KATIE HIND: The VERY unflattering thing Cheryl Tweedy told me about X Factor judge Louis Walsh - and why, as someone disliked by so many in showbiz, he's playing a dangerous game on Celebrity Big Brother
'What do you think of Louis Walsh ?' Cheryl asked me, writes Katie Hind. I shrugged my shoulders, but did say I knew he was partial to being rude about colleagues to journalists.
And so I’m stunned that the streetfighting Irishman, who is currently appearing on Celebrity Big Brother, kicked off a very public feud with the Irish singing and TV presenting duo Jedward by telling his fellow housemates the pair were ‘vile’ during Tuesday’s episode, before boasting he ‘got £5million from them’. Jedward – Irish brothers John and Edward Grimes, both 32 – responded by branding Walsh an ‘evil manipulator’ who they allege tried ‘to make us sign our name and life away in dodgy contracts to people he was great friends with’ and ‘forced us into an office to pay £70k+ to... one of his own PR workers’. But if Walsh continues to mouth off about the likes of Jedward, it may well prompt other artists who had their careers kick-started by the show to air their own complaints about their treatment on the ITV series by various people, as well as allegations of failures in The X Factor’s duty of care.
