EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt from the top to the very bottom.
Mel B and Piers Morgan were not impressed with the Star Is Born stars’ performance
By now, you’ve seen the headlines, the winners and losers, and the best (and worst) dressed lists from last night’s Oscars, however, there is one moment that’s still getting a lot of attention.
From what was a fairly dull Academy Awards, there was one moment that stirred up some drama and that was the live performance from Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper of the hit song, Shallow.
Yes, the pair took to the stage to perform the song as it was nominated (and later won) the award for Best Original Song and it got a lot of people talking – especially the panel on Good Morning Britain’s Oscar Special.
“I felt so uncomfortable for Bradley’s girlfriend,” Mel B said on GMB.
“It was the look of love, wasn’t it?” Piers asked the singer.
“It really was, “ she said, “the whole gossip, that’s the whole thing.”
Piers went on to fan the flames of tabloid gossip, reminding the panel that Lady Gaga has just recently split from her fiancé and said the way she looked at Bradley “crossed a few lines”.
“I would like to think it was part of the whole performance, because there’s a woman’s code and hopefully that’s not… hopefully it’s only professional”.
Christ lads, let’s not read too much into a staged performance of a love song.
Khloe Kardashian is refusing to allow others benefit from her tragedy
Khloe Kardashian’s name has not been far from the headlines ever since news broke that Tristan Thompson reportedly cheated on her with close family friend, Jordyn Woods.
Yes, the Kardashian sister has been the talk of social media, with everyone weighing in on how she should be feeling and what she should do about it.
And while Khloe has remained fairly tight-lipped about what’s going on in her personal life, she’s not letting others benefit from the breakdown of her relationship.
On Friday, the producer and writer of the hit US reality show, The Bachelorette, teased that Khloe was in talks to star on the next series.
Mike Fleiss suggested he had been chatting with Kris Jenner about getting Khloe on board and told fans to “stay tuned”.
Well, it wasn’t long before Kim chimed in telling her near 60 million Twitter followers that this was “fake news” to which Fleiss replied that Kim was “out of the loop”.
The back and forth continued before Khloe responded to the TV producer telling him to back off or else she would take legal action.
Caroline Flack calls herself ‘Queen of the Cougars’ in open letter
The TV host has long been plagued with the label ‘cougar’ after finding herself in quite a few relationships with younger men.
But now, after years of tabloids depicting Caroline Flack as the ageing woman desperate for younger men, Caroline is taking ownership of the title.
“My current status is not just that I’m a cougar, I’m Queen Cougar, which I guess is something I’m supposed to be ashamed of,” she said in an open letter she wrote for You magazine.
“But I’m just not,” she added. “If ‘cougar’ is supposed to be some kind of insult, I’m taking control of that and turning it into a badge of honour.
“I’m Caroline Louise Flack and I’m Queen of the Cougars.”
