US pop superstar Jason Derulo has today announced his plans of his very first headline UK tour next February.

The 20 year old is set to play eight dates across England, with one show in Cardiff. The tour announcement comes after performances at Radio 1's Big Weekend and V Festival over the course of the summer, both of which received mixed reviews from fans and critics.

Derulo first came onto the scene with his smash debut single "Whatcha Say" peaking at the UK charts at number three, followed by "In My Head" which debuted at number one. Combined with his third single "Ridin' Solo", they have sold over 1.3 million downloads combined!

His debut album reached number eight in the UK charts, has sold over one million copies worldwide, and is also set to reach platinum status in the UK soon, since it has already sold 100,000 copies.

The venues on the tour are all relatively small, so it is a great opportunity to see a singer who will one day undoubtebly be huge in the world of music. Tickets are priced between £24 and £26, and go on sale this 10th September at 9:30am.

Pop superstar Lady Gaga's first Polaroid creation will be arriving in 2011 it has been confirmed. Earlier this year the Poker Face singer was announced as the new Creative Director of photographic company Polaroid. Ever since, fans have been waiting eagerly to see what the creative pop princess could conjure up and now they have been told to expect the camera by early 2011. United Kingdom Managing Director gave an insight as to what to expect:

"Obviously, the design's pretty wacky but it'll definitely appeal to her fans, and with over 10 million of them on Facebook, we're pretty sure this will do well."

The unnamed camera will be released as one of the company's analogue range in the style of the polaroid 300. However, the camera wont produce the company's famous 4x4 prints but instead 3x4 prints but still include the traditional white border. It is expected to cost in the region of £100.

If you haven't heard of the 'Wizarding World of Harry Potter' attraction, what bubble have you been living in? It seems that craze has excited money-grabbing executives everywhere as it's been reported that the set of Coronation Street, the popular ITV soap, could soon become the next theme-park style tourist attraction.

According to the Sunday Mirror, bosses of Coronation Street are planning to relocate the Street to Salford Quays near MediaCity UK. This would then leave the existing set available for fans to walk through. Possible ideas for the set is for tourists to have a drink in the Rovers Return (hopefully without all the fights), shop at Rita's Kabin (without the nosy Norris watching you with beady eyes)... and even film their own soap scene. That'd be amazing, in my opinion! I'd love to walk along the cobbles although I'm no good with accents, I'd have to work on that.

A source said: "There is a lot there that people would like to visit. Coronation Street bosses think it would be a hugely popular attraction and a fitting tribute to the old set." A spokesman added that "we are currently discussing a number of options." It certainly would be a fitting tribute to the old set that has seen so much. These are the cobbles where Mike Baldwin, pictured right, died in his arch-enemy's arms, Ken Barlow. These are the cobbles that saw the Eileen-Gail catfight. These are the cobbles... oh you get the idea.

Brides very often diet before a wedding to fit in their perfect dress and Vanessa Feltz took that to the extreme with a gastric band. The groom? Big Brother's Victor Ebuwa! Not to worry, it's all just a recreation of the wedding task in Big Brother history. While 1 new housemate enters the house, two left...

Makosi Musambasi and Nadia Almada were both evicted from the Ulimate Big Brother house on Friday. Makosi was the first to leave, evicted with 41.7% of the vote. She didn't look back on her time in the house with anger though. "I still feel very very blessed I was part of something so beautiful and something so huge." Before she was evicted, she was reunited with BB6 winner, Anthony Hutton, who she allegedly had a romp with in the Big Brother pool although on the show, she admitted that this did not happen. "He was such a gentleman about it. I'm glad he came in and we talked."

Nadia Almada was next to leave in a shock double eviction with 33.2% of the vote. Before she was evicted, there was an incident now dubbed as 'Plategate' where Nadia insisted that Ulrika Jonsson should have cleared a broken plate up quicker. In my opinion, I couldn't help but just think 'it's a plate, what's the big deal?' She said of her relationship with Ulrika: "Ulrika is a very strong female. I just didn't think I could really be around her."

Chantelle, Nick, Nikki and Ulrika were all saved from eviction by the public vote although Brian Dowling is favourite to win the Ultimate Big Brother, which ends on Friday. For my opinion on the show so far, click read more.

It has been revealed from a close source of Cheryl Cole that she could be leaving the UK X Factor at the end of this series, and begin focusing on her career in the United States.

It is rumoured that Cheryl is being lined up to be a judge on the US version of the show, along with fellow judge Simon Cowell. She also wants to promote her singing career in the US and live closer to rumoured boyfriend Derek Hough. It has also been revealed that there will not be a X Factor for the UK next year, as Simon focuses on launching the US version, much to the disappointment of all it's British fans, and singers alike. 

However the news will be music to Danii Minogue's ears, as it was revealed earlier this summer that Simon was considering replacing her for a new female judge. Possible replacements for Cheryl could include the girlfriend of Lewis Hamiltion, Pussy Cat Doll lead singer Nicole Scherzinger, who impressed Simon when filling in for Cheryl due to Malaria, and could be part of the radical changes for the 2012 show.

Nothing has been finalised, but X factor staff have been told they will not be needed for 2011, and that the US version of the X Factor will have a huge indication of what will happen to the UK version during 2012.  

Boys up and down the country must be daydreaming around the world at the next revelation from the totally delicious, Katy Perry! The 'I kissed a girl' singer has joked that she would turn gay for... Cheryl Cole.

Cheryl Cole, who has recently divorced from footballer Ashley Cole and is allegedly dating dancer Derek Hough, and Katy Perry, who is engaged to actor and comedian Russel Brand, met during auditions of series 7 of ITV reality show, X Factor where Cole is a judge and Perry was a guest judge, filling in for Danni Minogue. Since then, Katy has been piling the praise on Cheryl, including describing her as 'edible' and 'gorgeous'.

"I adore Cheryl - she's amazing. I'm very happy with my English stud [Brand] but if I wasn't with him, I'd be trying to date Cheryl" she told Bang Showbiz. "No-one should be as beautiful as she is. I know people get turned on by Simon's [Cowell] power but if I was single I'd rather sleep with Cheryl than Simon"

GMTV, one of Britain's most successful breakfast shows today went live for one last time due to ITV announcing in March 2010 that the show would be axed in order to make way for new ITV breakfast show ‘Daybreak’ hosted by former ‘The One Show Duo' Adrian Chiles and Christine Bleakley.

GMTV has been a show that the nation has enjoyed waking up to for 17 years! It was decided that the show would come to an end due to financial problems at ITV. 

Currently there is a lot of speculation as to whether the new show will work. Many viewers have expressed their concern and the question that ITV are continuously being asked is why has a show been killed that still had a lot of life?

GMTV’s replacement show will be fronted by Chiles and Bleakley. Adrian has experience as a news anchor however for Christine it’s all new to her. GMTV is known for it’s grilling of MP’s and tackling extremely hard issues in the world of journalism… so will Christine be right for this job?

Daybreak launches on Monday 6th September and will be on from 6am until 8.30am. Read on for more!

X Factor Judge and Girls Aloud member Cheryl Cole has today divorced her husband Ashley Cole following their separation in February 2010!

Cheryl Cole had left the Chelsea defender after it was revealed that he had cheated on her once again following the allegations of his affair in January 2009. Cheryl has proved that she is becoming stronger and stronger now that Ashley is out of her life. With her X Factor career well on the right path and her health returning to its normal state she really has proved she doesn't need the love rat in her life anymore!

Cheryl will be launching her second solo album this autumn and is concentrating on the future. Cheryl seems to be moving on at a rather fast rate! The world are still unaware whether or not she has entered a relationship with a fairly new 'close friend' Derek Hough.

Ashley however continued to play for Chelsea and has previously been seen in the media with more females. You would think the cheat might have just learnt his lesson by now and slowed things down a little!

Rock band Guns N’ Roses were forced to walk off stage at their gig in Dublin last night after fans stated throwing bottles at them. The upset happened after the band was an hour late for their highly anticipated performance. Twenty minutes into their gig singer Axl Rose was forced to stop during Welcome To The Jungle and told spectators "Here's the deal: One more bottle and we go home." He continued, "It's up to you. We would like to stay. We want to stay. We want to have some fun. If you don't want to have fun, all you've got to do is let us know. We've got no problem - we'll go on our way." Three songs later the band walked off.

 
However, sixty minutes later the band did return to the stage after a member of venue staff told the crowd they were “trying hard” to get Rose to agree to return to the stage. The band played on until 1am for their remaining fans.

Guns N’ Roses also recently caused controversy when they declared “war” on the promoters as the band left Reading and Leeds festival stage. Rose turned up an hour late and tried to play through their curfew but their sound was pulled.

When there is a cast change, I shall be writing an article on Doctors. In my first article "Donnaleigh leaves Doctors", I explained that Michelle had been part of the cast for four years and Donnaleigh Bailey needed to move into the real world. The character Michelle Corrigan joined the army. What's in store in this article?

A couple of weeks ago, Dr. Heston Carter had a media circus called upon him. He was set up in a private consultation and didn't like the NHS' ways, this was then recorded and Dr. Heston Carter then had to go to hospital because of stress. One of the nurses named Cassandra liked Heston; however Heston didn't like her back because "it wasn't right". However, it did make Heston's week in the hospital far more pleasant, although it did leave The Mill in shreds.

Another thing which has happened is that Julia Parsons, Practice Manager is getting old. She's been shaking a lot in the recent episodes and the new Doctor may be able to help her out! The actress being Janet Dibley.

Dibley's character is meant to take a different approach to the surgery. Instead of having their ambitions first, they believe that the patients always come first and anyone can talk to her, whilst she will understand. Elaine Cassidy (character's name) was one of the three interviewees alongside Lois Hampton and Harry Fransisco. Dr. Elaine Cassidy had a different approach which was more emotional and personal towards her, but also showed her true colours and why she was a perfect fit for the job.  

The first scene she was in was on Tuesday, 31st August 2010 at her house in Norfolk with Paul Foster who she is in a relationship with. She didn't make a great start at first, being late and talking to patients outside of The Mill. However, the words she used were very personal to her and different, quite clearly putting patients first. Although I cannot leave any hints on what is going to happen, I believe that she is going to make a huge contrast between other members of The Mill.

British boy band Scouting for Girls have offered Nadine Coyle a singing gig with them on the condition she quits Girls Aloud. Nadine Coyle joined Girls Aloud in 2002 after winning reality TV show Popstars: The Rivals. Since then Girls Alous has went on to have twenty consecutive top ten singles, four number ones and two number one albums in the United Kingdom. Since 2009 the group has been on hiatus to pursue solo careers but will reunite later this year to produce a new studio album.

The Scouting for Girls boys, responsible for hits such as She’s So Lovely and This Ain’t A Love Song revealed they found out about Nadine’s possible departure from massively popular Girls Aloud in a gossip magazine. Bassist Greg Churchouse said:

"I was reading Heat magazine and saw Girls Aloud were getting back together but not inviting Nadine, right, back. I thought she could do some work with us. If she wants to join us on the bus for a little tour of the UK, she's more than welcome. After a few days we get a bit smelly. It would be an interesting one as girls keep nice and clean and neat and have showers but we don't care as much for our luxuries. It's more about our necessities."
