Jackiey Budden causes chaos at airport:
Jade Goody's mum Jackiey caused chaos at London's Gatwick airport yesterday, after telling check-in staff that she had a gun in her handbag. Jackiey made the quip after being asked if she had anything dangerous in her bag, replying, "Only my gun." Security staff then searched both Jackiey and all her belongings, causing a delay and almost meaning she missed her flight to Tenerife. A source who works at the airport said last night, "Joking about guns is one thing you don't do at an airport." Another holidaymaker explained how Jackiey was "in a real flap" during the alert, and that she looked completely "flustered" by what was going on. In a further twist, the captain flying the plane Jackiey was due to board then said he didn't want her to fly, and some frantic calls had to be made from head office to persuade him. Oh dear...

Linda is the WINNER of Hell's Kitchen
Dynasty star Linda Evans was crowned the winner of Hell's Kitchen last night, beating comedian Ade Edmondson in the final. Swapping power shoulders for apron strings, Linda endured 16 days under chef Marco Pierre White's supervision before viewers voted her their queen of the kitchen on the ITV1 show. Marco told the star (famous for her role as Dynasty's Krystle Carrington), "You should be proud." Linda admitted that she'd never have taken part in the show if Gordon Ramsay been in charge, saying, "I agreed to do the show with Marco because I knew I would be in great hands. I have tremendous respect for him." Well done Linda!

X Factor Ruth leaves Cowell for £1 million rival deal
The X Factor's Ruth Lorenzo has turned her back on Simon Cowell and signed a lucrative deal with EMI/Virgin. The Spanish singer, who Simon took a definite shine to during the series last year, has told pals the offer was "too good" to refuse. The deal, which wasn't supposed to be unveiled until next month, will see Ruth hailed as the label's new pop hope, and will see Ruth collaborate with industry legends such as Santana, Slash and Aerosmith's Steve Tyler. A friend of the singer says, "Simon was gutted she signed elsewhere. Ruth says she would have loved to work with him, but the EMI deal was just too good for her to knock back."

DJ Talent: "I'd like to spank Kelly Brook!"
Britain's Got Talent star "DJ Talent" has confessed that he has a huge crush on short-term judge Kelly Brook, and that he'd like to "spank her beautiful bottom". The 30-year-old wannabe star, whose real name is Anthony Ghosh, says he's fancied Kelly since her days on The Big Breakfast, and that he thinks they could become husband and wife. Hmm. Talking about his hopes for the future, the gold-toothed Londoner added, "I'm a sensation and I want my song to be a national and worldwide record." Have you been singing DJ Talent's tune ever since Saturday's show? And do you think he has the potential to get to Number One?
