Tom Daley is to star once again in ITV’s Splash!
And his revealed what his look is, which thankfully isn’t much, and doesn’t have a rainbow theme!
He’ll be joined by hosts Vernon Kaye and Gabby Logan – and this year’s judges are: Andy Banks, Jo Brand and Leon Taylor
Her debut single Skyscapers is now available to buy on iTunes and Amazon.
Skycrapers was originally released by Demi Lovato.
A new set of celebs are due to move into the Big Brother House on the 3rd January 2014, during a two launch show on Channel 5, hosted by Rylan Clark and Emma Willis
Judging by the publicity photos, it looks as though CBB has gone a bit masquerade, giving it a regal makeover, which we love.
So, will the new series be fit for a queen? Will there be any royalty, minor or otherwise in the new series?
It’s still unclear, as momentum grows, if James Arthur will or will not appear on the show. It seems thousands of people are still not happy with the singers behaviour over the last few weeks where he made a rap video calling a fellow rapper a ‘f**king queer’.
James apologised for the rap saying, ‘Some of the things said in this rap can be mistaken for homophobic slurs and I assure you homophobia is something I do not believe in’.
However some people have spoken up about there being no mistake in the language choice used.
‘The context was “you’re a f***ing queer” and went on to say “‘you probably want to stick your dick in me” – if that doesn’t insinuate homosexuality then what does? There’s no mistaking!’, messaged one reader on GayStarNews.
With the performance set for World AIDS Day, some have questioned if this is appropriate as more people seem less impressed with Arthur’s apology. The big question still being asked is, will James perform or not?
It’s not an exact science, but by using the number of Twitter fans each contestant had as a barometer (science word) of potential success we managed to get quite an actuate picture of who was going to win.
So going via the same formula we predict that this is how the X Factor Finals 2013 might look:
1st Sam Callahan 175,185
2nd Nicholas McDonald 138, 629
3rd Kingsland Road 119,352
4th Tamera Foster 114,081
5th Luke Friend 113, 314
6th Rough Copy 107,509
7th Sam Bailey 89,811
8th Abi Alton 66,422
9th Hannah Barrett 58,239
10th Miss Dynamix 37,001
11th Shelley Smith 30,023
12th Lorna Simpson 9,592
Now as we said earlier we’re not scientists, and this barely constitutes as news, but if we were Hannah or Abi, we’d be shaping up our act – or at least faking some Twitter numbers!
Ok sarcasm aside about the fair bit, we’re quite taken with this year’s logo, which takes the shape of a rather beautiful butterfly.
So where’s the idea from? Well the lovely peeps at Eurovision.TV have said:
‘Eurovision Song Contest is a shared project. It unites millions of people. In the east, west, north and south. Beyond all the glitter, there is a thought. A big idea that is 100% relevant for Public Service. It’s about togetherness, diversity and happiness. Eurovision Song Contest might appear as a trivial matter. But a trivial matter that engages over one hundred million people of all ages in more than 40 countries all over the world. And today science knows that sometimes small matters can start powerful and big movements. This phenomenon is called ”The Butterfly Effect”. A flap from one butterfly can – at least in theory – start a hurricane. Butterflies have one common name, but exist in thousands of different shapes and colours. Just like the Eurovision Song Contest, one strong identity with a rich national diversitiesy [sic]. Working together, we can achieve anything – We are one.
Ah, isn’t it beautiful!!
So Eurovision is just over a month away, what will you be doing for it?
