Celebcity: Duffy’s pulled, Ken Livingstone’s election ready and the X Factor jamboree rolls into town
Duffy
She may be number one in the charts – both single and album, but hot new Welsh singer Duffy still has her feet firmly on the ground. She was spotted before her Brighton gig last Monday at the Komedia lugging her own suitcase in the North Laine. She didn’t even beg for ‘Mercy‘.
Nicki has X-cellent taste
I popped along to the Brighton Centre and caught the full spectacle that is X Factor Live. My four–year–old son has a rather big obsession with Rhyddian and Leon – so how could a mother deny him a ticket? Pretty much all of the singers said on stage how much they loved our city – especially ex-dinner lady Nicki, who I think we might see a bit more of around our streets.



Our very own pin-up girl Jordan is really hitting a high – this time in her own private jet. The Brighton born 29-year-old is apparently in the process of buying a Hawker 900 for £4.5million. The model also plans to have the whole thing painted pink with a matching pink interior. Jordan – who now has a home in Cyprus with hubby Peter Andre – has decided to splash out on the jet when she realised that flights for the couple, their three children and nannies would cost more than £150,000 this year.
Things are starting to hot up as more and more announcements are made for this year’s Fringe Festival. Also back – bigger, better and by popular demand – is the Udderbelly, which will be grazing again on Steine Gardens.
