baby, so a bit of planking helped.”
The first series, which aired in 2015 and was meant to be a one-off until fans begged for a follow-up, saw Doctor Foster – also known as Gemma – left heartbroken when she found out her husband Simon Foster (Bertie Carvel), had been having an affair with a younger woman and then decided to leave her to start a family with his secret.
But Suranne has hinted that the drama between Simon and Gemma isn’t over and she can’t help but meddle in his life when he returns to their hometown of Parminster.
And things are even set to hot up between them in one scene.
She teased: “Your head says one thing but your body betrays that. You might hate someone but you’ve forgotten to tell your Mister about that.”
And the brunette beauty has even implied that their could be a reunion on the cards.
She added: “You’ve got two characters and the hurt has set in. It makes more sense when you get to episode five because you’re looking at two damaged people.”

Ross Kemp to star in Game of Thrones

OHMYGOSSIP — Ross Kemp wants to land a role in ‘Game of Thrones’.
The 53-year-old actor – who has made a name for himself portraying bad boy Grant Mitchell in ‘EastEnders’ on and off since 1990 – has admitted he would love to bag himself a part in the hit HBO show and would even be willing to get naked on screen.
Speaking to the Daily Star newspaper, the star said: “I am fine in that department.”
But it looks like the investigative journalist is keeping his options open as he would also jump at the chance to take part in ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ after he was forced to turn it down in 2008 because he’d just returned from being shot at while filming his documentary ‘Ross Kemp in Afghanistan’ and didn’t feel ready to do another job.
He said previously: “I love ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
“I have been asked before. I was going to do it. Then I got home from Camp Bastion after being shot at and thought: ‘No, don’t be so silly.’ ”
And the actor should have some time to do the show as his ‘Extreme World’ – a series that has been opening people’s eyes to homelessness, drug addiction, violence and poverty for the past six years, was recently axed by Sky1.
A spokesperson for the channel said previously: “Our focus for Sky1 this year is offering customers even more great drama, comedy and factual entertainment. Going forward we are shifting away from commissioning factual shows on the channel, and ‘Ross Kemp’s Extreme World’ will be coming to an end after its upcoming series.”
Although Ross was hoping to bag himself another series next year, he’s not completely disheartened as bosses have promised him something exciting in the future.
Meanwhile, the latest series of ‘Game of Thrones’ – based on the novels by George R R Martin – has seen many celebrities have cameos including Ed Sheeran and ‘Harry Potter’ star Jim Broadbent.

Chris Hughes and Olivia Attwood ‘involved in bust-up in nightclub’

OHMYGOSSIP — Chris Hughes and Olivia Attwood were reportedly involved in an epic bust-up at a Birmingham nightclub over the weekend.
The ‘Love Island’ duo shocked clubbers at PRYZM in the early hours of Saturday morning (19.08.17) because of a furious row with one of their entourage, which only ended when Olivia was led out of the venue by security.
A source told The Sun newspaper: “Olivia was absolutely furious about something and stormed off to the toilets.
“Chris ran to follow her to try and calm her down but nothing was working.
“There was a bit of a tussle on the balcony between Olivia and another of their group before door staff stepped in to hold her back and she then was told to leave.”
But a spokesperson for Olivia has denied the insider’s account, saying: “Olivia left of her own accord.”
The row came shortly after it was reported that Chris and Olivia have been approached for their own TV show.
The’s celebrity duo’s romance has already gone through a huge amount of turbulence and bosses are hoping they’ll soon agree to their own spin-off programme.
A source recently said: “The nation was completely addicted to following Chris and Liv’s on-off relationship in the villa and they were by far one of the most talked-about couples.
“Their rows were gripping and they were also completely hilarious – especially with Cash Hughes [the baby doll they were told to look after for 24 hours] thrown in the mix.
“It’s no surprise then that they’ve been quickly tapped up to do a follow-up show chronicling how they’re doing on the outside and as well as all the other things they’ve signed up for.”

Charlotte Hawkins set for Strictly Come Dancing

OHMYGOSSIP — Charlotte Hawkins has signed up for ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
The ‘Good Morning Britain’ presenter confirmed she is the next star set to take to the dancefloor for a chance to win the Glitterball Trophy by announcing her own breaking news live on the programme earlier today (21.08.17).
She said: “The breaking news is we can announce the 11th contestant to join ‘Strictly’ is … me!”
Charlotte’s ‘GMB’ co-presenter and former ‘Strictly’ contestant Richard Arnold then appeared on set to whisk her off for an interview, and the blonde beauty admitted she hasn’t told anyone she is competing.
She said: “Nobody knows, I’ve kept it a secret from literally everybody. I’m really sorry to my friends and my family. Surprise!”
Charlotte’s co-host Kate Garraway – who finished eighth out of 14 contestants on the show – urged her to do better than she did on the programme.
She said: “What we need to know Charlotte is, ‘Are you going to do well?’ I was a disgrace, Richard was better. Susanna was amazing. She wasn’t working with us at the time though. Can you fly the flag for ‘Good Morning Britain’?”
Charlotte admitted she had some dancing experience during her younger years.
She said: “I did dancing as a child. I did a bit of ballet. I do a bit of dancing round the kitchen with my two year old, but I don’t know if that counts?
“I’ll be getting some tips from you two.”
Kate replied: “Don’t do anything that I did.”
Richard said: “Brave the TV critics because it’s all in good spirts.”
Turning to Kate, he said: “They did say you were like a hoover being dragged around the floor didn’t they?”
She replied: “Bruce [Forsyth] said I looked like I was mopping the floor.”
They then presented Charlotte with a ‘Strictly’ “survival kit”, which included plasters, fluffy slippers and some pasta.
She said: “Thank you for all the support. This is setting me on the way now. The excitement is beginning.”
The final five ‘Strictly’ contestants for this year’s show will all be announced today.
A tweet on the show’s official Twitter account read: “Wondering when our next celebrity reveal is? Tomorrow is #Strictly’s Mega Monday. Our final five announced here, @GMB and @BBCTheOneShow (sic)”

Sarah Harding upset by nominations

OHMYGOSSIP — Sarah Harding broke down in tears when she realised all her ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ housemates apart from Chad Johnson had nominated her for eviction.
The Girls Aloud singer had initially laughed when she was revealed to have received the most nods in the latest round of nominations, but as the truth dawned on her later, she broke down in her on/off house boyfriend’s arms.
She said to Chad: There’s nine of us left right, so you and me are seven, eight, nine.. Seven people nominated me. Everyone but you…
“It doesn’t make sense, I just feel so f***ing deceived, everyone assumes I have a fanbase looking out for me and they have their own agenda. This is not just one or two, this is everyone but you – I’m assuming you didn’t…”
Chad reassured her: “No, I would never. It’s just because we’ve been open.”
She replied: “We’ve been open, we’re not playing games, I didn’t think the olders were playing a game, It really, really bums me out to think that even Derek [Acorah] could go there.”
Every housemate who received any nominations will face the next public vote, meaning only Derek, Shaun Williamson and Amelia Lily are the only ones guaranteed to be safe.
Helen Lederer, Sandi Bogle and Sam Thompson all picked up one vote, Jemma Lucy got three and Chad received five, prompting him to exclaim, “Jesus! Come on man”, as the results were announced.
The group had been asked to submit their choices for this week’s public vote during the live show on Saturday (19.08.17).
Two of the stars will be evicted on Tuesday (22.08.17).

Daniel Craig to cut down on dangerous stunts

OHMYGOSSIP — Daniel Craig has agreed to cut back on dangerous stunts for the new James Bond movie.
The 49-year-old actor recently revealed he will reprise his role as the suave spy in the forthcoming 25th film in the series but will be opting out of some of the more thrilling stunts after his wife Rachel Weisz begged him to be careful.
A source told the Mirror: “It’s a big bone of contention. Rachel doesn’t want him in agony again. None of his aches and pains have gone away completely.
“There’s a legacy to all these injuries and she lives with them. They’ve come to an agreement about how hard he will push himself and he is pulling back from the edge this time. It’s a prerequisite.”
Daniel has previously admitted that his work on the franchise has left him needing extensive surgery.
He said: “I knackered my knee and had surgery, I’ve had my right shoulder reconstructed, my other knee operated on and my thumb got hurt.”
And Rachel, 47, has insisted her husband is nothing like his alter-ego.
She said: “I am not married to James Bond. He doesn’t get married. I’ve watched him bed girls and not marry them. Daniel is a very good actor and very talented. We are really into normal life. I looked at the Greek peppers and thought that looks like a nice recipe Daniel would like that.”

Jaime King signs up for indie drama

OHMYGOSSIP — Jaime King will star in ‘Ice Cream in the Cupboard’.
The 38-year-old actress has joined the cast of the indie drama, which tells the heartbreaking story of how a couple cope when the wife is diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s.
Claudia Ferri and Dana Ashbrook will portray the couple, while Jaime has signed on to play the neurologist who treats the woman.
Drew Pollins is directing the movie, based on the book by Pat Moffat.
Along with working in front of the camera, Jaime has also previously turned to writing and directing, with her directorial debut ‘Latch Key’, which was released in 2011.
Speaking previously about it, she said: “I’ve always wanted to write and direct. I’ve been writing since I was seven. It’s a film called ‘Latch Key’, about a 14-year-old girl who loses her mother suddenly and because she can’t cope with the stress of it, she wakes up when day and decides to pretend like it never happened, so it’s her first day back to school after the tragedy. And, I used actors and crew who were all from Omaha. It was really an amazing experience.”
And she also worked in TV for four years with ‘Hart of Dixie’, after Rose Byrne encouraged her to try the small screen.
She said: “Rose Byrne said to me, ‘Jaime, you have to do a television series!’ She said, ‘There’s nothing like it. The roles for women are so spectacular and amazing, and you get to act, every single day.’ There’s something to be said about that, and I really wanted the opportunity to not only be consistently working, every single day, but also, on my hiatus, have the time to really focus on my work as a director.”

Ryan Reynolds wants to see Deadpool in the MCU

OHMYGOSSIP — Ryan Reynolds wants to see Deadpool in the Marvel Cinematic Universe – but only if it was R-rated.
The 40-year-old actor starred as the Merc with a Mouth in the hit movie and is currently working on a sequel, but due to the use of violence and graphic language, the character is unlikely to appear in the current MCU despite Reynolds saying it would be a “great idea”.
Speaking to Total Film Magazine, Reynolds said: “That sounds like a great idea but a very expensive idea.
“Can you imagine that s**t-talking contest with Iron Man? Oh, that would be great. But it would have to be rated R to completely unharness everybody.
“Unbridle the merriment and watch them go…”
The next ‘Deadpool’ movie stars Josh Brolin as the villain Cable – the son of X-Men members Cyclops and Madelyne Prior – and Reynolds said Brolin is “everything you want in a character”.
He said: “Josh is everything you want in a character that’s as iconic and imposing as Cable.
“He’s going to bring the right levels of intimidation and charisma.”
It’s slated to be released next year and Reynolds said the script has been finished for a while.
He explained: “I don’t think a day’s gone by where I haven’t worked on it in some manner or other since we wrapped on the first one.
“Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick and I have been having so much fun. The script’s been done now for quite a while; we’re in the place where we’re just writing alternative jokes.
“We’re fortunate that we can tell the story and not worry about any form of censorship.
“We get to scream in the Deadpool language with a full-throated ease.”
Stefan Kapacic will reprise his role as Colossus and Brianna Hildebrand returns as teenage psychic Negasonic Teenage Warhead.
Morena Baccarin will also return as Deadpool’s love interest Vanessa Carlysle, and Leslie Uggams will reprise her role as Blind Al.

Will Poulter praises Kathryn Bigelow’s calm nature

OHMYGOSSIP — Will Poulter relied on Kathryn Bigelow to help with his evil character in ‘Detroit’.
The 24-year-old actor stars as Philip Krauss, a police officer involved in the Algiers Motel incident of 1967, in which three African American men were killed during the 12th Street Riot, and said he needed the filmmaker to help maintain a “calm, level-headed” feeling.
Speaking at the press conference for the film at London hotel Claridge’s on Wednesday (16.08.17), Poulter said: “I relied heavily on Kathryn.
“Someone who in the presence of chaotic and overwhelming action, maintains a calm, level-headed, aspiring closure.
“I think the fact that I was generally friends with the cast helped as well. We had those bonds and respect and trust with each other.
“A sense of purpose came with the film. The psychology of that character was very uncomfortable. Any time I was feeling emotional, I would think of those that who have been the recipient of that abuse.
“My feelings don’t even measure up to what the real people went through. I kept that in mind when shooting the film.”
Oscar-winning filmmaker Bigelow, who has helmed very successful gritty movies including ‘The Hurt Locker’, recently revealed she based her script on court reports and testimonies of people who witnessed the atrocity.

Public memorial planned for Sir Bruce Forsyth

OHMYGOSSIP — Sir Bruce Forsyth will be remembered with a public memorial service at Westminster Abbey.
The 89-year-old TV legend passed away on Friday (18.08.17) with his wife Wilnelia and his six children by his side and plans are being put together to honour him with a public memorial, which the BBC would support.
A source told The Sun on Sunday: “Bruce’s family are very much coming to terms with their loss, which is utterly devastating.
“It is too early to say for sure what will happen next. But the idea of the great and the good celebrating their friend’s life alongside the ordinary fans who watched him for years is very much liked.
“Further conversations about it will be had in the coming weeks, when the family are ready. The decision, either way, will be theirs to make.”
The former ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ host is survived by his wife Lady Wilnelia Forsyth and his six children – daughters Debbie, Julie and Laura from his first marriage with Penny Calvert, Charlotte and Louisa with his second spouse Anthea Redfern and a son with Wilnelia – as well as nine grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
The television icon had been unwell for some time and was hospitalised earlier this year with a severe chest infection but his manager Ian Wilson said Bruce was still cracking jokes even in his ill health.
In a statement, Ian said: “It is with great sadness that the Forsyth family announce that Sir Bruce passed away this afternoon, peacefully at his home surrounded by his wife Wilnelia and all his children.
“A couple of weeks ago, a friend visited him and asked him what he had been doing these last 18 months.
“With a twinkle in his eye, he responded ‘I’ve been very, very busy … being ill!'”

Chris Clark storms out of V Festival after row with girlfriend

OHMYGOSSIP — Chris Clark stormed out of V Festival on Saturday (19.08.17) after a fight with his girlfriend.
The ‘TOWIE’ star and his girlfriend Amber Dowding were reportedly spotted arguing in the VIP area at the festival after becoming embroiled in a row between his brother Jon and Jon’s girlfriend Fran Parman.
A source told The Sun Online: “Chris started shouting at Amber after she dragged Jon off of Fran.
“She seemed upset but gave as good as she got. She was having a go at him in front of everyone in the VIP area which was pretty awkward.
“Chris looked really grumpy and stormed off to find Jon and then Amber looked really teary and went off to the mates to the loos.
“Chris and Jon then left together and walked out of the VIP area and headed towards to festival’s exit. Chris stopped for some selfies but he didn’t look very happy.
“He’s going to be in trouble with Amber tomorrow morning.”
The bust-up comes not long after Chris admitted he used his girlfriend’s phone to dump Little Mix star Jesy Nelson by text earlier this year.
He said: “I used Amber’s to do it. I was never going to escape it. I had to just deal with it.
“She was on the other side of the world. I am happier now than I ever have been.”
Jesy, 26, was on tour in America with Little Mix for most of their relationship and although Chris flew out to spend some time with her, he previously admitted that the long distance was tough.
Meanwhile, Amber – who rekindled her romance with Chris just days after he split with Jesy – insisted that Chris did the right thing.
She said: “It wasn’t my relationship but all I can say on Chris’s behalf is that it wasn’t done in a negative way.
“He wasn’t 100 per cent in the relationship and he had to end it when he ended it and that was that. I don’t want him to ever receive a backlash from it.
“In life you have to think about yourself and be selfish sometimes.”

Len Goodman surprised with Shirley Ballas replacement

OHMYGOSSIP — Len Goodman was surprised to be replaced by Shirley Ballas on ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.
The 73-year-old ballroom expert stepped down as head judge on the show at the end of last year and admitted he was expecting Anton du Beke or one of the show’s other professional dancers to take over his job.
He told Closer Magazine: “My only wish was that they would get someone from the world of ballroom, for the [knowledge of] technique.
“If I’d had a bet, I would’ve thought Anton would probably get it – he’s been on the show since day one – or Brendan Cole or Karen Hardy.
“But I’m pretty sure Anton will end up being on the show for a long time, he’s a lovely bloke with a great personality.”
But Len thinks Shirley will do her “absolute best” on the panel and advised her not to put on an act.
He said: “I’ve known Shirley since she was a kid and I know she will do the absolute best she can, and that’s all I ever did.
“My advice? Just be yourself.”
Now he’s no longer on ‘Strictly’, Len has a bit more free time so can next be seen hosting quiz show ‘Partners in Rhyme’ and though he initially worried he’d be a “hopeless” presenter, he’s had a great time.
He said: “I’d never done a quiz and I was worried I’d be bloody hopeless, but I was up for the challenge and I thought, ‘If Bradley Walsh can do it…’
“When you get to a certain age, you want to be doing things that give you enjoyment and I’m so glad I did this – it was such a laugh.”

Paul O’Grady’s secret wedding

OHMYGOSSIP — Paul O’Grady has secretly tied the knot.
The ‘Blind Date’ presenter and his partner Andre Portasio – who have been together for 11 years – got married at The Goring Hotel in London on August 5 in front of 50 of their closest friends and family members.
A source told The Sun on Sunday: “Paul is as happy as he’s ever been to be married to Andre.
“They kept the wedding to just their closest family and friends and had a big lunch afterwards to celebrate.”
Paul, 62 and Andre, 37 – a former dancer with the English National Ballet – celebrated their wedding with celebrity pals including actors Ian McKellen and Michael Cashman and comedian Julian Clary.
Guests were treated to champagne and canapes before enjoying a meal which included cured sea bream and glazed ox cheek.
Speaking previously about their relationship, Paul – who started dating Andre a year after his partner and business manager Brendan Murphy died suddenly in 2005 – said: “Our relationship just crept up on us. It took us by surprise when we were least expecting it.”
Paul and Andre’s marriage certificate states that the star’s previous union was “dissolved”, referring to his marriage of convenience with Portuguese model Teresa Fernandez.
The pair were legally married from 1977 to 2005.
Speaking about then marriage, Paul said: “Theresa, I call her the lesbian Portuguese barmaid, was lovely. She looked like David Cassidy.
“We worked in a club in Westbourne Grove, London, when I was 22. She was from a very strict Catholic family and was always being hassled by them: ‘Why aren’t you getting married?’ So I said: ‘Come on then, we’ll get married’, and we did.
“We were married for 27 years. I had no idea we were still married until my manager Brendan said, ‘If anything happened to you, everything would go to your wife. It’s like a real life ‘Corrie’ story line.”
