Toxic Twins – Go Home!

Celebrity Breakfast brought to you by Paramount Media Productions


Two manipulative and hypocritical twin sisters – the Shannon twins from America, have rocked the Celebrity big brother house!
Some very strange characters have been in the Big Brother house over the years but the twins are in my opinion are the most conceited housemates ever. After becoming public enemy number one with viewers after their fight night with Denise Welch, Karissa and Kristina Shannon were still arrogant enough to admit that they believe they can win the show. The Playboy twins seemed unaware that they ware not favourites in the house and were way behind retired Welsh rugby stars Gareth Thomas and X Factor reject Frankie Cocozza.

Their behaviour is unacceptable – bullying Denise Welch which as you can see from their picture’s was just one big farce and accusing Frankie of sexually harassing them telling Big Brother that they are certain the 19 year old wants to sleep with them stating that he has got the hugest crush on us, obviously he wants to bang us and then she added that he is disgusting.

Denise Welch may be riding an emotional rollercoaster with her fellow contestants in the house, but here on the outside her buddies and the British public are still there for her. Speaking at the National Television Awards red carpet, Jane McDonald told of the pride that the Loose Women gang have for the 53-year-old actress and added that they just want to go in there and get her out now, but at least she’s standing up for herself. Support was also forthcoming from Carol Vorderman, ready to welcome Denise back with open arms and a big hug.
Speaking from my personal opinion knowing Denise now for over 20 years I would like to say that Denise Welch is one the the kindest ladies I know, she hasn’t got a bad bone in her body and has worked tirelessly for many years raising money for her devoted charities – I am very proud to say she is God Mother to my daughter Jessica who adores her.

CELEBRITY BIG BROTHER ENDS ON FRIDAY  – VOTE DENISE!

Richard Fleeshman

Celebrity Breakfast brought to you by Paramount Media Productions

Richard Fleeshman is and actor/singer/songwriter and the son of former Brookside and Coronation Street actress Sue Jenkins and actor/director David Fleeshman and has two sisters, Emily and Rosie who are also actresses.
I have known the family for many years and have done many charity events in the past where they would come and support me. As a young boy I remember Sue coming down in the daytime during set up to a particular music event I did every year and would set Richard to work helping us out with whatever needed doing at that time – he never complained just got on with it and always with a smile. He was always such a polite young man, a credit to his parents and a few years later at my wedding in 2005 he was a guest along with his family but also did me the honor of singing at the evening party – Elton John’s rendition of ‘Your Song’.
In 2002 Richard joined the cast of Coronation Street and played the role of Craig Harris that really catapulted him up there in the spotlight and his last episode was aired in October 2006. He also won Soapstar Superstar in 2006 and won £200,000 for his chosen Charity, The Kirsty Appeal which I remember well as Sue would text me to support Richard which of course I did! Richard’s true passion is singing/song writing and he signed a major record deal with Universal Records in 2007 and then completed writing his debut album – In 2008 he was invited by Sir Elton John to join him on his summer stadium tour – it doesn’t get much bigger than that!

In June 2010, Richard joined the company of Legally Blonde in London, taking over from Duncan James in the role of Warner and currently he stars in Ghost The Musical playing the role of Sam Wheat (played by Patrick Swayze in the film) He finished his role in the West End on 12th January before moving to New York to star in the new Broadway production in March which his Dad had told me a few weeks ago when had he had found out!
I went to London last week to see Richard’s last show with the Fleesman’s and a few close friends – the show is an emotional pull on the heartstrings anyway but alongside the fact it was Richard’s last night we were all in tears at the end as they took their bow to a full standing ovation and I noticed even the ushers were in tears.
We have all planned to fly to over to New York for Richard’s opening night in April – can’t wait!

Celebrity Big Brother 2012

Celebrity Breakfast brought to you by Paramount Media Productions

The house is open – they have moved in – let the fun begin!
Throw away your new gym membership, ditch the New Year’s resolutions to not watch so much trashy TV and forget about your promise to spend more time with friends and family – Celebrity Big Brother is back and it’s here to take over your January.
As the house welcomes one of my best friends, Denise Welch along with some other ‘fun’ characters I think we are going to see one of the best yet!
Natalie Cassidy had to perform a task as soon as she entered the house and traditionally, housemates who have to do the first secret task do quite well but I think Denise will have a few tricks up her sleeve. I was excited when Denise told me she was going into the CBB house because she’s not going to hold back if someone gets on her nerves and she’s a very funny lady. Not only that, but she’s been on the showbiz circuit for over twenty years, and believe me she has some great gossip.

I recently spent a week in the Bahamas with her when we bid for a villa in a charity auction with a few other friends and just being herself she is pure entertainment – I laughed for a week!
It was nice to her close friend Pammie there to support her going in to the house and also fellow ‘Loose Women’ Andrea Mclean who I met recently in London studios when the ladies were filming a show – I couldn’t believe the hard work that actually goes into every show!
I know Denise was dreading going into the house as was her eldest son Matthew who told me he wasn’t too keen for his mum to go in – I suppose being a protective son as they are very close in case of back lash as the media can be cruel, however ‘Little Louis’ as I call him, Denise’s youngest son was very excited.
I told Denise I thought she would do well – just to be herself whom she always is and most of all enjoy the peace and quiet and not having to take 10,000 phone calls a day!

VOTE DENISE!!!!

Meeting of Legends

Sir Cliff Richard OBE and Johnny Mathis – arguably two of the biggest music legends of their generation.

This summer I was at Cliffs villa in Portugal having coffee chatting about many stars we had both met over the years – Cliff spoke about many huge stars such as Olivia Newton-John and then I mentioned growing up with stars such as Tom Jones and Johnny Mathis who were guests at my Dad’s wedding in Las Vegas a few years ago. Cliff’s eyes lit up when Johnny was mentioned and he told me that they had unbelievably never met over the 50 years in the business and that he would love to meet him.

As fate had it in October this year they would both be doing a show at the MEN arena on consecutive nights and so I spoke to Johnny and asked if we could arrange some sort of meeting whilst they were both in the UK. Johnny was delighted to meet Cliff and so we all arranged to go and watch Johnny perform and then meet backstage for a drink. During the show Johnny made reference on stage to Cliff, Lamont Dozier (Why Can’t We be Lovers?), Freda Payne (Band of Gold), Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis, Jr. (Aquarius, Let the Sunshine In) and Percy Sledge (When a Man Loves A Woman) who were all performing some their own hits and then singing their recent duets with Cliff from the SOULICIOUS album in the show the nextnightthe group were clearly delighted and responded with cheers from the box.

After the show we all met up and it was lovely to have been the person responsible for bringing two such amazing artists together for the first time.

 

Johnny came to stay for a few days with Dad at home to relax after his tour before he headed back to the states and to play a few holes of golf! Dad hosted a dinner one night and invited Denise & Tim Healy who were delighted to meet Johnny as Denise’s mum Annie is a huge fan and so we surprised her with a phone call from Johnny on the night!

 

An extraordinary few days with two truly amazing legends.
