Cheryl's sex ban for Alexandra:
So, Alexandra Burke is our new X Factor winner – and what a deserving one she is. The jubilant 20 year old managed to regain her composure long enough to have a chat about her victory yesterday, and also let slip that mentor Cheryl Cole had banned her from going near the boys. "Cheryl told me to keep away from men," she joked, "There will be no romance – I'm all about the music." Alexandra, who collapsed to the floor as the result was announced on Saturday's show, says she wants to use her new status to provide a better life for her mum. Alexandra's mum Melissa suffered kidney failure last summer and almost died. Alexandra admits, "I want to make a career so I can get her better treatment – and I do want a better life for me and my family." The singer also admitted that Saturday seems like a blur, adding, "I thought I was going to have a panic attack when they said my name, afterwards I was in Simon Cowell's dressing room, crying in his arms." What did you think of Saturday's final, and have you downloaded Alexandra's winning single yet?

The latest on the Strictly voting fiasco
Strictly Come Dancing viewers are up in arms after a voting blunder on Saturday night. The BBC are refusing to refund any cash and instead have rolled the votes over to next week's final. TV producers scrapped the phone vote when they realised that the public could not save Tom Chambers from a dance-off, and instead chose to put all three couples through. Strictly fan Roy Greenwood has accused the BBC of ripping off viewers, saying, "Because of the BBC's incompetence, we've been fooled into handing over our hard-earned cash. the whole thing stinks." The phone poll was scrapped because the judges' marks for Rachel Stevens and Lisa Snowden were so high, it meant Tom would end up in the dance-off irrespective of the public vote.

No more f**king swearing for Jamie
Jamie Oliver's swearing is to be cut out of his TV shows, following complaints from viewers. The celebrity chef 's production company says it will "respond to public concern" after he came under fire for excessive use of the f-word – in one show using the expletive a whopping 23 times! Zoe Collins, head of Oliver's Fresh One Productions, said, "I am concerned if the swearing in the programmes is affecting people's enjoyment of them. Going forward we will be much more mindful of that. I know that Jamie does not use that language to shock and get more viewers. The reality is that he does use fruity language to express strong emotions." Fruity! Hee hee, we haven't heard that word for years...

Two stars spend Christmas in rehab
It's the season to be jolly and all that, but for two stars Christmas this year means a spell in rehab. Both Tara Reid and Lady Isabella Hervey will be spending the festive period getting help in rehab, with the latter being treated for depression. Lady Isabella, who you may remember best from Celebrity Love Island, has checked into the Priory after friends became concerned about her "erratic behaviour". The 26-year-old socialite, who has admitted to suffering from bulimia in the past, is reported to be at the "end of her rope". A friend confirmed, "She [Isabella] is exhausted and emotional. She has been suffering from depression for a while now." Meanwhile, American Pie actress Tara Reid is heading to Promises Treatment Centre, but it is not known what she is being treated for specifically. An official spokesman said, "Tara Reid has checked herself into Promises Treatment Center. We appreciate your respect to her and her family's privacy at this time." We hope both ladies are feeling much better soon.
