Jamelia, Darren and Maxwell D!

Does the course of true love ever run smoothly? In celeb world the short answer is NO! Another celeb couple have bitten the dust, Pop star Jamelia and footballer Darren Byfield are getting a divorce! and after only 18 months of marriage. They have a four-year-old daughter together Tiani and Jamelia also has an eight-year-old daughter Teja from a previous relationship. The split is said to amicable and naturally their priority is their two children. Shame really, thought they made a nice couple!

But anyway, on one of those rare TV moments which could only be put down to fate, destiny, karma or all of the above, Jamelia was happily minding her own business during her appearance on BBC2 Never Mind The Buzzcocks and along pops Maxwell D (formerly of Pay As You Go Cartel) who had previously sold a kiss and tell story on her to the News of The World. This TV clip classic is a must see!
 
 
Jamelia killed it ‘Who looks the most upset?’ LMAO!!! But Maxwell D have to give it to him, he took it well…
 
 
And then he posted this response video to explained why he acted they way he did in his own words.

Rachel Christie loses her crown!!!

OMG! Rachel Christie is no longer Miss England in what seems to be one of the most bizarre curse of the ex girlfriend stories I have ever heard!

Rachel Christie

ALLEGEDLY Rachel (niece of Linford Christie) was at Mansion club in Manchester with her current love interest Tornado aka David McIntosh (from Gladiator on Sky 1)

Sara Beverley Jones

and also in the club the current Miss Manchester, Sara Beverley Jones, who just happens be Tornado ex- girlfriend. (Ok so not a good start!) It is ALLEGED that Rachel and Sara argued over Tornado. It is then ALLEGED that Rachel then switched and hit Sara in her face (!!!WTF!!!), Rachel was arrested for assault and is currently released on bail. *blank stare*

Rachel Christie

Rachel Christie was the first ever black Miss England and she was due to represent England at Miss World in Johannesburg next month. A statement from Miss England organisation said “Due to the media attention following the allegations against her, Rachel Christie has now decided to withdraw from the Miss World competition and relinquish her Miss England crown…Rachel will concentrate on clearing her name and focus on training for the 2012 Olympics until this case is resolved.”

Did she give up the title willingly or was she forced to? The truth will come out….it just a matter of time but for now what do you think???

 

Sade Says ‘How did it all come to this? Me, I don’t know!’

 Here’s a snippet

And there is more to come

What is strange is the negative response Rihanna is receiving about this whole thing.
