Celeb in 5: Wednesday's best entertainment and gossip news.

 

1. The convincing evidence that Ali Oetjen ends up with no one on The Bachelorette.

A very incriminating theory has suggested Ali Oetjen does not find love in the 2018 season of The Bachelorette, and warning: THIS POST CONTAINS SPOILERS.

The Daily Mail has sourced a photo from a Bachelor fan’s Instagram Stories, which pictures Tait Radley and Todd King sitting in a Fijian airport, with Ali nowhere in sight, suggesting that she doesn’t pick either of them.

This combined with the fact that we’re already nearly 100 per cent sure Bill Goldsmith does not win The Bachelorette crown, makes us think Ali is currently still single.

The 31-year-old mechanical plumper has already been spotted filming scenes for Bachelor in Paradise, where he’ll join other confirmed castmates like Brooke Blurton, Cass Wood, Richie Strahan, Alex Nation and his fellow Bachelorette buddy Nathan Favro.

But, before we jump to conclusions, there are a couple of theories which could explain the photo:

1. The photos were taken some time ago and aren’t actually recent – however why Tait and Todd are sitting together in an airport, we cannot say.

2. This is an intentional move by The Bachelorette producers to dupe us into a trick ending.

3. Ali and her chosen contestant have already broken up after filming of The Bachelorette ended. :(

4. Ali pulls a Honey Badger and picks no-one (plz no).

5. Whoever Ali does end up choosing rejects her…

Whichever explanation it is, we’ll unfortunately have to wait till tomorrow to find out.

2. Victoria Beckham has hinted that she might join the Spice Girls on tour after all.

Posh Spice has given us what we want, what we really really want.

We think.

The fashion heavyweight and former Spice Girl broke precisely all of our hearts when she initially refused to join the Spice Girls for their UK tour next year.

(Even though she either had a very valid reason for it, or wasn’t even invited in the first place.)

BUT, it looks like our prayers to the nostalgic pop gods have been answered - and she might be joining the reunion after all.

How do we know this? She told us.

And by "she told us" we mean she liked a very telling comment on Instagram which we discovered through deep, deep lurking.

The mother-of-four posted a video of her acceptance speech after winning the Fashion Icon Award at the People's Choice Awards, in which she mentioned the Spice Girls several times.

But that's not all.

After posting the video, with the hashtag #girlpower no less, fans were quick to speculate in the comments whether she was hinting that she might be heading off on tour after all.

"I feel like this could be confirmation that she's joining the spice girls???" one person commented.

And then guess what happened?

She "liked" the comment.

Posh - you had us going there for a minute, you really did.*

*It is still unconfirmed whether Posh Spice actually is joining the tour. We just really want her to.

3. With one sweet Instagram post, Channing Tatum just confirmed he’s dating Jessie J.

Rumours that singer Jessie J and recently separated Channing Tatum are dating have been surfing the interwebs for a couple of months now.

With one Instagram photo, Tatum has basically confirmed they are a couple.

On Wednesday, the Magic Mike actor posted an image from Jessie J's London concert with the caption, "This woman just poured her heart out on stage at the Royal Albert Hall. Whoever was there got to witness something special. Wow."

The father-of-one also shared videos from the concert on his Instagram Stories. Sure, he could just really like Jessie J's music, but considering the singer shared images supporting Tatum's Magic Mike stage show last week on her Instagram account, we'd say the evidence to support their relationship is mounting.

Although we still have no clue how these two crossed paths, we're happy that they're happy.

4. The surprising profession Nicole Kidman was drawn to before becoming an actor.

It's hard to imagine Nicole Kidman being anything other than an actress.

Over the years, she's given us SO MANY great characters, from Satine in Moulin Rouge and Celeste from Big Little Lies to Sue in Lion, Virgina from The Hours... we literally don't have time to name them all.

However, in an interview with Allure, the 51-year-old said she quite liked the idea of a completely different profession before finding acting.

"I’m spiritual in that I absolutely believe in God... I loved the idea of being a nun," the mum-of-four said.

"Obviously, I did not choose to go that path, but I was very drawn to it."

For our own selfish reasons, we're really glad Kidman decided to make movies.

5. Matty J has apologised for an, um, accidentally rude selfie of him and Laura Byrne.

Nothing brings more joy than watching a dog greet its owner after not seeing them for a while.

Fact.

So when The Bachelor's Matty J posted a series of Instagram Story videos of him and Buster, Laura Byrne’s adorable three-legged dog, picking her up from the airport we were loving it.

They then posted a family selfie because, duh, but fans noticed that Buster seemed a tad uh, over-excited, resulting in Matty having to apologise for 'graphic content'.
