Brian McFadden rants on Twitter over Delta Goodrem's criticism of their relationship in Vogue Australia

Brian McFadden has posted a series of Twitter comments that appear to be an attack on ex Delta Goodrem after she opened up to Vogue Australia about their "amicable" 2011 split.


The 32-year-old Australia's Got Talent judge tweeted from Monday night's APRA Music Awards only hours after extracts from Delta's interview went online.


"Sometimes silence is golden. People love to try and deflect attention from their own downfalls onto others," he wrote.


"And for the record. I've seen it all before!!" he said in his next post, assumed to be referring to the nasty public spats between him and ex-wife Kerry Katona, who he once called a "pig-faced mole" (this is the mother of his two daughters).


He followed it up with a gush about current fiancée, Irish model-DJ Vogue Williams, "Randomly want to thank @VogueWilliams for making me the happiest man on the planet."


In the Vogue extracts, 27-year-old Delta revealed little about her seven-year relationship with Brian, other than the fact she was deeply unhappy before they broke up.


Goodrem, in her most candid interview yet about the split, told Vogue: "There is so much I'd like to say. I was really unhappy and I didn't know how to get out. I learned. I got there in the end."


McFadden - who has always maintained the split was amicable and described his ex as "one of God's living angels" - hit back in three seperate Twitter rants: "Sometimes silence is golden. People love to try and deflect attention from their own downfalls onto others," he wrote. "And for the record. I've seen it all before!! Randomly want to thank (fiancee) Vogue Williams for making me the happiest man on the planet."


Goodrem had "only good things" to report about her most recent boyfriend, toyboy Nick Jonas, 19, in the fashion magazine's cover story.


McFadden met Williams - who he will marry in coming months in Europe - in the months following his engagement breakdown.


Meanwhile Goodrem's musical comeback was once again in the spotlight yesterday, with comparisons drawn between a new B-side release called Uncovered with Kate Miller-Heidke's Last Day On Earth.

Australia takes lead in Afghanistan's Uruzgan

SYDNEY — Australia said Thursday it would take leadership of security in Afghanistan's southern Uruzgan province from the United States as it prepares to begin drawing down troops from the conflict.
Chief of defence forces David Hurley said the shift, which was approved by Canberra this week, would put Australia "in the driving seat" of a security handover to Afghan forces and withdrawal of its troops and equipment.
"This is a major operational phase. Having a strong voice in that process is very important," Hurley told reporters.
The United States would continue to provide support to the Australians, who work with Singapore and Slovakia in the restive Afghan province and will take lead responsibility in late 2012.
US troops have led operations in Uruzgan since the Netherlands withdrew from Afghanistan in 2010 -- the first NATO ally to do so.
The International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), the NATO-led force in Afghanistan, welcomed the announcement.
"Our gratitude goes out to the government of Prime Minister Julia Gillard and the Australian people, who have sacrificed so much in this conflict," said coalition commander John Allen, describing Australia as one of ISAF's closest allies.
Australia has some 1,550 troops stationed in Afghanistan with a focus on training and mentoring Afghan National Army soldiers in Uruzgan.

Brian McFadden

Brian Nicholas McFadden,born 12 April 1980 is an Irish singer-songwriter who rose to fame in the late 1990s as a member of the Irish boyband Westlife. He is now a judge on Australia's Got Talent. Use
Following his departure from Westlife, McFadden released his debut solo album, Irish Son which peaked within the top 5 on both the Danish and Irish Albums Charts, and produced his first two No. 1 solo singles "Real to Me" in four European countries and also "Almost Here", a duet with his now ex-fiancée Delta Goodrem which gained a platinum accreditation in Australia. "Like Only a Woman Can", the lead single from his second album, Set in Stone (2008), became his third No. 1 single as a solo artist. In 2010, McFadden scored his fourth No. 1 with the hit single, "Just Say So" featuring American rapper, Kevin Rudolf and gained his second Australian platinum accreditation. The single received a nomination at the 2010 ARIA Music Awards for Most Popular Australian Single.


On 25 February 2011, McFadden released a new single "Just the Way You Are (Drunk at the Bar)". The song has been criticised as a glorification of date rape. McFadden's cancelled the shooting of a proposal pop video for the song; McFadden asked that the song not be played on the radio and pledged via his Twitter account to donate all proceeds from the song to rape victims. "Just the Way You Are (Drunk at the Bar)" debuted on the ARIA Singles Chart at number sixty-one on 8 March 2011, and peaked at number forty-nine the next week. On Australia's Got Talent's fifth series' second episode, aired on 4 May 2011, McFadden agreed that he'd let a contestant (The Bandit) record a song on his new album.
In June 2011, McFadden appeared on Australian radio show The Kyle & Jackie O Show to launch both of his brand new singles Come Party and That's How Life Goes which was co-written by multi-platinum singer, songwriter and producer Ray Ruffin. Despite heavy promotion and appearances on TV shows like Dancing With the Stars the new singles have failed to impact the charts at all, which is surprising considering his high profile appearances on Australia's Got Talent. Some of this has been attributed to the negative press surrounding his previous single "Just the Way You Are (Drunk at the Bar)" and its glorification of rape. This, as well as his much-publicized split with Delta Goodrem, appear to have had a negative impact on his music career. There is speculation that the release of his fourth album may be put on hold. 
McFadden released his new single "Wrap My Arms" on 20 January 2012 in Australia.The track reached No. 12 on the ARIA Top 20 chart and was used in the Australian soap Home and Away.


Television and radio career
In 2008, McFadden took on the role of television presenter as co-host of FOX8's Football Superstar in Australia. He reprised his role for the second season in 2009. In August 2009, McFadden appeared as a guest judge on Australian Idol. In 2010, he became one of the new judges on Australia's Got Talent alongside Kyle Sandilands and Dannii Minogue.
In August 2008, GayNZ.com drew attention to a number of disparaging remarks about gays and lesbians McFadden made while he co-hosted the breakfast show on More FM in Auckland, New Zealand stating, "Saying pink is a form of red is the same as saying homosexual is a form of male. In the old days there was no such thing as gay. It was frowned upon. The church would burn you at the stake. Modern day, if you are not gay, a man should not be wearing pink. Unless of course you're in the Americas Cup and you're one of these pansies who walk around with Gant t-shirts with your collars up, and you wear pink and you wear white trousers with those dirty brown slip-on shoes. Then you're just an idiot. McFadden's comments made headlines in news reports, gossip websites and weblogs worldwide, provoking considerable condemnation from the LGBT community. He later denied he was homophobic, saying through his publicist that his comments had been "taken out of context". In late 2008, McFadden teamed up with singer Ricki-Lee Coulter and former Big Brother host Mike Goldman to present the Summer Breakfast Show on 2Day FM. In September 2009, McFadden returned to radio by co-hosting on the breakfast show on 2dayFM with Jackie O and Andrew G, replacing host Kyle Sandilands for a short period of time.


During 1998 and 1999, Brian dated Aqua singer Lene Nystrøm Rasted. After the split, he briefly dated S Club 7 singer Hannah Spearritt. McFadden married former Atomic Kitten singer Kerry Katona on 5 January 2002 in Rathfoe, County Dublin. They have two daughters: Molly Marie McFadden (born 31 August 2001) and Lilly-Sue McFadden (born 3 February 2003).
Katona and McFadden announced their separation in September 2004 and their divorce was finalised in December 2006. In 2004, McFadden began dating Australian singer and actress Delta Goodrem, with whom he collaborated on the duet "Almost Here". On 29 November 2007, McFadden announced his engagement to Goodrem. On 1 April 2011, their engagement was called off. Since May 2011, he has been together with Irish DJ and reality star Vogue Williams and their engagement was announced on 12 January 2012.

Flight soft drink can ‘bomb' mystery twist

Detectives investigating a simple soft drink can that forced a flight carrying 180 passengers into an emergency landing at Melbourne Airport have changed their minds about the case - again.


The captain of the Air Mauritius flight, which took off at 1.24pm (AEST) yesterday, made the decision to return to Melbourne Airport after the word "bomb" was apparently written on a soft drink can.


One of the first reports describing the mid-air emergency was that masking tape had been used to attach a piece of paper that stated "bomb" on the can.


No explosives were ever found.


But the next day the story had changed to one of a simple misunderstanding.


"It has been determined that no offence has been detected due to an initial misinterpretation of foreign lettering on the print of the can," a police spokeswoman said this morning.


A new police statement, however, said this evening that investigators had reached another interpretation of the suspicious little can.

Since 2009, Bingle has been heavily involved as a Ambassador for Bowel Cancer Australia. On 4 June 2010, Bingle officially launched the 2010, "Love My Family" ad campaign.

First review of reality TV series Being Lara Bingle

Watching the first episode of the 10-part series with a very cynical eye at Channel 10 HQ in Pyrmont yesterday, Confidential was surprised at how engagingly silly the oh-so-polarising 24-year-old managed to be.


Perhaps it's just the gossip columnist factor, such as this quote about former flame Danny "the love god" Cipriani: "He dropped me on my arse so fast my arse cheeks are still hurting.


Then there's the fact she doesn't look bathed in foundation during every close up, is described as a risk-taking thrillseeker, shows her dealings with the paparazzi and speaks openly about how much she "loves" sex. There's even a serious moment - believe it or not - when her grandmother berates her "disgusting" naked photo scandal.




She rarely looks at the camera, which is a clever way of coming across as natural and plenty does feel staged, especially a "are they/aren't they" romance subplot between live-in manager Hermione Underwood and unashamedly bogan brother Josh.


She is told she can't drive her vehicle home and, despite having Underwood with her - who does have a valid licence - the pair choose to leave the tank-like vehicle on the side of the road and do the walk of shame home past the waiting paparazzi whose motordrives go into overdrive.


Next up the nude picture scandal is exposed, or at least Bingle is, when the proof sheet of the controversial naked shots that were taken of her at the doors of her balcony, is flashed on screen - twice.


The pictures were the centre of a dispute some weeks ago - was she inside the house when they were taken? Did she know they were being snapped? Was her privacy invaded? Was she shown the shots before they were put out for sale to magazines? Were they part of a publicity stunt for the show?


Bingle, who has been involved in nude picture issues twice in the past, says it is "so confronting to see pictures of yourself nude."


Her manager/best friend Underwood sagely observes: "We just have to keep the blinds closed," adding, "We are just going to have to buy you some clothes."


But by far the most memorable appearance in the show comes in the form of Bingle's furious but forthright granny who does not appear on screen, but rather via a voice message left on the model's mobile phone.


She gives her bungle prone granddaughter the most almighty serve over the nude shots.

Christian Bale's horror date with Drew Barrymore

She revealed earlier this week that she knew her best friend Drew Barrymore was getting married even before she did.

And Cameron Diaz's close bond with her fellow actress was clear when she accompanied Drew to her final wedding dress fitting today.
The pair, who have known each other since they were teenagers, were spotted leaving the Chanel store in Beverly Hills with coy smiles on their faces.


Drew and fiancé Wil Kopelman, who picked up his attire in a garment bag, are due to tie the knot this weekend at her estate in Montecito, California - and Cameron is expected to be a bridesmaid at the ceremony.
The best pals were dressed casually as they left the fitting, with Cameron in a white T-shirt and aquamarine skinny jeans while the bride-to-be sported a baggy black top and boyfriend jeans, along with tan ankle boots.
Cameron revealed to InStyle magazine that Drew's fiancé sought her out before he popped the question to ask for her blessing to the union and said: 'I knew Drew was getting married before she did!'


It's easy to see why the two tried to get together, both were child stars, both worked with Steven Spielberg, both had trouble dealing with fame at an early age.
Bale's admission is a rare glimpse into his private life, with most of his interviews focusing on his work.
As for his love now, Bale has been married to his wife, Sandra Blazic, since 2000, and has a seven-year-old daughter. Barrymore on the other hand has been married twice, first to actor Jeremy Thomas and then to comedian Tom Green. Both marriages ended in quick divorces.
She is now expecting her first child and plans to marry her fiancé, Will Kopelman, later this year.
It's not known what the awful horror film was. Let's hope it wasn't Scream.
