Pop group splits and award ceremonies a-plenty
Is the Suga-rush over for Keisha?
Sad news for all you Sugababes fans. The only original band member still left in the band has hinted she may have solo plans up her sleeve. In a recent interview Keisha Buchanan said: "I think we need to take a break soon so that I can enjoy being me. People have said to me, 'Tell me about yourself,' and all I could say was, 'I'm a Sugababe.' That really upset me for a long time." Keish, did your mum never tell you too much sugar was bad for you!
JT top trumps, Madonna gets the bump
He’s wowed us all with his “sexyback” and now the suave superstar has seen off the likes of Robbie and Kanye to become the Best International Male and Best Pop Act at the MTV Europe awards. Meanwhile, Madonna, up for three awards, was given the cold shoulder and was even the butt of Avid Merrion’s latest joke! The prankster, dressed as Madonna, descended from a glitter ball surrounded by dwarves dressed up as orphans from around the world performing his own song Bung Up.
Cheryl and Char make up
Cheryl Tweedy has called time on her long (and quite frankly boring) battle with Charlotte Church. In an interview with the Mirror’s 3am girls, Cheryl said: “I've just had my nails cut so no more getting the claws into Charlotte Church. That's right, I want to call a truce with Char because she's just like me really.” The not-usually-so-diplomatic Cheryl added: “Come on Char, let's call it a day”. We wonder if ‘Char’ will accept the olive branch? Or more to the point, we wonder if we still care!
Teaser…
Which girly pop group looks set to be the next to reform?
Paris’s Halloween adventure
Paris Hilton knows how to live-it-up on Halloween. The singer dressed as a super-sexy bunny girl, donned red tights and a skimpy mini skirt and took herself off to no less then seven parties! And we can rest assured that the heiress was more cool then ghoul as she danced the night away at the glitzy Chateau Marmont bash surrounded by friends dressed as wrestlers and school girls.
Artic Monkey’s say Take That!
Take That may have received a massive applause after scooping the Idol award at the recent Q event this week, but not all guests were there to sing the bands praises. Firstly, Artic Monkey’s singer Alex Turner took his turn to hurl abuse at the them. He said: "I'm not old enough to remember a lot of the winners here but even I know that Take That were b*****ks." As if that wasn’t enough to annoy Mark Owen - who after hearing the outburst had to be held back by security - then it was Noel Gallagher’s turn to take a pop. He said: "One of Take That came up and asked if my brother Liam was here. I said 'You're lucky he isn't. If he saw a-ha going up on stage and then you, you can't imagine the mindless abuse.' Now, now children!
Kylie’s honorable man
Kylie has revealed her hunk of a boyfriend is the most honorable man she’s ever met! The pop diva has recently been frank about the trauma of her cancer treatment, but when the subject of French squeeze Olivier Martinez comes up Kylie can’t help but go doe-eyed. The singer said “He was always there, helping with the practical stuff and being protective” Somebody, a Kleenex, quick!
Robbie to collaborate with ABBA?
For all you Robbie fans out there – at the risk of getting your hopes up only to disappoint, we feel it our duty to inform you of a certain collaboration Mr. Williams is apparently considering with none other than seventies legends, ABBA! Yes, according to Anni-Frid Lyngstad (the brunette one from ABBA): “Robbie and I talked about doing an ABBA hit together.' However, Lyngstad continued: “He has not yet come back to me on that one” Watch this space guys!
And finally…
It’s Atomic Kitten that are set to reform! But hold onto your hats, it’s only for one night! The one-off concert, a benefit show for the Michael Shields appeal, will be held at the Liverpool Empire Theatre on December 4, 2006. The group has been off the pop radar now for two years, but we reckon that this means the girls have decided to ditch the solo careers, do what they do best and become “Whole Again.”
Next week’s highlights
With winter setting in and the nights getting darker we’re all in need of a little pick-me-up. And fear not, it’s ladies week next week as we see releases from the cream of the crop of female talent, including Christina Aguilera (Hurt), Madonna (Jump) Sugababes (Easy) and All Saints (Rock Steady). So batten down the hatches, turn up the volume, and you’ll be sure to have those temperatures rising again!
