Hunter goes on to tell the mag "some people compared pictures of me on the show to when I was extremely thin and suffering a lot of emotional problems."

Hurrah, our Rach! She doesn't like her arse, but who does? She's rich, with two healthy kids and a toyboy who's pretty easy on the eye. What's she got to worry about?

The source of the bitchy stories, uptight English tabloid The Daily Mail is renowned for its spiteful tirades against celebrities, calling Rachel ‘chunky' and ‘sturdy,' and labeled her defence of a bad camera angle ‘unwittingly hilarious.'

Clearly they'd prefer female celebs to be thin and unhinged than curvy and happy. Surely all the Daily Mail staffers must be long-limbed, elegant gazelles who've never put on a pound in their lives.

It's the same paper that called Princess Beatrice fat after snaps were taken of her holidaying in the Caribbean, with one columnist remarking that "the constant First Class travel, with chauffeured limousines, means that Beatrice spends too much time on her generous bottom."

Now, what's a possible princess in waiting to do while she hangs around for her fella over the English summer? Get a job? Don't be ridiculous, darling! The Day leads with a story saying ‘Waitey' Katie Middleton has become obsessed with her appearance.

Already a trim size six (a Kiwi eight) Kate has had her teeth cosmetically whitened, gone on a diet, and embarked on a strict exercise regime to distract herself from missing William.

But not having a source of income, apparently, can leave one rather in the lurch at times. The Day reports that a cab driver let Kate off with a kiss on the cheek when she couldn't stump up any cash. How far do you think that'd get us with Auckland's cabbies?

This week's prize for How Stupid Do You Think We Are goes to Peaches Geldof's camp, who tried to spin the celebrity brat's recent collapse and revival by paramedics at her north London home as resulting from ‘accidentally inhaling hair-dye fumes.'

The party girl was found unconscious getting mouth to mouth from a friend, and refused to go to the hospital. Which, naturally you would, if you were doing something as innocent as passing out while dying your hair.

What a crock of undies! Is that what they're calling an opiate overdose these days? Word out of England courtesy of News Of The World is that it was a heroin overdose, the same drug that killed Peaches' mother, Paula Yates.

Nicole Kidman's back to her Skinny Minnie self three weeks after giving birth. Wearing white, a daring choice for a new mama, Nicole looks pin thin on an outing with He Of The Thin Lips in the States. Pics in the Day.

But then, it's not surprising. Nicole hardly put on weight during the pregnancy, did she? Word is she was even at the gym the day before Sunday's birth. That would be Sunday. Because Sunday was born on a Monday. Confused? Me too.

Katie Holmes may be regretting turning down her role in the movie of the year on the advice of husband Tommy Girl Cruise, yet another reason why Tom Cruise should not be trusted. Let's start a Facebook group!

The Robo-Bride turned down the option of reprising her role of Rachel Dawes in Batman movie The Dark Knight, on the advice of her husband. Maggie Gyllenhaal answered the call, and the awesome flick is breaking box office records all over the world as we speak.

Word is Tom objected to love scenes in The Dark Knight and persuaded Katie to sign up for the disastrous comedy Mad Money instead. I've seen The Dark Knight, and I can't remember any love scenes. A couple of smooches with Aaron Eckhart's character, maybe? Definitely no major hanky panky.

How come Katie has to be pure as the driven snow on screen but Nicole Kidman was freely allowed to flash the flesh while she was Mrs Cruise?

If you've got an appetite for the smutty then check out the snaps of Balthazar Getty and Sienna Miller's lusty holiday in Italy flaunted for all the world to see. NW has the goods. Apparently they've been dating for two months, while Sienna was still dating Welshman Rhys Ifans, and the actress is said to be smitten. I'm sure the millions of dollars due to him in inheritance haven't swayed her at all.

Sienna shocked onlookers by 'canoodling semi-naked with her boyfriend right in front of her mother,' says the mag's source.

Sienna's dirty romantic antics have made her an outcast on the social scenes in London and LA. While Rhys Ifans' friends spurn her in England, across the pond Rosetta Getty's influential mates aren't rolling out the welcome mat for the actress in Los Angeles.

Now, put your hand up if you didn't see this coming, and I'll tell you to get with the program. Jennifer Aniston is frightening John Mayer off by coming on strong, says Woman's Day, a mere couple of months since they began dating.

Mayer has plenty of experience with the Hollywood ladies, Jessica Simpson, Cameron Diaz and Jennifer Love Hewitt among them, but he's less than forthcoming with praise for the former Mrs Brad Pitt. "She has the looks and the bank," the Day reports him saying, "but she is the most insecure girl I have ever met in my life."

Apparently when Mayer told Jen he was going to New York for a couple of days, her reply was "I'll go back to Los Angeles and start looking for furniture for our new place."

Clinger alert! The mag has accompanying snaps with the pair's body language broken down, and let's just say it's not looking good for Miz A.

NW reports that Brad and Angie are burning through over a million dollars a week keeping their brood of six in check. That's a lot of nappies, but I spose only the best graces the backsides of the holy six pack. With security, fancy ass transport and rent on their place in France, not to mention a nanny for each kid, living la vida Jolie-Pitt doesn't come cheap.

Trouble in paradise for Sarah Jessica Parker? All the mags are reporting unsubstantiated whispers that SJP's dandy husband, theatre and film actor Matthew Broderick, has been playing away from home with a 25-year-old. Do you think it's true? And do you care?

George Clooney's still pining for a lost love, his pet pig, Max, who died two years ago. "You can't replace a good pig," laments the 47-year-old in NW. "He was amazing. I still miss him, every day."

And, weirdly, Jay-Z takes the cake - or the fruit platter - for an odd request he made while on tour in Nigeria. "One giant watermelon was split in two and ornately carved into a mould of Beyonce's breasts," they report in NW. "Two cherries were used as nipples."

And that's all from the mags this week!
