Oh, do put it away, Simon! (The chest hair, that is... you only flash it ...
Simon Cowell is not a man to let a few inches of snow get in the way of a fashion statement. So it should have come as no surprise to see The X Factor boss on the coldest day of the year with his shirt unbuttoned and his luxuriant chest hair on display yet again. Cowell’s trimmed fuzz feels like a familiar friend these days. In the past year it’s been paraded on the seafront in Nice, flaunted alongside bikini-clad beauties in Barbados and glimpsed by millions of viewers on Britain’s Got Talent. Given that Cowell is a man who claims to be in touch with what the British public wants, what on earth possesses him to flash his hairy chest at every opportunity? Cold front: Simon...

"You have to understand that she's an individual and you can't judge the entire community on the basis of one person's behaviour. You shouldn't even judge Pakistan through me.

Class of 2004 QBs setting standard
INDIANAPOLIS — With Eli Mannings fourth-quarter rally in the Giants 21-17 win over the Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI on Sunday, the quarterback class of 2004 now has four rings.

But teachers' unions accused the government of an over prescriptive approach to literacy lessons. The government said the competition was intended to encourage reading for pleasure in children who had already...

Eastwood's Super Bowl ad sparks the discord it decries
WASHINGTON — Perhaps the most attention-getting Super Bowl ad - other than that dog blackmailing his owner with tortilla chips to keep quiet over a felinicide, of course - was Clint Eastwood's paean to a resurgent auto industry in Detroit. The ad featured Eastwood leveraging his cinematic persona to the hilt, emerging from the shadows while praising and challenging America at the same time. "It's halftime in America too," Eastwood rasped during halftime at the Super Bowl in a manner reminiscent of the Detroiter he played in "Gran Torino." "Seems that we've lost our heart at times. The fog, the division, the discord and blame made it hard to see what lies ahead. But after those trials,...

Updated: February 6, 2012 7:23PM G isele Bundchen’s angry dissing of hubby Tom Brady’s New England Patriots teammates — as she exited the Super Bowl on Sunday night — has unveiled long-held negative feelings about the supermodel. Other players’ wives and members of the Patriots’ organization gave me an earful Monday as Bundchen’s comments went viral. Reportedly egged on by a New York Giants fan who made a mocking remark to Bundchen on her way out of Lucas Oil Stadium, the Brazilian beauty said, “My husband cannot f - - - - - - throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time. I can’t believe they dropped the ball so many times.” A veteran team...

Ronnie James Dio announces deluxe editions
n May 2010 the world of Hard Rock and Heavy Metal lost one of its most gifted and fervent ambassadors, with the passing of Ronnie James Dio.

She also explained how she'd been abused by both her parents and that repeated attempts at therapy had failed to lift her past this wound in her past. Indisputably tragic then... though in a way that serving police officers couldn't take a lot of account of if they were going to continue to do their job. And that's another clue to the...

Louise Rennison: The teen queen who never grew up
Her bestselling character Georgia Nicolson has become an institution among young female readers. First published in 1999, five million of her diary confessions and those of her more sensitive alter ego, Tallulah Casey, have been sold. Rennison is now billed as the "Queen of Teen" by her publishers HarperCollins in a burgeoning market for adolescent fiction worth £42m a year.

"If boys get any of it I'm really thrilled," admits Rennison, a former stand-up comic with a personal history...

Alighiero Boetti: An early Damien Hirst who had it all mapped out
Born in 1940 in Turin, he thought like a conceptual artist far beyond his time. As his career progressed, he challenged the notion that an artwork was only an artwork if it had been created by the artist's own hand. He had the idea, and he sent it out to be made by others, a concept that contemporary artists such as Damien Hirst and Takashi Murakami have since adopted. The method was contentious then as now: David Hockney is the last in a long line to criticise the artist that conceives his work, but does not engage in its production....

Zach Braff: Medicine man has the last laugh
Cut to 2012 and it's quite a different scene. Eight and half years on Scrubs has made Braff one of the most recognisable, and bankable, faces on American television. (From 2007 until the show ended in 2010, he was rumoured to be earning at least $350,000 per episode). Today, he splashes out on sparkling water, spaghetti bolognese and a cappuccino for lunch. A trickle of fans hover awkwardly by our table and the waitress asks for a picture when she brings the bill. Dressed in expensive layers of grey wool, he's older and less comical-looking than the rubber-faced J.D., almost a little Eeyorish. I'd been expecting a fast-talking, Noo-Joisey wisecracker but he's more a slow-burn, wry anecdote...
