The Sex and the City redhead, who plays butch solicitor, Miranda Hobbs, has revealed she overcame breast cancer, but it wasn’t that big a brouhaha.

The mum of one discovered she had stage 1 cancer two years ago, she tells Shape magazine. Having watched her mum suffer with – and beat – breast cancer 30 years before, she wasn’t too worried.

In a near fatal case of head-in-the-sandness, Jade admits she had been for four smears that found abnormal cells and ignored a letter telling her she needed to have more cells removed in case they led to cervical cancer.

She had had cells removed after the first three abnormal smears, but she says she was too scared to go back to hospital and instead the pre-cancerous abnormal cells became full cervical cancer.

Big, lumpy, common, brassy, once-was-pretty, now fronts Iceland, Kerry Katona has decided her body is so ravaged that she needs a new one.

The woman who can honestly say Brian McFadden was the best she had, is to spend a small fortune on a set of fresh body parts. Despite continually protesting she’s brassic, she’s to splurge £15,000 on the full-body-service including breast reduction and liposuction.

Breast cancer is a terrifying disease at the best of times, so when you’re a woman famour – in part – for the way you look, the way you move and – not to be too flippant – your womanly curves – it must suck even bigger.

So a big thumbs up to brave Christina Applegate, 36, who has burst forth onto the TV circuit and spoken eloquently and honestly about her double mastectomy and upcoming breast reconstruction surgery.

Reality TV nincompoop, Jade Goody, has left the Indian Big Brother house after being told in the diary room that she has cervical cancer.

There are shades of dark irony and there are gory details, but at the end of the day, it’s still cancer, so we’ll be respectful.

Size zero Cheryl Cole, who is now a judge on X-Factor so can annoy you every Saturday night as well as every time you open the paper, has been moaning about the pressure on women to look a certain way.

And this pressure wouldn’t be at all helped by tiny little pop stars making the rest of us feel unwieldy at anything above size eight.

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.

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.

She was famous for being slim and pretty with a heaving bosom. Then she was famous for being a mean bullying ratbag, then she was famous for being slim and pretty again. But for a brief bit she was a stone heavier. Here’s how she lost that stone.

A little while ago she was nicknamed ‘porky’ by the mean, bullying papers, after looking ever-so-slightly more cushioned than normal for a bikini shoot.

Hold up! Two stone?! She was only a streak of piss to begin with. The Devil Wears Prada star has slimmed down to a right tiny size after her former lover, Raffaello Follieri, was arrested on big scary fraud charges.

She’s slimmed from a healthy size ten to a teeny weeny size six in around a month, and looks pale and tired in press shots.

Emma Bunton, who once claimed eating disorders don’t happen in Barnet, has told Red magazine that she prefers herself curvy to scrawny.

Baby Spice is adamant that knocking around with Victoria Beckham and Geri Halliwell again hasn’t made her diet bonkers and has no intention of following them on their dogged size zero quest.
