Celebrity News Snippits
![]() The UK soap Coronation Street will no doubt attract more male viewers than usual tonight as Helen Flanagan, in her role of Rosie Webster, will be seen in her underwear / lingerie - as per the photo on the right. The scene is getting a lot of advanced publicity because of Helen's anticipated cleavage display. There is lots more stuff about her on the Helen Flanagan blog. Melanie Brown Spice Girl Mel B has put up a lot of her Spice Girl things, and other items, up for auction. All proceeds will go to the CLIC Sargent charity which provides all round care and support for children with cancer. Her website melbsale.com has more info but I found it very slow to load earlier today. Paul McCartney Despite all sorts of threats Paul McCartney survived his gig in Israel. It's now strange to think that back in the 60's the Beatles were considered to be a 'potentially corrupting effect' and were banned from performing in the country. Paul is quoted as saying, "The world knows about the conflicts that have been in that region and I like to think that if I go to a place it becomes evident that my message is a peaceful one and I hope that the idea will spread. People ask this question through the years: 'Do you think music can change things?' I think it can. I think it's good for people's souls. I think without music it would be a seriously bad world. I'm bringing a message of peace, and I think that's what the region needs." Britney Spears Her spokesperson has confirmed that Britney Spears will perform on this series of the UK's X Factor. The date has not been finalised as yet but Simon Cowell said, "We're absolutely thrilled to have her. I've always said this about Britney, that she's a hugely talented person. Everyone wants to work with her because she's a star. She's the number one booking in the world at the moment for a show." Amy Winehouse Her problems continue. Amy Winehouse is said to have admitted last night, at a VIP charity ball, that she is close to breakdown. Her performance was criticised and afterwards she allegedly tried to headbutt the official photographer. She then collapsed back stage. Surely someone in her circle can give her the help that she so obviously needs. Natasha Kaplinsky Newsreader Natasha Kaplinsky has given birth to a son. Husband Justin Bower is 'thrilled', television colleagues are 'delighted' and Spangles is doing fine. So a happy ending to finish on. Ad: Ice Poster: Over 250,000 images for photos and posters.
