Peaches Geldof is, like, a quantum physicist

Peaches Geldof, in an attempt not to be seen as a silly airhead, claims to be interested in quantum physics.

On last night's ITV2 documentary with Fearne Cotton, she said she wanted to talk about space, worm holes and the Large Hadron Collider.

"It's in, like, Texas or somewhere," she drawled. Actually it's, like, Switzerland, love. Oops!

Maybe she is quite intelligent - she is the daughter of Paula Yates and Bob Geldof after all - but this film did nothing to disprove the 'myth' (Fearne's word) that Peaches doesn't do much.

She needs an assistant to tell her her hectic schedule, which goes something like this. On a typical day in New York, she got up at 11am, met friends and then dropped into a magazine office where writes a column.

Then, after all of half-an-hour's work, she declared: "I feel like I'm going to pass out."

She thought nothing of just nodding off in front of people if she was tired. That's rude, yet Fearne decided to put a ridiculous spin on her subject's spoilt, self-centered behaviour by saying: "I kind of admire her bravery." Bravery! Come off it.

I know I shouldn't even be writing about her because it just sustains the career of these people who are famous for being famous.

So sorry about that, I promise I won't ever mention Peaches again. Except as a fruit, obviously. This week I met chef James Martin and he showed me how to caramelise peaches, but that's another story....
