A Newsdump for 16 November 2011: From Britney's sweet dreams to a Kylie fan's expensive needs

  • November 16, 2011
  • Popjustice

» A Britney Spears music video of her per­form­ing to Marilyn Manson’s 'Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)' — made for the Circus tour — has 'surfaced' online. (Spin) It is less than three minutes long, so there is definite scope to edit it to Rebecca Ferguson’s defin­it­ive version.

» Katy Perry got caught out miming on a recorder to Jay‑Z’s 'Big Pimpin' which she thought was a flute anyway. (ABC News) But then she said on Twitter that it was all a big joke anyway so that's fine.

» Matt 'Christmas Card'le was living his serious 'n' authentic dream on Blue Peter yesterday. (BBC iplayer) He took part in a 'thumbs up thumbs down' X Factor con­test­ants game and made a pop-up Christmas tree card.

» In a shocking turn of events, Glastonbury won Best Major Festival at the UK Festival Awards last night. (Belfast Telegraph)

» Kelly Rowland would like to kiss Tinie Tempah ''under the mistletoe''. (The Sun) Let's hope he has trimmed.

» Justin Bieber was caught sticking not one, but two middle fingers up yesterday. (Daily Mail)

» Cheryl Cole is 'allegedly' pleased that Simon Cowell isn’t being very nice to Nicole Scherzinger on US X Factor. (STV)

» If Aston and Marvin from JLS doing thrusting hand­stands with their abs showing in slow motion is 'your thing', you will enjoy this video. (Sugarscape)

» 'Iz U' hitmaker Nelly will be opening his Audio Engineering school next Monday. (Music News)

» And finally, a Kylie Minogue fan will be feeling some kind of bliss (like in Kylie's hit song 'Some Kind Of Bliss') after they bought a pair of her red ''panties'' for £5000. (Pedestrian.tv)
