The Newsdump, Mar 25 2008: From a useless feud to Estelle being rude

  • March 25, 2008
  • Popjustice

What has been going on in
the world of news?

» Calm down everyone — the world's most boring pop feud is
now OVER and The Mirror can reveal that Craig David and Jay Sean have
now 'kissed and made up'. That is just a figure of speech — none of the
singers in question are actually homo­sexual! ('Feuding Craig David and Jay Sean have kiss
and made up' — 3am)
 

» Converse shoes are quite good if you are a popstar. ('I'm With The Band' — The Guardian)
 

» The two chaps in Gnarls Barkley know some things about each
other, but don't know some other things about each other. ('How Well Do Gnarls Barkley Know Each
Other?' — The Guardian)
 

» Justin Timberlake will be paying a bit less tax this year -
he's given $200,000 to charity. ('Timberlake Donates $200,000' — Jam!
Showbiz)
 

» The Busted showcase and that time Sony rented out a room
and filled it with big pictures of Britney in an attempt to pretend she
was Of Cultural Significance are tra­gic­ally absent from an overview of
why The ICA is brilliant. ('In praise of the ICA, home of the
avant-garde' — The Independent)
 

» Beatles bigwig Neil Aspinall has died. ('Neil Aspinall: Beatles' friend and road
manager who became the boss of Apple' — The Independent)

 

» None of Bob Marley's music will appear in a film about Bob
Marley — no great loss as his music was almost entirely terrible. ('Bob Marley music will not be used in
doc­u­ment­ary' — Undercover)
 

» The Rolling Stones have figured out how to get a new record
deal: throw in some of the albums they made before they went shit. ('Rival labels look to give Stones shelter'
— FT)
 

» Estelle wants to fuck Chris Brown. ('Saucy Estelle' — Star Playlist)
 

Blimey.
