Oh dear, how very unfortunate. It seems that George Osborne has been given a bit of a rough ride by disappointed One Direction fans when switching on the Christmas lights in his Cheshire constituency.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer was greeted with boos by teenagers who had flocked to the switching-on ceremony in Knutsford after a rumour circulated that Harry Styles was going to be flicking the switch.
The Sun even reports that some girls were in tears when confronted by the Tory MP instead of their 17-year-old idol.

One local tweeted: "Loads of teen girls turned up. Imagine their disappointment when Osborne walked out!!!

"The screaming soon stopped when George appeared. Funny. He got booed by his own constituents!!!"

Harry, whose home town is Holmes Chapel just a few miles from Knutsford, is thought to have been busy rehearsing with his bandmates in London.

It has not been confirmed whether Caroline Flack turned up at the switching-on ceremony.

What do you think? Would you have been happy with George turning on your local lights? Comment below...

PA

There is a long and honourable tradition for D-list celebs to put out fitness DVDs around this time of year, and it looks like A-list rapper 50 Cent is after a slice of that pie.

The gangsta rapper, whose debut album Get Rich or Die Tryin' went six times platinum, is now planning on launching a fitness and cooking book to help his fans get in shape.
Yes Fiddy, whose real name is Curtis Jackson III, will be taking on the likes of Coleen Nolan and Hannah Waterman in the celebrity fitness marketplace with his tome Formula 50: A 6-Week Total Body Transformation Plan.

But the bad news is you'll have to wait until January 2013 to get your grubby mitts on the book, which will include details of his own "metabolic resistance training programme" and a nutrition guide.

It will be co-written by a bodybuilding expert and Fiddy said he wants it to help readers to "make positive changes and take charge of their overall health".

What do you reckon? Would you rather take fitness tips from Fiddy or Coleen? Comment below...

Kate Winslet invited back to Necker for Christmas

Sir Richard Branson has apparently invited actress Kate Winslet and his wackily named nephew Ned Rocknroll to return to his private island Necker for the festive season.

Kate hooked up with Ned, pictured with her left, after they both spent time on the Caribbean island back in the summer - and when Kate famously carried Sir Richard's mum to safety as the house was engulfed in flames.
And now the Virgin tycoon has reportedly invited the pair of them to spend Christmas and New Year on the island as the house is fixed up in advance of his daughter Holly's wedding there early next year.

The Mirror quoted a source as saying: "Richard's invited her and the kids back to thank her for her bravery in saving his mother."

We imagine they'll have to fly the sprouts in, as they probably don't grow locally.

What do you reckon? Will Kate and Ned last? Comment below...

Heather Mills chauffeur copied disabled permit

PA

A former chauffeur for Heather Mills has admitting making a copy of her disabled parking permit - and claimed he had her consent when he photocopied it.

Stewart Simonson was pleaded guilty to using the badge illegally when he appeared at Enfield Magistrates Court, having been caught by traffic wardens six months after leaving Ms Mills' employ.
He claimed that she often forgot to carry her permit with her when he was driving her, so he made a copy of it with her approval.

Unfortunately for him, traffic wardens noticed that the picture on the reverse of the permit was of a woman they "recognised from the TV".

In a statement to the court, Simonson wrote: "I was employed as a chauffeur by a lady who was awarded a disabled badge. On occasion she would forget to bring the badge, therefore I made a copy.

"I suffer from arthritis which forced me to retire. Six weeks before this I had been discharged from hospital and am in constant pain and unable to walk any distance and applied for a badge myself."

Simonson was ordered to pay £660 in fines and costs.

There was no suggestion that Ms Mills knew Simonson was continuing to use the permit.

PA

A 13-year-old hopeful in American version of The X Factor has collapsed sobbing on stage after being knocked out of the contest, prompting concerns about exploitation of the young hopefuls.

Rachel Crow was sent home after judge Nicole Scherzinger refused to choose between her and Marcus Canty, deliberately sending the vote to deadlock - which revealed that the teenager had the fewest votes.
On hearing the bad news, the youngster slumped to the ground and dissolved into tears - prompting her mother to run on stage to comfort her.

Show host Steve Jones moved to comfort her but was beaten to the punch by head judge Simon Cowell, who shielded her from the cameras as he gave her a hug.

Rachel's was quickly on the stage reassuring her that everything was going to be okay, and between sobs Rachel could be heard replying: "Mommy you promise me?... Promise me?"

The lower age limit for the show in the US is 13, whereas in the UK it is 16.

See the unhappy moment for yourself...



What do you reckon? Is it exploitation? Comment below please...
