Insta Creep: Nadine Coyle Has A Plan To Help I’m A Celeb Viewers Understand Her Accent…
What all the celebs are up to on social, from A to Z listers.
In our gossip column, we indulge our nosiest desires and delve deep into what the celebs (and ‘celebs’) are doing on social media. Who’s tweeting and deleting? Who’s shady faving? Let’s find out.
Idris Elba responded to Chrissy Teigen’s call for him to post a photo of himself from the 90s. Let us explain.
Earlier this week, Idris handed the Sexiest Man Alive title over to John Legend, who tweeted his disbelief that he should follow such a magnificent specimen of a man:
1995 John would be very perplexed to be following 2018 @IdrisElba as #SexiestManAlive. Hell, 2019 John is about as equally perplexed but thank you @People for finding me sexy. I'll take it 🤓 pic.twitter.com/Gw1la5Ebv4

“1995 John would be very perplexed to be following 2018 Idris Elba as the Sexiest Man Alive,” he said. “Hell, 2019 John is about as equally perplexed but thank you People for finding me sexy. I’ll take it.”
Stepping up to defend her husband, Chrissy asked to see a picture of Idris from 1995 – and he happily obliged:

Yup, still hot back then. But you’ve come a long way, John!
After this clip, we cannot WAIT for Nadine Coyle’s turn on I’m A Celebrity.
Yesterday, the Girls Aloud singer posted a video on Twitter chatting about her upcoming stay in the jungle, and discussing her fears that viewers won’t understand her Derry accent.
So she cycled through a few other accents she might be able to do to help them along:

A chameleon! A master auteur! Give her an Oscar IMMEDIATELY.
But honestly, this is gas and we’re fully on Team Nadine. If only she’d make a joke about forgetting her passport, then we’d be set.
Here’s what Michael Sheen will look like playing Chris Tarrant in an upcoming ITV drama.

Uncanny, right?
Michael portrays the host in Quiz, which dramatises the ICONIC story of how a group of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? contestants managed to cheat their way to the top prize. It literally involved them coughing to alert each other of the correct answers. What a tale.
And now it’s time for… #FBF
