The show WILL go on for American Idol finalist Casey Abrams despite emergency visit to hospital for stomach pains

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Finalist: Casey Abrams was hospitalised with stomach pains after being selected for the last 24


He was over the moon to be selected in the judges top 24 on last night's edition of American Idol.

But it looked as if contestant Casey Abrams' dream might be over before it began when he was hospitalised on Wednesday.

According to TMZ, Casey was taken for medical treatment after complaining of severe stomach pains.

However, the wannabe star was today released from hospital and was expected to take to the stage today to tape his slot in the final 12 men's performances, People have reported.

'He is performing tonight,' a source told the website. 'He had some stomach pains but he will perform.'

The 19-year-old from has impressed judges Steven Tyler, Jennifer Lopez and Randy Jackson with his musical talents - he also plays the double bass.


Good news: Casey was one of the first contestants to be told he was through to the final 24


Jumping for joy: Casey was so excited to be told the good news, he knocked over his chair


''I'm here to prove that people like me can be sexy,' Casey told the judges, before launching into classic blues track Why Don't You Do Right?

'I don't we've ever seen a musician as talented as yourself,' Randy told him on Thursday's episode. 'It's like three people in one'

Abrams, who hails from Idyllwild, California would have possibly had to sacrifice his place in the top 24 if he had failed to take part in today's performances.

The ITV2 show stars have been busy all day filming a promo for the new series at the county's notorious Faces nightclub in Gants Hill - and it's said to be a Glee-style music video.

The title of the song they're covering is being kept tightly under wraps however, nor is it known if show band Lola are making an appearance.

'The Bachelor' Sends Home Shawntel, Takes Trip to Africa

Funeral director Shawntel Newton probably scares "The Bachelor" Brad Womack off with her family's business. The 25-year-old was sent home after the hometown visit where Shwantel gives him a tour in the parlor and tells him that she embalms dead people.

Shawntel has admitted in the past two episodes that she is falling in love with Brad and definitely sees a husband figure in him. Brad however didn't seem too comfortable when he finds out that Shawntel is really into her job and her dad intends to hand over the business to her, meaning Shawntel may have to stay in Chico.

After the rose ceremony, Brad sat Shawntel down and told her how much he cared for her. But he didn't feel right when she told him she was falling for him. Shawntel cried in the limo and said her final words, "I'll miss him."

The three remaining girls, Chantal, Emily and Ashley will next week go to South Africa for a trip in the wilderness. "I'm feeling the romance," Brad said in the preview which also teases the moment Emily confronts Brad about her five-year-old son.

'Gossip Girl' 4.17 Preview: Dair Is Happening

Next on "Gossip Girl", Ben's mother comes to town, forcing issues to the surface between Ben and Serena. Russell Thorpe is determined to destroy Chuck's family legacy, but he risks alienating his daughter, Raina, in the process.

But this episode is focused largely on Blair's romantic life. The last time viewers saw of "Dair", Blair let her guards down in time of crisis and Dan came out a hero for her. Next week, Blair is faced with the fact that she is having a relationship with the "lonely boy" from Brooklyn, just right on time when Chuck would like to have 'a word' with her.

"I like that friendship," Leighton Meester talked about Blair and Dan to MTV earlier this year. "I can't tell you [what's going to happen]. I don't know, I like working with Penn [Badgley], and so that's been very fun. And I think they're good for each other in a lot of ways, in a way that Chuck and Blair aren't."

Moreover, Zap2It previously reported that somebody else in Blair's life will return. Hugo Becker will be reprising his role as Prince Louis after the show's six-week's hiatus. Louis is the guy who bonded with Blair while in Paris and whom she left for distance reason.

"Empire of the Son" airs February 28 and the show will return after 6 weeks.

Report: Simon Cowell and Cheryl Cole Leave U.K. 'X Factor'

The judges have allegedly announced their departure to ITV because they feel they won't have enough time to juggle both the U.K. and U.S. versions.

Simon Cowell is really channeling all his energy to the American version of "The X Factor". The music mogul has reportedly informed ITV of his resignation as the judge on the U.K. show, effective from the upcoming season. "The X Factor (US)" will premiere in September this year.


Cowell allegedly told ITV chief Peter Fincham, "I'm committed to the American show and I'm not going to do both." And Cowell won't be the only one because Cheryl Cole, who is reportedly on Cowell's list as his partner for the U.S. version, is also making an exit.

A source told News of the World that the network is concerned about the departure of these two, saying "There will be massive shake-up. Simon is a huge, huge loss. He gives the judging panel such authority and there are big fears that millions will switch off without him. And two million extra viewers tuned in when Cheryl joined the panel. To lose her as well is a nightmare."

Furthermore, ITV is making sure that Dannii Minogue and Louis Walsh will not follow the same route by cranking up their salaries up to BPS1.2 million. Also, the network has been looking for a replacement, and two names which have popped up on their list are Robbie Williams and Adele.

'Desperate Housewives' 7.16 Preview: Searching

Susan learns that her dialysis isn't working and that, if she doesn't receive a kidney transplant soon, she will die.

Again, Susan gets the biggest spotlight in the next episode of "Desperate Housewives" with her medical condition. Susan vows to get the most out of life when she learns that her dialysis isn't working and that, unless she receives a kidney transplant soon, she will die.

"We have that conversation where the doctor says, 'We're trying to find you a kidney but if there's anything you really want to do, do it now'," James Denton who plays Mike said. "They try not to panic but make a little bucket list and live a little more, which is fun. You can only have so much of drug addictions, comas and hit-and-runs."

Meanwhile, Bree makes it her mission to find a kidney donor for Susan. "I thought they solved it very well," Denton continued, referring to the writers. "I've been wondering how they were going to find somebody interesting to donate the kidney, because clearly they're not going to let Susan die. So yeah, they found a nice, dark, interesting way to come up with a kidney!"

Also in the episode, jealous of Lee and Bob's adopted daughter's routine for an upcoming school talent show, Gaby pressures Juanita to come up with a number that will outshine everyone; Lynette puts a plan into action to discourage a clearly non-maternal Renee from adopting a baby; and Beth Young struggles to figure out what to do with her life after Paul kicks her out of the house.

"Searching" airs in two weeks, March 6.

Jeff Brazier quashes Kerry Katona romance rumours... by going public with his secret nine-month relationship

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Commited: The father-of-two has been dating fashion buyer Claire Springett for nine months


Throughout this season of Dancing On Ice, speculation has been rife about a romance between Kerry Katona and Jeff Brazier.

But father-of-two Jeff has rubbished the rumours today by making a bombshell announcement - he has happily been in a relationship for nine months.

Jade Goody's ex has been dating fashion buyer Claire Springett secretly, but felt compelled to come clean about the romance 'out of respect' for his girlfriend after whispers of a flirtation between him and Kerry heated up.


Bombshell: Jeff Brazier has rubbished rumours he is romancing fellow Dancing On Ice contestant Kerry Katona by revealing he is in a relationship


The 31-year-old has revealed that the relationship with Claire, 33, is so serious that she has no moved into his Essex home with him and his boys.

Speaking to the Sunday Mirror, Jeff says: 'For anyone to find their way into a ­relationship with me, the first thing I’m looking at is their ­compatibility with my kids.

'Claire has passed that test – and then some.'
Brazier has two sons - Bobby, seven, and Freddy, six, with reality star Jade Goody, who passed away after her battle with cervical cancer on Mother's Day 2009.


Family: Brazier says anyone he dates must get on well with his sons Bobby and Freddy, and that 'Claire has passed that test – and then some'


No romance: Jeff's revelation has poured cold water over rumours of a romance with Kerry Katona


Jeff tells the paper that he and Claire, who were introduced by her younger brother Andrew, intend to remain primarily out of the spotlight.

'Relationships can be tough at the best of times and it’s even ­harder in the ­public eye,' he said.

'I haven’t taken Claire to any public events ­because I realise I would be saying, "Here you are – here’s my girlfriend" and the ­questions would start.

Before he made the decision to talk openly about his new love, Jeff enjoyed a low-key relationship with the attractive blonde fashionista where they went to the movies with the boys and pub nights with mates.


Tragic: The boys' mother. Jade Goody, passed away in 2009 after a battle with cervical cancer


Exhausting: He says his hectic Dancing On Ice schedule has left him beat
And with his exhausting Dancing On Ice schedule, that's all he appears to be able to muster the energy for.


Brazier says that he often falls asleep during story time as he is putting the boys to bed, after spending all day in rehearsals with skating partner Isabella Gauthier.

'Being so tired all the time isn’t great, but it hasn’t really put too much strain on things at home,' he says.

'At least the skating is all done in school hours, and Claire is far too supportive a person for it to be a problem with her.'

Kerry Katona slammed for 'extinct' skating skills as she is voted off Dancing On Ice

By GEORGINA LITTLEJOHN

Emotional: Kerry Katona choked back tears as she thanked everyone on the show after she partner Dan Whiston were voted off Dancing On Ice tonight


She had already resigned herself that she would be leaving the show tonight.

And it would appear the writing was already on the wall for Kerry Katona after she was voted off Dancing On Ice tonight.

But despite her insistence that it was 'only a TV show', the reality star choked back tears as she said her goodbyes.


Not enough: Kerry and Daniel were voted off after performing a routine to the Pussycat Dolls song Hush Hush


Wiping her eyes, she told host Phillip Schofield: 'It's been more than a skating competition. I want to thank the public for voting, my kids are proud, massive thank you for Daniel for his patience.'

Kerry's partner Dan Whiston then praised her and said: 'It's been a journey, Kerry's been a brilliant friend and to me, Kerry's my winner.'

Kerry and Dan faced Jeff Brazier and his partner Isabelle Gauthier, and re-performed their routine to the Pussycat Dolls song Hush Hush.

But it wasn't enough to keep them in, although the outcome to some seemed almost predictable after the scathing comments the pair received after their first time on the ice tonight.

After being given a score of just nine - their lowest on the show - Kerry tried to put on a brave face and joked about having already booked a holiday and said: 'It's only a TV show and I'm having a great time.'

But judge Emma Bunton told her: 'I was quite surprised that you were so relaxed. After being in the bottom, in your head you're already on that plane.'


Lowest score: The judges only gave Kerry and Dan nine points


Robin Cousins added: 'It's been a tough struggle for you which you you have admitted, but it feels like the past couple of weeks you've given in to that'
But the most scathing comments came courtesy of Kerry's biggest critic Jason Gardiner, who, true to form, didn't hold back.

He said: 'What tonight proves, Kerry, is that, unequivocally, your skating ability is on the endangered species list because it's virtually extinct.



In unison: Chloe Madeley and Michael Zenezini were awarded 18.5 by the judges, who said she needed to show more 'personality'


'You've given up on yourself and that's a shame. You've been skating for three months and I have to question what you've been doing all this time.'

This week not only proved to be a tough one for Kerry, but for all the contestant as they were underwent the ultimate skills test with performers having to include three skills - a step, a jump and a spin.

As usual, the skaters' mentors Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean opened the show, performing an elegant routine as Rumer sang Burt Bacharach's What The World Needs Now.


That's our girl! Judy Finnegan and Richard Madeley cheer on their daughter Chloe


The first celebrity up was Chloe Madeley and her partner Michael Zenezini, who both glittered in their black sparkly outfits.

Cheered by her famous parents Judy Finnegan and Richard Madeley, they performed to the Annie Lennox song Little Bird and received a score of 18.5.

Emma Bunton praised her for not shying away from 'difficulty in routines' and said she was pleased to see her push it every week.


Improvement: Johnson Beharry was told that he had 'upped his ante' this week


Jason Gardiner said their steps sequence was 'in unison' but added that he wanted Chloe to come back with 'personality'.

Johnson Beharry VC and his partner Jodeyne Higgins, who narrowly avoided being in the skate-off, were up next, skating to She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5.

But they only managed a score of 14.5, although the judges were in agreement that Johnson was improving each week.


Top of the table: Laura Hamilton and Colin Ratushniak impressed the judges yet again this week with their flawless performance


Impressed: All three judges gave Laura and Colin 8.5 which took them to the top of the leaderboard


Gardiner told him that he was 'upping your ante', while Cousins said: 'It's been a slow and methodical process and if that's how you work then it is paying off.'

The golden couple, who can do no wrong in everyone's eyes were up next and Laura Hamilton and Colin Ratusniak showed no signs of slipping as they topped the leaderboard once again with an impressive performance to Stop by Sam Brown, which earned them a score of 25.5.

Bunton told Laura: 'I wanted you to relax and could feel those nerves but you are an unbelievable performer', while Gardiner added: 'I'm a huge fan and tonight is no exception. You just seemed to flow through all of it.'


Messy: Jason Gardiner told Jeff Brazier and Isabelle Gauthier their routine was displaced


Jeff Brazier and his partner Isabelle Gauthier, who avoided being sent home this evening, scored 16 after a routine to Cee Lo Green's Forget You.

Bunton told them: 'If you keep working this hard you will make this competition very interesting.'

Gardiner added: 'There's no question you have improved, however, you were putting in a lot of effort but it was very messy, it was sort of displaced.'


Serene: All three judges told Denise Welch and Matt Evers that their routine had a 'natural calmness'


Actress Denise Welch - whose fans in the audience included her husband Tim Healy and her fellow Loose Woman Colleen Nolan - was up next with partner Matt Evers, as they performed a routine to Cyndi Lauper's True Colours.

Receiving 16.5, the couple's highest score, she said: 'I'm totally gobsmacked by that. Absolutely thrilled to get those scores.'

And Gardiner added: 'I am incredibly proud of you, tonight it is about what you can do and what you have proven and what you have done is quality over quantity, you did exactly what was required.'


Come on, Denise! Welch's fanbase - including (L-R) Keith Lemon, Colleen Nolan and Denise's husband Tim Healy, cheered her on from the audience


Then it was the moment that left the audience, judges and viewers with their hearts in their mouths as Sam Attwater and Brianne Delcourt came on to perform the Headbanger move as part of their routine.

The move, which requires the male partner to spin his female around and around just above the ice, had never been performed by a non-professional skater on the show.

But Sam held his nerve as the pair pulled it off flawlessly, earning them a 24.5 score, and Bunton telling him she couldn't' believe she was 'seeing somebody who is not a professional'.


One wrong move: Sam concentrated hard as he spun Brianne fast in the air round the ice


After Kerry and Dan performed next, the show was warpped up by Vanilla Ice and his partner Katie Stainsby, who performed to his number one song, Ice Ice Baby.

They received 22.5, their highest score so far, which Cousins said was the 'best overall performance of the night and a great way to finish off the show'.

Tyra Banks Spoofs Typical Models on 'ANTM'

To promote the new cycle of 'America's Next Top Model', the host acts like a Valley girl, a model with attitude and a goth.


Promoting the 16th cycle of "America's Next Top Model", Tyra Banks steps up the game by releasing a video where she's typical contestants trying out for the show. She begins with giggly blonde girl who loves Hello Kitty as a designer and would do "anything" to be America's next top model except cut the hair.

The second girl Tyra portrays is model with attitude. "I'm not here to make friends," says the typical model number two. She has a tattoo of her name which makes up ANTM when abbreviated. The last girl is a goth model who pretends she doesn't want to be on the show. "I'm not a cookie cutter, I cut the cookies," goth girl says.

The 16th cycle will premiere February 23 on The CW. Several changes have been made including skipping the casting week and slipping a prank for the contestants. Guest judges are fashion designer Lana Marks, model and stylist Erin Wasson, Rachel Zoe and model and actress Alek Wek.

Previews: 'Smallville' Goes 'Hangover', 'Supernatural' Goes Meta

Clark, Chloe and the rest of the 'Smallville' gang don't remember what happen in Las Vegas while Sam and Dean are thrown in a world where they're recognized as Jared and Jensen.

Next week, "Smallville" will be taking the same route as hit movie "The Hangover". After Zatanna sends a magically spiked bottle of champagne to Clark and Lois for their bachelor/bachlorette parties, the gang blacks out after the toast, only to wake up the next morning and realize they can't remember anything about the night before.

While trying to retrace their steps, Lois realizes she lost her engagement ring and drags Oliver back to the Fortune Casino where she thinks she lost it... The two run into Fortune (guest star James Kidnie), the eccentric casino owner, who accuses them of stealing money from him. Meanwhile, Clark tells Chloe he has a memory of stealing an armored truck the night before.

"It's our fun Hangover episode," said executive producer Brian Peterson. "Clark won't remember what happened the night before." Erica Durance added, "We all wake up in different places in bizarre situations involving weird outfits and animals."

But "Smallville" is not the only one presenting a unique episode. Its Friday companion, "Supernatural" would do a super-meta episode where the line between fiction and reality is blurred. Sam and Dean are transported to a parallel world where they are mistaken for two actors named Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, who star in a TV series called 'Supernatural', which is about two brothers who hunt monsters for a living.

Both "Fortune" and "The French Mistake" would air on February 25 at 8 and 9 P.M. respectively.

Jacee and his group, Brett Loewenstern, Denise Jackson, Stevie Cain and Natalie Hanson, all made it through.

'Two and a Half Men' Resumes Filming February 28

However, they would only shoot four more episodes, which is 4 fewer episodes than what was originally promised to the network.

Charlie Sheen has the chance to return to work later this month - bosses of his hit comedy "Two and a Half Men" are preparing to resume filming, according to a U.S. report. Work on the show was suspended while the actor had rehab treatment at home in Los Angeles after he was hospitalized in January following a night of wild partying.

He has since said he is desperate to get back on set - and bosses of the CBS show are now planning to restart production on February 28, according to the Hollywood Reporter. But the shooting schedule has been pared back - the website reports only four further episodes will be made for the current season instead of the planned eight.

Jennifer Hudson has finally shared 'her magic number' - the amount of weight she has lost since embarking on her weight loss journey.

The 29-year-old singer revealed on The Oprah Winfrey show today that she has dropped a whopping 80lbs from her frame - and feels better than she ever has.

The Weight Watchers spokeswoman said: 'It's like a brand new me. Sometimes I don't even recognise myself!'

The Chicago native is also giving back and has taken everything she has learned and passed it on to several family members who have also slimmed down with her.

Collectively her relatives have lost a massive 1,935 pounds which she said was a great motivation in her continuing to lose inches too.

The new mother to baby David Jr also shared her weight loss tips with the audience.
She said she prepares all of her own food and does a variety of exercises to mix things up including running on the treadmill and jumping rope.

Strictly one of the boys: Kara Tointon hangs out with Artem and fellow dancers James Jordan and Jared Murillo on tour

By GEORGINA LITTLEJOHN

Lads - and Kara's - day out: Miss Tointon joined boyfriend Artem Chigvintsev and other Strictly dancers James Jordan and Jordan Murillo for lunch in Manchester yesterday


She is one of the most glamorous contestants of Strictly Come Dancing whose sex appeal and sultry dancing won the competition.

But Kara Tointon proved that she can also be one of the boys as she spent yesterday hanging out with the Strictly Come Dancing lads.

The actress was snapped in Manchester ahead of the BBC One show's date at the city's Evening News Arena which takes place tonight.

Yesterday, during a break in rehearsals, Kara, 27, left the Lowry Hotel, where contestants and their dancing partners are staying, for some food.

But she didn't indulge in a girls' lunch with her fellow female dancers, but decided to hang out with the lads instead.

With boyfriend and dance partner Artem Chigvintsev, the couple were joined by dancers James Jordan and Jared Murillo as they headed out for a bite to eat.


Catching up: While Artem chatted to Jared, Kara and James checked their emails and text messages


The four were snapped waiting to cross the road as they left the hotel and headed into the city.

And in a sign of the times, all four of them clutched mobile phones as they checked their emails and texts sent to them during their rehearsals.

After lunch, they all hit the shops to indulge in some retail therapy and spend their hard-earned Strictly dosh.


Checking in: Kara catches up on her friends, family and possibly agent as she takes a break from Strictly rehearsals


But while James and Jared didn't seem to mind traipsing round the shops, Artem, who has been dating Kara since they were paired together for the BBC show last year, looked bored.

He was snapped propping himself up by a cashier's till looking completely fed up as Kara chatted to the sales assistant.

The four are part of the Strictly tour which is almost at an end after kicking off in Nottingham last month.

After tonight's Manchester date, the tour will wrap up with six dates at the Glasgow SECC.
