All the best of the day’s celebrity dirt.

EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt from the top to the very bottom.

Benedict Cumberbatch came face to face with his waxwork figure. While appearing as a guest on The Graham Norton Show, Cumberbatch met his wax figure, which was unveiled in Madame Tussauds this week.

Cumberbatch was appearing on the show alongside Timothy Spall, Miranda Hart and Adam Levine when he was introduced to his waxy doppelganger. The Daily Mail reports that he “made sure to examine it thoroughly while looking utterly bemused”.

The episode will be broadcast tonight.

Elsewhere in the chat show sphere, Lindsay Lohan refused to discuss her stint in prison while appearing on The Jonathan Ross Show. The actress is currently starring in a production of Speed The Plow in London and was asked about her time inside.

The actress was reportedly game to discuss the incident at first, but shut down when Ross probed her for information as to how long she spent locked up.

I have no idea. I’ve blocked it out. That’s in the past, OK? You are not putting this on the show.

Despite Lohan’s request, however, a spokesperson for the show confirmed to The Sun that none of her comments would be removed from the broadcast.

Awkward. (Heat)

As if we needed further evidence that she is a queen, it has been confirmed tht Meryl Streep loves Beyoncé. Hallelujah, praise the Lord, etc.

In an interview, screenwriter Diablo Cody stated that the actress showed her Beyoncé-related YouTube clips on the set of their new film, Ricki and the Flash.

She showed me this YouTube clip of people dancing to Beyoncé that I thought was pretty cool.

Meryl Streep: just like us. (Vanity Fair)
