What we've learned today:
1. Lily Allen is NOT quitting music now. Everyone everywhere just misread her
blog.
2. Madness will be playing the free Regent Street festival this Sunday, despite
Suggs' protestations to the contrary in a inteview with Qthemusic this
afternoon. The full ridiculous conversation will be online on Monday (28th).
3. In other Suggs news, the Madness frontman did an impromptu dance for QTheMusic's photographer in the middle of a Soho street.
3. Pussycat Dolls are NOT breaking up. Oh no. They are just having a rest and
recording separate albums, that¹s all.
4. Johnny Depp has directed Babybird¹s new video, which was shot on location at
Hatfield House, the Jacobean country pile in Hertfordshire.
5. Hackney Empire is to close for nine months following financial difficulties.
6. Red Hot Chili Pepper Chad Smith's new side-project is the all-instrumental
Bombastic Meatbats.
7. Britney Spears ran over a photographer¹s foot in 2007. He is looking to sue
for $195,000 in general damages, $16,533.59 in medical bills and $10,000 for
future foot problems.
8. Jay-Z smells of ³swagger². See: his appearance on the Oprah Winfrey show.
9. The White Stripes eat raw caribou, wear kilts and fire a cannon in their new
tour documentary Under Great White Northern Lights.
10. Michael Jackson believed he could ''heal Hitler".
Daily office lackey duty:
Buy the Associate Editor (Features) some pants from M&S.
Daily Office Highlight:
It's been all about Madness today. A signed copy of their 1982 compilation Complete Madness caused an office stampede towards the online desk. Well, almost. At least two people came over.
Dictionary-defying Tabloid Headline of the Day:
"Ste-roo-phonics" (The Sun)
Oasis-watch:
Someone logged into Oasis' Myspace. Surely this means a comeback is closer than ever.
On the office stereo:
- The Slits
- Jean Michel Jarre
- Mumford & Sons
