So are you glad he's gone? He was definitely irritating but aren't they getting rid of all the characters? Will Halfwit be up again next week? Or will the housemates think he's invincible and give him a week off? Discuss, well only if you want to of course.

Katherine Jenkins, N-Dubz, Faryl Smith, Peter Andre and err Chantelle Houghton all arrived ahead of the ceremony where Take That were honoured with a coveted Silver Clef Award to recognise their 18-year chart career.

Other awards included the Digital Award, which went to N-Dubz, the Newcomer Award, which went to a very happy La Roux and the Classical Award, which was taken home by Faryl Smith.

Despite the rainy conditions Cheryl, Holly and Louis were all smiles when they arrived at the live auditions a short while ago, but all eyes were on Dannii and her new blunt bob when she waved to fans and made her way inside.

Meanwhile, Cheryl looked her usual fab self in a cute blue skirt and her usual bouffant hair but we must admit her look is a bit X Factor 08, don’t you agree? Come Cheryl it’s time to spice things up!!

The former nurse has tried to keep a low profile following Jackson’s untimely death last week but as rumours claiming she’s not the biological mother of their children continue to intensify she decided the time has come to speak out.

Rowe allegedly told a local reporter, “They are my flesh and blood. I’m going after my children. I am stepping up, I have to”

However, her lawyer Eric George said:

“Though Debbie herself has not spoken publicly about the custody proceedings since Michael's death, I came to learn this morning that she shared some of her thoughts late last night with a local reporter.

“I have no reason to doubt that what was reported from that conversation was accurately and ethically reported. But that said, it would be a distortion of the truth to allow that single snapshot from a single conversation to stand in the truth of Debbie's position on these sensitive matters.

“So once again, the truth is that Debbie has not reached a final decision concerning the pending custody proceedings.”

A custody hearing set for Monday has now been postponed until July 13.

Oh my God, what does this meeeeeeeeeeean?! Sorry, we were just being dramatic for effect we’re not actually that bothered.

But seriously though, this couple has been on-again and off-again more times then Jodie Marsh’s g-string so nothing would surprise us. We’re just a little bit annoyed she’s not with Shia, after all she did say, “I love him to death and we sort of have like a natural banter…” which sounded so promising. They’d make a great couple no?

The Oxford graduate, who is facing the public vote yet again this week, has been struggling to cope ever since the nominations were revealed and it all came to a head when he asked Lisa why she didn’t like him.

“I don't think you like me!” Lisa snapped back. Freddie half heartedly agreed and said he didn’t like her “scheming and b*tching.”

“Get that out of your head, you're paranoid” Lisa replied. But things really got nasty when Freddie suggested Lisa had a problem with his background and the way he speaks.

“I'm not bothered where you come from. My brother is nearly a millionaire and he comes from nothing. Your view that I'm jealous because you're a millionaire - please don't insult me, I don't give a s**t where you come from” Lisa yelled. Kris then joined in and said Freddie was just ‘playing the victim’ and told Lisa not to talk to him.

Is Freddie playing the victim? Is the rest of the house bullying him? Will he get evicted tonight? Or will it be Sree? Are we asking too many questions?

Michael Parkinson, Ronnie Corbet, Sarah Ferguson, Anne Robinson, Bruce Forsyth and Andrew Lloyd-Webber were just a select few that turned out for the star-studded event, but don’t worry we wont bother showing you their pictures, you don’t want to see them do you?

Instead we’ve just picked a few of our favourites from last nights bash to give you a taster, including some pictures of Peaches ‘what on earth was she doing there’ Geldof, who was on hand to keep her dad Bob company.

Now we’re really struggling to keep track of Peaches tattoos so maybe you can help us, is the one on her back saying ‘Pixie’ with her little sisters date of birth underneath it new?

But who can blame them, the happy couple have got a lot to celebrate, not only has Cheryl turned the ripe old age of 26 this week but she’s also been told that Simon Cowell is on the brink of signing a deal to take the X Factor to the US and he wants Cheryl to be the star of the show!

Apparently the big bosses from NBC are flying to Manchester this weekend to watch Cheryl in action during the live auditions and if everything goes to plan she’ll end up hosting the new US version of the hit show.

Simon Cowell is already tied into a deal with American Idol on the Fox network that prevents him from hosting it himself and…

“He thinks she has amazing presence and her down-to-earth Northern charm will appeal to the American public. She is also an incredibly beautiful girl.

“She won’t get paid anything like the million pound salary she’s on here, because obviously she is not as well known in the States. But if it is a success, like most of Simon’s shows are, it could catapult her into the big league.”

Wow, that sounds very exciting for Cheryl but what does it mean for Girls Aloud? Remember them?
