Cricketers Kevin Pietersen and Ian Botham, designer Vivienne Westwood and actor Christopher Biggins: there’s a neat order to these names in that it roughly correlates to the (little) fame each enjoy. Let’s be honest, when you have to state what they do before the name it proves they’re a couple of vowels adrift of the [...]
Ozzy Osbourne may have snorted fire ants to impress poodle perm rockers Motley Crue, but in his defence at least he could say he wasn’t playing World of Warcraft. For those who are not acquainted with the geeky world of goblins and elves, World of Warcraft is an massive multiplayer online (mmog, to you mate) [...]
So Robert Lindsay is down to do the latest Morrisons’ ad. The man who once upon a time played would be working-class hero Wolfie Smith has been filming the latest ad in Aberdeenshire. Apparently the ad features all the usual stuff: hanging with the locals, going out on a boat and talking euphorically about Morrisons’ [...]
“I like English people, some of my best friends are English.” Thus speaks the best Paraguay-supporting tennis player to come out of Scotland since Robert the Bruce played hide and seek in caves. Wimbledon is here and Andy Murray is eulogising about ‘England love’ and the launch of his new range of Fred Perry tennis [...]
Right now at this very moment I am looking at a picture of a naked man wearing what looks like a piece of granny’s velvet curtain, plus tassles, covering his janglers. It is a tough job, and for the record, I would rather someone else had to do it.

Harry Potter actress Emma Watson has grown up and bagged a role as Burberry brand ambassador and I’m going to be positive about it.
In addition, to be honest, [...]
Poor Elle Macpherson. She’s desperately trying to sell, but its not happening. If it wasn’t for that fact she’s a multi-millionaire I’d almost feel sorry for her.
Elle, AKA “The Body” and currently the face of Revlon, has had to slash £2m from the sale price of her Notting Hill home. Looks like she is going [...]
In the manner of all those great physicists who named laws and propositions after themselves I am planning to do the same thing, but about celebrities - let’s call it Woad’s Theory of Celebrity (WTC). You see I had an apple falling from the tree moment when I saw an article about Alesha Dixon teaming [...]
It’s hard to think of a subject more divisive than whether it’s ok for an older man to have it away with a younger women. Face it, it’s a difficult fence to sit on.
So try this for size, lets take a bloke knocking on 50 going out with a girl 20 years younger?
There are generally [...]
What is it with Ultimo? It seems to have a magnetic pull. GMTV presenter Jenni Falconer has joined the long line of celebs taking their kit off for the lingerie firm. I say celebs, but as you know I’m really talking about Peaches Geldof (nuff said there), Mel B and errrm Melinda Messenger.
What are you [...]
