Troubled singer Amy Winehouse has launched a bizarre attack against music mogul Simon Cowell - blaming him for all the world’s evils.

The Back to Black hitmaker mocked the American Idol judge’s hairstyle, and criticised his treatment of contestants on U.K. TV talent show The X Factor.

She also blasted his fellow X Factor judge - Australian singer Dannii Minogue - for her behaviour on the show.

American Idol judge Paula Abdul is reportedly in talks to star in a new cheerleader-themed show in Las Vegas.

According to the National Enquirer, the former Los Angeles Lakers cheerleader is in negotiations with executives at several Sin City casinos to headline a stage show that would open late next year.

DJ Samantha Ronson has hit out at the anti-fur activist who heaved a bag of flour over her girlfriend Lindsay Lohan on Saturday, calling the culprit “an animal”.

Ronson and Lohan were making their way into Paris nightclub VIP Room when the protestor pelted the Mean Girls actress, wrapped in a mink stole, with a flour bomb.

The offender cried out: “Lindsay Lohan - fur hag!” while the fuming Mean Girls star hurried indoors to clean up, yelling, “Oh my God!”
