Cycling ace ‘nearly killed by van driver’

- BY JOHN KELLY

CLOSE CALL Jason Kenny OLYMPIC cyclist Jason Kenny has told how he and his toddler son Albert were almost killed by a van driver while out riding.

Jason, 30, who has won a record six Olympic golds, confronted the man – who blamed him for the nearmiss on a country lane.

Jason wrote on Twitter: “On a Sunday afternoon ride with our 18 months old son only to be almost run over by a van driver who drove at us, then angrily inform[s] me it was my fault we nearly died.”

The Team GB star, married to fellow Olympic rider Laura Trott, was cycling near their home in Macclesfie­ld, Cheshire.

He added: “In his dense skull he believes he has right of way so he’s willing to kill? I’m ashamed to breathe the same air.” Daily Mirror Columnist

When you don’t need to compete for the spotlight, it is sometimes best to avoid getting caught in its glare…

Especially when your dress may have committed more fashion sins than anything since the moment Adam and Eve put on fig leaves.

If Kim Kardashian had been at the Oscars, that might have been her redemption. But this was Sunday’s Hollywood Beauty Awards – which no one who wasn’t at the Hollywood Beauty Awards has ever heard of.

Let’s face it, when you’re Kim Kardashian, there is no need for such desperate measures. This vintage Thierry Mugler number not only does not look nice – it looks actually painful.

When Nicole Scherzinge­r is less eccentrica­lly dressed than you, Kim, it’s officially time to worry.
