Rihanna does not take kindly to public racial slurs...

After Dutch magazine Jackie printed an article about Rihanna, calling her a 'n**** bitch', the singing superstar hit back at Editor Eva Hoeke over Twitter.

Rihanna responded to the article in her usual highly effective, to-the-point style, saying;

"I hope u can read english, because your magazine is a poor representation of the evolution of human rights! I find you disrespectful, and rather desperate!! You ran out of legit, civilized information to print! There are 1000's of Dutch girls who would love to be recognized for their contributions to your country, you could have given them an article. Instead, u paid to print one degrading an entire race! That's your contribution to this world! To encourage segregation, to mislead the future leaders to act in the past! You put two words together with the intent of abasement, that made no sense…"N**** BITCH"?!….Well with all respect, on behalf of my race, here are my two words for you…FUCK YOU!!!"

Wow.

To be fair, if I was Rihanna, I'd be just as angry. Hell, I get almost that angry when someone spells my name wrong, so god knows what I'd have done in her shoes.

After a particularly rubbish 'IT WAS ONLY A JOKE!!!! HA!! ha...ha?' type apology, Eva decided, probably wisely, to quit as Editor of Jackie after everything blew up. Defos the best option, I think!

Kirk and Popey Get Matching Nose Surgery!

Towie's Lauren Pope has just announced on Twitter that she and boyfriend Kirk Norcross have BOTH just had surgery on their noses!

Lauren tweets:
'Some of u prob seen already bt me n Kirk did both go...for nose surgery this wkend n really happy with how well it went!

I had a bump were i walked into a door n used to get filler put in it so now i dont need to, Kirk had it broke.

'Both at home recovering like a pair of plums together with our casts on but got to say ive not had any pain at all just a bit uncomfortable!'

Glad to hear that they both just had little issues to correct, and haven't gone the whole hog and got crazy tiny pinched-up nose jobs! Still, I think it's pretty funny that they went in at the same time, and it's kind of cute, in an Essex-y way.

Oh wait....they got paid to do it, and apparently have loads of magazine deals lined up to show off the surgeon's handywork. Boo.

Kerry Katona says she WASN'T Dropped by CAN!

Kerry Katona has spoken out on Twitter to clear up her departure from CAN associates.

She tweeted...'Contrary to recent press reports, I was not "dumped" by CAN Associates

'It was my decision to leave, as on a professional level my career was taking a direction that I did not want, nor did I feel was appropriate. Furthermore on a personal level, I felt that my integrity had been compromised...

'I have not taken any drugs in the last year and a half - and if anyone claims otherwise, I will sue without hesitation.'

So while Kerry denies being dumped, she does say that she thought her integrity was being compromised. Perhaps the decision not to attend Amy Childs' birthday bash was made in line with this? CAN makes a point of getting all the celebs on its books to be seen as mates, so if this is not really the case, I can see why Kez wouldn't want to pretend like it is. 


Anyway, it's great to hear that Kerry is still drug-free. I was worried for a second there!

Kim Marsh Tells Twitter Critics To Stick It

After the terrible loss of her stillborn son Archie, born at 21 weeks, and the traumatic struggle for the health of her daughter, born early at 33 weeks, Kym Marsh was in no mood to entertain those on twitter who questioned her decision to bottle-feed baby Polly.

Due to the fact of Polly's early birth, Kym has said she cannot breastfeed her daughter as she is not producing enough milk. However, this revelation seems to have provoked a backlash from pro-breastfeeding activists. One tweeted that Kym was choosing "vanity over [her] children" and their health, with one going so far as to suggest that Kym cared more for mintaining the look of her boob job than nurturing her children.
 
Kym hit back at the comments, saying "Shut up you absolute idiot. You know nothing so go be bitter elsewhere!"


She added "I stayed in bed for three months to bring my baby into this world after losing one so do not dare EVER criticise me. For your information you idiot I did breastfeed for as long as I could, I wasn't producing enough for her to come of her iv and was advised by HER consultant to give formula so we could get her off the drip, not that I need to explain myself to u."


After the spat, Kym messaged her supportive followers, saying "Guys getting a bit tired of nasty pieces of work on twitter. So sad they have to hide behind a computer! Questioning my dedication to Polly! Done everything in my power to get my little girl here. Some nasty pieces of work, honestly."

She's right. Only sad cases would criticise her when she has worked so hard to bring a heathy baby into the world. Breast feeding is best if it is possible, but it it really awful to criticise someone for trying their best and not being to do something which is so publicly proclaimed as the ultimate bonding mechanism between mother and child.

Best of luck in bringing up little Polly...I'm sure you'll be amazing!
