    am i wrong?

  • The Guardian has an interesting article on Nico. Like who knew she was a psycho racist?
  • OK so I’m all about women having a positive body image no matter what size they are... but am I wrong to think this is a bit much? (For the record, I think it’s just as inappropriate when dudes or even those super-hot Pussycat Dolls don’t wear shirts either!)
  • Happy St Paddy's Day tomorrow... Just remember that everything green that goes down can also come up the same colour so prepare thyselves!

    public service announcement

    I saw The Pipettes last night. It was freakin fabulous! Adorable girls and SUCH an entertaining show. It really made me wanna stop eating, take singing lessons, choreograph dance routines and replace everyhing in my wardrobe with polka dots. It was THAT fun. I highly recommend you check them out if given the chance.

    boo on bono

    This was in today's Popbitch. I thought is was interesting enough to share.

    >> Re-branding Bono <<
    Charity doesn't always begin at home


    Vanity Fair have invited "pop-humanitarian" Bono to be guest editor of the July issue, to try and "rebrand Africa". Some magazines have been sharing some other facts about Bono:
    * In the year since it was founded, his Red campaign (licensed to Gap, Motorola, Apple etc) has raised $18 million - but companies have spent $100 million to market it.
    * Bono doesn't invest his own money in Red.
    * Apple sells a Special Edition U2 iPod. Its profits are not donated to Red.
    * U2 made $389m from the recent Vertigo tour. Its revenue was then funnelled through companies mostly registered in Ireland and structured to minimize taxes.
    * U2 moved its music publishing company to the Netherlands from Ireland in June 2006, six months before Ireland ended a tax exemption on musicians' royalty income.
    * Richard Murphy, adviser to lobbying group the Tax Justice Network, says "This is somebody who's exceptionally rich taking the opportunity to shift his tax burden to somebody else, but then asking governments around the world to spend that tax take in the way that he would like."

    "team canada: pain police"

  • There's ice falling from the CN Tower... So they've opted to completely shut down my route in to and out of the city. If it takes me more than 3 hours (that's how long it took me to get in to work this morning) to get home tonight I'm going to kick some CN Tower ass!
  • NME gave Arcade Fire's 'Neon Bible' a glowing review. So did the inferior snobs at Pitchfork. Oh and Stereogum reports how to band won't give in - not even to Paul Haggis.
  • The 15 year-old in me is kinda excited Placebo have announced a North American tour.
  • Pete Doherty's new low... Feeding joints to penguins. I wish I was making this up.
  • Kanye West: still an idiot.
