Jo O'Meara broke down on national TV today, claiming her life is in tatters after she was portrayed as a racist bully on Celebrity Big Brother. The former S-Club singer told GMTV's Fiona Phillips that her behaviour towards Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty had been taken out of context and she doesn't believe she is a bully. 'I feel that Big Brother had a TV show to make and they have to do what they can to make good viewing and unfortunately I was a guinea pig,' she said. 'I don't think I bullied Shilpa, I really don't. Everybody makes mistakes but just not everybody does it on TV.' Jo, 27 - who has unsuccessfully tried to launch a solo career - said she only took part in Celebrity Big Brother because her house was under threat of repossession and she needed the cash. Meanwhile, the Duchess of York has weighed into the Celebrity Big Brother debate by declaring her support for Jo. A spokeswoman for the Duchess phoned GMTV after seeing Jo interviewed on the show - saying she felt sympathy for her because she 'knows what it is like to be vilified'.

Jermaine Jackson has offered to give Jo O'Meara a helping hand after her bullying display in Celebrity Big Brother. The Jackson Five legend has urged the former S Club 7 star to shake off her "shackles" and concentrate on her music career following her bust up with winner Shilpa Shetty. He said: "I think that Jo is a very, very wonderful talent and there's a bit of confusion that's trapped inside of her. She needs to step out of her shell. She's young, she's beautiful, she looks great on camera. She can sing. "I was most impressed by Jo because of her musical talent. But she needs to take off those shackles, those handcuffs. "I told her that I have a song that I wanted to present to her. I'm going to do it."

Big Brother contestant Jo O'Meara is said to be distraught after her agent died on Sunday following a heart attack. Tony Fox, 55, died two days after the 27-year-old former S Club 7 singer was evicted. 'Tony was fine on Saturday and spent most of the day with Jo. But then he collapsed and died yesterday,' an insider told the Daily Mirror. 'Jo is devastated – she trusted him implicitly. Tony dealt with all the flak while Jo was in the house and she is terrified that is what caused his heart attack.' Jo is currently in a safe house after she received death threats following the Big Brother race row.

I've collected some quotes by Jo: “I’m not a racist person at all. My cousin is married to an Indian man.” “It does look really bad . . . it looks absolutely terrible.” “I didn’t mean it in that way. I’m not a racist person at all.” “I’m not going to deny Shilpa did aggravate me a lot. You can’t click with everyone. “It wasn’t a personal attack on her. I didn’t even know I was doing it. “I didn’t dislike Shilpa, I just wasn’t as close to her as I was to Danielle or Cleo. “I felt she had a big mask on or a big guard up.”

Last night Jo and Cleo were evicted from the BB house. She was evicted with 48.4% of the public vote. The final in on Sunday and the finalists are Danielle, Ian, Shilpa, Jermaine, Dirk and Jack.

FORMER S Club 7 star Hannah Spearritt is hoping to match Billie Piper’s success with her latest TV role. Hannah, 25, who stars as zoologist Abby in ITV1’s new sci-fi blockbuster Primeval from mid-February, is keen to achieve as much as Billie who also ditched her pop career to win fame as Doctor Who’s assistant Rose. She told us: “The great thing about Billie Piper is that she has shown it can be done. Maybe I couldn’t have got this far if it hadn’t been for her. “I certainly don’t mind comparisons with Billie but I think people will compare us. That’s a compliment as she has had great success and she has paved the way for the likes of me.” Blonde Hannah is now more interested in carving out an acting career since the band split in 2004 and she has put music on hold. In new six-part sci-fi blockbuster, she co-stars with Douglas Henshall and James Moore as a group of scientists investigating a series of dinosaur sightings. In the mean time, she has distanced herself from the race row involving ex-band mate Jo O’Meara that has erupted in Celebrity Big Brother. She said: “I don’t have a view on Celebrity Big Brother. I saw Jo going in but I haven’t seen all the other stuff that’s been going on. I don’t feel that it’s my place to comment. “I’ve been asked to do a few reality shows including The Race on Sky One. But I’ve made a personal decision not to get in reality shows. The Big Brother type ones scare me; I think you have to be a big, brave person to be in there.”

'Celebrity Big Brother' housemate Ian 'H' Watkins has asked Jo O'Meara to have his babies. The ex-Steps singer - who came out as gay to Britain's The Sun newspaper the day before entering the house - wants to be a dad and asked the former S Club 7 singer if she would help him out. Ian said: "I want to be a dad. Shall we have babies?" Jo looked confused, and when Ian repeated his request she knocked him back, saying: "Not if it comes out with hair like that!"

STRUGGLING Celebrity Big Brother witch Jo O’Meara has revealed that she only agreed to appear on the show to stop her house being repossessed. The former S Club 7 singer told pals in the house that her decision to become a housemate was not to salvage her career or to score a record deal. In fact, the 27-year-old is penniless and needs the fee because she is so broke. Talking about her £450,000 house near Romford in Essex, she said: “This will give me a glimmer of hope to keep it. “I did not come in here to try to get a record deal. “I want to be a mum and a wife with a house and my dogs. “I know I’ve had opportunities which probably I should have took – but I said no for a reason.” Motown legend Jermaine Jackson even offered to write a song for Jo – but she doesn’t know if she wants to sing it. Cleo Rocos told Jo about the late Kenny Everett in an effort to help her make her mind up. She said: “Kenny used to tell me, ‘One of the biggest crimes in life is to have talent and not to use it’.” But Jo replied: “I’ve lived that life and it didn’t make me happy. I don’t like the way you have to get your boobs out. “I don’t want the fame thing and the image – I’d rather just sing in bars.” But we can also reveal that there is more bad news on the way for Jo – and she may not be able to earn a crust in bars or anywhere else in Britain. Pals fear that being caught up in the CBB race row has put people off wanting to book her to appear at their venues. The blonde, who mocked Shilpa and said people in India were “skinny because they couldn’t cook properly”, is unaware that a date at London’s world famous G-A-Y club night is already under threat. She is due to play an intimate gig at G-A-Y shortly after she leaves the house but promoters have received complaints about supporting her and they are now conducting a poll to see if fans want her to sing or not on February 3. A source said: “People have been calling G-A-Y and are angry Jo is going to perform and be paid after her comments and bullying towards Shilpa. "So now the idea is that Jo will only get to sing – and get paid – if she wins the CBB vote. “Promoters up and down the land may be having the same thoughts about Jo because of the problems. “And the cash she makes from the show may not be enough, on its own, to save her house.”

Jo O’Meara’s family have revealed their shock at her behaviour in the CBB house saying it is not in her usual character. Her sister Julie appeared on GMTV this morning to defend the former S Club 7 singer who has been embroiled in the racism row. She said: "We're all shocked. It's just not her character at all. She's just not like that. At home she's very down to earth; she's a very timid little girl." And she added that Jo had only go on the show for the money but says that she has chosen the wrong side in the arguments. She said: "Jo was really nervous about going in there because of Jade. And she's gone with that - rather than be on the victim's side, she's gone with the bullying, which is not right."

Siggi has found out that the new channel Comedy Central (former channel was Viva Plus) will show Hannah's BBC show Blessed! It started Wednesday at 5:30 pm and will be shown every Wednesday. Other times are every Friday, 5:00 pm and 9:15 pm and Sunday, 1:45 am.

Former S Club star Bradley McIntosh has defended his ex-bandmate Jo O'Meara in the Big Brother race row, claiming "she's not racist". Pop star Jo is one of the housemates involved in the alleged racist bullying of Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty. But Bradley told BBC Radio Five Live he had known Jo for more than seven years, and was "surprised" she had become caught up in the row. He said: "I'm kind of disappointed in Jo. The whole thing seems to be dragging on and I know she's better than that. "If she's got a problem with someone or if there's any kind of issue then she'd normally confront the person, sort out the problem straight away and move on." He added he knew she was not ignorant, but he had been surprised at some of the things said. "Some of the things she's said I've just thought 'Oh my God, what have you said that for?'," he said. Bradley also said he would be shocked if she had been bullying a fellow housemate as she had suffered from the same problem during her school days - and it had almost caused her to take her own life. He said: "If it's bullying, that surprises me as well because Jo went through bullying when she was young. When she was in school, she was bullied and it affected her quite dramatically, to the point she almost took her own life."

Siggi found 2 interviews given by Andrew-Lee Potts. He told about his and Hannah's role:

“Abby Maitland played by Hannah Spearritt who is possibly the closest to my character within the show. I’m completely in love with her- who wouldn’t be, she’s amazing! – she knows this and she struggles with how she feels about me because I’m a bit of a geek. She works at the London Zoo at the Reptile House, so she knows all about the dinosaurs.”

Jo suffers from panic attacts and had one in CBB house. When she was asked what caused the attact, she answered: "Stress... and homesickness which I'm suffering a lot from just now". Poor Jo, I hope you'll be fine!

Shilpa Shetty is finding it tough in the CBB house Media watchdog Ofcom has received thousands of complaints about alleged racism in Celebrity Big Brother. Viewers believe Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty is being targeted by housemates Jade Goody, Danielle Lloyd and Jo O'Meara because she is Indian. Jade Goody's mother, Jackiey, repeatedly referred to Shilpa as "the Indian" while she was on the show and refused to pronounce her name. Over the weekend, former beauty queen Danielle Lloyd and ex-S Club 7 star Jo O'Meara poked fun at Shilpa's accent. Big Brother fans have been debating the racism question on websites. An Ofcom spokeswoman said: "We have had approximately 200 complaints of racism. Quite a lot of websites have been discussing the issue and urging people to get in contact with us. We will look into each individual complaint." Jade, Danielle and Jo have ganged up on Shilpa in recent days. When Shilpa tried to console Danielle after Carole Malone's eviction on Friday night, the girls were unimpressed. On Sunday night Shilpa ended up in floods of tears. She made a roast chicken for the group - only for Jo to refuse it. "I don't trust that chicken. I want to eat it but I'm scared," Jo complained, claiming it was undercooked and too spicy. Shilpa emerged from the bedroom hiding her eyes behind dark glasses. She put on a brave face, insisting: "This will make me into a stronger person."

A huge thank you for Jamie for scanning a Jo article in News Of The World magazine. Jo's ex boyfriend Ben Adams talks about their relationsship and their sex life.

It's the 10th Guess the song competition, I hope I'll get lots of correct answers! So check it out and take part!

Here is the article of lovely Hannah in Style magazine. Thanks to Forever Hannah Spearritt!



New life, new style
Hannah Spearritt: Since teen chart-toppers S Club 7 disbanded in 2003, Spearritt, 25, has transformed herself into a serious actress, landing juicy roles in sc-fi drama Primeval and the upcoming Miss Marple mystery At Bertram's Hotel.

THE DILEMMA: "My career has moved on - my wardrobe needs to as well."
"I was styled as the tomboy in S Club - I never really cared what I wore," says Spearritt, who was 17 when she joined the band. "I didn't have my own style." After the split, she tried extreme makeovers, from dreadlocks to corsets, but they did her no favours. "No one ever said it, but I knew my attempts to shake off my old image were losing me work as an actress," she says.

THE SOLUTION: try wearing dresses instead of suits for a smart but young look.
"There's nothing worse than feeling uncomfortable in auditions - if I wore a suit, yeah, I'd look older, but I'd feel like I was dressing up," says Spearritt, who goes for an edgy, layered look off-duty. She realised that knowledge is power: by hitting the high street and working out what suited her, she learnt to cherry-pick the pieces that looked good and, most importantly, made her feel good. "It's taken me a while to find my own way of doing things. I never used to wear dresses, but now I live in them. A simple jersey one with unusual accessories works well for my frame and for the image I want to present - a confident person but also a blank canvas for the casting director."

Jo O'Meara - When Celebrity Big Brother began, we were certain that Jo O'Meara had somehow absorbed the spirit of dear old dead Pauline Fowler into her body. She'd complain about everything; the way her last album failed, the way that she was breeding dogs for a living, the way that she was being forced to share a house with a journalist - but we might be over the worst now. Now instead of out-and-out complaining, Jo's Celebrity Big Brother experience seems to be comprised of a constant low-level grumbling and a slight regret that S Club 7 aren't still together. All this means that Jo O'Meara isn't the favourite to win Celebrity Big Brother that she once was by any means, which means that the S Club 7 reunion will never happen, which means we'll never get to see lovely Tina on our TV again. Damn you for your excessive misery, Jo! Current Celebrity Big Brother betting odds - 14/1

Girly chats? We got plenty of 'em. And when you've got the unholy trinity of Jade, Jo and Danielle cuddled up in the double bed together, a mess of bed-heads and pyjamas, you just know the topic of morning gossip is boys, boys, boys. Or in the case of this morning's chinwag, Jade's boy, boy, boy. Under cover of duvet last night, Jade and Jack were pretty active. We wouldn't want to confirm what went on between the happy couple. But we wouldn't want to deny it either. Unlike Jade. "Jack tried to have sex with me last night," she confessed to her chums as Jo and Danielle let out the pre-requisite squeaks and giggles. "So I jumped in here with you." "Did he?!" asked Jo. "Was he trying to put things in your back?" "He tried to put it in my ear," laughed Jade. "He should go to the shower, poor boy," joined in Danielle, and the three collapsed into more three-fold giggling. By this stage, Jack's burning ears pricked up. He gave the three a cursory glance. We've no idea what he was thinking, but we imagine 'those three' and 'bad news' might have come into it somewhere. "Jack's frustrations are setting in," said Jo. "I thought, if I turn round and face him it looks worse," continued Jade. "So I turned around and spooned him and thought 'no'." Yeah right. You can't hide your midnight rustlings from us, Jade.

Leo's got a real way with the ladies in the House. His constant jabbering, odd strops and potty mouth have endeared him to them like none of the other blokes. But maybe not in the way he'd like. "I really like Leo," began Jo, the 'but' hanging heavy in the air. "But when he walks towards me I find myself walking the other way." "I find with Leo he shouts you down and makes you listen. And I want to listen if I'm interested. I don't want to be forced," continued Jo.

Two celebrities have walked and speculation in the House is rife about possible new housemates. Now Jo is excited that it might be another S Clubber. With Jade, Jo, Danielle, Carole, and Cleo slumped on the cushions in the lounge, their girlie natter turned to crazy dreams that they've had in the House. "I swear on my life!" Jo blurted out, suddenly becoming very animated. "I was in there and I had a dream that [S Club bandmate] Bradley walked through those doors!" "And you've had an itchy nose!" Cleo quickly reminded her. We're not sure of the significance, but Jo obviously was, as she excitedly continued: "Yeah, and I've had an itchy nose! And I dreamed that Bradley walked through those doors! And I woke up and thought... 'I would love to have him in here!'"

Jo O'Meara - Back on Wednesday Jo O'Meara was the favourite to win Celebrity Big Brother, but things have quickly headed southwards for her. It's hard to put a finger on the exact reason why people have started to go off Jo O'Meara, but we sense that it's got something to do with her being a sour-faced complainy old hag all the sodding time. Jo threw a wobbly when she realised that Carol Malone was a journalist, then another one when she thought she had to share a bed with Donny Tourette, then another one when an S Club 7 song was played inside the house. We wouldn't be too upset if Jo O'Meara got the boot from Celebrity Big Brother; partly because all she does is grouch, and partly because every second Jo remains on Celebrity Big Brother is a second when we're reminded of those topless pictures of her that made us want to blind ourselves with gravel. Current Celebrity Big Brother betting odds - 8/1

Jo O'Meara - Jo O'Meara's got this whole Celebrity Big Brother thing sussed already, we think. Former members of cheesy pop groups always do well at this kind of thing, and - whether it's intentional or not - Jo's constant "Ooh, I'm so scared" schick can only help her win the public over. However, Jo O'Meara's Celebrity Big Brother VT interview proved that she can be a right moany old pissbag, so she'll have to keep that in check if she doesn't want to remind everyone that they all preferred Tina anyway. Current Celebrity Big Brother betting odds - 33/1

Jo O'Meara finally let the gruelling Manor task get to her when she burst into tears this lunchtime. The kitchen hand went with cook Cleo to Nowhere for some fresh air and a tearful Jo admitted she had "cracked". "I feel like everyone behind the scenes is like... 'gotcha'," she said. "I'm so tired. I thought the tasks were like a day. I didn't think it was going to be this. I've had my moment now... it's fine. They won. They broke me in." With a good cry over, Jo and Cleo joined Shilpa and Ian in the bedroom, where talk turned to fellow servant Leo. "Leo thinks they're after him," said Cleo. "He shouts at the cameras and swears at them. They're not after him though, it's just the way it is." "He's been rebellious," said Jo. "He's ripping phones out of walls." But not everyone is unhappy with the task. Housekeeper Dirk was told by Big Brother to "pot up and paint the Big Brother Manor's coat of arms", this morning, which kept him busy - and smiling. Head butler Carole walked into the garden to give the actor his instructions, including not allowing anyone else to help. "That'll keep you going. That's quite a nice job really," Carole told him. Dirk admirably set about potting and painting on his hands and knees, after getting pots of red and yellow fake pansies from the storeroom. "I'm potting up," he told himself. "That's cool."

It's Sunday again and the new Guess the song competition begins. So head over here and see how well you know S Club songs.

JO O’MEARA agreed to do Celebrity Big Brother because she is SKINT, we can reveal. The ex-S Club Seven singer, 27, is desperate to raise cash as her company, Milecraft Ventures, owes £34,000. It has been the subject of two County Court judgments in two years. A pal said: “Jo hasn’t had much luck since leaving S Club Seven. Her company’s not doing too well so she could really do with the £50,000 fee that Big Brother is paying her.” Jo has admitted in the house that things have not gone well since she quit the band. She now breeds dogs but confessed: “I don’t know if it was the right thing to do.” And she joked that she spends most of her time playing on slot machines in Romford, Essex.

After just one night in the house, Jo O'Meara has made a miraculous run in the betting from bottom of the pile to become bookies' favourite to win the show. The down-to-earth blonde from Essex entered the house to huge cheers from the crowd and is now tipped 5/1 to win Celebrity Big Brother alongside fellow singer Leo Sayer. Ladbrokes spokesman Nick Weinberg, said: "Leo and Jo are top of the charts, but we're still eagerly awaiting other arrivals." Jo, 27, is the former lead singer of S Club 7, but now breeds dogs for a living. Meanwhile 'Faceman' Dirk Benedict slipped down to third place with joint odds of 6/1 along with Ian 'H' Watkins from Steps. And tabloid journalist Carole Malone might regret being so opinionated in her Sunday Mirror column, as she dropped to bottom of the betting with odds of 25/1, after Jermaine Jackson and Danielle Lloyd who were joint on 20/1.

Jo O’Meara threw the first Celebrity Big Brother wobbler last night when one of S Club 7’s songs was played to the housemates. Jo wasn’t impressed at all as the others got up and danced and encouraged her to sing along to ‘Reach For The Stars’. She stomped off into another room and shouted at Ian ‘H’ Watkins. When the music had stopped she continued her huff saying to Big Brother: "I don't know what you've done that for." Someone’s obviously embarrassed by their past!

Here's a video where Jo tells about a little bit about herself, something cute about S Club 7 and you can see her lovely lovely puppies! Thanks to Jo Fans and YouTube!

And here are some more comments about being in BB house: "I'd just like the public to see me for who I am". Jo predicts she will be nominated early "because of my moaning, crying or being a pest".

Here's an official trailer for Hannah's Primeval:
