Keisha: "It wasn't my choice to leave the Sugababes"
Axed Sugababe Keisha Buchanan last night took to her official Twitter page to tell her side of the story, and claims it was not her decision to leave the band. It had been assumed that Amelle Berrabah would be leaving the group after it was widely reported that she'd had a number of arguments with Keisha, but yesterday the decision was made to keep her in and replace Keisha instead. As heatworld exclusively revealed on Friday afternoon, Jade Ewen will indeed be joining the band, where it is said she feels she has a better chance of forging a successful career. Keisha has now been given a contract as a solo recording artist, and says she's excited about the new chapter in her life. "I've had a great time and have achieved more then I ever thought I would," she says. "Although it was not my choice to leave, it's time to enter a new chapter in my life. Now I'm going to take some time to focus on me. I've been in this band for 11 years and I have achieved so much. This is not the end... but the beginning!!!!"

Alesha Strictly row rumbles on
The backlash against new Strictly judge Alesha Dixon is showing no signs of slowing, with the BBC now admitting that they've received over 700 complaints about the issue. Both Arlene Phillips and Alesha's fellow judge Craig Revel-Horwood have spoken out in her defence, and Alesha herself is getting understandably angry about the whole thing. Speaking on Strictly spin-off show It Takes Two, Alesha said, "People forget that I had four months in solid training with a world champion – 10 hours a day. It's not like I have just been picked off the street to judge a dancing show. I do know what I'm talking about!" When you look at this whole scenario objectively, it is just a dancing show we're talking about, not world peace or something. heatworld thinks Alesha should just be left alone to get on with it.

Dannii Minogue admits Botox addiction
Dannii Minogue has admitted in a new interview that she became dependent on Botox after developing depression. The X Factor judge says she was depressed over her sister Kylie's cancer, and because one of her best friends died, saying, "I couldn't deal with the stress. I couldn't deal wit having to look at my face." Dannii says that at first using Botox was just "something fun", but that it soon became a "necessity" in her life. Luckily she has now put her dependency behind her, and credits falling in love with Aussie model Kris Smith as her cure. "I'm just enjoying being so wildly in love and being so happy," she says. Good for her!

The Hoff denies latest booze bender
David Hasselhoff was rushed to hospital with reported alcohol poisoning – but has since claimed that it was actually an ear infection. The America's Got Talent judge is said to have gone on a massive day-long bender after the final of the hit talent show, and his daughter was forced to take him into hospital. Last night his spokesman claimed the actor became unwell after mixing ear infection medicine with his anti-drinking treatment. Fellow AGT judge Piers Morgan has said in support, "He has got a problem. He will admit that and it is very sad for him. He is a really brave guy."
