A historic day, then, as Rav Singh finally limps away from the News Of The World, being replaced by - oh, lord - Celeb XS with Dan Wootton . No, they really have called it Celeb XS, like some sort of teen-aimed deodorant. Dan, of course, can't help marking this historic occasion with a welcoming blog entry: Hi, and thanks for coming to check out Celeb XS.. I hope you like it! Every day I'll be updating this blog with the best celebrity stories from all over the world. If it happens, it'll [...]

There's only one thing wrong with Rav Singh's tales of Amy Winehouse making candy floss with cocaine in it , and that would be that it probably has no truth in it at all. What is notable, though, is that the News Of The World website has apparently been infiltrated by communists, as comments made this month are being dated from "Oktober".

Rav Singh might think that getting the Sugababes to guest-edit his column shows off how famous his chums are; it does rather leave the impression, though, that anyone could do what he does. The other problem of having the people you're meant to be writing about actually doing the editing is that it draws the sting of the column more than a little. If you're a waspish horsefly hovering over the world of showbiz reporting on the secrets that the stars want hidden, how do you do that when the stars are hovering over you? [...]

Ah, the worries about Rav Singh's apparent vanishing from the News of the World's website navigation can be calmed; this week, they've given him a giant clickable box right on the front page, leading to exciting news that you won't read anywhere else like, erm, Eminem making a new album . To be fair to Rav, though, he does come up with a fresh new angle for the comeback story: The 8 Mile actor has teamed up with fellow hip hop rhymesayer 50 CENT in the studio. I'm told the pair have been spending hour [...]

The News of the World has found space alongside the grovelling apology to the McCanns for printing chunks of Kate McCann's diary somehow assuming that she'd given permission to be slathered all over the paper to carry the, erm, important news that Natalie Imbruglia's gone blonde . Actually, I say "found space", but given the apology is buried deeply in the website's news section and harder to find than even the dwindling Rav Singh section, that might be over stating the effort put in to the job. It's still more effort than Rav is putting [...]

He's not finished up yet, but clearly Rav Singh has taken off his hat - two of the top four stories on his kind-of blog aren't even by him today. He - or rather someone else - has got an "exclusive" new video of the moment Noel Gallagher reaped what he's been sowing all these years. The video doesn't really add much to the story, and nor does the Rav-lite Guy Basnett commentary. The video, we're told is "shocking" - although since we've all seen Noel going over, it's not that shocking: [...]

In a move that is almost certainly not going to be connected with the way his column has been buried so deeply in the News of the World website that you're more likely to find a 404 page than his bit, Rav Singh has quit the paper : "I have had the best years of my life working at the News of the World but all great things come to an end. "I am keen to try something new and I have big plans which I can't wait to get working on. [...]

Rav Singh isn't going to let Gordon Smart have Liam all to himself. Oh, no: Rav admires Liam, too : LIAM GALLAGHER makes me laugh. And that's so important, don't you think? But how, Rav, how does Liam make you laugh? Tickling? Putting two Wotsits in his mouth and pretending to be vampire? Oh, no: it turns out it's with his wit : He's been ranting about WAYNE ROONEY's £5million wedding to COLEEN McLOUGHLIN —by bragging his own ceremony cost just £18. He said: [...]

Last week, the Sunday Mirror redesign buried Showbiz Zoe deep into the site; this week, it's Rav who finds himself not-very-subtly downplayed in the new News of the World layout. Mind you, as he's punting a story claiming that Paul McCartney has asked Stella how she'd feel if he took Nancy Shevell as "the third Mrs. Macca". He used those exact words, too. Worse, though: At the foot of the article Rav drops this: Visit my pal Perez Hilton's great website. But be warned: It's outrageous! Rav's "pal" Perez [...]

Rav Singh perhaps oversells the chances of a Destiny's Child reunion a little: Beyonce's getting back with Destiny's Child DESTINY'S CHILD are planning a Bootilicious comeback next year, I can exclusively reveal. The R&B trio—KELLY ROWLAND, BEYONCE KNOWLES and MICHELLE WILLIAMS —want to reform and record some hotter-than-ever tracks. Really? Well, not quite - Kelly Rowland muttered something to him about a vague possibility that they might work together next year: "Me and the girls never split up—we are as close as we [...]

We're not going to pass comment on Rav Singh's Kylie piece this morning . We think the commentary writes itself. Especially since it looks like the article did: Kylie's an X Red Cap! By Rav Singh KYLIE MINOGUE shows off some sexy manoeuvres wearing a daring red Army outfit. The pop princess certainly got my, er, Attention, in a 'uniform' that was slashed to the thigh—well she was kicking off the English leg of her X tour. Oh yes, I was Spinning Around when she put on that number [...]
