4th April 2011 Round-Up

So what happened on this fine Monday? Glad you asked really, here's your round-up for today!


1. Wor Cheryl has been confirmed for US X Factor?


Apparently so. Confirmed judge L.A Reid (still no idea who he is) was quoted saying that he had no idea who the 4th judge was but he hoped they have a good connection with himself, Simon and Cheryl. Cat out the bag much? Let's ask this question though. Should Cheryl judge the American version of X Factor? I mean really. In my opinion, I don't think she should. First of all if she did, it would dampen my hopes of Girls Aloud getting back together at some point before 2012. Second of all, I'm not sure if the America population know who you are? And will they have the same reaction to you as we did, I highly doubt it. Just stick to the UK version Cheryl man. American readers! This question goes to you! Do you know who Cheryl Cole is? (don't use google)


2. The Vampire Diaries is back!





After another small break, one of my favourite TV Shows is back for it's final 6 episodes of the season and by the looks of things, their gonna be deadly! VD returns to UK screens on 12th April on ITV2! Exciting!


3. Kedollarsignha is touring the UK!


I love that skank but I hate her because she's not coming to where I live. Ke$ha has announced she will be touring the UK for the first time headlining. There's only a few dates which is quite shocking considering how big and well known she is. Confused. Anyway, here's the dates and where she's playing:

• June 23 & 24 -Glastonbury Festival
• July 3 - Birmingham Academy
• July 9 - T in the Park Festival
• July 11- Manchester Apollo
• July 13 - London HMV Hammersmith Apollo

If your lucky enough to live near those places or happen to be going to those festivals, I have a strong dislike towards you, unless you take me with you of course. Then I'll be your best friend forever :)

4. Adele is a record breaker!

She's really going places isn't she? And don't we all know it. Adele has broke yet another record with her massive album 21. On Sunday it charted again at the top spot becoming the first album in 25 years to hold onto Number 1 for 10 consecutive weeks. Her debut album also sits on number 2 and is the second best selling album of 2011 so far, after of course 21. Impressive isn't even the word to describe her success. 

5. Fancy some Glee news?

Well here's some amazing news. You might already know that a future episode (18 to be exact) will feature around Lady GaGa's smash song 'Born This Way'. Apparently the episode has so much stuff going on, it's been extended to 90 minutes! Brilliant. Executive producer Ian Brennan confirmed the extension after it was rumoured last week. He said that he is very excited because they have to cut down most episodes and throw away alot of good stuff, and now with this episode they get more screen time. I bet it's going to be amazing! 

2nd April 2011 Round-Up

So what happened today in the world of celebrity and TV and movies and music and stuff? Glad you asked because here's your daily round up ;)




1. Simon Cowell will appear on our X Factor?


Yeah, I'm sick of hearing about it too, but lets be honest, it's news worthy. There's been lots of talk over the past few months about who will be on the X Factor judging panel on both sides of the Atlantic. So it looks like Simon  WILL continue to judge our version as it was rumoured he wouldn't.

I AM GOD! 

Let's be real here for a second. The UK X Factor would not be the same without our beloved Simon! He's partly the reason we watch it because he's brutally honest with the terrible singers which we all love! Imagine watching the show without his witty comments or his dislike of twins and Louis Walsh! Imagine. How boring would it be? While this is all just hear say, I really don't think Simon will leave us for America. If he can do both shows that would be great. Just nap on the jet yeah?


2. Essex/Blue drama!


I know you have all been watching the new series of TOWIE! And you've been loving it right? So we have a few new characters and one of them being Chloe Sims who just recently revealed she has a child! After i picked my jaw up of the floor, today it was revealed by Simon Webb's (from Blue) girlfriend that she found him in bed with Chloe Sims! DRAMA ALERT! Obviously she decided to sell her story to a newspaper and said she found them her on top of him in their bed and she was devastated. Both Simon Webb and Chloe from Essex deny the accusations from the girl that SOLD HER STORY TO THE NEWSPAPERS EXPOSING HER FAMOUS BOYFRIEND AS A CHEAT JUST BEFORE HE'S ABOUT THE REPRESENT HIS COUNTRY AT EUROVISION. Yeah.


3. Here! The Hangover Part II has a new trailer!


Let's have a deeks:





Amazing. Comes out 27th May 2011 which is actually quite soon so yay! Hands up if your excited?


4. Nicole Scherzinger has gone back to the studio.


Wait! Didn't you just release your debut album? Why are you going back in the studio to record new material when you have an album full of amazing song waiting to be released so I can dance to in the clubs? CLUB BANGER NATION? WET? SAY YES? KILLER LOVER? Anyone of those would do nicely while I'm out in Mushroom having a jug of Skittles with one straw! Just sayin'. If you haven't listened to her album yet, I highly recommend it! It's brilliant! 


And that's it for today! In a bit!

American X Factor - Cheryl Cole Confirmed As A Judge?

Cheryl Cole has reportedly landed a £3 million 1 year contract to the American version of The X Factor!

American X Factor - Teaser Trailer Released

Stay tuned for an announcement from Simon Cowell with all the deets on the US Version of the show.

It's a Done Deal

ITV have now signed a 3 year deal for The X Factor and Britain's Got Talent. Also they have secured the rights to show The American version of The X Factor exclusively on ITV2 alongside America's Got Talent.









There was lots of speculation about what will happen to The X Factor after Simon Cowell announced plans to take it to America and BGT after Piers Morgan announced he was leaving BGT but now we have nothing to worry about.


Simon Cowell will remain on our screens till at least 2013. Britain's Got Talent will return in the Spring of 2011. The X Factor will return later than normal in the Autumn of 2011. Spinoff shows, Britain's Got More Talent and The Xtra Factor will also return to ITV2. US X Factor will also be shown on ITV2 as will America's Got Talent. 


Cowell said: 


"I am thrilled this deal has been concluded with ITV to enable our relationship to continue to develop. I am committed to making sure both shows get bigger and better every year. I have a lot to thank ITV for; they have been key in making The X Factor and Britain's Got Talent the UK's biggest television shows."


In 2009 both finals of the two shows reached over 19 millions viewers so I bet ITV are buzzing they've secured it for another 3 years, and I am too! 

Cowell to sign new deal with ITV?

Apparently ITV is getting close to announcing a new deal with Simon Cowell.

The deal would mean both The X Factor and Britain's Got Talent will stay with ITV till 2013. ITV's Director of Television says:


"I had been hoping to be in a position to say we had done long term deals for The X Factor and Britain's Got Talent. There has been a lot of talk and speculation but I don't think I am being too confident to say we are almost there."


The filming of both shows has come into doubt recently, with Cowell talking The X Factor to America in September 2011.

The X Factor - Bye Bye Cheryl?

It's been reported that Cheryl Cole has finalized a multimillion pound deal to join the US X Factor! 

It's been rumored for months that's she packing up and moving to America to further her career over there but is it true. According to this it is. I think it's a shame really. Cheryl got a bad reputation in the early days of Girls Aloud but she turned things around and when she joined The X Factor (which is on tonight btw) she became the 'nations sweetheart' and everybody loves her. So why move away from the people that love you, to the people that don't know you?


Is it because of rumored lover Derek Hough? Is it because of new X Factor? Or is it to get away from the soon to be ex-husband Ashley Cole? Either way I don't want to see you go. Do you? Let us know. 

Piers Morgan ready to quit Britain's Got Talent?

Piers Morgan has signed a new £2.6 million deal with ITV. 

The deal includes 12 episodes of Piers Morgan's Life Stories, in which he interviews celebrities and asks deep personal questions. It also includes 6 other shows similar to Piers Morgan On... It does not include Britain's Got Talent however. Piers recently signed a deal with US News channel CNN to take over from Larry King which begins in January. With this all going on, Piers will be unable to take part in the next series of BGT.

So, this news asks the question. What's happening with BGT? Since Simon Cowell announced weeks ago he was stepping down as a judge during the audition process because of the US X Factor and Amanda Holden is talking part in Shrek: The Musical (feel free to laugh, I did) and now Piers, what's going to happen? Will ITV cancel the show? Will they get new judges instead? There's already been rumors of Paul O'Grady and Peter Kay being in the pipeline. 

So what do you think will happen to BGT? What do you want to happen to it? Let us know your thoughts! 

The X Factor - No More?

WHAT?! :(

We thought this day would NEVER come! But apparently... Because next year Simon Cowell is taking The X Factor over to the states, that means The X Factor will stop in the UK. I know! This totally sucks, we love The X Factor, it starts in August and finishes at Christmas! Like the way it has been since it started!
So why deprive us of it!?

AND to top it off! He's making sure he takes wore Chezza over with him!... And if she does people don't think she'll come back!

 How much does this suck? Alot!

Although we're all curious to watch the American X Factor, we still don't want to get rid of ours!

Thoughts?
