<p>Last night's Made In Chelsea was full of drama and bitching, woohoo! Here's a quick run down to get you up to speed (SPOILER ALERT).</p>

<p>Jamie yelled at Spencer and Louise and even had a bit of a cry. Louise can't fake cry in the slightest. Spencer didn't cry. Spencer is a robot with a heart of stone.</p>

<p>Everyone went to a spa to 'be there for Louise' (why, exactly?) Everyone had fights and there was lots of bitching. Cheska was there, no one really knows why. Rosie and Victoria made trouble. Millie made everything about her and then left in a sulk. She's very dull when she has no boy in the show.</p>

<p>Then Louise came back, talked to Jamie without apologising and then ran off into Spencer's arms. For goodness sake, lady! Are you mad?! He is going to drop you the very second Caggie gets back to Chelsea. That boy has never settled down for more than ten minutes.</p>

<p>Is Caggie coming back any time soon? She's about the only thing that can rescue this storyline. Otherwise the producers are going to have to do their best to convince us that Hugo and Spencer are both all loved up. No one is really going to believe that, are they?</p>

<p>So what's in store for next week? More bitching, more boring Natalie (and a little more from her sister who had a little thing with Spencer). It also looks like butter wouldn't melt Kimberly might get herself in a little bit of a pickle once her ex-boyfriend arrives on the arm of meddling Cheska.</p>

<p>We're hoping for a little more Mark Francis as well. He makes the show much more fun.</p>]]>

To celebrate the impending arrival of the new star-studded ensemble film all about the trials and tribulations of pregnancy, <strong><em>What To Expect When You're Expecting</em></strong> (in Cinemas <strong>May 25</strong>, 12a), we've been looking back at some pics of our absolute favourite celebrity mums. </p>

Star of the film <strong>Jennifer Lopez</strong> leads our parade of hot mommas with her incredible return to form following the birth of her adorable twins Max and Emme, and our gallery also celebrates top A list mums like <strong>Beyonce, Natalie Portman</strong> and <strong>Kate Hudson</strong>. From accepting Oscars with a baby bump to getting wed in designer maternity gowns, here are some of our fave celeb mums and some of their top red carpet moments. </p>

<p>You know that feeling when you're watching a film and you recognise the actor but you're not sure where from? Then it hits you: They used to be in NEIGHBOURS! Or worse, HOME AND AWAY! It's always a bit of a shock when a once loved soap character turns up in a Hollywood blockbuster. It's even more of a shock that some of them have made it big.</p>]]>

<p>The country has gone nuts for dancing dog Pudsey and his owner and Britain's Got Talent winner Ashleigh. But before we all go canine crazy, let's have a look at some other famous pooches that we're pretty fond of.</p>

<p><strong>Lassie</strong></p>

<p>What's that, Lassie? There's someone from the village stuck down a well?! And you're just managing to communicate this with your bit eyes and furry face? Amazing dog skills.</p>

<p><strong>Uggie</strong></p>

<p>Uggie from The Artist might just be the cutest dog in Hollywood. The scruffy little thing makes the film - and we were already a bit in love with this movie anyway.</p>

<p><strong>Bonnie</strong></p>

<p>Oh, Bonnie. Blue Peter just wouldn't have been the same without you. Even though you were replaced a lot, we remember you the most.</p>

<p><strong>Eddie</strong></p>

<p>OK so Eddie didn't quite make Hollywood, but he did make hit comedy Frasier a lot more watchable. We never really got half the jokes.</p>

<p><strong>Hooch</strong></p>

<p>Don't think we've forgotten Hooch from Turner and Hooch. Oh, we loved him so much. And then he went and died and we didn't know that was going to happen and we cried all the way home from the cinema. Damn you, Hanks.</p>

<p><strong>Shadow</strong></p>

<p>The Incredible Journey had one very incredible dog in it. Sometimes the old movies are the best, and this is one of Disney's finest.</p>

<p><strong>Marley</strong></p>

<p>We didn't really get the hype about Marley & Me when we sat down to watch it. Not very much happens in this film. But come the end, we are SOBBING every single time.</p>

<p><strong>The Tramp</strong></p>

<p>So what if Lady and the Tramp was a cartoon, we still love him best of all.</p>]]>

<p>Is Lady Gaga engaged? <a href="http://www.terrysdiary.com/post/22950259281/gaga-showing-off-her-new-engagement-ring">Photographer Terry Richardson</a> posted an image onto Twitter and his Tumblr that certainly suggests she might be. With the caption "Gaga showing off her new engagement ring!" he's got everyone questioning Gaga's relationship status with Taylor Kinney.</p>

<p>A spokeperson for Gaga wouldn't comment on the photo, adding more speculation to the singer's Bad Romance, which some say ended earlier this month. Some say that she's too busy for a relationship, others say that Kinney didn't 'completely get Gaga'. Well, she's not exactly an open book, is she?</p>

<p>So which is it? Is she just playing about, or is there more to this photograph than Lady Gaga's people are saying?</p>]]>

<p>Courtney Love has offered to step in and help the troubled actress Lindsay Lohan. Yep. The singer who has been arrested more times than we can remember, and who's own daughter Frances Bean Cobain took a restraining order out on her, thinks she's the right person to help Lohan.</p>

<p>Love has revealed that she uses 'chanting' to help keep herself on the straight and narrow. "I chant. You can tell when I'm not doing it, I get in trouble and when I am doing it, I don't get in trouble. It's really, really good for me."</p>

<p>Riiiiiiight.</p>

<p>Apparently Courtney has invited Lindsay over for a cuppa and a bit of a chant. They don't speak all that much, but they do have a mutual friend (our bet is this mutual friend is as bonkers as the pair of them).</p>

<p>We don't think this is going to help Lindsay all that much, but if Courtney Love invited us over for a chanting session we'd be round there like a shot just for the experience. How much do you want to be a fly on the wall during that Sunday afternoon?</p>]]>

<p>X Factor winner Alexandra Burke is single again after a friend let slip that she's dumped footballer Jermain Defoe. A friend of Burke's told <em>The Sun</em> that she's 'heartbroken but has ended it' and 'decided to move on with her life'.</p>

<p>Hardly surprising, since this is apparently the second time Defoe has cheated on her. First it was reported that he was sleeping with 23-year-old model Laura Brown, and now a nurse by the name of Kirsty Crummey has announced that she slept with the Spurs striker six weeks ago. The pair had apparently been seeing each other a year ago, and Defoe wanted to start things up again.</p>

<p>"I wasn't going to turn him down - I've never had a footballer like him show interest in me before. It was flattering but I know now he was just using me..He has hurt me so much. I just hope other girls reading this see him for what he is and don't fall into the same trap I did - and Alexandra Burke now knows what he's like. That's the only reason I've decided to speak out."</p>

<p>Ouch. We're not sure this is the best way to 'speak out', Kirsty. Sour grapes much?</p>]]>

<p>Pudsey, Britain's Cutest dancing dog has not been named the most talented after 16-year-old Ashleigh and her pup won the final of Britain's Got Talent on Saturday night. Simon Cowell joked 'my life's work is complete'.</p>

<p>Fellow judge David Walliams also added that 'the nation has fallen in love with you and Pudsey'.</p>

<p>The dancing duo are the first dancing dog act to win, but they weren't favourites - bookies' favourites were actually Jonathan and Charlotte and they came in second. Now Simon Cowell has said that he'd like to take Ashleigh and Pudsey to Hollywood, and even Ashleigh has said that she can see Pudsey being 'the next Lassie'.</p>

<p>''I'm more excited about Pudsey than most of the singing acts I've found. That little dog is going to become the most famous dog in the world. I genuinely believe he will be warmly received by Hollywood." Simon told <em>The Sun</em>.</p>

<p>Here's a clip of their very first audition:</p>

<p>Can Pudsey be the next Uggie from The Artist? That's not totally im-paws-ible, is it?</p>]]>

<p>We all have underwear issues from time to time and it's reassuring to know that singer Adele was wearing Spanx during her performance at the Grammys. Actually, she started off wearing four pairs. She took a couple of pairs of to sing.</p>

<p>Woah. Four pairs, Adele? FOUR? It's a wonder you could walk, let alone get through an acceptance speech or seven.</p>

<p>In a revealing interview with Matt Lauer on the Today Show, she talks of her underwear and how she went for a stroll through London's Trafalgar Square in the pyjamas. Oh, Adele, you're so crazy.</p>

<p>"The other day I walked through Trafalgar Square, tourist haven. I was a bit worried... I was in my pyjamas. I was in colour too, I'm always in black."</p>

<p>It's not just underwear and awards, though. Adele ended the interview on a really lovely note: "I just want to make music, I don't want people to talk about me. All I've ever wanted to do was sing."</p>

<p>Now, we're not against a drink or two, but we're impressed with Holly Willoughby's ability to knock it back! It all started out as a bit of a joke on Alan Carr's Chatty Man (when did this become the funny chat show everyone was talking about? Move over Graham Norton). Holly and Phil appeared on the show and she mentioned that she didn't get a hangover after drinking agave tequila at Keith Lemon's birthday.</p>

<p>"I don't know how it works but we were drinking this, and I was taking a risk because it was a school night, but I drank from 1.30 until 9.30pm and I wasn't hungover the next day.</p>

<p>"The most important thing is it has to be 100% de agave which translates that you don't get hungover."</p>

<p><a href="http://www.startrip.tv/hollytwitter.jpg"><img alt="hollytwitter.jpg" src="http://www.startrip.tv/assets_c/2012/05/hollytwitter-thumb-480x360-157498.jpg" width="480" height="360" class="mt-image-center" style="text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;" /></a></p>

<p>So they drank, and drank and drank until the bottle was empty. Phillip then posted the photo of a passed out Holly on Twitter as part of their little tequila experiment. Holly then admitted the photograph was staged and she apparently woke up hangover free and her usual radiant self - even with her early morning start.</p>

<p>That's some very special tequila.</p>]]>

<p>It's been an eventful series of Britain's Got Talent - there's been spats with the BBC over schedule clashes with The Voice, Simon Cowell's biography <em>Sweet Revenge</em> caused a few feathers to be ruffled, and <a href="http://www.startrip.tv/2012/05/loveable-rogues-were-handpicked-for-britains-got-talent.html">finalists Loveable Rogues</a> caused a stir after admitted they were approached by the show's producers in the run up to the auditions.</p>

<p>The final on Saturday is going to be huge, other finalists include dancing dogs Ashleigh and Pudsey and singer Molly Rainfield. Simon even threw another spanner in the works and the judges also picked their favourite out of the acts who didn't make the public vote so there's a wildcard in the mix as well. </p>

<p>They're all fighting for the prize of £500,000 and a slot at the Royal Variety Performance (and then the chance to be first choice for reality TV shows for at least the next six months).</p>

<p>So who <em>is</em> going to win?</p>

<p><strong>Britain's Got Talent</strong> finalists <strong>Loveable Rogues</strong> have admitted that they were 'handpicked' by the show's producers, calling into question whether or not the show has been fixed before the final has even happened.</p>

<p>Apparently BGT bosses had seen their video on YouTube and asked them to audition for the show. While the show's producers insist that the judges had no idea how they'd entered the audition process, the three-piece are in Saturday's final.</p>

<p>So is it a fix? The band won their place in the final on the public vote, the first time they auditioned would have been the first time the judges had heard them sing live. The band sang their own song and despite them being approached, they got through on their own merit, didn't they?</p>

<p>A spokesperson for the show said "To ensure we leave no stone unturned in our search for the best talent, we let people know about auditions in lots of ways - from ads in local papers to fliers distributed at festivals.</p>

<p>"As part of this normal process, we may inform some acts about the auditions. These acts still have to apply and go through the same process as every other act."</p>

<p>That sounds perfectly reasonable to us, although if Loveable Rogues do win on Saturday this little media storm is going to get brought up time and time again.</p>]]>

<p>Kelly Brook has admitted to watching Tulisa's sex tape more than once to glean sex tips for her latest role in Keith Lemon: The Film.</p>

<p>Speaking on Loose Women yesterday, the gorgeous actress explained that she'd watched the tape 'a few times' as research for a scene where she gets sexy with some asparagus.</p>

<p>Brook isn't the only celebrity to have watched the tape. Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden admitted that she'd seen it - and that it was fellow judge Alesha Dixon who sent it to her. Tulisa performed on the show at the weekend, that would have been a very uncomfortable green room indeed.</p>

<p>Come on, ladies! Give Tulisa a break. Especially given that we've seen more than enough of you and your lady parts over the years, Kelly.</p>]]>

<p>It's the rumour that just want die. Everyone is so keen for Saturdays singing Mollie King to be dating Prince Harry, and she's just as keen to quash the rumours. Since they were seen partying in the same karaoke bar, they've been linked together.</p>

<p>Now Mollie has put a stamp firmly on the rumour in an interview with Chris Moyles.</p>

<p>"No, I'm not going out with him - I'm serious. Everyone wants to believe it because it's royalty. Everyone would like it to be true but it's not. He's very out of my league, come on." The singer and face of Aspinal of London stated.</p>

<p>Mollie seems to be so desperate to put an end to the rumours, that now we're thinking that a little bit of something might have happened. Despite rumours that Harry is hooking up with his ex Chelsea Davy, we're not sure this rumour is totally baseless.</p>]]>
