RAGE. The very best of the day’s celebrity dirt.

EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt – from the top to the very bottom.

#DOUGHNUT SPICE: Victoria Beckham is in New York at the moment for Fashion Week. And she was SO PLEASED when she got to try the connoissieur’s breakfast of the moment: CRONUTS.

But just as she finished snacking on the delicious doughnut-croissant hybrids, disaster struck. The creator of the cronut, chef and expert self-publicist Dominique Ansel, got in touch to slap her down.

Morto for Victoria. Morto.

#CUMBERSMACKDOWN: Benedict Cumberbatch hates the internet, the source of all his powers. Why? Because the tone of online conversation

is horrific. You can’t win. It’s like a new form of bullying. I find it quite despicable.

He also dislikes the Cumberbitches, his self-appointed fan club of ladies. Well, not them, but their name. ”Some of them have now called themselves the Cumbercollective; that’s a slightly less offensive noun,” he said.

Basically Benedict Cumberbatch is miffed. Is it because he found the Benedict Cumberbatch Name Generator? (Hollywood Reporter via ONTD)

#HER MADGE: Madonna maybe, possibly, perhaps, probably got engaged again. She appeared at a Kabbalah Centre in New York and introduced her 25-year-old fella Brahim Zaibat as her FIANCÉ. (In Touch)

Meanwhile, Zaibat has been chatting about Madonna. “She’s not a monster,” he pointed out helpfully. “She has two eyes, not seven.”

He then added: “She’s a machine. That says it all.”

So there we go. Madonna: not a monster, a machine. (ONTD)
