Apparently Leona has now lost a stone in weight after record bosses suggested she “shape-up” before the launch of her new album.

According to a source close to former X Factor winner, Leona managed to gain weight over the summer while she was recoding her album, which is called Echo, by feasting on large portions of junk food. A source said:

'In LA she used to binge on curry, macaroni cheese and her favourite Thai takeaway, all delivered to the studio. American portions are so big it's hard not to put on weight and Leona loves every kind of food that's bad for you.

'The label bosses weren't happy with her weight gain and told her to shape up for her album launch.'

Well we thought she looked perfectly fine beforehand, but that’s just our humble opinion…

During yesterdays event the mum of four admitted to feeling self-conscious and said:

“I'm definitely one of the heaviest of the bunch of the 30 girls in the show. And I still have 20 lbs. to go.”

Erm, 20lbs from where exactly? We think she looks great, don’t you agree?

A spokesman the Simple Life star confirmed the news and said that Nicole had been suffering from a respiratory infection for a few days before she eventually checked herself into the hospital. She’s now responding well to treatment and will hopefully be sent home soon.

So anyway, it’s been reported that Mariah Carey - who we spotted posing for pictures with fans in Paris last night – has gained a whopping 42lbs since she married Nick Cannon last year and now her pals are pressuring her to shape up. A source close to the singer revealed:

“Mariah’s weight has exploded. When Mariah and Nick married in April 2008 she weighed 135 pounds, but once she settled into married life and got comfortable she gave up the steamed veggies and broiled fish diet and the Pilates and water aquatic workouts.”

Pah! We don’t blame her, it sounds horrendous and we don’t even know what broiled fish is, but her pal didn’t stop there, she then said:

“Mariah has been gorging on mac‘n’cheese, fried chicken, caviar, surf & turf and flutes of champagne,” mmmm, sounds tasty!

Apparently Nick doesn’t care whether his wife is ‘thick or thin’ but even he’s started to get concerned with her increasing weight gain and he’s now urging her to cut back before she hits the 200lb mark.

“It sounds really corny, but I think that if you’re beautiful inside, it shows on the outside for sure.”

“You can be a pretty face, but if you’re not a nice person, it just doesn’t work. I’m not traditionally a beauty, but apparently people think I’m all right.”

Erm, is Kate Moss really trying to say she’s not all that, but she’s so nice on the inside that it radiates through? That’s what it sounds like to us.

But anyway, she then went onto explain that her motto in life is:

“Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.”

Before mentioning three separate times that she likes making jam.

Meanwhile Robert Pattinson has revealed that as soon as he found out he got the part of Edward Cullen in the Twilight saga, unsurprisingly, he immediately signed up to a local gym.

“When I got the part, I started training because I wanted to do my own stunts — and some of them were pretty extreme,” Rob said.

“I did a lot of running and I worked out four to five hours a day. I only slowed down when I started to lose weight, but I’ve got to say, I’m pretty proud to show my abs now, and I have no fat at all!”

No one likes a show-off Robert. No one…

Well, when we say “celebrities” we actually mean Annika Rice, Lady Victoria Harvey, Rolf Harris, Martin Clunes and John Altman (aka Nasty Nick). Do they count as celebs?

Anyway, in some completely unrelated news which will no doubt please most Peter Andre fans, apparently the singer has just signed a £500,000 deal as the face of Marks & Spencer's underwear range. Talking about the impending saucy underwear photoshoot recently, Pete said:

"It’s a bit of an on-running joke that I insist upon shoving a sock ‘down there’ for one photo of every underwear shoot. I figure if it’s OK for David Beckham to do, it’s alright for me too. And the results are great!"

Yes, but slightly misleading perhaps…

Mind you, if we had to eat Gwyneth Paltrow’s micro-biotic recipes night after night we’d be shedding pounds faster than you can Goop…

Wearing a fitted magenta dress, Kidman was evidently showing off her womanly assets ahead of beginning work on her latest film The Danish Girl in which she plays the world’s first transsexual.

There’s a thought for you! Anyway elsewhere at last night’s ceremony we also ran into Taylor Swift who managed to collect three gongs at the awards..

When we spotted the svelte supermodel grabbing some lunch with her helicopter pilot instructor pal (wow that’s a mouthful!) in Boston yesterday we almost didn’t even spot the bump.

In fact the only time she looked even the slightest bit pregnant is when she turned to the side and you so know she’s gunna pop right back into shape as soon as she’s had the baby! Damn, it’s really hard not to hate her isn’t it?!

Apparently, if reports are to be believed, she’ll be joining them a week later so for now she’s making the most of her final days of freedom.

After a brief chat on the Chelsea Lately show Katie and her bessie mate Gary Cockerill headed to a Botox clinic and judging by the look on her face as she left we think it’s fair to say the treatment was successful.

Speaking of which, staff at the venue in London where Rihanna will be performing next week have leaked a list of the star’s demands, and some of the items on the list you may just find exceptionally surprising.

Yes it seems as though Rihanna has got a bit of an addiction – to junk food. Here’s a snippet of some of the fatty treats on the singer’s rider: six pizzas, six portions of fried noodles in sauce, six microwave lasagnes, 10 portions of chips, 10 large packets of crisps and pots of dips, 15 doughnuts and 50 chicken drumsticks.

Someone’s not watching their calorie intake then! A source behind the scenes at Rihanna’s London album launch party said:

“When it comes to the big US stars, we’re used to getting ridiculously healthy requests. It’s almost a competition in how boring and calorie-free they can be.

“But Rihanna was a breath of fresh air. There was none of this carb and gluten-free nonsense, just a total fast-food fest.”

Is it wrong that we’re salivating right now? Anyway, unlike Rihanna we’d get fat as pig if we ate all that filth but fortunately though all those energetic dance routines seem to keep the Umbrella songstress nice and trim. She recently said:

“Being on tour gets you in shape which is good considering how I eat pretty much whatever I can get my hands on”

Yes, as we can tell…

A source close to the troubled singer revealed, “Amy loves her breasts. She can't stop touching them and showing them off to friends. She says she feels womanly again and wants to be more curvy like she used to be.”

Well that explains why she had her cleavage hanging out when we spotted her leaving the Hawley Arms in Camden looking a little bit worse for wear last night. Brrrrrr, isn’t she cold?!

But rumour has it that the next op Amy’s got in mind is bum implants, no seriously:

“She thinks by having another op and bum implants that she will achieve her dream pin-up look.”

Oh no, we dread to think how she’ll show them off!

Well can you guess which celebrity accidentally gave her fans a right eyeful last night??

Meanwhile, its been reported that when Katie and Peter reunited at their sick son’s bedside Katie begged her ex-hubby to arrange regular meetings with her for the sake of their children but he declined the offer and said he was only their for his ill stepson.

Jordan’s 8-year-old boy was admitted yesterday after falling ill at home and while it is still not clear whether or not Harvey has swine flu, doctors have told Katie they will have to keep him in for at least 48 hours to assess his condition.

Britney is currently in Oz to complete the final leg of her Circus tour and when she left the Perth Hyatt Hotel this morning and headed to a sound check for tomorrow nights show she was clearly feeling the cold.

Considering the likes of Jude Law, George Clooney and Johnny Depp have all been given the title in the past most people would see this as a real honour but Jackman doesn’t!

The Wolverine star – who we spotted fooling around with his family in a park in New York yesterday - has admitted he can’t wait to lose the title and pass it on to someone else, he said:

“The pressures off. I can be a slob again. I thought there were thousands of other guys that deserved it, but it's been a great year.”

Hmmm, now we can’t stop thinking which celebrity is going to get the title this year, any ideas?

As a result in recent weeks all eyes have been on Wayne Rooney’s missus waiting for her to pop, in fact it was only last week that a paper broke the news that she’d gone into labour, unfortunately for them, they were wrong.

But last night there was no mistaking Coleen and her clan arriving at a hospital in Liverpool at around 9.30pm. Security was tight but the family were seen making their way inside with overnight bags.

Oh, we wonder what she’ll have?! We’re guessing it’s going to be a boy, don’t ask why, we’ve just got a funny feeling. But anyway enough rambling, we’ll bring you more on this developing story as and when we have it.

It’s not as impressive as a Grammy award admittedly but hey, each to their own. Meanwhile Amy’s dad, Mitch, has hit back at critics who have accused his daughter of having an eating disorder.

Following their meal in Marylebone on Thursday the gabbie cabbie told the press:

“I went to lunch with her (Amy) yesterday and I've never seen one person eat as much as she did”

"It was this new fish restaurant she goes to on Marylebone High Street, it's all healthy stuff - but boy can she put it away.

"And they say she's anorexic? You can see with your own eyes that she's put on a lot of weight and how well she's doing."

Yes that certainly is true, she has put on a lot of weight lately. But that’s probably got something to do with that boob job she’d just had…

In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar magazine the former Spice Girl said:

'I didn’t want to rely on retouching,' she said. 'I wanted to look at those pictures in 20 years’ time and say, “Wow, look – after three kids – I didn’t look bad.”'

Well that’s debateable. Now honestly, who she’s trying to fool? She may look slim on and off camera, but we all know there’s a hell of a lot more airbrushing that goes on behind the scenes…

The unlucky in love singer had just returned from a trip to India where she’d been busy filming her new show, The Price Of Beauty, which follows Jess as she travels to seven different countries to examine their exotic beauty regimes.

Maybe she should have done the other hand as well; after all she needs all the luck she can get right?

The following day a clearly distressed Danielle took to her Twitter and wrote:

“Sorry I can't answer back as u know my bro was stabbed he is ok! But was sliced by his eye and his face am deeply upset by this vile attack”

A spokesperson for Danielle confirmed:

“Danielle is clearly shaken up by the attack on her brother. Thankfully Matthew is OK and his injuries are not as serious as first thought but Danielle is devastated this happened. It has brought back memories of her own attack earlier this year.”

Well a week has passed since then and Danielle was in high spirits when we caught up with her and her fella Jamie leaving Mr Chow’s last night and once she’d got home she took to her Twitter again to quickly write:

“Had a lovely day with J shopping, drinks at Mayfair, dinner at Mr Chow and now snuggled in bed in Portsmouth love my life X”

So all’s well that ends well eh!

But when we saw the latest snaps of the happy couple arriving at the Land Shark Stadium in Miami last night we felt compelled to show them to you, do you want to know why?

Actually, do we really need to point out why? Good god, we’ve seen marathon runners sweat less!

The renowned composer, whose works include Phantom of the Opera and Cats  - to name but a few - is suffering from the early stages of the disease.

However the prognosis for the 61-year-old is said to be good, and it’s expected that he’ll be able to get back to work completely by the end of the year.

Apparently Gisele – who seems to have developed the bump overnight – is expecting a baby girl, which is due to be born in December.

And it seems as though the supermodel and her husband Tom Brady already have everything prepared for the new arrival. A source in the US said:

"There’s going to be a room off the side of the nursery where the nanny will sleep. And they’re using a crib that’s been in Gisele’s family for four generations. Her grandmother slept in this crib, her mom slept in this crib, Gisele slept in this crib, and now Gisele’s daughter will sleep in this crib. It’s beautiful solid oak."

Well we can’t wait to see the first pictures of the new arrival!

The pop legend looked “gaunt” and “tired” according to fans, as he began the concert in front of a 1,000 strong crowd, then collapsed after singing a very strained version of his classic song This Charming Man.

Two band members then had to carry the 50-year-old off stage, after which he was then treated by paramedics for breathing difficulties and taken to a nearby hospital. He was said to be in a “stable” condition last night.

Not that she makes the kind of music to stage dive to anyway mind you.

During a recent interview the singer was asked about stage diving, to which she replied:

"Don't expect me to get involved. I've already got mild arthritis in my hands and my knees so it wouldn't be a good idea. It runs in my family. My bones break very easily.”

Speaking of which we caught up with Lily performing, with a cigarette in hand, in Paris last night – unsurprisingly there wasn’t a stage-dive in sight. Thankfully…

So here she is once again getting her kit off for the brand’s new range. Speaking about the collection, Peaches said:

"The underwear is young and fun. It has just the right amount of sexiness."

Yes, it’s just a shame you’re wearing it Peaches…
