The 9 0'Clock News – Fri 10 Jul

Katie says Pete is to blame for split:
Katie Price has predictably blamed Peter Andre for the breakdown of their marriage. The mum of three has recorded an interview with Piers Morgan, in which she is said to break down in tears at times, as well as launching an astonishing attack on Peter Andre. It's fair to say that Kaie hasn't gained much public favour with her behaviour of late, while Pete has been the complete opposite. Reports suggested that Katie was going to accuse Peter of infidelity, but she doesn't – instead she lashes out at him for walking out of their three-year marriage. A TV source said, “Katie is fed-up with the public backlash against her. Unfortunately though, her version of events is rather different to Pete’s. To see her interview in full tune in to ITV1 at 9pm, Saturday.

Jacko doctor admits donating sperm

The controversy surrounding the true parentage of Michael Jackson's children continues to gather pace, as the doctor presumed by many to be the biological father admits he has donated sperm in the past. Dr Arnold Klein, who was Jacko's dermatologist for many years, says he does not know if he is the father or Prince Michael, 12 and Paris, 11 – but has agreed to do a DNA test in order to find out the truth. His comments came as photos of the doctor laughing and joking with the children's mum Debbie Rowe have emerged, fuelling speculation that the pair were having some sort of relationship. During an interview with CNN yesterday, Dr Klein said, "I think to the best of my knowledge I am not the father. I did donate sperm to a sperm bank. If they want a DNA test they can have my DNA." The clearly harassed-looking doctor then went on to say he thought the best people to care for the kids now would be their mum Debbie and their former nanny, saying at the end, "It’s really no one’s business."

America can't understand Cheryl Cole

Cheryl Cole might have been taken under Simon Cowell's wing and be heading for the big time, but she's hit a bit of a stumbling block...The Girls Aloud singer is hoping to take America by storm by fronting a US version of The X Factor, but she's already running into difficulties – the American audience can't understand her Geordie accent! Bosses are so worried about it that they will now screen tapes of her on The X Factor to focus groups to see how big the problem really is. NBC executives were at the auditions last week and are reported to have loved her down-to-earth manner, but simply couldn't work out what she was saying. A source said, "They were bowled over by Cheryl and thought she was sassy, smart, charismatic and beautiful. There was just one small problem – they couldn’t make head nor tail of her Geordie accent. She was at her best at the weekend – witty, empathetic and really encouraging to some of the acts. But while her accent isn’t that thick, the Americans really seemed to struggle with it." It's likely that if Cheryl is to go Stateside, then she will have to undergo elocution lessons!

Arlene Phillips get new BBC job

Arlene Phillips may have lost her job on Strictly Come Dancing, but she will still be connected to the show when it kicks off in the Autumn. Arlene has been given a slot on The One Show, where she will comment on the progress of the competition alongside host Adrian Chiles. Talking about the decision to axe Arlene from the main show, the BBC's Jay Hunt said, "It was not an easy decisoon to take. When I looked at the four people we had, Bruno is the joker, Craig is the Simon Cowell of the show and Len is head judge. Arlene has elements of all of them, but when you look at it, Arlene was the obvious one to change." The decision to replace Arlene with former Strictly winner Alesha Dixon has angered some, but Jay Hunt has defended the decision, saying Alesha will bring "glamour" and an "amateur touch" to the show.
