You won’t BELIEVE what they tell me!

Cilla Black left some of her money to animal charities, from what I hear. I told her not to leave me any. I have enough and all I want is the memories. But she loved dogs. She would have wanted to leave money for a shelter.

Paul O’Grady – who is the celebrity ambassador of the Battersea Dogs Home – hints to me, while at the Orangutan Appeal UK event at

the Commons, that his late best friend Cilla Black’s three sons will share their inheritance

with an animal shelter. Sean Connery’s Bond is sexier than Daniel Craig’s. When Daniel came out of the sea in those short shorts, I didn’t know where to look. It wasn’t sexy!’

Dame Shirley Bassey gives me her verdict on Bond. I can’t resist Daniel. He’s so sexy... and he’s such a good kisser! But current Bond Girl

Lea Seydoux, right, tells me at the Spectre premiere that she disagrees. It’s a question of not sticking anything dangerous up my nose apart from my fingers.

Simon Le Bon, at the Q Awards, lets me in on the secret of how he keeps his voice in such

good shape. I’m in the process of buying a flat here in England. Wait, not a flat, a house. A really big house. Seriously, it’s bigger than the Albert Hall!

Will.i.am reveals his property plans – and the

size of his ego – to me. I’ve been out for dinner with Bradley Cooper a couple of times, and he never seems to know what he wants. He orders all kinds of nonsense. Also, he doesn’t drink but always orders ginger ale, which is ridiculous.

Noel Gallagher lets rip about the Hollywood hunk’s dining habits – while talking to me at the premiere of Burnt, Bradley’s

film about being a chef.
