Leona Lewis Last years X-factor winner, Leona Lewis went straight in at number one in the official UK singles chart with her 'Bleeding Love'. Bleeding Love became the fastest selling single in the UK for this year and easily left Take That's offering trailing well behind. Leona's single hit sales of over 218,000. Patsy Palmer The character of Bianca Jackson is to be resurrected by Patsy Palmer for the Eastenders UK soap. Bianca is set to move back into Albert Square some eight years after leaving. She will be seen next March and Patsy starts filming in January. Patsy said, "I'm really excited about rejoining the cast and working with old friends again". I can't wait to explore what Bianca has been doing with her life and seeing what she is going to get up to next." Porter Wagoner The country singer Porter Wagoner died yesterday in the Alive Hospice in Nashville. He was 80 and had been in hospital for several days with lung cancer. He was a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and won three Country Music Association Awards for songs with Dolly Parton. Bianca Gascoigne Model Bianca Gascoigne, step daughter of the ex England footballer, Paul Gascoigne, is 21 today. Joey Chestnut I guess it takes all sorts to gain celebrity status. Joey Chestnut did this by downing 103 hamburgers in eight minutes. This made the 23 year old a record holder and also a winner of $10,000. This all happened in Chattanooga and the bloke from Krystal Burgers said, "We never thought we'd see someone anywhere near, let alone past, the century mark when we started the Krystal Square Off in 2004," Rhydian Roberts The UK X-Factor contestant, the strange Rhydian Roberts, has been talking about the judges and is quoted as saying, "Imagine working with Sharon (Osbourne)? You just have to speak to the girls in her group. She never got in touch with them." (This was following the equally strange Sharon walking out of X Factor and, of course, returning). Rhydian went on to say, "Let's be honest, how much do these these judges give a sh**? I think Dannii (Minogue) does because it's a big gig for her and she wants it next year. But the others have money pouring out of their sweat." Guess this will have made him much more popular with the judges! Gabby Logan Tears for Gabby Logan as she was booted off Come Strictly Dancing. She was one of the favourites to win. This has had cries of 'Fix' and moans about the new voting system. Is it a popularity competition or one for dancing skills? Not sure if the BBC are really too sure either. I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here. News and gossip about the coming I'm A Celebrity.
