And Willow Smith pulls her face off to reveal . . . gasp! . . . Ailbhe Malone

TRACK OF THE WEEK

Check it Out by Nicki Minaj Will.I.Am. If you haven’t heard of Nicki Minaj yet, you’ve either been living under a rock – or you’re Louis Walsh (oh snap!). Nicki (below) is the most exciting thing to happen to US hip-hop since someone thought it would be a good idea to pit California and New York against each other. Nicki, a self-styled Harajuku Barbie, samples Video Killed the Radio Star while rapping about how she’s the freshest and most fly. And to be honest, she is.

Willow Smith has chosen her Halloween costume. And in the World’s Best Postmodern Twist, Willow Smith will be dressing up as . . . Willow Smith. “I’m gonna be myself,” she says, unveiling her master plan. “I’m gonna go around the neighbourhood saying, ‘Do you like Willow Smith?’ And then I’m gonna be like, ‘Ta-da! It’s me’.” Damn, she’s stolen our idea.

Ever since Posh joined Twitter (twitter.com/victoriabeckham) , she just keeps on giving. She’s since followed Willow Smith’s lead, and got into the Halloween spirit by posting (deep breath) a picture of her dog dressed up as a pumpkin. With matching painted green and orange claws. Never leave us, Posh.

Following on from last week’s Chezza/Ri-Ri rumours, Pop Corner can happily confirm that wheels are in motion for a collaboration. Gushes our Cheryl: “I couldn’t believe it when I heard Rihanna wanted to work with me. When I found out she wanted to collaborate, I got goosebumps all over.” She then calmed down, and added: “We’re definitely doing something together next year.”

Miley Cyrus isn’t going to be following Russell Brand and Katy Perry down the aisle any time soon. She’s mended her relationship with dreamy boyf Liam, but is keen to dispel any marriage rumours: “I’m way too driven right now, first of all I’m 17, it’s ridiculous, and second of all, I’ve got so much work I want to get done.”
