Jackiey Budden wants Jack banned from seeing kids:
Furious Jackiey Budden is planning to take legal action in a bid to stop Jack Tweed from seeing Jade’s two young sons, Bobby and Freddie. The 51 year-old is worried that Jack will be a bad influence on the four and six year-olds following the newspaper revelations that he held wild sex parties at his Essex home. She is also trying to enlist the help of the boys’ father, Jade’s ex-boyfriend Jeff Brazier, and wants him to join her in launching a high court battle to ban him from having access.
Simon Cowell set to get a £5million pay rise
Simon Cowell is in the process of negotiating himself a rather nice £5.4million pay rise for judging American Idol. The 49 year-old currently nets £21.8million per year for sitting on the panel of the hit US talent show, but it’s thought that figure is set to rise to an incredible £27.2million. Fox chiefs are so desperate to keep the music mogul that they are offering him the amazing deal to ensure that he signs up to the show for at least another three years. The 49 year-old is already worth a cool £120million. Nice work if you can it.
Peter Andre: “I’m over Jordan”
Peter Andre has claimed that he is 100% over his estranged wife Jordan, and says that he has shed his last tear. In an explosive new interview he reveals that the pair only speak through lawyers, and he rules out ever getting back with Jordan. "If you had asked me a while ago if I’d go back there, I would have kept my head low and dodged the question,” he says. “But now I know I’ll never, ever go back. I am over it, so, so over it – 100%. I didn’t think I’d move on this quickly. I thought it would take years. But I’ve finally accepted our marriage is over. I’ve shed my last tear.” He also says nothing could shock him after seeing Jordan’s outrageous behaviour since they split in May. “Nothing about her can shock me any more. Nothing. When I walk down the street I expect someone to tell me something shocking about her or something new she’s said or done. Everyone around me is always shocked but I’m not."
X Factor and Strictly set for TV battle
The X Factor and Strictly Come Dancing will literally be going head to head this year - as Strictly axes the results show on a Sunday. Bosses have abandoned the old format, which saw the final results being screened on a Sunday evening. Instead the results will be on at the same time as The X Factor, which is sure to get ITV bosses panicking. A BBC spokesperson said; "We wanted to make Strictly Come Dancing an unmissable TV event so we are packing all the action into one dramatic show. Audiences will be watching, voting and seeing who is in and who is out on Saturday night. It works well and the excitement builds through the night so hopefully it will work in the ratings battle with The X Factor. We think the big night for entertainment is Saturdays and so Strictly will now dominate the schedule.” Hmmm, we wonder what Mr Cowell has to say? We don't imagine he'll be throwing in the towel just yet...let battle commence!
