X Factor Watch: The weird and wonderful!

Double Denim: Does Aiden Grimshaw have the X Factor? Copyright ITV

This week's X Factor was the most entertaining for many reasons; Nicole from Pussycat Dolls made an appearance, a crazy lady with white blonde Gandalf hair took to the stage...oh and Chezza finally collapsed.

Then there was Savannah the bell ringer, Simon & Louis with their simultaneous giggle fits, Nicole's mucho posh outfits and the guy with who sang Gold Digger in more denim than should be allowed.

It was fab on many levels, although I did feel cheated after they built up Cheryl's malaria scare and dedicated all but 9 seconds to it!

Anyway, by far the most surreal moment was a stick insect with massive eyelashes taking to the stage towards the end of the show.


Chloe Victoria: Love or Loathe?

Now, I felt sorry for her, but others wern't so kind. Sure she overdid the tan, the make-up, the clothes, the hair (I could go on) but she could actually sing.

The attitude didn't help her, but she got through, so here's hoping she improves for bootcamp. By improve, I mean ditch all the fakery and let the real Chloe out.

My fave contestant had to be scouse Rebecca, who channelled Audrey Hepburn with her audition style. Looking stunning in a simple LBD, pearl earrings and necklace- she stole the show.

To see her audition, check out the official X Factor video below...




Bring on Bootcamp!!!!

Celebrity Wedding Weekend!

Well I never, three celebrity weddings in one weekend- Hello magazine must have been beside themselves with glee. I came across all three weddings on the Daily Mail this afternoon and thought Awww, don't they look sweet?!

Kirsty Gallacher, Alicia Keys and Chelsea Clinton were the lucky ladies who tied the knot, and all went for different looks, which is of course why I have a vested interest- the fashion!

Kirsty went demure, Alicia went pretty and Chelsea went pricey; three different brides all working the big white dress look to perfection.

My favourite has to be Kirsty’s dress, as the antique lace looked so ridiculously classy and chic, she could have passed for a modern day Audrey Hepburn.

While Chelsea instead opted for a strapless Ivory gown complete with jewel encrusted middle, which undoubtedly had the wow factor. After spending over £3million on the big day, you would certainly hope it made people gape!

Then there’s the lovely Alicia Keys who looked stunning in a Grecian style asymmetrical gown, complete with a massive baby bump. Glowing with happiness, Alicia gets the award for most relaxed bride me thinks!
