• "Ricky Martin is a porcine Puerto Rican who has stormed into the number one slot ... I don't get it. He hasn't even got cheekbones ... Who are pop fans meant to lust after?

• "She's got the kind of face you'd never grow tired of slapping"
Charlie Catchpole on Calista Flockhart, aka Ally McBeal, Mirror

• "It amazes me, watching the British public when someone takes their clothes off. I show my bottom and there's a national outcry!"
TV presenter Gail Porter, Sun
