EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt from the top to the very bottom.
Yesterday evening, Will Young dramatically announced that he was leaving Strictly Come Dancing. In a statement, the singer wrote that being part of the show was “long time ambition” of his, but stated that he was leaving due to “personal reasons”.
I leave with joy in my heart that I have been able to take part in one of the most loved shows on British television.
I wish my compatriots so much luck, and although I am back to being a viewer again, I’m certainly going to ‘keeeep dancing’!”.
The abrupt departure came as a shock to many particularly as Young was widely seen as a contender for the title. (He scored a very respectable 31 on Saturday’s show.)
A BBC source told 3AM that they were perplexed by the whole thing.
Will has created the biggest mystery possible by quitting out of the blue in such an upbeat fashion. Now everybody will be desperate to know what’s caused this sudden change of heart. Why leave when it was all going so well? The mind boggles.
This morning, Will Young texted into Chris Evans’ breakfast show and assured him that was the exit was “undramatic” and that he was “absolutely dandy”.
Right so.
Brian McFadden says that Gillian McKeith taught him how to shite. McFadden told Ryan Tubridy that the You Are What You Eat host taught him how to poo properly while filming his new ITV show Who’s Doing The Dishes?
All her food was raw and a bit weird and she did loads of weird things to me throughout the day, like she showed me how to take a poo properly.
Apparently we’re all doing it wrong, there’s a certain way you’re supposed to do it – with your legs in the air. She sat me on a stool and then she got on all fours and turned herself into a human stool and I had to put my feet up on her back.
Imagine if Gillian McKeith did this at every dinner party. “Ugh, Gillian. Can we just have some wine? You taught me how to poo the last time.” (DublinLive)
And finally, Khloe Kardashian has told Ellen that Kim isn’t doing too well after her ordeal in Paris last week. Khloe told Ellen:
I mean, she’s not doing that well. I mean, it’s incredibly traumatic what happened to her, but our family is super close and great and we’ll get through it together, and we do appreciate all of your guys’ love and support and it will take time.
She said the incident was a “wake up call for the family” and that it was prompting them to make “life adjustments”.
Elsewhere, Radar Online posted a video yesterday, which they alleged showed Kim Kardashian moments after the robbery looking calm and collected. They claimed that the video called into question Kim’s version of events.
They later clarified on Twitter that it was shot hours after the event took place.
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
Yesterday it was revealed that Kim Kardashian is suing website MediaTakeOut over their claims that she staged the robbery.
