Seriously? OMG! WTF?

David Gest is planning to move to London when he finishes his stint on reality show I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here. The music mogul and estranged husband of Liza Minnelli is sick of the media attention he gets in America, as opposed to the positive publicity his appearance on the jungle show has attracted in the UK. His bodyguard Imad Handi reveals, "He’s moving to London. He loves the fact that there’s not as much media coverage of him in the US. Once he decides where he wants to live, I’ll get a place nearby." Gest is producing a four-day concert, entitled David Gest’s New Year’s Weekend All-Star Soul Spectacular in London next month (28-31DEC06), which will feature performances from Candi Staton, Martha Reeves + The Vandellas, Bonnie Tyler and Peabo Bryson.

And we are not trading him for Heather Mills…lol

I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ star David Gest has rubbished rumours he is gay. Gest, the ex-husband of Liza Minelli, told jungle mate Scott Henshall he would not be ashamed to admit if he was gay, but insisted he had never had sex with a man. He said: "They said was I straight, was I gay? "I always said, bring me one guy I’ve been with – I’d love to meet him because if I was into it, I’d be proud of it." Openly gay fashion designer Scott had to drink a witchetty grub smoothie and taste a kangaroo tongue yesterday (22.11.06) in the latest Bushtucker Trial. The 31-year-old refused to eat locusts, a kangaroo penis, kangaroo anus and spat out the kangaroo tongue, but did manage to swallow the vile tasting drink, eat a silk worm and munch a disgusting cheese fruit to win three stars for the boys’ team.

I believe him…not

STAFF at a top hotel branded David Gest their worst client ever — after he asked room service for a pint of ZEBRA milk. Gest, 53, was staying at the five star Lanesborough in London with then wife Liza Minnelli. Staff at the hotel, used to looking after royalty and celebrities, expected showbiz legend Liza, 60, to be a diva. But according to a worker at The Lanesborough — where suites can cost £10,000 a night and each guest has a butler — it was I’m A Celebrity star Gest who was the prima donna. He said: “He was an absolute pain. Anyone would think he was world famous, not his wife. He made a string of bizarre requests. It culminated in him ringing the butler bell and demanding room service bring him a pint of fresh, chilled zebra milk. “When he was told we only had cow, goat, sheep and soya he threw a screaming fit. He said we should ring London Zoo to see if they had any.” Head butler at the hotel, Sean Davoren, eventually found a shop which had frozen zebra milk. He said in an interview: “I’m not usually fazed by anything but I thought somebody was taking the mickey here. “Luckily, I remembered a fellow who’d helped me before. Sure enough there was a shop at the top of Regents Park where you could buy the stuff. “It was £15 a pint and the guest had a pint every day.”

Where is PETA when you need them???

I’M A CELEBRITY drama queen David Gest has been given a dressing down after a series of tantrums and rows. Shocked show bosses and fellow stars watched in amazement as the freaky-looking concert promoter… Threw a wobbler after one day because he couldn’t have chocolate and tried to bribe a cameraman £40,000 to get him some treats. Sent TV censors into overdrive by launching a foul-mouthed rant about Lauren Booth, 39. Upset comedienne Faith Brown, 62, by spying on her in the shower and making remarks about her infamous boobs. Gest caused a rumble in the jungle within 24 hours of arriving in the Aussie camp. And his antics appear to confirm producers’ worst nightmares about the ex-husband of Liza Minnelli, 60. The creep, 53, has failed to grasp that it’s a survival series and keeps calling it "a holiday". When he discovered the camp diet consisted of rice and beans, he went nuts. He called out to a crew worker: "How much do you get paid for this show? I will give you £40,000 if you get me three Hershey chocolate bars and deliver them to me here tomorrow." His pleas fell on deaf ears before he launched into a bitching session with Toby Anstis, 37, telling the DJ he was still smarting from the comments Lauren made before the show. She said: "I can’t believe David Gest is going in. Is that for real? He’s scarier than Michael Jackson." Gest told Toby: "That Lauren is a f***ing c***. You should have heard what she said about me." TV censors then leapt in to bleep out Gest’s rant. Later he upset Faith after spotting her taking a shower. In front of her, he said to Jason Donovan, 38, Matt Willis, 23, and Toby: "You could breast-feed all of us. We would all have milk." But the comedienne failed to see the funny side. She raged in the Bush Telegraph: "I’m no prude but I don’t like that." After getting a dressing down in the Bush Telegraph, Gest seemed to settle in and even volunteered to clean the loo.

Seriously, how did Liza stay with him as long as she did? He is just so gross, in every sense of the word. 

Jason Donovan, Liza Minelli’s ex-husband David Gest and Cherie Blair’s half sister Lauren Booth are starring in the sixth series of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here – and the former Neighbours star is favourite to win. The names heading into the Australian jungle include former Busted star Matt Willis and ex-Hear’Say singer Myleene Klass. The others are Heart FM DJ and TV presenter Toby Anstis, comedienne and impersonator Faith Brown, fashion designer Scott Henshall, former news reader Jan Leeming and Footballers’ Wives and The Bill actress Phina Oruche. Gest, 48, whose union to Minnelli is yet to officially end due to a lengthy divorce battle, confessed that he had not done the dishes in 25 years and asked: "How am I gonna cope without a maid?" He said he is considering returning to his singing career when he leaves the jungle. The show’s Executive producer Richard Cowles promised that there would be big surprises in store. He said: "The celebrities have always felt that the one thing they had on their side in camp was each other – but this year there won’t necessarily be safety in numbers. "There is one big, never before seen surprise for the celebrities and whether it’s a welcome one remains to be seen. With a few twists as well as some of the best Bushtucker trials seen yet, the celebrities certainly have a challenge ahead. We are really excited to see how things unfold." The new series begins next Monday at 9pm.
