A Newsdump for 10 August 2011: From Cher Lloyd's make-up views to Vampire Weekend's tragic news

  • August 10, 2011
  • Popjustice

» Cher Lloyd worries that she can't go outside without make-up on because the 'paps' will take her picture, but actually she'll do what she likes because they can't stop her. It's all very com­plic­ated this pop star lark. (Sugar Scape) 

» Apparently Gary Barlow wants to make an 'urban' charity single. (The Sun)

» The Jonas Brothers used to upset the elderly with their early morning sound­checks. (Contactmusic)

» Katy Perry seems to have lost half her voice. (Twitter)

» Female artists such as Adele, Lady Gaga and Beyonce are still being lumped together "for having a bit of chart success and a vagina." (The Independent)

» Susan Boyle made a surprise visit to a fan who proceeded to talk to her "about the turf which we had put in the shed earlier in the day." (The Mayo News)

» Kelly Rowland will appear on rapper Verse Simmonds' 'Sextape' because "she's hot as fish grease right now."(MTV) 

» Olly Murs got a lot of people excited in Titchfield Common. (The Western Wards Gazette)

» Christina Aguilera has recorded a lullaby to highlight world hunger in a video sponsored by the company that owns thousands of KFC res­taur­ants. (Bloomberg)

» And finally, it's with a heavy heart that we tell you that Vampire Weekend have been forced to cancel their only show of 2011. Be strong. (NME)

THAT WAS some of THE NEWS.
