Adele Not Changing For 'Hollywood Look'

Adele says she won't change to get the 'Hollywood look' because she likes food too much.

In an interview with heat magazine the Chasing Pavements singer said, "I'm really mouthy about not having the Hollywood look. Everyone asks me "Why don't you feel pressured to get the Hollywood look?" and I'm like, "Because I don't." I'm not going to stop eating food that I like. I mean, I quite like my eyes and my lips. I don't like my double chin or my gut, but I don't not like them enough to do something about it."

The 20-year-old has just moved out of her mum's house in West Norwood and bought her own one-bedroom flat in Notting Hill.

Despite having previously been photographed falling out of showbiz parties, Adele says she's given up her boozing lifestyle. "I've stopped drinking," she said. "It was clouding my judgement a little bit. I'm more interested in mopping my floor at the moment because I've got my own flat now."

She laughed, "At least when I'm older I can say I lived in Notting Hill once."

Newly single, Adele, who admits to having had a four-month flame until September, says she loves the freedom of her new lifestyle. "I'm always confused when there's a boy around," she said. "You just give up all your feelings for them and run around like a d**khead. I'm a fool for love."

Asked about her ideal man, the singer says she needs someone to make her laugh and adds, "Of course I fancy Justin Timberlake".

Dancing Onto Dreamflight

Stars of the BBC show ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ Mark Foster and his partner Hayley Holt joined a host of celebrities at Heathrow yesterday on Sunday 19th October to send nearly 200 seriously ill and disabled children on a British Airways’ Dreamflight to Florida.

Celebrating its 22nd year, Dreamflight is a UK charity set up by British Airways cabin crew – that takes seriously ill and disabled children on a holiday of a lifetime to the theme parks of Central Florida.

The roll call of stars included Paralympic athletes Dzaier Neil and Matt Skelhon, as well as TV personalities Sir Cliff Richard, Chico, Patsy Palmer and Emma Barton along with marching bands and children’s entertainers.

British Airways’ chief executive Willie Walsh, who also attended, said, “Dreamflight is always a highlight in the BA calendar – we’re delighted to be able to support this great charity and make dreams come true for these deserving children.”

British Airways has been involved in Dreamflight from its launch and more than 4,000 children have benefited. The cabin crew who operate the flights volunteer their time.
Foster, who is better known as one of Britain’s all time great swimmers said, “It is a pleasure to come down and show our support to Dreamflight. An aircraft hangar is the most unusual place that Hayley and I have ever danced.”

During their ten-day trip the children will visit Disneyland, Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure and MGM studios. The trip will culminate with a final stop to Discovery Cove, for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to swim with dolphins.

Jennifer Ellison Getting Married

Jennifer Ellison, who split from fiancé Tony Richardson amid accusations of abuse, says she’s turned her life around, thanks to new boyfriend, Robbie Tickle, 29.

Jennifer, 25, and Robbie have been dating for seven months and have already discussed marriage.

Speaking to Closer magazine, the actress said: “Me and Rob haven’t been together long, but when you fall madly in love with someone, you don’t need to wait five years to take it to the next level. We’ll get married next year – but it won’t be a big celeb wedding, I only want an intimate affair with family and friends.”

Jennifer met Robbie, a semi-pro boxer, on a night out with friends and says she has no fears about this relationship. “Rob would never do anything terrible to me – I’ve got no doubts about that,” she says. “He has changed me as a person. I was so tense before, as Tony left me feeling insecure. But I’m so happy now.”


Jen can’t wait to start a family, she told Closer: “I’d love children. I want three, but I’m busy with work so it’s on hold. Robbie already has seven-year-old twins from a previous relationship. I get on really well with them so that’s a good sign.”

Bernie Mac Dies, Aged 50


Bernie Mac has died in hospital at the age of 50, it has been confirmed.

The US actor and comedian had been admitted to hospital in Chicago, Illinois, last week to receive treatment for pneumonia.

In a statement, his publicist Danica Smith said: "Bernie Mac passed away this morning from complications due to pneumonia in a Chicago area hospital."

She added that no other details were available and requested privacy for his family.

Mac started his stand-up comedy career at an early age, but is also well known for his successful acting career. He appeared in high-profile movies such as Ocean's Eleven, Charlie's Angels sequel Full Throttle and Transformers, as well as his own Fox sitcom The Bernie Mac Show, for which he received two Emmy nominations.

He once revealed that he suffered from the lung disease sarcoidosis, but it was believed to have gone into remission in 2005. After he checked into hospital last week, his spokeswoman insisted that the pneumonia diagnosis was not related to the disease.

Vorderman 'Forced Out' Of Countdown


Countdown star Carol Vorderman has claimed that she was "forced out" by the show's bosses.

Vorderman, who has co-hosted the Channel 4 game show since its premiere in 1982, revealed that she was told to take a 90% pay cut or stand down from the programme.

"I was in shock and absolutely distraught at their ultimatum," Carol told the News of the World. "After putting my heart and soul into the show for 26 years I was given just 48 hours to decide - take it or leave.

"To be honest, I loved Countdown so much I was thinking of taking the cut. In fact, in the right circumstances I'd have done it for free - but it was obvious they wanted me out."

Carol announced that she had quit the show just days after Des O'Connor has also confirmed that he is leaving the show.

Insiders at ITV, which produces the programme for Channel 4, insisted that the ultimatum was necessary as Countdown's budget has been cut.

One source said, "Carol wasn't forced out. Yes, she was asked to take a substantial pay cut but would still have been paid £2,000 a day for sticking up some numbers. Not bad work if you can get it. We make the show for Channel 4 and they cut the budget."

Britton Admits To Gastric Band

TV host Fern Britton has admitted that she had a gastric band fitted two years ago.

The 50-year-old, who presents ITV1's This Morning said in a statement, "As I know, many people are interested in my weight loss over the past two years. As interest is so high I'm making public, as a personal choice, that I had a gastric band operation two years ago. I did this purely for myself and I would not wish to influence others to do the same. But for me it has worked and I am very pleased with the results."

A spokesman for ITV has said that the network will be standing by Fern and rejected claims that she had misled This Morning viewers.

"We weren't aware of this matter - over the last two years Fern has cycled down the Nile, she exercises most days and has a very healthy lifestyle and healthy diet," he said. He added, "This is not a con."

Gastric banding is a surgical procedure that involves fitting a band around the upper part of the stomach. Aparently this can lead to you having to eat smaller meals.

Trisha Goddard Slashes Her Hair

Losing your hair due to cancer treatment can be one of its most emotionally devastating side-effects. But chat show host Trisha Goddard has bravely cut off her trademark glossy bob in exchange for a blonde crop because she doesn't want to 'look like a victim'.

The mother of two was diagnosed with breast cancer in March following a routine mammogram.

She told Hello! magazine: "When I learned that I was going to need chemotherapy following my surgery for breast cancer, I had to consider the prospect of losing my hair – something which really scared me."

"As a woman, my hair really helps me feel feminine. I am going to wear a cold cap during my treatment – something which stretches over your head and freezes the hair follicles, hopefully protecting them."

"But that works better with short hair, so I knew that my usual hair extensions would have to be taken out and a shorter style would help. Also, if my hair does end up falling out, I don’t want to look like a victim."

"So I decided to have a short crop for both practical and emotional reasons. Then, as I was talking to my husband Peter [Gianfrancesco] about it, he said ‘Why don’t you go the whole hog and have it bleached.’ As soon as he suggested it, I thought ‘Yes!’ It is like wearing my hair with pride and actually taking control."

"The thought of losing my hair through the chemotherapy is so scary – but this is my own way of sticking two fingers up at the situation I find myself in."

The TV presenter said the process of cutting her hair was traumatic.

She said: 'It was actually quite shocking and emotionally draining. This wasn’t like having a fun new style – it was pushed upon me by events which are out of my control.

I deliberately didn’t have a mirror in the room, so I didn’t have to sit and watch it all come off. I had to have several glasses of champagne to help me through it .'

She added: 'I only looked when my hair stylist had finished bleaching it blonde – and I was shocked. It was like staring at someone else’s face, one that I didn’t recognise.

'If I do look in the mirror, it is like an intruder staring back – a stranger that I don’t recognise.

Did Joey Ruin Matteo's Career?

Drea De Matteo has reportedly claimed that her role in US sitcom Joey destroyed her career.

The former Sopranos actress has struggled to find work since playing Matt Le Blanc's sister in the Friends spinoff, which was cancelled in 2006 after two series. Matteo played the role of Gina on the show.

A source told Page Six, "[Drea] was saying Joey completely ruined her career. She called it horrible and said she hasn't been able to really work since then."

"She said she's really been out of the business and is trying to get back in."

The 36-year-old won an Emmy for her role as Adriana La Cerva on The Sopranos in 2004.
