Boy George is currently under 'licence' after he was released early from his 15 month prison sentence for falsely imprisoning a rent boy. Following his release he was offered a lucrative deal to join the Celebrity Big Brother House in January. His supervising probation officer initially agreed to George entering the House but the Chief Executive of the Probation Service then overturned this and refused permission.

After a High Court battle on the subject George has lost his case to overturn the Probation Service's decision and will therefore not be appearing on the show.

Dean's Comment: Did the court and probation service get it wrong? In the words of the Churchill Dog "OOOHHH YESSS" of course they did. It is a ridiculous decision where both the probation service and courts were too busy thinking about media reaction as opposed to thinking about what the correct decision was. It is clear that when someone is released on licence that the objective is to 'monitor behaviour', 'protect the public' and 'rehabilitate'. Wouldn't this have been the perfect way of achieving all three of these objectives? Instead they now have someone on their hands who will dwell on his loss of opportunity and may even turn back to drugs... For the record, if I had advised Boy George, I would have suggested that he donate half the money to charity so that he could have played the public interest card!

I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here stars Gino D'Acampo and Stuart Manning have both received what is called "field summons notices" to appear in court in February on the charge of animal cruelty. The notices come after the RSPCA in Australia saw D'Acampo and Manning catch, kill and eat a rat whilst on the show.

Dean's Comment: "There's a rat in D'Acampo what am I going to do? I know I will catch and eat it" (bad joke but couldnt resist it but someone really needs to tell Gino that Ratatouilli does not actually have 'rat' in the ingredients!) I am no expert on Australian law so I have consulted an Australian legal coleague. He tells me that animal cruelty is taken extremely seriously in Australia and that the RSPCA down under have wide powers. However don't worry too much, our new King of the Jungle is only likely to recieve a fine and a listing on Australian's rat's most wanted list.

Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood was arrested and detained in custody overnight after a "domestic incident" with his young Russian girlfriend. Reports have said that Woods attacked his Russian girlfirend who is 42 years his junior. Police have said that Woods has been released on bail pending further enquiries.

Dean's Comment: I could ask what he is doing with a girlfriend 42 years younger than him, but I wont! You could also question if he is feeling insecure about having a Russian beauty young enough to be his daughter (or even grand daughter) who may just decide that she needs a younger model?? This is not my area of expertise so I am not commenting. Back to the legals, this is very simple, unless she presses charges againts him this case is going nowhere and guess what, I hear that she has packed her case and gone back to Russia (and I'm guessing that the case has a few million pounds in it)!! Watch this space, not.

Was he possessed, did he drink 50 cups of coffee or was he on something??? That's what Robbie Williams' record label Sony have been asking themselves since his live performance on X Factor Saturday night. If rumours are true, they have thrown the book at Robbie and have threatened to sue him for damages if his latest album proves to be a flop.

Dean's comment: Hold on Sony, we accept that his eyes did look like Kaa, the hypnotic snake out of The Jungle Book, but this is far short of proving that he actually was "under the influence" Saturday night. It is common place for recording contracts to state that the record label can sue if the artist does something purposely which could damage his reputation (like take drugs). However, if the label is to sue for this they would need 'hard' evidence and Robbie is going to say that he was simply high on adrenalin. Robbie, ditch the espresso's now!!

Is this becoming the most public break-up in history and we haven't even reached the divorce yet!! In the latest battle between the pair it is alleged that Pete has had an argument with Alex Reid (Katies new boyfirend) on the phone during which he has called him a 'tranny and druggie' and threatened him.

Dean's comment: Im not taking sides here but Pete is playing right into Katies hands and at the moment it looks like "round 3 Katie". Eventually the whole break-up will be before the courts who will decide on important matters like who is going to get custody of the pink(!) toaster. You can bet your bottom dollar that Katie will be using this latest story as evidence of Pete's conduct. Final piece of advice to Pete, I'm sure that you have a better chance of reaching no:1 in the charts than you have of beating up a cage fighter.

Pictures of Alex Reid engaged in a violent sex scene in his new film have been leaked to the press. The result: Jordan is being pressured into dumping him! Alex's spokesman said he's considering legal action after the pictures from the movie were leaked. He added: Killer Bitch is not a porn movie, it is a gangster movie in which Alex is the main character. The rape scene has been taken completely out of context and Alex is speaking to lawyers.

Dean's comment: Dream on Alex. If you make a movie, there's a good chance that the general public are going to watch it. Did you think that it was just for your personal viewing?? No court in the land is going to rule in your favour.
