FUNNYMAN Paddy McGuinness is gunning for a “super reality” version of Take Me Out starring a Who’s Who of Z listers.

The ITV star, 43, said: “The one special I wouldn’t mind doing is where all the girls are from all the different reality shows – Towie, Made In Chelsea, The Valleys and all the others. Then we get the lads on too and mix it up a little bit. I think that would be interestin­g.”

Paddy also let slip producers have had meetings about a same-sex spinoff. “There’s been talk of it. I don’t know if we will but I’m open to anything when it comes to Take Me Out.” AMERICAN Idol star Jennifer Hudson has confessed she has trouble understand­ing British accents just weeks after joining the panel on The Voice.

The Dreamgirls babe admitted she had difficulty unscrambli­ng different dialects – particular­ly the Scottish twang.

In an interview with the Daily Star, she said: “I’m not catching what they’re saying.

“I don’t think it’s fair to go up to someone in their own country and say I don’t understand them so instead I whisper to will.i.am and ask him.”

The Oscar-winning actress, 35, below, joins rock singer Gavin Rossdale, will.i.am and Tom Jones on the rebooted show.

During auditions she was completely stumped when a Scots contestant talked to her.

Speaking about his accent, she joked: “It was so thick! I was like, ‘Oh my god!’ Then I caught a word and it helped me to understand. But it’s a process, and that’s another hard part.”

The Voice starts on ITV next year.
