Roll out the red carpet on Downing Street as there could well be a new Prime Minister in town. Over 100,000 MSN readers voted for their choice to lead the country, with Simon Cowell clinching 21% of the online electorate. However, the poll on MSN Entertainment was not quite a landslide victory for Simon, as the absolutely fabulous Joanna Lumley secured 20% of the vote.

Responding to the news, Joanna said: "I am so touched I can't tell you but strangely the answer is no. I have had a look close up at what MPs do, the responsibility on their shoulders and how hard all of them, no matter which party they are in, no matter what position they've got, they work absolutely ceaselessly".

With expenses revelations rocking Westminster, David Cameron calling for a snap general election and Esther Rantzen threatening to wade into the political ring, it may well be a good time to abandon party politics altogether and give the British public what it seems to want. If Arnold Schwarzenegger can be Governor of California then why not Simon Cowell at No.10 Downing Street?

I also think that third placed Sir Trevor McDonald (17%) would make a good PM. However, it seems that super-chef Delia Smith failed to convince the public of her leadership qualities, finishing last with a measly 1% (1,015) of votes, while the middle ground was fought out between mountain-climbing Radio One DJ Chris Moyles (9%), controversial comedian Russell Brand (8%), and pop princess Cheryl Cole (8%).

Simon Cowell’s ex-girlfriend has been attacked by an angry fan.

Terri Seymour was leaving a taping of American Idol when a woman approached and demanded to know if she was dating Cowell.

According to reports, the suspect then grabbed Terri and allegedly attempted to choke her. Security guards alerted police who took the woman into custody. The Los Angeles Police Department has since confirmed that 33-year-old Janice Thibodeaux is being held on $52,700 bail.

Terri refused medical treatment and was escorted home by police officers.

She and Simon split in November after a six-year relationship but are still very close.

Peter Andre has used his column in New! magazine to slam rumours that his split from Katie Price is a publicity stunt.

Writing from Cyprus where he is spending time with his brothers, Pete said: "I would like to take this opportunity to set the record straight about one thing. You may have read or heard that this is a publicity stunt, but I can assure you it’s not. How anyone could think I would pretend to split up from my wife to grab headlines is beyond me. It’s just sick."

Pete seemed to hint that the pair might reconcile when he wrote: "Everything is up in the air at the moment but I am writing this from Cyprus as I came here to get away and spend some time with my family."

Both Katie and Peter are expected to return to London on Thursday to discuss custody arrangements for their three children. The glamour model has been in the Maldives with Junior and Princess since the split.

The man photographed partying with Katie Price in a club in Bristol last Friday night has revealed he is gay.

It’s thought the photos, published in The Sun, were the last straw for Peter Andre, who left his wife on Monday May 11. He had previously admitted he didn’t trust Katie when she was drinking.

Top dressage rider Spencer Wilton has spoken out to dispel reports that Katie, a keen horse rider, had been up to anything untoward. "A big group of us had all been at Badminton Horse Trials for the day and went out for dinner afterwards and then on to a club,” Wilton told Horse and Hound magazine. "They [the tabloids] know exactly who I am and have chosen to ignore that and the fact that I'm already in a happy relationship with a male partner. My phone hasn't stopped with papers and magazines calling, but it's obviously a lot worse for Katie – I just really hope she and Peter are able to resolve their differences."

Peter Andre and Katie Price are to separate after three and a half years of marriage.

The split was confirmed in a statement from their management, Can Associates Limited, who also asked that the media respect their privacy at this difficult time.

The couple’s constant squabbling has been there for all to see on their successful ITV2 series Katie & Peter, but the shock still comes as a massive surprise.

Pictures in The Sun on Monday showed Katie flashing her chest while surrounded by men on a solo night out at Bristol club Syndicate recently, and Peter has made no secret of the fact that he worries about his wife’s drinking.

Late last night Katie released the following statement, confirming that it was Peter who initiated the split: “Pete is the love of my life and my life. We have children together and I am devastated and disappointed by his decision to separate and divorce me, as I married him for life. This is not what I want and the decision has been taken out of my hands. I will not comment further or do any interviews regarding the separation, but I will always love my Pete.”

Katie has temporarily left the country with her two youngest children - Junior, three, and Princess, one. Six-year-old Harvey, her son from a previous relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke, is being cared for by a nanny.

We recently spoke to Katie and Peter and asked them about rumours of a marriage split. Here’s what they had to say

Leona Lewis has found herself a new LA mansion, and a sleek new look to go with it.

The down-to-earth star has ditched her two-bedroom flat in Hackney in east London to move into a £1.5m villa in the Hollywood Hills, just a few miles from mentor Simon Cowell’s mansion.

The X Factor winner is renting the luxury home for £7,000 a month while she records and promotes her new album – which could mean more than a year away from the UK. The mansion includes five bedrooms, its own swimming pool and outside bar – perfect for entertaining Leona’s new American celebrity pals.

The starlet debuted a polished new look at a fashion party at the Live! on Sunset boutique in West Hollywood last night, with a new straight blonde do. She also flashed more flesh than usual, in a Herve Leger black figure-hugging bandage dress. Looking good, girl!

Princes William and Harry play a starring role in a video made by their father, the Prince of Wales, to promote his Rainforest Project.

The young princes introduce themselves simply as William and Harry and explain they are trying to save the environment “for all of us”. Watch the video now

But the princes aren’t the only famous faces to appear in the 90-second clip – Daniel Craig, Joss Stone and even the Dalai Lama team up with a CGI Amazon frog to highlight the dangerous consequences of deforestation. With the digitally-created frog sitting on his shoulder, Harrison Ford claims to be a “friend of frogs,” while Robin Williams says he is a “comedian, cyclist and frog translator”.

There is even a special appearance at the end of the video by the world’s most famous frog. No, not Crazy Frog, Kermit the Frog.
