Blur To Reunite? Alex James Thinks So
Alex James - the Hugh Grant-haired, bass-playing, cheese-making lovey of Brit Pop superstars Blur (the pretty one who pursed his lips in every video) - has re-sparked rumours of Blur reuniting. True, this is perhaps the 27th time he personally has sparked the rumours of Blur reuniting. And, true, it’ll almost certainly be as fruitless as the rest of them. But still, anything to make people realise the Kaiser Chiefs are nothing but an insulting pretender to their throne is worth commenting on. It’s been five years since they released Think Tank; a kind of ‘half-good, half-wanky’ take on modern culture (a feeling encapsulated perfectly by the usage of a Banksy painting on the front cover – the King of ‘half-good, half-wanky’). Since then the Blur boys have all taken their own unique paths.

Celebrities Join Forces To Write Kid’s Book
Hecklerspray tried writing a book for children once.
It didn't get that far. Apparently - according to those 'publisher'-types - children just aren't interested in post-New Labour reinterpretations of Milton Friedman's economic theorising. Apparently that's all a bit 'complex' for them, and we'd be much better off with some predictable tract about a cat looking for a balloon. Christ almighty - no wonder they're all so stupid, the pram-dwelling little bastards.
God bless those celebrities, then, eh? God bless 'em. Better than us mere mortals in every way, they've decided to show us how it's done.
