The legendary soul singer, Scientologist and South Park favourite was found dead at his Memphis home on Sunday, the cause of death has now been announced as stroke.

No autopsy was carried out but the cause of death was given as a stroke in the paperwork filed by the Hayes’ family doctor, who had been treating Isaac for high blood pressure.

This week’s question for our agony uncle, David Allen, is from Gavin, who hasn’t been able to quit uni-style boozing and soon turns 30.

Dear David,

While I was at Uni I used to drink socially along with everyone else. There was a pretty full-on drinking culture, in that we drank most nights (lots of cheap deals and two-for-ones in clubs) and then hair of the dog the next day.

The woman credited/blamed for Celebrity Size Zero fever, stylist Rachel Zoe, has ‘bravely’ allowed Harpers Bazaar to photoshop her from size zero to a size eight.

Gosh, imagine that, size eight. Imagine being so grossly, enormously fat. Wowee. Seeing those pictures was probably like, you know, her Road to Damascus moment or something.

Despite looking like a Dallas wig on an actual-size Barbie doll, Cheryl Cole is unhappy with her figure and is putting herself through a punishing schedule to look good for the new series of The X Factor.

According to Reveal magazine, she’s keeping to a strict diet and having regular sessions with a personal trainer so she looks tip-top.

We don’t mind bitching about pampered, preening A-listers caught with hairy toes or a big, lumpy backside, but when it’s someone we like, we feel bad.

So we’re going to try not to use mean words to describe Lucy “Dawn from The Office” Davis, who has gained weight, like, quite a lot, due to (according to the NotW), marriage problems.

So does this mean normal water is fattening?!

According to the Daily Mail, ‘marketing men’ (grr, those jerks again) say that the new product, Skinny Water, is made to suppress hunger and fight fat.

But the exact skinny science behind all those is a bit more woolly. In other words, no clinical trials have been carried out.

It’s hard to believe sometimes that Nicole Kidman had a baby just a few weeks ago.

The Hollywood star gave birth to her daughter, Strawberry Sundae (or something like that) only last month, but has already shed her baby weight.

Some have claimed it to be a miracle. Even we started to think the whole pregnancy thing was a cunning trick, and that Nicole Kidman had simply adopted another child and stuffed a pillow down her top to make it look natural.

Want to know how Jessica Alba lost her baby weight in eight weeks?

Well, according to the Fantastic Four actress, it’s all thanks to breastfeeding.

Alba was pictured recently looking ultra-slim – despite only giving birth to daughter Honor Marie in June.

And the Hollywood star is convinced that breast-feeding helped her shed the pounds quickly.

There are some ‘are they-aren’t they?’ games that we prefer not to play, as they’re simply not as much fun as they should be.

Assuming that Angelina Jolie has had herself some kids is one version of the game we’re more than willing to play. Even when it’s as clearly wrong as some people can be. That’s almost fun, if you’re into that kind of thing.

Imagine getting all the benefits of exercising every day - by simply taking a pill.

I know, it seems too good to be true, doesn’t it? I think we all like the idea of losing weight, getting fit and improving our muscle tone without even getting out of breath.

Seriously? 33 stone. In 15 years. That’s over two stone a year on average, and for a few of those years she was a baby and toddler.

We’re all for understanding, but this is pretty inexplicable. And yes, there are reasons why some people put more weight on than others, there is such a thing as puppy fat and there have always been podgy kids. But 33 stone?
