Orange Celebrity Blog Round-Up 14 January 2010

Thursday, May 13th, 2010

It’s been a few days of tattoos and surprising party guests, and no mistake. First, David Beckham showed off his new body art following a game between his current team AC Milan and arch-rivals Juventus. The tat in question? A not-especially-cheery image of a blood-stained Jesus, apparently based on a painting called The Man of Sorrows. It’s a tribute to Becks’ late granddad though, so we’d best not be too snarky.

Still on interesting skin-based ink, news emerged that truly talentless twins John and Edward Grimes aka Jedward are hooking up with none other than Vanilla Ice for their debut single (a version of ‘Ice Ice Baby’, natch). Lest we forget, Vanilla has the phrase “wide open” tattooed across his fingers – no, we’ve no idea why either…

And the party surprise? None other than Cheryl Cole, who rocked up looking all fabulous like (with hubby Ashley) to Take That supremo Gary Barlow and wife Dawn’s 10th wedding anniversary bash at a London hotel. In fact, Chezza’s Girls Aloud bandmate Kimberley Walsh was there too, along with several other of Gary’s Comic Relief Kilimanjaro climb chums.  Ain’t no mountain high enough, even when it’s freezing out, apparently!

Speaking of Mrs Cole, we actually felt sorry for her when she was spotted out with her hair in such a mess.  Celebrity crises don’t usually upset us, but in this case we’d like to send out our sympathies to Miss Cole on occasion of this minor tragedy.  Ashley seemed to be amused by the whole incident, as if it wasn’t as significant as his wife made out – shame on you Ashley.

Cheryl Cole’s hair normally looks full of body with not a strand out of place.  She even has body guards looking out for her hair, as seen by the photos taken when she left Gary Barlow’s wedding anniversary party.  Well she is the face of L’oreal, so needs to make her hair looks prefer – because she’s worth it.  But then, aren’t we all?

K West Hotel & Spa

Cool and chic, K West Hotel & Spa is the London hotel of choice for those in the music biz from Franz Ferdinand and Moby to Kelly Osbourne and Pete Doherty. The Shepherd’s Bush hotel is less than five minutes away from the designer heaven that is Westfield London. Inside, the treats continue with DJs playing the K Lounge on Friday and Saturday nights, the K Spa, and contemporary cuisine in the Kanteen restaurant. Eco-friendly features also make it one of London’s top green hotels, as well as one of its top celebrity hotels.

Blakes Hotel

Blakes Hotel describes itself as “the London base for film stars, musicians and all the top designers” and promises to respect the privacy of guests from the paparazzi. But a little public star-spotting is surely allowed! Small but perfectly formed, this London boutique hotel has welcomed everyone from David and Victoria Beckham to Lindsey Lohan and Quentin Tarantino. Created by acclaimed designer Anoushka Hempel, Blakes Hotel has become known as London’s ‘Couture’ hotel, a name well served by its popular, decorative Chinese Room.

Located on Park Lane in Mayfair, it’s a short walk (or chauffeur-driven drive) from exclusive London shopping spots such as New Bond Street, Old Bond Street and Knightsbridge. Out of your budget? Instead of booking a room, why not enjoy one of The Dorchester’s other famous attractions Afternoon Tea!

The Athenaeum

Dating back to the 19th century, the building that houses The Athenaeum has a rich history. Originally an entertainment spot for MPs and Lords, it went on to become a popular hotel with 70s screen stars filming at London’s famous Pinewood and Ealing Studios.

Is Lindsay Lohan on Her Way to Ugly Betty?

Thursday, March 18th, 2010

Big-named guest stars seem to line up to be on the set of the highly-watched Ugly Betty, which stars America Ferrera and Vanessa Williams. First, there was Posh Spice Victoria Beckham, the former pop star and current wife of football hottie, David Beckham, who brought along her kids Brooklyn , Romeo and Cruz to the shoot. Her stint has barely ended when rumors of Lindsay Lohan appearing on Ugly Betty proliferated all over the media.

Details to come later, as we need to cover the spoilers for tonight’s episode, “A Nice Day for a Posh Wedding.”

Wilhelmina Slater is to face the altar with Meade Publication’s founder himself, Bradford Meade, when her own maid of honor, Victoria Beckham, seems to be stealing the limelight. Of course, being the Slater that she is, Wilhelmina won’t let this incident pass by just like that, and she is ready to show Victoria who the real star of the wedding is.

Meanwhile, Betty is being eaten up by guilty after she had a secret arrangement with Wilhelmina, who told her to keep it from Daniel. Betty also knows about Wilhelmina’s clandestine liaison with her bodyguard, who is played by Vanessa William’s real life ex-husband, Rick Fox. Back at the Suarez residence, Betty’s father is looking forward to getting his U.S. citizenship, but is saddened at Betty’s decision of moving in with her new boyfriend, Henry.

Catch the latest episode of Ugly Betty’s season 2 tonight on ABC. As for Lindsay’s Ugly Betty stint, TV Squad reported that unnamed sources on the set of the show have been talking about Lohan’s representatives, who seem to be in negotiation with the producers. They said that the young actress might be having a three-episode arc in the series, portraying her as an assistant manager of the fast food joint where Betty’s father works. Lohan’s character will be an ex-high school beauty queen who is forced into a job after encountering hard times. Betty feels for the plight of the young girl and offers her a job at Mode. This much has circulated, but as for Lohan’s final say on this matter, fans will have to sit and wait.
