Strictly star quizzed by immigration officials:
Famously critical Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood is set to be quizzed by immigration officials – over claims that he lied in order to stay in Britain. The 41-year-old applied for residency and said that he and his British wife Jane were happily married – but it turns out that they were actually planning a divorce. In reality, Craig actually left his wife Jane after a year of marriage to live with a gay partner. In a letter to immigration chiefs written back in 1992, Craig stated, "My wife and I have been living together since our marriage on August 20, 1990." Craig was aware that the terms of his residency would be subject to change if he was no longer living with his wife – and it is alleged that he failed to inform the authorities that his living arrangements had altered. However, Craig's ex-wife Jane, who is now remarried, claimed yesterday, "My marriage to Craig was never a sham." Ooer... In other Strictly news, Gary Rhodes is the latest celeb to be booted off the dance floor, with the judges branding his jive routine "flat-footed". We actually thought he was quite amusing...

Blake pens sick letter to Mitch
While Blakestillincarcerated waits for his release from prison, he’s been a busy boy. He’s been writing abusive letters to Amy Winehouse’s long-suffering dad Mitch – a six-page missive, no less, in which Blake has detailed violent threats against his father-in-law. A friend of Mitch’s says, “I could hear that Mitch was shaking when he phoned to tell me about the letter. He couldn’t even bring himself to read it out loud as it was just too sickening. But he told me that Blake described graphic scenes from a horror movie, in which Mitch is the victim. Part of Mitch wants to pursue this further with the police, maybe even taking out a restraining order.” The letter is currently in the hands of solicitors – although Mitch is reported to be apprehensive about pressing charges.

Tributes flood in for cancer-stricken Wendy
Former EastEnders star Wendy Richard is said to be "overwhelmed" by all the messages of support that have been flooding in since she announced the news she is suffering from cancer. The 65-year-old, who became a household name as Walford battleaxe Pauline Fowler, revealed this weekend that she has an aggressive form of cancer that has attacked her kidneys and spread to her bones. She is now set to wed her partner of 12 years, 45-year-old John Burns, at the end of the week but, devastatingly, she is also having to plan her funeral. Many of her showbiz pals have voiced their concern, with Paul O'Grady saying, "I'm in shock. She's so brave. I've sent her an email saying I'm here for her, but she's a toughie and I'm not giving up hope." Wendy's former EastEnders co-star Shane Richie also said, "My heart goes out to Wendy – all I can do is wish her health for the future." The actress has actually beaten cancer twice before, but this time the disease is much more aggressive. "My specialist said I had several useful years ahead of me," admitted Wendy, "But since then it's got worse." A spokesperson for EastEnders said, "Everyone is thinking of Wendy and wishing her well."
 
Alesha gropes the girls
When it was announced that one of our favourite pop stars of all time, Alesha Dixon, was releasing new songs, we were very very excited. And it seems Little Ms Mis-teeq’s just as excited about her new single The Boy Does Nothing, because she gets to grope some ladies in the video. She says, “When I was told I’d be getting up close and personal with six dancers for the video, I didn’t realise they meant girls raher than guys! But I had a lot of fun as the choreography was so cheeky and flirty. There’s even a section where I brush past all of their bottoms and have a little touch. I really enjoyed it.” Oo-er.
