RICH YOUNG BRITS!
They weren’t even in the running last year but the members of Brit band sensation One Direction are the UK’s fifth richest celebs. Heat magazine's chart of rich, young celebrities revealed they have a whopping £26.33m ($42m) between them.
The number one spot is still held by Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe with £53.33m ($85m). Robert Pattinson and Kiera Knightley are the world’s second and third richest Brits. And while we wait for news of Adele’s baby, we can celebrate her massive rise - up ten places. The singer is said to be worth £26.06 ($41.5) million.

If you’re getting sick of watching talentless teens with edgy haircuts soaring to stardom on TV singing competitions maybe Simon Cowell’s new venture will tickle your fancy.
It’s reported that the music mogul is teaming up with Will.i.am to find the next internet guru. ‘X Factor for Tech’ will be a TV talent competition showcasing ideas from tech apprentices and although the details of the show are sketchy Will.i.am recently told the British media that it will be ‘out of this world.’ Find out more here: http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/technology/2012/10/x-factor-for-tech-simon-cowell-and-will-i-ams-next-show/ |
JESSE J
Jesse J is currently in LA working on her second project, the follow-up to 2011’s ‘Who You Are’. No doubt there’ll be a few US collaborations on the new album, which she’s recording in the same studio where her hits ‘Domino’ and ‘Price Tag’ were written. Jesse will be taking time out to enjoy one of America’s biggest holidays in a few days - she’s apparently really looking forward to celebrating Halloween over here.
