A Newsdump for August 8 2011: From Burke's bike obsession to Cowell's X Factor 'confession'

  • August 8, 2011
  • Popjustice

» First it was Ellie Goulding's jogging obsession. Now Alexandra Burke can't stop banging on about cycling. (British Cycling) Where next — I Blame Coco's secret javelin fetish?

» Beyonce will perform her fourth album '4' over four nights starting on the 4teenth of August. (Hollywood News)

» A 37 second snippet of a new Sky Ferreira song has emerged and it all sounds rather promising. Expect to hear the full version in 2014. (Soundcloud)

» Cher Lloyd may be at Number One but she's just a normal girl who won't change (though she might move to London later this year). (The Sun)

» Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift all won a lot of surf­boards over the weekend. (CBS News)

» Lady Gaga went to see Britney Spears in concert (E! Online) and blew her kisses. Meanwhile, her male alter ego, Jo Calderone, is back. (Metro) 

» Poor Example is trying to work out which is worse — a sewer rat or a drowned rat. (Twitter)

» It looks likely that Robbie Williams and Guy Chambers will work together again in the future, which is nice. (The Mirror)

» Radio 4 listeners don't like Madonna. (The Independent)

» And finally, Simon Cowell has set the record straight in regards to Cheryl Cole and this whole US X Factor business. Kind of. Well, not really. (Radar Online) Thanks Simon.

THAT WAS some of THE NEWS.
