Joan Rivers F****ed Up

American comedian is claiming she was chucked off the ITV1 lunch time show Loose Women for using the 'F' word on air Joan while talking about interviewing Russell Crowe on the red carpet.

Her exact words were, "He is a piece of - get ready to bleep this. Fucking shit!"

Dear Joan, her 700 years and all the anaesthetics from the plastic surgeries are catching up with her and she must had forgotten the show was completely live - NO DELAY.

Joan had been there to promote something or other - oh yeah her London acting debut in the self-penned autobiographical play Joan Rivers: A Work In Progress By A Life In Progress. Such a small ego.......

The 75-year-old said it was the first time she had been removed from a TV show and, "I'm certainly not mellowing with age. Viewers, people have heard the word 'fuck'.
"People have heard it in Sex And The City, it's such a common word." She is so right and I make no qualms about putting it on my blog today. We hear it all the time now and I understand that maybe it was not right for daytime TV however it is the norm. Little kidlets repeat this language from their parents and it is them that are responsible not ancient old women on TV.

Rivers seems to be taking this in her usual stride but is not happy to had been removed from the show; "I'm thrilled - everyone keeps saying to me: 'What more is there in your career? You've got every award there is."' She had been discussing sex on the show and added: "Tell me your rules." She continued: "I would be delighted to go back if they would apologise and give me a gift."
Rivers joked of her show: "It's going to be on ****Tube" and added: "They should be ashamed of themselves." Why because an aged old hasbean could not remember not to swear?

An ITV statement was issued after the show and this stated the usual blurb of: "Guests are always briefed that it is a live daytime show and are reminded not to swear or use inappropriate language."An editorial decision was taken that Joan Rivers should not appear in the final part of the programme."We would like to apologise to Loose Women viewers for the inappropriate language used on [the] show."

Any publicity is good publicity hey Joan? And I do think she can be 'f***ing fantastic!!!! But dear me old woman get over it. The plastic surgery can make you look younger but your marbles may well be going. ALl you had to do was read the contract or listen to someone say to you 'THE SHOW IS LIVE' It was that simple. If she was on American TV, she would have been thrown to the wolves. Over here all we ask is an apology which she has now grudgingly given with a few swear words thrown in.

"Yes, I swore, and I'm so fucking sorry. No one told me the TV show Loose Women was a reality show and that I would be voted off. It's funny: offstage, I hardly ever use profanity. My favorite four-letter word is 'shop.'"

Oh F***** F***! F***!F***! F****** OFF JOAN!

Angelina Jolie, has defended her choice to speak publicly about what she calls her 'dark' self harming days, instead insisting her confessions are a "nice thing to do".

The actress who is heavily pregnant and who in my opinion is always trying to look for a new way to gain publicity, was discussing her past and how she used to enjoy having sex as a teenager using knives.

"The reason I talked about going through certain pains or even cutting myself is that I was already out the other side", she told Entertainment Weekly.
"I knew there were people that do that — and somehow are happy that somebody admitted they did and discussed how they got out of it."

The 33-year-old continued, "I don't see the point of doing an interview unless you're going to share the things you learn in life and the mistakes you make."
"So to admit that I'm extremely human and have done some dark things, I don't think makes me unusual or unusually dark. I think it actually is the right thing to do and I'd like to think it's the nice thing to do", she said.

Meanwhile, the actress is set for a box office show down with Brad Pitt's former wife Jennifer Aniston, when her new film Changeling is released in October. Aniston's romcom 'He's Just Not That Into You' will be out on t

Interesting? I hope Jennifer wins the battle of the babeseone day faces her demons as someone who adopts so many babies as often as she does.

Now the history of self history of self harm is coming out too and we are seeing more of a rounde perseonality. Sadly the rounded personality is disturbed.

Which One is The Love Guru?

Premiere time

Justin Randall Timberlake, (Don't you love that middle name) and Michael Cassandra Myers, (Yes I made the Cassandra up - you've caught me); both turned up at the premiere of The Love Guru at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.


Second time in a week these two have been together.....Is there something we should know?

Thanks to The Mail Showbiz for this. Will compose my own tomorrow so come back and see what the mutt has blogged

A salesman who lied about his CV has won a £100,000 job with Sir Alan Sugar after winning this year's The Apprentice.

Lee McQueen, 30, was tonight the surprise victor of the hit BBC2 show, beating favourite Claire Young to the job. He will become the sales director of a new digital marketing company within Sir Alan's business empire, after winning the final task on the show.

McQueen won the competition after eleven gruelling weeks on the show. He went up against retail buyer Claire Young, 29, global pricing leader Helene Speight, 32 and sales manager Alex Wotherspoon, 32 in the final tasks.

The four were split into two teams with Claire and Lee up against Helene and Alex as they were given a week to create and launch a new male fragrance. Previous contestants on the series were brought back to help them for the finale of the hit reality show.

Alpha's attempt Roulette was branded boring and unoriginal and the association with gambling was branded negative. But Team Renaissance's bottle proved more problematic, the dual themed bottle was costly, and would leave them with little room for profit, so it was Alex and Helene who were the last candidates to be fired.

It was then left to Lee and Claire to fight to be hired by Sir Alan in the final boardroom.
After axing devastated duo Helene and Alex from the competition, Sir Alan told the final two: "It's been a long journey as you know, and at this final hurdle I have to make a very serious decision.

"Claire you have some great attributes and Lee you're very convincing. You are very, very, very convincing. I've concluded...Lee, you're hired!"

McQueen admitted he was 'surprised' to have won because he viewed Claire as a 'formidable opponent'.

Many thought she would win the show after turning around Sir Alan's perceptions of her around on the show and he refused to fire her when given numerous chances.

He said: "There was an element of surprise but I have always had confidence in my ability.

"I believe I won because I was Mr Consistency. If it had been the Premier League for example I would have been top of the table because I won more than everyone else and I consistently delivered. So on that basis I should have won.""From my point of view I did not need to turn anything around. People described me as a rough diamond, but at the end of the day, if you look at it from my perspective I didn't need a b******** from Sir Alan to help me turn it around. "So I have gone into The Apprentice probably more rounded than anyone else if you look at it that way."

But the appointment of the wannabee tycoon, who previously headed a sales team in the recruitment industry, has already come under fire. Employment experts are angry that the winner, whose father is a milkman and mother is a doctor's receptionist, won after lying about his CV.

McQueen, billed as the show's 'rough diamond' suggested he had attended Thames Valley University for 2 years, when he was only there for four months. He also made a series of glaring spelling mistakes on the same CV, which were also overlooked when Sir Alan fired Lucinda Ledgerwood instead last week.

Despite these revelations coming to light on last week's penultimate show, he was allowed to stay on the series and yesterday won the whole thing. His victory has led business organisations to accuse the BBC show of 'sending out the wrong message' to the public about lying to employers.They fear his victory will give the impression, particularly to youngsters, that it is acceptable and 'worth the risk' to mislead potential bosses in your CV.

Stephen Alambritis, head of public affairs at the Federation of Small Businesses, said: "The Apprentice finalist lied on his CV and he still got there. It sends out all the wrong messages and bodes badly for industrial relations in the UK."It says you can actually get away with it and that may encourage those viewing the Apprentice, who are toying with the idea of lying to leave it in, or to put a lie into their CV and use it as justification." He added: "There is not gradient of lying on a CV. A lie is a lie."

Deborah Fernon, an advisor at the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) said: "There's a whole range of issues here. Number one what are you doing letting spelling mistakes through. It's not sending the write message to me. The CV represents you."Also there was the casual relaxedness the show took to the fact he had lied on his CV and that they give him an opportunity to speak up about this and he did not take this. It is an interesting message to send out."She added: "It's not just about who can do the job it is also about things around having personal integrity, honesty and transparency."

Her organisation has just published a report which shows 25 per cent of organisations have withdrawn a job offers because a candidate lied in their CVs.Yesterday McQueen, who starts his new job within the next few weeks, was adamant that the issue had been addressed in the programme. But the winner, from Princes Risborough in Bucks, did reveal he was still 'ashamed of the situation' and admitted his actions had been 'not good enough'. Speaking after his victory he said: "I am not condoning it, and I have already said I am ashamed. But at the end of the day it was a long long time ago and it just shows my frailties and insecurities about my education."

He claimed he had 'put it to bed' saying it would have been a different issue if he had lied directly about something that was relevant to the job. McQueen added: "I got the grilling and Sir Alan put it to bed." He said while he wrongly suggested he was at the university for two years, he had included on his CV that his studies had been incomplete there. Yesterday clearly sensitive about his academic record he refused to reveal the grades of his GCSEs. He said: "All you know is that I need to know is that I passed 8 GCSEs. I wouldn't say they were very good." He denied he had a problem working with women after he was criticised for his behaviour towards two women contestants on the show.

In his new job he will be launching a new mystery product, building a sales team as he works closely with one of Sir Alan's trusted aides. He said: "If I does this well I will continue to work for him over and above the year long contract."

Apprentice Winner - LEE McQUEEN

Alex and Helene have been booted out for designing or NOT designing a bottle for their male perfume and now who is left - Claire and Lee.

Lee was my early favourite but then I had started to feel a real liking for Claire. She's a fighter who has always worked hard for everything she has done and I want her to win.......BUT has Lee pulled it out of the bag? He reminds me of someone I know and there is a side to him which I do not like. But again he is a fighter and he will work hard for Sir Salad

Who is the winner......SIR ALAN WILL DECIDE.

LEE McQUEEN

Osbourne-X FACTOR=No Judge+COLE=Judge

It has been announced that Girls Aloud member, Cheryl Cole will replace Sharon Osbourne as a judge on The X Factor.

There were a few names in the hat including Spice Girl Mel B and singer/TV host Charlotte Church, however Cheryl has won the coveted (?) job and will now be joining Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and Dannii Minogue on the judging panel.

Sharon Osbourne, 55, announced her decision to quit on Friday and yesterday (Monday) was interviewed on Radio One. She said of her decision to quit: “It’s just time to move on.“I love the show, I love everybody there, the producers, Simon (Cowell). But it’s just time to move on.”As I said in my last blog entry, she is tipped to be a contestant on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing.

Sharon went on to say: “I’ve heard that they’re asking certain people (to be the new judge).“I think they’re asking Cheryl (Cole) who I love. They’re asking Mel B.“It’ll be interesting, it’ll take the show to a different place, it’ll be probably even better than it has been if that’s possible.”Asked if there was one person she would prefer", she said: “I think Cheryl.” That's a big thumbs up from the out-going judge then to the incoming one.

Ms Osbourne denied that she asked for more money and was turned down.

But she admitted she was a “drama queen” and also said that “Yes, I was negotiating and I asked for a ridiculous amount of money and they offered me an obscene amount of money and it just doesn’t change the way I feel. I think I’ve done my best and that’s it.”Asked whether ridiculous was more than obscene or obscene more than ridiculous, she said: “It’s all ridiculous in this industry, we’re all bloody overpaid.“We all get paid too much that’s why we’re all drama queens. That’s why we’re all spoilt brats.”She said: “I loved it, it was the best four years of my life but I gotta do something else right now.”Osbourne said of Louis Walsh: “Lulu’s gonna stay. He just loves doing the show, he really does.“And I do, I love the show, I owe the show so much but it’s just time to move on.”She joked she would like to see Dannii Minogue in a shark tank, before adding: “No, no..”

For Cheryl , who is 24, it will be life on the other side of the fence so to speak as she originally came to fame and fortune by winning on Popstars: The Rivals, reality TV show. It "scary" to be joining the ITV1 show. Cheryl said but at least she knows what it is like for the contestants. This could bring a new dynamic to the show - who the heck knows and I have no idea what Simon Cowell is doing anymore - I think I am too old.

The Girls Aloud star said "I'm so excited to be part of such a great show and although it's scary joining a huge programme like The X Factor, it's a massive honour to be following in the footsteps of Sharon Osbourne.
"The rest of the girls have said they're right behind me, which is really important for me as it will be weird to be on the other side of the fence this time. So whilst we get started on the next album, it will be brilliant to be a judge on The X Factor."

Is Sharon Sashaying To Strictly?

Rumours, rumours, rumours.......

What was happening this time last year? Oh yes, Louis Walsh was SACKED! Lots of publicity taken away from the BBC's winter anchor show and placed firmly on to Simon Cowell's baby. Lots of money into his pocket and his Hollywood teeth have been paid for.

This year Sharon Cowell...Oh slip of the tongue, Sharon Osbourne - has allegedly asked for an extra £500,000 to do her judging thing. That amount may be more or less depending on which newspaper or website you read. You know what it is like - Chinese whispers, the amount gets bigger every time it is repeated. Missus Osbourne has also never got on with Dannii Minogue or so the media would have us believe? Again a ploy to get us watching? Yeah you know how it works. Alas the ploy backfired and Sharon has decided to leave the X Factor but not because of the money - That's just a RUMOUR.

A statement released by one of Sharon's publicity team said: "Sharon Osbourne announced today that after four fantastic and successful series of The X Factor she has decided to leave the show.
"Sharon would like to thank the wonderful British public for their enormous support during what's been an exciting ride. She would also like to take this opportunity to thank Simon Cowell and ITV while wishing them all the best for the next series. Sharon will be making no further comment."

So what is next for Missus Osbourne?
According to the Sun (and they even have a mocked up picture), Sharon, will be joining the BBC's Strictly Come Dancing team. Oh joy, I can't wait......I'd rather boil my head in acid than tolerate her dancing and screeching all in one show. Only major flaw for Sharon is that the dancers have to show expression and it may be very difficult for her with her plastic surgically induced face to show anything but shock.

But is this all true or a case of the publicity bandwagon rolling trying to take away coverage from Big Brother and other reality shows?

ITV have made an official statement:
"Sharon Osbourne has decided to leave The X Factor after four fantastic years," an ITV spokesman said.
"ITV thanks her for her immense contribution to the show and for all her humour, compassion and energy. She has been a tremendous judge and mentor on the programme but we respect her wish to leave and wish her the very best with her future projects."

OK.....Bye then Sharon. Back to America is it?

Seems so, Sharon on Strictly is a bit of a laugh really and the truth is that she loves America and her life is mostly over there. She judges America's Got Talent and with her new face, she's bound to cash in on what it can bring her. With Simon as her mentor, she'll go far - Look at what he's doing for Leona Lewis!
