MTV Gives Kerry Katona the Pink Slip

katona__opt1.jpg

Fired again!

Kerry Katona's alcohol troubles have cost the Britwreck her MTV show, says the UK's Sun.

There are growing fears for her health so the show's been scrapped - for now.

MTV had planned to follow the former Atomic Kitten around Nashville, where she was going to attempt a music comeback. As a country music singer!

A network source told the tabloid, “Kerry is in no fit state to make a show. We have to wait and see how she fares in the immediate future. We want to see if she can start taking care of herself.”

Hope you're working with good professionals, Kerry.

Get it together!

Kerry Katona Admits to Alcoholism

kerry-got-work__opt.jpg

Look what happens when a celeb doesn't have a good PR gal/guy!

So last week, it was announced that the PR-less Brit trainwreck, Kerry Katona, was set to undergo a test to prove/disprove alcoholism because her $400K endorsement deal with UK food giant, Iceland, was in jeopardy.

After appearing 'wasted' on a Brit TV show, Kerry's employers 'asked' her to take said test in what appeared to be an effort to quell the outcries expressed by insulted customers.

Katona's meddling husband, former cabbie/dealer Mark Croft, said the following about the testing, "Iceland sorted everything out for us. They said: "We're concerned about Kerry, and want to make sure everything is fine."

But, come this weekend, Katona revealed in an interview:

"Four years ago I was diagnosed as an alcoholic after a stay in The Priory clinic. This is not common knowledge as I've never admitted it before. But this is a battle I will face for the rest of my life. I can get through days without a drink but it's hard. I never promise myself or my family that I can beat this addiction but I'll try bloody hard."

Is Iceland pissed that Kerry just didn't come clean to them?

This all could have been handled so much better!

We hope Kerry is getting help to stay sober.

Good luck, girl.

It's for the better!

Kerry Katona to Undergo Alcoholism Testing to Save $400K Endorsement Deal

katona.jpg

Britwreck Kerry Katona's future as the 'face' of UK frozen food giant Iceland rests on the results of an alcoholism test.

According to reports, the food company arranged for the test after they received a ton of angry complaints from customers about Katona's 'drunken', pathetic appearance on a live Brit morning show, which we talked about a few weeks ago.

Katona's meddling husband, former cabbie/dealer Mark Croft, revealed, "Iceland sorted everything out for us. They said: "We're concerned about Kerry, and want to make sure everything is fine."

An insider told the UK media, "Iceland have been shocked by the scale of the fall-out but are sticking by her for now - especially since she is appearing in a current series of ads."

Kerry's already lost one gig post the morning show debacle.

OK! Magazine dropped her highly paying weekly column just days after her controversial appearance.

If Iceland drops Kerry, does that mean Mark will go back to driving cabs to help make ends meet?

Fired!!!!!

kerry-got-work.jpg

Kerry Katona's career is taking a nose dive!

It started to fall on its own sword when Kerry made her wildly infamous appearance on This Morning with Phillip and Fern.

Yeah, you know the one.

Then, mere hours after Kerry fired her agent for opening his big fat mouth, OK! Magazine dropped her like a stone. And she may lose her Icelandic tv ad gig as well!

Katona got paid a sizable sum to "write" a weekly column for the mag. And she also appeared in a series of commercials for Iceland frozen foods.

A friend says, "She will be very worried. She relied on the magazine job for cash. She now only has hubby Mark to rely on."

We'd like to remind you that Mark was most recently employed as a taxi cab driver, and now he just drives Katona around!

And if that's not bad enough, social services has got its eye on Kerry's kids.

This is beginning to sound familiar.

Kerry Katona Fires PR Guy For Blabbing to the Tabloids

maxandkerry.jpg

Uh oh!

Max Clifford's blabbing to the British tabloid media cost him his Kerry Katona contract.

The PR man just issued the following statement: "She has asked that I no longer represent her. Reluctantly I have agreed and I wish her all the health and happiness. I think the world of her and wish her every success."

We mentioned earlier that in an interview that hit the newsstands early Tuesday, Clifford calls Kerry out for boozing it up and expresses concern about the controlling nature of her former cabbie/dealer husband, Mark.

We bet Mark made Kerry fire Max!

What a mess!

Kerry Katona's Publicist Says, "She's Not In a Good Place Right Now"

kerry.jpg

As we previously mentioned, last week, former Atomic Kitten Kerry Katona showed up to a live taping of a Brit morning show completely smashed.

And, now, her publicist, Max Clifford has just spoken out about the sorry state of Kerry's life.

She's definitely drinking and that her good-for-nothing husband, former cabbie/dealer Mark, is part of the reason why she's spiraling out of control.

Max says:

"All I can say is that from knowing Kerry as well as I do, I don't personally believe she is in a good place at the moment. What people who are around her tell me makes me increasingly worried. People around her are telling me that she is drinking more and more, earlier and earlier'… All I can say is that Mark was happy for Kerry to go on This Morning which says a lot. Mark is at the centre of Kerry's life and so you can't overestimate the effect he has on her life. She loves him to bits and therefore he has an impact on everything she does."

Another insider chatted with the tabloids and said, "She's turning to booze to block out her problems. Kerry's life has slowly been destroyed since she got together with Mark."

Max the paid mouthpice went on to say he hasn't spoken to Kerry since the disastrous morning interview because Kerry has been avoiding him. Although, he has told Mark that he'd like to meet up with Kerry, but nothing's been arranged.

Clifford wants to help her, but he feels powerless — he thinks there's only one person who really can help - and that's Kerry.

Hope Kerry sobers up soon and drops that Mark douchenozzle ASAP!

Kerry Katona Has More To Say

wenn5038412__opt1.jpg

So if you haven't seen this video, then you're missing out!

Yesterday, Brit trainwreck (former pop star turned reality TV whore) Kerry Katona showed up a hot slurring mess to This Morning, and hosts Fern and Philip pegged her for an alkieHOlic.

Now that we've had a day to talk about it, Kerry's pissed and has a few (Rambling) words to say in response to all the hoopla:

"I haven't got a booze problem. I haven't taken any drugs either. I'm drinking no more than I ever have done before and no more than anyone else. Don't get me wrong, I like a drink and all last week on holiday I was pissed as a fart. But why not? I'm only 28 years old for God's sake.

"Why would I go on a TV programme pissed, do I look stupid? I'll never go on that programme again, I'm extremely annoyed at how they made me look. They're meant to be nice people and I've been interviewed by them many times before. But I've got an illness and they should appreciate that. It's all down to the amount of tablets I'm on for my bi-polar disorder. I'm fine now, I was only like I was this morning because I took my tablets too late last night."

Her husband, Mark, confirmed that she did indeed take her crazy pills too late.

We don't care what you did Kerry, just keep it coming!!!

Kerry Katona SMASHED On Live British Morning Show!


Former Atomic Kitten member and current English reality TV whore, Kerry Katona, appeared ever the hot mess today on U.K. chat show This Morning, slurring through an interview with hosts Fern Britton and Philip Schofield.

We figured she was just being British.

Kerry was on This Morning to discuss an upcoming MTV show wherein she undergoes cosmetic surgery on camera to regain the figure she lost to pregnancy.

Or at least that was the plan.

Instead, Fern backs Kerry into a corner, and it suddenly seems more of an intervention than an interview, with Fern pressing Kerry regarding a recent saucy photoshoot with laddie mag Zoo Weekly, during which she drank a whole lot of champagne. And while Fern doesn't call Kerry an alcoholic outright, Kerry's flustered response sounds anything but sober.

Concerned viewers called in, one of the saying, "It's car crash TV - she looked and sounded utterly dreadful."

Dreadful is an understatement!

Kerry attempts to excuse herself, blaming her prescription medication for her drowsiness and insists that she's "absolutely fine" and has "never been happier." Fern and Philip have to content themselves with her word.

But things haven't been so easy for Kerry lately - drug addictions, premature births, rumors, rehab, bipolar disorder, bankruptcy, a home invasion and hostage situation, and consistently voted the "most irritating." That sort of stuff would make anyone want to hit the bottle once…or twice…or ten times.

Amy Wino's still got everyone beat on the other side of the pond!

Jordan Slamming

kerryjordan.jpg

Katie Price Jordan's ex-best friend is selling her out big time.

Ex-Atomic Kitten star turned reality TV whore Kerry Katona is reportedly so peeved at the former glamour model that she's told friends she may write a tell-all book about Jordan.

An insider revealed, "Kerry is furious about some of the things Jordan has said about her recently. She thinks she's insecure and hypocritical and wants the world to know who the real Jordan is."

Kerry and Jordan became good friends when they competed on the British reality show I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here. Kerry was even a bridesmaid in Jordan's wedding to Peter Andre.

Things went sour about a year ago when Jordan spoke out about Kerry's husband for confiscating her mobile phone so he could monitor her calls.

That is kinda creepy!

Anyway, things went downhill after that and the two traded blows via bitchy comments through the tabloids.

Most recently, Kerry and Jordan duked it out over the former glam girl's criticism of Jade Goody.

After Jordan slammed Jade for getting paid to talk about her cancer battle Kerry spoke out and said, "Jordan has had a pop at Jade for selling her story. I can't believe it - she's got cancer for f***'s sake! It's so hypocritical - everything Jordan does is in the papers. She feels the need to have an opinion about everyone else, but she sells her soul to the press, so why shouldn't other people?"

We're sure Jordan's lawyers would put up a nasty fight should Kerry pursue the book thing.

They should just wrestle it out!
