Sometimes I get jealous of the Brits because they have better pejoratives than Americans. “Slag” is a word that gets thrown around a lot on Britain, but no so much in America. I guess the American equivalent is “slut” or something. But “slag” just feels nastier, dirtier, more insulting. I was reminded of this when I was reading some of the coverage of Kelly Brook’s latest scandal. Kelly is a “glamour model” in the UK, and she has somewhat of a fanbase internationally too, mostly because she’s got that girl-next-store prettiness plus an absolutely fantastic, curvy body with perhaps the best natural rack in the world. Kelly started up with a guy named Danny Cipriani last year – Danny had previously dated Katie Price, so that should tell you something about Danny. But the current scandal is that Kelly caught Danny sexting SIX other women. And some of them were “motherly slags”. Oh… this is going to get good.
Furious Kelly Brook raged at boyfriend Danny Cipriani after discovering he had cheated with SIX women, it was claimed. Actress Kelly, 33, “hit the roof” after discovering the saucy messages and naked pictures on the 25-year-old’s phone.
She then set about ringing at least six of the women whose details she found on his phone and even sent the girls naked pictures of Danny’s “other women”, it was said. Actress Kelly, 33, reportedly bellowed at one: “You are just one of many.”
According to The Sun sent Stacey a picture of a girl called “Jenna” naked on a bed. With it was the message: “Your (sic) in good company.” When Stacey asked who the girl was, Kelly texted: “Someone Danny is f******. One of many”.
Stacey Simcox, one of those whose details were said to have been found on Cipriani’s phone, claimed she had been rung up by Kelly. Stacey, 25, of Birmingham, claims Kelly asked her if she was “another one he’s been f******”, it was reported.
Stacey, who said she had never met Cipriani, it was reported, claimed Kelly said some of the girls “were all slags and some were motherly”. She claimed Kelly told her she was in the motherly bracket.
Kelly was ranting and raging, it was reported, and Stacey claimed: “You could tell she was really upset.”
Kelly had texted Stacey posing as Cipriani and asking to meet up, it was claimed. Stacey said Kelly sent her a steamy picture of a woman lying naked on a bed, said to have come from Cipriani’s phone. But Stacey replied asking who the girl was, and the actress texted back, “Someone Danny is f******. One of many,” it was alleged.
Model Kelly, 33, had rekindled her relationship with Cipriani this year.
In May, Kelly was involved in a war of words on Twitter with nemesis Katie Price – who briefly dated Danny in October 2011 – with the mother-of-three claiming Danny will “never be faithful”.
Yesterday Cipriani’s spokesman declined to comment.
In case you couldn’t get the hang of the Brit-speak, the gist of it is that Kelly found all of these photos of naked women on Danny’s phone, so she decided to call all of them and send each woman photos of all of the other women on his phone. Kelly also told off the women, insulting them and calling them “slags” and “motherly” (which I assume is some kind of major burn in Britain).
Now, Kelly is all of 33 years old. She really should know better, I would think. I’m giving her a slight pass because I think she was caught up in the moment, perhaps she had just discovered the wealth of slag-tastic photos on Danny’s phone. But still… this is juvenile. At least it seems like Kelly did make a clean break – the UK tabloids report that Kelly kicked Danny out of her house last weekend, and Danny has been begging Kelly for forgiveness. Pretty much any random dude off the street would treat Kelly better than Danny, so I hope she just cuts her losses and finds another (better) boyfriend.

Danny is both a sportman and in his twenties. Would anyone in their right mind expect fidelity?! I hate to typecast, but let’s face it; the evidence is overwhelming. This is a dude that was hit by a bus whilst on the lash a few months ago, nice to see his brush with death has resulted in such maturity! What a bell-end.
With all due respect thats a bullshit excuse. Aaron Taylor Johnson is a handsome young actor, who i am sure have had women throwing themselves at him yet he is able to maintain a stable relationship. What about the Thom guy Kelly dated before Danny, he is a sportsman and frankly much better looking than Danny and he just got engaged. Danny is a known cad in london. He has ruined his once promising career to go boozing it up. Last time i heard he was so drunk he ran into a bus and landed in hospital. The guy is dumb as a rock.
Oh don’t get me wrong, DEFINITELY no excuse, but so so likely as an outcome in the circumstances! Nice to see the near death experience resulted in a ‘Road to Damascus’ experience for young Danny. If the ‘Road to Damascus’ is a text of you peen to a busty stranger.
+1 to him being a bellend ( love that word) and also haha to him being knocked down by a “parked” bus (I know, I’m mean)
Karma’s a bitch-right Kelly?
She cheated on her ex with this ‘slag’….
If that’s true then my sympathy is all gone for her. She’s still really, really pretty though!
that’s just a ‘boys will be boys’ excuse – can we stop making excuses for cheating men?!
This woman has no idea how to dress her body which is a tragedy.
Really? I like the way she dresses. How is she supposed to dress out of curiosity?
Maybe she likes her curves and wants to accentuate them. I do, although I don’t like her outfit in the first one. Imo, more men are instinctively more attracted to women her size and plus some than your average model/celebrity. Yes, skinny looks better in a bikini or po®n, and other women covet thinness, but thicker is known to feel better intimately to a man, and even though the last few generations have been shown thin women in the media as the majority of pin-ups and beauties, men are hard wired to be attracted to healthy and curvy.

Kelly knows exactly how to dress. She is gorgeous. Notice in the top pic with the striped top that she is wearing a full size bra. Not bra-less or some skimpy bra. A full on big ol’ bra to hold those puppies in.
She hot. Dump the dude Kells. You can do so much better.
I’m with you. This is not a woman I’ve ever looked at and thought, “She doesn’t know how to dress her body.” I usually think she looks pretty cute and modestly attired. Excluding promotional shots and the like, she even wears somewhat modest/supportive swimwear in her own time (compared to other young celebrities).
Although now that I see the artful dodger’s comment, I can agree that she does dress a little too frumpy sometimes.
you’re right dodger-it is tragic…
she is clueless.
I was thinking that she doesnt accentuate her curves enough. She has the most enviable figure of anyone I have ever seen and she often looks frumpy. She hides her natural waist line which is common when you have a high/short waist and full hips and boobs. And spaghetti straps? Good grief… not with that chest!
I am only speaking from experience because I have a similar shape. It took me years to migrate out of the loose shift dresses with spaghetti straps and billowy shirts with tapered pants. Those styles look much better on long and slender women.
The white and blue denim jean outfits she’s wearing in the above photos are fine, but the orange floral dress and other girlie dresses she sometimes are hideously wrong for her mature, sexy figure. I do appreciate her showcasing her beautiful, pale skin.
You got all that waiting at home (because dang she is pretty) and you still gotta go out there and–
I don’t get it. I’ll never get cheaters and I’m kind of glad I don’t.
“You got all that waiting at home (because dang she is pretty) and you still gotta go out there and–”
Because Howard Stern said it best “Show me a hot woman and I’ll show you a man who’s tired of f_c_ing her.”
Studies have shown cheaters are mostly sick of themselves when they cheat. Which makes sense because cheating is about being selfish and needing validation.
They only got together this January. Surely it would take more than 6 months to get tired of fu–ing someone as gorgeous as Kelly?!
@sageM, sometimes it’s more than about just looks.
I knew a guy who broke up with this girl because when they had sex all she did was just lay there, military was the only thing that worked for her.
@ V4Real: …a “starfish” if you will 😉
Maybe you mean missionary? I have to google that military style!
Sounds rough.
She’s so damn pretty and what a body.
Agreed. Gorgeous figure.
She was probably just reacting rather than thinking and acting. I give her a pass, she must have been very hurt.
I have no clue about any of these people but what she did sounds about right to me. I am all for blaming the dude who is cheating but a text or a phone call to his randoms who probably thought they were the shit strikes me as more cathartic than juvenile. Ok, it’s both, but I give her a thumb’s up for the move.
Yeah, not gonna lie – striking out like that would be my first instinct too. Hell hath no fury…
Didn’t she dump that Thom Evans guy to get back with Danny? Looks like Thom is having a good laugh now.
I have no idea what she means by motherly (older than her? Something to do with less fit bodies than her?) and I’m British.
You’re right about slag being much nastier in tone than slut. I wouldn’t expect a woman to say it about another woman unless they’d really lost control of their mouths at the point they said it. It’s um… a low-rent insult when used woman-to-woman.
On a Cipriani note – I’ve met him briefly a couple of times a while back (brother and in-laws involved with Wasps, one of his old rugby clubs) and he is a bit of a douche. But a personable one, IYFKWIM.
PS: and I can’t stand Brooks. But I shan’t call her a slag. So there!
Me either. I’m feeling guiltily Schadenfreude-y here.
“Slag” is such a vile word, but isn’t she from Essex? It’s used a lot there.
Not sure where she’s from – but perhaps the Essex was coming out?
My one interaction with her came during her season on Strictly (Dancing with the Idiots). I would like to stress that I was in the habit of taking the sprogs, who were babies at the time, to parents’ for tea on Saturdays. Parents like ballroom. No other reason for watching! I swear with a Jelly Tot on top! She was possibly the single most annoying person I’ve ever watched. On anything.
*side eye*
I vaguely remember her from the Big Breakfast. It was a bit before my time.
Whenever I hear that word, I have Essex flashbacks to my misspent youth growing up near Basildon. Essex-style, it’s actually pronounced “slaaaaaaaaaaaaahg.”
(Side-eye filed. Again! Note to self: must do better.)
We West Londoners drawl it out, too. Glaswegians smack it out but can make it sound suitably offensive. I need to get a Geordie and a Brummie to call me a slag to see if they can do it right. I know the country boys and girls I live among now could never say it properly!
Label me American but slag to me sounds like something you would call a lazy person. Go get a job you slag.
ha ha, it works either way really
Man-to-man, it can mean that. But man-to-man it’d just be a general working class-type insult here. Ray Winstone is famous for saying it (in films). But woman-to-woman it means tart/slut/ho but without any possibility of a tongue in the cheek, or humour, or, say reclaiming of insult (see the N word or the C word). Nothing like that. Woman-to-woman it’s just nasty.
It’s not offensive to call someone motherly. I presume she just means old and… not in good shape… (reflecting his mummy issues)
She’s no spring chicken though.
LOL well didn’t Miss Brook “cheat” on Thom Evans as in dropping him like a hot potato to run back to Danny? Anyway, it still sucks… I know it’s generalizing and not all of them men are like that but still, how do women expect sports men husbands/boyfriends to be faithful?
She also left Jason Stratham for Billy Zane. She’s certainly on the record confirming that there was an “overlap”.
“…and Stacey claimed: “You could tell she was really upset.””
LOL…ya think? Der.
It’s early, but that made me laugh pretty hard. Ok, coffee time.
Danny cipriani is a douche and not very bright, too boot he isnt even that hot. Kelly was seriously stupid about this boy.
I love her insults and I too agree I love the words Brits throw out there. That being said I would never give someone the satisfaction or power over me that way. If my man did that to me there would be no years and no discussion. I would be out of there in a heartbeat as calmly as possible. He would cease to exist. No phone calls or texts about how hurt I am. Also the pics of her boyfriend just scream douche and anyone who dates someone who dated either of the Lyndsay’s (Price or Lohan) is sort of asking for it.
To be honest, I think that what she did was quite tame and not that juvenile. She didn’t trash his stuff or do some sort of public dumping/billboard thing.
Granted, while in normal circumstances, the girls may not have been aware he was cheating on someone (and on them, if he was with multiple women) but he is well known and was in a high profile relationship so it’s a pretty safe bet that they knew he was dating someone.
I don’t agree with the single women getting all the flack for this while the BF/Husband walks away unscathed, that’s bullshit quite frankly…(VB I’m looking at YOU) and calling the girls names probably made her feel better for all of 10 seconds, but at least she showed them that not only was he cheating on her but also on them.
I would love her body…that is all
What idiot in their right mind would cheat on Kelly. She ain’t as hot as she was 15 yrs ago, but she will do. after a hard day at work, do you want to come home to a tired aging housewife, or a sexpot with legs, boobs, & the right man-pleasing attitude.
Date someone older, Kelly. Stop with the boy toys.
She looks very much like one of the actresses who did Kotex and Kelloggs commercials back in the day.
HAAAAaaaa…… !!!
OMG! Dude is stupid! Kelly Brook is absolutely to die for gorgeous! Rid yourself of the idiot and find a nice, appreciative man.
HA! I love the fact she sent all the women naked photos of the others! If that makes me juvenile, so be it! 🙂
This woman also was with Jason Statham and left him for Billy Zane who dumped her.
Who?
She’s a pretty girl….not beautiful but very pretty and her body is gorgeous and sexy. I just don’t get why she’d be w a 25 year old boy and not a 30 something man. How is she even attracted to someone that age?
If women in general could just assume it’s a good idea to stay away from Jordan’s cast-offs, the world would be a happier place.
Why is it so hard to believe that just because someone is gorgeous they would never be cheated on or dumped? Don’t get me wrong, cheating is never ok, but none of us know what kind of person she is. Men are not that stupid and one dimensional. She could be a colassal pain in the a$$, demeaning, cold, no one knows. Of course that’s reason to break up with someone, not cheat, but just because someone is great to look at does not mean they are a great partner or a great person.
IMO, the Brits do not have better pejoratives. To my ears, “slut” sounds worse than “slag,” but to each her own.
She’s an idiot. Cipriani is a douche. Both will never change, it’s a pattern that can’t be denied.
She dated Statham for years and cheated on him while they were living together. She eventually choose her jump-off (Billy Zane).
Then came Cipriani very quickly too. Girl hardly takes a break in between long term (min 3 years) relationships and I get the feeling they all bleed into each other.
Then Thom Evans who she had a miscarriage with very early in the relationship. It was rumoured (and confirmed!) she was still seeing Cipriani ‘as friends’ even during his Katie Price stint which explains the catfight between them.
Evans was a good guy and seeing his recent gf, he was really hung up on Brook because they could be twins.
It’s sad she dumped him to go back to that dog Cipriani within mere DAYS so yeah, girl had it coming. She’s definitely no saint and they deserve each other.
Furthermore, at her age and experience with various types of men, I’m surprised she’s still a dumbass in the dating department. Especially after she gloated so hard to Price by posting lovey dovey shots of her and Cipriani whenever she got the chance even though the dude is no price. The fact that she thinks she’s besting Price is pitiful. She needs to grow up.
I don’t want to slutshame her or anything, so I won’t call her a slag. Perhaps there’s some sort of slang for someone who is not quite a slut, but “likes to have a good time”? LOL
That’s typically what we call a man.
this proves once again that women are not cheated on because they’re not good enough.
Kelly is one of the most beautiful women in the world, and even her boyfriend cheated. it has nothing to do with ‘she must have been prettier than me’ nope. that’s not it. sleezy guys will be sleezy no matter what, doesn’t matter who they’re with.
men who ‘change’ and decide to become monogamous, do it because they decided to-not because of the woman they’re with. you can’t ‘make’ another adult do anything.
OK first of all, seriously, why in the heck would you ever cheat on a woman who has quite frankly a perfect body? Is she bad in bed or is a terrible person? If so then break up with her and move on, otherwise, at least in the beauty department you can’t do any better than Kelly Brook. She seems pleasant too, always see her smiling in pictures, even candid ones. She just needs to find a guy who isn’t a jerk and probably not in the “business” either. And like date someone your own age, there are plenty of good looking guys out there that are in their thirties. That guy who cheated on her is a total dumb*ss who doesn’t deserve her.
Slag is such an insult. I would really wince if u was called a slag. Slut for me means someone who doesn’t clean up very often as in ‘for god sake wash your dishes you slut’
I must say I laughed at motherly as an insult. Frankly in England you can use any word as an insult. It is probably the only country where being called an intellectual is perjorative.
She has also been absolutely battered in the UK press for being fat in the past few weeks. It is awful really, she is far from fat and she has been really criticised for being so (in a similar manner to Kate Upton).
That’s kinda funny, because whenever someone describes Kate to me as curvy I usually say no, Kate is more of top-heavy while Kelly is the perfect example of curvy.
I’m not liking what I see about her character, but man I love her body. I’m kinda shaped like she is-with the same high waist, but my boobs aren’t as big. But she always looks so pretty, and she looks really young. Just looking at pictures, I would assume she’s early twenties.
What are the chances of these two getting back together a third time? Considering their dating histories, they’re actually quite perfect for each other. I can’t believe I used to find Danny hot.
Side note: Josh Bowman and him are tight. Good thing Josh doesn’t seem to have picked up any of Danny’s relationship habits.
I love the black pumps, mary janes, they are? Maybe i wouldn’t have worn them with that summery, floral dress, but I love them!
