CALVIN GETS THUMBS UP FROM SELENA



CALVIN Harris has another admirer in the form of Selena Gomez.
The singer has admitted she thinks the Dumfries born hit maker is 'wonderful'.
The 23-year-old singer hung out with close friend Taylor Swift and her DJ man at the iHeartRadio Music Awards last weekend and said: "He's great, honestly, he's such a wonderful guy."
Hands to Myself singer Selena also told Entertainment Tonight that social networking can cause issues.
She explained: "I'm very lucky that I have the platform I have, but on social media, as much as it's a blessing and it's fun, it can really tear people down.
"I always hope the people I'm involved with, and who support me, can just kind of spread love within that. It's hard."

RANGERS MIGHT HAVE HAD A LUCKY CHARM FOR LEAGUE WIN




Exclusive
Is this wee boy one of the reasons Rangers won the league?
Cancer patient Lee Welsh turned twelve yesterday (Tuesday) and Rangers invited him to meet them as a special present before their league winning match.
He was also a very special guest at their press conference last month.
James Tavernier who scored gave him a signed print and Martyn Waghorn gave him a signed jersey.


Lee from Larbert, who won boxing championships before being diagnosed with Non Hodgkin Lymphoma at the start of the year, said: "It was a really good birthday meeting the players and then watching them winning the league. I wished them luck before the game."
He added: "I love football but want to be a boxer because it is so disciplined and keeps you fit. I'm not doing any boxing just now because I have to use my energy to fight this."
Dad Richard added: "Mark Warburton has been brilliant and said any time you want to come up, just phone.
Since the change in management Warburton is like a breath of fresh air and very welcoming.
Lee has chemo so he has got to fit his visits in between that. He's had three bouts and is due a fourth. Now that Rangers have won the league hopefully he is seen as a lucky mascot."

LITTLE MIX HAVE A DATE WITH VIP SCOTS DREAMMAKER KIDS





Little Mix invited some very special little guests to their soundcheck at Glasgow's SSE Hydro.

The girls were keen to be on top form for their third sell out show at the venue - and thought the small kids from Les Hoey MBE Dreammaker Foundation might bring them a bit of extra luck.

They invited the nine children to watch them limber up and even held an impromptu question and answer session with them.

Amongst them were Caitlyn Fraser, 15, who suffers Germinoma a type of germ cell tumours in the pituitary gland.

Caitlyn who is one of only forty five in Britain with the condition and has three brain tumours as a result of it said: "It was so good. They were just singing and I was really excited although I feel a bit sick now."

Holly Dunlop ,8, from Livingston was chuffed after she asked two questions at the soundcheck. She said: "The girls were wearing jeans and hoodies, leggings and sweats and were very casual. I'm a big fan and when they asked us if had any questions I asked what song they liked. They said Black Magic. I got their album on my iPod for Christmas and that gets the crowd going because they do it at the end."

"They also said they had six dancers with them."

Nine year old Alisa, and Karly Bodman, six from Elgin were also at the rehearsal. Karly who suffers from acute myeloid leukaemia and had a born marrow transplant two years ago was too shy to ask anything but loved the songs.

The girls were asked by the small gathering if they went out in Glasgow and revealed they'd enjoyed a curry and a spa day before their gig.

Perrie also said her favourite food was haggis and that she auditioned for X factor in Glasgow because Newcastle was cancelled.






The night before the showbizlion.com can exclusively reveal that Jesy, who recently took two days off the tour because of 'ill health', went out for dinner in Glasgow with just her fiancé Jake Roche from the band Rixton.

She and her bandmates have been very emotional recently and fans have been guessing online that she may be pregnant.

The two, who chose to dine separately from the rest of the band, looked a bit dishevelled as they emerged from their black cab and as they walked hurriedly into their hotel Jake admitted they both needed to shower.

A make up free Jesy put on her shades even though it was midnight.

They didn't stop for any fans.

The cute pair try to cheer up the sporting Scot on the Saturday Night Takeaway finale and they manage to get him smiling in their own inimitable way.

Mini Ant then suggests: "I know what will make you happy. Playing football with your mates."

Katie has had seven breast ops increasing her breast size from a 32B to a 32FF. The last procedure saw her reducing her boobs substantially back to her natural size.
A few years ago she talked of raising money for beast cancer charities by putting her implants up for sale but this time round no mention of that powers to have been made.
One fan suggested: "Have you thought of donating them to a pet shop? They'd make ideal trampolines for some playful hamsters."
Another added: "Do they come from a smoke free home?"

TENNENT'S CANS FLYING INTO YOUR DOOR

Is it a bird? Is it a beer?
Tennent’s Lager have come up with the perfect solution to stop you having to lug cans to events like T in The Park. The Scots brewery have launched a new 30 minute drone delivery service - Tennent’s Rapid.
Tennent’s latest venture, which is guaranteed to take off, will ensure you always have a pint when you need one.
From today (April 1st), the brewer will be offering Tennent’s Rapid, an exclusive airborne service delivering a 4-pack of Tennent’s Lager cans direct from Wellpark Brewery within 30 minutes, by drone.
Customers will be able to place their Tennent’s Rapid orders via www.tennents.com/rapid.
The brand has been piloting ‘NBN’, the latest in drone technology. Customers who place their order online just need to enter their delivery location and the drones’ “Need Beer Now” technology will do the rest.
Tennent’s Rapid delivers direct to your exact location, meaning that even customers who live in top floor flats will receive their four pack straight to their window. Applications have also been placed with local authorities across Scotland to allow for special ‘Taps Aff’ deliveries to Scotland’s green spaces over the summer months.
With drone technology improving all the time, Tennent’s Rapid hope to offer international deliveries in future, helping to grow the brand’s foreign markets. Preliminary trials are underway to offer Spanish customers ‘El Drono’ deliveries whilst Italy will enjoy their favourite Scottish lager via ‘Birra Rapida’.
The brand is also testing Tennent’s Rapid with a view to delivery of Scotland’s favourite by the actual pint glass. It will give consumers in busy pub beer gardens the opportunity to not miss out on the fun and avoid drinking other, inferior lagers.
JP Murphy, Head of Brand Marketing at Tennent’s said:
“We’ve been working on Tennent’s Rapid at Wellpark Brewery for some time now and it’s great to finally launch it. It’s important that our customers don’t fly off the rails when they’ve run out of their favourite lager, which was our main reason for introducing the service. The Need Beer Now (NBN) drone technology is unique and we’re chuffed to be at the forefront of what is a truly pioneering venture. We’re confident our customers will love it and it’ll really take off.”
