Oh dear me:shocked:

I hope everything is alright!!!

[MarkWaldorf]

Oh no.

[Arneldo]

First of all i would take the 'A-list Celeb' bit lightly and by 'pulled out' they never signed up in the first place.

Secondly - If it is true about Davina then i really hope She is okay and glad She is dealing with it. I hope She is okay and back on track for CBB - If not we might have to suffer Mr. Dermot O Leary! Oh God!

:conf2: oh no Aaaaaah!

Panic as celebs quit

by CAMERON MILLAR

CELEBRITY Big Brother bosses were in crisis talks last night after a number of big-name stars pulled out.

Show chiefs thought they had their secret final line-up sorted for the latest series, which starts a week today. But we can reveal several stars got cold feet and others quit in a pay row.

Among them are an actress famous on both sides of the Atlantic for her fabulous figure, an LA It Girl never away from celeb parties and a Brit soap hunk.

A source close to the Channel 4 show and its spin-off Big Brother’s Little Brother, hosted by Dermot O’Leary, 33, said last night: “The producers are panicked.There are just days to go and they are worried they won’t have a full house.There were constant arguments about appearance fees.

“Some egos couldn’t take playing second fiddle and some just had cold feet after being told it could ruin their career it it went wrong.”

Tipped

Celebs set to sign-up includeT he A-Team actor Dirk Benedict, 61, and Starsky and Hutch star Paul Michael Glaser, 63.

Others tipped to appear include former Steps singer Ian “H”Watkins, 30, ex-Labour MP and TV host Robert Kilroy-Silk, 64, and transsexual antiques dealer Lauren Harries, 29.

Former Page 3 girl Jo Guest, 34, is also a possible for the show.

Probably the usual tabloid hype over nothing. The 'LA It Girl' sounds like Tara Reid though.

The Davina story. A 'friend' is quoted.

CRACKERS FOR TV
SAD DAVINA GOES FROM BB TO AA ONLY 7 DAYS TO GO

by MARK JEFFERIES

STRESSED Davina McCall is reportedly going back to Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. She fears her pressured lifestyle could make her turn to drink again. The Big Brother host, 39, has just had a third baby and also had to put up with massive criticism following her flop chat show.

Pressure

Another BBC show, He’s Having A Baby, was also axed from the schedules.

And the pressure, combined with having to kick off Celebrity Big Brother in a week, means she is considering going back to AA sessions.

She confided in a friend: “I’m worried it’s getting too much for me again.

“I’m back at work soon and the temptation to have a drink when I’m stressed could be a problem. “It’s better that I start dealing with things now, rather than getting further down the line.” Davina, who gave birth to son Chester in September, has bravely battled with drink and drug demons in the past but has been clean for almost 15 years.

But the telly star, who has sensibly returned to attend Alcoholics Anonymous at other stressful times, is once again considering taking action.

In the past Davina has admitted to taking cocaine, ecstasy and heroin during her 20s.

She also confessed that she still sometimes needs support meetings for counselling.

She has said: “I because I need to.”

On top of the pressure of her career, Davina is also putting pressure on herself to lose her baby weight in time for the Celebrity Big Brother launch on January 3.

A source revealed: “She’s been working out in the gym three times every week and is cutting out fatty foods. Davina is determined to look fabulous and to wow the critics with the show.”

Last year Davina admitted that although she has been clean for a long time, she feared she could one day be tempted to go back to taking drugs.

Support

The TV star revealed: “If I were to get drunk and someone said: ‘ Do you want a line?’ I can’t guarantee that I would have the wherewithal to say no.”

Fortunately Davina has the strong support of her husband of six years, Matthew Robertson, 39, as well as good friends.

A spokesman for Davina unavailable to comment. If you need help with a drink problem contact Alcoholics Anonymous on 0845 769 7555.
