Your ‘oh my god’ celebrity gossip....

977 replies

What has been your ‘oh my god’ moments in celebrity gossip?

Mine have been:

  • Jay-Z and Solange in the elevator
  • Detective Coleen Rooney making her case
  • Kanye West ‘imma let you finish’ with Taylor Swift

They all genuinely shocked me when reported, and for the love of twitter VardyGate was fantastic.

And before anyone gets in, yes I have got a life, I just enjoy celebrity gossip as a bit of freedom from the day to day. But well done on you for not caring and being better than me Wink

I would like to know why Peter Kay quit everything.

Literally no news on that at all.

*Oh, sorry. Have I got the wrong end of the stick?

I thought you meant that you didn't believe it!

Do you mean the way people just accept it as no big deal?*

I probably phrased it badly! But yes more that he's kind of seen as a national treasure despite it!

I remember there was a rumour that posh spice was "Becky with the good hair"...I never bought that idea tbh.

Christmastree43 · 05/11/2019 08:46

I've never read this online at all but I have a TV friend who says it's well known that Jamie Oliver swings both ways.

Also towards the Z-list end of the spectrum but about 18 months ago three female friends of mine were chatting to Greg Shepherd of Mummy Diaries fame at a bar in London and he invited them all his hotel room for some coke and other activities!!!

Arnold Schwarzenegger having a child with the housekeeper and it coming out 10 years later

The only one I've heard that hasn't been mentioned yet is a certain Australian pop star is actually HIV+ after a relationship with a well known druggie.

More info please.

CrapTVAddict · 05/11/2019 08:56

The Australian pop star wouldn't be a 'Neighbour' would she?

Anthea Turner and the twirl sponsored wedding

I agree, it's really weird. As if holding someone hostage and chaining them to your radiator is just one of those little things that any of us would do. And it's just no big deal. Yet other people have had their careers ruined by much lesser things.

@Horehound
Brittany Murphy dying

Her death was so suspicious. Apparently she and her boyfriend (who also died) were looking into exposing a Hollywood peadophilia ring.

Also have my suspicions about the whole Anna Nicole Smith money battle and how her son died so close to her dying too.

Paris Hilton racism (that one didn’t shock me though, to be honest)

Poor Fatty Arbuckle Sad

I remember there was a rumour that posh spice was "Becky with the good hair"...I never bought that idea tbh. I don’t believe that for a second 😂 I remember reading that apparently Beyonce is Solange’s mother. Never believed that either lol.

Justin Bieber being indoctrinated into a cult by his advisor/priest.

Gavin Rossdale cheating on Gwen Stefani with their nanny and their marriage ending.

Katie Price/Jordan insisting she got pregnant by Dwight Yorke and him denying it until a DNA test happened.

Christmastree43 · 05/11/2019 09:04

Also to make me look slightly more high brow, the Andrew Marr super injunction 😖 brain bleach required

flamingo40 · 05/11/2019 09:05

I'm far too invested in this thread!
Most of these are on my list.
The Rooney / Vardy is my favourite.
So brilliantly done by Colleen.

The beckhams tho... its definitely a staged marriage now for convenience and business.

One for the older MNers: dull mainstream BBC telly presenter Frank Bough being exposed as a cocaine crazed user of prostitutes for BDSM sex.

Crazy8 · 05/11/2019 09:09

What’s the Andrew Marr story?

Yes! Did I imagine it or did he hang out at the same sex dungeon as Jamie Theakston? Similar tastes at the very least.

Christmastree43 · 05/11/2019 09:15

@Crazy8 re Andrew Marr

He took out a super injunction around the time there was a hit of a scandal about their overuse, as he'd had an extramarital affair and fathered a child (he paid maintenance for thr child for some years but later took a DNA test and it turned out the child wasnt his).

See also these pics, may or may not be the same woman www.google.com/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2200493/amp/Andrew-Marr-caught-kissing-groping-mystery-woman-outside-Soho-nightclub.html

Also this is awful, his poor wife www.google.com/amp/s/www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/02/07/andrew-marr-having-stroke-changed-marriage-better/amp/

IfWishesWereFishes · 05/11/2019 09:15

And who do we reckon was DNA testing the jizz in Marc Almond's stomach? That one is just fucking stupid.

Carry on with the rest though Grin

Christmastree43 · 05/11/2019 09:16

*bit of a scandal

Ali1cedowntherabbithole · 05/11/2019 09:20

I love this thread but I'm afraid the contents of stomach wash outs are not routinely tested for DNAGrinGrinGrin

PrincessHoneysuckle · 05/11/2019 09:23

@Nailigg22 ye I got mixed up

HeyLala · 05/11/2019 09:38

What are the Brooklyn Beckham allegations?

PrincessHoneysuckle · 05/11/2019 09:38

George whatshisname on cbb pretending to be a cat with Rula lenska

@Collision The word in the comedy circuit was that Peter Kay had cancer. But then he later did a charity fundraiser for the Lily Foundation, which aims to improve the lives of children with mitochondrial disease, so this suggests this is what his DS has.

iSayaPrayer · 05/11/2019 09:44

Yes I would like to know what Brooklyn has done?

The Peter Kay thing makes me very sad and I wouldn’t like to speculate why he’s disappeared, I love him too much.
