Its not often I find myself agreeing with the loathsome and reptilian creature that is Germaine Greer. Many of you will know her as a ‘talking head’ that pops up on the ’Grumpy Old Women’ TV show.

She is the Australian accent droning feminist anarchic Marxist, that wrote the book ‘The Female Eunuch’, which was basically a rant against men, seeking to rally other similarly fat ugly females who can’t find husbands to her particular cause.

Asked about women in mainstream television she has commented about our nation’s current favourite of the month Cheryl Cole. Greer said “Cheryl Cole could never be a good female role model. There isn’t enough of her to go round - she’s too thin”.

Girls usually like make up - talking about boys - fluffy little kitten - Lambrini - make and bake sets and oeghan quigg.

But the thought of Greer who is basically a man in an unflattering 1930s floral pattern dress, and Cole spearheading the cause for greater female emancipation is intriguing. Maybe that’s why cheryl  daubed herself with such ugly tattoos in an attempt to defeminise herself.

X Factor - News - Diana Vickers Dumps Eoghan For Boyfriend Chris Jones.

HEARTBROKEN Eoghan Quigg will be lonely this Christmas after he was dumped by new love Diana Vickers.

The smitten teenager faced a double upset at the weekend after missing out on the X Factor crown to Alexandra Burke, 20 – and being jilted.

Blonde, ambitious Diana, 17, has told the Irish schoolboy she wants to concentrate on her career and has no time for romance with anyone.

But she has revealed she will spend some time over Christmas with her ex-boyfriend rather than 16-year-old heartthrob Eoghan.

Cheeky-faced Eoghan – who made no secret of his love for the babe from Blackburn, Lancs – is “stunned and crushed” by her decision, sources claim.

One insider said: “Eoghan is heartbroken. All his dreams have come crashing down in the space of a few hours.

“He has clearly fallen hook, line and sinker for Diana but she seems a bit more wary at the moment.

“They are both very young and perhaps a cooling-off period is not a bad thing.

“It seems clear that Diana still has a lot of unfinished issues with her ex Chris Jones, and Eoghan will be pushed into the background for now. It’s the news he does not want to hear.”

Eoghan got the push just hours after announcing he was having the best time of his life and he and Diana shared a kiss backstage before Saturday’s final.

On the eve of the final, show supremo Simon Cowell, 49, had gushed: “They’re just a couple of kids in love.” Eoghan was convinced Diana had ditched boyfriend Chris, 18, to be with him.

He boasted: “She’s a really lovely girl and we have got a strong bond together. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens. Maybe.”

But Diana broke his heart by revealing she would be spending time over Christmas with student Chris, from nearby Accrington.

She claimed: “Right now I’m not going to think about anything like that. I’m going to make sure I spend some time with Chris at Christmas, and who’s to say what’s going to happen in the future?

“I can’t wait to see Eoghan more … but I dunno what’s going to happen.

“There’s a difference between loving each other and being in love. I love him to bits …”

And she denied cheating on Chris with Eoghan, insisting: “I’m not a liar. I’ll tell Chris everything to do with me and Eoghan and I would never cheat on anyone in my life.

“It’s so much to think about – I’m just 17 and I need to think about my career and put my all into it without thinking about someone else and having a relationship.”

And, speaking of her feelings for Eoghan, who comes from Derry, Northern Ireland, she said: “He’s sensitive and very caring and considerate.

“He can be very silly too, though.”

Speaking about Chris, she said: “He’s going to go home and I’m going to stay in London, but I’ll be staying with Chris for christmas and we’ll see where it goes from there.”

X Factor - News - u.

Friends of X Factor loser Eoghan claim he is “stunned and crushed” by Vickers’ decision to spend more time with her ex-boyfriend instead.

It comes despite comments made by the show host Simon Cowell that the pair were “just a couple of kids in love”, and despite a picture of them sharing a passionate embrace after the final show on Saturday.

Quigg was beaten into third place in the reality television programme by winner Alexandra Burke and runners up boy band JLS.

The 16-year-old said that meeting Vickers, from Blackburn, Lancashire, was “the best experience” of his life.

Friends told the Daily Star of her decision: “Eoghan is heartbroken. All his dreams have come crashing down in the space of a few hours.

“He has clearly fallen hook, line and sinker for Diana but she seems a bit more wary at the moment.

“They are both very young and perhaps a cooling-off period is not a bad thing.

“It seems clear that Diana still has a lot of unfinished issues with her ex Chris Jones, and Eoghan will be pushed into the background for now. It’s the news he does not want to hear.”

Vickers has insisted she was not unfaithful to Jones, despite the widely-pictured kiss with her co-competitor from Derry, Northern Ireland.

“I’m not a liar. I’ll tell Chris everything to do with me and Eoghan and I would never cheat on anyone in my life,” she said.

“It’s so much to think about – I’m just 17 and I need to think about my career and put my all into it without thinking about someone else and having a relationship.

“Right now I’m not going to think about anything like that. I’m going to make sure I spend some time with Chris at Christmas, and who’s to say what’s going to happen in the future, I do love Chris with all my heart I loved Chris before the X Factor and I love Chris after the X Factor and will be spending Christmas with each other?”

Ireland declares eoghan quigg potato day

Ireland declares eoghan quigg potato day

Many x factor fans from northern Ireland have flooded our website with complaints that x factor promoters are charging an astonishing £31.50 to see the x factor live tour 2009.

So we’re exclusively revealing how you can see eoghan Quigg for free.

Go to your nearest Co Op, Sainsbury or TESCO.

Go to the fruit and vegetable aisle in the supermarket and pick up a potato. Draw a big grin on it with a felt tip pen and stick some ginger cat hair on the top.

This will be just like looking at the real thing and having your very own, lifelike eoghan Quigg for free.

Thousands of fans are lining up to be the first to see the x factor live tour which kicks off  in February in Aberdeen. Taking in 25 shows across the country.

But promoters are expressing caution that ticket sales may be effected due to this year’s x factor being the most controversial series, laden with allegations of vote rigging, conspiracy by judges to promote their own protégés with the best song choices, and not least, the bitter rumours of sex tapes and drugs.

After one of the most exciting finales of recent years, Alexandra burke was crowned as this year’s winner, only to see her reign already marred by shock newspaper stories of infidelity and husband stealing.

The tickets are priced at £28.50 except northern Ireland where they are £31.50. One disgruntled girl from Belfast, Kylie Minogue (no relation to the squid headed sister of x factor judge Danii Minogue) told us “I spent around £72 on phone calls speed dial voting for Oeghan Quigg. It’s a rip off they are charging us more than the rest of the UK to see him”

I couldn’t agree more with Miss Kylie. £31.50 is a lot of money to see a chubby faced boy with a dead ginger cat on his head and a woman who cries at every opportunity and steals other people’s husbands. If I wanted to see that for free, I could take a walk to our local unemployment office any day of the week, especially on Fridays when they hand out the social fund giro cheques to all the pikeys, for their weekend booze and cigarette supplies.

We all know that gay men tend to have more emotionally charged outbursts than the non gays. There’s a genetic hysteria gene in there that says turn up the waterworks. Eoghan Quigg, the chirpy potato faced Michelin man from Northern Ireland honoured those rivers of gay tears as he added his own ocean full on tonight’s show as he was booted off.

Despite his earlier chirpy air punching and cries of come on, he was squashed flatter than a pancake as he received his news that he was booted off the show. The false sincerity and fake emotions from surviving contestants JLS and Alexandra Burke but most notably from the judges, led me to feel the only real winners were the show’s producers. Doctor Dermott was there to pour on the false disappointments and lead the nauseating love ins.

Youngest contestant
The problem was, that despite the chirpy charm and the youngest finalist card being played at every opportunity, EUGHAN QUIGG is basically a singing potato with a dead cat on his head. Tonight, his clothes, jewellery and make up were all wrong on so many levels. The famous aerodynamic hairdo he has been wearing was in overdrive tonight ridiculously too big, ridiculously tousled into Christmas tree sized proportions.

Performance not good enough
He has been given the just reward due. The dream of show success is over. The verdict a damming one. His performance just wasn’t good enough and while it’s a shame to see a boy cry his eyes out on live television, how smug did JLSlook, knowing the golden haired one was thrown back to the ranks of the plebs, the wannabes, the vanquished.

No doubt a single and album will be forthcoming, but who remembers George Sampson (BGT winner) ? Flash in the pan like so many others trying to follow their Osmondesque dream of world domination.

He came, he saw, he Quigged.

Clearly trying to build him up into a Northern Irish Donny Osmond, the promoters picked a song that almost any bad karaoke singer could get away with. At his pre arranged cue and intro, they brought on Bozone singing their own song with gusto. Potato face could only stand and poke his tongue out at them and although comfortable in the middle of them, it was impossible to hear his voice above the cacophony of trumpets.

This was good planning by the promoters to drown him out with one of the best known and liked boy bands in history.  Ronan Keating said “He’s amazing and he’s Irish” Well actually, he’s from Northern Ireland and that’s part of the UK - he’s British so cut the Irish swamping issues Ronan.

They were only there because Take That refused to appear on the show because the rubbish Westlife were duetting with JLS.

Coronations are fantastic affairs - three generations have not witnessed a real coronation as our marvellous Queen Elizabeth II has been reigning for 50 years. They are full of drama, elation and wonder.

The nearest the ordinary mortal can come to such a crowning, is through shows like Xfactor where an eventual winner is crowned king or Queen of our hearts and repetitive strain dialling fingers.

This year we salute the winner  and what an unbelievable journey it has been.

Alexandra almost had an anxiety attack - it was more emotional and disjointed than the Oscars when Hale Berry almost wet herself pouring her heart out.  She cried more when she saw her pictured on her new CD released on Monday. She showed guts, determination and performed like a real professional. Voice breaking mid song into tears, she made me cry again.

I love this girl. The defeated finalists including the two timing diana Vickers swamped the stage in group hugs and a love in, but Alexandra kept singing it out as if God himself had kissed her and given her voice. It was moving, marvellous, magical. She is an inspiration and a role model. She truly deserved the win.

Inspired by the panic buying of the eoghan quigg doll, other X Factor celebrities are rushing to have one made in time for Christmas. We understand, the Cheryl Cole fashion doll will have only three items of clothing - a cheap tracksuit and cap, the TV show outfit of inappropriately matched sequins and scary man made fibres, and the little black number which is a short black dress which barely covers her coconut like bush. These outfits were based on her actual wardrobe contents. She only has three outfits. No doubt she’ll be wearing one of them in the awful Girls Aloud party that will be shown on ITV1 tomorrow night. Hopefully cheryl Tramp Stamp Cole will be locked in a cupboard minutes before the show starts.

With only two weeks left before Christmas lands on us and one day until the X Factor grand final, scenes of mayhem have been spotted in toy shops up and down Britain’s high streets, as pushy parents try to secure this season’s must have toy - a special limited edition Eoghan Quigg action doll.

Following other celebrities who have had their images cast into plastic (who could ever forget the hideous Spice Girl dolls), sales of these items are snapped up by pop culture aficionados and kids alike. The only one which was vaguely accurate in recent years, was the Victoria Bekham doll as it was as stick thin and plastic as she is in real life. A cross between an anorexic Barbie and the Sims.

Quigglet has given his endorsement to the doll which we picture here, saying “It looks just like me. Its amaaaaaaazin” although we aren’t sure whether the doll will become a must have carry about article, especially after dark.

Inspired by the panic buying of the Quigg doll, other X Factor celebrities are rushing to have one made in time for Christmas. We understand, the Cheryl Cole doll will have only three items of clothing - a cheap tracksuit and cap, the TV show outfit of inappropriately matched sequins and scary man made fibres, and the little black number which is a short black dress which barely covers her coconut like bush. These outfits were based on her actual wardrobe contents. She only has three outfits. No doubt she’ll be wearing one of them in the awful Girls Aloud party that will be shown on ITV1 tomorrow night. Hopefully Tramp Stamp Cole will be locked in a cupboard minutes before the show starts.

Lilliputian potato faced Quigg has been quiet in the past few days. Maybe Simon Cowell is desperately hoping his protégé can be boosted in the popularity stakes by remaining aloof. We hope he has joined up with the Scientologists and has actually been kidnapped by aliens. That way, we won’t have to see his retarded tongue poking routine again in tomorrow’s final. Remember star gazers, they say the truth is out there.

The Eoghan Quigg doll comes in a choice of two outfits - X Factor Second place and X Factor third place.
