Demi Lpvato gets new phone number after leaving rehab

OHMYGOSSIP — Demi Lovato reportedly has a new phone number after leaving rehab.
The 26-year-old singer – recently left her treatment centre after a 90-day stint following an overdose – is said to have reached out to friends on Instagram as she hopes to connect.
In a screenshot from her story on the social media site posted by Page Six, she simply shared a heart sticker and said: “Friends – DM me for my new number”
It comes after TMZ reported over summer that Demi would be looking to get a new number to better control who she wanted to be able to contact her.
However, the public post meant a lot of the singer’s fans also took the chance to cheekily direct message her in the hope of getting more access to Demi.
Meanwhile, sources now say the ‘Sober’ hitmaker taking every step she can to make sure she stays on the right path, as she still finds “every day a struggle” as she continues to recover.
An insider recently said: “[Demi] is in a really great place, but she’s doing everything she can to maintain that because she knows every day is a struggle.
“Demi is taking a cautious approach with her recent exit from rehab. She has a sober coach, she is working out and eating healthy, surrounding herself with positive influences … and splits her time in a sober living facility and at home.”
Demi has been spending three days a week at a sober house, which has counselling staff on hand, as well as people who she can share experiences with.
But it’s believed to be her regular chats with the 38-year-old actor that are helping her the most, with a source insisting they are just good friends.
An insider previously told TMZ: “She and Wilmer still communicate regularly. Valderrama was a crutch for Demi through her hospitalization and visited her in rehab too.
“The two talk several times a week and meet up as well … but it’s nothing romantic, simply a supportive friendship.”

A two hour special has been confirmed, and it’s set to celebrate all three TV series and both movies with behind the scenes footage, unheard stories and contributions from celebrity fans.

“I just hope Will brings his Mum.”
Meanwhile, co-executive producer Will Macdonald has praised the show’s enduring popularity as the show looks to remember why it was so beloved.
He added: “The love for ‘The Inbetweeners’ is huge, the kind of love that Jay would boast he’s had many times – big celebrities, millions of viewers and loving fans from across the globe.
“And it’s so exciting the boys will be back together to feel that love from all those people and enjoy it first-hand. What could possibly go wrong?”
Channel 4 hasn’t yet announced an air date for the ‘Inbetweeners’ special.

Simon Pegg thinks Star Wars misses George Lucas

OHMYGOSSIP — Simon Pegg thinks the new ‘Star Wars’ movies are “missing” George Lucas.
The 48-year-old actor – who appeared in ‘The Force Awakens’ as Unkar Plutt – has insisted the current sequel trilogy would benefit by having the saga’s creator involved in some capacity.
Speaking on ‘The Adam Buxton Podcast’, he said: “I must admit, watching the last ‘Star Wars’ film [‘The Last Jedi’], the overriding feeling I got when I came out was, ‘I miss George Lucas.’
“For all the complaining that I’d done about him in the prequels, there was something amazing about his imagination… I do feel like his voice is missing from the current ones.”
Pegg has been vocal in the past about his hatred for alien character Jar Jar Binks in the prequel trilogy – which included ‘The Phantom Menace’, ‘The Clone Wars’ and ‘Revenge of the Sith’.
Although he later admitted the fandom could be too critical, he said in 2015 that the trio of films were “[like] George Lucas killing his kid”, adding that “Jar Jar Binks made the Ewoks look like f**king ‘Shaft.’ ”
However, he has now revealed the advice Lucas – who sold Lucasfilm to Disney in 2012 – gave him when they met at the premiere for the third prequel movie.
He told him: “Don’t be making the same film that you made thirty years ago thirty years from now.”
Pegg added about their meeting: “I sort of went to say ‘Hello!’ to him. He turned around and I saw the weariness in his eyes like, ‘Here’s another thirty-something fanboy who’s going to tell me how much I changed his life’…
“He was talking to Ron Howard and I think he’d seen ‘Shaun of the Dead’ ‘cos he immediately went, ‘Oh hey, ‘Shaun of the Dead!” and shook my hand. And George Lucas immediately changed his demeanour.”

The ‘No Problem’ hitmaker has teamed up with his frequent collaborator, Grammy-winner Nico Segal, who will be in charge of the music side of things in the forthcoming feature, which is being funded by MGM.
‘Empire’ writer Carlito Rodriguez is behind the original screenplay, which follows a group of teenagers in Chance’s real-life hometown of Chicago, Illinois, who come together as a community through their love of art.
The 25-year-old star – whose real name is Chancelor Jonathan Bennett – will work alongside his manager Pat Corcoran and his Haight Films, plus Scott Bernstein – who co-produced 2015’s hip-hop drama ‘Straight Outta Compton’ – under Tradecraft.
Corcoran commented: “From day one, our mission at Haight Films has been to apply Haight Brand’s artist-first and Chicago-proud ideology to the film space.
“We are incredibly excited to be working alongside Chance, MGM and Scott Bernstein to bring this vision to life.
MGM’s President, Jonathan Glickman, added: “Chance and Nico are undoubtedly two of the most influential and innovative artists of their generation. We feel thrilled, privileged and eager to be collaborating with them on such a unique project.”
Chance has proved his capabilities for acting in a number of roles.
The ‘Same Drugs’ rapper recently starred as Dax in the thriller ‘Slice’, and, in 2020, he’ll lend his voice to the ‘Trolls’ sequel, ‘Trolls World Tour’.
He’ll be joined by the likes of Kelly Clarkson, Jamie Dornan, Anthony Ramos, Karan Soni, Flula Borg and Sam Rockwell in the follow-up to the 2016 animation.
Clarkson will take on the role of Country Trolls mayor Delta Dawn, and she will sing an original song in the motion picture.
Justin Timberlake – who received a Best Original Song Oscar nomination for tune ‘Can’t Stop the Feeling’ from ‘Trolls’ – is to reprise his role as Branch in the sequel, alongside the likes of Anna Kendrick (Poppy), and James Corden, who will return as Biggie.
Aino Jawo (Satin), Ron Funches (Cooper), Caroline Hjelt (Chenille), and Kunal Nayyar (Guy Diamond) will also reprise their roles in the upcoming movie.
The film will tell the story of the trolls of Troll Town who are shocked to discover there are other trolls beyond their world, each defined by a genre of music.

OHMYGOSSIP — Chris Cornell is set to be honoured with a tribute concert in 2019.
Foo Fighters, Metallica and Ryan Adams are amongst the huge names set for the ‘I Am The Highway’ show in January next year following the rock star’s tragic death in May last year aged 52.
Former members of his old bands – including Soundgarden, Audioslave and Temple of the Dog – are also set to be part of the bill.
Proceeds will benefit the Epidermolysis Bullosa Medical Research Foundation (EBMRF), and Jimmy Kimmel is set to host the special event.
A number of special guests are also expected for the concert at the Forum in Los Angeles on January 16, with tickets going on sale on Friday (16.11.18) at bit.ly/IAmTheHighway.
The announcement comes after it was revealed Chris’ son will appear in a music video for ‘When Bad Does Good’, which was originally released a year after the star’s sad death.
Its unveiling on Friday will coincide with a new boxset spanning the singer’s career, featuring a 17 track self titled LP, alongside a 62 track limited edition box set including songs from both his own solo work, and from his time with Soundgarden, Audioslave and Temple of the Dog.
Last month, Cornell was hailed as the “voice of a generation” by his widow Vicky at a ceremony as she joined their children to reveal artist Nick Marra’s life-sized bronze sculpture at Seattle’s MoPOP Museum.
Hailing Chris as a “beautiful, powerful, incomparable” source of light, she said: “He was the voice of a generation, and an artist that continues to draw us closer together, forever.”
She also took the time to thank those assembled for their support and the city’s “loudest love”.
She said: “I thank you for embracing and loving Chris so deeply. Thank you, Seattle, for the support and loudest love.”

Ally Brooke releasing Last Christmas cover

OHMYGOSSIP — Ally Brooke is releasing a cover of Wham!’s ‘Last Christmas’.
The former Fifth Harmony star took to Twitter on Tuesday (13.11.18) to reveal she is going to pay homage to the 80s duo – which was comprised of the late George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley – by putting her own spin on their festive hit.
The 25-year-old singer will perform the song live at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York, on November 25, but fans will be able to download the track from Friday (16.11.18).
Sharing her excitement, Ally wrote: “it’s been one of the biggest dreams of mine to release a Christmas song and now I finally get to one of my favorite Christmas songs of all time. Aaaand I’ll be performing this on the @macys day parade!!! I cannot wait, I’m so happy // @Nickelodeon @nbc (sic)”
The cover will be released ahead of Ally’s new song, ‘Vámonos’, which she debuted live at the Fusion Festival in Liverpool, England, in September, and will be released on November 23.
The ‘Work from Home’ hitmaker recently signed a deal with Latium Entertainment, and the company – which is jointly owned by Atlantic Records and Warner Music Group Worldwide – teased fans that her debut single would be out in autumn.
Ally said: “There are no words to describe how happy I am to be with Atlantic Records/Latium Artists. It is a real dream come true. I am extremely thankful to have a label and team who fiercely believe in me and my vision.
“It is the greatest gift you can ask for as an artist. I can’t wait to share our art with the world!”
The pop star previously featured on the track ‘Look At Us Now’ with EDM stars Lost Kings and ‘Perfect’ with DJ Topic.
Meanwhile, the singer admitted she is excited to “have a say in everything she does” with her new music, and can’t wait to “unleash” her songs to the world.
She said previously: “I’m ready to unleash Ally. For so long I was in this box and now I’m out of it. I’m able to be who I want to be. Even my mom got emotional the other day. She’s like, ‘Ally, you are you again.’
And it’s beautiful. It really is. I love being able to have a say in everything that I do. They’re so open and also very smart and meticulous, and they pay attention to the details which is something that I’m just such a fan of.”

Lisa Riley became ‘addicted’ to losing weight

OHMYGOSSIP — Lisa Riley shed 12 stone after becoming “addicted” to losing weight.
The ‘Emmerdale’ star – who is to reprise her role as Mandy Dingle in the new year after 17 years away from the Dales – admits her life was “filled with self-loathing” until she shed some pounds, but when she started fitting in smaller sizes she couldn’t stop trying to slim down.
She said: “I was obese, had a dreadful diet, drank too much and was filled with self-loathing. I was a complete over-eater and an emotional eater. I’d eat when I was happy and eat when I was sad.
“I decided that instead of feeling sorry for myself and making up excuses, I had to do something about it and turn those negatives into positives.
“And, believe me, once you start seeing results it becomes addictive.
“As my dress sizes started to drop and my choice of clothes grew, it spurred me on to keep going.”
The ‘Three Girls’ star admits she was a “classic over-eater” and says she couldn’t resist chowing down on a three-course meal on a night out during her larger days.
She said: “I was the classic over-eater but I have completely changed my attitude towards food
“I used to go out for a meal and have a starter, main and pudding. No wonder I was gaining weight.”
The 42-year-old actress has recommended people to abstain from alcohol and cut out carbs if they want to shed some stone, admitting both really helped her slim down.
She is quoted by the Daily Mirror newspaper as saying: “Alcohol is just empty calories. I know cutting out the booze had a massive impact on helping me to shed the pounds.
“Even if you can stop boozing between now and December, when the parties all start, it will give you a huge kick-start.”
This comes a day after Lisa confirmed she is heading back to ‘Emmerdale’, and she cannot wait to see what Mandy gets up to in the new year.
She said: “I could not be happier to be returning in the new year to Emmerdale. It’s something I never thought would happen after 17 years and I am so interested to see what trouble Mandy is capable of causing.
“But mostly being back with all my old friends, it’s like I’ve never been away.”

The X Factor renewed until 2022

OHMYGOSSIP — Simon Cowell says ‘The X Factor’ is being renewed until at least 2022.
The 59-year-old music mogul has revealed ITV has offered to keep the talent show on screens for the foreseeable future, after winning over a “younger” audience.
He told The Sun newspaper: “We’ve just been offered an extension on both shows because of the 16 to 34-year-old audience.
“We could probably do three years or five years.
“It makes a lot of money.”
Though Simon admits they’ve lost viewers of late, he’s positive about the future.
He continued: “We’re losing people now but fortunately the young audience has actually grown this year and all the advertisers and the sponsors want that income on a Saturday.”
The younger audience is no doubt down to having One Direction heartthrob Louis Tomlinson, 26, on the judging panel, which is also comprised of Robbie Williams and his wife Ayda Field.
Simon’s positivity about the future of the programme comes two weeks after the show earned its lowest ever rating figure since it started in 2004, with just 4.78 million viewers tuning in as it was plagued with sound problems.
Simon – who is also the boss of ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ – revealed that he is also planning to rejig the show’s format and is even contemplating a celebrity version.
He said: “I think with all things you’ve got to change the format a bit sometimes, which is part of our job, the fun part of our job.
“ITV have been amazing actually this year. We had this really good run on ‘BGT’ with the live shows and we coped without Ant (McPartlin).
“We’ve got the new dance show on the BBC, and two other music shows, which I think will be announced soon and we’re going to do over the next two years as well.”
The Syco label chief is also busy working on his first show for the BBC.
‘The Greatest Dancer’ will see with soloists, duos and groups auditioning on stage in a bid to be crowned the UK’s best dance act.
Simon is reuniting with former ‘X Factor’ judge Cheryl, who is joined on the panel by ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ professional Oti Mabuse and Glee’s’ Matthew Morrison.
The new show will air in 2019, and Britain’s Got Talent’s Alesha Dixon and Diversity star Jordan Banjo are set to host the Saturday night competition.

Chrissy Teigen ‘doesn’t know’ if she’ll have more kids

OHMYGOSSIP — Chrissy Teigen “doesn’t know” if she’ll have anymore more children.
The 32-year-old model already has five-month-old son Miles and two-year-old daughter Luna – whom she has with husband John Legend – and she is so happy to have a boy and a girl that she isn’t rushing to get pregnant again.
When asked if she’d like to expand her brood, she replied: “I don’t know if I can have anymore.
“I got my girl, I got my boy. They’re perfect. I love them. And we’ll see!”
Chrissy called her little boy “the happiest bug”.
Asked how he’s getting on, she told E! News: “He is so happy, he can be sick …
“He’ll throw up on himself and just smile. He’s just the happiest bug.”
Chrissy was recently honoured with the Influencer Award at the Glamour’s Women of the Year Awards, but she admits that going to ceremonies and red carpets isn’t as glamorous as it appears.
She said: “I’m like, do we ever just go to anything where, like, we don’t have to do anything? Like usually John’s performing, or he’s accepting something and now it’s me, which is amazing.”
On the effort that goes into getting ready and not being able to drink as much, she added: “They are nice, but you sit in glam for such a long time, and then you come to something like this (Glamour) … When you have a speech to make you don’t really want to drink a ton and you want to be very present. It’s a lot.”
At the ceremony on Monday (12.11.18), ‘All of Me’ hitmaker John grew emotional as he paid tribute to his wife.
The 39-year-old star described himself as the ‘Lip Sync Battle’ star’s “trophy husband” and hailed his spouse as the “heart and soul” of their family.
He said: “I have a career in the music business, but we all know who the star of the family is. She’s the heart and soul of the family too.
“I am very much in love with this woman. I mean, obviously, I guess. She is my wife. And she is the mother of our daughter Luna and our son Miles.
“But I’m not the only one who loves her. Many millions of people who aren’t married or related to her love her too.
“Everywhere I go, I meet people, fans, who used to ask me for an autograph or tell me how much they love my music. Now, the number one comment I get from people who USED to be MY fans is how much they LOVE Chrissy. She gets bigger cheers than I do at my own concerts. They love her!”

Chrissy Metz has new boyfriend

OHMYGOSSIP — Chrissy Metz has a new boyfriend.
The ‘This Is Us’ actress was pictured holding hands with 25-year-old composer Hal Rosenfeld at the W Hollywood hotel on Sunday (11.11.18), ‘Entertainment Tonight’ revealed, and the pair have also been spotted together in a number of recent Instagram posts.
Last month, Chrissy shared a group photo of her 38th birthday celebrations in Palm Springs, in which she could be seen cuddling up to Hal.
She captioned the slideshow of images: “Reminiscing about one special birthday weekend with a few special people at such a special place @laquintaresort.
“Thank you again to the lovely people who made it all possible!(sic).”
Chrissy has been single since splitting from cameraman in Josh Stancil, six months after the actress – who was married to British journalist Martyn Eaden from 2008 until 2013 – insisted she was in no rush to walk down the aisle again.
She said last September: “Nobody is trying to get married!”
“I was previously married to an amazing man, we’re still friends, but it’s not something that… I want to figure out what’s going on. This needs to be about me and I, of course, can have a healthy relationship — but I’m not in any rush to get married.”
Meanwhile, Chrissy recently admitted she is keen to lose weight for herself, not to please anyone else.
She said: “[I’m losing weight] not for anybody but myself … I want to have a fit, healthy body and not have to be put in a box. I don’t want to be limited by anything …
“You don’t realise that somebody who’s average or even very fit could relate to someone who’s overweight but it’s not about our size – it’s how we look at ourselves and how we feel about ourselves.”

Brian Austin Green slammed by ex

OHMYGOSSIP — Vanessa Marcil has urged Brian Austin Green to put “kids first” after accusing him of cutting their son out of his life.
The ‘Las Vegas’ actress has 16-year-old Kassius with her former partner but she claims the ‘Beverly Hills 90210′ actor and his wife Megan Fox – who have Noah, six, Bodhi, four, and two-year-old Journey together – have only seen the teenager a handful of times in the last five years.
She shared a screenshot of one of her own comments on Instagram which read: “They have been at the same wedding, same resort and same play a few times in passing and a few 60 minute lunches. That is it.”
She then captioned the post: “From yesterday also so calm tf down guys. The truth is the truth and it IS needed for healing after 15 years. Love to all parents. Moms and dads. Let’s put our kids first.(sic)”
The 50-year-old star’s post came a few days after she claimed Kassius had never met his youngest half brother and doesn’t even know where his dad lives with his family.
She wrote on Instagram: “5 years ago on their own they decided to completely cut Kass out of their lives and his younger brothers’ lives. Kass has never met his youngest brother and is not allowed to know where his bio father, stepmother and three younger brothers live. He has only seen his dad in passing in public places.(sic)”
Vanessa also went into detail about the custody battle she went through with the 45-year-old actor and his 32-year-old spouse, explaining they initially requested full custody but lost their bid and were slammed by the judge.
She wrote: “12 years ago I was served legal papers and then spent 8 years+ defending myself and my son in custody court in response to his father & his stepmother trying to get full custody(that means I would have seen my son four days a month) and then asking me to pay them child support.
“They lost that case & a civil case asking me for 200,000. I never spoke publicly in order to protect my then young son from paparazzi that used to follow him & terrify him.
“I had also never asked for child support of any kind and had never tried to take time away from Kass’ dad seeing him. Ever. In the end they lost all of these court cases. The judge called them all “Frivolous”.
“They always had 50% custody and still did when court ended as I had and have NEVER asked for full custody. (sic)”
She urged divorced parents to work together for the sake of their children.
She concluded: “Custody cases hurt the children only and the truth shall set us all free. Put the kids first you guys. There shouldn’t be a “more important parent” kids love both parents equally no matter what either parent’s struggles may be. Kass has been truly heartbroken since being cut out of his other families lives with NO explanation. Let’s do better for our kids.(sic)”

Barbara Palvin: Dylan Sprouse is the perfect guy

OHMYGOSSIP — Barbara Palvin says Dylan Sprouse is “the perfect guy”.
The Victoria’s Secret model has been dating the 26-year-old actor for just a few months, and after being “single for six years” it was worth the wait to meet the former ‘The Suite Life of Zack & Cody’ star.
Speaking to Vogue Australia, she said: “It’s not normal for me to have a boyfriend. I was single for six years. It did pay off, I feel like I found the perfect guy. He’s very kind and gentle.”
Barbara, 25, is “very much in love” with Dylan and she just wants to spend as much time as possible with him when she’s not working.
She said: “That’s what I do on my day off: I spend it with the people I love and I’m very much in love right now.”
Last week, Barbara walked in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show last week and after spending months getting her figure finely honed for the lingerie catwalk extravaganza she binged on burgers to celebrate.
It was Barbara’s first appearance in the show for six years and because she was so careful about what she ate in the weeks leading up to the show she and Dylan enjoyed some fast food once her job was done.
Speaking backstage before the event, she admitted: “He is bringing Shake Shack burgers for me.”
Whilst she stuck to her strict diet, Barbara was getting her food fix by watching clips of meals online and cooking for her boyfriend, who she started dating earlier this year.
She said: “We had a funny thing this morning because I was watching videos of food. That is what I do! I was like, ‘Yeah, dip it! Cut it! Eat it!’
“[Dylan] was like, ‘Babe? Are you ok?’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, but it is just fried lasagne!’ I cook for [Dylan]. So I watch him eat and I just drool.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Pedro Pascal has been cast as the main character in new ‘Star Wars’ spin-off series ‘The Mandalorian’.
The 43-year-old actor – best known for his roles in ‘Game of Thrones’ and ‘Narcos’ – will be the man in the Mandalorian armour, made famous by bounty hunters Boba Fett and his father Jango Fett, according to Variety.
The series is being written and executive-produced by ‘Iron Man’ director Jon Favreau and although plot details have been scare an official synopsis has now been released by Disney.

The spin-off is set to be a big part of Disney’s launch for its streaming platform Disney+ – alongside possible Marvel projects focused on Tom Hiddleston’s Loki and Elizabeth Olsen’s Scarlet Witch – which is set to be available in 2019.

Jessie Wallace’s ‘amazing’ Frozen performance

OHMYGOSSIP — Jessie Wallace had an “amazing day” transforming into Frozen’s Elsa for a Children in Need sketch.
The ‘EastEnders’ actress – known for her portrayal of Kat Moon on the BBC One soap – has filmed a performance of the film’s popular song ‘Let It Go’ as part of a Disney medley which will be put on by her co-stars for charity.
Jessie’s sequence sees her dressed in Elsa’s trademark ice blue dress as she belts out the song – performed by Idina Menzel in the 2013 film – by the swings in the fictional Walford setting, and she had a great time shooting the segment.
She wrote on Twitter: “We all had such an amazing day filming this for @BBCCiN (sic)”
As well as Jessie’s portrayal of Elsa, Tilly Keeper (Louise Mitchell) and Zack Morris (Keegan Baker) will take on the roles of Jasmine and Aladdin from the titular Disney movie.
She said: “It was a dream come true to be a Disney Princess for BBC Children in Need! We had so much fun filming the performance, it was such a special day.
“Let’s hope we all raise lots of money on the night for this fantastic charity.”
Zack added “Never in a million years did I think I would be playing Aladdin as I danced round Albert Square.
“I had so much fun taking part and it’s such an honour to be part of something so special.
“I really hope it helps to raise lots of money for BBC Children in Need.”
The medley will also feature songs such as ‘Friend Like Me’ from ‘Aladdin’ with Lorraine Stanley (Karen Taylor) performing as Genie, and Shona McGarty (Whitney Dean) will transform into Belle from ‘Beauty And The Beast’, with Davood Ghadami (Kush Kazemi) as Gaston, and Nitin Ganatra (Masood Ahmed) as LeFou.
The full medley will feature on the BBC’s ‘Children In Need’ appeal show, which will air on Friday (16.11.18) at 7.30pm on BBC One.

AJ Pritchard and Johnny Mercer win Celebrity Hunted

OHMYGOSSIP — A.J. Pritchard and Johnny Mercer have won ‘Celebrity Hunted’.
The ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ professional and the MP – who both parted company with their show partners, Louis Smith and Kay Burley respectively, earlier in the ‘Stand Up To Cancer’ special series – managed to outwit the team of experts and successfully made to their extraction point at the River Solent in Southampton in the nick of time.
The two stars both jumped into the water in order to get onto the boat that had come to take them off to safety – and narrowly dodged a hunter who dove from his own vessel but landed in the water.
After nearly two weeks on the run, A.J. was brought to tears when he thought about seeing his mum again, his only family member who hadn’t assisted him during the fortnight.
He said: “Mum is the only person I haven’t seen for two weeks. If I saw her now I’d probably burst into tears. I don’t even know why, maybe just because it has been stressful and it has been tiring and I haven’t been able to talk to her and she’s the person I would talk to every day.
“I’m doing it for mum. She was just like, ‘Go out there and have fun and don’t waste a second. It gets emotional when you know the end is so close.”
And he said afterwards: “It was an emotional, physical rollercoaster. I can call my mum now and tell her I did it! She’s going to be so proud.”
Earlier in the final episode, the hunters were tipped off as to the location of the extraction point by captured Chris Hughes and Kem Cetinay.
The ‘Love Island’ stars had been traced to the London home of one of the 22-year-old hairdresser’s relatives and opted to surrender together. While waiting to be interviewed by the hunters, they were placed in a holding room by a man they were told was one of Johnny’s friends and left to talk about their upcoming grilling.
As predicted by the team of experts, Kem blurted out the extraction location when he told the mystery man not to “mention Southampton” – and further strengthened the information when he was interviewed and talked about heading for a boat, before quickly trying to cover his tracks.

Niall Horan sent Lewis Capaldi a DM to get him on tour

OHMYGOSSIP — Niall Horan sent Lewis Capaldi a private message to ask if he’d join him on tour.
The One Direction singer invited the rising star to support him at his show in Glasgow – the youngster’s hometown – earlier this year, and it appears the ‘This Town’ hitmaker was already a fan of the 22-year-old musician.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column, Lewis said: “The way he asked me to do it was via Instagram, so basically at this point he’s already Tweeted about the music.
“He’s been a very vocal supporter of what I’m doing online. It was mad. And ever since then we’ve just kind of kept in touch.”
Lewis – who has also opened up shows for both Sam Smith and Rag’n’Bone Man’ – revealed he and Niall, 25, still meet up when they happen to be in Los Angeles.
The ‘Someone You Loved’ singer – who is currently headlining his own tour across the UK – added: “He’s just been f***ing class.”
Meanwhile, last month Lewis reflected on his time on the road with Niall and revealed the main lesson he took away was the importance of staying grounded.
He recently said: “Just the fact, he’s so nice, do you know what I mean?
“The way someone who’s that successful and had done massive things on his own and with One Direction, to still be as humble as he is and as sound as he is is a big thing for me.
“You might get big and become an asshole and there is no reason for it. He’s one of the biggest pop singers in the world and you can just sit with him in the pub. The way he treats people around him, no matter who they are, it’s all the same soundness. That’s all I took away from it.”
