Here’s what the stars have been up to in the last seven days
VICTORIA’S SECRET
We’ve always wondered what was behind 49-year-old Victoria Beckham’s wrinkle-free face and now the star has unveiled her secret. Victoria took to an Instagram video to explain that she’d recently undergone skin resurfacing at Los Angeles’ Ghavami Plastic Surgery clinic. Speaking of Victoria’s nonsurgical treatment, clinic owner Dr Ghavami told the star, ‘We’re not only looking at turning the clock back, we’re stopping it now. So you’re literally not going to age any more, and you’re set.’ To which mum-of-four Vic replied, ‘How good does that sound? Wow.’ Sounds ideal, but with prices starting at around £2,000, we might need to save up a little first…
BGT
The latest series of Britain’s Got Talent has kicked off with its usual excitement but while its stars are chummy in front of the camera, it seems tension could be brewing behind the scenes. And there’s one judge in particular who seems to be at the centre of it all – and that’s newcomer Bruno Tonioli, 67.
Amid speculation that they don’t see eye-to-eye, Amanda Holden, 52, has already revealed that Bruno has ‘broken all the rules’ on the show, while Alesha Dixon, 44, branded him ‘absolutely exhausting’ – but now it seems that hosts Ant and Dec have also risked sparking a feud with the former Strictly judge. Dec, 47, revealed, ‘We, quite mischievously, kept telling him different rules. So when he hit his golden buzzer on the first session of the first day, midway through an act, we told him not to worry because he had another golden buzzer tomorrow, and that he had one every day!’
Ant and Dec’s pranks haven’t stopped there, as it seems they’ve also annoyed show boss Simon Cowell, 63. Dec explained, ‘We also played a prank on the rest of the judges by going into their room and doing a BGT quiz, but secretly gave Bruno all the answers in advance. That was quite fun to see the look on everyone else’s face.’ He continued, ‘Much to Simon’s annoyance that somebody else would win a quiz about his show. He quickly worked out it was a prank and didn’t like it! But we loved it.’
It’s not the first time we’ve heard about friction between the stars of the show this year, as fellow judges Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon were reported not to be happy about the newest signing taking home the same pay as them. So while they’re all smiles on screen, is it really happily families when the cameras stop rolling?
