A LEO Sayer walked out of Celebrity Big Brother today just hours before he was expected to get the push after a row over PANTS. The Seventies pop star was facing eviction tonight and favourite to get the boot but quit the show rather than face the public’s vote. Curly-haired Leo, 58, escaped the house by battering down a door with a shovel. He is the third housemate to quit, after wannabe rocker Donny Tourette and film-maker Ken Russell walked last week. Leo had been nominated for eviction along with journalist Carole Malone and The A-Team star Dirk Benedict. The housemates commented on his departure: "Oh well, another one bites the dust." A spokeswoman for the Channel 4 show said: "Big Brother can confirm that Leo has left the Celebrity Big Brother house. "The housemates have been told that he will not be returning to the house. "Leo’s voting line has now been closed. Viewers can still vote to evict either Dirk or Carole in tonight’s show."
Britney Spears’ scrounging ex Kevin Federline is attempting to return some of the clothing that his wife bought for him. Backing dancer Federline, who is known for his high octane lifestyle, is now broke after his multi millionaire pop star wife filed for divorced late last year. Federline tried to return around $15,000 worth of Japanese designer clothes his wife bought him. One of the items he tried to return was a jacket, which cost $1620. Despite the clothing still having their labels intact, the LA boutique refused to give Federline cash , but settled on store credit. It is rumoured that Federline is attempting to get some ‘pocket money’ by selling the credit he received in exchange for the clothes. Some money should be coming to skanky Federline’s account soon though. He will be appearing in an advert for the US Superbowl, which should keep his wardrobe firmly stocked up….
Troubled Paul McCartney has claimed that he is ‘through with women’ after his turbulent and vocal divorce with Heather Mills. The ex model/porn star is demanding a cool 50 million in a recent divorce settlement and has accused the ex Beatles singer of domestic violence. Shattered McCartney (64) got away from the media frenzy by going on holiday to Jamaica. He takes with him his three year old daughter Beatrice, who he fathered with Mills, and two other family members. McCartney has rented a five bedroom villa in a resort which he frequently visited with his beloved wife Linda, who died of cancer on 1998. Fellow holiday makers reported that the musician looked ‘tired’ and ‘drawn’ but seemed to be enjoying sailing and spending quality time with his small daughter.

Here’s one real-life tragedy that did not need to be "ripped from the headlines." The story of slain actress Adrienne Shelly – an independent film star who once appeared as a guest star on an episode of "Law & Order" in 2000 – will be fictionalized in an upcoming, sources said yesterday. Shelly was beaten to death and hanged from a shower rod in her Greenwich Village apartment last Nov. 1, allegedly by an illegal-immigrant construction worker with whom she had argued. Now the NBC drama has put out a casting announcement seeking a Hispanic man to play a murderer who kills a woman after a dispute. The casting notice calls for a male Hispanic between the ages of 19 to 24 to play an illegal immigrant named José Contreras who argues with a Manhattan woman named Erin Garrett. She falls, hits her head and is knocked unconscious. Thinking he may have killed her, Contreras tries to cover up the incident by making it look like the woman hanged herself – and actually murders her in the process. Given the drama’s rapid-fire production schedule, the episode, called "The Melting Pot," could hit the air as early as next month. The actor would play a character modeled after Diego Pillco, an Ecuadorean national who had been doing work inside an apartment below Shelly’s at 15 Abingdon Square. In real life, Pillco is accused of having killed Shelly, 40, moments after a heated argument over noise and after she had called him a "son of a bitch." Police said he confessed to killing Shelly and making it appear as if she had hanged herself in her bathroom. NBC officials defended the show as fiction, and declined to offer more details. Shelly’s last film, "Waitress," is scheduled to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival this month.
