Caroline Flack to meet Harry Styles' mum

We'd like to be the fly on the wall when Xtra Factor presenter Caroline Flack meets the mother of her young boyfriend Harry Styles over Christmas.

The 32-year-old hooked up with 17-year-old Harry a while ago - and has since been defending their age-gap relationship in the media.

So it'd be interesting to hear if she'll use the same lines on Harry's mum Anne Cox - who we suspect will be considerably closer to her age than she is Harry's.

The Mirror quoted a source as saying: "Harry has asked Caroline to meet his family this Christmas. And, after some persuasion she has agreed.

"Like any mother, Anne is concerned over the age gap but, if Harry can get his mother to see that Caroline makes him happy, that's all he wants."

Caroline defended her involvement with Harry earlier this week, saying she didn't think it was fair to call it "disgusting".

Gary 'issues X Factor ultimatum': 'It's me or Louis' (VOTE)

The X Factor sniping, rowing and backstage bickering seem to have reached new levels this year but, if the rumours are to be believed, next year's show will be a less bitchy affair.

According to The Sunday Mirror, self-appointed 'head judge' Gary Barlow has issued Simon Cowell with an ultimatum with regards to onscreen rival Louis Walsh, saying, "It's him or me."

There has always been a certain amount of panto in-fighting on The X Factor but tension between Louis and the Take That singer has been looking increasingly real as the series has progressed.

And it's led Gary to force Cowell into a decision.

An insider told the Mirror, "Gary and Louis have completely different ideas of what this show is all about. Gary wants it to be a credible singing contest and Louis sees it as entertainment.

"Although he's been outspoken defending his acts and criticising other people's, Gary hates all the pantomime rowing and thinks Louis is behind most of it."

That's not all. Mr Barlow reportedly lays the blame for Misha B's departure squarely at Louis' door after the whole bullying debacle.

The source added, "Gary is unsure about his future on the show... The thought of another year with Louis is just too much for him to bear. He says he will only consider coming back if Louis leaves."

Would you prefer to see Gary or Louis on next year's panel?Gary, we want him back for goodLouis, he's got the likeability factorNeither, ditch the lot and start again

Given Simon Cowell's fondness for the Irishman, it's a dangerous game to play.

A gossip described as close to Gary, insisted the pair had been friends for years and said, "They'll always be mates whatever happens."

Wonder if that will still be true should Gary get the boot.

Heather Mills chauffeur copied disabled permit

A former chauffeur for Heather Mills has admitting making a copy of her disabled parking permit - and claimed he had her consent when he photocopied it.

Stewart Simonson was pleaded guilty to using the badge illegally when he appeared at Enfield Magistrates Court, having been caught by traffic wardens six months after leaving Ms Mills' employ.

He claimed that she often forgot to carry her permit with her when he was driving her, so he made a copy of it with her approval.

Unfortunately for him, traffic wardens noticed that the picture on the reverse of the permit was of a woman they "recognised from the TV".

In a statement to the court, Simonson wrote: "I was employed as a chauffeur by a lady who was awarded a disabled badge. On occasion she would forget to bring the badge, therefore I made a copy.

"I suffer from arthritis which forced me to retire. Six weeks before this I had been discharged from hospital and am in constant pain and unable to walk any distance and applied for a badge myself."

Simonson was ordered to pay £660 in fines and costs.

There was no suggestion that Ms Mills knew Simonson was continuing to use the permit.

Jennifer Aniston voted sexiest woman in the world... EVER

She's no stranger to Hollywood hottie lists but now A-list lovely Jennifer Aniston has been voted the Sexiest Woman of All Time.

Why did the readers of Men's Health magazine put Jen at the top of the list? The publication speculated that it's because "funny is sexy" and her "down-to-earth persona makes her seem attainable".

The fact that she's got a rockin' hot body is just an added bonus.

The 43-year-old can afford herself a little smile though because Angelina Jolie, the woman who nicked her hubby Brad Pitt, only came in 10th.

Pipped at the post by Ms Aniston were Raquel Welch, Marilyn Monroe, Britney Spears and Madonna, while Ursula Andress, Bettie Page, Pamela Anderson and Jane Fonda also made the top 10.

Neither of Jen's own choices made the top 10, however.

She told the mag, "It's a tie between Brigitte Bardot and Gloria Steinem. But if I had to choose one, I'd say Gloria because, well, she's the full package. That's sexy."

Kelly denies X Factor tipsy rumours

The X Factor judge Kelly Rowland has taken to Twitter to deny that she had been at the sherry before last night's live final, in response to speculation about her over-excited behaviour.

The 30-year-old seemed a little out of character as she wished Little Mix a "merry frickin' Christmas" and asked presenter Dermot O'Leary to repeat a question because: "I have no idea what you just said!"

And her over-enthusiasm prompted viewers to start speculating that she may have been enjoying the hospitality in the show's green room.

One fan tweeted: "Kelly Rowland IS DRUNK! what was that exchange Dermot?! not very professional. not very Kelly Rowland we've seen so far."

Kelly's repeated use of the phrase "y'all" also raised eyebrows among viewers.

But Kels hit back on her own Twitter feed, saying: "Nice try, but I wasn't under the influence, in ANY way..........just overwelmed by the crowds cheers!"

Hmmm, we'll give you the benefit of the doubt this time then Kelly.

Kerry calls police over lesbian stalker

Reality TV personality Kerry Katona has resorted to getting the police involved over the unwanted attentions of a female stalker.

Kerry and her manager Max Clifford decided to call the five-O after the woman, an American lesbian named Stella, told Clifford's office that she had been watching Kerry get changed at her home.

Kerry told The Mirror newspaper: "'I was getting dressed and there was a phone call to Max's company from this lady saying she'd been watching me getting changed.

"So I panicked and called the police. But this woman has been annoying us all for weeks now. At the end of the day I've got four kids, live in a big house and have to take this sort of thing seriously."

And Clifford told MailOnline that the woman had been calling his office constantly.

He said: "She's just a very sad lady. She's been phoning my office about two months now, sometimes 20 times a day.

"She's a lesbian who claims that she and Kerry are destined to be together, she wants to meet her, she thinks she can help her.

"Sometimes she calls and just plays Atomic Kitten down the phone or gets her mother to call us pretending to be her agent.

"We won't put her through to Kerry, obviously, but if she is watching her, then you get a bit worried about people like this. We have told the police, they are aware of her."

Kerry has been stalked by a woman before, when somebody she had befriended on Facebook kept coming to the house she used to share with former hubby Mark Croft.
