X Factor 2010: Simon says “prostitute” will not be axed from the show, plus Alex Burke a “diva”?

A report in The Sun recently claimed that an X Factor hopeful, Chloe Mafia, was working as a “£160 per hour prostitute” but Simon Cowell says that she won’t necessarily be axed from the show.

After the report surfaced, it seems that some viewers suggested Chloe – who’s audition hasn’t yet been aired – should be dropped by the show…

However, Simon told the paper that as long as Chloe “isn’t working” while she’s on the X Factor, it shouldn’t make any difference to her staying in the contest.

He said, "We haven't banned prostitutes. I think you'd want to show the story if we're allowed.

“I want to see the story.

"We can't just take people off the show because they might do something that upsets some people.

Ultimate Big Brother: John’s gone and Coolio & Nadia’s big row!

As was fairly inevitable, John McCririck left the UBB house last night, and I can’t say I’ll miss the sight of him in his baggy pants… shudders violently.

However, just before he left, Nadia and Coolio got into a very big row after Coolio apparently hid Nadia’s clothes by way of a “joke.”

Not unreasonably, Nadia was fumigating – remember how in her original BB appearance she told BB she was “fumigating” that they wouldn’t give her any cigs?

Anyway, she let rip at Coolio while everyone was gathered on the sofas for the eviction. Click here to see their row!

Later on, Coolio told Chantelle – who seems to be the only person in the house who likes him…

Ultimate Big Brother: Josie has left the house!

Josie has left the Ultimate Big Brother house after she walked out of the fire escape in the garden.

And weirdly, she ran right into the arms of John James who was at the studio to record a message for her.

She left so fast, she was still wearing her mic and was heard to tell John, "Thank God you were here when I came out."

John hugged her and said, "You're so stupid!" Fortunately, he followed that with, "I love you so much!"

Josie told him, "I just thought f**k this, it's not worth it."

Josie also said sorry to the show's producers for quitting...

"I'm so sorry, guys. They're all really nice people don't get me wrong.

"I'm normal, I'm not a celebrity. I'm not like that."

Big Brother 11: John James rebels against BB!

John James has told his fellow housemates that when he’s evicted, he will refuse to be interviewed by Davina…

He says this is because BB “f**ked me over” during a Diary Room chat yesterday, during which, John asked to leave but BB tried to talk him out of.

He was even offered a phone call home to make him stay.

John told Josie, "They’ve f**ked me off.

"They’ve done everything in their power, they want me here.

"You should’ve seen them last night, they want me in here more than anything. That’s why they gave me phone calls and stuff.

"I've got one more chance to not give them what they want...

“They want to interview me, they do - they know they're going to get publicity from me, they do. They're using me."

Big Brother 11: Is Sam pushing Corin too far?

Yesterday, the world’s most annoying housemate ever, Sam Pepper, took and hid Corin’s make-up bag, yet again.

The first time it happened, Corin took it fairly well, in that she didn’t smack him upside the head with something heavy – which I would’ve done – but on finding it gone yet again, she got annoyed…

As did Josie who knew it was Sam who’d taken it, so she gave him a warning to stop being such a t*t.

Her warning came as BB told everyone to gather on the sofas to hear about their new task, but Corin, who was outside in the smoking area, point blank refused to go inside until her make-up was returned.

She told Josie, "I'm not coming inside until he gives it me back."

Sam, being the pillock he is, laughed as he denied he’d taken it, but of course, Josie had seen him take it.

Big Brother 11: Sam hides the tobacco! Too far Pepper, too far…

It seems that Sam has made it his life’s work to be as annoying and irritating as is humanly possible, however last night, he took it just that bit too far…

Josie and Corin hunted high and low for their tobacco, and while they were looking, they noticed that Sam was giggling and taking far too much interest in what they were doing.

So, figuring the missing tobacco was another of Sam’s ‘pranks’, Corin confronted him.

At first, he denied that he’d taken their tobacco, but when it became apparent that Corin was getting annoyed, he told her that he’d tell her which room he’d hidden it in, but after that, they’d have to find it themselves.

Frankly, I think it’s testament to Corin’s good nature that she didn’t beat him to death with his own shoes…

Big Brother 11: Will we ever get rid of Sam?! Do you even want to?

Yesterday, BB punished some of the housemates for talking about nominations, yet again, but there was a twist to the punishment this time…

During the afternoon, BB gathered everyone on the sofas then played to the house some conversations between Dave, Rachel and John James, and they were all about how Sam would be out as soon as the HMs could nominate him.

My god, they never learn do they?

One snippet of the conversation was John James saying, “Of course he's going to be up...everyone's going to put him up.”

Dave then added that Sam would be “high on the nominations hit list.”

As a result, Dave, John James and Rachel are forbidden from nominating Sam next week. So that’s three votes he’s been saved from.

Big Brother 11: Is Sam the most obnoxious HM ever??

He’s only been in the house for a couple of days, but new housemate Sam has managed to pee everyone off royally, and last night, he accused Josie of hoping to profit from her relationship with John James.

It all began when John asked the other housemates how the press covered BB here in the UK. Dave and Steve told him that there’s something in the tabloid papers every day, and Mario said that romances are always covered.

He said, “The slightest sniff of romance in here and they go crazy for it.”

Andrew then pointed out that a house romance would increase the amount of money that a housemate could make after the show. John James seemed amused and shocked and said, “People would honestly pay? Bullsh*t! No f**king way!”

Big Brother 11: How annoying were Jedward?! And Sam’s a tool, is he not?

Last night’s eviction night show was awesome on many levels, and specifically because Davina went into the house and messed with the housemates. I love that woman.

But what wasn’t brill were Jedward. First off – and no quelle surprise here – they mimed a cover version of All The Small Things, then, one of them pretty much slammed Andrew and nearly knocked him flying.

I don’t know if Andrew just hates Jedward or if he was trying to pretend to be ignoring them, as per the Ignore the Obvious task, but he looked rather like he’d just shat himself as he scowled at the lads…

It may have had 1.46million viewers but Five's new talent show, a Britain's Got Talent meets Glee, is utter rubbish.

While the open moments were impressive as all six acts of the night took to the stage to open the show in one giant combined number, it was all just a matter of "ok, that's cool... but who are these people?"

Unlike most other talent formats, there are no audition episodes.  It's straight into the competition.  Acts perform and then at the end of the show, people vote.  For 12 minutes!  For 12 minutes?  Are these people crazy?  I'm introduced to 6 acts, get a short intro, see them perform once and am then asked to decide who I want to see in the final.  It's all just a bit quick, really.

Big Brother 11: John James tells Josie “I think I’m in love with you”!

After days and days of “nah I don’t think of Josie that way” denial, last night, John James cuddled up to Josie in the bedroom and uttered those words we’ve all been waiting to hear…

“I think I love you Jose” he said, but an embarrassed Josie didn’t know what to say, so she didn’t say anything! Omigod!

He made the revelation while the rest of the house were enjoying a party as a reward for passing yesterday’s Tug of War task, and after he’d come out with his confession, and Josie ignored it, they both went back into the living area and carried on as normal…

Big Brother 11: John James, Keeley and Caoimhe row!

Yesterday, Caoimhe told BB that she wants to go… again!

Speaking to John James and Corin in the garden, she once again claimed she “can’t do it anymore” and that “my head’s wrecked.”

It seems BB told her that if she still wants to go in the morning – as in, today – then they would arrange it.

I don’t know about you but I’m sick of her doing this now. I wish she would just leave. I don’t think there’s been one day when she hasn’t said she’s going!

Click here to see her talking to John and Corin about it.

Shabby and Caoimhe “We're leaving the house” As if!

Well today’s Oh Yeah Like That’s Going To Happen story is that Shabby and Caoimhe have told BB that they both want to walk…

It all started at a party last night thrown by BB as a reward. Ife apparently was dancing around like a nutter, and Shabby and Caoimhe had a good bitch about it.

From their vantage point/bitch spot, Shabby and Caoimhe watched through the windows as Ife threw herself around the living area. Shabby – while banging her head on a wall, as you do – yelled “This is like a GCSE party” to which Caoimhe added, “It’s like a church group get together.”

Their bitching continued, and soon, Ife had heard some of it. Immediately bursting into tears, she declared that in her prior befriending of Shabby and Caoimhe, she’s been “naïve.”

BB Dave: “I’m in a house full of sinners”

"I'm dousin' you with imaginary holy water, you sinner..."

BB housemate, Dave, has told Shabby during a heart-to-heart that the BB house is full of sinners.

He made the comment as he and Shabby moaned about the fact that they’re pretty much always up for eviction.

Shabby told Dave that she’s missing home and friends, and added, “I'm just tired of these people, Dave.”

Never one to miss out on a good whine, Dave said, “How do you think I feel? I don't want to hang around with sinners.”

He went on to explain that he’d been sitting in the living area when a few of the others launched into a conversation about their “most bad sexual experiences.”

Shabby wants Caoimhe to go tonight!

Yes, the love has gone. Packed its little pink case and bogged off, for Shabby has told Josie that in a choice between herself leaving, or Caoimhe leaving, she wants her Irish pal to do one.

That little crush didn’t last long did it? I think it was Hat-gate that caused the untimely death of that.

Anyway, Shabby made her comments late last night when she and Josie were outside having a cigarette, but she reckons that she only feels that way because Caoimhe “wants” to go. Yeah, sure she does…

She said, "In a way I want Caoimhe to go more than me, because she wants to go.

“And I only sometimes want to go."

Josie said, "You'll feel so lost without her in here."

Shabby replied, "I don't think I will. I'll have a shit week, but I have started speaking to people a lot more.
