Comeback queen

Britney Spears

' rumoured first single to be lifted from her upcoming album has leaked online.

Days after it was announced that the singer's sixth studio album,

Circus

, was to be rush-released in December, a website now claims to have its mitts on the

first single

.

Website

BritneySpearsCircusLeak.com

says the single

Candy

From Strangers

will be released first; which contradicts earlier reports that her first official single would be

Womanizer

, which had a Monday, Sept. 22 release date.

Danger, danger, candy from a stranger...

The cynic in me brands this 'leaked' track a bonafide joke. Although the vocals are reminiscent of Spears' helium-fuelled drawl, it all smacks of amateur fakery. But then again it could be an official 'leak' of a song that's so painfully crap, her people opted to release it on the 'Q.T.'

What do you guys think? Is this track really from Spears' new album?

Fakeout makeout

What do you do when the economy's on its knees and in dire need of a handout? Make out on live TV, obviously!

Shrunken assets

Harry Potter

star

Daniel Radcliffe

says he had a rather embarrassing problem when he appeared on stage in the nude.

His penis shrank "to the size of a hamster".

Radcliffe flashed his flesh as a kinky stable boy with a penchant for horses in the stage production of

Equus

last year, and says his nerves often got the better of him...and his poor John Thomas.

Of his bashful wand, he says: "You tighten up like a hamster. The first time it happened, I turned around and went, 'You know, there's a thousand people here and I don't think even one of them would expect you to look your best in this situation.'"

But the heartthrob says he actually felt comfortable being starkers in front of an audience.

"It never really was an issue. I don't know why, it probably should have been. I am terribly self-conscious. Although I remember I did look at my dad once and say, 'Do you think I could wear pants?'," he adds.

White heat

The White Stripes

frontman

Jack White

is not impressed with super-brand Coca Cola.

The singer's soon-to-be-released duet with Alicia Keys, a song called

Another Way To Die

which will be the theme tune to new James Bond flick

Quantum Of Solace

, appears as a soundtrack in a TV ad for the soft drink.

The problem? White wasn't told about the endorsement.

Regarding the promotional tie-in, White's mouthpiece says: "Jack White was commissioned by Sony Pictures to write a theme song for the James Bond film

Quantum Of Solace

, not for Coca Cola. Any other use of the song is based on decisions made by others, not by Jack White.

"We are disappointed that you first heard the song in a co-promotion for Coke Zero, rather than in its entirety."

No rap for grumpy pants

Notoriously antsy

Kanye West

is unlikely to face felony charges for his recent

paparazzi clash

at Los Angeles International Airport.

Word has it that despite his bad boy behavior, West's punishment will more than likely not exceed a polite slap on the wrist.

A source tells

nydailynews.com

: "The thing Kanye had was a detachable flash. It's not of felony value. It wasn't worth $400."

West was arrested by cops after the airport altercation, and faced allegations that he smashed a paparazzo's camera on the floor. The singer has so far declined to comment.

Love me don't

Ageing singer

Sir Paul McCartney

has apparently been threatened by suicide bombers who are furious that he's planning on performing his first ever concert in Israel.

British newspaper the

Daily Express

says that a "Self-styled preacher of hate Omar Bakri claimed the former Beatle's decision to take part in the Jewish state's 60th anniversary celebrations had made him an enemy of all Muslims."

Ooh, them there's fighting words.

Macca's said to be suitably unimpressed and unruffled by the death threats. The show must go on, boyo.

We're not that surprised at Macca's defiance, over here on cynical island. Remember, this is the man who married

Mucca

and lived to tell the tale...

Just wrong

Celebuspawn

Rumer Willis

used to have the hots for her now step-father

Ashton Kutcher

.

Eugh, and eugh.

The wannabe actress says her bedroom wall used to be plastered with pictures of Kutcher - until her mother

Demi Moore

started dating the serial prankster.

She tells British mag

Cosmopolitan

, "It was strange when mom, who is 15 years older than Ashton, started seeing him (in 2003). I was 15 and he was a heart-throb to me - I had pictures of him on my wall! I remember mom saying her new 'friend' was going to hang out with us. I said, 'What's his name?' and she said, 'its Ashton'. And I said, 'Whoa - Ashton Kutcher?' I freaked out a bit and blushed."

But Willis, 20, says she stopped lusting after Kutcher when she spotted how badly he'd fallen for mother Moore.

She adds, "I realised I'd never seen my mom happier. It was like watching two sixteen-year-olds going to the prom."

TMI, honey. Way, way TMI.

Chest wonderful

Black armbands at the ready, folks. Today is dark day...

Serial stripper

Mario Lopez

says his days of wanton chest flaunting are over. OVAH.

He tells

People

mag: "My shirtless photo-shoot days are behind me."

So no more shameless stripping of

this variety

Spoilsport.

Funny how his "covering-up" declaration follows news that he's signed up to become a 'serious' presenter for US celebrity news show

Extra

.

Ring-a-ding-ding?

Completely unreliable trash purveyor

Star

magazine says that cancer survivor

Christina Applegate

is engaged to her bass player boyf

Martyn Lenoble

.

Dutch boy Lenoble has reportedly been a tower of strength for Applegate as she battled cancer and underwent a double mastectomy in a bid to rid herself of the disease.

Applegate has since declared that she is "One hundred per cent cancer-free."

Star

claims that Lenoble recently proposed to Applegate, and that she has slowly warmed to the idea.

A snitch tells the mag: "He's [Lenoble] been asking her to marry him for months but was rejected - until now.

"Christina was incredibly touched by how he stepped up and took care of her."

"He opened up a bottle of [champagne], brought along a catered meal, put on some Sinatra and went for it.

The snitch adds: "Christina was overcome by his gesture, even though she wasn't ready to say yes."

If the fat fits

Desperate Housewives

star

Felicity Huffman

has put paid to escalating rumours that her co-star

Eva Longoria

is with child - insisting she's "just fat".

Longoria has been dogged by pregnancy rumours for months, and has issued umpteen denials that she's carrying hubby

Tony Parker

's baby.

"She's just fat, that's all there is to it!" a candid Huffman tells

People.com

.

Longoria has admitted that she's feeling the need to breed, but that her fuller figure is all down to her alter-ego's on-screen weight gain on the hit TV show.

The actress has not only piled on the pounds for the show's new season, she'll also don a fat suit to portray her character as an overworked housewife, set five years ahead of when viewers last saw the ladies of Wysteria Lane.

Hoffman adds: "She looks cute. But she's always like, 'Feel my a-! Feel my a-!' All the jokes [on set] are Eva and her fat suit."

Quote of the day

"I think when Hollywood is done with me, I will probably be done with it. I'm not interested in playing those stock characters any more and I don't feel sad that I don't get those kind of offers."

Weekly Wino

God, I've missed

Amy Winehouse

.

While I've been sunning myself in Welsh Wales, the Camden cracka$ has been keeping a low profile and limiting her random bouts of craziness to single digits.

Or so I thought...

My snitches tell me that Wino recently boycotted her surprise 25th birthday bash - because she took one look in the mirror and saw just how fugly she's become.

I'm not joking.

The

Daily Mail

reports that Wino gave her birthday bash at London's hot jazz venue, Jazz After Dark, a wide birth after she copped an eyeful of her skanky reflection in the mirror.

A snitch says: "Amy was standing in front of the mirror telling everyone how rough she looked. Unfortunately her lifestyle has had a major effect on her appearance and it has only just started to sink in. She kept saying she was ugly and was in an awful state. They couldn't get her out."

Then there's this hilarious tidbit about Wino and her incarcerated jailbird hubby

Blaaaaaake Fielder-Civil

.

British tab

The Sun

reports that Wino recently posted a snap of Blaaaaake exposing his manhood on her Facebook profile.

Amusingly, the tabloid teases us with the immortal words:

"Anyone wondering what Amy Winehouse could possibly still see in convicted criminal and druggie hubby Blake Fielder-Civil should take a look at the uncensored version of this  picture."

Mercifully, there's nary a sign of the uncensored pic. I mean, c'mon, there are some things we just don't need to be exposed to.

Everyone's talking about....

Blogger's brief

I'm back, babies! The homelands stint is over.

I promise I won't treat you like latchkey kids again.

Stand by for the usual round of shameless scandal-mongering, celebrity sideswiping,  and loose-lipped quipping. All in the best possible taste, obviously.

What can I say, you can't keep a good one down for long...
