CHERYL COLE has been voted the woman British men would most like to go to bed with.
Esquire magazine ran a Women We Love survey of its readers, asking men which female celebrity they would most like to drink with, sleep with or marry - and the Geordie beauty was the favourite in the "sleep with" category.

Sexy actress Rachel McAdams is a self-confessed couch potato.

The Sherlock Holmes star was asked by Vogue to name her perfect day, and revealed it was spent curled up on the sofa watching television.

"[It was] 1995, on a sofa - I grew up watching so much television, I was really into soap operas," she recalled.

"I'd begin with Days Of Our Lives, then Another World and finish off with General Hospital, and before dinner I'd watch Oprah."

The 31-year-old actress also reveals that she used to pretend to be sick just to take the day off school and watch more TV.

"I would fake sick all the time to the point where I'd convince myself I was sick," she said.

With his bad taste jokes about Michael Jackson and killing prostitutes, Frankie Boyle was back to his old self as the host of Never Mind The Buzzcocks.

Personally, I find his intention to offend as many people as possible a little tiring. He's a clever bloke, so I'm sure he could find funnier things to say that aren't always dripping in sarcasm.

He had a go at Michael McIntyre, probably due to sour grapes. He could learn a few things from Michael, who can be hilarious without swearing or criticising everyone in sight.

I actually laughed the most during Buzzcocks at Frankie's brilliant impression of Alan Bennett talking about custard creams. See, you can do it when you want!

I found it ironic that Carol Vorderman told off the bloke from Reverend and the Makers for swearing, yet didn't really challenge Frankie. But then anyone who does gets their head bitten off, so I don't really blame her.

Frankie's influence seemed to have affected the normally-nice Noel Fielding, who told Carol "you look like Bobby Ball if he was in Star Trek". Her outfit was odd, though.

Stacey Solomon has ruled out romance with fellow X Factor finalist Olly Murs because he looks like her brother.

The young mum from Essex denied the pair are dating, despite rumours linking the pair romantically.

She told this week's Closer magazine: "I'd give him 10 out of 10. He's really good looking but he reminds me of my brother so it's a no-go. There's no romance!"

Olly backed up Stacey and insisted: "We're just best mates. She's probably the only one in the X Factor house I can talk to not just about the X Factor."

The average British woman marries her 11th sexual partner.

Whether that makes you think 'I missed out on so much fun' or 'I better get cracking' is your own business, but it's an interesting statistic.

Let's face it this show would have been a washout without her.

Yes I loved watched the public taking the mickey by putting her through hell every night.

But it has also made me realize that the last good reality show is on its last legs.

The jungle format is so tired now its not even funny.

The celebrity contingent just aren't.

And Ant and Dec while once funny now witter on like two 40-year-olds before their time with their 'fart gags' and pure annoyance.

Jordan saved this show for a brief amount of time.

Let's hope that now she has closure the camp itself gets the same fate!

Roz Laws the Sunday Mercury's Entertainment Editor is a huge fan of X-Factor - so much so she was even on the Xtra Factor show on TV at the weekend.

I'm not a fan.

I have avoided this series like the plague, I have ignored the Jedward hysteria and kept well away.

Marge Simpson is reportedly set to flash the yellow flesh in next month's Playboy magazine.
Rumours of the cartoon matriarch's saucy shoot have circulated since HUGH HEFNER tweeted of a "surprise" for fans of the blue-haired temptress.

Now sources have confirmed to entertainment channel E! that Marge will feature in a three-page pictorial complete with a front-page shot, but there's no indication yet as to just how much she will reveal.

November's Playboy special comes as The Simpsons celebrate their 20th anniversary.

Miley Cyrus says she deleted herself from social networking site Twitter in order to regain some sort of "normal" private life.

The 16-year-old Disney star wrote a message on her website apologising to fans who were upset she had left Twitter and explaining her reasons.

Miley wrote: "Twitter is a beautiful thing if used for the right reason. I love my job so much that it is hard to believe sometimes that it is considered 'working'. But, in the end it is still a business and I do need some sort of a 'normal' life as well.

"How can I whine about my life being so public if I am the one telling the world what I am doing?"
