The 9 0'Clock News – Wed 18 Jun

Joan Rivers thrown off Loose Women:
She's never been one to mince her words when it comes to other celebrities, but this time Joan Rivers went a little too far. The 75-year-old comic (we know! We can't believe she's 75 either!) was told to leave ITV1 show Loose Women yesterday after she launched into a swearing rant about Russell Crowe. Talking about greeting actors in Hollywood, the sharp-tongued star branded the Aussie hunk "a piece of f***ing s**t." Ouch. Unfortunately for Joan, the show goes out live, so she was asked to leave during the advert break. We wonder what Russell did to Joan to warrant such an attack? After all, he's known to be such a *cough* friendly *cough cough* and sweet *cough* guy...

Amy’s warning from doctors

Doctors have warned Amy Winehouse that if she doesn't quit drugs NOW she could die. Following a collapse at her home in north London yesterday, Amy was taken to a clinic by her dad Mitch – and she has been undergoing tests ever since. Doctors worry that if she collapses again, she may not get up again, and they think her recent fainting may be linked to the huge overdose she suffered last year. Friends of the star have urged her to take a total break from performing in order to improve her health, with one pal saying, "It's irresponsible of her team to keep putting her on stage. She needs to get away from temptation." We hope that this latest warning will really help Amy, who has also been photographed looking scarily frail in the past few weeks, to realise she needs serious help.

Duffy reduced to tears by John Lydon

Duffy left the MOJO Honours List Awards in tears – after a verbal altercation with Sex Pistols front man John Lydon. The incident happened when the singer hugged Johnny Rotten from behind, causing him to spin on his heels and shout: "You never do that to me!" A shocked Duffy broke down in tears before fleeing the bash. A source said, "Duffy was completely shocked by Johnny's outburst. She just wanted to give him a hug and introduce herself. She was really shaken and upset and went home immediately in tears." Hilariously, though, the ageing rocker later admitted he didn't even know who she was...

George Sampson to star in new Mint Royale video

George Sampson has landed his first professional gig just weeks after winning hit TV show Britain's Got Talent. The break-dancing 14-year-old is set to star in a video for Mint Royale's remix of Singing In The Rain, the song he danced to on the ITV1 programme. George has been bombarded with offers since he won the show, and fans have even been calling Simon Cowells SyCo music asking for him to release a video of the song. An insider said, "The fans are impossible to ignore – the interest in George is through the roof and fans are desperate for more. He was a deserved winner of the show, but it's a difficult sell for a record company because he can't sing. But it's a no brainer to do Singing In The Rain as a video."

Oops! Joan's been naughty...
