Katie Hopkins said suspending Jeremy Clarkson is like 'hanging the Queen'... it's The Dredge

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.

Katie Hopkins has weighed in on the ongoing Jeremy Clarkson saga and she’s on his side, because of course. In a column for The Sun, Hopkins likened the BBC’s suspension of the Top Gear presenter to “hanging the queen”.

Hopkins also described the beleaguered Clarkson as a “national treasure” and urged the BBC to “stop playing who’s got the biggest willy”.

It’s not the first time that Hopkins has leapt to Clarkson’s defence.

She has repeatedly used the hashtag #TopBloke in tweets about the Top Gear presenter (we see what you did there, Katie) and urged people to have a sense of humour about the old punching situation that landed Clarkson in hot water.

Birds of a feather, etc. (3AM)

Dermot O’Leary is dancing for 24 hours straight in aid of Comic Relief. The X Factor host is about 13 hours into the stint and even danced on BBC Weather this morning.

Needless to say, it was delightful.

This Serbian popstar is accusing Kim Kardashian of stealing her look. Jelena Karleusa reckons that Kimmy is looked to her as a bit of a style inspiration and posted side-by-side photos on Instagram to prove her point.

Karleusa captioned the image “Will the real slim shady stand up #Illtakeitasacompliment”. Sweet, sweet shade.

In fairness, it is pretty uncanny. (US Weekly)
