Speeding Jordan Strips While Her Book Outstrips the PM's

PopSugarUK — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 04:00:00 -0800

Jordan stripped down to her undies to launch her new Katie Prince lingerie sets at Lakeside's Asda yesterday. While Kate has used models of all sizes to promote her ranges, saying "There are lots of people who promote their underwear with stick thin models but I wanted to use my family and friends", she's come under criticism for her own figure. Germaine Greer has said although she thinks Kate is "a genius ... she's destroying herself... and that's not a pretty picture". In more bad news, Kate is due to stand trial in January for an alleged speeding offence. Kate can take some comfort from the fact her latest autobiography is hugely more popular than Prime Minister Gordon Brown’s book, outselling it by more than 4,000 copies in the last fortnight.

Jordan Chats About Rumours, Riding and Revenge

PopSugarUK — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0800

Katie Price/Jordan and Peter Andre went to ITV's London studios to appear on yesterday's This Morning, where they hosted a slot on the show about the goings-on Down Under on I'm A Celebrity. Although they've been pictured partying separately recently, Kate (who apparently will soon be trying for another baby), has hit back at rumours their relationship is rocky. She's also been chatting to The Sun about her dressage ambitions and the new contestants in the jungle. Here are highlights:

On the new I'm A Celeb contestants finding love: "If they do people will always say they’re trying to be like me and Pete and they’ll end up living in our shadow. But good luck to everyone in there. It is a bloody hard show and they do starve you — it’s tough."
On rumours her and Pete are splitting up: "I’ve only been pictured on a night out twice without Pete. Everyone assumes we’re arguing and about to break up. Just because I went out two weeks on the trot with the girls it’s a big drama and everyone jumps to the conclusion we have split up. No one looks back to see when was the last time I went out without Pete — they just focus on one or two pictures and jump to conclusions."

To see what Kate said about how they react to the rumours, her dressage ambitions, and how she feels about Cartier, just

Bored of LA Already, Jordan?

PopSugarUK — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 02:00:00 -0800

Well, that was a short trip! Jordan/Katie Price only left for LA on Friday, but she was back on our shores after just a couple of days, arriving at Heathrow Airport yesterday covered in smiles, literally. She spent the weekend kissing Pete and shopping, and joked with photographers on arriving at Heathrow that she had made the transatlantic trip just to get her hair done. With the family's planned move to the States in January, Kate will have plenty more time to soak up the LA sunshine.

Jordan and Peter Back Together Again

PopSugarUK — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 03:00:00 -0800

Jordan/Katie Price wasted no time in locking lips with Peter Andre after flying out to LA on Friday to join her husband Stateside. The couple went for dinner at Argo in West Hollywood and then lunched at the Ivy over the weekend, sharing lots of kisses in their car at every opportunity. Kate tore herself away from Pete long enough to hit the shops, one of her favourite pastimes, going from Kitson to the Beverley Centre. While rumours about the breakdown of their marriage continue, with the latest suggesting Kate's jealous over Pete's fling with Mel B 12 years ago, the couple are showing their love to the world, with Kate telling reporters "Everything is fine". Glad to hear it.

Katie Flies Out To Join Peter In LA

PopSugarUK — Fri, 31 Oct 2008 08:25:42 -0700

Katie Price was all smiles at Heathrow today, as she prepared to fly out to join her hubby Peter Andre in LA. She's been out partying a lot lately, and there are concerns she's morphing back into her partygirl persona to block out problems at home — she looked healthy and smiley at the airport though. I hope some more time with Peter will make her as happy as she seemed on TV last night when the couple's renewal of vows from back in September was aired.

Businesswoman and Mother Jordan Styles Herself in Half

PopSugarUK — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 00:00:00 -0700

Jordan/Katie Price took her dual identity to the extreme yesterday at the launch of her new electrical haircare range at Superdrug in London. As her range includes straighteners and tongs, Kate went curly on one side and sleek on the other, before switching from businesswoman to mother as she left the launch with her children Harvey and Princess Tiaamii. Fans of Kate's burgeoning merchandising line will be pleased to know there's more to come, with a new product coming out every six weeks, from shampoos and makeup to baby clothes, DVDs, a calendar and "more horse stuff". She's also about to start training for the London Marathon, and she hopes to bring out another charity album with Pete. It's all go for the Pricey!

Jordan Shows Paris Some Love

PopSugarUK — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 04:00:00 -0700

Jordan/Katie Price and Paris Hilton were among the celebrities attending the Movida relaunch in London last night. We all know how much Paris loves Britain, thanks to her choice of clutch earlier in the week, so it was nice to see Kate returning the favour and showing Paris some love by carrying an Eiffel Tower bag. It's good to know Carrie Bradshaw's influence on accessories is still alive and well. We spotted Kate partying in London last week too — I hope this isn't a sign that things are bad at home.

Had a Good Night, Jordan?

PopSugarUK — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 03:00:00 -0700

Jordan/Katie Price has been under a lot of pressure recently, what with her dressage performance at the Horse of the Year Show, those rumours about marriage problems (which she deals with in this week's OK magazine) and Pamela Anderson criticising her. So it's not surprising that she just wanted to let her hair down and let loose last night. Alongside her sister, Sophie, and a helpful minder, Kate hit up all the clubs in London, going from Embassy to Silver to Maddox to Blush, leaving just before 5am. No wonder she needed a little help from her friends as she made her way home.

Jordan Competes in Horse Show and Lends Her Face to Hoof

PopSugarUK — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 07:00:20 -0700

Earlier in the week we saw Jordan/Katie Price in training for the Horse of the Year Show, and today she took to the arena in Birmingham for real to perform Dressage to Music on her horse, Jordan's Glamour Girl. Having been banned from the VIP tent at the Cartier Polo event earlier this year, it's good to see this horse show isn't so snobby. Kate's making even more progress in the horse world as the face of Hoof, a British Equestrian Federation campaign that encourages inner-city children to take up riding ahead of the 2012 Olympics in London. We might even see Kate there.

Jordan Uses Her Chest to Communicate at Horse Show

PopSugarUK — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 02:00:00 -0700

Jordan/Katie Price has swapped the glamour of Paris Fashion Week for the dressage arena of Birmingham. Kate's busy training for the Horse of the Year Show, where she'll be performing Dressage to Music with her horse Jordan's Glamour Girl on Friday, as well as promoting her equestrian clothing range. She’s spoken about her nerves, so let's hope the performance is a perfect as possible. I'm not too sure about Kate's choice of training outfit, although the words "Secret Lover" could be her way of making fun of those recent rumours about marriage troubles.

Sweet Smelling Jordan And Peter Join John in Paris

Jordan/Katie Price had a busy weekend, promoting her new perfume Besotted in Manchester and rubbing shoulders with John Galliano alongside hubby Peter Andre at at Paris Fashion Week. Kate went for a more demure outfit for her perfume signing at the Trafford Centre compared to the launch in London, and kept with the all-black theme for her PFW appearance, while Pete went casual in jeans and trainers. It's good to see the couple continuing to defy the rumours of marraige problems with their public appearances. Nothing like a trip to the city of love to reignite the passion.

Jordan And Peter Defy Rumours of Split With Smiley Night Out

PopSugarUK — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 07:00:00 -0700

Jordan/Katie Price and Peter Andre looked happy and in love on a night out at Bungalow 8 in London yesterday. There have been several rumours of problems for the couple recently, with magazines this week suggesting they could be heading for a split, so this display of unity is no doubt Kate and Peter's attempt to put the rumours to rest once and for all. They're one of my favourite celebrity couples, and I always tune in to ITV2 on Thursdays to see the latest installment in their reality show. With plans to move to America for a few months in January, perhaps the new environment will give them the space and time to mend whatever friction there may be and move forward.

Jordan Pouts to Perfection at Perfume Launch

PopSugarUK — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 00:00:00 -0700

Katie Price was in pouting Jordan mode as she launched her new perfume, Besotted, at the Paper Club in London yesterday. She's been focusing on the business recently, what with the launch of her equestrian clothing range this week too, but she still finds time to dispel some of those rumours that follow her around. During her appearance on GMTV she confronted the issue of her weight by standing on a set of scales.

Things don't look like calming down any time soon though, with reports that Kerry Katona is considering writing a tell-all book about Kate. It looks like Kate was too busy playing up to her Jordan persona at the perfume launch yesterday to care too much about that rumour — she even flashed her buttocks at one point. Cheeky.

We've got more pictures of Kate at the launch, so just

The Couple Who Manicures Together, Stays Together

PopSugarUK — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 05:00:00 -0700

Following her equestrian clothes range launch at the weekend, Jordan/Katie Price visited the GMTV studios today with perfectly manicured nails. Kate's revealed she's not the only one to enjoy that kind of beauty treatment, saying: "I check Pete gets manicures and pedicures. I can't bear men with manky hands or manky feet". Pete's always struck me as a metrosexual kind of guy so this doesn't surprise me, and I'm not surprised that their spokesman has responded to rumours their marriage is in trouble by denying the couple renewed their vows and saying: "Everything about their marriage could not be better". I have to admit I love this couple, so I'm glad to hear it.

Curly Katie Continues the Clothes, Comes Out on Top

A plump-lipped (and plumper cheeked?) Jordan/Katie Price spent the weekend promoting her new equestrian clothing line in Lancashire as it was announced she'd been voted the nation's favourite reality TV star. Kate got 40% of the public's vote in the internet poll, beating fellow I’m A Celebrity jungle alumni David Gest and Big Brother's Brian Dowling. You were pretty evenly split on whether you loved or hated Kate's new equestrian fashion range when I asked you earlier this month: now you've seen more, has it changed or confirmed your opinion on the pink creations?

Does ITV2 Or E4 Get Your Thursday Vote?

PopSugarUK — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 08:00:00 -0700

Now we're well in to September, the weather may be getting colder but the TV shows are heating up! In particular the 9-11pm slot on Thursdays is full of treats, with a trio of shows on ITV2 and on E4. ITV2 has the couple that are anything but boring, Katie & Peter: the Next Chapter, followed by Billie Piper as high class escort in Secret Diary of a Call Girl, and then new UK comedy series No Heroics. Over on E4 there's three American imports: all-new Ugly Betty, Christina Applegate's new series Samantha Who? and then Crowned, the mother-daughter beauty pageant competition. Staying in's the new going out, so which channel gets your Thursday night vote: ITV2 or E4?Photos copyright 2008 ABC, Inc, The CW, © ITV Plc and © Ed Miller / Tiger Aspect

Does ITV2 Or E4 Get Your Thursday Vote?

ITV2 — I'm all about reality couples, prostitutes and superheroes!

E4 — it's all about the American shows for me!

Both, thanks to the wonders of Sky+!

Neither!

Jordan's Equestrian Range: Love It Or Leave It?

PopSugarUK — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 05:00:00 -0700

The merchandising power house that is Jordan/Katie Price has stepped things up a gear and moved in to equestrian fashion. Yes, really. Hot on the heels of her bedding range, Kate launched her own equestrian clothing range, KP Equestrian, at London's Holborn studios yesterday. The model is horse mad (even dreaming of competing at the 2012 Olympics), and is also a massive fan of pink, so it was only a matter of time until she went down this route. Her polo-playing outfit looks more practical to me than those pink heels, but what do you think of her equestrian range: love it or leave it?Stefan Reimschussel/BigPicturesPhoto.com
