Miley Cyrus: Shock as pop star dances provocatively in bikini

twat

EVERYONE is talking about Miley Cyrus today. Why? Well, in a move which is incredibly unusual for pop stars, she danced provocatively while wearing not many clothes while singing a song.

Astonishing, huh?

Her now notorious performance at the MTV VMAs has, mystifyingly, drawn complaints… especially from a parenting pressure group over in America.

The Parents Television Council (PTC, who never complain about anything, honest) issued a complaint against the channel over the 20-year-old’s routine and said that the show should not have been rated as suitable for 14 year olds, adding: “Heads should roll at MTV.”

SOPHIE Anderton is the former British celebrity billed at various times in her career as a supermodel, face of the  2006’s National Egg Awareness Campaign and coke-snorting prostitute. She is now featuring on Celebrity Big Brother. The much-missed News of the World exposed the sex for sale thus:

In a sensational secret rendezvous with a News of the World undercover man, the leggy supermodel STRIPPED to her G-string and Christian Louboutin stilettos and spread herself across the bed.

“I’m great at sex,” Sophie bragged as she beckoned our reporter to romp with her. “I’ll be a lot of fun. I’ll look great on your fucking arm. I’m a supermodel.”

Channel 4 turns One Direction fans into its latest freak show

Liam Payne (left) and Harry Styles of One Direction meet fans outside Radio 1 in London.

NO-ONE loves music more than teenagers and, no-one loves One Direction more than teenager girls. With that, Channel 4 decided to air a documentary about 1D’s fans, painting them in a less than flattering light. That’s Channel 4’s forte at the minute, mocking people who need a council house, can’t speak English, are part of the travelling community and people on benefits.

If you’re working class or foreign in Britain, you can thank Channel 4 for turning your social media feeds into something akin to a UKIP rally.

Jeremy Paxman issues beard statement to the pognophobic BBC

PD*68567868

THERE has been quite the hubbub about Jeremy Paxman and his beard this week, with some people near-orgasmic in praise, while others somersaulting in disgust.

The real news is that, current affairs aren’t as interesting as a TV titan growing a bit of fuzz.

Worinelve! The latest instalment of Wolverine, apparently…

wolverine

DOES anyone fancy going to the cinema to watch Human Ghjac in the latest blockbuster, Worinelve? Obviously, you haven’t heard of either of those things, but look at the photo of this prime cock-up and you’ll learn more.

And there we have it, a bus-sized balls-up where one advertiser will be annoyed at Stagecoach making a hash of their paid-for advertising… although, with this surely on the cusp of going viral, maybe we’ll see all future film ads being garbled in such a manner.

Now, where can we get Human Ghjac’s autograph?

Matt Damon loves public schools enough to sends his children private

Actor Matt Damon arrives at the world premiere of "Elysium" at the Regency Village Theater on Wednesday, Aug. 7, 2013 in Los Angeles. (Photo by Jordan Strauss/Invision/AP)

MATT Damon – compare and contrast:

August 2011:

Matt Damon addresses the Save Our Schools march on the Ellipse near the White House to protest the Obama administration’s education policies that are centered on standardized tests.

“I flew overnight from Vancouver to be with you today. I landed in New York a few hours ago and caught a flight down here because I needed to tell you all in person that I think you’re awesome. I was raised by a teacher. My mother is a professor of early childhood education. And from the time I went to kindergarten through my senior year in high school, I went to public schools. I wouldn’t trade that education and experience for anything.

“…I can’t imagine how demoralized you must feel. But I came here today to deliver an important message to you: As I get older, I appreciate more and more the teachers that I had growing up. And I’m not alone. There are millions of people just like me… You have an army of regular people standing right behind you, and our appreciation for what you do is so deeply felt. We love you, we thank you and we will always have your back.”

How to troll Daily Mail bridge lurker Samthana Brick

NOT everyone enjoys trolling the web for reader comments? Samantha Brick , Jan Moir and pretty much every other Daily Mail columnist has tolling as their Raison d’être. Charlie Brooker has quit his Guardian column because the paper’s editor, Alan Rusbridger ,would not agree to have reader  comments to his articles turned off.

But not all respondents are yellow-eyed loons. Some just don’t hold much truck with a writer’s views, or just want to lampoon someone who makes a living form giving their opinion.

Simon Cowell and Lauren Silverman: The baby cover version begins its journey

IN encouraging news for David Icke’s pursuit of lizard people: Simon Cowell is to be a father. News is that a Lauren Silverman is carrying his child. The paper are full of news that Cowell has slept with a woman.

Lauren is married to Andrew Silverman, 37. The couple have a seven-year-old son. The papers are in agreement that he is Cowell’s friend. So close are they that the The New York Post says Cowell gets a leading role in Silverman’s divorce papers; the husband claims their marriage fell apart due to Lauren’s adultery.

Can it be that Cowell’s entire life is about cover versions, even his lovers? Whatever else happens, it’s going to be an incredible journey. And get a load of those ratings:

Simon Cowell’s unborn baby was conceived the night of the Britain’s Got Talent final, the Sunday People can reveal.

Meet The Silvermans

The Daily Mail quotes an Andrew Silverman family source, who is already taking sides:

“Andrew’s taking it day by day, he’s pretty calm today.The whole thing is upsetting, but he’s sucked it up and put his feelings aside so he can be with his son – that’s his priority. They both decided to stay in the same house for Adam.”

The Mail then features a paparazzi photos of Mr Silverman at his home:

Looking stressed and tense, he told reporters: ‘This is a very difficult time. Please keep your distance’.

Lauren duly issues a statement:

“I am committed to sorting things out with Andrew as amicably as possible to ensure the well-being of our son. I would hope for some space and privacy in order to work through this.”

So. Here’s  Rosa Davis, who is married to Lauren’s father Steven, to shed light:

“I speak with Lauren every day. She is doing fine but she has a lot to face, a lot of stuff to cope with and her pregnancy too. The main concern for her right now is her son, Adam, and her baby. This baby is not guilty of anything. Babies come into the world and all we can do is receive them with joy. We are a very close family and we always support our kids through the good times and the bad times. You can ask anyone any of our friends.”

That question to you, Simon Cowell.

And then  we hear from Stewart Eisenberg, Lauren’s stepfather in that big happy family. He is now divorced form Lauren’s mother:

“I think he is smitten and overwhelmed by Lauren as she is with him. She was not too happy in her marriage and got swept away. I mean she had the money but you can’t cuddle up to five Gucci bags and a credit card or take them under your arm when you go out to dinner.I don’t think either one intended to plant the seed, but I think they will rise to the occasion and make everything all right.”

What about Simon’s old flames?

The Daily Star tells readers:

A STRING of Cowell’s ex-girlfriends and female supporters – dubbed “Simon’s Angels” by neighbours – paid private visits to his Hollywood Hills mansion on Friday to offer him their shoulders to cry on…

For example:

Former fiancée and TV make-up artist Mezhgan Hussainy, 38, was first to arrive…

She’s a rock. Or as the HuffPost reports:

Simon Cowell’s ex-fiancee Mezhgan Hussainy is reported to be ‘furious’ after it was alleged the ‘X Factor’ boss is to become a father with his friend’s wife, Lauren Silverman.

The Daily Mail says 80s pop star Sinita “burst into tears” upon hearing the news, and allegedly said, “it should have been me”. She then tweeted is soap opera style:

“Something has just happened … half miracle, half nightmare!” 

 

What about the money?

The Express says:

Simon Cowell has offered a £63million deal, spread over 21 years, to the married socialite who is expecting their child, sources close to the TV tycoon revealed yesterday.

A senior legal source told the Sunday Express: “Simon isn’t going to dispute that he is the father but the last thing he wants is for his name and reputation to be publicly dragged through the dirt.

“The truth is, he doesn’t yet know whether he will end up marrying Lauren somewhere down the line in years to come but, in the meantime, he wants to ensure he does the right thing for her and their baby as well as resolving this mess.”

 

The Show

What does talent show judge Kelly Rowland think of it:

“He’s going to be a great dad. He will be a classic father figure.”

To which the Mail shouts:

EXCLUSIVE: Simon Cowell jets off on month-long break to St Tropez with friends to escape furore of married pregnant lover

Classic.

 

And Lauren Silverman?

lauren silverman

The NY Daily News says:

Lauren Silverman (left above) was just 16 when she engaged in a red-hot affair with a well-liked English teacher at the exclusive Miami Country Day School, former classmates told The News.
“They were having a two-month sexual affair,” a former classmate said. “Everybody in the upper school knew what was going on. It was a huge deal, especially for a little private school.”
Silverman’s secret dalliance with handsome Steve Lewis, who was also the junior varsity football coach, was said to have included after-hours trysts in his classroom.

The teacher was 26. Now Silverman is 36 – or 37, if you read the Star. Cowell is 53. Make the link:

That lust for older men has gotten Lauren Silverman in trouble again some 20 years later — only this time, it’s far more public.

 

The Sea-Sickness

And now? A source in the Mirror sets the scene:

Simon’s pal said: “We were docked at St James on his boat. Simon was reading a magazine when Lauren came up and started rubbing his hair, massaging him and whispering something in his ear. Her husband Andrew was just a few inches away, staring in disbelief. I think he thought it was just a little crush. He was probably thinking, ‘I’ll let it go because it’s Simon Cowell’. But I’ve heard they argued a lot in private.

“Lauren is very booby and she’d brush up against Simon all the time. She was there to fetch him Kool menthol cigarettes and Sapporo beer. It was cringe-worthy to watch. But there was massive chemistry. We all knew it was more than flirting but no one wanted to rock the apple cart.

“We knew she stayed up the latest with him so they could slip back to his room. Sinitta was the one who said something. She warned Simon off her, saying she was married with a son. But Simon said he couldn’t help himself. He laughed things off the way he always does. I think he was very flattered by all the attention Lauren paid him.”

Why rock an apple cart when you’re on a boat?

PA-1161104

CAN we all agree that Jimmy Savile was convicted of not a single sex crime during his successful BBC career? Good. That is the only fact which we can all agree on without a shadow of doubt. Of course, the welter of evidence collated since his death says that Aunty’s charitable DJ lived a life as putrid as his rotting corpse. Indeed, rumours are that sex with dead bodies was not beyond his tastes.

Thom Yorke and Johnny Lynch entirely misunderstand Spotify and online music

17146398

THIS is one of those newspaper pieces where you have to check that the people are still living on the same planet as the rest of us. They’re talking about whether Spotify is paying enough in royalties to the musicians who produce the work. Yet they manage to miss the most basic point about the whole subject:

Spotify is selling a lie, though. In this post-Napster world, the pressure is on for new independent artists to have their music sit alongside massive acts – but we’re not getting anything back. We are told that it’s good exposure, and will lead to increased album and ticket sales, but this simply isn’t the case.

The best British Jaegers – the Pacific Rim challenge

WHAT if Pacific Rim was set in Britain? Yeah. Pacific Rim? As if. First off, no-one would have been able to stop sniggering. And second, well, the sniggering right. But let’s imagine. In the film the characters are called Jaegers. (Yeah. Like the middle-class, provincial fashion outlets). Almost all these Jaegers have two two-noun names created in a Tokyo language school randomiser: Brawler Yukon; Coyote Tango, Solar Prophet and the excellent Gipsy Danger.
