Britney: Lies, Lies and More Lies
November 20, 2007 by Jo Minor · Leave a Comment
The cat is out of the bag: all that BS about Britney being a virgin finally came to a rest. Apparently the singer lost her virginity at 14 with her ?first love? Reg Jones ? years before she was dating Justin Timberlake.
?
The best part of all: depression and mental instability run in the Spears family! And her grandma committed suicide ? with a shotgun in a grave ? in 1966. The story goes that her grandma gave birth to a baby that died 3 days after childbirth. The emotional toll on her was too much, and she took her own life.
?
Wow. Tragic.

The Jackson 5: Reuniting in 2008?
November 19, 2007 by Jo Minor · Leave a Comment
Rumours of the Jackson 5 reuniting in 2008 have been sparked off by promoter Leonard Rowe, who was responsible for Michael Jackson?s Off The Wall tour in the late 70s/early 80s.
?
He apparently said this to Access Atlanta: “His brothers are ready. Janet is ready. But the motor of that car that makes the car run, isn’t just yet.”
?
We hope his royal highness? nose doesn?t drop off in the middle of a complicated dance routine!

Bin Laden isn?t gonna be too pleased about this!
?
MTV, the global entertainment network, launched MTV Arabia over the weekend. The channel will play 60% of their music from the international scene, with 40% local music. We hope to see many scantily clad Arabian chicks!
No Ho Ho Ho
November 15, 2007 by Jo Minor · Leave a Comment
This has to be some of the most ridiculous news coming from the world of age-old music. Santa Claus? in Sydney, Australia?s biggest city (they have cities there?) have been urged to quit chanting their signature ?Ho ho ho? and instead carry on their ridiculous part-time jobs saying ?Ha ha ha?.
?
Some people ? and we?re guessing it?s one of those feminist types ? have stated that the word ?ho? is offensive. We think it?s not! Music censorship has really hit the fan with this!

The KISS Rubik?s Cube
November 13, 2007 by Jo Minor · Leave a Comment
Yes, you read it right. After years of creating unnecessary and totally irrelevant merchandise to suck more money from their fans? bottomless pockets, the hottest band in the world - KISS - has announced their own Rubik?s Cube.
?
Unimaginatively named the KISS Rubik?s Cube, the puzzle will contain the band members? solo faces artwork as well as band icons and logos.
?
The original Rubik?s Cube was invented by Erno Rubik, a Hungarian sculptor and professor of architecture, and is believed to be the world?s best selling toy - with over 300,000,000 Rubik?s Cube and cheaply made imitations sold worldwide since its invention in 1974.
?
I personally believe that the KISS bass player and resident money grabber Gene Simmons is behind this ploy, and I also believe that he is kicking himself for not thinking of this any sooner.
Keith Richards: ?I DID Snort My Dad?s Ashes?
November 12, 2007 by Jo Minor · Leave a Comment
What a loony.
?
In an exclusive interview with NME.com, Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones admitted that he had indeed snorted his late father?s ashes that were kept in an urn. He earlier claimed that he was misquoted, in an attempt by his publicists to quash the story.
?
Richards, who claims that he will live to the age of 150, revealed that he did snort his father?s ashes but did not mix the ashes with cocaine, as earlier reported.
?
?The cocaine bit was rubbish?I said I chopped him up like cocaine, not with?, the man said. Richards apparently pulled the lid of the urn when some of the ashes got onto the dinner table.
?
?I pulled the lid off and out comes a bit of dad on the dining room table?, Richards continued. What happened next would be downright disgusting in many people?s books, but we?re talking about the walking chemical lab here.
?
Richards might not live to celebrate his 150th birthday, and he can thank a part of his father for it.
