Koalas Carrying Chlamydia, A Tell-All-Book And Smacking Your Face On A Car Door.

As usual in celeb land, this week has been busy. And I have to say I've heard some of my favourite stories this week too.

Why don't we start with Alex Reid? The self proclaimed "Reidinator" pulled out of the London Marathon this week. Oh that's a shame, you may think, but for me it was the way he pulled out. He twisted his ankle while he was practising for his show Wildboyz. Now, Wildboyz is another blog post entirely. If anyone saw This Morning the other day you know how bloody ridiculous it is. It "stars" Alex Reid (ex-Katie Price), Danny Young (he used to be in Corrie), Dale Howard (he was on Big Brother) and Marcus Patrick (Hollyoaks, of course) and all I know is they take their shirts off. That's as much as they had practised for This Morning anyhow. It looks absolutely shocking. But I digress. So Alex Reid is in Harley Street, having a scan on his ankle. He then goes to his car, smacks his head on the car door and breaks his teeth. So he has to go back in to the doctors and have emergency surgery. YOU COULDN'T MAKE IT UP.

There's so much I hate about this photo...

We've had loads of stories coming out (BUT NOT HIM) about Simon Cowell. The biggest revelation is that him and Dannii Minogue had a fling when they were both single on the X Factor. It's since been confirmed that it was true, but that's not stopped the rumours circling around that Simon Cowell is gay. As he said though, why wouldn't he just admit it? I have to think he's right, I don't think it would make a blind bit of difference if he came out. Some other stories include that he was memorised by Cheryl Cole, he has botox, he feels betrayed over Sharon Osbourne's rant, him and ITV are at loggerheads over everything and he buys black toilet roll. I'd buy the book but Digital Spy seemed to have covered everything of slight interest.

Who'd have thought...?

And finally a little story about One Direction. Harry Styles and Liam Payne think they might have contracted chlamydia through koala urine. YEAH, RIGHT. YOUR PARENTS WILL BELIEVE THAT! I've heard some excuses in my time but this has got to be one of the best. They may be young but they're not that stupid... Are they? They had a photo shoot with koala bears and now think they may have caught the disease. Apparently 80% of koalas are infected with chlamydia but it's highly unlikely it could be passed on to humans. Better think of another excuse boys!

1D on The X Factor... So young! And ridiculously successful.
