Several days ago a Twitter user tweeted footballer Rio Ferdinand (brother of Anton) and called fellow player Ashley Cole a “choc ice” and a “sell out”. Why? Cole appeared in court last week and defended his “good friend” and Chelsea team-mate John Terry during his racism trial. Terry had been accused of calling QPR player Anton Ferdinand a “f**king black c*nt” during a match in October 2011. He admitted to shouting the words but was cleared of racially abusing Ferdinand.

The offensive term was used during a report by ITV News reporter Richard Pallot on the racism in football summit at Downing Street on Wednesday.

So today I am sitting on the train minding my own business when I spot the red light on my Blackberry flashing. A new email had arrived.

Read the email below. I will spare the gentleman the embarrassment by opting to not include his name and company details (which […]

Celebrity gossip magazine NOW has voted N-Dubz star and X-Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos ‘Woman Of The Year”. Showbiz correspondent and professional brown noser Dan Wootton presented her with the award. What exactly has she done to deserve this accolade? Did they give this award to Tulisa because she keeps making her X-Factor winning group Little Mix “goat curry” and “peas and rice”? This is just comical. NOW Magazine is a joke.

It’s put everything in perspective. I have a different respect now for people who don’t have legs. [Thanks Blockett] Singer Jessie J tells Q Magazine that after breaking her ankle during a performance and having to hobble around wearing a cast, that she now understands the struggles people face who have no legs. She then goes on to question her role with her fans. People think you go to a special hospital, get special casts and treatment. It’s a lie – I’m the […]
