Despite Alex James’ upbeat assurance that all four members of Blur would reconvene in the studio this August, new reports reveal that nothing is yet set in stone. James has changed his tune slightly on the possible reunion activities: “There’s no point in doing it unless all of us want to because that was what […]

Prince to play Big Brother UK?
June 6th, 2007
I will admit I have watched Big Brother on more than one occasion. However, you couldn’t pay me to appear on the show in any capacity, even on my darkest day. As though it’s not weird enough that Prince is whoring around playing Target parking lots to hawk what is undoubtedly a gaudy scent, he’s […]
Update: Joy Division trainers almost set for production
June 6th, 2007
Turns out this very bizarre marketing strategy is becoming a reality because, you know, sporty footwear and Joy Division go hand in hand. New Balance plans to produce a line of Joy Division trainers with the artwork from its debut album Unknown Pleasures adorning the sole. They will be embossed with a Fact 10 logo […]

Michael Jackson still must have some cashed stashed away in his Strawberry Shortcake lunchbox because he has sicked his lawyers on Richard Altmore, who acquired 20,000 embarrassing items of Jackson’s, including nude portaits of little boys, skin whitening cream, and sex aides, as part of a bankruptcy case last year. Turns out Jackson’s frantic action […]
