Pete hits back at Katie over 'lucky' divorce kids comments

Filed under:

Peter AndreCelebrity Dad of the Year Peter Andre has blasted ex-wife Katie Price (again) for saying that children with divorced parents are "lucky".

As is Katie's usual speak-before-thinking style, she announced on This Morning last week that "any child that has parents who are divorced are lucky. They get extra Christmas presents, birthday presents and extra trips."

But as father of "lucky" Junior and Princess, Pete took a different view of the matter.

In his New! magazine column, the Aussie wrote: "She said that as long as it happens before the kids are a certain age, it doesn't affect them."I really don't agree with this. I think that divorce absolutely affects kids, no matter what age they are and that if it can be avoided, it should be."

He did concede though that for some "divorce is the only option" but the children involved "certainly shouldn't be classed as 'lucky'".

Pete added: "No amount of possessions make up for the fact that you don't have both parents around you all the time."

Yeah... there's probably not too many people who would disagree with you there, Pete.

Mind you, judging by the massive collection of birthday presents he gave Junior and Princess on his reality show recently, there are probably very few material possessions they haven't already got.

What do you think? Is Pete right to speak out against Katie or is time they both let things go? Leave your comments below...

Gaga strips for Vanity Fair

Lady Gaga nude in Vanity FairPop phenomenon Lady Gaga can now count a nude photoshoot among her many achievements.

The Bad Romance singer stripped off for Vanity Fair but admitted that she'd battled her fair share of demons on the way to the top.

Gaga opens up about drug use and her fear of sex in the September issue, due out this Friday.

Explaining that she feels "perpetually lonely" in relationships, Gaga came out with this little gem: "I have this weird thing that if I sleep with someone they're going to take my creativity from me through my vagina."Hmm... we're not sure that's possible - and if she continues to remain celibate, we may never know.

The 24-year-old also mentions her battle with bulimia.

Whilst eating in bed, Gaga was called to a meeting with a record executive and had to be ready in half an hour. She revealed: "I said, 'I'll be right there'. I got up, went to the bathroom, threw up, did a line of coke, went to the meeting."

She added : "I was completely mental and had just been through so much."

Thankfully she's down to just "occasional" cocaine use, these days but insists that she doesn't want her fans to "ever emulate that".

Simon Cowell sings like 'strangled hyenas'

Simon CowellFor years he's avoided any situation where he would be expected to flaunt his vocal chords, but finally Simon Cowell has let his guard down during a karaoke session on holiday - and the results are not reported to have been very pleasant.

Simon was cruising the Med with fiancée Mezhgan Hussainy and ex-girlfriend Sinitta, when the offending noises occurred - and it was pal Paul McKenna who delivered the verdict.

A source told The Mirror: "Simon, by his own admission, is not pitch perfect - so Paul laid into his mate after a tuneless rendition of a Rat Pack number, and had everyone in stitches."As Si finished with a click of the fingers and a little hip thrust, Paul joked, 'Frankly, Simon - it is Simon, right? - I've heard more tune from a pair of strangled hyenas. I've seen bananas displaying more personality than you."

Apparently though, he had more luck at "jet ski races" - it's a tough life.

What do you reckon? Should Simon be passing judgment on singers when he's "tuneless" himself? Leave your comments below...

Cher's looking well

Well, kinda. We had to do a double take here at Eleven towers when we spotted this pic. The high cheekbones, deep-set eyes and lustrous hair are all present and correct but we never had Cher down as a smoker.

Then we realised that all was not quite how it seemed...It wasn't Cher at all. It was Pete Burns. Brrrrrr.

The Dead or Alive singer and former Celeb Big Brother housemate was enjoying a cocktail and a fag with a mate in central London whilst channelling his inner (and outer) Cher.

The star hasn't had a hit since the late 80's but we reckon he could earn a decent crust on the cabaret circuit belting out the likes of Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves and Believe.

Publicans beware! Wino and Barton buddy up in Camden

Filed under:

Left: Amy Winehouse. Right: Mischa Barton.Pub landlords across Camden will either be rubbing their hands together or battening down the hatches with the news that Amy Winehouse and Mischa Barton have become pals.

Amy, renowned for her love of all things alcoholic, and Mischa, notoriously troubled one-time star of The OC, were snapped getting to know each other at Wino's favourite hangout, the Hawley Arms (where else?).It was all very polite though - they shook hands and air-kissed like proper celebs before sitting down to reminisce about their past exploits... who's been to rehab more times and so on (probably).

Mind you, Amy is reportedly still drug-free and Mischa is said to be giving booze a wide berth since her involuntary spell in a psychiatric ward last year, so presumably they do have a thing or two in common.

Let's just hope it doesn't get competitive - a drinking game between Mischa Barton and Amy Winehouse can only end badly.

What do you think? Do Mischa and Amy make a good pair or does it spell trouble? Leave your comments below...

Li-Lo hopes to publish 'prison journal'

Filed under:

Lindsay LohanShe's only been there 14 days, but Lindsay Lohan hasn't been wasting her time in prison, oh no.

The actress has been busily brushing up on her writing skills - and she's looking to make some extra cash out of it.

Sources told TMZ that during her time behind bars, Lindsay's been documenting "every single thing about her life" in jail and has filled several notebooks.

She hopes to get the works published once she's finished in rehab.Now, ordinarily if we heard a 24-year-old had filled several notebooks with their life story we'd be tutting by now, but in Lindsay's case we wouldn't be surprised if these 'journals' were the size of phonebooks.

Aside from the inevitable "get up, stare at walls, listen to abusive shouts from fellow inmates, sob into pillow" stuff from her time in jail, Lindsay has reportedly penned ramblings on everything from relationships to family.

She's even been jotting down her dreams which, having seen what goes on in her real life, must be scary to say the least.

Still, Li-Lo's enough of a wildchild to see her publishing dreams come true - and this is one celeb autobiography that might just be juicy enough to take a peak at.

What do you think? Will Lindsay's prison journals make for interesting reading? Leave your comments below...

Video: Inception star in stitches after bike crash

Filed under: ,

Joseph Gordon-LevittJoseph Gordon-Levitt might have made it big as one of the stars of Inception, but now he's making a name for himself as a bit of a daredevil (or a bad cyclist, one or the other).

The actor managed to crash his bike in spectacular fashion (we assume) whilst filming his new movie Premium Rush.

Gordon-Levitt plays a bike messenger in the movie but unfortunately he rammed his transport into the back of a New York taxi on Sunday.

The resulting forearm cut needed 31 stitches - but he's not bothered.In fact, he seems a little bit proud. He took to his own blog to reveal: "My first real wreck today. Busted through the rear window of a cab. Luckily got my elbows up. Coulda been way worse (sic).

"No, but it was my fault, I was going too fast. The direct, Dave Koepp, was extremely concerned for my well-being, but I made him record the wound."

We have to admit, judging by the state of the rear windscreen, Mr Gordon-Levitt was a tad lucky.

Check out the aftermath of the accident here (includes strong language)...

Amy Winehouse out with pals in the West EndJust yesterday we were telling you how Amy Winehouse had struck up a friendship with fellow 'troubled' star Mischa Barton in Camden.

Well, her evening didn't end there. In fact she went on to hit the West End with pals, hold hands with Russell Brand's dad and dance around in Chinatown before taking a taxi to Marylebone where she (understandably) passed out.

The Sun has published photos of Wino slumped on a bench, reportedly outside Inn 1888 (which is owned by boyfriend Reg Traviss' folks), at 9.30am.And when she awoke from her alcohol-induced slumber, she reportedly almost got run over stumbling across the road.

The kindly cabbie who drove Amy to her final destination after a 16-hour bender, Michael Prenpeh, told The Sun: "She was totally gone. She'd no idea what she was doing.

"She said her boyfriend had no respect for her and was blubbing away - I gave her a tissue."

Oh dear... and things had been going so well.

Kylie MinogueWe're used to seeing pop princess Kylie Minogue looking all glam and fabulous these days but there was a double take situation at the airport in Melbourne.

Obviously returning to the scene of her soap triumphs has reignited her love of curly hair and for a minute we just couldn't help blurting out the name of her Neighbours alter ego.Admittedly Charlene probably couldn't afford those oversized shades anyway, but it brought back fond memories of Neighbours in its heyday.

Of course, Kylie still looks fabulous and natural with that tell-tale hint of designer glamour and it's always good to see her looking so well.

All we need now is the return of Scott's... sorry, we mean Jason Donovan's mullet.

Rihanna 'swaps numbers' with Brit boyband member

Filed under: ,

Left: Rihanna. Right: Siva Kaneswaran of The WantedApart from being part of hot new boyband The Wanted, Siva Kaneswaran has another reason to brag - he's been getting text messages from pop superstar Rihanna.

Apparently the pair met at Mahiki after Capital FM's Summertime Ball back in June and RiRi made a point of getting know the 21-year-old.And that's an opportunity he wasn't going to pass up. He told Metro: "She is very nice and very tall. She gave me a dance, she's really nice - we did swap numbers."

We hope he means they danced, because her giving him a dance means something entirely different to us.

Anyway, Rihanna didn't stop there. She's been texting him since that magical night so he may have to set his sights a bit higher than "all of The Saturdays" from now on.

What do you think? Is there a Rihanna/Wanted collaboration on the cards? Leave your comments below...

Have you been eating that watch Ke$ha?

We're not sure whether to applaud shocking(ly bad) pop star Ke$ha on her bold fashion choices or just admit that she looks a bit of a mess.

Either way when she pitched up at the Casio Shock the World event in New York, we weren't sure whether she'd been munching on Rollercola Balls or chewing on her luminous blue G-Shock watch.Judging by the number of chains and other paraphernalia around her wrist, we can only assume she was attempting to chew herself free and, in the process, matched her lips to the attention-grabbing timepiece.

Of course, she may just be going through an experimental phase - either way, she's got a lot to learn about accessorising.

Kanye Tweets + New Yorker cartoons = hilarity

Kanye WestHe's the hottest property on Twitter right now - and some bright sparks have been teaming gaffe-prone rapper Kanye West's tweets up with New Yorker cartoons - with hilarious results.

Kanye has been wondering at the world of social networking since he joined Twitter a couple of weeks ago and, in amongst plenty of tweets about material possession that he simply must have, he's been offering his own little gems of advice.

Don't believe us? Well, how about "office clothes are the s**t", for example - or the little known but life-changing: "Fur pillows are hard to actually sleep on."Anyway, though his storming of the VMA stage last year would seem to prove otherwise, Mr West does seem to have a sense of humour because he tweeted: "They put my tweets with NewYorker cartoons hilarious!!"



We have to admit, we got more than a few chuckles out of them but why not decide for yourselves. View more Kanye-inspired cartoons here.

Liz Hurley in Ibiza bikini shocker

Filed under:

Liz Hurley in IbizaNot that long ago, Liz Hurley swore she wouldn't be slipping into any skimpy bikinis in public again - but since she's launched her own line of swimming cossies, she's clearly changed her mind.

Though she started off in a red one-piece on holiday in Ibiza, Liz braved the sun and the paparazzi in one of her own creations - a £122 animal print bikini - in order to look properly glam aboard a posh yacht with hubby Arun Nayar.She recently said: "I can't think of anything worse in the world than another bikini shoot - and I've got two next month. It's unbearable, and I bring it all on myself. I've got nobody else to blame. It's literally torture."

Okay, so the see-through cosmetics bag looks a bit like a freebie but other than that, we can't understand what she's on about - even at 45 she still looks smoking hot.

But fans of Liz will be disappointed to know that while Living TV is set to follow her about for a new reality show, there won't be too much flesh on show.

She lives on an organic farm in Gloucestershire, so expect wellies and wax jackets instead.

Don't you know who I am? - Cowell's got bouncer trouble

Simon Cowell and Mezghan Hussainy at Disco Billionaire in ItalyHere's something you don't see every day - Simon Cowell, with stunning fiancée in tow, seemingly being refused entry by a bouncer.

Simon and Mezghan decided on a night of clubbing while on holiday in the Med and Disco Billionaire in Porto Cervo, Italy must have sounded right up his street.But it looks like he was almost foiled by a bouncer who we imagine has always waited to say the words: "If your name's not on the list, you're not coming in."

We can't tell for sure, obviously, but it must have been all too easy for Simon to slip in that old celebrity favourite: "Don't you know I am?"

Whether he eventually made it inside to party with the beautiful people, we don't know - the bouncer could be singing his own version of You Raise Me Up, for all we know.

But may we suggest Simon, that while the missus looks fabulous, showing off your chest rug and wearing an old pair of jeans doesn't get you in everywhere... no matter how famous you are.

It's a picture that's ripe for a caption competition - leave your suggestions below...

Amy wobbles out with Reg after 16 hour bender

Amy Winehouse and Reg TravissA very wobbly-looking Amy Winehouse stepped out with her fella Reg Traviss yesterday for yet another night out. The pair were attending the opening night of new restaurant and club Shaka Zulu in Camden.

But it looks like Amy's 16 hour bender has taken its toll... on both of them.First of all, Wino seemed to struggle to stay upright and second of all, Reg didn't seem that keen on helping her.

In fact, we'd go so far as to say (and we're putting it mildly, here) he looked a bit disgruntled. Of course, that could just be the Kray twin thing he insists on doing or it could be because his girlfriend was found slumped on a bench outside his parents' pub the other morning.

Amy was reportedly blubbing to the cab driver the other night about how Reg "doesn't respect" her and we have to admit, it looks like she may have been right.

Amy and Reg

The pair didn't look any happier when they got to the venue either, where Amy appeared to be feeling the effects of this week's antics and Reg looking like he'd rather be anywhere else... with anyone else.

Still, the course of true love never did run smooth.

We've given Lily Allen a bit of a hard time in the past, what with her on-off retirement and stuff.

But the 25-year-old singer has announced that she and "normal" boyfriend Sam are expecting their first child so it looks like she may have been telling the truth when she said she would be taking a break from music.

Lily has, of course, been telling people how much she wants a baby for some time now so we're pleased that it's finally happened for the happy couple.Lily, who has just had her three-month scan, told The Sun: "It goes without saying we are both absolutely delighted."

She's been dating decorator Sam since July of last year and has referred to him as "the love of my life".

"We've never had one argument and there's absolutely nothing about him that annoys me," she explained.

Give it a year and she might have to slightly alter that statement but congratulations all the same.

Check out ITN's video coverage of the story...
