Probably some z list celebrity totally bereft of any talent, but famous for being..........................famous? ( i'm guessing here)

As I'm sure most red blooded males would, but It doesn't alter the fact that she is probably a z list celebrity who will go the way of all the other winners of "reality" TV shows, straight down the toilet after a year ( if that)

She's better than your average singfest winner - but if she simply knocks out gruesome bombastic sub-Carey power ballads (as Cowell will no doubt insist) she won't be around for too long.


Will Young did good - he made some smart choices for songs and production of said songs and managed to shed the 'talent comp winner' image.

I'm not so sure. She's not quite my cup of tea but she has got talent and some heavyweight backing. The PR machine has started. She'll be big in 2008 and beyond.


But then again I could be wrong.

I am mildly obsessed by her current number one.

Not normally my cup of tea at all cant stand Carey, Houston etc.... but I am fascinated by the slightly dark and almost meaningless lyrics. So meaningless that they sometimes seem quite philosophical.


Either that or I am getting old and the company of small children has made my brain start to dissolve.


and she does give good warble.

Girls Aloud = Pretty, funny, humble, talented and just nice


Are you sure? How about living proof that if you throw enough real(if dubiously employed) talent - songwriters, producers, musicians, choreographers, stylists, PR etc. - at a bunch of decent looking girls who are willing to pole dance with their clothes on, that's enough to bring success in the pop business?

This is what the 'pop business' is - and always has been. I like pop. I enjoy it for what it is and don't confuse it with real, chinstrokey music (which I like as well).

    • tried the traditional beef empanada yesterday and it was amazing honestly, hotter and better than the other place (no offence!). I really don’t see the issue with having more than one of the same type of shop – we’ve got Indian restaurants, two supermarkets, two cheese shops, two pizza joints, even two paint shops! So I don’t get what all the fuss is about. Good food is good food, and there’s room for everyone.
    • I understand you access ancestry from any Southwark library computer. Or see the real post office directories in archive. 
    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
