The Gossip:
1) We predicted a yellow brick styled red carpet for the Wizard of Oz opening night. But we walked a rainbow rug alongside finalists of the BBC talent show Over The Rainbow.
2) Judge on the talent contest Church (below) was looking fine in an LBD to see the winner of Over The Rainbow, Danielle Hope, make her West End debut.
3) Jodie Prenger, the winner of similar show I’d Do Anything, shared yesterday ‚Äúwhen she (Danielle) walks out on that stage you’ll see that they made such the right decision, ’cause she’s just going to shine‚Ķ And I can’t wait to see the dog, Toto.‚Äù
Always nice to see a bit of female solidarity ![]()
4) Barbara Windsor was also in attendance and seemed to enjoy the show. She’s certainly smiling broadly (below)
