Emmy Awards: Outfits…

After months of celebrity festival goers donning trilbys, denim shorts, wellies and fringed waistcoats, it’s time for another round of gorgeous, red-carpet worthy gowns to come out of those giant walk-in wardrobes.

Here’s what they wore…

Glee starlet, Lea Michele teamed her stunning midnight-blue Oscar de la Renta dress with matching jewellery and dark nails.

Big Brother Final…

After almost three months in the BB11 house, it was finally announced that bubbly Bristolian lass, Josie Gibson was the winner of Big Brother 2010. She walked out, screamed a bit, chatted to Davina and then, to her surprise, she went back into the house. Then, the moment we were all waiting for, ten former contestants re-entered. Makosi, Preston, Chantelle (we wonder if they’ll get back together?), Nasty Nick, Nadia, Nikki ‘who is she?’ Grahame, Ulrika, John, Brian and Coolio are the lucky competitors who will be battling it out to win the proud title of ‘Ultimate Big Brother winner’. This is certainly going to be an entertaining couple of weeks…

Alexandra Burke & Danny Cipriani…??

A rumour has been flying around for quite a long time now about Kelly Brook’s ex, Danny Cipriani and X-Factor winner, Alexandra Burke. We’re wondering if their relationship is strictly friends-only or whether there is an incy-winsy bit of flirting going on between the pair. Alexandra was asked about Danny in a recent interview with Look magazine and she revealed:

“We’re just friends! We met in April when I performed at a Wasps match and we were out with a group of friends. I don’t even fancy him!”

But a source at V Festival insisted that:

“She was looking up at him and gazing into his eyes.”

Hmmm… what do you reckon?!
