By JO(E)ve! The boy got HOT...
Here's a few things we learnt about Joe McElderry on his recent LadMag cover shoot:
Number 1 - Joe's a proper nice bloke. Yes, we know he was always a total sweetheart on the X Factor, but that could have all been for the cameras. Turns out it wasn't. Joe was so lovely on our shoot he even signed a birthday card for a little girl who was looking on to take to her friend's birthday party the next day. All together now: "Awww!".
Number 2 - Joe likes a chicken salad. That's what he had for his lunch.

Number 3 - Joe still stops on the high street. And he loved the River Island outfit our Fashion Editor Jo styled him in so much he asked his mum if they could go out and buy it.
If you want to find out more about what went on behind the scenes on Joe McElderry's LadMag shoot then you'd better check out our exclusive video right here...
Love watching that video! Takes us right back to that lovely afternoon we spent with Joe...

ok i confess that this isnt all about Joe but first. he is hot, who cares if he's gay? it's not like any celeb is going to notice mortals like us, so it doesnt have any effect on us. Go LGBT. what i actually commented to say was that i think it was the same ladmag, some girl emailed in to say that she overheard some boys talking and they said 'was arsenal tube named after the football club.' How funny. or something along those lines, anyway, as a North-East Londoner the Arsenal football club is my local club and actually the tube station was named after the club. tube station: origianally 'Gillespie Road' have fun xx p.s. take your time over it.

I like Geordie accents. I know it sounds weird but I like experimenting with different accents and for the show I did in March I had to do a lot of accents including the Geordie Big Brother accent (I'm an Actress)
