Jamie East & comedian Alice Brine are back with another Weekly Dispatch, serving up their hot takes on the strangest stories in showbiz this week.
Katie Price once again proves she’s the greatest tabloid character Britain has ever produced. The pair unpack her latest Lee-in-prison saga, a Pride crowd being asked whether she should dump him, and why Pricey may actually be a marketing genius playing us all.
Meanwhile, Susan Boyle’s celebrity endorsement era continues. Fresh from Cornetto, she’s now teamed up with Franz Ferdinand and Irn-Bru for Scotland’s World Cup campaign.
Alice reveals just how much celebrities can earn for brand deals while Jamie remains convinced Susan Boyle has never once said the words “girders spirit”.
Alice also lifts the lid on life inside advertising including the Love Island star who couldn’t roller skate despite everyone saying she could, and the time Katy Perry spent hours lying in a freezing bath of lettuce dressed as a giant kebab.
Elsewhere the pair celebrate the golden age of ridiculous celebrity endorsements, revisit Graham Norton’s unforgettable salad cream photoshoot, discuss rumours of Dua Lipa’s luxury wedding giveaways, and get lost down a rabbit hole involving Charli XCX, Le Creuset and AI-generated dubious cookware ads.
Welcome back to the Celebrity Trenches!
