BORAT GETS BINNED

Hello and welcome to The Shock Exchange as mystery continues to swirl around the surprise marriage break-up of Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher.

The split is all the more intriguing because it was announced after Rebel Wilson named him as “the a**hole” in her book and made a string of eyebrow-raising claims against him (which he called “demonstrably false”).

Aussie actress Isla - who revealed they‘d jointly filed to end their “long tennis match” of a marriage - was seen without her wedding ring yesterday for the first time since the news.

I AM FIN

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s 15-year-old child has a new name, telling crowds at a memorial: “I am Fin.”

The teen, formerly known as Seraphina Rose, revealed the change as they wore a suit and tie to a service for Jennifer's father last weekend that was streamed on Facebook.

However, it is probably not all that new to the family (Ben and Jen also share daughter Violet and son Samuel) with Fin seen wearing a rucksack with the name stitched into it back in February.

 TAYL AS OLD AS TIME

Globally-famous DJ Calvin Harris’ wife Vick Hope loves little more than banging on Taylor Swift tracks when he’s away, saying: “Just a couple of songs, get it out of my system and then it's done."

Why only when he’s not there? Well, Taylor and Calvin dated for little over a year and it appeared not to end on the greatest of terms. She is thought to have written no fewer than four songs about their relationship.

And he accused her of trying to “tear” him down and even brought up her feud with Katy Perry. “I know you're off tour and you need someone new to try and bury like Katy… but I'm not that guy,” he wrote. Savage.

 9-0-POO-1-0

We’re not sure how this is possible but Tori Spelling has insisted she hasn’t done a poop without someone watching in nearly two years.

The former Beverly Hills 90210 star, 50, said the tradition started with ex-husband Dean McDermott but after they split (perhaps he got bored of watching her on the can) the stinky baton has been passed to her children.

She said on her podcast: “I haven't pooped, peed alone in 18 years. First it was Dean, then it was kids… I think I function better with people. Is that codependent? Yes. Cool.”

The truth is the truth, and we know what that is

Q: POP QUIZ

This week saw the final episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm, the Larry David sitcom that has been hailed one of the greatest comedies ever made.

But have you been paying attention since it started nearly a quarter of a century ago? Let’s find out.

  1. What is the name of Jeff and Susie’s daughter?

  2. Aside from Larry, who appears most often in the show?

  3. Who was the first celeb to appear in the show as themselves?

RICK HARD?

Onlookers at a Ricky Martin performance this week reckoned they could see his, erm, livin’ la vida loca.

The singer appeared as part of Madonna’s show where celebs join her onstage and judge her dancers - but after one was seen grinding on his lap, fans questioned whether Rick had an erection.

The star, 52, hasn’t commented on the speculation. And really, what can he even do about it? Perhaps take your clothes off and go dancing in the rain…

 RI-RI’S ON THE BUS

While fans wait for her much-anticipated next album, Rihanna has been giving her views on some of the most-listened songs of all time.

“The Wheels on the Bus is a favorite,” she explained. “That's just a classic. It's never going out of style.” Other bangers she cited included Incy Wincy Spider and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

Speaking in an interview about what her son RZA enjoys she added: “He's really into Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes.” If Rihanna’s first album in eight years is her singing nursery rhymes there is going to be a riot.

 HUDSON AWK

Oliver Hudson has said he cheated on his wife before their wedding, never got caught - and insists he doesn’t regret doing it. Oh god this is awkward.

But he added: “So do I regret it? I mean no, I guess not. I regret causing pain. I don’t want to cause anyone any pain.” But many fans had just one question: “WHY announce this to the world?”
