Katie Price makes enemies in Ibiza:
Katie Price is not making herself very popular in Ibiza, if these new claims are to be believed. The model, who has been on a dedicated partying spree on the Spanish island all week, is alleged to have made a number of rude comments to fans who have approached her. One girl was told she "seriously needed" to lose weight from her thighs, while another was branded "ugly" with Katie asking her what she was doing out in Ibiza. Last night Katie donned a tiny gold outfit to attend a Swankys party with new pals Anthony Lowther and Matt Peacock. The parties are run by the duo, and only a select number of people are invited, but most tend to be glamour models. The only rule is that you have to wear as little as possible. Nice. It is rumoured that Katie has started seeing model Anthony, but he has refused to admit this, saying instead that she's "very sexy" and they get along "brilliantly". Watch this space...

Madonna's new daughter arrives in the UK
Malawian orphan Mercy James finally arrived in the UK this weekend, to be greeted by new mum Madonna, new sister Lourdes and her two new brothers, Rocco and David Banda. The tot is said to have been very excited when she was reunited with the megastar, and has been happily settling into life away from Malawi. One friend said, "Em [Madonna] has been waiting for this moment for years. The next few days are all about cocooning Mercy from the world and getting her used to being around her new family." Madonna's ex Guy Ritchie has also visited the house to meet the new addition to the family.

Ronaldo discusses night with Paris
Cristiano Ronaldo has spoken for the first time about his "friendship" with Paris Hilton, admitting that the long distance issue could be a problem. "She lives thousands of miles away," explained the smooth-legged striker. "I am busy in Madrid, so I am not sure if we will be able to see each other." Despite refusing to admit that he and the heiress were anything other than good friends, Ronaldo did say he thought Paris was a "really cool girl" and that they had a good time talking. "I am a young man and Paris is a young lady," he explained. "Us talking in a club is just what normal people our age do." Boo. We were really hoping these two would get it together permanently. Paris would make an amazing WAG.

X Factor hopefuls must audition again
X Factor hopefuls who've already been through the normal audition process of the talent show have been told they may have to audition again, after the show's producers decided to change the format. Auditionees will now have to sing in front of a live audience, similarly to what happens on Britain's Got Talent. The move will only affect those who have already auditioned in Scotland, with an insider saying, "We aim to be back up in Scotland at the end of next month and it looks like everyone who auditioned will come and audition again." heatworld spoke to someone who used to work on the hit show just this weekend, and they told us that changing the format would be "the worst idea possible" and that a live audience will "ruin the magic of auditions". What do you think about the introduction of a live audience for auditions?
