What has been going on in the world of news while we've all been asleep?

»
The Kaiser Chiefs are happy to let Girls Aloud win the Best British Group at the Brit Awards. ('Ricky's Group Hug' — Daily Star)

» Mark Ronson is not in any sort of rela­tion­ship with Amy Winehouse. In case you were wondering. ('Mark Ronson On Amy Winehouse And Brits' — The Mirror)

»
East 17 have got a new single coming out — and it isn't very good. ('East 17's New Single? F*** That!' — The Sun)

»
Not everyone loves The Ting Tings. :( ('The Ting Tings' — The Guardian)

»
You can now learn everything you ever needed to learn about the new Supergrass video. ('Amazing Facts About Supergrass' — The Guardian)

» Nick Kent is spec­u­lat­ing on the lifespan of Amy Winehouse. ('Why Amy Winehouse Is On The Rocks' — The Times)

»
Yazoo have reunited — which will be of interest to a very specific group of people who will all have a jolly good time at the concerts. ('Pop Duo Yazoo Reunite For UK Tour' — BBC)

»
In non-legal drama news, Britney covered Ace Of Base's 'All That She Wants' for no apparent reason a few years ago and it was shit. ('Britney Spears Covers Ace Of Base' — Just Jared)

Blimey.
