'HE WAS USING HER'
Caroline Flack’s pals reveal why she decided to call it quits with Apprentice reject Andrew Brady
CAROLINE Flack won’t want her relationship with Apprentice reject Andrew Brady on her CV.
I can reveal the Love Island host gave Andrew his P45 after accusing him of dating her to solely boost his profile.

She believes Andrew, who was the lowest paid contestant on this year’s Celebrity Big Brother, orchestrated cameras to capture a number of their date nights in an attempt to have his face plastered across the internet.
And given the cheating rumours which have overshadowed the two-month romance of the pair, she decided the relationship was never going to last.
A source said: “Caroline has never had photographers outside her house before but suddenly they were ready to take her picture whenever Andrew was there.
“He always made sure he looked good and would play up to the cameras. But all she wanted was for their romance to be as private as possible.

“The trust between them had gone after a girl claimed she kissed him on a night out and there had been several occasions where his side of the story about what had happened with other women during his personal appearances at clubs just didn’t ring true. Her friends are furious at the way she has been treated.”
For some reason Caroline has been unlucky in love. Her relationships which have failed to last include those with Sam Smith’s manager Jack Street and illustrator Blue Logan. She has also dated Harry Styles and Prince Harry.

The pair go head to head on US show Lip Sync Battle tomorrow, but while Rita got to transform into Mel B in her Spice Girls heyday, Charli had a less glamorous option.
She was given a ginger wig and facial hair to become Ed Sheeran, wiggling her bum and mouthing the words to Shape Of You.
But it was Charli’s dance moves that really impressed judge Boy George.
Charli XCX is unrecognisible as she transforms into Ed Sheeran on Lip Sync Battle
In a teaser clip online, he tells her: “I’ve never seen Ed do those moves. Now I’m going to feel cheated when I go and see him. He needs to dance like you, it was amazing.”
Rita performed the girl group’s debut hit Wannabe in a leopard-print outfit like Mel sported on stage at the 1997 Brit Awards while performing the tune, inset above.
Scary Spice has nothing on Rita.

Pop's tops for Rihanna
FOR anyone missing Rihanna’s pop past, I have good news.
After straying into solid R&B for eighth album Anti in 2016, she will return to the music that made her a superstar on her next record.

I wasn’t a fan of Anti, and neither were you judging by the fact it only reached No7 in the charts. But now Rihanna wants to recreate the success she had with 2010’s hit-packed Loud.
A source close to the singer said: “Rihanna loved Anti but knows it wasn’t anywhere near as successful as her previous albums.
“She sat down with management and decided she needs to go back to what people love.”
They talk a lot of sense.
