Secret Celebrity Gossip #109

[lamaitresse]

Can confirm, am from a red top media background. One incident sticks out- there was a guy killed a few roads from the office- body parts all over the road (collision with a truck). Photographers leapt straight into action taking photos of the mess on the road and journos at the scene getting the deets. On the one hand I get it, that’s their job…. But on the other, where’s your humanity. Hence why I now work in a different sector.

I felt, then and now, that they did it to Paula Yates. The hatred and harassment she got was relentless, OTT and really, really ugly. She didn't help herself and could have made better choices but Bob was no angel, either.

Michael got it too but it seemed to be more "why did you dump a supermodel for her? why did you break up Saint Bob's family?".

Yes to all the female fronted bands! Skunk Anansie! Lush too! And Echobelly, I fancied the singer Sonya Madan so much.

Urgh. Scumbag

I don't understand what Jenna is meant to have said?

basically that she would change lines etc in the script if she felt things didn’t make sense, or suggest changes etc. she came across as someone with a lot of pride in her work tbh and said something like she didn’t want to watch it later and not be happy with it.

as secretlondoner says above, the show runner appears to have taken great offence to it all. but jenna is the show imo. she’s by far the most watchable actor in it and she’s the central character!

My opinion of Alison changed after she made fun of an obviously mentally ill Britney Spears and called her 'cuckoo' on TV but pretended to be her biggest fan to her face. Sorry!

 

[Dogtanian]

I mean, surely there is no way he could actually get it up? At best you’d have to do some porn style over-acting and tell him how good his not-erection feels when it’s not in your minge?

I‘ve thought about this too much.
We need some decent gossip.

I can’t think of any amount of money that would entice me to nosh off Rupert Murdoch.

All this Rupert Murdoch talk reminds me of that Popbitch when his daughter decided to buy Rupert Murdoch a Fitbit to get him fit and twinned to it her own device. She had to switch it off because at 9pm every night it would go mental. Yup he was shagging Jerry Hall at that time. Lucky Ann!

This thread needs complimentary sick bags.

 

[Bloody orange Hell]

I just remembered some Britpop weak tea.

Was told by a friend that her colleague (both worked in a record company) went out with Brian Molko from Placebo for a few months. She said she had to take coke every time she was with him as he was so boring.

Lizzie Cundy makes me laugh. She's utterly pointless and below Z list but she's a trier I'll give her that.

 

[ChickenLicking]

I hope they get real middle aged people, not a bunch of 30 somethings.

It'll be like Married at First Sight UK - all of the contestants will have featured on other reality shows and will be comprised of 25% silicone and filler. Sigh.

I'll probably watch it though.

 

[SaLou]

Not sure if these things have been mentioned in this thread so far so gonna shout em out to ensure they aren't forgotten.



Lorraine's growler

Cliff Richard

Joe Westermans rimjob video.

I'd like to erase the term 'Lorraine's growler' from existence

 

[Foxvint]

Alison Hammond to Bake Off is such a no no for me. No one will get a word in edgeways. And that laugh. No.

 

[Gym&Tonic]

A friend has said Ant has gone a bit manic since going sober and suspects the alcohol and pain killers were actually subduing an overarching mental health difficulty or neurodivergency and whatever we're seeing is the real him now, unmasked.

Dec is a sweetheart and i think he has real twin flame in ant. He loves him so much ( platonically!!)but I think he's definitely the one that keeps them on tv

Im sure I read that Ant has ADHD a while back. Would explain an awful lot. Its also very common for people with ADHD to be on the autism spectrum. When I used to post on Digital Spy years ago before any of Ant’s substance abuse became public knowledge I can remember someone who worked in TV saying that Dec is Eric Morecambe to Ant’s Ernie Wise. He’s the most naturally talented and carries Ant. Dec also comes across as being genuinely nice, which i‘m not sure Ant is.

 

[Silverback]

What's happened to his face? His gf is 23??!! She looks like his mother.

Liam Payne and his girlfriend attend Louis Tomlinson's movie premiere

The singer put on a smart display on Thursday evening as he and girlfriend Kate Cassidy posed for snaps while attending the premiere for new film All Of Those Voices.

I’m so glad you and @Clytemnestra said this. I have this book; it was given to me by friends when I had a mental breakdown.
It’s like a softly softly version of Matt Haig’s ‘inspirational’ shite. I really, really don’t like it. One of the friends who gave it to me said she used to read it when she was feeling down and it made her feel better. I just don’t get it.

I’m going to go against the grain here and declare that I like it. I have it amongst a few books by my bed that make me feel comforted (I have PTSD and anxiety). I also dip into reading a chapter of Winnie the Pooh sometimes for the same reason- it makes me feel safe and warm and fuzzy and like everything is ok.

presented without comment?! i see you

(i feel like a lot of newer pedro fans are going to end up heartbroken tbh. i always thought it was an open secret that he sorta went back into the closet when he became more mainstream famous)

Targeted by trolls, she tried to turn the tables by becoming one

'Mumfluncer' Clemmie Hooper, 38, had gained almost 700,000 followers before it was shockingly revealed that she had been trolling other influencers - and her own husband - online.

Didn't know where to post this then I thought oh they're celebrating Tattle so it has to be Secret Celebrity right? as we are a secret society.

The Tattle sleuths are amazing!!! So much has been uncovered / revealed on here.

 

[Serene Serena]

In Love Island terms it will be anyone over the age of 30 there is definitely a market for it though.As a format there is a lot you can do with it. Surprised they haven’t done an LGBT version yet.

I hope they get real middle aged people, not a bunch of 30 somethings.

 

[lamaitresse]

Actually I never said, "just" a junkie. Addiction consumes a person, makes them selfish and illogical. And unfortunately her issues spilled over onto her family, primarily Peaches, obviously. She isn't deserving of hero worship.

Reread my comment. No-one said "just" an anything.

What you said did read to me as being dismissive, "just" or not? I'd guess the paparazzi following her had the same mindset, which is sad.

I'm well aware that depressed addicts can seem selfish and it's very hard to be around them.

Similarly, you're assuming I'm hero worshipping when I'm actually showing a bit of empathy for a woman who was so terrified near the end she becamse agoraphobic. And I did say some negative things about her.

Well in that case I should be dead I was 22 in 94

I was 33 in 1994. I genuinely am a pensioner

Ant and adhd

Ant McPartlin sent support from ADHD community

The TV presenter says he "found out stuff about me I hadn't addressed for years".

www.bbc.co.uk

I wonder if this only surfaced because his PR team were rebuilding his and that of the Ant & Dec brand (sorry I'm a cynical old cow and neurodivergent myself).

I can't bear Paltrow. The vag candles and bone broth aren't doing much good are they? she's 50 and looks it.

Can you imagine such a restrictive diet as bloody bone broth. Jesus. Why? She has a personal chef I'm sure who could cook her amazing food but no, "give me more broth as I sniff my vagina candle" ... just tedious. Chris Martin had a lucky escape there
