That, joy of joys, Abbey Clancy is bringing Peter Crouch's son into the world. She went for lunch after her 12-week scan with "celebrity crimper James Brown" in a very low key Strada eatery... The Sun reports: "Abbey showed off a copy of the scan to James, 40, as they sat in the window of the crowded restaurant. She even left it on show on the table as she told how her tiny waist was already growing and her jeans were getting tight. She joked about buying 'millions' of babygros. As she stood in the doorway ready to leave, an older woman approached her and asked if she was Abbey Clancy. The WAG replied 'Yes' - then grinned as she added loudly: 'I'm having a baby! I just had my 12-week scan'"... As if further evidence were required, a fellow diner added: "Abbey said she asked if a nurse could see a willy and she said she thought she could. Abbey also said she liked the name Johnny"... Well, that might provide a more concrete explanation as to why she didn't dump Peter after she learned about the Algerian hooker a few weeks back. Which in turn might explain her choice of baby name (a handy reminder, perhaps)... That Simon Bird of Inbetweeners fame said "Apparently, Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand want parts in the show (possibly after they saw the episode in which Joe Thomas's character was relieved by a blonde girl at a teenage disco). And Amanda Holden told us she wants to play a sexy English teacher in the next series"... That, of appearing on Gossip Girl alongside Taylor Momsen, Project Runway's Tim Gunn said: ""What a diva! She was pathetic, she couldn't remember her lines, and she didn't even have that many. I thought to myself, 'Why are we all being held hostage by this brat?' I'd say, 'You know young lady, there are hundreds of thousands of girls who are just as attractive and even smarter than you. Why are you acting like this show is a huge burden on you?' She was on her phone during every break, I wanted to tell her, 'If you weren't on your BlackBerry, you can retain this stuff'"... That you can see photos from New York Fashion Week, nipple slips 'n all, in Caught Out... That Miley Cyrus has notched up her transition into Lindsay Lohan up a gear; she keeps getting tickets for talking on her mobile while driving... That Lindsay has swapped her hired "stroller-unfriendly" Maserati for a white Porsche Cayman S... That Chantelle and Preston are on track to become the new Jordan and Peter... Again... Someone barking at the Daily Star said: "Forget Katie, forget Peter and forget Alex. Chantelle and Preston are the biggest reality stars on the block right now. They are the ones everyone is talking about. Kate thinks she's a massive star, but people want someone they can actually relate to. And that's Chantelle. She's going to be huge"... ITV2 are set to offer the non couple their own reality TV show, as "they're desperate to replace Katie"... That The Tree of Temptation, BB senior task producer Daniel Nettleton, is to bring his kindling to I'm a Celebrity... "the Endemol UK worker, who provided the voice for the Tree of Temptation in recent series of Big Brother, will be heading to the jungle later this year. 'I'm doing lots of fun stuff,' he said. 'Celebrity chests and bush battles and err... maybe more"... Giving Ant and Dec some wood?... Apologies... Now that Montana Fishburne has found fame (albeit through porn), she has admitted herself to rehab... That Leonardo DiCaprio bought a "10-year-old Sulcata tortoise at the North American Reptile Breeders Conference and Trade Show in Anaheim, CA over the weekend... the animal can live to be 80 years old"... Who says he's a commitment phobe?... That Michael Jackson fans are now only allowed bring the dead star gifts if they're willing to part with $3: "Effective immediately, cemetery staff will take gifts for MJ inside the mausoleum - where fans are still forbidden from setting foot - for a $3 fee... oh yeah, as long as those gifts are flowers. Anything else - teddy bears, posters, picture frames, candles - will get dumped ... and if they run out of space inside, we're told excess gifts will have to brave the elements outside"... That, while Rihanna was opening the MTV VMAs with Eminem, Chris Brown was sulking "in a corner at Veranda nightclub in the West Village"... A witness told The New York Post: "He looked lifeless. He barely spoke to anyone and refused to take pictures with fans." The report adds: "the disgraced rapper, who was given two free bottles of vodka at the club, stayed for two hours and didn't leave a tip"...
